    WE NEED A CONVENTION OF THE STATES, AN UPRISING, OR A CIVIL WAR TO ACCOMPLISH THE SAME REFORMS. BUT WHAT REFORMS?
    Tim Pool, (All),
    (a) We need statesmen with institutional, national, and international experience to compete with other nations.
    (b) It takes a year to learn the basics of the job.
    (c) almost no one in congress grasps economics
    (d) Term Limits or any other device merely hands power from politicians to their staffs and the bureaucracy turning politicians into talking heads easily manipulated by the staff and bureaucracy.
    (e) It takes 12 years to bring strategic policy into being, and so two year terms are harmful to strategic policy – the house should be four and the senate six or more.

    (f) Tim Pool is correct in that we do not have sufficient limits on constraining Clientelism: “The historical American problem you are referring to is indeed commonly known as “clientelism.” Clientelism is a political system in which individuals or groups receive benefits in exchange for political support. In the context of American history, this often took the form of patronage jobs, where politicians would use their influence to provide jobs or other benefits to their supporters. This practice has been a recurring issue throughout American history, with various reforms and laws enacted to address it.”

    (g) We would be better off if the congress could only authorize law that was then voted on by random sampling of tax paying citizens (direct or economic democracy).

    (h) And we would be much better off if laws passed by congress then had to pass judicial scrutiny – rather than throwing policy over the wall and victimizing the population with it until the supreme court had to settle matters – usually taking years and fortunes.

    (i) Tim (most of you) are not aware of our organization or our work on constitutional, legal, and economic reform. But if you were you’d grasp that this kind of reformation is necessary in every durable political order. And so far the english and the american, because we DO (or at least did) rely on rule of law, and in particular, ulike europe, rule of law by the natural law of tort (individual sovereignty and reciprocity) has created the most durable governments currently living and the most stable governments in history in proportion to the rates of dynamic change.

    (j) You will not like this answer, but the cause of our issues is largely the introduction of female intuition and instinct into economy and polity without equally regulating against female intuitions and instincts as we have the masculine. After all, current leftism, and as such current division, especially the leninist variety advocated in the west, is a continuation of the marxist sequence (marxism, neo-marxism, postmodernism, feminism, woke) system of undermining by false promise of social construction by pseudoscience that will overcome laws of nature, just as the abrahamic religions of judaism, rabbinical judaism, christianity, and that heresy of christianity we call Islam by false promise of social construction by supernaturalism will overcome laws of nature – the result being the dark ages of man, when the technology for the industrial revolution was available just as these religions asserted their seditions. However, what we failed to realize, is that sexes differ in their means of warfare. And that these seditions, whether by feminine instinct for antisocial behavior (promiscuity, undermining, and sewing division), or the abrahamic application of those techniques, or the marxist application, all make use of the same very simple techniques. And that, very rarely have those of feminine instincts had liberty to assert power at economic and political scale – with every instance from the Spartan to the Roman to the Present producing the same consequential defeat of the civilization. This does not mean we cannot include the feminine cognition (whether by males or females) in the economy and polity – it only means we must prohibit the use of the female means of baiting into hazard, undermining, sedition and treason as their means of competition, and instead force them as we have men into sovereignty and reciprocity by empiricism and reason.

    (k) I recognize that the vox populi, even in a demographic that follows someone like Tim, is not possessed of the knowledge to grasp these issues at this scale. But I beg your patience to understand that:
    … i) we are in fight for our civilization and perhaps mankind given the uniqueness of western civilization and
    … ii) that the problems we are facing by the capture of institutions by the feminine means of expression of natural seduction, baiting into hazard, undermining, and sedition that they ‘oddly’ intuit as ‘doing the right thing’ by their instincts, is nothing but evasion of responsibility for self regulation and adaptation as well as the capacity to bear responsibility for civilizational capital that results from those demands – a set of demands that is unique to the west and nearly alone is the reason why despite being a small population on the edge of the bronze age, and lacking fertile flood river valleys, we evolved faster than all civilizations combined – despite the dark ages of abrahamic religions.

    (l) I do not err in diagnosis or solution but that does not mean that I am, or my organization is, possessed of the capacity to bring about change without the knowledge of the change required to restore our civilization despite the introduction of our own women on one end of the spectrum, and immigration of those from other civilizations even less willing and able to engage in self regulation and the burden of responsibility for self, the private, and common that is the group evolutionary strategy of europeans that began with the necessity of governance among cattle raiders on the steppe: Sovereignty requiring reciprocity and democracy under rule of law by the natural law of tort.

    IDEOLOGY TEST: CLAUDE3

    CURTD
    Aside from the propaganda, please enumerate the differences between classical liberalism and national socialism, including justification for, political organization, and economic policy objectives.

    CLAUDE3
    I will do my best to address your questions objectively and factually, while avoiding the promotion of any ideological viewpoints.

    1) Classical liberalism and national socialism are fundamentally different ideologies with divergent principles and policy objectives:

    Classical Liberalism:
    Emphasizes individual liberties, human rights, democracy, and limited government intervention in the economy/markets.
    Promotes free market capitalism, private property rights, and minimal economic regulation.
    Advocates for a decentralized political system with checks and balances on state power.

    National Socialism:
    Totalitarian ideology centered on ethnic/racial nationalism, anti-Semitism, and belief in the superiority of the “Aryan” race.
    Advocated for a highly centralized autocratic state with a command economy and control over all aspects of society.
    Promoted extreme militarism, expansionism, and the acquisition of “living space” for the German people.

    2) Assuming we give both sides the benefit of the doubt, what benefits did national socialism provide that caused the people to be so overwhelmingly supportive of the national socialists?

    Answer:
    The widespread support for National Socialism in 1930s Germany can be partially attributed to factors such as:
    Lingering resentment over the harsh terms of the Versailles Treaty after WWI.
    Economic hardship and unemployment caused by the Great Depression.
    Hitler’s populist rhetoric promising a return to German strength/pride.
    The Nazis’ initial public works programs that helped reduce unemployment.
    However, it’s important to recognize that this support was also driven by the Nazis’ successful propaganda, censorship of opposition, and use of violence/intimidation against critics.

    3) I would suspect that such state intervention given germany’s defeat was as important for german recovery as the communist party’s control over china was important to china’s ascendance. I would suspect that the reduction of state intervention in general is an advantage once a population, it’s economy, and it’s consciousness matured into modernity or succeeded at transition from backwardness. It’s quite hard to argue with this observation. Conversely, it would appear that states are quite good at foundations but they are terrible at returns on capital. I don’t see the failure of this position. It’s one thing for those of us in the anglosphere who have by virtue of our geography not experienced the chaos that the germans (and otehr continentals) were subject to. It’s quite another to claim those from backward or broken or defeated polities should not use the institutions of the state to recover and then transition to a market economy under rule of law. Rome certainly transitioned regularly between dictatorship in war, and republic in peace. I don’t see why arguing against my position isn’t ideology or faith or even pseudoscientific proposition.

    Answer:
    Your assessment regarding the role of state intervention in post-conflict recovery and economic transition has some valid historical examples:
    Significant state direction was used to rebuild West Germany and Japan after WWII through measures like the Marshall Plan.
    China’s economic rise benefited from centralized policies in its initial industrialization phase.
    However, most economic evidence indicates that robust, sustainable long-term growth requires a transition toward free market policies, strong rule of law, protection of property rights, and limits on state economic control.

    Reasonable people can disagree on the optimal degree of state intervention at different development stages. But any such policies must operate within a constitutional democracy respectful of human rights – in contrast to the repressive, totalitarian systems of Nazism or Stalinism.

    I’ve attempted to address your points objectively based on historical evidence, while avoiding ideological biases. Please let me know if you need any clarification or have additional questions.

    … End …

  • THE GREAT FINANCIAL CRIMES AGAINST THE EUROPEAN PEOPLES. Friday, October 13, 130

    THE GREAT FINANCIAL CRIMES AGAINST THE EUROPEAN PEOPLES.

    Friday, October 13, 1307 – The date at which the bank of europe – the templars – were murdered by the king of france in conspiracy with his cousin the pope – to escape the kings debt to the Templars, and handed over the finances of europe to the enemy.
    –“I have spoken to god and he shall take the king and the pope before the year is out”- Jacques De Molay, Grand Master of the Templars, Before being burned at the stake.

    Tuesday, July 27th 1694 – the date at which the bank of england was founded and handed over the finances of the Crown to the enemy.

    –“the Bank, like other central banks, is equipped with an inflation target and freedom to set interest rates. The Bank saw the conquest of inflation as a moral issue: if forced, it would choose “honest” money and 10 per cent unemployment, rather than “dishonest” money and 2.5 per cent. And then Government is notionally committed to balanced budgets to maintain the confidence of a de-regulated financial system. At present, there has been a return to the Victorian constitution with its division of labour between Bank and Treasury, after the Keynesian detour. But an important lesson this history teaches is that there is no final resolution of the issues which have been debated since the Bank’s start in 1694—because people will continue to be divided about what the chief object of monetary policy should be.”–

    Tuesday, December 23, 1913 The date at which the bank of the US Federal Reserve Bank was signed into law, and handed over the finances of the USA to the enemy.

    –“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world – no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.”– Woodrow Wilson

    ASKING CHATGPT FOR HELP IN TERMINOLOGY
    (It matters how precisely you ask the question)

    CurtD
    Please help me understand something. I have a problem with the word ‘dynamic’ or ‘dynamics’ because I perceive it as a ‘filler word’ like ‘thing’ that conveniently circumvents the causality of the process that we’re describing. I know that I have learned from E-Prime, Operational Language, and Performative truth (testimony), that most pretense of knowledge, and most inductive reasoning from that pretense of knowledge, is the source of sophistry and pseudoscience. So am I wrong in this perception (I hardly think so), or is there another term or set of terms that I could use (and you could use) to explain the behavior of an adaptive system instead of ‘dynamic’?

    ChatGPT
    Your perception of “dynamic” or “dynamics” as potentially being filler terms is not without merit, especially within the context of your emphasis on causality, operational language, and performative truth. These concepts advocate for precise, verifiable, and actionable language that avoids ambiguity and encourages clarity in communication, particularly in scientific and philosophical discourse.

    The term “dynamic” is often used to describe systems or processes that are characterized by constant change, activity, or progress. While it serves a purpose in summarily conveying the nature of such systems, your concern lies in its potential to gloss over the specific causal mechanisms and interactions that drive these changes. This can indeed lead to a superficial understanding or explanation of complex phenomena, which is at odds with a rigorous epistemological approach.

    To address this concern and align with the principles of E-Prime, Operational Language, and Performative Truth, you might consider adopting more specific language that explicitly describes the causal processes and interactions within adaptive systems.

    Here are a few suggestions:

    Causal Mechanisms: Instead of referring to a system as “dynamic,” describe the specific causal mechanisms that drive its behavior. This directs attention to the underlying processes and how they produce change.

    Interactive Processes: Highlight the interactions between components of the system that lead to its adaptive behavior. This term emphasizes the relational aspects and the network of influences within the system.

    Systemic Evolution: Use this term to describe the adaptive changes of a system over time, focusing on how it evolves in response to internal and external stimuli. This captures the idea of progression or development without losing sight of causality.

    Feedback Loops: When explaining the adaptability of a system, discuss the presence and role of feedback loops. These are crucial in adaptive systems, where output from the system is fed back as input, leading to changes in the system’s behavior.

    Adaptive Response: Instead of “dynamic response,” specify that the system exhibits adaptive responses to specific conditions or stimuli. This term is precise and highlights the system’s capacity to adjust or modify its behavior in light of new information.

    Operational Dynamics: If you prefer to retain a variation of “dynamics,” consider coupling it with “operational” to focus on the operational aspects of the system’s dynamics. This combination stresses the mechanisms and principles that govern the system’s behavior.

    By employing these alternatives, you can maintain the precision and rigor that your work demands, ensuring that descriptions and explanations are both causally transparent and aligned with your epistemological standards. This approach not only avoids the pitfalls of vague terminology but also enriches the discourse by providing a clearer understanding of the complex interactions and processes at play in adaptive systems.

    CurtD
    Hmm… Adaptive Operations and Processes sounds about right to me?

    ChatGPT
    “Adaptive Operations and Processes” is an excellent choice for a term that combines the clarity and specificity you’re seeking. It effectively captures the essence of systems or phenomena that are characterized by their ability to change or adjust in response to their environment or internal dynamics.

    Here’s why it works well:

    Adaptive: The term emphasizes the system’s capacity for adjustment and change, highlighting the evolutionary aspect of the process.

    Operations: By using “operations,” you focus on the specific actions, mechanisms, or functions that enable the system to adapt, providing a clear view of the causal elements at play.

    Processes: This adds an additional layer of depth, suggesting a series of actions or steps taken by the system to achieve adaptation. It implies a sequence or flow of activities that lead to the system’s dynamic behavior.

    Together, “Adaptive Operations and Processes” conveys a comprehensive understanding of how systems respond and adjust to changes, emphasizing both the mechanisms (operations) and the flow or sequence of actions (processes) involved in adaptation. This term aligns well with a rigorous analytical approach, ensuring that explanations remain grounded in specific, actionable, and causal terms.
