  • Truth Claims Carry The Burden Of Construction

    If one makes truth claims, one carries the burden of demonstration. And, unfortunately, language is a terribly convenient tool for engaging in both deception and self deception. So to prohibit deception as well as self-deception, we must rely on a demonstration of knowledge of construction of terms, not just a knowledge of the use of terms. Just as we must rely upon the demonstration of internal consistency using logic, and external correspondence using tests. This means that if you make a truth claim using platonic language, you are not demonstrating knowledge of construction. And therefore is it is not possible to make truth claims under platonism. You are claiming truth which you cannot demonstrate the knowledge to claim. Which is unethical.

  • The Crime Of Statism : Conspiracy

    [I] disagree vehemently with Walter Block on ethics, but I agree with his proposition that Statism should be criminalized. Under Propertarianism it’s the crime of conspiracy. And can be brought to justice by any citizen against any other.

  • Justification vs Explanation

    (ethics) 1) Rothbardian ethics: How to justify both private property, and private theft by deception and parasitism. 2) Public Choice Theory (Social Democracy) : How to justify public theft by pseudoscience and parasitism. 3) Hoppe’s Anarcho Capitalism : How to justify private property, and eliminate the monopoly bureaucracy and the state. 4) Aristocratic Egalitarianism : How to resolve all *possible* conflicts via the common law, and eliminate all demand for the state – no justification is needed. All I did was base Hoppe’s deductions made from Argumentation on science and reason, rather than pseudoscience (praxeology) and rationalism. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute Kiev

    THE KINSHIP OF PROPERTY RIGHTS

    –“Aristocratic Egalitarianism Is The Kinship Of Property Rights. He who shall exchange the defense of property with me, I shall treated as my kin.”–

    (I think that’s the most reductive statement that I can make. )

    THE POPULAR WILL IS MURDEROUS

    Our civilization was built upon the work of three people: a prophet: Jesus, a philosopher: Socrates, and a scientist: Aristotle; two of whom were murdered under the popular will, and the third who barely escaped their attempt.

    (base upon quote from Madariaga)

    –“…our civilization rests on the death of two persons: a philosopher (Socrates) and the Son of God (Jesus), both victims of the popular will.”– Madariaga

  • THAT SOMETHING IS USEFUL DOES NOT MEAN IT IS TRUE Familiar and useful concepts.

    THAT SOMETHING IS USEFUL DOES NOT MEAN IT IS TRUE

    Familiar and useful concepts.

    It wasnt long ago that intellectuals could not imagine a universe without god.

    It wasnt that long ago that intellectuals could not imagine evolution: a world without intention.

    At present, intellectuals cannot imagine a world without the pretense of imaginary objects.

    Just how it is. 😉

    AMERICANS, EUROPEANS AND RUSSIANS?

    Americans are big, strong, idealistic, foolish and stupid. But they aren’t evil – and will make you prosper.

    Europeans are incompetent, weak, effeminate, self delusional and stupid. But they aren’t evil – and will make you prosper.

    Russians are strong, smart, corrupt and evil – and will make you poor, enslaved, and permanently subject to their corruption.
