Stop calling Muhammad a warlord.❌ He was a prophet and head of state who led his people through wars. Being a leader who fought wars doesn't automatically make you a “warlord”. So where exactly is the warlord part?

In Japan, peace is an ancient vow between warlords. In Georgia, I tried to order extra peas with my fried chicken. My pronunciation slipped. I ordered extra peace. The waitress did not blink. She yelled to the counter: TABLE TWO NEEDS EXTRA PEACE! The cook turned off the country radio. The entire diner went dead silent for two minutes. A trucker whispered: God bless you, brother. I have eaten there fourteen times since. It is the quietest booth in the South.

It’s crazy when young Americans root for their country to lose, economically collapse, or die. You’re already struggling, too out of shape and low agency to have the capacity for warlording, and have no assets, so what’s the gameplan? Wouldn’t that just make your lives worse

🇺🇸 Christian Nationalist Jake Lang spent 4 years in prison in the name of patriotism and protecting the U.S. Constitution. Today, he ripped up a copy of the Quran: “A book that a demon translated through a warlord… this is what New York thinks about Islam. Send them back. Get out of our city.” So, freedom of religion is okay as long as it’s some form of Judaism or Christianity? Weird logic from a self-proclaimed patriot. Writer: Jamie

Genghis Khan built the largest contiguous land empire in history on a rule that sounds obvious now and was radical then: promote whoever performs, regardless of where they came from. Tribe, bloodline, and past loyalty meant nothing to him. Skill meant everything. He made this literal. Jebe, one of his most feared generals, started out as an enemy soldier who put an arrow through Genghis Khan’s own horse in battle. Rather than execute him, Genghis Khan recruited him on the spot, because a man who could shoot that well and fight that hard was worth more alive and loyal than dead and wasted. Subutai, arguably the greatest field commander of the entire Mongol conquest, came from a family of blacksmiths with no noble blood at all. In an era when every throne in Europe and Asia handed out command by birthright, a herder’s son could rise to general under the Khan purely by winning. Compare that to how modern states fill their top jobs. Cabinet posts go to donors and party loyalists. Central bank seats go to whoever spent the most years inside the right university-to-government pipeline, never to whoever priced risk best. Regulatory agencies get run by people who never built or ran the thing they now regulate. Competence is optional, connections are not. A thirteenth-century warlord on the steppe figured out that results should decide who leads. Governments with access to every tool of modern administration still cannot manage it. The market punishes incompetence with bankruptcy. The state rewards it with a bigger office and a longer tenure.
