  • Is Being Racist Edgy?

    You know, I have built a reputation out of answering the uncomfortable questions using the language of economics to explain human evolution, development, behavior, and thought.

    And providing uncomfortable but true information is always ‘edgy’. And working on ‘edgy’ subjects draws attention.

    Despite writing rather prolifically against racism (particularly racism against whites), I have ended up as a bit of a …. spokesman on the matter, quite by accident.

    And honestly it’s not something I care for.

    The truth is I hate the subject, I don’t care if I’m edgy, I just want to know the truth. And the truth is that every single claim of racism is just a postmodern form of ridicule, shaming, gossiping and rallying.

    The fact is that steriotypes are the most accurate measure in the social sciences.

    So what will we do to change the fact that stereotypes are profoundly accurate descriptions of behavioral distributions among people with similar features. The reason is very simple: the scale of the underclasses of warmer climates that did not undergo manorialism is larger than the scale of the underclasses of the colder climates that went through manorialism (west europe, and east asia).

    Agrarianism was a genetic meat grinder. It made a profound difference. And the plague, and hte fact that europeans hanged so significatn proportions of the population every year, and the east asians (chinese) used the axe with equal profligacy let the middle classes move downward and create higher median distributions of abilities and behaviors.

  • Suppose I Am The Prime Minister Of A Low Income Insular Island Country Of About 2 Million People. What Are Policies Needed To Achieve The Same Economic Success Of South Korea Rapidly?

    1. Learn from “Duarte, Putin, Mao” and hang the criminals and drug users.
    2. “Eliminate” everyone with an IQ under 95 – quickly, or at least sterilize them.
    3. Limit reproduction to married couples who own property, or face prison and fines in the chinese model.
    4. Replace your entire judiciary with American Lawyers. They are cheap and americans are almost impossible to bribe – the law is our ‘religion’ so to speak.
    5. Have those lawyers draft an uninterpretable (strictly constructed) constitution by which to adjudicate laws.
    6. Do not under any circumstances produce anything like a democracy.
    7. Instead, give universal standing to the citizenry to file civil suits against any member of the government or the bureaucracy.
    8. Declare yourself and your family a constitutional monarchy bound by that constituion so that no one can use politics to obtain status, only economic service of others.
    9. Give yourself 10% of GDP to spend on the commons (the territory) at your own discretion.
    10. Give the people 10% of GDP as redistribution (‘dividends’).
    11. Perform a Domesday Inventory, and produce a single universal title registry and implement it using blockchain technology.
    12. Use the treasury to bypass the financial sector and issue debit cards to adult citizens, so that they can spend their ‘dividends’ directly as income.
    13. Use the treasury to bypass the consumer credit system, and issue loans for fixed capital goods (houses, etc) at the rate of inflation for one half of whatever american loan durations are. For capital goods, (cars, appliances) at one percent. Do not issue credit for consumption purposes.
    14. Use the 13 week month in your accounting, the overhead cost of the 12 month year is absurd.
    15. Take a small percentage of all sales transactions, and financial transactions.
    16. Take income and property taxes that are the lowest that you can survive on.
    17. Create a tax haven, and a central bank, and a fiat currency.
    18. Keep banks open seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
    19. Teach everyone english with native british speakers, with extra emphasis on diction. Do the same with Emily Post’s Etiquette. It isn’t obvious to … ahem… the ‘common folk’ that etiquette is a test of your ability to respect other people’s property in all its forms.
    20. You will compete with Monaco in less than five years. (Really)
    21. Move to tourism to encourage large scale investment. You won’t have to. You will be buried in money.

    Remember that every person at the bottom is six times as costly as the people at the top. In america, already, ‘whites, jews and asians’ are a for-profit polity, and america would have no debt if limited to them. Single motherhood, and broken families, criminals, and drug users will destroy your economy, and the lives of your ‘good people’.

  • I Hate Racism And Denialism Is Just More Of It

    I thought racism was a stereotype, and that stereotypes were the most accurate measure in the social sciences, if not the ONLY accurate measure in the social sciences. (It is). I thought that median distributions of behaviors varied dramatically between races, subraces, classes, and genders, and that stereotypes were accuate measurements of such because they are almost impossible to change due to constant exposure to evidence. I thought that the Marxists Postmodernists who have engaged in this pseudoscientific nonsense that there are no differences between genders, classes, subraces, and races were trained in pseudoscience, and didn’t hold STEM degrees or demonstrate scientific testimony. Denial is just another form of lying. Pseudoscience is just another false religion. It’s stupid to treat individuals by the properties of a class. It is stupid to treat a class by the properties of an individual. It is sensible to treat a class by the properties of a class. It is sensible to treat and individual by the properties of the individual. I absolutely hate racism – and the one way to insure it is to deny our differences. Because it prevents us from dealing with the fact that it is not RACES that matter but the sizes of the middle and UNDERCLASSES in each of the races relative to host populations that matters. The upper classes and upper middle classes all get along fine – we are all Aristotelians, Anglo Rule of Law, and Mengerian Economists out of necessity in the preservation of our roles. And please stop hating on white people. We did drag all your ignorant, superstitious, impulsive, hard-laboring, impoverished, starving, diseased, and violent races, subraces, tribes, clans and families, out of your no less than five thousand years of primitivism against your will – all the while, kicking and screaming and complaining like you are now. And all your pseudoscientific pseudo-rational revisionist historicism can never change that fact. Be grateful. We don’t even want your appreciation. Just stop lying. It’s really, really, simple. You were not oppressed. You had failed. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute Kiev, Ukraine

  • Which Is A Bigger Problem In The Us Classism Or Racism?

    —-”Which is a bigger problem in the US classism or racism?”—

    Neither is a problem. Both are uncircumventable evolutionary, reproductive, social, economic, and political realities and necessities. Humans organize that is our principal ability, and our intelligence evolved only for the purpose of increasing the complexity of our cooperation – even across gender, family, clan, classes, tribes, nations(in the genetic sense), subraces, and races.

    The classes demonstrate different genetic, social, economic, and political abilities. Unfortunately everyone at the bottom quartile is six times as costly as everyone at the top two quartiles can compensate for.( the third quartile appears to be neutral or at least a tolerable loss.

    Those tribes, nations, subraces, and races unable to limit the reproduction of their underclasses (as have europeans and east asians through manorialism or extraordinary prosecution), or have expelled their underclasses (Ashkenazis) or have been able to concentrate sufficient capital to drag people out of permanent malthusian (population) and dysgenic(distribution) poverty.

    Those tribes, nations, subraces, and races unable to limit the reproduction of their underclasses, and who have not engaged in martial, juridical, or economic (manorialism), have ended up as the levant, india, southeast asia, and now south america, with underclasses so large that they cannot be organized into a voluntary organization of production capable of producing marketable goods.

    Worse, in the current era, as the low hanging fruit of petrochemical energy, mechanical technology, and now computational utility has been captured, likewise, labor has evaporated as a market good, mechanical capital has dramatically depreciated as market good, and at present calculation labor (what we call clerical and white collar work) is depreciating as a market good. And without markets to provide information to us, we cannot cooperate at scale. And there are few if any multipliers on service provision.

    All technology can be implemented quickly and easily and the marginal competitive advantage between groups eliminated.

    So as the world continues to adopt the inventions of western civilization – not the least of which is Aristotelian (scientific) reasoning, and the Anglo (Germanic) natural law of torts, and the Italian(Templar) method of banking, the relative standard of living of peoples will decline, because the only competitive advantage a population has, is genetic.

    The primary competitive advantage that does not produce regression into Malthusian and dysgenic poverty is genes. And the difference in one standard deviation is so profound it is the HIGHEST POSSIBLE RETURN for any group – as well as for all mankind.

    The data is in. The 20th century experiment with social economic and political pseudoscience is over. We misspent that capital on reversing at least 1300 years of improving human genetic, cultural, and institutional capital.

    There are three known magic bullets. A battery with the energy density of gasoline. The reduction of the size of the underclass through one child policies for the underclasses, and the development of artificial general intelligence that means he with the most capital and the lowest population wins.

    The individual human is quickly approaching not only malthusian and genetic equilibrium but political, economic, social, damage. We outran the productivity of nature and resorted to farming. We outran the productivity of farming and turned to industry. We out ran the productivity of industry and turned to information. There is nowhere to go beyond information, and as such the only gains are to be obtained from the reduction of negative human capital.

    Via-negativa in all things at scale. Once you maximize returns on any set of operations, the only improvement possible is to remove costs and defects.

    More is not better. Fewer people with more, is better than more people with less.

    That’s unavoidable.

  • If White People Came From Neanderthals, Why Do They Have Such Nice Features?

    —-”If white people came from Neanderthals, why do they have such nice features?”——

    White features, like East Asian features, are due to paedomorphic selection (read about it). Largely by decreasing testosterone, it appears. Which is also how we domesticate and produce paedomorphic traits in domesticated animals. The difference is that east asians evolved from an earlier branch out of africa, and progressed even farther (hence reduced sexual development) and migrated from the south while whites evolved (apparently) either from a later group, a different group, or as the product of groups interacting between africa, the levant, and europe, causing greater competition than was available in east asia.

    White people do not come from Neanderthals. A very small number of West Eurasians PRIOR TO BEING WHITE reproduced with Neanderthals – and most likely in the Levant.

    White skin developed around 20K years ago, and Neanderthals were extinct long before that. White people in their current condition developed sometime before the indo european expansion (the inventors of Horse, Chariot, and Bronze) around 4000BC, and likely in the european plain between poland and european russia (the urals) in that borderland that is now Ukraine.

    1 – West Asian europeans with darker skin were exterminated in europe.
    2 – White people with black hair were almost exterminated in europe.
    3 – White people with brown eyes were partly exterminated in northern europe.

    In other words, (the data from last year confirms) the Yamna expansion appears to have not been one of continuous integration, but outright replacement.

    Whites – at least northern european whites (North Sea) – are super-predators, even among humans. Which is why everyone fears them. (See Hansen). Probably because of our relatively high detachment compared to other genetic groups. (Which accounts for certain psychological benefits and defects common in Europeans: psychopathy and neuroticism in the extremes.) The only people close to europeans in evolutionary progress are east asians and they have lower verbal acuity in exchange for higher non verbal acuity. (We tend to think of the japanese as at least equals – and that is ‘rare’.)

  • Why Do Some Americans Call Europeans “communist”?

    A lot of answers, but americans actually don’t know why everything european sounds ‘communist’.

    1. europeans trade opportunity for certainty. Americans and people who come to America trade certainty for opportunity.
    2. America was invented in modern language as a ‘third way’, between the aristocracy(authority) and the church(communism), by creating a middle class (entrepreneurial) order consisting of nothing but markets.
    3. American law, and our culture, and much of how americans think ‘differently’ is because we view exchanging certainty for opportunity as ‘limiting our freedoms’. All our wealth goes to people who are entrepreneurs (look it up, its the highest paying occupation). Anyone can become an entrepreneur here and everything is set up to assist you.
    4. In particular, our law is back-loaded. Meaning that there is nothing to constrain you up front, and we handle exceptions (failures) through litigation (expensively). This is one of the primary reasons for rates of american innovation. (It is nearly impossible to do business in europe compared to america. I still have a UK company and it’s one hundred times more expensive and difficult for absolutely no reason.) Continental law is front loaded in the old (French) tradition, and this, and the heavy taxation serve as a barrier to innovation – especially technical innovation. In this sense, European law evolved out of bureaucracy and into high capital which is possible to organize in the Germanic countries.
    5. Everyone talks about medical care and this is chimera. The problem is that we haven’t modernized our laws to prevent medical bankruptcy, and provided catastrophic care. Why? BECAUSE YOU CAN GET IT HERE FAST instead of waiting, and we don’t want to lose that. We have medicaid and medicare and EVERYONE can get health care. Our medicine is more expensive because there is more of it, it is faster, it is better. We don’t want to lose that. (Spoken as someone who has endured the arcane british system). So we need to revise our laws, and increase catastrophic care. But supplying more of an expensive good leads to its abuse and overconsumption.

  • Why Is Facebook Racist And Why Does It Make Life More Difficult?

    —-”Why is Facebook racist and why does it make life more difficult?”—-

    1 – Mark is a left wing outsider from NY.
    2 – Media people treat gossip as a skill and virtue and good, and are draw to media occupations. They are outsiders in productive industries.
    3 – FB hires mostly young inexperienced people and in particular benefits from immigration of people who are outsiders.
    4 – FB is a bit of a cult (as are Google, Amazon, certainly wikipedia and the academy.)
    5 – Once you consume the upper classes (he originally did) you can only expand the scope of people in your company by creating increasingly safer information environments for lower and lower (more easily offended) people from information that they disagree with.
    6 – In other words, it’s personal, cultural, and economic incentives.

    BUT WHY?

    Facebook, Google, Amazon, Wikipedia, Quora, and the Academy, the School System, the government bureaucracies, and in particular leftist politicians, all have greater incentives to serve inoffensive, bias-confirming, Dunning-Kruger-satisfying, mythology to their customers.

    People rarely want the truth. They want an excuse to feel their status is higher than it demonstrably is given market conditions. The human accounting system of self work is status. Self perceived, and other perceived. In fact, much of television and advertising exists to appeal to this vulnerability. Marxism Postmodernism as well as the Abrahamic REligions, all appeal to this weakness of desiring to be more genetically, reproductively, socially, economically, and politically ‘higher’ than they are. This is why hyperconsumption works. We do not teach people piety in the abrahamic sense, or mindfulness in the ‘woo’ sense, or stoicism in the scientific sense.

    When Marxism (The myth of the equality of the classes) was no longer intellectually possible by the 1950’s or 1960’s – despite the pseudosciences of Marx, Freud, Boaz, and the Frankfurt school, the Postmodernists (largely the French under Derrida and Americans like Rorty) changed the propaganda (“Institutional Narrative”) from Classism as the means by which the underclasses could not change their status due to (nonexistent) oppression, to Identity and Racism as the means by which the underclasses could not change their status due to (nonexistent) oppression.

    Remember that Marx, Boaz,Freud, and Frankfurt School – and even Cantor, are Pseudoscientific movements that fed the classes of previous farm labor and domestic service, newly-risen to consumers by the industrial (capitalist) revolution, a vast set of lies, in order to drown out the rather obvious work of Maxwell, Darwin, Weber, Pareto, Durkheim, Spencer, Nietzsche. And they used the same techniques as did the Abrahamic religions (Islam was a heresy of Christianity, and Christianity a Heresy of Judaism, and Judaism a reaction to the invention of reason) to form an counter-revolution against the aristocratic, legal, and scientific revolution provided by the Romans, Greeks, and Persians. So the first dark age was created by Magical Religion, and the second dark age will either be created by reemergent Magical Religion or by Magical Knowledge we call “Pseudoscience”.

    Instead, we are —quite empirically — more or less desirable as mates, friends, coworkers, members of a polity, and citizens in a state, because we are more or less sociable (costly/rewarding), we are more or less reproductively desirable, more or less useful to one another in daily life, we are more or less useful to each other in production, more or less useful in organizing people to produce commons, and place more or less costs upon each other in social, economic, and political organization.

    In particular, in humans, the more symmetric, pedomorphic, aquiline, features are more desirable regardless of race, subrace, and for very good evolutionary reasons: easier detection of superior biology, easy detection of longer life, easy detection of more amenable termperaments, because of longer time for mental and social development, by the delay of sexual development, and lower depth of sexual development. In other words, greater pedomorphism and lower impulsivity and higher trust, and longer development cycles, create greater opportunity for cooperation, and the outsized returns of cooperation versus even the most capable individual.

    And among the Races, Subraces, Tribes, Clans, Families, we some have been more successful at eliminating the underclasses and thereby ‘domesticating’ themselves as we have domesticated animals. And some have been less successful at eliminating the underclasses, and have not domesticated themselves as we have domesticated many animals. As such the size of the underclass is much larger, and the median much lower, and therefore the institutions, traditions, morals, ethics, norms, habits, and manners are those that are suitbile to the majority.

    And this manifests itself largely in the ability to learn (which decreases rapidly at every seven to ten points of IQ, and in the ability of people to cooperate on increasingly complex divisions of labor while forgoing opportunities for self reward.

    And you can’t find evidence anywhere in the human world to contradict this that isn’t merely economic necessity among the most destitute and lonely.

    This is reality.

    So basically all companies, states, and religions that are not regulated by laws against the spread of falsehood, will harm a population by spreading falsehoods and feelgoods in interest of attracting revenues (companies), votes and taxes(states), and bodies(religion).

    ( Thankfully it is possible, at least in the near future to limit falsehoods and truths about mankind. Just as we limit what can be said about products and services. )

    End the lies.
