  • Racialism?

    —“CURT: DO YOU BELIEVE IN/SUPPORT RACIALISM?— (choice quotes here) (I view this, and all racial questions, as stupid but here is my answer.) I don’t know what that means. I advocate truth is more competitively advantageous than falsehood. In the case of race, people everywhere at all times demonstrate kin selection (except at the margins).…

  • The Diseconomies of Scale

    —“At what point do diseconomies of organizational scale kick in or is this a flawed frame?”—Lee Tucker That is the entire question as far as I am concerned. If we take an empirical look, the scale increases with available information systems, and the homogeneity of the population. But in simple terms, a city = a…

  • Using Horizontal and Vertical Classes

    —“Curt, I’d like to ask about your break down of class. It seems based on IQ and income level is that a correct assessment?”— Um… well, I use genetic, social, occupational, and economic classes – even though they overlap a great deal as horizontal classes. And I use the three specializations in means of coercion…

  • Smartness vs Genius

    There is a big difference between smartness and genius. I consider quite a few people smarter than I am in this dimension or that – and I think it’s related to their ability to master things like chess, chemistry, and mathematics, using axiomatic systems to permute applications of rules within the limits of the game.…

  • Q&A: “Curt: What Defines Middle Class?”

    —“What defines the middle class according to you? I go by the British definition” — Dawid Wella The common definition is: —“the social group between the upper(not working) and working (laboring) classes, including professional and business workers and their families(managerial).”— I would use: ***”People who calculate, organize, manage, production, distribution, and trade.”*** Because I think…

  • Repositioning Economics, Sociology, Philosophy and Law

    [S]o today I have discussed repositioning economics as social science, and social science as pseudoscience. And repositioning philosophy as positive aspirational literature of rationalist priests, and negative critical law, of empirical judges. This mirrors the epistemological method of creative free association to arrive at hypothesis, and criticism to test theories in the hope of discovering…

  • Definition of Class: Reproductive Value

    (profound) (complete decidability) (objective morality)  [S]ocial class refers a rough division of humans into a distribution by their reproductive value. There is a competition between the classes, as there is a competition between all living organisms – and there must be for evolution continue and the species to persist. The competition between the classes is…
