    END THE LIES: OBJECTIVISM INCLUDED

    “The frame creates the falsehood. It’s bait for the well-meaning fool.”

    Humans retaliate for impositions of cost upon that in which they have born costs to obtain an interest.

    The benefits of in-group cooperation are disproportionate to non-cooperation. as much as 10,000 times more productive. such that humans – we are expensive – cannot afford not to cooperate when competing with others who cooperate. And the rate of cooperation determines the rate of production, so we must always advance or rates to maintain advantage.

    Humans are neither moral nor immoral, but rational, and act morally to avoid the imposition of costs and preserve the incentive to cooperate, and act immorally to impose costs and diminishing the incentive to cooperate, as they determine is their interest.

    The more resources available for the mitigation of vicissitudes or the expansion of pleasures, the less rational the impulse to act immorally in the present. The fewer resources available for the mitigation of vicissitudes or the expansion of pleasures, the more rational is the impulse to act immorally in the present. Yet at all times we possess the impulse and opportunity to act immorally should circumstances change.

    THE FAILURE OF OBJECTIVIST ETHICS

    Objectivist polities cannot either form, or survive competition for members, nor competition from markets, nor competition from predators. They are impossible. Becuase all polities depend upon the production of commons and objectivism is (as is the jewish separatism that it was designed to reflect) a model under which members seek the gains of a market without paying the high cost of its construction and maintenance. This is the islamic (overloading), the gypsy(physical parasitism), and the jewish economic strategy(economic parasitism): impose costs and contribute no gains to the commons.

    In other words, if you’re an objectivist you’re a parasite. A parasite on the commons just as a communist is a parasite on private property. But both communism against private property and objectivsm-libertarianism against the commons are simply out-group separatist strategies to engage in parasitism upoN others via one extreme or the other.

    END THE LIES

    You’re welcome to join the non-parasitic liberty movement. We call it ‘Sovereignty’. And it requires that you fight to pay for the liberty you currently beggar for.

    But then, it is a possible liberty not an impossible one.

    EPISTEMOLOGY IS A SIMPLE THING

    (propertarianism) (core)

    Recipes describe actionable knowledge that we can use to Transform State.

    Theories describe a “Field of Opportunities”.

    There exists only one epistemological method for the discovery of recipes and theories:

    – Observation->perception,

    – Free association-> wayfinding,

    – Hypothesis->construction,

    – Theory->survival from criticism,

    – Law->survival in the market for criticism,

    – Habituation -> survival,

    – Metaphysical inclusion -> replication.

    Within this method we find special cases of the epistemological method: non-contradiction, apriorisms, simplicity – in the same way we discover special cases of prime numbers – and for the same reason: coincidence of simplicities amidst the chaos of possibilities.

    But we eventually run low on simplicities at any given level of precision, and must develop new logical and physical and moral instrumentation in order to obtain sufficient information to discover more simplicities at greater precision.

    All the while defending against our tendencies to engage in error, bias,wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, pseudoscience, pseudorationalism, pseudo-moralism, and deceit.

    To warranty our speech against the dark forces of error, bias, and deceit, we can test each existentially possible dimension – in which humans can act – against error, bias, and deceit.

    – Categorical Consistency – identity

    – Logical Consistency – internal correspondence

    – Empirical Consistency – external correspondence

    – Existential Consistency – operational correspondence

    – Moral Consistency – recirpocal correspondence

    – Scope Consistency – full accounting – dimensional correspondence.

    This process constitutes the completion of the scientific method for the warranty of due diligence of one’s testimony in every domain of human inquiry without exception.

    @curtdoolittle I am very familiar with Libertarian ideas about this . We can start conversation at a hight level. Or we can read Webster.
