  • The Copula: The First Step in Learning the Propertarian Method

      This is one of those surprisingly difficult concepts. We avoid the verb to be in operational language because it allows you the pretense of knowledge (promising what you can’t promise) without articulating a causal relationship. The simple example being the difference between ‘the book is on the table’ and ‘I promise i recall seeing a book on the table in the hallway’ or ‘I promise i see a book on the table and if you observe the table in the hall you will see a book on it also.” While this is a simple example, this operationalizing of language into testimonial speech makes almost all sophistry and deceit impossible to construct (really). In fact, most sophomoric philosophically ‘profound’ questions cannot be constructed in operational and testimonial terms. If you want to know more, spend thirty minutes reading four wiki articles: THE COPULA (VERB TO BE) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copula_(linguistics) EPRIME (ELIMINATING THE COPULA) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-Prime PERFORMATIVE (EXISTENTIAL) TRUTH https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth#Performative (then read the rest of the article) OPERATIONALISM https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/operationalism FALSIFIABILITY https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falsifiability#Falsificationism By the use of performative statements, in ePrime, in Operational Vocabulary, we can falsify almost any claim to knowledge, understanding, consistency, coherence, and truth claims simply by the fact that it is almost impossible to state a falsehood in such gramamtical constraints, just as it is almost impossible to make well formed mathematical or programming statements in the grammatical constraints of mathematics in programming. DISAMBIGUATION BY SERIALIZATION AND OPERATIONALISM Most of P-Logic invovles learning how to disambiguate at term by creating an ordered list of terms (serialization) restating them in operational language, and adjusting their definitions so that they are each unique in meaning, yet represent a point on the spectrum of whatever constant relation you are making use of. THis is the first step in learning propertarian methods.

  • What Does P Mean? Some Common Terms in Propertarianism

    Jan 30, 2020, 4:24 PM Yes P = Propertarianism, and we use: P-Method, P-Logic, P-Testimony or Testimonialism, P-Ethics or Propertarian ethics, P-Law or Natural Law of Reciprocity, Disambiguation by Serialization and Operationalism, ePrime, The Copula. Operational Language and Vocabulary. Inflationary and deflationary Grammars. Fictionalisms. Deceits. Abrahamic method of deceit. The Grammars, Ternary Logic, Compatibilism, The Coercive Technologies, Three Classes of Elites, Falsification, Decidability, Truth as Demand for decidability., Warranty of Due Diligence, Reciprocity, Imposition of costs, Demonstrated Interest. Property In Toto. And we repeat the properties of Reciprocity, Testimony, property in to, the sequence of deceits, the sequences of crimes, and the abrahamic method pretty much constantly, and we describe human behavior in these terms using the language of economics. It seems overwhelming. If we get it into ‘propertarianism for dummies’ I’m not sure it will be. But it’s been harder than we thought.

  • It’s New and Only Hard Until It’s Not

    Jan 30, 2020, 6:06 PM by Brandon Hayes P, like everything new, is hard until it’s not. There are many popular thinkers and commentators now that are taking to not differentiating between “hard” and “new.” I like this for the effect it has on framing. It’s only hard cause it’s new; and it’s only new cause you just finished. 😉 P is simple; and quite frankly proper. The expulsion of deception solves for communicative misunderstanding (as saying “I understand you” when I don’t is a lie; deception). And if we don’t misunderstand each other than meaning can be relayed without delay. Only liars stand in the way; and if they don’t like being called liars… well, they ought to stop.
