—“Given that all wealth was produced by humans (everything around us was once raw matter in the ground), as long as parasitism is suppressed and the reproduction rate is lower than the consumption rate for each family, the production of more humans (those of likely high-productive ability) would yield more productivity than merely maximizing production from the current population.”— Steve Pender

Very nice young college girl here I have known for the past couple of years (waitress in one of my favorite places.) We always chat. She is friends with another girl who reminds me very much of my daughter Caitie. I love that there are good people everywhere in this world if you try to find them. Always support the young folk with promise. Care is contagious and acceptance is gives them energy. Same with the young men I run into. I remember being 23. OMG. We need to give them all the help they can get. 🙂
Pay it forward.

Working on Big 5 vs Big 6, vs Propertarianism, vs MBTI.
Now, MBTI Maps to most of Big 5, if we express big 5 as spectra rather than as ideal types.
I think I can unite the three models using propertarianism and change psychology forever, by laundering it of this… awful legacy.

Philosophy: “Testimonial Science”
Well, we usually define philosophy as either the love of wisdom – in the ancient sense – or in the modern sense, the search for truth.
My work is an effort to define truth, so that we can prohibit falsehood and the use of falsehood as a means of theft, parasitism, predation and conquest.
So as far as I know I have produced the most total definition of truth and means of identifying it as has been achieved as yet. (and it seems hard to do better really.)
This definition of truth causes the convergence of biology, morality, philosophy, law, and science. Which is in itself an achievement, and we call this kind of utility “explanatory power”. This truth has a great deal of explanatory power.
I call this ‘existentially possible’ and ‘complete’ truth “Testimonial Truth”.
And since science and philosophy are merged by using this definition of truth, I argue that philosophy should be reframed (relabeled) as “Testimonial Science”.
Meaning, the science of speaking the truth.

WHERE HOPPE SHINES
If Hans Hoppe is reasoning using incentives he’s flawless. I hang on his every word. We just need to keep him away from justificationism and he’s safe. In other words, he’s a much better economist(social scientist) than philosopher(testimonial scientist.). I’m beginning to think that ‘testimonial science” (philosophy), is the hardest subject of all. We are not evolved for truth telling. We are evolved for negotiation on cooperation. And while he does very well, his upbringing in philosophy is an albatross that burdens his legacy. If he, unlike most, but perhaps like Russell, admitted this prior to his death he would be remembered as one of the greats I think.

Dont’ confuse meaning with incentive. People do not act by meaning. They act by incentives.

THE RECIPE OF OUR DESTRUCTION?
1) WEASEL WORDS + REASONABLENESS -> 2) PSEUDOSCIENCE + RATIONALISM -> 3) MYTH + MYSTICISM -> 4) LYING + PROPAGANDA.
Not sure why I didn’t think of this earlier but Weasel Words and Reasonableness, and Pseudoscience and Rationalism make use of the same basic technology for lying.
What technology: Analogy, Loading, Framing, Overloading, and Suggestion.
This is how they hacked our altruism.
Damn.
( I really did it. That’s it. )
Isn’t it how women talk to each other? Through indirection and suggestion? Whereas men talk in facts? So am I right that the jews and the church and now the academy and state weaponized the female communication strategy of superior empathy as a means of suggestion?
That’s why they distribute it through women. They’re more open to suggestion than men. OMG.
Yep.

The purpose of keynesianism is debt slavery. No question.
