    THE PROPERTARIAN ‘BRAND’

    a) people try to use ‘propertarian’ to add ‘cache’ to the fact that they’re just rothbardian libertarians, and we’ve pretty much ended rothbardian libertarianism as a viable strategy.

    (b) Propertarianism provides a complete philosophical system and a formal logic. I chose ‘propertarian’ because there were very, very, few extant uses of the term, and because I wanted to capture the evolution from Locke->Rothbard->Hoppe to my self. So technically speaking if you reduce all social science to statements of property then categorically you could say your a follower of the propertarian. That said, there is a very great difference between locke, rothbard, hoppe, and myself (property in toto) and the claims we make.

    So Unless a person can articulate which of those scopes of property he is referring to and why I would tend to describe him as saying the equivalent of ‘libertarian or anarcho capitalist’ or ‘undecided libertarian’.

    We tend to use the terms ‘Aristocratic Egalitarian’, Propertarian, or Natural law. And we certainly expect people to try to usurp the term just as liberals stole liberal, and rothbard stole libertarian we expect people to try to steal propertarian. Its ok. it is what it is.

    I suppose the fact that I own most of the permutations of the domains propertarian*.* is enough of a testimony. But it’s not like I care. all advertising is good advertising.

    -Cheers

    OMFG. Is there anyone who gives a sh-t what porn you watch? All exposure of accounts will do is make it socially acceptable to talk about your taste in porn, and for the alt right to pepper ‘cucks’ and ‘sjws’ who complain with green frogs.

    THE WESTERN WAY OF WAR – AND WHY IT WORKS.

    Just read WILLIAM S LIND, VICTOR DAVID HANSON, MARTIN VAN CREVELD, JOHN KEEGAN and NIAL FERGUSON

    Each explains why the western way of war HAS BEEN superior (until now).

    For ‘bathroom reading’ I recommend Sun Tzu, and Liddel-Hart. that’s the corpus. that’s all there is to read.

    The rest is just playing war games so that you understand

    Concentration of forces, maneuver, and supply lines with the available technology.

    The conduct of patrol and raids for small groups. And the basics: firing/fire teams/ambush/fields of fire; fitness/liquid, air, temperature body-management; concealment/cover/movement and signals; and emergency medical.

    As far as I can tell, playing paintball a lot will get you there if its on a large enough territory. (paintball is a 300’/sec game, instead of a 1000’/sec+ game, and a 350′ game instead a 300 yard game, and paintballs can’t penetrate walls, while you pretty much can’t stop 223 or 762 from penetrating walls.) But since most fighting appears to be urban now, paintball equipment is an excellent and safe training method.

    If I had my way, it’d be the primary sport in school, not football. Not the least of which because of injuries, but we don’t fight in legions any longer by pushing and shoving, and with weapons, silence, fitness and endurance are more important than strength. Strength just increases calorie, water, and oxygen consumption. The question is, how long can you fight with a rifle with five other guys, when you’re hungry, thirsty, physically spent, sleepy, and cold?

    I live my life by what is in front of me. I argue politics by the data since it CAN’T be in front of me. To do otherwise would be to apply specific cases to general rules, or general rules to specific cases, and both of those are illogical.
