MY THOUGHTS ON : John-Paul Wright / Stefan Molyneux

THE LEFT

– People on the left score lower than people on the right in self control.

– Self control (impulsivity) along with IQ, is an ubiquitous predictor of life outcomes.

– People on the left score higher on aggression than people on the right.

– Leftists assume through self experience that agency is limited.

– Criminals overwhelmingly tend to be leftists.

– Justify and glamorize anti-social violence (rebels, criminals, political deceit)

– Moral Specialization (motherhood)

– Left academia is engaged in ADVOCACY not in CRITICISM. (lying)

THE RIGHT

– The right is more conscientious, less impulsive, less aggressive, has greater assumption of agency, and far lower criminality.

– Justify and glamorize pro-social violence (war, police, sheriff, heroism).

– Moral Generalization(‘tribal-hood’)

– Right academia is engaged in criticism, not advocacy.

TIME PREFERENCES

– The right is empirical(skeptical) ‘show me, so that we know the consequences first.’

– The right self corrects and prosecutes its own members.

– The left is rational(optimistic) ‘just do it and figure out the consequences later’

– The left ‘forgets’ rather than self-corrects, and ‘reframes’ its own members.

INARGUABLE CORRELATIONS

There are two of the strongest correlations in social science:

1) impulsivity and aggression

2) stereotypes.

The left lies about these two factors consistently.

ORIGINS

– Women need to be impulsive since the cost of child rearing is irrationally high.

– Women must invest heavily in children so they advance them regardless of their merit (denial).

– Women who are married with children develop conservative political positions.

– Women who are married with more than two children develop most conservative political positions because they are unable to fantasize given the evidence before them.

CONSEQUENCES

1. the left produces a kleptocratic order (female strategy)

2. it’s necessary for women to employ a kleptocratic (parasitic) strategy given the asymmetry of costs of reproduction.

3. gender biases can cross genders, and do, so men demonstrate the same parasitic strategy when they cannot compete without doing so.

4. some individuals adopt these biases for signaling purposes.

5. the only method of improving a society is to reduce the number of the impulsive (leftists). A leftist society will always degenerate.

6. the method of decreasing the possibility of leftist action is rule of natural law.

7. the method of decreasing the number of leftist actors is by limiting the reproduction of leftist actors.

8. the method of increasing the number of rightist actors is by retention of the results of their productivity when allocated to reproduction, and subsidy of their reproduction if possible.
