    drug dealers, shamans, fortune tellers, oracles, gossips, and yes-men are more popular than physicists and judges.

    Isn’t free speech over truthful speech merely the left’s means of lying and propagandising with impunity?

    Truth is enough.

    It created the west.

    It restored the west from mysticism.

    It can restore the west from pseudoscience and deceit.

    We need only make all public speech testimony.

    Because that is its function.

    Perjury for false testimony in the commons.

  • Chivalry and Monogamy: The Female Price for Her Liberty

    [A] chivalrous man acts chivalrously in exchange for attention, grace, femininity, beauty and courtesy. The difference between the super-predator and the gentlemen-caretaker is merely the incentive provided to behave as such by women. There is no free ride for the female. Either we get attention and respect, or there is no reason to preserve the pretense of civility, and no currency in chivalry. Chivalry was invented by the church as a means of providing social status for service rather than predation. Feminism is a kleptocratic philosophy – they want everything without paying for it. Seemingly ignorant of the fact that it is just as easy to discipline, abuse, and enslave women as it is to treat them with care. Like marriage, chivalry is a price women pay for their relative liberty, despite their free passage through man’s universe. This is unpleasant, impolitic, but entirely true. Incentives matter.

  • Liberalism Isn’t Intellectual – It’s An Excuse For An Impulse

    —“Liberalism isn’t intellectual. It is merely the rabbit’s r-selected Reproductive Strategy, intellectualized in humans who exhibit it instinctually. Its only purpose is to exploit a resource excess in our society. This information kills Liberals, if you point it out to them, because it strips Liberalism of any intellectual justification, leaving it as merely a conglomeration of r-selected urges that K-selected humans oppose instinctually. This work is what we were waiting for, and it will alter our political debates forever.”—Anon Conservative.

    [I]n other words “all human language is negotiation on behalf of our reproductive strategies.” Humans start out rather androgenous, and we grow either male or female – from a lighter to a stronger version of each, in a spectrum from one end to the other. From r to k. From solipsistic to autistic.
