TRUTH IS ENOUGH: ARGUMENTATIVE FRAGMENTS

Over the past day, I have accumulated the following posts, started by Michael Phillip’s excellent short piece on the persistence of marxism, but which taken together compose an argument: That we pursue status signals by the use of verbal justification; that very bright people use their intelligence to signal; that this cognitive bias promotes immorality; and that there is but one cure for our cognitive bias: truthful speech; and that truthful speech is only possible to conduct operationally; and that truthful speech is the necessary and sufficient criteria for constructing a moral polity; where morality is defined as avoidance of breaking the incentives to cooperate, by the total prohibition upon free riding.

My Own Bias for Truth Telling As Conflict Suppression (Gene Machine’s and Unconscious Justification)

BUT THE ARGUMENTS THAT ARE MISSING FROM THE LIST:

1) That arguing truthfully is merely tedious, and burdensome, not difficult. It is moral, not cunning.

***2) it is logically impossible pursue a cunning moral strategy, and it is ONLY Possible to pursue a moral society using Propertarianism and Aristocratic Egalitarianism.***

This last statement is profound. I have merely captured in scientific and modern language the ancient aristocratic egalitarian practice that we have developed for as much as 8000 years, but certainly no less that 4000. I am the first to do it. And the only reason I could do it was because science gave us the tools that were unavailable to previous generations.

***THE TRUTH IS ENOUGH***

It has been, and is, and it always will be.
