  • Are People Outside Of The Us Amazed That Americans Can Vocally Dislike The President?

    Well, I have no idea. We all gossip and complain about our politicians. Some countries punish it. Some countries like the USA encourage it. It’s part of american nature to complain about government. I find chinese people of a certain character think it’s odd. Russians understand that they must be respectfully cautious. But I think for most Westerners it’s just part of life in a Democracy. In Ukraine people complain constantly about ALL politicians and bureaucrats – and they should.

  • Why Are So Few Scientists Libertarian? Is There An Element Of Government Funding That Has Been Indispensable For The Advances In Science We Have Seen Since The Last Century?

    Have you noticed how few intellectuals are libertarians? Have you noticed that oddly, all books on libertarianism are entry level, and none of them advanced?

    Libertarianism had an early flowering in the sixties and seventies. But by the 80s almost all had abandoned it, and at present only the few people associated with the Mises Institute’s pseudoscientific propaganda remain. The reason being that it’s a dead end.

    The general intellectual progress through the ideologies is Classical Liberal (Hayek/Haslitt) > Libertarian (Rothbard) > Anarcho Capitalist (Hoppe) > Dark Enlightenment (Mencius) > Propertarianism (Strictly Constructed Natural Law Classical Liberalism)

  • Is Russia Our Enemy?

    Russia is not so much an enemy as Russia and Russians feel somewhere between a messianic and religious conviction that they must restore Orthodox civilization, and that the west has consistently prohibited their efforts – and the truth is we were wrong and the russians were right.

    Russia is paying a very high price for the Bolshevik and Soviet Eras.

    We were wrong in entering WW1. Wrong in entering WW2. Wrong not to defeat the communists in China, and wrong not to immediately include the Russians in NATO. We were right to crush Saddam Hussein but wrong to try to create a democracy, rather than let the existing peoples replace him.

    Russia merely screwed up invading Ukraine. She could have easily bought all of ukraine other than Galacia (in the west) for a song, and now she has made herself a threat again.

  • ALL MEN HAVE VOICE, BECAUSE ALL MEN HAVE VIOLENCE (read this) All men have influ

    ALL MEN HAVE VOICE, BECAUSE ALL MEN HAVE VIOLENCE

    (read this)

    All men have influence. They just assume that means voice rather than violence. But one can ignore voice. One can compromise with protesters. But one cannot ignore or compromise when dead.

    As I told the Ukrainian people, at every opportunity, and repeatedly. The only reason you have bad people in government is because you don’t kill enough of them that only good people remain.

    All men are born with a natural wealth of violence, the application of which we lend to the state, to exercise on our behalf, in a division of labor.

    But when the government no longer acts in the interests of ourselves, our families, our kin, our tribes, and our nations, then it is just another form of war, by slow means of attrition. It is the most dishonest and dishonorable of weapons of war.

    So take back your violence from the parasites who war against you, apply your violence once again to the incremental suppression of parasitism and predation, and take one step closer to the imposition of the Natural Law of Reciprocity, beyond which none may venture without restitution, punishment, and bloody constraint.

    It seems that the long line of Aryans, Europeans, Germania, Celts, Itals, Hellenes, Romans, Franks, Anglo Saxons, and Americans must once again, as we must every few generations, overthrow those who usurp our natural law, by one excuse or another, and thereby restore and reinforce the contract of employment for those whom we hire to rule justly, by restoring the terms of contract to the only moral terms of for rule that are possible: the natural law of reciprocity of sovereign men, and its incremental improvement and application by the judge discovered common law of testimony before a jury of our peers, and the voluntary exchange in markets for association, reproduction, cooperation, production, production of commons, and production of polities, in the only civilization to discover rule of law: the eradication of discretion in the adjudication of differences.

    Do you ancestors, your family, your kin, your tribe, your nation, and your people justice and continue the costly investment that they have made for 3500 years, in raising you, your kin, your nation and all mankind out of superstition, ignorance, tyranny, poverty, disease, and dysgenia.

    Kill those who would prey, steal, destroy, and commit genocide against you and your people. Kill them until they stop coming. Kill them until they stop trying. Kill them until they stop scheming. Kill them until they remember nothing but the great crimes that they have committed against you, yours and ours.

    Truth is enough. Restore Natural Law. Impose strict construction, decidability, and our standing before the courts in matters public and private. Extend the involuntary warranty on products and services, to the involuntary warranty against information placed into the commons. Defend not just our genes, not just our families, not just our property, not just our territory, not just our water, not just our air,but the very information that surrounds us as do the rest.

    Restore our accountability in both word and deed. Prohibit word and action for which a man may not perform restitution in matters private or public. Demand due diligence against fraud, as well as ignorance, error, bias, wishful-thinking, suggestion, overloading, fictionalism, and outright deceit.

    Let no man in word or deed repeat the crimes of the prophets and Abrahamists, or the secular prophets we call the philosophers of deceit, or the secular frauds we call social pseudoscientists – all of whom who have attempted as they have in the ancient world, to promise a heaven in this world or the next by the systematic advocacy of parasitism by a host of methods and contrivances, at the cost of civilization and the transcendence of man through continuous domestication of his parasitism.

    Every dark age has been preceded by a mass migration of the undomesticated animal man to the lands of those tho speak truthfully either in China or Europa. We must never allow this again.

    Never again. Truth is enough. Truth is enough if demand it or violence.

    Use your wealth of violence. Transcend yourself. Transcend your people, and transcend mankind in the process.

    Kill them all until none remain.

    Sic Semper Tyrannis.

    Deus Vult.

    WE SHALL, IN SHORT ORDER, BRING YOU TO HEEL, OR BREAK IT ALL TO PIECES.

    —“We aren’t taking to the streets. We aren’t rallying or protesting. We’re going to impoverish, starve, freeze, silence and immobilize you. We’re coming for you in your homes, in your places of work, while you’re traveling, for your wives, husbands, parents, uncles, cousins, and those who come to defend you. Because we do not want your approval, or your submission, but your defeat, removal, and punishment. You have participated in the attempted genocide of our people. You must pay restitution. And you have never seen fifth generation civil war with this era’s possibilities of command and control. No empire in history has ever been this fragile, and your confidence in its continuity is mistaken. We shall, in short order, bring you to heel, or break it all to pieces.”—-

    THE PROBLEM OF SCALE

    by Joel Davis on William Butchman

    To generate a social order from a rule of ethics requires both hierarchical construction (politics) and the calculation of utility distribution (law), and these are both subject to economies of scale.

    As your hierarchy grows in size it must incorporate a greater scope of cultural differences to facilitate successful negotiation between each, therefore creating greater concessions and therefore giving each citizen less of what they individually want, reducing reciprocity between the state and the citizen, while at the same time the capacity to accurately calculate reciprocity is diminished due to requiring divergent formulas to accommodate these cultural differences.
