I finally have you Jordan. I understand your mistake. You confuse justification with cause. You love parable by which to indirectly educate and inform the feeble, weak, and broken – a narrative, a fiction, rather than a calculation that is arguable among men who are able, strong, and hale.
You do not understand the west at all.
Just the stories mothers and grandmothers tell to children to get them to conform; the excuses of the middle classes that long for the power they do not have. The priests who take credit by recasting the achievements of others.
But, the law of the initiatic brotherhood of warriors isn’t written down. It in’t spoken. It’s demonstrated. It’s inherited generation by generation. And it is the most truthful epistemology ever created: ‘testimonial reporting of observations in the field’.
And, instead of parable, advocacy or tutelage, it is written via-negativa in our traditional laws and customs, not in the excuses mothers give to children, laments of the middle class, or deceptions of priests.
The west has an artificially imposed cult of monopoly(christianity) in exchange for limited literacy and legitimacy of one tribal king to dominate, conquer, and seek rents from another.
The West has had an internally developed religion: a host of archetypal narratives, the respect for heroes, culminating the tragedy (sacrifice) of Achilles, and the west has a prehistoric philosophy: the common law of tort, decided by tests of reciprocity, which is the only possible means of decidability between peers in the initiatic brotherhood of warriors.
The entire history and success of the west is the *consequence* of sovereignty (meritocracy).
We institutionalized the political economy of pirates that we kindly refer to as ‘liberty’ from constraint rather than ‘sovereignty’ because there are *none who can constrain us*.
The west has always been tripartite, and priests deceive, middle class appeals, but the warriors – the militia and the aristocracy – ruled. Yet the propagation of propaganda was produced inversely.
The priests with the falsehood of religion, the philosophers with the half truths of philosophy, and the jurists and warriors with the empirical, scientific, and truthful COMMON LAW, that we call the ‘Rights of Anglo Saxons” – but begins in today’s poland and ukraine as the law of dispute resolution between the initiatic brotherhood of warriors we today loosely refer to without understanding as ‘the militia’.
Western civilization differs from the rest for the exclusive reason that men in the absence of concentrated capital (river valleys), must finance their own retainers, horses, chariots and armor before venturing out on raids, or supplementing those horses with even faster shallow water ships.
The consequence of their common law is that the only means of decidability available to the population is demonstrated property (meaning investment), and as a necessary an inescapable consequence, we developed markets in everything from association, to reproduction, to cooperation, to commons, to politics, to war. And that is why we never developed monolithic religion, never developed monolithic argument, and never succumbed to the stagnation of every other civilization except when we were invaded by christianity that undermined the aristocracy, and islam, that undermined our trade routes.
THe virtue of our sovereignty is that we develop markets in everything, and markets adapt faster than all other systems particularly because they make rents very difficult – and all other civilizations collapse from the accumulated stagnation produced by those rents.
We were not first. We were fastest. And we were fastest not because of priests, philosophers, and authors – but in spite of them. All civilizations are best understood by their laws and the institutions by which they decide them. Everything else is just decoration.
The west begins with the militia. And it will, if it ends, end because the militia ends.
(Yes, that little bit of nonsense on the psychologism of pride made me angry)
