SCHOOLING THE ARROGANT AND IGNORANT
It took me 15 years. But in its most reductive form, this is the philosophy of western civilization.
–What the hell am I reading?!?Dame Scary of Austin–
Something beyond your pay grade? 😉
—How is violence a freaking resource that can be “invested” in the state?—
How is my labor, my thought, my time, my wealth invested in the state? What about the opportunities I don’t seize? See?
—Your entire worldview is incoherent. How are Natural Law and Market Law in any way related?—
You display an arrogant, ignorant, egoism. You lack knowledge. You are not the judge of coherence in the absence of it.
—None of these terms are meaningfully defined. None of these premises are self-evident.—
Self-evidence requires knowledge of self-evidence. You simply don’t possess it. That said, it requires a lot of knowledge.
—“Acting allows us to obtain the difference between our expenditure and capture of energy.” I can’t even.—
Apparently, physics is included in those things that you dont know. Like life converting molecules and expending waste heat.
–And not only is your philosophy a messy word-salad, but you claim it is the philosophy of Western Civilization. Why?–
All group evolutionary strategies are contained in metaphysical assumptions rather than explicit statements. I state them.
—There IS no “Philosophy of Western Civilization.” You can’t pretend that Plato, Aquinas, Descartes and Nietzche shared views.—
You can however, (of those in particular) demonstrate that they shared uniquely western aristocratic egalitarian assumptions
—Holy shit, are you literally going to murder people when Hillary wins?—
It’s a reasonable solution, although I don’t think it will be necessary. 😉
Propertarianism: the equivalent of reducing all human activity to accounting(operations), profit and loss(incentives), and Balance(results).
—Sounds incredibly limiting.—
Every year, in every civilization, in every era, people invent new ways of stealing, and boycott, violence, and revolt.
In ever civilization in every era, people boycott, enact laws, revolt, or engage in civil war.
Anglo civ is unique: we just update the contract (constitution).
So, now that I have responded to all your statements made in ignorance, perhaps you will ask rather than assert. 😉 -cheers
