Demarcation between Aristocratic Egalitarianism (Male Insurance) and Pathological Altruism (Female Insurance)
Curt Doolittle I tend to view western aristocratic egalitarianism as demanding respect for property in exchange for the franchise of Liberty. David Mondrus “aristocratic egalitarianism” vs “pathological altruism”. The demand of respect for property in exchange for liberty is the difference. Curt Doolittle Let me think about that because it is insightful. Hmmm. Is that…
The Competition Between Truth And Lies
EUGENIC (truth) vs DYSGENIC (lies) Reasonable Philosophy Rational Philosophy Analytic Philosophy Scientific (Operational) Philosophy Tradition and Mysticism Theological Philosophy Pseudoscience and Postmodernism (What lie will they invent next?)
Ok. So yes. There are a few philosophers I’d recommend.
OK. SO PHILOSOPHERS? THERE ARE SOME. Aristotle (almost-science)(structure of philosophy) Bacon (empiricism) Locke (property as unit of commensurability) Smith(econimics) Hume (epistemology) Jefferson(constitutional construction), Darwin(evolutionary processes), Durkheim(sociology), Haidt (social psychology) Pareto(economic sociology), Spencer (operationalism), Hayek(law is our social science) and Nietzsche(aesthetics) These men create a pretty good corpus. But they didn’t solve the problem of truth,…
Every Tribe Can Transcend Under Aristocracy

Sep 17, 2016 1:43pm So here is the central issue: ++Voluntary exchange++ vs –Decidability by law– ++Positive epistemology++ vs –negative epistemology– So rather than reason how we might do something as individual thinkers I ask HOW CAN WE CALCULATE SOMETHING by voluntary exchanges within the constraints of natural law. In other words, how do we…
We Evolve A Reductions in Frictions and Costs
Just as we evolve property from common to private; Just as we evolve the suppression of parasitism from criminal, to fraudulent, to free riding, to conspiratorial, to warfare; Just as we evolve argument from mysticism to reason, to rationalism, to empiricism, to testimonialism; We also evolve truth from justificationary, to moral, to legal, to scientific,…
The Next Great Leap
Sep 17, 2016 5:54pm ( edited by William L. Benge ) THE NEXT GREAT LEAP 🙂 “The next great leap in human civilization is not technology. it’s morality and law: truth telling. It will be as great a leap as science has been.” THE BAD AND THE UGLY — BUT NOT THE GOOD “And likewise…
What Does Doolittle Think About Pseudoscience?
–“Brian Gant: I’ve had this internal argument for years.

How Is Propertarianism Not Another Fantasy?
—“So Curt. How is this not a new Rothbardian ideal fantasy? Ie which government specifically are we speaking of taking over, and when we do, how many people do we stack like cordwood for jaywalking?”— Jonathan Page I can’t respond to all of that in a single comment.But I’ll jump ahead and take a guess…
Is Bigamy A ‘Hangable Offense’?
—“You speak from time to time of hanging malcontents, and bigamy in England was originally a capital crime. Could I be hung for bigamy?”— I would love to say yes just for fun. But bigamy is not a violation of natural law, but of public contract for the production of a commons. —“But if consenting adults…
The Law Of Nature Is The Law Of God.
It is far harder to give moral men a license to kill than to avoid killing. But once possessed of that license and in the absence of fear of retaliation by his peers, and with the opportunity of accolades and status from his peers, the moral man is an unstoppable warrior. I have been endeavoring…
Q&A: “Curt: What Defines Middle Class?”
—“What defines the middle class according to you? I go by the British definition” — Dawid Wella The common definition is: —“the social group between the upper(not working) and working (laboring) classes, including professional and business workers and their families(managerial).”— I would use: ***”People who calculate, organize, manage, production, distribution, and trade.”*** Because I think…
Western Truth Vs The Lie Of Social Construction
Aug 22, 2016 9:36am (important piece) (synthesizing) (readable) —“Constructionism involves the creation of a product to show learning. It is believed by constructivists that representations of physical and biological reality, including race, sexuality, and gender, as well as tables, chairs and atoms are socially constructed. Kant, Garns, and Marx were among the first to suggest…

When We Say “Scientific” What Operations Are We Referring To?
WHEN WE SAY “SCIENTIFIC” WHAT OPERATIONS ARE WE REFERRING TO? (important) (scientific method) (informational commons) It’s not the subject matter, nor the method of inquiry, nor the method of hypothesizing that’s classifiably scientific or that places any limits on what we call scientific investigation. ORIGINATION OF HYPOTHESIS: INCREASED INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO PERCEPTION We can produce…
August Quotes

Morals being simply a set of rules that…
Soros v Hayek and Why.
Aug 22, 2016 2:48pm SOROS V HAYEK, AND WHY When where Soros disagrees with Hayek he relies on the criticism of the rational actor hypothesis, saying that people do not in fact act this way. But here again we have Hayek as a social scientist seeking rule of law, versus Soros as a financier seeking…
We Put The West in Western Civilization
WHO PUT THE WEST IN WESTERN CIVILIZATION? WE KNOW ALREADY. …. WE DID. AT OUR BIRTH. Aug 22, 2016 5:29pm (here is the narrative you’re looking for) 1) The origins of the uniqueness of western civilization are something we have known for nearly a century.

A Critique of Philosophy
A CRITIQUE OF PHILOSOPHY: AN ANALYSIS OF IDENTITY AS AN EXAMPLE OF THE PROBLEMS OF RATIONAL PHILOSOPHY VS EMPIRICAL SCIENCE AND TESTIMONIALISM (very juicy good stuff in this post) We demonstrate that we consider our lives our property (we retaliate gainst loss of monopoly control over them). We demonstrate that we consider our bodies our…
Propertarianism for the Practical
By William Butchman —“My chief interest in Propertarianism is practical. I want to know the truth so that I can use it to help my people. I am not interested in the truth outside of my genetic self interest. I am not a good man attempting to do good in the universe. I am a…
Overview of Propertarianism’s Main Themes
OVERVIEW OF PROPERTARIANISM’S MAIN THEMES Quick Note Turned into a Post. If you watch (1) the intertemporal division of perception, (2) the intercultural division of perception (circumpolar people), and (3) listen to this podcast (civilizational strategies); And if you catch that consistently across the personal, interpersonal, national, and civilizational strategies, that I CONSISTENTLY try to…
Spectrum: Signals of Belief Claims
THE SPECTRUM OF SIGNALS OF BELIEF CLAIMS. We’ve been discussing this in my corner of the universe, and I tend to work with the following terminological sequence: Faith = recognition that you’re position is indefensible, but you report that you hold some position. Belief = a ‘signal’ in the report that you might decide in…
Yes. We Domesticated Ourselves. We’re Just Another Animal.
IT”S NOT LIKE I”M GONNA WIN A POPULARITY CONTEST FOR THIS LITTLE BIT OF TRUTH. You know, it’s not like if I walk around telling people ‘Well, we learned how to herd females, and domesticate one another so that we could cooperate more effectively, and that there isn’t any difference between now and then other…
Tips On Writing Propertarian Arguments
USE ACTIVE VOICE 1) Learn one ‘aggressive’ or ‘honest’ technique: “Active Voice not Passive Voice” ‘John threw the ball’ not ‘the ball was thrown by john’. Read “passive voice” on the internet. This is where you’re having trouble with operational language. USE FINANCIAL AND CRIMINAL, NOT EXPERIENTIAL AND MORAL TERMINOLOGY 2) make sure any MORAL…
State Healthcare is Not A Problem Unless It’s A Monopoly
Aug 24, 2016 11:35am The problem is MONOPOLY healthcare. As long as private care and hospitals are available, and the wealthy are paying for time and customer service, they will continue to pay for research and development, and the STATE healthcare can provide commodity services. The problem is not that this arrangement wouldn’t provide better…
