    MAPPING PROPERTARIANISM TO PHILOSOPHY AND THE SCIENCES

    (from the introduction)

    While propertarianism serves as an anti-philosophy system of thought, we rely upon the traditional hierarchy of categories:

    SOVEREIGNTY:

    “-From Reals to Feels-“:

    ————————–

    Metaphysics:…………….Vitruvianism: Man is the measure of all things man (cog. sci.)

    Psychology: ……………..Acquisitionism: Man acquires and defends.

    Sociology: ………………..Compatibilism: Intertemporal division of perception, cognition, knowledge, labor, and advocacy wherein we combine information and calculate compatible means to the achievement of different ends through voluntary conflict, competition, cooperation, and boycott.

    Ethics and Morality:..Propertarianism. (Reciprocity) The Ethics of Non Imposition, production, and investment.

    Epistemology: …………Testimonialism. The competition between imaginary associations and existential measurements in all dimensions of actionable reality.

    Law: …………………………Algorithmic Natural Law. The Natural Law of Reciprocity. Strictly constructed from the test of reciprocity.

    Politics: ……………………Markets in Everything. (Which I call “Market Fascism” with tongue in cheek.)

    Strategy:………………….. Agency: Maximization of agency through Transcendence, Sovereignty, and Heroism

    Spirituality:………………Transcendence: Masculine Stoicism, Feminine Epicureanism, Ritual Familialism, Feast Naturalism,…….Festival Nationalism.

    Aesthetics:……………….,Truth(Testimonial), Excellence(Density), Goodness(Morality[‘the commons’]) and Beauty(Bounty).

    PROPERTARIANISM’S POSITION IN INTELLECTUAL HISTORY

    (from The Introduction)

    Propertarianism is an answer to, refutation of, and solution to, the invention of lying: Cantor’s restoration of mathematical platonism, Marx’s pseudoscientific economics and sociology, Boaz’s pseudo-scientific anthropology and sociology, Freud’s pseudo-scientific psychology, the Frankfurt School’s pseudo-scientific aesthetics, and the French Catholic via Rousseau, and Postmoderns including Foucault, Baudrillard, Derrida, and an academy of followers propagating the . These thinkers constitute the main actors in the Counter-Enlightenment: the Second Abrahamic attack on Western Civilization.

    The first fictionalist attack was the west asian caucasian invention of scripture: authoritarian mystical religion as a successor to explanatory mythology.

    The first Abrahamic fictionalist attack was the fabrication of authoritarian mysticism with the promise of utopia after death by the professionalization of lying about scripture;

    The second Abrahamic Fictionalist attack is the pseudo-scientific (Ashkenazi), pseudo-rational (German), and literary, meaning pseudo-moral (French) attack on Western Civilization which promised the underclasses not only an escape from evolutionary and material constraints, but a utopia of consumption and a permanently expanding technology that would end all wants – using new mass media for the industrialization of lying.

    Propertarianism’s purpose is to end all lying in all its elaborate forms within the informational commons: including the supernatural, pseudo-rational, the pseudo-mathematical, and the pseudoscientific.

  • Propertarianism: The Central Idea

    September 17th, 2018 10:22 AM PROPERTARIANISM: THE CENTRAL IDEA
    (from the introduction) The central idea is the completion of the scientific method, and its application to the entire spectrum of human knowledge. Although understanding the full scope of what that means isn’t at all obvious from that statement. The completion of the scientific method is contained in Propertarianism’s Testimonial Truth (Epistemology). Acquisitionism (Psychology), Propertarianism (sociology), and Natural Law (Ethics, Politics, and Group Competitive Strategy). The rest of the work consists of application of that scientific method to the scope of human knowledge: “Here is the completed scientific method. If we apply the completed scientific method to the full scope of human knowledge, organized by combining categories of philosophy and social science into a single hierarchy, the result is all of these ideas.” The consequence of completing such a reformation of the scope of human knowledge, is our ability to explain not only all of human behavior, but to compare all human civilizations and explain why each excelled (The West), developed (China), fell into stasis (India), or regressed (Islam, Australian aboriginals, and possibly central africans), were conquered (far too many), or Collapsed (Mesoamericans). This reformation is on the same scale of the previous generations of the scientific method: aristotelian reason and stoic psychology of the late ancient world, anglo empiricism of the early modern era, anglo-germanic science of the 19th and 20th centuries, and brings the social soft-sciences from pseudoscientific into the hard sciences. But, given human defense of malinvestment in falsehoods, I suspect these arguments will take as long to propagate through our civlization as did those previous reformations of human knowledge. Whether you consider Propertarianism the Completed Scientific Method, Natural Law (social science), or the codification of the strategy of western civilization, depends upon your interest: intellectual (method), institutional (natural law), or anthropological (the reasons for western rapidity of progress in the ancient and modern worlds.) My original purpose was only to provide a scientific language for describing the group competitive and evolutionary strategy of western civlization. The result is the completion of the scientific method, an explanation for the success of the west, a reformation of human knowledge, and a Constitution of Natural Law by which any and all may live.

    (from the introduction) While propertarianism serves as an anti-philosophy system of thought, we rely upon the traditional hierarchy of categories: 

    SOVEREIGNTY:
    
-From Reals to Feels-
    
Metaphysics:..Vitruvianism: Man is the measure of all things man (cog. sci.)

    Psychology:...Acquisitionism: Man acquires and defends.

    Sociology:....Compatibilism: Intertemporal division of perception, cognition, knowledge, labor, and advocacy wherein we combine information and calculate compatible means to the achievement of different ends through voluntary conflict, competition, cooperation, and boycott.

    Ethics:.......Propertarianism. (Reciprocity) The Ethics of Non Imposition, production, and investment.

    Epistemology:.Testimonialism. The competition between imaginary associations and existential measurements in all dimensions of actionable reality.

    Law:..........Algorithmic Natural Law.  The Natural Law of Reciprocity. Strictly constructed from the test of reciprocity.

    Politics:.....Markets in Everything. (Which I call “Market Fascism”  with tongue in cheek.)

    Strategy:.....Agency: Maximization of agency through Transcendence, Sovereignty, and Heroism

    Spirituality:.Transcendence: Masculine Stoicism, Feminine Epicureanism, Ritual Familialism, Feast Naturalism,…….Festival Nationalism.

    Aesthetics:...Truth(Testimonial), Excellence(Density), Goodness(Morality[‘the commons’]) and Beauty(Bounty).

    September 20th, 2018 7:55 AM CONFLATION. WE CAN’T HELP IT. HENCE OPERATIONALISM. —“Ontological confusions:
    Both children and adults tend to confuse aspects of reality
    (i.e., “core knowledge”) in systematic ways (Lindeman,
    Svedholm-Hakkinen & Lipsanen, 2015). Any category mistake
    involving property differences between animate and
    inanimate or mental and physical, as examples, constitutes
    an ontological confusion. Consider the belief that prayers
    have the capacity to heal (i.e., spiritual healing). Such
    beliefs are taken to result from conflation of mental phenomenon,which are subjective and immaterial, and physicalphenomenon, which are objective and material (Lindeman,Svedholm-Hakkinen & Lipsanen, 2015). On a dual-processview, ontological confusions constitute a failure to reflecton and inhibit such intuitive ontological confusions (Svedholm& Lindeman, 2013). Ontological confusions may also be supported by a bias toward believing the literal truth of
    statements. Thus, ontological confusions are conceptually
    related to both detection and response bias as mechanisms
    that may underlie bullshit receptivity. As such, the propensity
    to endorse ontological confusions should be linked to
    higher levels of bullshit receptivity.”—
