“Human flourishing depends on individuals paying costs to contribute to the common good, but such arrangements are vulnerable to free riding, in which individuals benefit from others’ contributions without paying costs themselves. Systems of tracking and sanctioning free riders can stabilize cooperation, but the origin of such tendencies is not well understood. Here, we provide evidence that children as young as 4 years old negatively evaluate and sanction free riders. Across six studies, we showed that these tendencies are robust, large in magnitude, tuned to intentional rather than unintentional noncontribution, and generally consistent across third- and first-party cases. Further, these effects cannot be accounted for by factors that frequently co-occur with free riding, such as nonconforming behaviors or the costs that free riding imposes on the group. Our findings demonstrate that from early in life, children both hold and enforce a normative expectation that individuals are intrinsically obligated to contribute to the common good.”

Acting makes you insane just as religion makes you insane. It’s become a cult.

THREE AXIS OF COGNITIVE SPECIATION
(core concept that simplifies propertarianism)
There are only so many evolutionary venues available for human speciation given our adaptation after the development of language is largely cognitive:
(a) neoteny(or its reversal) (b) gender dimorphism (or its reversal)
Now, dimorphism generally refers to externally visible structural differences, however we have significant internal structural differences (neurological) as well as structural differences in neurochemistry (velocity and incentives).
Ideal human adaptivity requires increasing neoteny, and increasing dimorphism (specialization).
So some groups are more evolutionarily advanced than others.
We must then adapt to our in group distributions. That produces cultural and strategic specialization.
But in the end we are largely varying and SPECIATING along the gender, neotonic, and distributional axis.
x—> gender
y—> neoteny
z—> distribution
<Truth/Moral <— superiority—-inferiority—>False/Immoral>

THE STRATEGIC VALUE OF LATENESS.
(ON PUTIN BEING LATE)
Believe it or not, it is the single best operational security tactic you can make, because very few if any of us can remain on high stress alert for an hour without demonstrating avoidance behavior.
It also guarrantees your time is not wasted by the organizers and staff of the meeting.
It also guarantees that you have people’s attention when you arrive.
It also exhausts peoples excitement in hoping to get your attention.
It also buys you time to rehearse key points with your team without planning a session to rehearse key points with your team. I always role play meetings with staff before hand.
I have practiced strategic lateness and voting with my feet if a meeting is ineffectual my whole life.
While it does demonstrate power (value), its not an ego thing. It’s just what you learn after years of observation of people’s behavior.
