    —“Any pretense of humanity having diverged from its most reliable and durable political system (monarchy) is just another load of bullshit virtue signaling. Our kings elect our presidents. We’re just the upscale peasants that think we had a say in the matter.”— Emil Prelic

    THE POOR WANT TO SURVIVE. THE PRIVILEGE TALK POLITICS.

    –“Are the People of the Donbas Communist Sympathisers?”—

    Again, a privileged bit of silliness.

    The people in the donbas are fucking dirt poor and it sucks like hell, and the technological revolution that is floating ukraine in the other cities is not there. Right now it is a depopulated wasteland. Think detroit after a civil war.

    Think of the donbas as say, coal mining regions of wales, or the hills of kentucky, or any of the cities in america that live off state financed military (naval) production, all rolled into one. in 1992 their freaking world fell apart and without the organized redistribution of commerical activity to their region by state military investment, they have NO HOPE.

    They want pensions, redistribution, and they remember the REAL GOOD that was done for them by the soviet union. THe soviets were TERRIBLE for eastern europe but they were not terrible for many rural russian peasants.

    PEOPLE REACH FOR WHAT THEY UNDERSTAND.

    what they just want is food, clothing, shelter, security, family and to have a few hopes that are within reach of achievement.

    A middle or working class privileged person is a communist sympathizer. He has a luxury. A poor person is just DESPERATE.

    MEANS, ENDS ARE YOUR CHOICE

    —“As I understand it Curt focuses on building a grammar from the ground up, as it were. Operational grammar staves off assumptions about the ends and emphasises inquiry into the means.”— Nicholas Arthur Catton

    THE ANGLO SELF ANALYSIS – THE RIDDLE OF TRUTH.

    —“I’m torn between thinking its a shame that we’re so stubborn that we require a way to prove we were right all along rather than just accepting it based on favorability of outcomes, and thinking it’s awe-inspiring that we are so dedicated to truth that we would likely change what we’ve assumed was correct if we were able to develop a reliable prediction model that shows us to be in error.”—@John Derbyshire

  • UKRAINIAN NAZIS? OMFG. ACTUALLY COMPARE THE BRITS TO THE NAZIS AND WHO WAS WORSE

    UKRAINIAN NAZIS? OMFG. ACTUALLY COMPARE THE BRITS TO THE NAZIS AND WHO WAS WORSE FOR OUR CIVILIZATION?

    —“I heard there were Nazi Sympathizers in the Ukrainian military. Is that true?”—

    omg. Listen. what kind of privilege do you have to live under to virtue signal on that scale? You’d have to be be entirely incognizant of the desperation of a people who live under pervasive corruption, russian paid-for corruption, an oligarchy (libertarians desire a return to) that is basically nothing more than organized crime syndicate, that pays for the government to keep the people in poverty.

    So here is how I (and others in ukraine) would translate your question: “What kind of ignorant, privileged, overweight, unfit, tv-watching, spoiled, effeminate idiot cares about the symbolism young men adopt in order to give themselves courage when fighting vast pervasive corruption foreign, domestic, public, and private in order to save their families and friends from

    Next time you hear that from someone punch him, or slap her, in the face, and tell them to visit a ukrainian village or apartment block where fellow white people who are devoutly christian and far more moral than any brit has the pretense to be, live on $80 a month, because russians want to expand eastward toward europe again, and the people who were entrenched by the russians in the political system, and then entrenched further by the oligarchs (gangsters) want to protect their profits.

    You tell me who is the more moral man? The one who seeks out costumes of fear and power over vastly superior numbers in order to gain courage so that he can take his ife into his own hands on behalf of his people, or the pathetic virtue signal spiral of western privileged do-nothings who destroy their civilization through such posturing?

    Who do you lionize? What political power does it seek? What self confidence does it give you? Howe do you lie to yourself that your life has meaning other than conspicuous consumption? ANd worse, conspicuous consumption of virtue signals – little lies we tell ourselves to say we are anything other than excess burden on the carrying capacity of the planet.

    These people are fighting for their families, friends, future, and nascent nation.

    I’ll tell you who. It’s obvious. And that’s the end of the story.

    Virtue signaling makes me sick. And angry.

    And for that matter, what the hell is wrong with Nazi anything any more, what century are you (they) living in? They dress nice. They cared for their people. And they were loved by their citizenry. And if it weren’t for the brits and Americans we would never have had the first world war, the nazis or the cold war, or the iron curtain, or the rise of islam.

    So if you wanna know who the shitty tyrants in this world are it wasn’t the nazies trying to save their people, it was the brits and americans who destroyed european civilization out of imperial greed.

    Q&A: “CURT, WHY DONT YOU USE THE TERM REDUCTION?”

    —“I am surprised I haven’t heard you mention or talk about reduction in any of your work. Because when I think of Propertarianism ( and I use this to refer to all of your work) I see how you have reduced complex ideas into smaller statements and/or terms(definitions). So I suppose what I think I’m asking is, has reduction played a specific part in your work and if so would it be beneficial for others to understand the process of complexity and reduction?Thanks,”— A Friend

    Um. I use the terms “Deconflation, Deflationary, Deflate, Parsimony, Parsimonious, and Analytic, and Operational” and I should but don’t use Reduction or Reductonism primarily because (a) I’m not sure what people hear, and (b) i like to emphasize the problem of deconflation rather than simplifications.

    In other words, it is one thing to reduce things and another to describe how one reduces things. I reduce things largely by a process of deconflation. I achieve that deconflation through the use of a series of techniques:

    (a) Operational grammar thereby deflating POV.

    (b) Operational descriptions thereby deflating loading framing, etc

    (c) Descriptions in Series,(Spectrums, lists, grids, truth tables) thereby deflating the use of terms to describe multiple states.

    (d) Equilibrial forces between series.

    (e) The evolutionary result of competition between sets of equilibrial forces.

    Deconflation and Deflation are in fact, methods of Reductionism. And Reductionism, now that you made me think of it, at least ‘sounds like’ a good term of common understanding for marketing the value of Propertarianism. And I will test it a bit and see if I can make that point now and then. So thank you for the suggestion.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkHooEp3vRETHE BBC IS AT IT AGAIN. (Sigh)

    This series is one of the most insidious pieces of utopian and universalist(Imperialist) propaganda of the past decade. (a particularly British cultural tendency)

    The correct answer is that all the economists other than menger failed: Marx, Keynes, Hayek, Samuelson, and so have all four major schools, to solve the problem of informational asymmetry, while preserving incentives, by not measuring total changes to all forms of capital used by man. They also were enamored of fiat money without seemingly grasping that it constituted shares in the corporate state and therefore the citizenry; or grasping that that we no longer require the financial distribution system once we possess fiat, credit, and now electronic money.

    And it is not true that we dont understand the post-capitalism model of the economy. We have for many decades. It is post capitalist(financial sector) not post capitalism (the voluntary organization of production using property, money, prices, credit and interest). It is profoundly beneficial for the population, but disempowering of the state and will all but eradicate the financial sector.
