    (FB 1543759047 Timestamp) ART ISN”T THAT HARD TO PRICE – IT’S HARD TO LIQUIDATE QUICKLY —“…Value of art varies….”— Hmmmm…. One can objectively compare art, particularly by triangulation. One can, with some skill, estimate its current market value by RANGE – dealers are relatively good at it. But doing so requires a rather great deal of knowledge of the pieces in the inventory whether on market or not. When talking of rarities (culturally, technically, or aesthetically significant pieces, or pieces from an artist), one has to understand the liquidity of customers and their incentives. Houses are less ridiculous, and more likely to take a loss, but follow the same general rules. Fashion less ridiculous than houses, but following the same general rules. Ergo, “All Stereotypes Are True”, “Class Stereotypes Are True”, “Taste Stereotypes Are True”, and one need only understand the relationship between Stereotype, Available Inventory, and Current Economic Conditions within that Stereotype. As in all economic questions, the more predictable the price range the lower the value of the service, commodity, product, item. Signal Value is Costly Regardless of Class.

    (FB 1543761176 Timestamp) THERE ARE ONLY THREE MEANS OF COERCION All groups govern one another and compete with others, using a combination of those three means of coercion. And with those means of coercion they put them to good or ill use. For example, force can be used for predation or law, remuneration for bribery or trade, speech et all for moral or immoral purposes.

    (FB 1543869749 Timestamp) JUSTIFICATION FOR GROUPING —“The Abrahamic program’s second revision (Marx, Freud, Boaz, Cantor, Mises, Rothbard, Strauss) has been catastrophic. “—CD —“That’s a pretty unintuitive grouping, what’s the justification for it?”— Trent Fowler Method of argument. Just like we have math, logic, rationalism (formal, kantian), empirical, and scientific, we also have sophistry(pseudo-rationalism), pseudoscience, and mysticism. The abrahamic method turns out to be as perfect a method of lying as the scientific method is of telling the truth. So, the abrahamic method consists of (but is not limited to ) (a) false promise (b) baiting moral hazard (c) creating opportunity for parasitism or undermining, (d) using Pilpul (sophism, justificationism), Critique (straw manning criticism without supplying operationally possible alternatives,), Heaping undue praise, and reputation destruction, by means of loding, framing, suggestion, overloading, psychologizing, moralizing, half truths and outright deceits. Now, I’ve spent a lot of time on it, but you have to ask yourself, why, if mathematical, logical, empirical, operational, rational, reciprocal, arguments with tests of scope, completeness, and coherence exist, why it would be that you would argue by any other means. I suspect you’re referring to either mises or rothbard, and the work is here if you want to go through it (as well as hoppe). https://propertarianinstitute.com/2018/10/28/propertarianism-for-for-libertarians/

    (FB 1543794442 Timestamp) —“Political Violence Is a Game the Right Can’t Win”— followed by justifications… Theory is not empirical. study mao, isis, arab spring, ukraine, the rapid acquiescence once the civil rights movement went violent. note the acceleration of time frames. The usa is fragile. the left would use mass violence, the right mass attack on infrastructure.
