(FB 1546126631 Timestamp) You will be struck by our New Constitution in that it includes what others do not: Definitions as constants, variables, and types, and that there is far more definition, constant, variable and type, than their is prescription. This constitution states what is and what must be. What one then does with that…

(FB 1546125351 Timestamp) Ruling, Governing, and Teaching are three different strategies. Ruling is a military and judicial occupation. Governing a middle class occupation. Teaching an academic occupation. You get a priest, communist, or politician in that distribution ANYWHERE then you’re people are being deceived.

(FB 1546118155 Timestamp) I might err, but as I understand it, at about six generations all individuality is lost, and we are identifiable as members of an ancestral pool only. And that ancestral pool is determined by the present location of ancestral pools.

(FB 1546116124 Timestamp) Reminder for newbs. I teach argument. In keeping with it, I have preserved this feed as a meme-free zone. If you post one, all you are doing is making me spend time deleting. Yes, I tolerate certain illustrated quotes etc. But I just delete that which is not argument. -thanks.

(FB 1546103947 Timestamp) On suspicion, I’ve been watching videos of people surprised by their DNA results. And it’s really obvious they’re trying to spread multiculturalism rather than the history of defeat conquest and extermination evident in peoples genetics. If you understand the basic races and how they evolved and that all the data says is…

(FB 1546102610 Timestamp) JOSLIN ON CONTINUING THE LONGEST RUNNING SYSTEM OF MODERN GOVERNMENT by Bill Joslin I have an admission, a confession… I still, after all these years, see classical liberalism and the anglo-enlightenment as a shining jewel in history; rare and valuable. But it was flawed. The flaw pertains to reifying critical concepts of…

(FB 1546102380 Timestamp) One bit of frequent advice is that if we grow to quickly the idiot factor will be impossible to control. I agree with this proposition, but it can be offset by changing what we talk about as we expand: early entrants are activists that need technical content. Ordinary people simply want to…

(FB 1546102000 Timestamp) Humor: when the neanderthal data first came out, I received quite a few insults in pseudo-argumentative form from east asians about western man’s neanderthal content – only to lately discover it’s east asians with the greater presence of neanderthal genes. Ergo. Be careful what you say when the data first comes out.

(FB 1546101347 Timestamp) One BEGS for Liberty by permission. One FORCES sovereignty at the point of a spear, tip of an arrow, blade of a sword, and barrel of a gun. That’s the difference between failed beggars for liberty and successful warriors for sovereignty.

(FB 1546100286 Timestamp) Let me help you. It is a disadvantage to me, to the work, and to the movement to be associated with ‘those who have failed’. The more mainstream we become, the less value in fringe players. So no, leaving behind the fringe is part of the strategy. Not getting their attention. Propertarianism…

(FB 1546201719 Timestamp) Libertarians always think small. War is a profitable exercise. For some of us it is our favorite occupation. The problems arise from ruling, colonizing, and commingling. But the lessons of history are unambiguous: the wholesale removal of people from territory is always and everywhere the optimum business venture.
