How and Why The Collapse of Britain Mirrors The Collapse of Rome: Pseudoscience Over Mysticism – But Still The Same Lie
(some important insights) [P]eter Hitchens (all), If you put the ‘dumbing down’ of the British population in historical context, it is an attempt to establish a secular version of christianity under pseudo-scientifc argument, and the closure of the church, and the extermination of the aristocracy, using forcible conversion by the state, using the same aggressive…
The Right Is Happy With Truth and Trade. It’s The Left That Wants Lies and Takings
[T]he reason the right likes my solutions to political economy, despite being fairly progressive innovations of on classical liberalism, are because they disallow lying in the construction of exchanges. And the fact that progressives are dependent upon lies and conservatives desirous of truth telling should be enough of an insight for any moral man: progressivism…
Empirical Evidence of the Superiority of Western Truthfulness
[T]he Chosen People is an argument to supremacy. Islamism is an argument to supremacy. Evidence is of european supremacy whether pagan or christian. Actually, its against christian mysticism, and in favor of pagan science, independence and testimony. If we look at RATES of evolution (development) instead of earliest development, it’s pretty obvious that the superior…
Why So Much Time And Effort On Anti-Racism? Self Correction.
[A]LL, My job is to come up with a solution. You either help me do that or you don’t. Bitching about other races and groups with competing strategies is just masturbation. I love my race and my kin and my culture because all men must love their tribe for it to persist in the great…
Testimonialism: More On Full Accounting and Parsimony
[I] talk about Parsimony (limits) pretty often, but I don’t spend enough time and effort on the obvious moral requirement of Full Accounting(full accounting of all costs: opportunity, real, normative, institutional, genetic and ‘godly’- in the sense of man’s achievement of godhood). THE TESTS OF TRUTHFULNESS – WARRANTY OF DUE DILIGENCE Identity (non-conflationary) Internal Consistency…
Existence: Natural Numbers, Natural Morality, Natural Law
(important concept) [A]ll conflicts are commensurable and decidable, therefore objective morality objectively exists. The counter proposition is that conflcits are not logically decidable by any means. When one says objective (necessary and natural) morality doesn’t exist, what one means instead, is that despite the existence of objective decidability, therefore objective morality, that no group in…
Red, Purple, and Blue America: Is There A Divide?
[T]he most honest answer is not to start with a false frame of ‘we’ and instead examine the country by voting patterns that demonstrate those preferences (see Pew Research) for an empirical analysis not one of confirming existing priors by guessing correlations. Roughly speaking, the north-south divide present since the civil war remains. Primarily, people…
What Is The Next Great Technological Revolution? Its Not What You Think.
[I]’m going to posit a very different technological revolution, that is far more important. Lets look at a set of revolutionary inventions: Cooperative Revolution Tool Use Revolution Language Revolution (??) Oral History Revolution Metalwork revolution Reading, Writing and Arithmetic (first computational revolution) Greek Rationalism (Aristotelianism and stoicism) Christian Mysticism ( a regression if there ever…
The Melting Pot That Isn’t
(worth repeating) — “The only thing that melts in our non-existent melting pot, is rule of law. Everything else is just an expression of the ongoing battle between our genes that we call gender, class, race, and religious competition.“—
The Great Liars And The Great Lies.
[T]he Great Liars **They Mastered The Art of the Great Lie** Version 1: monotheism and christianity – using preachers pulpits Version 2: pseudoscience: boaz, marx, freud, cantor, (keynes), mises, frankfurt, rothbard – using The Academy Lectern, New Media, and Entertainment Arts. In both the ancient and modern world, they told lies for women and slaves.…
Government(Particular) vs Rule (Universal)
[T]here is a very great difference between government and rule. Rule: the adjudication of differences in matters of dispute by non-discretionary rules. It is a purely prohibitionary (negative) responsibility. Government: The means of decision making by which groups select a limited set of commons to invest in with scarce resources given the unlimited demand for…
If You Can Name A Thing You Can Kill A Thing
[I] have discovered how they lie. It took less time than I thought. If you can name a thing with its true name – the operations of its construction – you can kill a thing. End the Lies. Restore the west. Restore truth to the people who invented it. Truth. Violence. Law.
Defense vs Rule vs Government
[I] have no problem defending or ruling other peoples. These are both moral and costly. I have a problem with governing other people. And profiting from it. Why? Because defense and rule of law are universal truths. Governing: producing commons, are preferences and strategies. I consider that none of even the most enlightened people’s business.…
Thank You All
[T]hank all of you. Especially those of you who have helped, advised, criticised, and supported me over the past few years. You know who you are. And that list is now so long I cannot type it. I thank god that I am so lucky that you are generous enough to share your time with…
Dear Academy: No. A Liberal Education Is Not A Good Thing. It’s A Bad Thing.
[C]hristopher. It has become increasingly clear to me that a liberal education only performs its upper and upper middle class adult function as part of a triumvirate of the church’s youth and lower class teachings in myth and idealism, and the military’s middle class teenage training in duty, truth and testimony. We practice a hierarchy…
A Dramatic Change
[P]ropertarianism and Testimonialism together are as great an advancement over the scientific era as the scientific era was over the rationalist, and the rationalist over the mystical. No kidding. We can revolutionize human thought, action, existence, and history.
Philip Saunders Frames The Narrative Correctly
[F]rom Philip: “The operating philosophy of the 20th century was relativism in the domain of ideas, combined with universalism in the realm of institutions. This expressed itself in the subjectivistic movements of modernism and postmodernism, combined with the socio-economic trends of communism, fascism and statist neoliberalism. “The 21st century is the polar opposite. With unlimited…
Yes, I Know That Sometimes You Need To Read, and Re-Read…
[Y]ep. You gotta read, re-read, and think about some of the stuff I write. Sorry. I do too. Writing a proof, which is most of what I try to do, does not mean that I understand all the implications of what I write when I write it. I often go back and say “wow… I…
Markets Provide Information
[J]ust as you cannot know anything about an economy without a market of exchanges of goods and services resulting in prices by which you can make decisions, you cannot know anything about society without a market of exchanges of commons resulting in prices by which you can make decisions.
Q&A: “Does The Propertarian Institute Give Classes?”
[T]he leadership (which is a small group that started at Hoppe’s Property and Freedom Society and grew from there) wants me to finish the first book. And for historical reasons it is better for a movement to have a finished ‘tome’ or ‘canon’ to work from before we start any formal training. We have ambitions…
How Do We Know The ‘Right’ Taxation?
Q&A: —“How does one find out if taxes are indeed limited? How does one figure out whether “the price is right” under a monopoly?”— [I] think what you might mean is how we know what commission to calculate. And given that commissions and sales taxes are well understood phenomenon I’m not sure how that’s particularly…
The Purpose of Forming A Polity? Discounts.
[C]ommons produce opportunities (lower opportunity costs) and reduce risk (reduce transaction costs), the purpose of which is to incentivize people to seize opportunities. In other words, it is not that the externalities are non-excludable (because many are) but that ***the purpose of forming a polity is the production of discounts on opportunity costs, transaction costs,…
Q&A: Curt, Why Attack Cantor? It’s Useful. (Lying is also useful, but it’s not true.)
(advanced) —“I’ve been following your work for some time. I’m going through your reading list and am intrigued. One thing however was bugging me for some time. Namely, your attack on Cantor you gave on one of your interviews. I’d greatly appreciate if you could expand on this a little. For example infinities of different…
Can Christianity Find Room for Intellectuals?
[I] am fairly sure at this point that my concept of christianity differs little from say Jefferson’s except in the current scientific language I would use to express it. I practice an intellectual form of what we call christianity. It is demonstrably more pagan (the adoration of beauty, life, nature, the universe) in sentiment. It…
