    EMOTIONS ARE REACTIONS TO CHANGES IN STATE OF CAPITAL

    To put a bit finer point on the argument below, Emotions are reactions to changes in state of “capital” that we either have, or might have: obtaining it, saving it, or holding options on past present and future utility of it. That utility can reduce our physical, intellectual, emotional, reproductive, or time costs. Our “values” influence us in the sense that the value we attribute to any given form of capital varies according to our gender, class, ability, condition, and inventory of existing capital.

  • Understanding Deflationary Truth

    (Core Concept) (Attn: SG Simmons) || Ordinary Language Grammar > Deflationary Truth > Performative Truth > *Testimonial Truth*. Deflationary Theories of Truth —“That assertions of predicate truth of a statement do not attribute a property called “truth” to such a statement.”— In other words, “I smell the scent of violets” has the same content as “it is true that I smell the scent of violets”. Performative Theory of Truth —“Peter Strawson formulated a performative theory of truth in the 1950s. Like Ramsey, Strawson believed that there was no separate problem of truth apart from determining the semantic contents (or facts of the world) which give the words and sentences of language the meanings that they have. Once the questions of meaning and reference are resolved, there is no further question of truth. Strawson’s view differs from Ramsey’s, however, in that Strawson maintains that there is an important role for the expression “is true” : specifically, it has a performative role similar to “I promise to clean the house”. In asserting that p is true, we not only assert that p but also perform the “speech act” of confirming the truth of a statement in a context. We signal our agreement or approbation of a previously uttered assertion or confirm some commonly held belief or imply that what we are asserting is likely to be accepted by others in the same context.”— Testimonial Truth (Natural Law > Testimonialism) (Doolittle) “I promise [statement], is not false (is true), and I warranty that I have done due diligence in each of the actionable dimensions possible for human falsification.” With Testimonial Truth assuming ‘warranty’, just as promissory truth assumes ‘I promise’, just as deflationary truths assume “is true”. So instead of “I promise [statement] is true, and warranty that I have performed due diligence necessary to make that promise of truth.” On simply states “[statement]”. It means that all speech must be interpreted as Testimony: So when we say “I smell the scent of violets”; …. in testimony that means: “I promise that I smell the scent of violets and that what I say is not false (is true), and I warranty that I have done due diligence in each of the actionable dimensions possible for human falsification.” And what’s not obvious is this: It is very hard to state a falsehood in this form of prose, and not be visibly accountable (to blame) for your words. And conversely, if you cannot state something in this form of prose, the question is why? And the answer can only be ‘fraud’ or ‘free riding’. TESTIMONIALISM Testimonialism provides the criteria (list of methods of due diligence) that enable us to claim we have performed that due diligence and can warranty our words. Next we need to understand Ordinary Language, Conflation, Inflation, and Deflation…. (continued)

  • Define Operationalism

    OPERATIONALISM? —“Define operation(alism)”— Let Me Google That For You: Scientific Method -> …. Operational Definition -> …. …. Operationalism (Physical Sciences) / …. …. Operationism (Psychology) / …. …. Intuitionism (Mathematics) / …. …. Praxeology (Economics) ie: “Actions”. See Wiki for simple versions, and Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy for advanced versions. HOWEVER, since all science must be falsificationary, all arguments to justificationism (positivism) are false. As such the value of operational language (grammar and semantics) is to force empirical (existential) description as a means of avoiding hand waving, obscurantism, suggestion, and deceit. OTHER CONCEPTS Critical Rationalism Critical Preference Justificationism Falsificationism Propertarianism (Vitruvianism, Acquisitionism, Propertarianism, Testimonialism, Natural Law) is all Falsificationary. In other words, like evolution, that which survives falsification is potentially true. And justification either is neutral or reduces the empirical (measurable) content of an argument. VIA NEGATIVA (FALSIFICATION) VS VIA POSITIVA (JUSTIFICATION) So imagine a pair of sculptors, one working in stone, subtracting (falsificationism), and the other working in clay, adding, (justificationism). The two must match, or one, the other, or both is false. In other words, just as the only test of production is a voluntary exchange, the only test of truth is survival in the market for competition.
