Yes, Jewish thought leadership is largely behind the postwar destruction of western civilization, and there is a long literature on the subject, and it’s almost entirely true.
Is it s conspiracy? Lke all political movements it’s a conspiracy of common interest, perpetuating the Jewish group strategy, pursued with excellence and diligence by elites, which is what has caused their (entirely justified) persecution across time.
That (warfare) strategy is the use of undermining using social construction, of false promise, baiting into hazard, punder plausible deniability, escaping warranty and liability.
It is the only group that has institutionalized the female group evolutinary strategy.
Given that it’s the female strategy – and entirely biological – then the question is whether jewish group strategy is by design, by cultural evolution, or by genetic adaptation or all of the above. And it is likely all of the above.
We are unaware of the uniqueness of western civilization. So we don’t defend it.
My work explains the success of the west compared to all the rest, and why we are vulnerable to the jewsh method of warfare by the female strategy ofu ndermining, by the social constuction of false promise of freedom from the logical, physical, behavioral, cooperative, and evolutionary laws of the universe.
And I and others have documented the evolution of this war against western civlization from within.
The difference is we know how to stop it now by law rather than continuing the long tradition of exterminating them for their crimes.
Notice that almost all libertarians and conservatives emphasize moral contradiction, to incite guilt, as a violation of fairness, and harmony – while I emphasize irreciprocity, to incentivize retaliation, as a violation of non-aggression, licensing violence for correction. See?
1) They assume infinite value of cooperation (herd)
2) They pretend there is an ‘us’ rather than ‘us and them’ while they at as ‘us and them.’ (herd)
3) Yet there is no incentive to cooperate, so they are simply parasites that won’t let us separate to be free of them.
4) As parasites they break the contract for reciprocity and license predation, conquest, and if necessary ‘displacement’ or worse.
5) It’s time to return to speciation. Separate, Prosper, Re-Speciate.
“Fashion” outside of the top houses (which everyone knows: Gucci, RL, and the 20 or so others ) is presently a refuge of dysfunctionality – where they can hide under the pretense of skill and talent, and virtue signal like the rest of the neo-marxist movement: The cult of anti-beauty.
When urbanites are desperate for unearned attention.
When shallow novelty is their only means of achieving it.
When ugly is the only remaining novelty.
Because investment in beauty rather than novelty means you conform to excellence.
But you are unable to compete by excellence.
Either one produces innovations and adaptations that increase craftsmanship, aesthetics, and content or not. The rest is a measure of the ignorance of the public just like pseudoscience, sophistry, and supernaturalism: “Snake oil aesthetics”.
There is a very great difference between student, amateur, craftsmanly, and high art (art proper). And the difference between good art and bad art is rather obvious. Novelty does not art make.
Art is no more subjective than any other discipline. You either understand it or not, and can distinguish truth, adaptation, and innovation in craftsmanship, design, content(meaning) from fraud – or you can’t. The fact that you can be ‘sold’ fraud in art is no more surprising than that you can be sold any other fraud.
Until now I hadn’t disambiguated “display” in “Reciprocity in display, word, and deed” as one of the principle means of fraud (physical: magic > pseudoscience, verbal: sophistry > idealism, aesthetic:(Undue Praise > Critique), and imaginary: Occult > Supernaturalism(theology).
But it’s interesting that I can’t think of established terms for fraud by aesthetics – so perhaps that’s an interesting insight: that Female > Jewish > Marxist > Neo-Marxist Undue-Praise(Fraud) > Critique(Undermining), is one of the insights I hadn’t counted on.
This is crushing to the continuing marxist-pomo-pc/woke – anti-civilization – Anti-White movement.
No criminal practicing any form of previously tolerated fraud will accept and tolerate that they are cast as criminals.
(BTW: The philosophy of art was my first philosophical subject matter back in the late 70’s. It’s the first discipline to which I applied disambiguation down to the first causes: investment.)

Editor’s Note: If the reason is impossible then negotiation is impossible, and then compromise are impossible, so then what are the choices? Well, bribery, or violence. So we have to educate the left to avoid bribery or violence.Sense-Making is very different from Truth-Seeking. Because truth-seeking produces a single, parsimonious, convergent, consistent, correspondent, paradigm, vocabulary, and logic, that is consistent with the formal, physical, cooperative, and evolutionary laws. And the vast majority of Sense-Making is an attempt to find opportunities that are unconstrained by the formal, physical, cooperative, and evolutionary laws. ;). That what ‘you all’ are doing. Trying to find a cunning way of circumventing the formal (logical, truthful),
Propertarianism (The Formal Logic of Natural Law of Tort) is a formal logic, in particular, a formal logic of law (conflict-avoidance and settlement, preserving cooperation) and more generally the rest of the behavioral sciences. The formal, physical, behavioral, cooperative, and evolutionary sciences are not kind to man. Given that all of those laws are all but hostile to man – in that they impose a cost on us.
America is only a failed experiment because of the end of integration into western civilization. The end of western civilization was by design, construction, and brought to the USA, adapting and advancing the model used in Russia,. And we have a long history of the literature to prove it. We know who said it, who wrote it, who spread it, how they spread it, what organizations institutionalize, and why ‘you folks’ gobble it up – it’s genetic you can’t help it without training. (Jon Haidt explains why.)
The coming civil war is deterministic. The question is whether we can avoid it or control it. Our goal doe `8 months was to capture the dissident right, to create the promise of a threat, in order to obtain media attention, so that we could force a negotiation on a settlement, or at least start the honest discourse on the settlement of our differences. This failed because we were cancelled by the right for NOT using violence.
Our primary goal is to force the political sphere back into trades between the classes. The most common trade would be redistribution for constructive rather than destructive behavior. But everyone wants to ride for free except the middle class (American definition of middle class). Our method of doing so is to correct the holes in the anglo system of law (natural law of tort) such that the law cannot be abused, and we are forced into exchanges in the market for commons ew call government. THERE IS NO MORE MORAL OBJECTIVE POSSIBLE FOR MAN. We know this and we can easily demonstrate that every alternative is just theft fraud and deceit. If you think we are pursuing the immoral because we use painful truth – you err. We are seeking to deprive everyone and all of the license to lie to circumvent the use of polities for the production of commons by voluntary exchange thereby continuing human adaptive evolution and preventing the collapse that all other civilizations have become subject to.
We care about ending the Left’s institutionalization of lying. We don’t care about race, we care about the uniqueness of western civilization (the only civilization to discover, adapt to, and apply the tragedy of the laws of the universe, and Christianity to tolerate it), preserving our civilization, and the costs of doing so. The difference between races is only (substantively) in (a) universal human kin preference (b) vast difference in size of underclasses (c) differences in rates and depth of maturity (neoteny) and therefore aggression, (d) this generates different demand for norms, traditions, commons, institutions – therefore different polities. Will some people sort by race? Well, that’s likely. However, the reality is that we will continue to sort by tradition, class, and temperament. So the feminine (feels-empathy) left (See Haidt) and the masculine (reals-systematizing) right, can separate and speciate. And over time we will find compromises because we are no longer.
We have a lot of enemies. Darwin had enemies. The Anglo Empirical Revolution had enemies (Rousseau, Kant, Marx, et al.). Galileo had enemies. Aristotle and Socrates had enemies and Socrates was killed and Aristotle nearly. Throughout history, every single time we increase the suppression of irreciprocity those who benefit from it object. Throughout history whenever we increase the falsification of false promises (religion in particular) people who profit from those false promises (irreciprocities) object.
We are trying to recruit the few people who are capable of it. We use the adversarial, king of the hill method. This baits demonstrated behavior rather than reported behavior (that’s science). That’s why we have replicability and psychology, sociology, and political science have a reproducibility crisis.
Reciprocity requires Reciprocity in Display, Word, and Deed. Reciprocity consists of Voluntary, Productive, Exhaustively Informed, Warrantied, Transfer, Free of Externality that imposes costs upon the demonstrated interests.
Truth requires Testifiabliity: Realism, Naturalism, Identity, Consistency, Operational Possibility, Correspondence, Rational Choice, Reciprocity, Limits, Completeness, Warranty, and Liability.
Arguments are true or not. Statements are true or not. Whether or not they are offensive, desirable, likable.
When we are limited to the truth and reciprocity the only choice is peaceful exchange. While the market solves the problem of different personal wants and needs in CONSUMPTION. Only a market for polities solves the problem of groups have different wants and needs in the production of COMMONS.
We can measure at all times the reciprocity of all statements. That’s science. Science is not ideology. It consists of systemic acts of due diligence and warranty that one has eliminated ignorance, error, bias, and deceit, and can testify to the conclusions. Science is just the application of natural law outside of the courtroom. To claim we are practicing ideology is a lie. Science (Testimony) vs Denial->Deceit(Lying), Sophistry(Evasion), Ideology(Agitation), Philosophy(Persuasion), Theology(Command).
The left program has always consisted of freedom from Formal Laws (truth: postmodernism), physical laws (scarcity: marxism), behavioral laws (acquisitiveness, amorality, reciprocity, kin selection), social laws (woke-pc: human differences and the competing interests of sexes, classes, civilizations, races), Evolutionary Laws ( mutation, accumulated load, natural selection, neoteny, intelligence, the red queen).
If you find my formal logic of the behavioral sciences offensive, then that is your attempt to deny a painful truth that would force you to pay costs of reciprocity rather than sell false promise of freedom from the laws of the universe, that allows you to virtue signal, consume capital, and engage in theft and parasitism while claiming you’re moral or virtuous or of good character.
This is why we are offensive. We don’t just say you’re mistaken or you’re wrong, or we differ in preference – we correctly call you thieves. Because we aren’t practicing theology (escape), philosophy (accommodation), or ideology (power), but the science of law: decidability of the reciprocity of relations between individuals, groups, nations, civilizations and yes, races. No one likes the court. We’re practicing law: the formal logic of decidabilty in matters of conflict. Everyone leaves a courtroom dissatisfied. But because of it the polity survives.
If you can’t grasp this then you are unfit for the severity of the conversation that is required to determine our future peacefully rather than by the outcome of a war that is all but certain to occur, and a power vacuum that will drive the world into a catastrophe greater than the last, and another dark age of pseudoscientific ignorance that is less recoverable than the last dark age of superstition.
( Humor: BTW: Brandon doesn’t gossip. Why? We operate by incentives. We use value-neutral languages. So we just judge whether people are honest, truthful, and reciprocal, – or not. And most of the time we judge that we are all bots, running on genetic impulse, and fragmentary information, and desperately in search of truth, reciprocity, and security. )

—“Is it possible to have sustained global peace while maintaining a for-profit military industrial complex?”—Daniel @danielkenobe
Military expenditures are always a sunk cost. Private production of military is simply cheaper because private companies always make better use of capital due to natural human incentives.
—“Pleasure, happiness, meaning and intimacy are the signals of alignment in the physical, emotional, mental, and relational domains.”—Daniel @danielkenobe
It’s true. But that’s describing the absence of conflict and even the absence of costs of compromise. Human behavior is driven by fear of uncertainty, and discovery, capture, and preservation of opportunity. And we are always and everywhere in a field of reproductive and status competition. And evolution would end us if we stopped. (We have partly stopped natural selection already, and are paying the global, political, local, and personal costs of it.
—“Nature’s technology is emergent, self-organizing and self-evolving. The future of human technology and the built world will be as well.”—Daniel @danielkenobe
There is no demarcation between man, nature, climate, geology, solar system, and the universe. We are just a hyper-adaptive part of that universe. The only difference is that we are disproportionately expensive life forms, we have to disproportionately consume because of it, and we have to disproportionately produce heavily to preserve ourselves, and have enough memory that we can create consciousness, and use it to adapt faster than we can exhaust sufficient resources to result in self-extinction – until we don’t. We aren’t adapting. Why? Reproduction of the empirically unfit (unproductive (a sunk cost)).
—“Becoming is as deep to the nature of reality as Being is. They are inseparable.”—Daniel @danielkenobe
This claim is that mindfulness can be obtained by accommodating the universe as it is rather than seeking to deny, adapt to, transform, compete with, or conflict with it. In other words, it is a (somewhat correct) claim that happiness is best found in the personal and social construction of an environment of non-aggression and non-adaptation – just as Epicurus advised (not the stoics). It is also appealing to those unable to adapt fearful of compromise, competition, and conflict when there are those of us (Masculine) who revel in compromise, competition, and conflict as much as those (Feminine) who revel in their absence.

Instead, our enjoyment of one another EMOTIONALLY and PSYCHOLOGICALLY by overcoming that tragedy MATERIALLY is our only solace. This was the much-abused insight that Jesus succeeded in articulating in somewhat primitive terms in response to facing the Romans, Persians, and the truth that Indo-Europeans alone discovered: that the universe is a tragedy for man, and only through exhaustion of love can those lacking agency (power) tolerate life in under the stresses of natural selection. The Semites for ancestral reasons and demographic and economic necessity, alone, chose to double down on the supernatural and stagnation. The Europeans chose to continue with the primacy of man. The Chinese authority and harmony and eventually stagnation. The Indians similarly could not overcome demographics and chose castes and stagnated. The Persians were destroyed by the Semites and finished off by the Mongols and Turks. And the middle east sunk into dysgenia and decline. And Africa was either destroyed by the Muslims as well, is in the process of it, or their first substantive imperial consolidation was truncated by European conquest.
