[U]nfortunately, the whole expansion of the franchised ruined our excellent ancient tradition of watching your words, through liberal use of the duel. Unfortunately, the whole expansion of the franchise ruined our excellent tradition of telling the truth, by the dilution of libel and slander.

The Virtue Of Hanging (Frequently)
Unfortunately the whole post-slavery thing ruined our excellent ancient tradition of genetic pacification thru liberal application of hanging. Unfortunately mass immigration ruined our excellent tradition of genetic pacification through sheriffs, posses, and civic duty of every man to defend the commons. Too many unfortunate things for aristocracy to tolerate. —“A well hanged man rarely reoffends.”—Shaun Moss -
Differences in Criminal, Ethical, and Moral Rules
(Riffing off Michael Philip) [D]ifferences between Criminal, ethical, moral. CRIMINAL: The criminal spectrum consists of imposition of costs by manual means.
ETHICAL: The ethical spectrum consists of imposition of costs by means of information asymmetry. MORAL: The moral spectrum consists of costs imposed by anonymous means. Norms may or many not be objectively moral. Laws may or may not be objectively moral. Under Propertarianism all law is required to be constructed by objectively moral means and everything else must be constructed as a contract for multiple exchanges the net of which must be productive, fully informed, warrantied and free of externality of the same criteria.

THE FUTURE OF OUR RELIGION: PAGAN, CHRISTIAN, ARISTOTELIAN (from elsewhere)( imp
THE FUTURE OF OUR RELIGION: PAGAN, CHRISTIAN, ARISTOTELIAN
(from elsewhere)( important post)
In an effort to follow the grand tradition of making everyone equally unhappy: the Germanic west has always been both folk pagan and politically Christian and intellectually Aristotelian.
Like the Chinese who rely on sun tzu in the aristocracy, Confucius in politics and Buddha and Lao tzu in the lower classes, we are and always have been polytheists.
The church wrote our history. Philosophers from the middle classes wrote alternatives, prophets sated our lower classes and the family persisted our pagan mythos.
Democratic secular socialist humanism under the control of the academy, media, and state complex have worked more diligently to eradicate our pagan, Christian and Aristotelian mythos by a deluge of propaganda, lying, pseudoscience and political correctness.
While it is true that we must eradicate this false religion, it is unlikely that Christianity can survive in its current form except by demotion to folk religion. And other than Christian brotherly love, given that this Christian sentiment is the origin of the new religion of the state, it is difficult to suggest that it should.
Our pagan history is as protective of our culture as Christianity has made us vulnerable to conquest. But it is insufficient for more than a folk history. It has no equivalent of church, ritual and pulpit. No authority on matters moral and non. No bureaucracy capable of perpetuation, and this is all true because we lack a book: a law upon which to construct ritual, institution and persistent mythos.
Religions require a book. The book must provide a law. That law must solve real problems of organizing a polity such that it can compete to survive if not excel. That law must be sufficient to place moral limits on any state, government or man, abridgment of which licenses ostracism, punishment, deprivation, conquest, and death.
But such a book and such a religion must promise a future that provides returns to its followers.
And following such a religion if we can call it that, must not require contra logical belief that the promised future will be brought into existence.
We are no longer in the age of gods.
We are in the age of man who may become gods.
We need a book that satisfies these criteria.
Preserving the best of the pre-Germanic, Germanic pagan, Christian monarchical, Aristotelian cults, and delivering us from Babylonian Judaism 4.0: Anglo liberalism, and Germanic neo-Puritanism, United with cosmopolitan Jewish socialism.
We need to use that book to retake our churches. To retake our governments. To retake control of our destiny. To preserve the Majesty and piety of the church, the universal love of the Nazarene, the heroism of Alexander and Odin, the wisdom of the truth of Aristotle, the beauty of the universe transformed by our will into the Eden we did not fall from but instead desire to bring into being.
Restorations of past mythos cannot be reconstructed. The incentives do not exist. Appeals to restoration of Protestantism, to Catholicism, to Germanic paganism, or Celtic Druidism are mere admissions of failure.
We need a revolution not a restoration. We need a book. And with that book moral license and individual and collective incentive to overthrow the state religion, spit its members and advocates upon pikes, hang their followers, crucify our enemies, destroy their monuments, burn their books, and to associate through repetition the names of false gods, false prophets, distributors of falsity, so that none dare speak their names except as a impolitic curse.
Evolve or perish.
A book.
A plan.
An organization
And violent action.

http://www.propertarianism.com/2015/06/21/a-hierarchy-of-truths/Q&A: “WHO IS TO DO THE LAUNDERING?” THE EFFECT OF WARRANTY
—“As for truth, who is to do the laundering and how do we know if it has been done in error?”—Karl Smith
We do it ourselves, and warranty we have done so. If we have ‘interests’ then we can test it. But warranty tends to produce desired ends: “skin in the game”.
1) Spectrum: Deceitful, Honest, Truthful, True, Tautological.
See: A Hierarchy of Truths
http://www.propertarianism.com%2F2015%2F06%2F21%2Fa-hierarchy-of-truths%2F
2) We can give honest testimony but honesty is not warrantied (promise) that we have performed due diligence against error, bias, wishful thinking, and deceit. As such we cannot state that we have laundered that information consisting of imaginary, erroneous, imaginary, biased, or wishful thinking from it.
We can give truthful testimony, if we can warranty we have performed due diligence against error, bias, wishful thinking, and deceit. We need a method of performing due diligence (criticism) of our statements.
We cannot testify to truth even if we utter it, because even if we perform due diligence against error, bias, wishful thinking, and deceit, we cannot know if we are informationally complete, and cannot warranty it.
We can testify to a tautology because it is informationally complete, but as informationally complete it has no theoretical content (no general rule), and therefore no general explanatory power, and requires no warranty.
3) We can subject our theories to criticisms:
– identity (naming, properties, category)
– internal consistency(logic),
– external correspondence(empiricism),
– parsimony(limits),
– existential possibility (operationalism),
– morality (productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer, free of hazard and externality of the same criteria),
Or more simply, we can use the scientific method, which has nothing unique to the sciences per se, and instead is a general process of criticism for the production of truthful testimony: epistemology.

(not that I feel like beating on russia these days, but truth is truth) The west
(not that I feel like beating on russia these days, but truth is truth)
The west has legitimate problems with Russia:
1) Russia’s history of murdering its own people in vast numbers, and occupying and destroying much of eastern Europe, and then engaging in both the cold war and the expansion of world communism. This history prevents Russia from making a legitimate claim to extension of its borders just as we resist german’s extension of is borders.
2) Absence of rule of law, widespread corruption, use of propaganda and outright lying – which in Russia is heroic and in the west is the very pinnacle of immorality. The Russian sponsorship of a predatory government maintaining the poverty of the people of Ukraine and its agitation over the return of eastern Europe to christendom given its history was and is intolerable both to Westerners and to eastern europeans. The assumption that Russia would add rule of law but retain its conservatism was just fine – as long as Russia joined the west thereby uniting all european peoples and restoring christendom after its destruction by the communists. This would have achieved the long standing goal of uniting german culture and engineering with Russian resources and labor.
3) Russian intellectuals’ fascination with the restoration of an empire responsible for genocides only surpassed by the Chinese, and the tragic victimization and impoverishment of eastern Europe, and even Germany – instead of unity of european peoples. As if power – disappearing people in the night, suppressing speech, and terrorism by secret police – rather than prosperity were somehow something to aspire to.
4) Invasion of Ukraine breaking the postwar consensus on borders – the purpose of which was to prevent another world war. In doing so Russia confirmed both its failure to learn from its past failings, and its willingness to impose harm on ‘our people’. Putin was until then a respected politician in the west who could just have asked the west to negotiate a trade for discounted natural gas in exchange for a full crimean lease including independence on the hong kong model for 200 years – after which it would have been irrelevant. The same for the Donbas since Ukrainians despise that region because it’s the source of Russian influence on the government, source of gangsters supported by Russia, and the source of the drug trade. So Putin confirmed that Russia had learned nothing, and wishes to repeat its past crimes against humanity.
American utopianism is absurd and the neo-conservative movement has been as disastrous as the progressive, neo-puritain, and socialist. Americans are perfectly happy to feel good about themselves by punishing brown and yellow people the world over. America has the luxury of stupidity due to wealth in part gained by their domestic utopianism.
And sure, democracy is done for, republicanism is a luxury of wealthy europeans riding on the accumulated wave of centuries of intellectual, technical and artistic achievement. Yes, women have have used enfranchisement to incrementally destroy the west that alone liberated them, and yes, the left has used the funding provided by women through advertising and expanding education in the the academy and rent seeking that expands the state to convert us into another brazil.
That does not mean that anything Russia desires or does is not more of the same even worse than we have experienced from her before. She rails against the nazis who were half the criminals the russians have been.
That people want strength is a statement of their weakness.
