Paying for poacher-scalps will rapidly eliminate poachers.

OK. So…. In the end, Testimonialism is not all that complicated. Sensibility (intelligibility) and logic consist of constant relations. Constant relations provide commensurability. To say two statements are commensurable and consist of constant relations is a tautology. Dimension: a series of terms (states) consisting of constant relations, organized in a scale…

1 – Markets, like ‘property rights’ require insurers, and production on speculation of demand under inflexible prices. 2 – Trade requires only normative property, and production to satisfy estimated demand under flexible prices. 3 – Exchange requires only possession, and neither prices or anticipated demand. Demand always exists, whether under exchange, trade, or market.…

—“So the military has a choice: engage in extraction, or protect the capitalists ability to engage in fraud, or protect the court’s ability to administer natural law.”–Zachary Miller A militia has no choice but the court. An Army has the choice of the first two. An empire has only the first.

– Domination by Priestly Caste. (lies) – Domination by Warrior Class. (violence) – Dominance by Capitalist Class (bribery) – Dominance by Judicial Class (reciprocity)

I’ve been thinking… about the oft used statement “regression to the mean” that is used as rebuttal to comments of mixing or diluting ethnic gene pools. If nature regresses to the mean, doesn’t it conversely progress to the mean? What mean does it progress to? Does nature create a new mean? Or do we need…

There exists only one form of meritocracy and that is the common, natural law of reciprocity we call ‘tort’. Western man was destroyed when the universal law of torts: the common natural law of reciprocity, was surrendered to the lies of democracy, capitalism, marxist-socialism, and postmodernism.

Charles Murray, one of America’s most influential social policy thinkers, has come out with a widely discussed new book called Coming Apart: The State of Whi…

The host? What is that? It is the militia: every man able to fight.

You blame (((them))) for the same reason you blame a woman for her lack of agency and indulgence of gossip (see scolds), or dog for its ill manners, or the rat for it’s pestilence. All beasts pursue their evolutionary strategy. The question is what does one do about it? Yet (((they))) are trivial to…

Fixed pie thinking is parasitic, just as pastoralists are parasitic thinkers and agrarians are productive thinkers.

In the Western Pagan and Pagan-Christian ethic, we do not say people are equal. We do not say we should be tolerant. We say only that we must exhaust all reasonable attempts to cooperate – just as we would our own kin – before treating others unequally, and intolerantly. This is our faith. It’s…

by Michael Churchill NFLX and TSLA look insane to me. Not at all clear to me that there is any sort of calc that has TSLA with normal gross margins. NFLX capitalizes content costs, which is like Caterpillar capitalizing the cost of making tractors. Buying/making content is cost of goods sold — not…

In the studies I have seen, the average man experiences 20% decline in the standard of living by trading income for sex, companionship, and residency with a woman. This amounts to the average free capital generated by all men (about 1/5). It requires about 20% free capital for humans to change ‘routines’. Men are a…

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY “TRUE”? A commensurable common language consists of constant relations. In response to any substantive innovation, we falsify some relations, redefine others, and create others. Which in turn requires falsification of some existing terms, redefinition of others, and the creation of yet still others. Yet, what is the…

Remington will go upside down relatively soon. Colt is still trying to recover from Bankruptcy. But the underlying issue is fairly simple: all technical innovation in firearms has been coming (as expected) from belgian, german, and austrian engineers. The most popular weapon in the states is effectively open sourced (the AR15) – so much so…

(via Vincent Wolters at Seeking Alpha) TSLA gross margin excluding R&D is comparable to that of competitors. (~25%) TSLA SG&A per revenue is higher than that of competitors and just about wipes out gross profits. There is no indication of economies of scale in spite of increased production. Expansion will…

Curt Doolittle do we have a method for individuals to self-assess their personality type? Or is this a work in progress?

—“Ukrainians need to understand one simple thing. As a result of Maidan, we succeeded in replacing a foreign power that was very effective, especially when it came to the interests of thugs and the Kremlin, with one that was not particularly effective but ours.”—-

Synthetic/Conflationary/Consensus/Solipsistic (integrated female brain) –vs– Analytic/Deflationary/Truth/Autistic. (compartmentalized male brain) Synthetic/Analytic : similarities vs differences Conflationary/Deflationary: summarize vs atomize Consensus/Truth : Social value bias. Solipsistic/Autistic: consequence of extremes These are consequential differences of the male and female brain extremes, with most of us functioning with a bias one side or the other…

DEFINITION: “INTELLECTUAL” (Idea Worker, Seller of Ideas) —“Curt, define the term ‘intellectual’ pls.”— Francesco Principi “Idea-workers that exercise influence on policy makers and public opinion, but are not directly accountable for the results.” “Those whose careers are built on the creation and dissemination of ideas have played a role in many…

1) Leftists beliefs are linked to Psychoticism. 2) Leftists reversed the data and published the oft-cited falsehood that linked it with conservatism. 3) It’s taken five years to correct it, even though the error was obvious. https://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/funniest-retraction-ive-ever-seen-1 Now, given that leftism (lower agency, greater consensus, higher signaling) is an expression of the female…
