—“Until now, we only had tradition and historical analogical and moral argument on the conservative side to counter consumptive (parasitic, dysgenic) tendencies in word and deed, in contradistinction to productive (self-sufficient, eugenic) tendencies in word and deed. But we do have now the basis for judging behavior in the DAP (Default Aggression Principle: either productively trade or be conquered and domesticated), the NPP (Non-Parasitism Principle: non-imposition of costs against property-in-toto), and the requirement for productive, voluntary, fully-informed, warrantied exchange limited to externalities of the same criteria, and we have the ratio-scientific language to clearly communicate those judgments in operational language to all, regardless of their various biases and (limited) abilities, and we have the means by which to enforce all of this in the organized application of violence.
Testimonialism provided the missing middle piece to connect the judgment and the means of enforcement, and moreover it makes experiences and the recipes that produce them commensurate across minds, thereby removing previously crippling limits on individual and group calculation, and thus action.” — Moritz Bierling
