Leddihn was very well cultured, a polyglot, and world traveler (86 countries).
He thought lefties were herdists, open perhaps in some sense but close minded in most others.

There is a “jewy” quality to the mountains for the lack of a better word, going back to Mesopotamia (conflict of agricultural, settled Sumerians and their “Great Earth Mother” vs. patriarchal, herder progeny of Adam and his mountain god). Mountains are never the centers of civilizations and empires and are often regarded by the lowlanders as a the dwelling place of demons and damned. There is a ferocious aristocracy in the lowlands as well, especially in undomesticated and semi-domesticated lowlands – as in steppes. The aristocracy of horsemen often know how to remind mountain folks why they like to hide in the mountains to begin with. I’m a lowlander 100%.Jan 16, 2019, 6:41 AMChip SillsMontani semper liberiJan 16, 2019, 9:30 AMDomagoy WattsReiterlied
Wohlauf, Kameraden, aufs Pferd, aufs Pferd!
Ins Feld, in die Freiheit gezogen!
Im Felde, da ist der Mann noch was werth,
Da wird das Herz noch gewogen,
Da tritt kein Anderer für ihn ein,
Auf sich selber steht er da ganz allein.
Aus der Welt die Freiheit verschwunden ist,
Man sieht nur Herren und Knechte;
Die Falschheit herrschet, die Hinterlist
Bei dem feigen Menschengeschlechte.
Der dem Tod ins Angesicht schauen kann,
Der Soldat allein ist der freie Mann!

Comstock I know about the different population sizes of many different cities around the world, that’s why I can tell this ranking is bullshit. But before calling it bullshit I ask what it ranks because I may be missing something. Apparently not, it’s just a BS ranking.Jan 14, 2019, 10:33 AMGordon E. ComstockIt’s population density, you unintuitive, low IQ dolts! Those cities aren’t supposed to be the top 20 most populous, they are marked as way of clarification (I’m not precisely sure what it’s supposed to be clarifying, but it’s obviously not a top 20 ffs)Jan 14, 2019, 10:36 AMTomás Rodriguez VillegasIt would STILL be wrong, and no, it’s not population density, unless you think numbers like 13 million for Buenos Aires is refering to DENSITY and not overall population.Jan 14, 2019, 10:37 AMGordon E. Comstockoh for f*ck’s sakes! Maybe those are some especially densely packed cities (that’s why there’s no Mexico city highlighted)? I dunno. Otherwise the map could be read as just showing urbanization which more or less equals pop density.
Please tell me, when you see a figure attached to Lichtenstein on a map of Europe, do you automatically jump to the conclusion that it somehow ranks Lichtenstein!?Jan 14, 2019, 10:45 AMTomás Rodriguez VillegasMexico City IS highlighted and is ranked number 5, did you even spent one fucking second paying attention to the map or what? stop wasting my time.Jan 14, 2019, 10:46 AMGordon E.

I asked about the ranking, not the fucking scale. And being that I live in the city which is ranked number 2 I think I can tell if its bullshit or not. Fuck off.Jan 14, 2019, 10:59 AMMary RomanoEnergy consumption?Jan 14, 2019, 11:11 AMNicola PaviaTomás Rodriguez Villegas City population is actually quite hard to measure precisely because some people will just count the city proper, others include suburbs, and in some countries an entire region will count as a “city”. So take these numbers with a grain of salt. Maybe these researchers were way too generous with which parts of Argentina they counted as “Buenos Aires”Jan 14, 2019, 11:56 AMTomás Rodriguez VillegasNicola Pavia, the numbers for Buenos Aires are actually accurate but a little bit outdated. 13 million is pretty close but I think it might have hiked to 14-15 million lately. Anyways, let’s say the number is right, in the case of Buenos Aires they are counting suburbs/outskirts, because the city itself is only 3.5 million. In the case of NYC they are probably doing the opposite, not counting the five boroughs completely maybe? NY is way over 8 million people. Sao Paulo and Mexico City are both bigger than Buenos Aires, which comes third in Latin America. And it’s just impossible that Lima makes it to this ranking but LA or Chicago don’t. The most populous cities are by far in Asia, particularly in China, India, Bangladesh and Indonesia, and also Tokyo Japan of course.Jan 14, 2019, 12:01 PMOsman ErdoganA.k.a where the nukes need to be sent.Jan 14, 2019, 1:04 PMCurt Doolittle(a) the site that produced this map is closed. (b) the site that contains the world data does not show the detail this clearly. (c) I chose this map entirely because of the clarity of the population distribution. (d) I do not know the ranking but I”ll find out. I may be urban, metropolitan or regional population or pop density. It might be rate of change. Kinshasa is what’s throwing me. but in general it’s pretty close to largest cities depending on which of the four values above is being measured.Jan 14, 2019, 10:59 PMSamuel CharlickThe Tokyo metropolis, which has consumed many other large cities such as Yokohama and Kawasaki, is the most populous metropolitan area in the world and exceeds 38 million people, and also expands by a further 2.5 million in day times due to commuters.Jan 14, 2019, 11:37 PMTomás Rodriguez Villegas^trueJan 15, 2019, 5:59 AMTHE MOST USEFUL MAP OF THE WORLD.

The athenian tradition did not account for costs. There are two principle reasons for it:
(1) the peerage was small and wealthy with common interests – and costs were as rude then as today
(2) discussion of costs immediately changes from ideals to reals thereby self selecting into class interests
(3) mathematical idealism influenced greco-roman thought so heavily, giving such sophism an unearned legitimacy.
(4) historically religion spoke in these ideal terms, philosophy an improvement upon them, and empiricism an improvement upon philosophy, and science an improvement upon empiricism, just as ‘Testimonialism’ is an improvement upon science. (empiricism vs science distinguished by the 20th’s implementation of operational language, and testimonialism by the completion of the scientific method).
It is time for philosophy to either abandon idealism, sophism, and the ignorance of costs, or to be further demoted into the theology of ideals.
USING LOGIC IS WESTERN BECAUSE WESTERNERS ACCOUNT FOR COSTS.
—“Now, I’ve spent a lot of time on it, but you have to ask yourself, why, if mathematical, logical, empirical, operational, rational, reciprocal, arguments with tests of scope, completeness, and coherence exist, why it would be that you would argue by any other means.”—- CD

(2) discussion of costs immediately changes from ideals to reals thereby self selecting into class interests.” — CD
Adam Voight asks a profound question:
—“Does this mean that doing metaphysics has been overvalued for 2500 years?”— Adam Voight
Yes, (which is why I piss on the subject all the time) it’s just a means of trying to find a reason not to account for costs.
Which I think i’ve tried to state repeatedly, is that the universe operates on least cost principles because it has no choice.
Humans do also because they have no choice. We are more complicated than the universe because we have memory, can use that memory to predict, and therefore select delayed actions or early actions an capture that difference in calories as reward.
Measurement(math), Science (measurement), engineering (measurement), accounting/finance (measurement), economics(measurement), and Law (measurement) all account for costs.
Philosophy and theology and the Occult do not account for costs. IMO Popper and Kuhn did not account for costs. Hayek half-succeeded and half failed, in that law is the only ‘science’ and that all else is merely some fewer number of dimensions we consider under the law. Science and philosophy and religion evolved out of law, with economics and physics the only two to account for costs, and keynesian economics an attempt like philosophy and religion to NOT account for costs.
So here is the simple psychology of it:
Those of us and our disciplines who account for costs.
Those of us and our disciplines who avoid accounting for costs.
The issue: you can rally people politically very easily by not accounting for costs.
That is the secret to religion and philosophy versus science and law.
Hence my work at ‘fixing’ the law such that it is a cult in and of itself, that is extremely intolerant of not accounting for costs.

Um. You are silly. It’s built on the common law, accounting, the corporation, banking, sail, cannon and steel. Belief systems are just storytelling. Men act in the real world.
