We Differ in Priority Not in Purpose
Apr 22, 2020, 6:21 PM My argument is that the faithful cannot abandon belief, and the rational cannot adopt faith – and that the tendency in favor of either is demonstrably genetic as well as cultural in origin. We cannot legislate belief or unbelief. So all we can do is trade. Traditionally european civilization has…
Dark Forces
The eternal war of men of mind against the dark forces of time, ignorance, folly, scarcity, and the red queen.
Our Gods
Apr 24, 2020, 11:23 AM Of course. Don’t be ridiculous. Because Tyr(Tiwas,Zeus) was the god of our people. Odin the god of the aristocracy, Thor(Mars) the Militia (Men). And the Epic Cycle our Mythos. Sol invictus-Mithras didn’t have time to coalesce. Jesus evolved as the god of the weak, slaves, women, and children. Nature’s spirits…

The Dependence on Land and The Variation in Group Strategies
Apr 24, 2020, 12:15 PM –“I was working the rather large winter garden this afternoon I have planted with my father. Thinking about the respective Peloponnesian and Delian strategies. It got me thinking about two things. Agricultural productivity / output and the concurrent effervescence of commercial activity, economic growth, and thus civilisational expansion (consider this…
Money Proper
Apr 24, 2020, 12:21 PM The term “Note(s)” (debt instrument), like “Money” (medium of exchange), and “Currency” (“in circulation”) has been abused. Technically, money proper must consist of commodity money. All else is a commodity money substitute: – Scrip ( currency substitute that replaces legal tender. a form of credit and documentation of debt)> –…
The Cognitive Origins of Conspiracy and Oppression Theories
A conspiracy theory requires that one attribute incentives that fail the test of occam’s razor, almost always because the individual is a social outlier, and has limited sensitivity to, experience with, or knowledge and understanding of how people operate in large groups. Conspiracy theory is the equivalent of dunning kruger failure of personal assessment, projected upon…
The State as A Monopoly on Violence Is Evidently False.
Apr 24, 2020, 2:11 PM The westphalian peace resulted in the demand between states that the state maintain a monopoly on violence. The muslims do the opposite and ended the westphalian peace. The state cannot in fact and never has had, a monopoly on violence. It still doesn’t. It just tries. What defines a…
Strictly Constructed Natural Law Jurisprudence.
When you go to law school you do not learn what we teach here: strictly constructed natural law jurisprudence. Most of what you learn is procedure, statute (legislation), and case law (examples). Or “How to work the process”. That’s why P makes sense to you. Because its internally consistent. Now, once you learn ENOUGH case…
Maturity of Your Political Preference
Apr 25, 2020, 8:35 AM MATURITY OF YOUR POLITICAL PREFERENCE “The Limits of Calculability” 1. Communism (Family) > 2. … Socialism (Extended Family) > 3. … … Classical Liberalism (Community – Market) > 4. … … … Rule of Law (Nation(People) – Multiple Markets) > 5. … … … … Military (Territory(International) – Competing Markets).
Disambiguation: “P vs Applied P”
I see lot of confusion by not separating “P” (the method) from various applications of the P-method. P-Method isn’t like libertarianism, or socialism, or some other political model. By applying P-Method we are trying to reform and restore our civilization. Method vs Application. Science vs Technology, Baking vs Cookies. THE METHODOLOGY 1 – P-Metaphysics (realism,…
Jesus wasn’t complicated
Apr 25, 2020, 9:54 AM Mithra was the origin of the political utility of monopoly. Zoroastrian the religion of that successful monopoly. Sol Invictus was a rotation like Odin->Tyr replacement, to compete with Mithra. Jesus was a ‘capture’ of john the baptist (jesus’ competitor for prophet), Mithra, Pagan Sun Gods, and from hindu: “Christ”=”Krishna”, from…

Understanding Chinese People’s Opinion of Western Civilization by Argument
THE NINE NATIONS OF EAST ASIA Accidentally set off a tweet conflict by posting nine nations of north america compared to the same equivalent map of china. Lots to be learned here. They colonize (conquer) the world slowly and culturally, over the long haul. They see this as civilizing by culture where we see civlizing…

Cream of Tartar for MSG Sensitivity?

On Secure Communications and Organizing.
NOPE. —“I have a question, is there such a thing as secure communication?”— Via PM No. But Telegram is good, signal is better, and ProtonMail is best. The only reason for secure comm is planning – and while abstract discussion is legal, planning is not. There is no utility – only harm – in planning…

Apr 25, 2020, 11:12 AM WHY DO YOU NEED IT? What makes you think your theology, philosophy, or ideology is any different than putting cheese in a maze to bait a rat to work his way through it? It’s not. Why do we need these things? Because otherwise, in a division of labor larger than…

How Humans Adapt More than Evolve
Apr 25, 2020, 12:25 PM [I]n my work, I assume that very little genetic ‘evolution’ occurs at all. And that instead, humans possess an extraordinary ability to express multiple evolutionary strategies in response to changes, pressures, and shocks. We can call upon an amazing wealth of genetic expression of ability if we need to. And…
