  • What Can the Average Person Grasp?

    Mar 20, 2020, 1:04 PM By John Mark

    —“So moral-reasoning in P is not hard. But what about the Grammars, Testimonial Truth, Operational Language, Strictly Constructed Laws, and the Abrahamic Method of Deceit?”– CD

    What can the avg person grasp, and/or what do we need to give them a glimpse of out of necessity? Strictly Constructed Laws – even if they don’t understand the details, this can be sold as solution to activist judges and undermining of the constitution. (You did a great job explaining it on most recent P-constitition video interview.) Abrahamic Method – the term itself triggers Christians, but the basic concept of “don’t say anything that excuses a violation of reciprocity” is understandable by the avg person. Testimonial Truth – details a bit much for avg person, but concept that there’s a checklist courts use to figure out whether a public figure is lying, I think is understandable, and may be necessary to “sell” free truthful speech vs free speech. And the avg person may be able to understand certain aspects of it, such as the concept of lying by omission or lying by mixing 2 concepts/definitions together.

  • Constitution as A Religious Quasi-Christian Document Delivered by Providence

    Mar 21, 2020, 5:01 PM

    —“Most American constitutionalists look at the US Constitution as a religious quasi-Christian document delivered by providence. If they could understand strict constitutional construction as the “holy” method of our people that would be a step in the right direction until they could grasp the science of it from a P-Law perspective.”–Heimdallr Aldafaðir

    OK. I CAN WORK WITH THAT

    —“Once I realized that military/defense is 1) a collective service and 2) provides value by seemingly preventing its own necessity, the libertarian bubble popped.”—Bobo Laremy

    CD: military services is also an unsubstitutable good, so no you can’t pay someone to do it for you.

  • Neural networks naturally organize according to energy costs

    Mar 23, 2020, 11:37 PM

    —” A recent theory, based on thermodynamics in physics, suggests that neural networks in a healthy brain naturally organize together according to energy costs into a sufficient number of connection “microstates” that lead to consciousness. Too many or too few microstates and the brain loses its adaptability, processing powers, and sometimes the ability to keep itself online.”—

  • It Can Be Done

    Mar 24, 2020, 3:59 PM by Luke Weinhagen I am not sure one cannot end the lies. The commons have become a threat through parasitism in neglect. Libertarianism is a passive defense response to the parasitism of the progressive left and the inefficacy of the negligent right (conservative is active, negligence is passive – I am taking the word back). That passivity lets everyone else frame the discourse (with lies) and leaves the libertarian in a position where all they can do is response in kind. Instead of being parasites, they are scavengers. All that exists for them to scavenge now is lies. Shift those we can out of passive into active. Shift them into ownership in property in all its forms. Transform the commons from threat they don’t know how to defend themselves against to asset they benefit from ownership in and frame for libertarian lies disappears.
