  • China Has Succeeded with National Socialism

    October 19th, 2018 10:11 AM CHINA HAS SUCCEEDED WITH NATIONAL SOCIALISM(I’m gonna ride this wave for a bit) [S]tate Capitalism with zero tolerance for opposition is simply National Socialism – something that the intelligentsia (“The Commentariat of the Proletariat”) will have a hard time swallowing. It’s as important as the NPC meme. All states are turning to fascism (intolerant nationalism), and mixed economies, with the state investing in core industries, using fiat money (shares in the economy) as a money substitute, and therefore a means of providing incentive (pull) rather than direction (push). THE NAZIS WON – No one is yet willing to admit it.

  • Living in a scientific culture

    October 18th, 2018 7:52 PM

    “Adults living in a scientific culture are more rational (and intelligent) than adults living in pre-modern cultures. For example, according to studies conducted in the 1960s and 1970s, even educated adults living in Papua New Guinea did not reach the formal stage. Australian Aborigines who were still living a traditional lifestyle barely developed beyond a preoperational stage in their adult years. Without a population that has mentally developed to the level of formal operations, which entails a capacity to think about abstract relationships and symbols without concrete forms, a capacity to grasp syllogistic reasoning, comprehend algebra, formulate hypotheses, there can be no modernization”

    Or a concept of reciprocal, negotiated sovereignty! Conceptualising and operating in such a paradigm is as foreign as colonising mars! h/tip Curt Doolittle (No idea who posted this)

  • War Over Scripts

    October 18th, 2018 5:30 PM WAR OVER SCRIPTS by John Mark [T]he culture war is the battle over whose scripts control the most NPCs. NPCs lean mostly left because the lies feel better. The Right has a built-in disadvantage in the culture war. On top of that, the Right-wing NPCs (“No more illegals but yay legal nonwhite immigrants bcuz I don’t want to be wacist!”) actively support invasion of millions of enemy NPCs every year. Thus we cannot win back America by winning the culture war. Give us 20 years with no immigration, maybe. But because of immigration we don’t have the time. So we separate.

  • Simple But Deep: China

    October 19th, 2018 10:34 AM SIMPLE BUT DEEP [C]hina is using Singapore as a micro model, and Singapore is the biggest advocate of state capitalism. Lee Kwan Yu once said there are two reasons for Asia’s economic success: state capitalism and the US Navy. Asia can’t go to war as long as the US Navy patrols the Pacific and South China Sea. And, of course, the trade routes are open. –by Sean Ring

  • Yes, You Can Go Full Fash …

    October 19th, 2018 7:04 PM YES, YOU CAN GO FULL FASH … [Y]ou can go from classical liberal to libertarian to reactionary to full FASH. You can. I know. I did.…. And not cause of some silly boyhood attraction to symbolism, or want of power. But because it’s the logical conclusion of the study of political economy: Nationalist, Mixed Economy, Zero Tolerance, Rule of Law. It’s the optimum group strategy, polity, economy, and system of decidability. The zero tolerance thing is easy once you have rule of law of reciprocity. There isn’t any argument possible against it other than right to defecate in the community gene pool. and you know, sorry. No. You don’t get to soil the gene pool.

  • Hmm… A relationship column I can do.

    October 19th, 2018 5:28 PM

    —“I’d pay good money to read your sex column.”— Kevin Wu

    [I] don’t think so. A relationship column I can do. Sex I don’t think I’m anything special at all, or any one to listen to, other than I know how to talk about it, and I’ve had a bunch of relationships. I have friends who go through model-quality-women like snowplows on the highway in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. That’s not me. I like fit nerdy girls and I’m monogamous by nature and preference. 😉 I was raised in the “joy of sex” generation of get high and relax through it all – which like everything else in the sixties and seventies was nonsense. Had to learn the hard way. Everything you need to understand about sex can be encapsulated in one quote from one woman of outsized experience: “The dumb, young, athletic ones are better because they think less, follow instinct more and are closer to gorillas – they get the job done. Everything else is romance, and build up.” Feel your way thru sex using your entire sensory system and hers – don’t think it. That’s what they do. Women are not projects, objects, or prey. They are partners in family, and friends with benefits. You win them indirectly by being valuable and interesting, and making them feel safe to ‘feel’. Play a sport no matter how stupid to keep fit, keep some man friends either recreational or business, and make sure her friends are jealous of how you take care of her. Be a Prince to her friends, a gentleman with her, and a gorilla in the bedroom, and finish her first. The first time you score, exhaust her completely. That’s it. The rest is being friends. Don’t try to understand women. They aren’t men. Just love them. Say no to what you need to. Don’t disagree on preference or good, just can or cannot, will and will not. And when they treat you like a girlfriend rather than a man then come down hard on that limit. Listen and say you understand. Learn to half-listen. Dont judge. Ask a few questions when you don’t undrestand. Support her ambitions. Respect her within the limits you set. Do stuff together. Friendships are built and maintained through shared experiences. Do things with other couples to keep from making it tedious. Do stuff apart from each other so you have things to talk about. Do not get into debt or too many hours of work, or too much stress that you can’t do all of the above comfortably. Don’t get too much house or more kids than the two of you can manage. Live and work near family so that grandparents share in the kids. I could afford a 40K year child/nanny expense. Most people can’t. Grandparents are worth about that much income. My ‘thing’ is to learn what makes them look good and buy clothes for them. Other guys its doing stuff for them. This tells them constantly that she is on your mind. My wife and I talked at least once a day from the office if not more. It’s not complicated. That said, I still failed. I would have been fine and still married to that amazing woman, but two bouts of cancer and the illness between them and the contraction of the market while having a child I wasn’t ready for, just were too much for me. I’m only freaking human. We live and learn.

  • Testimonialism Is the Core Insight of Propertarianism

    October 19th, 2018 3:29 PM TESTIMONIALISM IS THE CORE INSIGHT OF PROPERTARIANISM [M]ost of the work is dependent upon the completion of the scientific method, and its restatement as due diligence in the production of testimony such that one can (and by law) must, provide a warrant of due diligence for one’s speech. This allows us to extend the demand for involuntary warranty of due diligence from goods and services to information (speech) ending the industrialization of lying that we know as marxism-feminism-postmodernism of the academy-state-media complex. The this ‘checklist’ and the ‘grammars’ are a substantial innovation, and they are unfortunately a bit harder to grasp and internalize than acquisitionism (psychology restated as desire to acquire property in toto), and propertarianism (ethics restated as voluntary transfer of property). The rest, (operational law, rule of law, and perfect government) are not that complicated.
