If our ancestors didn’t have capital punishment for other than cowardice in battle and adultery, how did they get rid of malcontents?
Sacrifice. See. Then it was for the gods. No one was responsible.
I like that method.

QUESTION?
—“Will people rise up before it’s too late?”—
If you got a call today from me or someone like me, to show up in a certain town at a certain date would you go? Would you have gone five years ago? Would you go today? Will you go in 90 days?
If the answer to that question is anything other than “I’ll show up” then you’re the f–king problem, so shut the f—k up.
If the answer is “I’ll show up”, then we win.
There is nothing in the world that can stop 100k.
We are the largest army in the world.
But only if hand-wringers show up.
If you won’t show up then shut up.

LIFE AFTER DEATH
(hard questions) (life after death)
—“Is there life after death? Watching my father die recently has made me question my faith and the meaning of existence.”—James Louis LaSalle
Do socrates, Alexander, and Jefferson still live? Do your ancestors still live? Our current understanding of the universe is that it is constructed of information (differences in state). We certainly live on as information. We certainly live on as information in both genes, words, deeds, and the debt we pass on to our ancestors.
But does that information in any way exist such that our memories can be accessed, our experiences revisited, new experiences felt, or new memories formed? No.
Of this we are scientifically certain I’m afraid – although I won’t go into the completeness we see today. There is no room in the universe for information that can interact with any information we are capable of sensing.
Conversely can the fragments of our genes, words, deeds, be assembled in ‘gists’ in the minds of those that follow us? Of course. How many of us have been in an ancient place and felt the generations, centuries, millennia, aeons pass? How many of us can ‘feel’ the lives of the generations that have lived in a medieval house? A gothic church? A roman ruin? An oak grove.
We make marks upon genetic, physical, and informational existence. And as such we make marks on our perception of eternity, just as surely as a craftsman leaves a mark on stone, an author ink on parchment, a philosopher or scientist on man, a mother and father on the generations to follow.
The greatest mark we can make is a war of liberty, conquest, or genocide. It’s these marks we make as a people. But it is those marks we leave in genetics, in our arts and letters, and in knowledge, that live forever.
So is there a life after death? Of course not. It was a lie told to those in exchange for obedience – a novel form of cheap slavery. An addictive drug for the weak and ignorant. One of the great lies of history – a lie that violates reciprocity because it cannot be warrantied.
But do we persist after death?
Only in the capital we create that persists after us.
Bear young. Live well. Speak the truth. And exit this life having made works that leave the world better for your having lived in it.
This is the promise of our people.

INTERSEX “DISCIPLINE”
(hard questions) (judgemet of the natural law)
—“Serious question, is it ever justifiable to hit a woman if she grsm’s you too much? What is the recommended amount of force under P?”—Jack Hwite
This is a great example of how sovereignty has been used throughout our history. And why this question has such a long history in our law: because it’s a common problem.
Justifiable isn’t a meaningful term. Instead, under natural law, and under traditional european law, you can challenge anyone male of female to a duel, demand apology, demand satisfaction, and if refused exercise sovereignty in self defense.
Or put differently, in natural law, each of us is sovereign, whether male or female. But the sexes differ in our exercise of force.
“A male physical super-predator exchanges the forgoing of his violence with women so long as women social super-predators exchange forgoing their their undermining (GSRRM) in return. If this contract is broken then physical violence and undermining are both licensed.
Or the individuals may choose to forgo the duel and simply have at each other in words and hands.
A judicially sanctioned duel before peers is preferred, since differences in ability can be minimized by traditional pit and bag or other means.
A conflict can be brought before the court instead and settled there. Because “Scolding” is just as much a violation of sovereignty and the peach as is physical violence.
However, this is limited to discipline for insult, and when the other party lies down and submits the conflict must stop – otherwise the parties extend beyond the judicial duel into attempted murder.
This competition is the only way to prevent male and female warfare by their individual means.
We have constrained men’s violence but let loose women’s violence – and we are paying the price of undermining our civilization as a consequence.

There are values to be learned from both Achilles(a King who is not yet noble) and Hector (a warrior who is noble). However, what does it say about rage, power, and forgiveness to men who would be kings?
Iliad and Odyssey are two books in what is called the Epic Cycle. The “Bible” of the ancient world. There were six others that told the other parts. The other books were much shorter And one amendment to them: the Aeneid.
THE EPIC CYCLE:
ACT I
1. Cypria – preamble and first nine years of the war.
2. Illiad – The rage of achilles
—
ACT II
3. Aetheiopis – death of achilles
4. Little Illiad – building the trojan horse
5. Iliou Persis – sack of troy
—
ACT III
6. Nostoi – Everyone but odysseus returns home
7. Odyssey – Odysseus’ journey home
8. Telogony – Odysseus gets killed
—
POSTSCRIPT
9. Aneid – The last trojan goes west. (added later).
The others are largely lost. But most of the dramas (plays) take place during these stories. And there is a lot of written commentary. So we can reconstruct them.
The Iliad is “A Story of Achilles Rage” or “The Rage of Achilles”. But Priam comes to Achilles and they settle the rage. He learns to forgive his enemies and abandon his rage.
It is a story of aristocracy becoming through respect and forgiveness. It is a lesson of how a warrior is to to become a king: Through Nobility.

HOW USEFUL IS ETHNOCENTRISM AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
—“Dear Curt, You write pretty regularly about Anglo, French, German, Russian, Spanish etc ethnic characteristics. In the United States, how useful is this kind of ethnocentrism? Is it relevant that Caesar revered the Macedonian Alexander, and that Alexander revered Greeks like Achilles, and Diogenes? I also remember Caesar passed through a tiny, poverty stricken Gallic village and said, “I’d rather be first in this village than second in Rome.” Is this “ethnocentrism”?”—
