NEW VIDEO IN PRODUCTION : Ancestral Lands

We just finished recording a new Propertarian video on “Ancestral Lands”, where we extend Lockeian theory from the interpersonal and communal, to the level of civilizations. The central argument isn’t terribly complicated. But we made a number of deep digressions which in themselves are very interesting, and so we managed to fill the entire 30 minutes.

The studio will give the video to us mid-week, and we will try to get it edited and posted by next weekend.

NEXT UP:

1) Roman wants to address why we need to abandon the NAP, and adopt high trust.

2) After a conversation with Osku, I think, it would be helpful if I addressed inter-polity (inter-state) ethics where high trust is not necessary, and intra-polity (within-state) ethics, where thigh trust **IS** necessary. Because the NAP is sufficient for inter-polity, but not sufficient for intra-polity ethics. You cannot apply the ethics of the family (kin selection) to the state, any more than the ethics of cooperation between states to the family.

3) After talking to Roman, it seems like we should point out that Propertarianism is a formal logic applicable to all polities and all allocations of property: a DESCRIPTIVE ethics. Whereas Aristocratic Egalitarianism is a recommendation for the competitive advantage in production of high trust aristocratic polities.

4) After reviewing our talk today, I missed two points necessary to harden the argument, I think are important and will have to edit those in somehow.

5) It seems that I should address immigration, movement of people to capital versus movement of capital to people, the impact on the different measures of economics by immigration (or exit). And the need to re-nationalize liberalism (liberty) or we shall lose it.

6) I covered it today, but I suppose I should do a piece on the structure of the family, the division of labor, property rights, liberty, demand for the state, and trust, using diagrams. I don’t think it’s that difficult but it seems to be hard for people ot grasp the relationships between them as necessary.

Following those, I think I’ll work my way through each topic in the table of contents, one video at a time.

TOPIC REQUESTS

Of course, I want to address the more complex topics that are personally fascinating to me and perhaps other philosophers, but those topics are not that interesting (and perhaps more confusing) for most people. So I would like to address those ideas that are both unclear and necessary to understand, instead of those ideas that are unclear but unnecessary to understand.

So if you have a topic that you want me to discuss please post here or send a message.

Thanks
