Also, programming (operationalism) is a new (now necessary) way of logical thinking – not just a different language.

Not quite correct. Tribe=Kin. Cult=Non-kin. Cults survive longer the higher the behavioral cost of entry. Tribe=Respect/Cult=Not. 🙁

Do I really need to spend more time on Friedman, or is a total damnation of the first ten pages indicative of the content of the rest? #tlot

[A] test, by a rational actor, of existential possibility independent of involuntary transfer by externality defeats most pretense of morality.

(worth repeating) [I]f I am correct, and that all emotions are reflections in change in state of property en toto, then all statements of experience are objectively describable independent of statements of experience. And differences in experience are differences in evolutionary strategy. And evolutionary strategies can be decided meritocratically. This knowledge is as dehumanizing as the insights of Darwin, Copernicus, Galileo, Machiavelli, and Aristotle. That does not mean it is not true. I am just as certain that it is, as they were of their own statements. This does not prevent us from making compromises. It merely prevents the state from imposing involuntary compromises upon us. The individual cares how he feels Others care how he feels We can learn how someone feels. But we cannot decide a conflict based upon how someone feels. Feelings are a gauge, but a gage of individual demand for acquisition and retention and that is all.

[T]here is a high cost to truth telling. I am entirely aware of the burden we must pay for physical defense of the realm, physical defense of life and property, normative defense of civic behavior, and defense of the informational commons. But in each case the costs produce extraordinary returns. If we require truthfulness, invasive religions and ideologies cannot Proselytize any unscientific statements – at least using the commons. And alternative rules of law are violations of natural law and pseudoscientific encouragement of theft and fraud. Truth is Enough. Truth and Violence allowed us to construct commons. Truth and violence are enough to restore us. Truth. Violence. Persistence. Lies and cowardice. Genocide.
