  • Once you understand (((they))) are all cognitively female, everything else they

    Once you understand (((they))) are all cognitively female, everything else they do makes perfect sense. Really. Like I said, the competitive differences between human groups are reducible to a very small number of traits that express gender differences during development. Our free will is limited by these differences. We know not what we do. We just do.

  • The American electoral system makes us vote given our responsibility for the com

    The American electoral system makes us vote given our responsibility for the commons. If we restored property it would fix most. if we restored male head of household it would restore all.

    once you start thinking the equilibrium between density and the discount on opportunity, versus sparsity, and the premium on the commons, you understand that value judgements of the urban vs suburban, vs rural people.

    The lower density the more responsibility for commons and the more costly are oppportunities. Whereas the higher density the lower responsbility for commons and the lower cost of opportunities.

    Hence why density determines value judgements regarding the private and common.

  • “Curt, Is Peterson still….”— In the choice of grammars between: Aristotelian

    —“Curt, Is Peterson still….”—

    In the choice of grammars between: Aristotelian Scientist (description), Stoic Self Authoring (education and training), Platonist Philosopher (literature), and Abrahamic Theologian (Religion), Peterson cherry picks from each for support, but is narrative (what he argues with) is pure platonism (literature).

    My hope was that he would favor the scientific and stoic, but he pulls from each discipline as needed.

    My understanding of him (as well as most others) is that they lack the method of description obtained from (micro) economics (incentives).

    So they do their best.

    We should not expect perfection of an individual, but that he advances the cause. And instead we should expect that a field of individuals supply a range of arguments.

    —“Curt, Do you advocate XYZ?”—

    I provide a RANGE of solutions for different people (which is my job) and an OPTIMUM solution for OUR people. So it is sometimes confusing to readers which I’m talking about.

    In other words while there is a perfect government, under normal conditions we must provide sufficient flexibility so that we can celebrate windfalls and suffer wars.

    Utopia is for children who wish to avoid the burden of calculation (reasoning as an adatpation to change). To some degree a perfect government provides predictability and adaptability as do markets when subject to pressures of plenty or scarcity. And thereby reduces the burden of calculation of adaptation. And even better, insurance such that it can, by prohibition on rents, and debts (which can be a form of rent), afford to adapt.

    THE IMPORTANCE OF THE GRAMMARS

    I’ve been fussing over the grammars for a few weeks, and it’s occurred to me that this idea is as important as testimonialism, because it provides a means of comprehending the very great difference between reasoning and calculating.

    So, while I sort of treated it as ‘groundwork’ for testimonialism, I think I’m going to lift it up to it’s own subject under or epistemology.

    My intuition was to move it under Vitruvianism in metaphysics because it’s a system of measurement of sorts and the discussion naturally flows from one idea to the next.

    We’ll see.

  • The Only Time To Use A God Via Positiva

    In any dispute between two testimonies regarding the same phenomenon, we have two tests of decidability: 1- Rationality (incentives) 2 – Parsimony (occam’s razor) If the incentive exist to fictionalize, and if fictionalism is defeated by parsimony, then the person is in fact lying. The only time to use a god is via positiva (poetic meaning and communication) but it cannot be used via negativa (truth or argument). The reason gods were necessary is intergenerational transfer. if gods were mortal they could not explain the long standing. A god is just a unit of measure of the intertemporal.
