    The core of the cognitive disconnect you are demonstrating lies in your attempt to impose your own interpretative “rules” on the discussion, using sarcasm as a way to frame anarchism in a narrow, dismissive sense. By doing this, you overlook the very principle I was explaining: in an anarchist framework, any guidelines or “rules” emerge from a collective, consensual process, not from one individual’s authority or interpretation.

    In short, the disconnect is you fail to see your attempt to control the tone and meaning of the discussion runs counter to the very idea of consensus-driven participation in anarchism.

    While rules can exist in anarchism, they function as shared, agreed-upon guidelines aimed at maintaining mutual respect and cooperation, rather than as laws enforced through authority.

    In other words, your distant cousins are here. And by your rules, we get a vote in the rules.

    Perhaps you should read up.







  • Iranian cyber actors’ use of brute force and other techniques to compromise organizations across multiple critical infrastructure sectors, including the healthcare and public health (HPH), government, information technology, engineering, and energy sectors.

    It seems they’ve abstracted the term “critical infrastructure” to refer to the organizations that perform critical functions within society, not necessarily the networks running nuclear power plants.

    But also, commercial entities don’t exactly have access to NSA encryptors… so your alternative is to disconnect everything. And that’s not feasible.

    The difference between officers and enlisted (even enlisted “officers”) is well understood in the public domain. Just google the term “military officer”. You won’t find a reference to NCOs.

    From the AI:

    Here are some things to know about military officers: Pay grades Officer pay grades range from O-1 to O-10.

    Army’s top-level page on “officers”: https://www.goarmy.com/careers-and-jobs/find-your-path/army-officers

    From the wiki:

    Broadly speaking, “officer” means a commissioned officer, a non-commissioned officer (NCO), or a warrant officer. However, absent contextual qualification, the term typically refers only to a force’s commissioned officers, the more senior members who derive their authority from a commission from the head of state.

    This just takes very little research for anyone writing an article on the subject. No, I don’t expect the laymen to automatically know the difference between an NCO and a commissioned officer, but we are talking about a journalist here. I suppose if you want to lower your standards for journalism, fine.
