    THE LIMITED BENEFITS OF SCALE

    1) the per capita advantage of cost of defense. Offset by the opportunity for high risk military expansion and its consequences.

    2) the per capita advantage of credit expansion. Offset by the opportunity for high risk credit expansion and its consequences.

    3) the per capita advantage of trade negotiation. Offset by the opportunity for high risk price reduction and its consequences.

    As in all things, the equilibrium is better than the extreme.

    And it is very hard to measure such things.

    “THESE PEOPLE ARE OUR FOOD, NOT OUR ALLIES”

    I told you a few months ago I had come to a suspicion that I needed to think about a bit before bringing in to the public discourse. But that I think is simply ‘true’ and the truth of which will restore ‘honesty’ to western civilization, and provide clarity into eastern civilization. And that we might want to change our strategy one way or the other in response to this ‘uncomfortable’ conclusion. So over the next few weeks I’m going to take the controversial position of explaining this hypothesis, which should probably sound obvious to conservatives but which will require me to attack competing ideas for a bit. We fail when we overreach. The chinese stagnate because they do not. But they were not defeated by abrahamism and without the USA to assist abrahamism the chinese will defeat it there. And they will stand alone. Unless we restore the west to not over-reaching.

    —“For f–k’s sake these people are our food, not our allies.”—

    Well, they certainly produce our food, even if we don’t eat them directly.

    DEAR LIBERTARIANS: WELCOME TO THE REAL.

    You are currently in the heavy-resistance phase, as the entire cosmopolitan program comes crashing down, including the marxist-postmodern, libertine-libertarian, and neo-conservative, as well as the social democratic and classical liberal. That is because all the enlightenment views of man and all the enlightenment counter-reactions against the progress of the scientific method (criticism) by various methods of justification(justificationism) have been demonstrated to be false.

    Man was not oppressed by aristocracy. He was a beast that a small minority of gifted martial aristocrats domesticated from animal, to slave, to serf, to freeman, to citizen resulting in the diminution of the lower and increase in the middle and upper middle classes through reproductive suppression, war, starvation, and aggressive hanging.

    Man is a rational actor for whom cooperation is possible and generally superior choice. But at all times he chooses moral or immoral action by little more than either habit or accounting of consequences.

    And as such we invented the natural common law of reciprocity since no matter how complex our social orders, all conflicts over demonstrated investments are decidable by tests of reciprocity.

    There is but one epistemological method and that is the the market for competition for consistency between the dimensions, and the market for competition for consistent application in reality.

    And because of that competition, both truth and lie can survive through continuous innovation. If only because it is cheaper to produce deception than truth. And the most powerful incentive to produce truth is to defeat ignorance, falsehood and deceit.

    Cheers.

    THE PRESS ELITE UNDERSTANDS: A COLD CIVIL WAR

    —“Bernstein said one of the big difference between Watergate and now is “that we are in the midst of a cold civil war in this country.” He expanded on that idea, saying that there is a political and cultural civil war and all of our reporting is taking place in the context of that cold civil war. And nothing quite like that existed at the time of Watergate.”—-

    Now, to turn up the heat.

    The investment in violence by a society is not determined by its choice of non violence, but by the utility of violence against that society by its neighbors. The market determines the demand for violence. One can no more escape market demand for violence, than market demand for food, water, air, and land.

    Violence is just an asset like any other.

    Violence is neither good nor bad.

    Only its uses are good or bad.

    Those who cannot produce and spend violence well, are always and everywhere mastered by those who do.

    The optimum use of violence is to prevent all impositions of will no matter how well intentioned, such that only voluntary exchanges remain.

  • THE ONLY CULT YOU NEED OR WANT IS THE OATH OF THE INITIATIC BROTHERHOOD OF WARRI

    THE ONLY CULT YOU NEED OR WANT IS THE OATH OF THE INITIATIC BROTHERHOOD OF WARRIORS

    Men.

    Your only western ‘cult’ is the oath of the militia: the brotherhood of warriors. This cult depends upon reciprocity. And reciprocity upon truth, trust, sovereignty, contract(oath).

    If you don’t understand what I am doing, it is this: I am denying you the comforting lies that you, your family, your kin, your nation, your race can survive under any other cult. That there is any means of survival and transcendence of you, your people, and your cult other than the cult of the militia.

    This cult is not a fantasy. Not an ideal. Not a utopia. You must make oaths to real men, with real flaws, and choose leaders from real men with real flaws. You must hold to your oath despite the flaws of real men, and follow orders from the flawed men who we choose as our leaders. You must take real risks. Develop real skills. Perform real work. Fight real wars. Transform real nature.

    All other cults in this world were developed to defeat your cult of warriors from without and within. From enemies, from our underclasses, from our women. Every single one. Organized religion was born to oppose us. To defeat us. And to exterminate us.

    And if you have invested in one of those cults that evolved for the single purpose of your defeat, it is my purpose to cleanse you of it. To cure you of the infection that you chose, or you inherited, or that was imposed upon you.

    We are all imperfect. We are all flawed. We are all unequal. We all must compromise. We all must face and overcome our weaknesses. But through our oath to one another we grant one another reciprocal insurance of sovereignty, and insure that sovereignty by through, word, and deed.

    Now we may invoke the honor of our own, of our fathers, of our ancestors, of a common hero, or that embodiment of our heroes across the ages in fictional gods. But this tells us nothing but the age of our oath, and the number and time scale of those who we give our oath to – living or dead.

    Everything uniquely good in the Western man and his civilization was present three thousand five hundred years ago. Every advancement of the west was made under that oath. Every discovery, innovation, advancement the consequence of that oath – and nothing more.

    We are men. We are the gods-in-making. And we alone have found the means of transcendence from beast, to man, to god: Truth, Oath, Sovereignty, and the extension of kinship love to our brothers in arms. And together, against the forces of man, woman, beast, and nature, we fight a war of transcendence. And the honor of having made our contribution to doing so.

    So, brothers, will we take up our arms, and save ourselves, our families, our kin, our tribes, our nations, and the transcendence of man from the Third Conquest of the West, or will we fall victim to the cults that have been the source of each dark age, each conquest, each gradual reduction of our realm?

    Any man who will fight with me shall be my brother.

    And as brothers we will restore our lands, restore our people, restore our civilization, and return to the transcendence of man, and the fulfillment of our chosen destiny as as gods.

    There is no higher purpose available to man. Available to our people, your kin, your family, nor available to you.
