Instead, a host of intellectuals during the late 19th through mid 20th tried and failed. But since that time we’ve had computer science (existential) instead of mathematics (ideal), and cognitive science (existential) instead of psychology (pseudoscience), and economics (real) instead of sociology (pseudoscience). There are lots of shoulders of giants to stand upon in the late 20th and early 21st when I’m working. It’s possible to create strictly constructed law on one hand that is testable by computer software, and a chain of dependency that is testable by computer, and to provide the law, prosecutors, lawyers, judges, and the jury with a set of tests for truthful speech – which cannot be performed by computer. Law of tort is quite good really. Legislation and regulation are reasonably good in the anglo (common law) tradition. We just need these tools, universal standing in matters of the commons, thereby ending disintermediation by the state, and providing a via negativa means of competition (court) in addition to the via-positiva means of competition (markets). Now, increase the definition and scope of property (see property-in-toto) to the full suite of things that people act to invest in producing whether by expenditure of forgone opportunity, or expenditure of time, effort, or resources, (including manners, ethics, morals, norms, commons, capital et all) and it is very hard for special interests (and usurpers) to survive. And even more so, nearly impossible to seek rents (more on that another time.)

    • Eradicate false and ir-reciprocal commercial, financial, economic, political, and informational speech in the commons.
    • Restore libel and slander.
    • Prohibit baiting into moral hazard in the law.
    • Replace copyright with creative commons.
    • Eliminate consumer interest (yes, really, and it’s not hard).
    • Privatize (contract out) all bureaucratic functions.
    • Replace private pensions with public (they aren’t possible anyway in current and future economies)…. meaning adopt the singapore model of ‘involuntarily buying insurance to protect your peers from your late age poverty’.

    Much, more detail, but all of it is rather ordinary. I can’t write twenty pages here but just take it for granted that I’ve worked through these ideas in painful detail. We can depoliticize, de-propagandize, eliminate fraud and deceit in every aspect of public life, restore the civic society, halve the time people must work to pay off homes, drastically reduce the cost of education, and dozens of other great improvements and all it will do is end parasitism by the political, bureaucratic, and financial classes.

But I undrestand very clearly, that developing agency depends on the biological ability to do so, the market demand to do so, and the discipline to do so. So I see the elephant as a very simple machine, and the rider (consciousness) as a tool with which the elephant identifies opportunities, negotiates cooperation and executes conflict. In other words I see all we think and do as JUSTIFYING the elephant. And that very,very few of us are fully human and able to transcend the elephant. And that propertarianism is a means, like stoicism, like mathematics, of transcending the elephant – or rather COMPLETING THE TRANSCENDENCE OF MAN. It is only really becoming clear to me that the time I spent on artificial intelligence – realizing that at the time it was a dead end – is the enormous advantage that I have over my philosophical contemporaries. And it is the reason that Searle and Hayek have been so ‘right’, and why I hope to make people understand that Turing, Chomsky’s application of turing, Popper and the operationalists were so close. All learning is continuous recursion. Epistemology and neurology are the same subject.

    (FB 1548113366 Timestamp) THE 21ST CENTURY AND CURRENT REVOLUTIONS Um. Let me help you. This is what modern revolution looks like from the outside:

    1. Rapid continuous runs, disrupting infrastructure.
    2. Disrupting transport, commerce, trade and first responders.
    3. Starting fires, breaking water and gas, mains.
    4. “Deplatforming” academics, the media, and politicians.
    5. Watching the ‘urban plantations’ collapse in chaos.
    6. Lots of barbecues, parties, and other celebrations with many new friends. Pretty much all the time.
    7. All the Loot you can carry.
    8. Commandeering a new vehicle to transport it – and you.
    9. Getting paid 250k each to go home.
    10. Telling fish stories about your adventures until you’re old and grey.

    And of course, there is the alternative of the status quo. This is what revolutionaries around the world are doing. They are not trying to get control of government and to use it for territorial expansion. Because the era of 4GW is here, and the Peace of Westphalia has ended, and the western way of war cannot concentrate forces on men in sneakers, flip flops, among the citizenry.

In retrospect it isn’t complicated but in the process it was chaos. But now we know. Truth is enough.

    (FB 1548300459 Timestamp) ROTHBARD’S GHETTO ETHICS VS WESTERN SOVEREIGN ETHICS Rothbardian (jewish) traditional ethics require only voluntary exchange. Under Jewish ethics, usury, baiting into moral hazard, verbal fraud, blackmail, bribery, rent seeking, corruption are ethical because they are voluntary. Volition is the only test. The ethics of “What can i get away with?” The low trust ethics of the middle east. Under western (germanic) traditional ethics all of these are unethical, because they violate reciprocity – which aside from volition, requires warrantied due diligence that a transfer is also productive, fully informed, and free of negative externality. The ethics of “i have gotten away with nothing.” The high trust ethics of northern europeans. So when you dont understand something ask for clarification. Dont shame me for not writing in crayon. And do one better, and assume you’re abysmally ignorant before you assume I err. Cheers.
