    Now, I realize my kid lives across the street from Microsoft’s campus, so it’s not necessarily representative of the rest of the country. But from his behavior and from the school lesson criteria, and how well it’s working online, it’s painfully obvious that bringing the majority of kids to classrooms after say, third grade – is pretty pointless – at least for other than the ‘ahem’ underclasses whose parenting skills and food supplies are lacking. Same for college courses. Almost none of it benefits from physical presence.

    Again, I’ll point out that integrated and loyal A’s are exceptional, and as a high iq/verbal acuity individual I have more socially in common than most of my own. It’s politics that differ.

    And yes, I am sure you’re right. it’s the activist feminine mind that’s the problem.

    @unfinis06265716 @YouTube Of course. I won’t name names, but I have a close friend who is important in our movement that pays a high price for it with family and fellows.

    The question is, whether the degree to which the Ashkenazim are cognitively feminine in each influence: Genetics, Religion, Tradition, and Culture. (German jews had almost fully integrated pre-war, such that “presbyterians and jews were indistinguishable.”) Evidence says genetic.

    @unfinis06265716 @YouTube There are good people and bad people in every group. It’s just IQ, Cognitive Masculinity: eschewing attention, priority for system(group) rather than empathy(individual), solving for Sovereignty, Reciprocity, Truth before Preference or Face, and Purity, Loyalty, and Hierarchy.

  • THE COGNITIVE ORIGINS OF CONSPIRACY AND OPPRESSION THEORIES A conspiracy theory

    THE COGNITIVE ORIGINS OF CONSPIRACY AND OPPRESSION THEORIES

    A conspiracy theory requires that one attribute incentives that fail the test of occam’s razor, almost always because the individual is a social outlier, and has limited sensitivity to, experience with, or knowledge and understanding of how people operate in large groups.

    Conspiracy theory is the equivalent of dunning kruger failure of personal assessment, projected upon interpersonal and social assessment. In both cases the individual attributes greater ability, agency, and logic to the self and others than they have, because of mistrust, because they do not trust either their own cognition, others, or both.

    This is why conspiracy theory (systemization) tends to be a male category of cognitive failure, and oppression (personalization) tends to be a female category of cognitive failure.

    However, we note that in both the Male conspiracy theory and the female oppression cognitive failures, that the parties do not seek to understand the incentives of the individuals they are judging, or to falsify their conspiracy or oppression narratives.

    There is a reason for it. The human mind operates by building a world model ‘fit for it’s physical, emotional, psychological, and mental budget’. A physiological, emotional, and cognitive economy. This is why people who are ill, depressed, tired, at different points of the day, rested, healthy, excited, or joyous all perceive the same world slighlty differently

    In both conspiracy and oppression cognitive failures, the individual has defended his or her desperate attempt to suppress the feeling of being out of control of his or her life (due to his or her cognitive limitations), by false self-promise of comprehension.

    Status is our human accounting system. There are healthy and unhealthy means of suppression emotional panic from cognitive failure to find a means of obtaining success (status) in the social, economic, and political marketplace.

    Agency (success), Truth / Knowledge / Understanding (acceptance), Philosophy (settlement), Theology-Religion (detachment), Self Discipline (buddhism,stoicism), Ritual/Sport-exercise/hypersocializatin(exposure), Conspiracy and Oppression (withdrawal) narratives are the most common means of providing mindfulness.

    It’s not hard to see how the consequences of deviation from Knowledge escalate.

    So, both oppression and conspiracy behaviors are expressions of proto-depression, or prolonged depression from the continuous failure of one’s ideas about one’s self and others and what is in other’s abilities and interests. And That’s because evolution insured that we would remain optimistic to survive in the face of incredible stresses when continued existence is no longer rational.

    Exhaust all possible explanation for rational choice prior to default to malincentives (conspiracy of intent). In most cases it’s conspiracy of organizational incentives, conspiracy of common interests, conspiracy of genetic bias (such as the ashkenazi adoption of the female strategy), ignorance, error, or stupidity.

    If you exhaust all of the possible rational incentives then only malincentives remain. But rare.

    Never attribute to intention what is the product of either incentives, ignorance, or stupidity. Humans by and large justify what they do post hoc with a story. Humans by ad large pursue self interests that they can justify with a story afterward. Because that’s what our brains do.

    And frankly the more responsibility you have, for the more people, for more risk, the more you have to compromise between different sets of unacceptable externalities that are the cost of getting whatever it s you’re doing done with the resources available, time available, people you have to work with, and incentives you can provide.

    Most organizational failure that we interpret as conspiracy is the result of people in organizations that are producing malincentives by accident rather than by design.

    Most groups that engage in evil are doing so because they consider what they’re doing a good. As I’m fond of saying, serial killers justify what they do, and the mothers of serial killers justify what they’ve done, and the fathers of serial killers are happy to throw away the key if not pull the lever.

    So if it is other than a conspiracy of intention, our problem is not to wish for better humans, but to rule with the humans we have, using the law and incentives to prevent malincentives.

  • Touch

    Apr 11, 2020, 10:57 PM (relationships) [L]ook. I don’t know how many dozen women I’ve taught this very simple reality. If you want to talk to a man as a woman about a woman’s concerns you must touch him and wait until it calms him (it will) so that he can shift his attention. If a woman is touching a man she’s a woman. If a woman is talking to a man she’s a fact. There is a reason that you want to touch a man if you offend or hurt him. it’s because evolution taught you what touch does to a man. your talk-instinct evolved for women and children. It didn’t evolve for men. Monogamous marriage is a late development, and for some of us as late as the middle ages. Being so busy we are saturated in dopamine, overstimulated with light, and we are not calm enough or bored enough to use affection, play, and sex as a form of entertainment is a very very recent phenomenon and one of the reasons for decline in sex, reproduction, relationships and happiness. You’re a woman for a reason. Use it. Woman are a sedative. They give men mindfulness. Conversely, when negotiating for something material do not use this technique as it builds distrust because it is a false promise. So, for attention use affection. For negotiation use conversation. Separate the emotional from the ‘commercial’. And yes, crying is always cheating. lol It’s a woman’s other superpower. Totally unfair.

  • The Lesson: The Dog, the Cake, and You

    [I] used to work in an art supply store back in college in an exclusive city. There was a bakery next door. A woman parked in front of the store. She went into the bakery. She came back. She put the cake on the front seat. She closed the door. She went off to do something else. She came back. There was a large dog in the back seat. It’s face was covered with frosting. The cake was a disaster. She beat the dog. She cried. She went to the baker. She was angry. She wanted someone to blame. The cake is the government, economy, financial system, education and culture. The dog is people in the government, academy, media, and financial system. The woman is you. The box she didn’t put the cake in is the law. The trunk of the car is the militia. People are just animals. Animals follow incentives. Law creates a market for the suppression of malincentives. The militia defends the law that creates the market for the suppression of malincentives. The problem isn’t the people in the government, economy, financial system, education, academy, media. The problem is your failure to preserve a militia, to preserve the law, that preserves the market for the suppression of malincentives, suppresses the malincentives of the people who are animals following their intuitions. Conspiracy is your way of not taking responsibility for your civilization. Man up. Shut up. Show up. Win.
