    SO, CURTPOSTING is now a meme that someone started (I don’t know who really) where you copy-paste some bit and modify it absurdly, humorously, sarcastically, or insultingly.

    (When I worked on truth? Crickets. When When I work on politics, a few chirps. When I worked on morality, a small chorus. When I work on religion – omfg – a cacophony. Why? the cognitive few the pre-cognitive masses. What you intuit is meaningless. Truth and capital are measurements, not opinions.)

    *I am a man. I have violence in me. I have wrath in me. I just own them. They do not own me.*

    I would wish all my brothers the same. Time is but an asset that we can spend or multiply. Violence is your first wealth. With violence we construct the possibility of all other forms of wealth. But to do so, we must own our violence, and own our wrath, and employ them only when producing more wealth than we consume with the exercise of our violence, our wrath, and our heady murder.

    When we have made more time, more wealth, more numbers with our violence, our wrath, and our heady murder, we have earned our joy in spending our violence on that which produces the greatest returns.

    (humor)

    —“Originally my wife considered me an “Aspie” which I protested. A short while later, after having asked her to write it down, I realized she meant “asshole” not “Aspie” so I was in full agreement but I did ask her expand on why I should care. Her only comment to that was, “what an asshole”.”–James Santagata

    Tell her you’re a man. Her ability to NOT be an asshole is a privilege created by men on her behalf.

    —“Hey Curt, when did you realize your “aspieness”? And when did your family?”— a friend

    I was always conscious of some significant difference, but I don’t remember when I understood it was the autism spectrum. I understood over a long period of time rather than in a moment.

    It’s more …. that because I was constantly suffering, I kept track of research in cognitive science, and then when the autism research became meaningful I realized that was the cause. ( I still subscribe to the dopaminergenic theory of cognitive evolution by the way – which is why I understand western ‘innovation’ or ‘restlessness’ as Hegel would say ).

    What I remember is the ‘peace’ it gave me, and that I lost all my frustration or guilt with other people and myself – and I learned to ‘love’ my gift of aspieness.

    This ‘trait’ is very common in my family and almost everyone has some aspect of it to some degree or other. My grandfather, My grandmother, me, my sister, my children all have some aspect of it.

    I have found that it makes my entire family happier to understand the cause of the difference.

    Another example of how psychology rather than biology was harmful: it made us think something was wrong, rather than ‘god intended us to be this way for a purpose’. Well it turns out that in fact, the spectrum of feminine psychosis/solipsism masculine analytic/autism is in fact how nature ‘intended’ so to speak.

  • Natural Law Was Hard Work

    People have no idea how hard it was to solve this series of philosophical problems. Today I can look back, especially back to 2009-2010, and in retrospect see the progress as remarkable. And my confidence in my ability to communicate these ideas, and debate them, at least with other philosophers (not teachers of philosophy, but practicing philosophers). I worked my ….. off. Most people cannot even imagine working on the same problem with interest from the age of perhaps twelve; with dedication from the age of 30, with every free moment from the age of 40, and full time at the exclusion of all else from the age of 50, with willingness to give up everything material in order to solve it. Yet, while solving the original series of problems was something I felt was challenging – it was the art of developing the language with which to communicate such ideas in terms accessible at least to the very bright, and well read that was the most difficult. Articulating, communicating, and defending these ideas has been more work than solving them. Why? Because there is so much antique assumption, language and technique in the inventory of man’s minds, and it is an inventory that people do not want to “write off” – loss aversion reigns.

  • Love.

    You think I’m passionate about the different regions of the USA? About Ukraine? About Poland? About every secessionist movement? About the people of Nigeria and Ghana? That’s just because it’s what I know well enough to argue about. LOOK: Nation, tribe, clan, family <-> father, Headman, Nobleman, Monarchy Only the west could develop rule without rulers: natural law. BUT EVERY PEOPLE CAN BE FREE BY USING IT. *NATIONALISM* Love thyself, love thy kin, then thy neighbor, then mankind. Because it is through this love we redistribute and bear the costs of persistence, and through constraint of our own against the parasitism upon others that we bear the costs of transcendence.
