    RESTORING CIV.
    (life lessons) (learning from luke weinhagen)
    Working with Luke Weinhagen yesterday during an interview on the eighth chapter of his book “primal primer” and having a moment of insight that is an example of the value of his work.

    1) I’m hyper gregarious, but I never understood the reason being an attempt to create a ‘safe space’ not just for me but for everyone. And to gather intelligence to predict the safety of the space. And to broadcast safety to others in the space.

    2) I’m only 5’7, even if when fit, still 175 lbs. (I’m not fit now 😉 ). So what you learn from wrestling and fighting, is that big guys can intimidate, threaten, and take a bit of risk. They can posture. But smaller guys must go all in at the first provocation, as fast as they can, as hard as they can. So our ‘risk profile’ varies by our size.

    3) The ‘softening’ of each generation, is producing fragility in men, and instability in women, and as a result fragility and discord in the population. Luke is very clear on this but I haven’t understood the extent of it: But when I grew up boys fought. A lot. We competed and resolved conflicts when were were too small to really hurt one another – so we needn’t when we were older and could hurt one another.

    Now we have known for a few decades now, that this problem is due primiarly to mixing boys and girls in the same school, and educating them at the same ages. Boys require competition for position to ‘care’, just as girls need to ‘please’ or ‘conform’ to care. To accomodate girls we’ve ruined boys, ruined society, and ruined our institutions – and we’re losing competitiveness against the rest of the world by comparison. But we’ve done nothing to change it. And why? Women’s intuition combined with women largely in charge of education.

    Every false theory we have had since Marx (class), neoMarxism(culture), postmodernism(truth), feminism(sex and family), woke (race) has been destructive – cancerous. Because it’s counter to the laws of nature. And the new ‘religions’ have tried to use social construction (systematic lying) to persuade our peoples that we can violate those laws of nature – as if we are blank slates. And if not quite as bad, that nurture is more influential than nature – as if we ere partially blank slates. But evolution did not leave it up to our parents and neighbors to insure our species survival. It only left it up to them to discover ways to cooperate in the current context within those laws of nature, and those instincts that we evolved to continue our compatibility with nature’s laws.

    In the end, as offensive as it is, our civilizational crisis, as is true of every country experiencing demographic collapse, was caused by the over-introduction of women into economy and polity (despite just displacing men) and taking for granted the production of families. If we don’t produce children and families, we can’t produce societies and without societies we can’t produce economies. And without economies we can’t produce polities.

    There is no reason women can’t be integrated into the political system but we must do three things to prevent civilizational collapse by doing so:
    1) equally prohibit female antisocial and anti-political behavior as we have men (and women will hate it).
    2) teach the sexes separately, and if necessary races separately, so that we teach approval seeking or competition seeking as the sexes need it – and compensate for the different rates and depths of sexual maturity and resulting aggression vs pacifism of the races by doing so.
    3) Provide women a house of government so that we must compromise between the sexes, rather than allow women to constantly dictate the outcome of elections that have taken us closer and closer to civilizational suicide in pursuit of the belief that social construction can violate the laws of the universe, and particularly our genetics.
    4) Decide whether to reinforce the two parent family or abandon it as an institution.
    -Cheers

    We had a huge reorganization of the planet with the end of empires during the world wars. The end of empires and of the limits of agrarianism.
    We’ve had a huge reorganization of the planet by the americans in the postwar period, trying to convert to self determined states and federations.
    We appear to be returning to the conflict of civilizations (races), and this will mean either empires or alliances that are the resource-equivalent.
    And we appear to be having a total population and civilizational collapse across the developed countries, that as a consequence will cause devastation in less developed countries.
    And as a result either retrenchment or re-concentration of forces if only in defense, will occur.
    And so we should at least cautiously expect, an upheaval on the scale of the world wars.
    It might not happen. We don’t know. We can’t know. If you look at Rudyard’s predictions they are a spectrum that’s in line with everyone else’s predictions. Though RL is on the slightly optimistic side (as are most historians) while some are on the pessimistic side – probably because they have a less neutral assessment of civilizations.

    Non argument. The races consists of four local speciation events, each of which increased neoteny.
