  • Taleb and Doolittle

    TALEB AND DOOLITTLE (worth repeating) And Taleb is the counter to Keynesian Probabilism, the same way I am counter to Marxist, Boasian, Freudian, Frankfurt School, Postmodern pseudoscience and pseudo-rationalism. And there are very few of us working on ending the 19th-20th century’s experiment with ‘new mysticism’. Taleb = truth in probability. (anti-innumeracy – numbers ) Doolittle = Truth is testimony. (anti-fictionalism – words )

  • “What is really required to defend ‘the West’ against the sudden rise of these b

    —-“What is really required to defend ‘the West’ against the sudden rise of these barbaric and elemental forces is the strengthening, to an extent perhaps still unknown to Western man, of a heroic vision of life. Apart from the military-technical apparatus, the world of the ‘Westerners’ has at its disposal only a limp and shapeless substance – and the cult of the skin, the myth of ‘safety’ and of ‘war on war’, and the ideal of the long, comfortable, guaranteed, ‘democratic’ existence, which is preferred to the ideal of the fulfilment which can be grasped only on the frontiers between life and death in the meeting of the essence of living with the extreme of danger.” ― Julius Evola, Metaphysics of War

    —“The ‘human’ sense of life, so typical of the modern West, confirms its plebeian and lower aspect. That which some were ashamed of – ‘man’ – others took pride in. The ancient world elevated the individual to God, made every effort to unbind him from passion, to adapt him to transcendence, with free air of heights in contemplation as well as in action; it knew traditions of non-human heroes and of men of divine blood. The Semiticised world not only deprived the ‘creature’ of the divine, but finally reduced God to a human figure. Bringing back to life the demonism of a Pelasgian substratum, it substituted the pure Olympian regions, vertiginous in their radiant perfection, with the terrorist viewpoints of its apocalypses, of hells, of predestination, of perdition. God was no longer the aristocratic god of the Romans, the god pf patricians, to whom one prays standing, in the light of the fire, head up high and which is carried at the head of the victorious legions […]” ― Julius Evola

  • “SHORT BUS” ( Russkiy: желтый дом )

    In America, the ‘disabled’ (retarded) children used to be (and maybe still are), herded to and from school in a ‘short bus’ which is literally.. a short bus. —“The idea of ‘riding the short bus’ is used in American English in much the same way that желтый дом (yellow house) is used in Russian as a reference to mentally retarded children. United States public school systems have an extensive bus program to transport children to and from school. Regular buses hold large amounts of children. Shorter buses are typically used for “Special Education” (i.e., the mentally retarded).”—
