    FILLING MARKET DEMAND

    —“Curt: I think one reason you are refreshing is that you are an example of older WASP masculinity. We are taught from a young age that to be masculine “cool”, assertive, that we must adopt the identity or manner of Irish or Italians [bravado] to be masculine white men. And most who are not WASPs implicitly support this, as it lowers our SMV relative to theirs, to have a large segment of their competition deemed stiff, uncool and out of style.”— G.

    IT’S NOT DOG WHISTLING – IT’S DETERMINISM

    by Bill Joslin

    For those dubious of impending interviewer violence (4GW) consider the rise of nation states and Westphalia peace constrained violence to state actors lone i.e. elimination of private war and intra-border violence.

    The rise of globalism requires the erosion of national borders and with it the constraints on war to inter-border actors (nations) which reintroduces intra-border violence i.e. non-state actors engaging in war.

    Domestic violence (war with in borders) rises as Westphalia peace eroded. What we call terrorism today.

    Those that would call us warmongers or dog whistling are ignoring much more complex relations to sport out “m’uh provocateur! Rheeee!!”

    Choice is – acknowledge the full array of probabilities and prepare, or stay ignorant of probabilities and succumb.

    We are facing:

    1) low birth rates (urgent)

    2) demographic replacement (urgent)

    3) erosion of institutions which minimized intra-border violence (low trust commons)

    4) re-incentivizing non-state actors to engage in war either via proxies or directly.

    We must consider and calculate ALL of these issues, not just the ones we’re comfortable with.

    R.E. CHRISTIANITY SPECIFICALLY:

    by John Mark

    Christians need us. They cannot and will not save themselves. (In the sense of producing sufficient resistance to the Left.) And they know the Left seeks to destroy them.

    This gives us leverage and the ability to garner their support: “We are the only ones who can save you. You will not have a “Christian-run nation” until Jesus comes back. You don’t have the power to make it happen. BUT together we can ensure you and our shared (family/conservative) values survive. On the other hand, if we don’t work together (if you don’t support our rule-of-law that punishes evil as the Bible commands), then Christianity as you practice it will be outlawed & you will lose everything you value. Work with us (support our solution), you survive, and our shared family/conservative values survive. Refuse to support us, and you lose everything.”

    We say this knowing that after the shakeout their religion will continue to die and will be the “crazy uncle” of the Right in the meantime. And the negative effects of their universalism will be nipped in the bud by Propertarian law.

    We can communicate this in a palatable manner: “We have many shared values. You can’t win on your own. Too many people will rebel against a “Christian nation”. However, a sufficient number of people will accept a “Propertarian nation” with no consumer interest, no corrupt politicians, no special interests controlling politics, rule of law enforcing reciprocity, many social policies determined more locally, etc.

    Your support is valuable to us in making this a reality and doing Romans 8 “punishing evil” better.

    Let’s do this.

    https://arktos.com/…/an-autopsy-on-the-ron-paul-revolution/…

    A very insightful article.

    “Most of the groups that split from the Ron Paul movement are caught in a political twilight zone, forever pontificating about unattainable and ultimately illogical goals, unable or unwilling to ask the questions that finally, fully explain what makes society function.”

    “Yes, social systems and principles are important, but who builds social systems and outlines principles? People. Humans are not robots that can simply download new moral schemes or codes of conduct; we are animals, many of which cannot understand or be made to care about anything more complex than where the next emotional or sensory thrill will come from.”

    “In the end, libertarianism fails because it is trying to answer a question of who? with a description of what. The critical factor in society and politics is not systems and principles as such; it is if and how certain systems and principles can ever be adopted – which leads inevitably to the question of what human material provides fertile ground for what systems and principles.

    Libertarianism, it turns out, is simply an ‘autistic’ codifying of what most white males do, and value, without being told. Or, perhaps more accurately, libertarianism is a codifying of what most white males would do, in a world in which they were not browbeaten and fooled into endorsing Marxist egalitarianism.“

    “Alt-righters, broadly speaking, are just libertarians who realized that we – that is, white people – cannot save the world. We cannot rewire the brains of black or brown people, or even Northeast Asians, so that these groups will, as groups, enthusiastically embrace Lockean property rights. It will simply never happen. A multicultural utopia – of a libertarian or any other variety – is biologically impossible.”

    SPINELESS

    by Eli Harman

    Due to discounting, an eternal reward or punishment is not even infinitely good or bad. Thus, there should be finite bads you would be willing to give up an eternal reward to avoid or finite goods you would be willing to accept an eternal punishment to obtain.

    But Christians are too stupid to defy their god even when he’s just being a malicious, unreasonable, petty, vindictive, dzhou, which is all he ever is.

    Instead they’ll pilpul him into some infallible moral bellwether like spineless, pusillanimous, bootlicking, cowards and try to gaslight you into accepting the same degrading abuse they lap up appreciatively.



    (Curtd: No one does a poetic polemic like Harman. He’s a freaking Cicero of the right. Damn.)

    DOMESTICATION BY EXTERMINATION OF ALPHAS

    by Skye Stewart

    –“Curt are you in agreement with Wrangman’s general thesis as explored in this essay?”–

    —“A decades-long, painstaking experiment by two Russian geneticists working in Siberia showed that reduced brain size, thinner bones, and all of the other markers of domestication syndrome are merely incidental byproducts of a primary adaptation: reduced reactive aggression. In organisms selecting against such aggression, the migration of neural-crest cells—a special kind of cell that carries developmental instructions throughout the embryo and fetus—is delayed, resulting in smaller bodies, smaller brains, hormonal changes, and the rest.

    “Studies have been fairly clear on this. What has been unclear is why human communities selected against reactive aggression. For Wrangham, the answer is that group life requires a minimum of stability. No trait is more disruptive than reactive aggression, which fuels such behaviors as quests for dominance and demands for submission; arrogance, bullying, and random violence; and the monopolizing of food and females. That is a behavioral profile of the alpha male, the arch-reactive aggressor. Communities must either endure such pests or eliminate them. Once humans could communicate (the origin of language can’t be further narrowed down than three hundred thousand to five hundred thousand years ago, but empathy or “shared intentionality” appears to be independent of language and might be sufficient for communication), the die was cast. The origin of domestication, Wrangham proposes, was the group execution of alpha males. Civilization is founded on capital punishment—or, to give it its anthropological name, “coalitionary proactive aggression.””—

    —RESPONSE—

    Exactly. I quote this all the time, and it’s pretty well thought through in the literature. I mean, it’s the dominant theory. Which is why I use it.

    “Once we had spears, the alpha was doomed”

    The related argument FYI, is that language was invented to rally spear carriers against alpha males, and this is where female GSRRM comes from: undermining all power in order to preserve her freedom of choice in reproduction.

    Women don’t know they’re destructive. They do it out of instinct. So the problem is CONSTRAINING the destructive power of women thru undermining, JUST AS MUCH as constraining the coercive power of dominant males.

    (Note: someone else mentioned that this theory is from Christopher Boehm of Jane Goodall’s clan. I can’t remember off the top of my head, but that would make sense.)
