To say that something is “moot” means that it has nor been Decided. Please note the capital letter. When Northern Europe was conquered it was gently convinced, by stakes and torture, that a thing was Decided when somebody in a robe Decided it.
Men in Northern Europe wore pants. Middle Easterners wore robes. Popes and kings wore robes. So when King Harald imposed “Christianity” on Norway, a group escaped to Iceland where they “invented” representative government, that is, they took the moot with them.
It is not accidental that “scholars” wore robes. Each Authority, as it gained power, wore its Middle Eastern robes. You simply did not Decide an issue unless you had a robe on.
The Constitution was written by men in pants. It is not accidental that today the Constitution consists of nine lawyers in robes.

Yes, and “Let the orient worship profound sounding horseshit”.
There is no parrying tyranny. You simply have to take your marbles, intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally and leave the game.
But you don’t leave it to worship hippy lettuce.
You leave it to work on weapons that will bring your enemies down. Those who escaped to Iceland left the game to hang their hat on leaders that where actually worthy of leadership. That was their weapon.
It takes very specific kinds of know how to make the rubber hit the road in an organization.
This is our enemies’ biggest weakness. Being worshipers of profound sounding horseshit, they are clueless about how you actually organize getting things done.
And this is the real reason why Mommy Professor and the black robed judiciary can be taken down.
