September 18th, 2018 9:38 AM THE WEST IS ALREADY AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN POLYTHEISTIC [W]e have polytheism already: mythology, literature, history, biography, law, engineering, economics, medicine, science, mathematics, and logic. It is precisely the deconflation into markets of specialization and the different explanations of the universe and our relation to it, that provide that polytheism.…
Regarding Gans’ Generative Anthropology
September 18th, 2018 9:22 AM REGARDING GANS’ GENERATIVE ANTHROPOLOGY [S]omeone just asked, so for those that are interested in such things, Eric Gans’ Generative Anthropology, is compatible and non-contradictory with Propertarianism. It is however a description of potential (cooperation on policy) not one of limits (resolution of differences by law), and it is narrative (literary…
Women Joyful and Men Noble
September 18th, 2018 9:13 AM WOMEN JOYFUL AND MEN NOBLE by Megan K. Usui I imagine for most men that they love their women most, not when they are making them a sammie, although that’s nice and all but they love them most when they see their beauty and this is usually when a woman…

September 18th, 2018 9:09 AM Memories. Looking at our wedding photos from Scotland back in the day: Allora: “I didn’t realize how much shorter you were than me until I saw these photos…” Me: “Ha.

There Is No Postmodern Conservatism
[T]here is no postmodern conservatism -only adoption of leftist technique of ridicule, shaming, rallying, straw manning, superstition, moralism, psychologism, pseudoscience, and the denial of truth and reason. Confusing Empirical Method with Intuitionistic Justification Claims of Postmodern conservatism are an error that confuses the universal fictionalism of the left, with the universal empiricism of the right.…
We Don’t Really Use the Term ‘Free Will’,
[W]e don’t really use the term ‘Free Will’, because it is an ideal, and so tainted that it’s meaningless. We use the terms Agency (via positiva) and Sovereignty (via negativa) and Reciprocity (via voluntary, productive), and we state operationally what those mean.
Position on Arranged Marriages?
—“Are you in favor of arranged marriages? I am, but I would love to hear your take”— Erik Lukovsky [N]o, because I am not in favor of selling children into slavery for money which is what occurs all too often.

Ownership of Our Lines
[W]e no longer own our children. If we owned our children still, we could influence their marriages. If we owned our government still, we could end alien immigration. We own neither and therefore no longer own self-determination of our line or our kin. As such you ask me to do what I cannot in the…

Propertarianism: The Central Idea
September 17th, 2018 10:22 AM PROPERTARIANISM: THE CENTRAL IDEA (from the introduction) The central idea is the completion of the scientific method, and its application to the entire spectrum of human knowledge.

Mapping Propertarianism to Philosophy and The Sciences
September 17th, 2018 10:21 AM MAPPING PROPERTARIANISM TO PHILOSOPHY AND THE SCIENCES (from the introduction) While propertarianism serves as an anti-philosophy system of thought, we rely upon the traditional hierarchy of categories: SOVEREIGNTY: -From Reals to Feels- Metaphysics:..Vitruvianism: Man is the measure of all things man (cog. sci.)Psychology:…Acquisitionism: Man acquires and defends.Sociology:….Compatibilism: Intertemporal division of…
The First Complete Statement of The Philosophy of Western Civilization
September 17th, 2018 10:20 AM THE FIRST COMPLETE STATEMENT OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION (from the Introduction) The Heroic Civilization. For reasons we are unsure of, the west combined bronze horse and wheel, and in doing so transformed from egalitarian earth worshippers to hierarchical sun worshippers. From submissive to heroic. Sovereignty. But because of…

No, Supernatural Authoritarian Religion Is Not Best – and The Externalities Are Horrid.
September 16th, 2018 10:40 AM NO, SUPERNATURAL AUTHORITARIAN RELIGION IS NOT BEST – AND THE EXTERNALITIES ARE HORRID. [T]he cognitive bias of cherrypicking is everywhere.
