    (FB 1543527253 Timestamp) SORRY, NO ONE WILL EVER “DESTROY” ME IN HONEST ARGUMENT. WON’T HAPPEN. —“E Michael Jones [would destroy] Curt’s sandcastle he spent all day building”— Dream on buddy. 😉 Never, ever, happen. Why? Which was the greater influence on the uniqueness of, and success of, the west? The Military, The Engineers and Metalsmiths, the Entrepreneurs(risk takers), The Law, The Philosophers, or the Church? We SURVIVED Christianity. We were not made by it. You see, choosing one grammar (model) allows cherry picking and justification. But choosing ALL models doesn’t. Victor Davis Hanson is right. “The Other Greeks”. The only criticism is, that evidence shows, the greek aristocracy were western Aryans practicing ancient aryan sovereignty, reciprocity, truth, duty, contractualism, and law. It all begins with the militia. And the militia begins with the Yamna and Cattle Raiding. Our militia order survived christianity. The farther north the more it survived. The farther south the more it was defeated by the church’s corruption. That which one perceives as good (survivor bias) may not in fact be good. I this case, while religions (myths, feasts, festivals) are in general a good thing. Abrahamic religions bring forth dark ages, ignorance, death, and decline. No matter how many men in those times try to desperately preserve our ancestral knowledge. No matter how many needles you find in christian, jewish, and muslim haystacks, they will never ever reach anything close to the achievements of western man in the ancient and modern worlds. EVER. The Christians were destroyers – we just managed to conquer the Church when it’s corruption was not longer tolerable. The Jews were destroyers and still are – by undermining every (109) host country they have been evicted from. The muslims were and are destroyers and still are – by raiding, invasion, and population replacement. Abrahamic religions are the greatest evil ever to befall mankind other than the great plagues and natural disasters. Not even the mongols come close – because they were only greedy – not hateful. Truth is enough. The Law is enough. Imposition of the Law by organized violence is enough. The organized violence of the militia of men who would be sovereign is enough. That is the lesson of history.

    (FB 1543521336 Timestamp) THE FRAGILITY OF CURRENT STOIC RESTORATION MOVEMENT —“Curt, it looks like the Daily Stoic has taken a Left Turn. Can you take a look?”— One of my followers has complained about what she perceived as a ‘turn to the left’ by the Daily Stoic. She asked if I would investigate, since I am advocating the restoration of stoicism as required education – a restoration of our ancient personal religion so to speak. My followers are unlikely to need training in stoicism in large part because they already practice the habits under indirect guise. Their interest and mine is political, economic, and evolutionary. The cognitive discipline (habits) Stoicism provides, produces superior polities. Those polities are superior because they are less dependent upon falsehoods to govern. So the direction of the Stoic Restoration has more than trivial importance to me, and to them. But what troubles me when I survey your (collective) approach, which is the imbalance between defensive self help and detachment – the trap fallen into by the Buddhists – and disciplined self-authoring in the excellences (‘virtues’), and in achieving one’s life’s goals (change). In other words, without the COMPETITION between rational distance from your emotions, and pursuit of achievements in life, all one does is recreate abrahamic and buddhist detachment from reality. This produces no excellences, only defenses – submission to circumstance. Western civilization was unique in that we developed Heroism, Individual Sovereignty, Truth and Duty, The Natural Law (of tort), and Markets in all aspects of personal, academic, intellectual, commercial, civic, and political life – avoiding theocratic or bureaucratic monopoly. It was this set of traits that allowed us to develop all the paradigms (disciplines) all of which were united only by those few criteria above. This meant that law > jury > reason > empiricism > science > technology > medicine could evolve … … and with them we could – in the ancient and modern if not medieval worlds – drag mankind kicking and screaming out of ignorance, superstition, hard labor, poverty, starvation, disease, child mortality, early death, tyranny, and the victimization by uncaring nature. The means by which we achieved all of this was competition (markets). And the means by which the stoic virtues can be achieved without causing the same catastrophe that reverses the western achievement, is by both increased independence from our animal intuitions, and … … application of that mind, emotions, and body, freed of those limits, to achieve the heroic at whatever scale of heroism the individual is able – no matter how large or small. To make the most of the one life we have available to us, in a manner must desirable to us. Leaving this competition between unsaid, is to leave stoicism incomplete. And to fall into the errors we have seen in prior eras, which slowly cause a people to descend into what is emotionally comforting but in demonstration of consequence indifferent from nihilism.

And holy fuck, you’re a smarter guy than i realized. I’m embarrassed I didn’t notice the depth of it before. Hahahah”— A Friend So in person I’m kind and charming, in video interviews I’m smart and deep, and online I’m a dick and shallow? Is that what I’m supposed to take from this??? Lolz.

    (FB 1543537043 Timestamp) ON THE VALUE OF ART TO THE ARTIST AND CONSUMER by Tim Beckley-Spillane As Curt has pointed out, metaphor and allegory are adopted for their economy. Artists use them as a means of conveying subjective experiences that are much too complex and intricate to communicate in toto. The mystifying element of art is simply a necessary consequence of the shorthand approach employed in its creation, and so it can’t actually be demystified because it’s a message presented in incomplete, non-operational, non-scientific language, and therefore the exact intention and experience of the artist cannot be extracted from it. The imprecision of a fortunately rendered artwork can inspire a great deal of intellectual stimulation however, and it’s in this that great art gains much of its value. The greater the intellect of the consumer, the better equipped he is to connect the dots, to imaginatively exhaust all of the possibilities presented in the artwork (which are, of course, endless), the greater the value he finds in it. Imprecision also necessitates interaction, unification of thought and experience, which is the ultimate end that the successful artist achieves by means of his art. In other words, the ultimate aim of artistic production is not the work itself, but the exchange it mediates between the artist and consumer, which can continue as long as the artwork survives. As the great novelist James Joyce said of his masterpiece, Ulysses, “I’ve put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant, and that’s the only way of insuring one’s immortality.”
