  • The Inquisition Focused on Ex Jews and Ex Muslims

    —“The Spanish and Portuguese inquisitions focused particularly on the issue of Jewish anusim and Muslim converts to Catholicism, partly because these minority groups were more numerous in Spain and Portugal than in many other parts of Europe, and partly because they were often considered suspect due to the assumption that they had secretly reverted to…

  • The Price of Truth

    You know, truth is merciless, and the deflation and criticism of both mercies and taboos painful for all. There are very few of us who can tolerate investigating the truth. There are very few who will tolerate observing it. I would prefer no one who knows me personally in real life read what I do,…

  • They are simply inferior. It’s not complicated.

    Truth is the providence of aristocracy, those of ability and of agency. It is not that those who cannot tolerate truth are simply different – it is that they are inferior.

  • Finishing up The Single Motherhood Topic

    I wanted to use the single motherhood subject to test how many people rely on how little data, vs how few people went out and did more than cursory data collection. As a sensitive (controversial) topic with high causal density it’s an example of a ‘hard problem’. 1 – The data that fathers make better…

  • They’re pets that lack house-training.

    (humor) Equality? Are you kidding? They’re pets that lack house-training. They should have owners, licenses, rabies and other disease shots, and be neutered like all other domesticated animals, and be subject to strict import regulations. 😉

  • The Tax That Matters

    The only tax I care you pay is FULL INTEGRATION.

  • Semi Domesticated Animals

    (humor) I mean, if you can’t integrate with Aristotelianism, truth telling regardless of the consequences, reciprocity in all things, duty of the commons, self sufficiency, and the absolute nuclear family, then you’re just a semi domesticated animal that doesn’t have to turn around in a circle three times before lying down. … And yes, I…

  • Parrots can speak. That doesn’t mean we give them legal standing, citizenship, and voting rights.

    (humor) I mean, domesticated animals are fine – assuming that you can take over their dominance hierarchy and train them, keep them in a pen, control their reproduction, put them to useful work, and/or eat them. Otherwise their wild animals. you’re just frequently confused that some wild animals can use some form of language. The…

  • Ragnar Redbeard and Nietzsche: Introductions to Aristocratic Ethics of Propertarianism

    —“Have you ever read Might is Right? I’m almost finished it. I’d like to know your thoughts on the topic. Can you explain how it relates to Propertarianism?”— Kelly Wilson Ragnar Redbeard (Arthur Desmond) – Might is Right Nietzche: – The Birth of Tragedy – The Geneology of Morals – Beyond Good and Evil –…

  • —“Only the autodidacts are free.”— Nassim Nicholas Taleb,

    —“Only the autodidacts are free.”— Nassim Nicholas Taleb, I would never have been ‘permitted’ to develop Propertarianism (Natural Law) in the academy. The simple reasons that (a) interdisciplinary phd’s are nearly impossible, (b) taking 10+ years to solve a hard problem is unacceptable. (c) publishing along the way to a solution only serves to anchor…

  • How Propertarianism Would Judge Hitler’s Germany’s Relocation Policy

    (ANSWER TO A “BAIT POST” – BTW: I BLOCKED THE INDIVIDUAL WHO REQUESTED IT.) SOME RADICAL LEFTIST ASKED ME HOW PROPERTARIANISM WOULD JUDGE HITLER’S GERMANY’S RELOCATION POLICY It was a dishonest attempt to bait hate speech. I don’t do hate speech. Ever. I do Science and Natural Law. Here is the Answer: (a) That high…

  • He who can destroy a thing, owns a thing- all else is permission

    Why do you deserve to share this world with us? He who can destroy a thing, owns a thing- all else is permission. The first question of politics is why I and mine (if we can) do not kill you and yours and take your stuff. The only answer is that it is more beneficial…

  • It Failed Everywhere Else, so….

    (((They))) have this strange intuition that what failed in the levant, and has failed everywhere else, will succeed in the west, if (((They))) only remove territorial, normative, and genetic barriers.

  • No, EQ Is Not a Thing, But….

    WHEREAS Intelligence is a Thing Personality Traits are a Thing. (Conscientiousness and Agreeableness and Neuroticism in particular) The Solipsism vs Empathy vs Autism spectrum is a Thing. Class Behaviors are a Thing. As such it’s (EQ) a questionable proxy for personality traits rather than intelligence. And (I am in the camp) that we should treat…

  • If You Would Be Sovereign

  • The Evolution of Movements

    Every movement starts as fringe, and edgy, attracting novelty junkies, dysfunctionals, rebels, and malcontents. And if it has any meat to it, increasingly upgrades from edge cases to some position in the hierarchy of argumentative structures that we call ideologies, philosophies, and institutional models. What we should expect to see, as we move up this…

  • Sovereignty is something you practice.

    —“Sovereignty is not something you give away to others, it’s something you practice. If peers practice equivalent sovereignty, institutions emerge between you so that in practice, you respect the sovereignty of others. But nobody rides for free.”—Simon Ström

  • Women Rule only When Men Can No Longer Reach Consensus – It Is a Death Knell

    From: The Fate of Empires by Arthur John Hubbard (via Noah J Revoy) “An increase of women in public life has often been associated with national decline. The later Romans complained that, although Rome ruled the world, women ruled Rome. In the tenth century, a similar tendency was observable in the Arab Empire, the women…

  • Answering a Presumptuous Critic 

    (From Original Post: https://www.facebook.com/curt.doolittle/posts/10156430444672264) Lets get posturing out of the way first: I can judge from your argument and sentence structure I have somewhere in the vicinity of 15-30 IQ points on you (at a minimum), from your activity stream, far greater agency, have built multiple technology companies of scale, and am in the process…

  • Understanding Deflationary Truth

    (Core Concept) (Attn: SG Simmons) || Ordinary Language Grammar > Deflationary Truth > Performative Truth > *Testimonial Truth*. Deflationary Theories of Truth —“That assertions of predicate truth of a statement do not attribute a property called “truth” to such a statement.”— In other words, “I smell the scent of violets” has the same content as…

  • For Newbies. (intro Help)

    https://naturallawinstitute.com/2018/03/29/propertarianism-core-concepts-by-eli-harman/ OK, so, Propertarianism is a name we are sort of stuck with simply because of the degree of awareness. Operationally, it consists of: 1) The explanation of the reason for western rapidity of adaptation and evolution in the ancient and modern worlds. And the conflict of civilizations between the Masculine/True/Eugenic(Aristocratic/European), and Feminine/False/Dysgenic(Theological/Semitic), And how…

  • The Left creates a Herd.

    The Left creates a Herd. The Right creates alliances of Tribes. Via positiva as needed for each Tribe Via negativa is how we cooperate across Tribes. Natural Law has no say on positiva (what do do) Only upon what we must NOT do, to preserve our tribes. Our name is Legions. And we are many.…

  • Define Operationalism

    OPERATIONALISM? —“Define operation(alism)”— Let Me Google That For You: Scientific Method -> …. Operational Definition -> …. …. Operationalism (Physical Sciences) / …. …. Operationism (Psychology) / …. …. Intuitionism (Mathematics) / …. …. Praxeology (Economics) ie: “Actions”. See Wiki for simple versions, and Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy for advanced versions. HOWEVER, since all science…

  • The Quality of Parenting Is Determined by Values

    —“I don’t think there is any non-material advantage that high-IQ brings to raising children. The advantages to IQ are all endogenous. Working-class folks with excellent values are going to out-parent upper-middle class couples who are non-present and ‘compensate’ via indulgence. The quality of parenting is determined by values.“— Aaron Kahland
