    HARD TO UNPACK BUT INSIGHTFUL

    —“They have the moral high ground… based around defending the subjective experience of all those lower in agency. Which should be the job of high agency males, but we’ve allowed the women to believe their subjective experience is the one we live and die by. In fact, most men believe this too… more afraid of dying alone than violently.”– Benny Burke

    PILPUL AND DERIVATIVES ARE FRAMED AS, BUT NOT CONTINGENT OR CAUSAL.

    —“A thought on grammars of ambiguation – pilpul and derivative ideologies base on primacy of linguistics would be grammars that are neither contingent nor causal, but are framed to be so?”—Bill Joslin

    Smart. Correct.

    — REGARDING —

    —“So it’s correct to call apriorism an ideal grammar, but not a formal grammar. Thankfully I finally know how to talk about the grammars of each incremental dimension… sigh. Mathematical grammars are not contingent because of constant relations. That’s their beauty. The problem is they’re non causal.Linguistic (Philosophical) grammars are contingent. That’s their weakness.Operational grammars are not contingent. And they’re causal. That’s their beauty.”—Curt Doolittle

    YARVIN VERSION TWO?

    —“Yarvin is intellectually above something so pedestrian as detailing an actionable solution. His IQ is too high for that. He knows that changing the way people think will change their actions more reliably than simply shouting “do this!” and being right. ….Yarvin herds his readers into intellectual movements. He created NRx out of whole cloth. Now he is going to embed NRx into the mainstream. His cultural associations foreshadow the success of his new project, and perhaps signify a specific anointment to the cause.

    Sure, this isn’t the revolution. This is just a learning opportunity.”— Zachary Miller

    I know you’re a fan. I have equally devoted fans. But because of my method I will always and everywhere have fewer fans, because the rigor is simply too difficult and costly an investment. Chris took a different approach – literary rather than scientific. It’s a tried and true method.

    He doesn’t have an IQ any higher than mine that’s for sure. One has to choose one’s rhetorical model, and he uses narrative engagement, historical analogy, empathy and suggestion, rather than declarative testable statements independent of empathy and sympathy.

    Let’s see what he does. I’m betting it’s the same message and technique recommending the same solution. If he sues for separation and competition I’ll be very pleasantly surprised.

    If he only succeeds in creating a frame for the three dimensions of the political triangle and popularizing it that will be enough.

  • “Any ‘new right’ must recognize ancient western liberal tradition of ‘noble indi

    —“Any ‘new right’ must recognize ancient western liberal tradition of ‘noble individualism’ & liberal education, etc. to avoid throwing it out with the bathwater of ‘egalitarian individualism’, which diverted the liberal idea to modern hedonic socialist ends.”— @demontage2000

    Yes but those are not terms that can be institutionally enforced. Use instead:

    1. Legal: Sovereignty and Reciprocity; Juridical Defense and Jury; Truth before face, Duty before self

    2. Political: Markets before authority.

    3. Aesthetic: Heroism, Excellence, Transcendence

    That the foundation. There is still more.

    The right loves the feeling of moral righteousness as much as the left loves outrage. But that is why conservative thinkers failed. We must like the founders, but better than they, create institutions and processes that provide shared incentives, not that require shared belief.

    The left invented desirable denial, sophism and pseudoscience. The postwar right doubled down on moralizing, b/c they were as afraid of admitting western civ is eugenic as the left was of eugenics. It invalidated democracy as national virtue narrative, in addition to the church.

    This inflection and the failure to continue eugenics will be seen in history like the failure of the greeks to bring about the industrial revolution. It is the basis for all problems of humanity in the post agrarian era. Vast numbers of people and cultures are detrimental to man.
