UNDERSTANDING WESTERN POLICY AS RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE

(reposted)(expanded)

You gotta understand this. And this is hard for some people to grasp:

The entire IDENTITY of the west is predicated on their superiority in human rights. Their claim of legitimacy is predicated upon it. Their identity, self worth, system of status signals, political mythology, and moral authority is based upon it. The US’s argument in favor of its use of POWER is predicated upon it.

So, when you take a bunch of peaceful white folk, and shoot them, this is not so much a question of Ukraine. It’s a question of ‘religious devotion’ on the part of westerners.

I have spent a long time trying to demonstrate the connection between economics and morality – that they’re the same. But that while humans are universally acquisitive, they are MORE universally MORAL than acquisitive. And that is an evolutionary necessity.

Just as Coase worked to add the theory of the firm to macro Economics. I want to add morality into macro economics. And the logic of cooperation into Philosophy. (I don’t know if I can at this point, because i’m in my 50’s already. But i’m going to keep at it.) But if I succeed, then at that point, economics will be, THE social science. Both internally consistent (logic of cooperation) and eternally correspondent (macro economics).

So, for the RELIGION of the secular christian west, shooting protesters is the far more serious an offense to the secular christianity that we call democratic socialism, than drawing comics of Muhammed as a goat-f_cker.

I am not a ‘christian’ in this sense. I am an aristocratic egalitarian. Christianity as we practice it incorporates some aristocratic egalitarian values and virtues. That we worship one particular philosopher (Jesus/Peter/Paul) rather than all philosophers, generals, and statesmen and is a catastrophe of the christianization of Europe.

My religion, if I have one, is “sovereignty”. Which translates to property rights in libertarian language. However, the difference in aristocratic egalitarianism, is that you EARN those property rights by paying for them with your constant diligence. You are’t born with them. And logically – you just can’t be anyway.
