  • The Animal Majority Provides Survival by Incremental Graceful Failure

    The evolutionary reason some of us have agency and most of us do not, is because reason is subject to temporal failure, and information is subject to intertemporal failure, and instinct provides a very successful method of graceful failure. Meanwhile selection for success of those with agency allows others to adopt new knowledge and understanding by imitation without abandoning their dependence upon intuition. This is the same reason we still have cheaters. While cooperation is most beneficial under ordinary circumstances, cheating (immorality), and predation (violence), are extremely valuable methods of graceful failure. The animal majority is insurance in case we fail. But they are not to be taken seriously whatsoever.

  • The Shift from physical constraint, to economic constraint, to credit constraint, to informational constraint.

    We always have had prisoners (prisons), slavery(military), serfdom(labor), freedom(middle class), liberty (professional class), and sovereignty(political class). We still have all those things. We have just shifted them from physical constraint, to economic constraint, to credit constraint, to informational constraint. All that changes is that it is far cheaper to rule people by each generational evolution of incentives, and they work far harder with each iteration of incentives.

    sigh.. Libertarianism is dead. Malinvestment continues, but it’s dead. Sophism in Marxist, Keynesian, Libertine, and NeoCon forms went out with Pinker in 2000, the 2008 Crash, HBD science and immigration. One cannot beg for liberty. Only use violence to impose one’s Sovereignty.

    And by the word “libertarian” I mean not a nationalist/fascist just FYI, as strange as that may sound to some these days.

    MYTHOLOGY MAKES NO PRETENSE

    Mythology makes no pretense, nor law, nor requests no compensation. I’m a fan of fairy tales, myths, legends, histories.

    They are necessary due to the intertemporal content of their information, and the increasing precision and depth we need as we accumulate knowledge. In the end we should find science and law. But not all of us can complete the journey.

    My problem is the pretense of truth.

    THERE IS NO “WE”

    There is no “WE”. There is us and ours, and you and yours, and they and theirs, and cooperation with you or they, under your or their parasitism, is no longer preferable to separation, war, or even extermination. It is a purely empirical question.

    Cooperation is only valuable until it is not. Under certain conditions cooperation is profitable – when it is not parasitic. Under other conditions predation is preferable to parasitism. The only question I have is whether separation, enslavement, or destruction is preferable. That is a purely empirical question.

    The subject of morality is a condition of cooperation outside of cooperation all questions are amoral. Under parasitism only predation is rational. It is a purely empirical question.
