  • NPCs? Not So Simple…

    October 16th, 2018 5:39 PM NPCs? NOT SO SIMPLE… by Ely Harman

    It’s not as simple as “NPC bad!” There are NPCs on our side too. Most conservatives are NPCs. The issue is most people lack the agency (awareness) for self-ownership, sovereignty, enfranchisement, or any number of related, partially overlapping, terms. That doesn’t mean they can’t be good, functional, members of society. It just means they can’t be in charge of it. Making a pretense of putting NPCs in charge (through universal franchise democracy or whatever) is just a sham way of putting whoever can pull their levers (media, academia, etc…) In charge. And that’s simply not worth doing for a variety of complex reasons mostly having to do with issues of accountability or “skin in the game.”

    AGENCY MUST BE TRAINED

    by Brandon Hayes

    Agency has to be fostered and trained. We can develop systems to promote it. Having an agency based (propertarian) framework is a great first step. Teach people to view the world in a reciprocal fashion. We teach dogs to be helpful; I can teach even an objectively bad dog to not be a burden.

    THE HERD, (NPCs) RESIST ALL MEASUREMENTS (COMMENSURABILITIES)

    Resistance to personality, iq, class, race, and gender differences, is an NPC behavior (herd behavior) for obvious reasons- the pack requires a hierarchy to organize for the purpose of eugenic evolution (competition), but the herd rebels against it for the purpose of dysgenic (equalitarian) persistence.

    AGAIN: MBTI vs BIG5/6 vs MORAL FOUNDATIONS vs GENDER

    (from elsewhere)

    In other words, the principle difference between MBTI and Big 5 are (a) the weight it gives to trait expression, and (b) the principle difference in value is that with 100 Questions we can test your IQ within a half a standard deviation, because all components scale evenly, but we cannot test the rest of your personality traits with so few questions because they do NOT scale evenly.

    Moreover, MBTI is a WORKPLACE and social weighting of traits, while BIG5 is a THERAPEUTIC weighting of traits. These are differences in value rather than differences in measurement.

    I was not the first person to make this distinction, but I have written extensively on the fact that while MBTI is imprecise, it is the maximum complexity of a model that individuals can work with in the workplace.

    We can measure all sorts of trait expression, and even the big 5 FACTORS must be broken down into TRAITS in order to accommodate the difference in factor expression between the GENDERS.

    STATISTICAL DIFFERENCES: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156661592707264&set=a.10156479504747264&type=3&size=850%2C370

    In this sense MBTI is a better judge of the GENDER biases inherent in cognitive and emotional biases because its fairly obvious that the gender distributions are inverted.

    Whereas this transparency was only visible in BIG5 *after* division from Factors into Trait Expressions – and that occurred fairly recently (post 2000), as psychology attempted to reform from a pseudoscience to a science when confronted with imaging, genetic, and pharmaceutical science.

  • NPCs, and Their Method of Resistance

    October 15th, 2018 11:03 AM NPCs, AND THEIR METHOD OF RESISTANCE [O]ne of the NPCs traits is to rely on Euphemism when it suits them and Literalism when it suits them, but then attack the use of Euphemism or Literalism by opponents when it doesn’t. As always, an NPC simply withdraws consent to agree no matter what, by whatever excuse possible, as a means of avoiding continuous, recursive, cooperative pursuit of decidability (the truth) that would require that they change their prior bias and commitment. You do not have to be intelligent to engage in this form of non-cooperation-by -continuous-denial. You just have to find a way to disagree and prevent progress to decidability NPC’s merely transmit and imitate means of denying cooperation on the discovery of decidability (truth) and resist all attempts at discovery of decidability. It is by this method the Herd ‘sticks together’ and is not ‘divided’ by reason, truth, science, argument, morality, reciprocity or any other criteria. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute
