THE REASONS FOR THE CURRENT CRISIS IN THE WORLD – THE CORRECTION OF MALTHUS.

(very important narrative)(lots of quotable ideas for your use)(read more than once)

1) People justify their intuitions, justify their wants, justify their seizure of opportunities, justify (cast) their actions as goods.

This is the reason why truthful speech (measurements), and science (measurements), and measurement (mathematics) are so ‘unnatural’ for us: we did not so much evolve language to lie, but to negotiate – not speak the truth as we understand the meaning of that term today.

The principle function of public intellectuals is to create an excuse that survives criticism in the context. Just as has been done among all humans in all of recorded history – and seemingly before it.

2) For most of our evolutionary history as humans, as we increasingly unified, we have attempted to invent justifications for imposing one set of preferences (goods) over many other sets and combinations thereof.

The question is, why did we unify? Because life on the farm as slave, serf, laborer, freeman was very hard, and people were poor, and powerless, and unification was *always* preferable to division in cases other than invasion and war.

3) The the enlightenment, the agrarian and industrial revolution, and the rifle changed this condition. Colonialism and world wars expanded the scope of the change in condition. For the first time in history the marginal difference in power between peoples was largely that of numbers.

We can look at greek/roman reason along similar lines: having ‘succeeded’ in obtaining sovereignty in fact over the east if not the entire mediterranean, people sought excuses for the current order (socrates), the perfection and expansion (plato), cause of the condition (aristotle), and how to enjoy it (epicurus and zeno). But these are all ‘excuses’ for the use of commons (opportunities) constructed by the population density of the community.

4) So in search of new excuses, to seize newly possible opportunities, people saw greater advantage in separation or rotation than they had in the past tripartite(deflationary) and binary(conflationary) orders. As such they changed their arguments from the GOOD AND MORAL, reasons to ally, to the BAD AND IMMORAL reasons to either rotate (and capture capital) or separate (and divide capital).

5) The upper class conviction of the morality of the Tripartite (binary) structure of social orders was argued as myth, but was actually simply a law of nature (Pareto). The oppression myth (Abrahamism) and gullibility in the service of ambitious members of the middle classes, gave the lower classes the various middle class enlightenment fantasies then working class marxist fantasies: that rotation was possible because people had been oppressed. When in fact that people had been incrementally domesticated by peoples who were demonstrably superior in abilities to create families of individuals that could survive the competition of the various markets, ranging from survival to power.

6) Given that this inescapable hierarchy exists among peoples, and given that different peoples from different regions consist of different distributions of low and high abilities, and given the universal demonstration of kin selection in problems of access to power to determine the production and distribution of commons, and therefore the transfer of wealth from more productive to less productive (and therefore dysgenic) in reversal of the transfer of wealth from the less productive (labor) to the more productive (middle and therefore eugenic), the peoples who are productive and their elites who choose commons in favor of their productivity are no longer finding utility in cooperation and scale, because they would be reduced to lower status without the elites forming beneficial commons and containing their proceeds to kin.

Meanwhile those who are ascendent but not competitive want to displace those productive people and their productive order, and impose one that is in their favor.

7) So what we have seen is the incremental dissolution of the via-positiva of the value of scale, and its replacement with the incremental construction of kinship lines for the purpose of preserving the advantages for the average and lower folk who, because of culture and demographic distribution, benefit when their elites are in control, and they are not parasited upon by others. So in reversal of Abrahamic revolt against aristocracy, people are simply working to capture what they can for their races, cultures, tribes and clans.

8) There is a difference between justifying takings (conquest), and justifying takings in the absence of not taking (reciprocity). So there are four positions: i) conquer and preserve (conservatives), ii) conquer and rotate (leftists), iii) separate (nationalists), iv) sit it out.(libertarians and uncommitted).

9) So those people that will NOT benefit from the conquest of their social and political orders and the commons advantageous to them, are in competition with those people what WILL benefit from the conquest of the existing social and political order and the commons advantageous to them. And some people are wealthy and comfortable enough that they will simply sit out the war.

10) From this understanding, no one is ‘thinking, or reasoning’ at all. Everyone is following his genetic interests just as evolution demands, and merely looking for excuses to justify his evolutionary demands. We are but riders on the elephant.

Ergo, all invention is but excuse-making on the part of genes. And this is really the most important rule of the evolution of knowledge that we can state. These excuses reduce or increase the friction of reorganization in pursuit of genetic advantage. Just as politics and war are just excuses that reduce or increase the friction of reorganization in pursuit of seizing genetic opportunity. (as it must be for life to survive).

11) The only reciprocal solution that I can identify is separatism, by which each kin group pays the cost of domesticating its kin group.

12) I find very little material differences between the abilities of the different races, subraces and tribes that is not a function of (a) scale of the underclass (the mean), (b) degree of neoteny, (c) the success in neoteny of preserving the female verbal skill and distributing it to both genders, even at the expense of the male spatial skill. As far as I know these three simple traits determine the fate of a people.

-Peak Human-

13) There is a point – and we are at it – where there is no longer any ‘reserve’ in the human genome that is left untapped. In fact, I think we are currently engaged in hyperconsumption of our abilities to deliterious effects. LIke transferring war from violence to economics, we have transferred physical stress into mental stress. WE now have illnesses of the mind, as we had previously illnesses of the body.

The human body cannot evolve fast enough to compensate for the rate of adaptation of the mind and therefore our actions, and therefore our social orders. We have maximized the available resource of the existing human body.

14) So just as in knowledge of all things we are no longer looking for new categories, but simply seeking the reduction and elimination of error made possible by the evolution of the human mind as a tool for negotiation and deception more so than truthfulness (correspondence with reality) – we are now seeking to reduce parasitism in our social orders because no more improvements can be made by scale, and therefore all advantages come from the elimination of disadvantages.

15) Therefore the solution to harmony is via negativa: the continued reversal of the value of scale, and the restoration of nations.

-Let Us All Bloom-

16) Let a thousand nations bloom. Let us all transcend at no one’s expense. Rather than justify the transcendence of some over that of others.

17) Or worse, justify the devolution of mankind altogether. Which seems to be the consequence of unlimited cooperation: All of Hinduism, All of Islam, All of South Amerindians. The scale of the underclass is now so great that the productivity of the people is insufficient for the production of incentives necessary for the formation of a voluntary organization of production (markets).

18) The bottom is too heavy. Malthus was wrong. It is not that the numbers will defeat us. It is that the numbers of those lacking agency will defeat us because the cost of their transformation from animal to man is simply too high for the productivity available to them in the absence of technology and markets produced externally to them.

This is the principal problem facing man.
