Our current parasite supporting system turns this agency sales funnel into a tractor pull. Every step of the way you have to carry more a burden. You have to recognize the costs being imposed upon you by the parasites are there because you are allowing them to be. Right now the funnel is not for weak engines not the faint of heart. “Fuck it, let’s just impose it” becomes a relief.
If we can get to where we can start to suppress the parasites, this funnel opens up to more and more people. We get to that wider audience.
https://www.amazon.com/Economic-Approach-Human-Behavior/dp/0226041123THE ECONOMIC APPROACH TO HUMAN BEHAVIOR
You know, it’s so much a part of my cognition that I forget to mention it. But this book framed my thinking about social science more so than any other. I think in the Becker model. Ostrom just helps with extending the Becker model into commons.
The “minds” that I imitate (make use of constantly) are Becker, Hayek, Hoppe, Popper, Turing-Chomsky, (the outlier is Hoppe (property) which is what the rest are missing), with Jeff Hawkins’s work on intelligence ( already having come true), and Baron Cohen’s so obvious, it’s coming true daily in the research. The Nietzsche I rely on is Birth of Tragedy. Someone will skewer me for this but his fundamental insight was produce there, and all else is application of it. Step back to the beginning again, and grasp that I studied history, art history, and military history first before any of this, and the sequence of aggregate behavior down to neurological processing is a completely coherent and consistent series of ideas.
The purest and most basal of all conflicts are those between different genetic clusters – it doesn’t get more fundamental than that. You’re not really disagreeing with Curt’s proposition that it’s a war of reproductive strategies, you’re just left hanging without a proper explanation.
It will be a race war, but there will also be race *traitors* as you may imagine; those who aid and abet outgroups through intimate relationships and deliberate actions that are deemed detrimental to our fitness. So a lot of in-group members will be butchered because of their crimes, and at the same time, there is evidence that suggests that their propensity to commit treason is genetic.
So saying that it’s going to be a race war is not enough; it’s also going to be an intra-racial conflict where those with weaker selection for ethnocentrism get weeded out, because they’re more likely to do something considered anti-white. We usually refer to these people as leftists. Since we and leftists pursue (on average) different evolutionary strategies, we can also state that there is going to be a conflict revolving around speciation.
Of course, speciation is unlikely to occur because it takes hundreds of thousands of years on average (and that’s for small, isolated groups prone to genetic drift). Likewise, I think people will find it more prudent to extirpate leftists altogether to prevent them from posing a threat ever again, so instead of a speciating divergence, only a single portion of the species will survive to evolve further.

Which do you think this hopper painting represents? For me, it’s not #3.Nov 14, 2018, 11:18 AMCurt DoolittleMatt Evans Well, hopper is … I mean, artists are artifacts of time and place and hopper is probably the best artifact of that time and place. The collector (collection owner) died last spring, and he was an entrepreneur that collected what he loved. there is a difference between what I would hang in my home and what I would state “yes, this is great art”. But that is the difference between taste and truth. Hopper is a great artist of his era, if not the greatest, one of them. He captured that moment in time for eternity.Nov 14, 2018, 11:21 AMMatt EvansCurt Doolittle But, for the sake of argument, let us say you provide me with a piece that is undeniably the greatest piece of modern day performance art. Or any modernist or post-modernist art, really.
Not only will I not place it in my home, but I will also tell you it is not truth, or, more generously, that the maximum amount of truth it has to say is that the “artist” is a sick creature that comes from a sick and dying society.
But there are many ways to say that, and reasonable people don’t think they are “art”.
being a product of a time and place does not absolve “artists” who create degenerate garbage; who demonstrate no particular talent at any particular craft
I don’t assert that Hopper is degenerate garbage, or is a talentless monster. I don’t even suggest it. The painting looks fine.
It doesn’t, however, strike me as the finest oil painting in American history. Or rather, if it truly is, that’s disappointing for America.Nov 14, 2018, 11:42 AMConnor WhittlawDo you come up with these ideas/metrics/etc by yourself or is there s lot of external collation going on?

The basic concept is if youre an alpha male and you only have a limited opportunity to do as much mating as possible during your tenure you want your offspring to have genes to encourage them to grow as fast as possible even at the expense of the mother’s future reproductive health. The mother on the other hand would prefer to retain her future reproductive health so females will develop genes that are only expressed when inherited by the mother to reduce fetal growth to compensate for the growth acceleration genes the males developed.

Are you talking about a typical or a stereotypical autist. There’s some difference.Nov 13, 2018, 11:10 PMJennifer DeanAutists are found all over the internet so it’s not like you have to chat them up in person. Autistic people who are on disability, working through vocational rehab or living in group homes are more likely to be leftist, because they fear losing care/benefits. Also autistic people, more than the average population, tend to be homosexual, bisexual, trans, etc.Nov 13, 2018, 11:20 PMDavid Parker…… those are not high functioning autists.
You found a bunch of severely mentally ill people who were “diagnosed” with autism for various reasons.Nov 13, 2018, 11:32 PMJennifer DeanBear in mind the only autists who can really “afford” to be right wing are those who are reasonably self-sufficient and/or married, or otherwise protected by strong family ties. Otherwise the left serves their interests much more so than the right. Considering r vs. k reproductive strategies, the majority of autists don’t fit into either category. Many are asexual. And it is easier for someone who is not socially well connected to hide anonymously in a herd, than to run with a pack.Nov 13, 2018, 11:37 PMJennifer Dean”High functioning” as a clinical term simply means IQ over 70.
