    —“How about stopping with the anti-Semitic nonsense. Rothbard’s libertarianism has nothing to do with “Jewish Ethics”. . . try reading the Old Testament. Rothbard was for libertarian elites and opposed to statist ones.”— Peter E McAlpine

    Conversely, it has everything to do with jewish ethics, because likewise, it has everything to do with the attempt by the anglos, french, germans, and ashkenazi’s to express their group evolutionary strategies as universals.

    That’s the context of all my arguments: ALL ENLIGHTEMNTS FAILED because all enlightenments stated their nature as ‘the nature of man’ and it’s anything but the nature of man.

    The theory behind propertarianism and testimonialism is that we all screwed up.

    1) man is rational and chooses rational actions. (cog sci)

    2) groups develop competitive strategies that suit their geographic and demographic conditions. (Huntington)

    3) these strategies evolved at the time of the Great Transformation out of whatever military (physically competing) strategies we used at the time, and were converted from physical tactics to political, ethical, moral, and religious justificationary narratives and arguments. (Gimbutas, Armstrong)

    4) they evolved further when our family structures began to reflect our agrarian inheritance structures (Todd)

    5) Evidence from American diaspora is that these properties were incorporated into our genes during the past x thousand years.(Fischer)

    4) however universal decidability in matters of conflict is possible across whatever those boundaries are (Natural Law)

    5) and that universal decidability is provided by nonimposition of costs against property-in-toto (across group strategies) not against just several (private) property within-groups, or across near-groups.

    6) and therefore we can create a market for the production of commons that crosses preferences (in, near, out-group), not under the monopoly of consent (assent), but under the minority of legal prohibition on the use of commons as a means of parasitism (dissent).

    7) and that it was this attempt to preserve in-group authority under majoritarian democracy that each group attempted to seize during the enlightenment, using whatever strategy was available to them:

    Anglo empirical – using very close to strictly constructed law – by misstating the nature of man as moral rather than rational

    German rational by attempting to preserve authority of the church and nobility through rational statement of the great narrative.

    French moral, by attempting to preserve the authority of the church on entirely moralistic (catholic) grounds.

    Russian romantic by attempting to preserve nihilism as the need for authority given the immorality of man, using nothing but narrative.

    Jewish pseudoscientific by using authoritarianism and pseudoscience, and suggestion that appeals to moral bias.

    WHY DO I MAKE THIS ARGUMENT?

    To show that all these errors, wishful thinking, and deceptions failed. And that the enlightenment was incomplete. But that it need not be overturned. Instead, that we might COMPLETE the enlightenment by completing the failed movement of the last century: the requirement for existentially rather than allegory in matters published into the informational commons – and by further requirement of strict construction in the publishing of laws proper, legislation(common contract), and regulation (unregulated commands).

    WHY SUCH STRICTNESS

    Because of the need to continue our historical evolution by incrementally suppressing new means of parasitism as they are created by man.

    ERGO:

    Do not criticize my work for what you ascertain, when I construct it based upon what I ascertain.

    NO MORE LIES.

    The next evolution of man is as costly as the last.

    We can complete the enlightenment.

    We can convert from the use of internally consistent rationalism to fully correspondent testimonialism, and eradicate the methods of deception in ethics, morality, politics, law, economics, and social science, and even the arts.

    Just as we converted from mysticism.

    And the rewards appear at least, to be equally as great if we do.

    Jeez people. If I’ve strictly constructed something it’s pretty likely I’m not making an error. Secondly, the scope of what I consider because of full accounting is probably broader than your frame of reference, and that’s throwing you. But thirdly I reserve the right to trash talk, and screw around – ’cause I’m freaking (mostly) human.

    So, you know, ask – don’t accuse. I have a pretty good record.

    (Well, at least, other than being fooled by Onion articles on an all too regular basis.)

    LIBERTINES AND SJW’S ALIKE

    Apparently, the technique of using cap-headlines on posts is offensive to Rothbardians, who need a safe place – right next to the Social Justice Warriors – that is free of ratio-scientific argument, and where they can desperately cling to their collective suspension of disbelief free of threats that would contradict their self-worth-sustaining variation of right-Marxist ideology.

    Let me help you: incentives. While neither a commune without property or a Private Voluntary Society with property is possible for the same reasons: incentives. And why? Because with or without property (a) neither can hold territory from competitors, and so must be held as a ‘ghetto’ by a political entity that can, and (b) communes that depend on normative and institutional communism (rothbardian institutional communism), and communes that depend on normative, institutional, and propertied communism (marxist total communism), both lack sufficient incentives to survive competition from non-communist political orders.

    Why? Because private, common, normative, institutional, and territorial property is a competitive advantage.

    Rothbardianism is just normative and institutional communism, as a proposed subsitute for total communism.

    private property, shareholder property, common property, normative property, institutional property, territorial property: all groups need them to resist competition from other groups.

    There is no free ride, and no discount available on the range of capital one must protect in order to create liberty.

    We must protect ALL Property in ALL forms from parasitism and free riding if we are to create a polity capable of both the incentives to attract, and incentives to retain a population

    The age of wandering shepherds and merchants ended. We call those people vagrants, unassimilated immigrant underclasses, gypsies, diasporic financiers and traders: a spectrum of free riders (parasites) And they exist only with permission of the hosts that DO pay the high costs of protecting private, shareholder, common, normative, institutional, and territorial property.

    Humans organize. That the kind of people attracted to rothbardianism are those who are less desirable to organize with is the explanation of why they find the idea of an ‘organization’ which asks no common costs of its members. That does not mean these same people can form a polity capable of competitive survival even by incentives to join and stay. It is still preferable to live in a city or the country instead of (costly) suburbia – which is why people do it.

    Now, we can construct a contractual society on the anglo model, which creates a market for relationships, a market for private property, a market for shareholder property, a market for commons, and a market for warriors to defend the commons, all within a monopoly we call natural law.

    And in this system all property is private. But one cannot escape paying for the construction and maintenance of that society even if that society is constructed for the thorough suppression of free riding on material goods and services.

  • CRITICISM: CURT, YOU”RE A MATERIALIST AND THAT’S INSUFFICIENT FOR A PHILOSOPHICA

    CRITICISM: CURT, YOU”RE A MATERIALIST AND THAT’S INSUFFICIENT FOR A PHILOSOPHICAL FRAMEWORK

    —“Limiting your philosophy to pure materialism is a trap and this is what you promote here.”—

    That is because you wish something from me that I do not provide, and what I provide inhibits you in obtaining what you desire.

    What I promote is “the other side of the coin”.

    For those who are weak need guidance.

    For those who are strong, how to rule.

    Those who need guidance seek ideas and inspiration that provide the greatest return.

    Those who need to choose between conflicts need methods of decision making that cause the least harm.

    Hence we have lower class religion, middle-class philosophy, upper middle-class science, and upper-class rule of law.

    I am not writing a middle-class philosophy a lower class philosophy but a method of rule that makes maximum Liberty possible.

    What people do with that Liberty is not my interest or problem. That is a problem for artists, and priests and mothers.

    Creating the privilege of Liberty is my concern because without it they do not possess that luxury.

    So if you need leadership and guidance and inspiration and emotional reward then you are someone who must be ruled.

    If you seek the boundaries of your power so that you remain powerful enough to create liberty for eternity then that is my objective.

    We men are unequal and perform different functions.

    – Aristocracy judges.

    – Priests advocate.

    – Merchants and craftsman produce.

    – Women bear and rear.

    Simple minds seek a narrative conflation with which to produce a single axis of decidability because this is either all they know how to do or all they are cognitively able to do.

    I produce a de-conflated equilibrium of causal axis that is useful for those who require greater precision and who can and desire to work with the equilibrial forces that exist in man and nature and in which man continuously seeks an equilibrium – and equilibrium that if ever obtained would result not in optimums but fragility, stagnation, and eventual loss to the red queen.

    Now I am a charitable teacher. But this is very far above you. And you might consider pondering it rather than struggling so desperately to maintain your self-confidence in the single axis conflationary methods of decision-making that make you only slightly better at human cognition than a kindergartener.

    —“You are (only) human”—

    Yes, I am human. But by any measure, I have an extraordinary talent for analytic deconflation and the distillation of properties into first causes that is no doubt an accident of birth.

    Thus Endeth the rather futile lesson.

    Q&A: CURT, WHATS WITH YOUR REJECTION OF PLATO?

    It is best to read Plato(idealist) along with Dante(apologist) and Macchiavelli(empiricist),with the understanding that as he is writing Greece has passed out of its high point, and he is trying to find a method for ‘manufacturing’ great leaders like Pericles. He wants to restore the past. Why? Because he doesn’t have a solution. So he’s kind of an analogy for 20th century conservatives.

    Aristotle, like Machiavelli,doesn’t try to make excuses for anything, he just reads a lot of constitutions and tells us what he finds. Hayek the same.

    Aristotle, Macchiavelli, Locke, Smith, Hume, Jefferson, Pareto, Weber, Durkheim, Burhnam, Hayek. All these authors practice Empiricism vs Idealism.

    The reason I’m exasperated with Plato is its he who the church turned to in order to create the priesthood.

    What they should have turned to was Roman Law for rule, Spartan Warriors for enforcement, Greek houses of government for commons, and Stoic Personal Philosophy, and Polytheistic Political Religion.

    But the dependence upon german mercenaries, the plagues that decimated the population, the eventual loss of the grain fields of north africa made them poor, and the people ignorant, and the lies of the church were simply a cheaper method of governing, with a smaller number of people, than was the army, lawyers, judges, and senators, all of whom must be expensively educated and thoroughly indoctrinated.
