    WHAT IS THE LEFT DOING, HOW, AND WHY?
    (undermining distributed responsibility, in order to generate demand for centralized authority)

    The left is making the individual (somewhat like libertarians are) the object of government, policy, legislation and law, instead of the family – for the simple reason that (a) under agrarianism the dissolution of the primacy of the family was unimaginable because the family was the insurer of last resort of the individual (b) the state has tried to replace the family as the insurer of last resort of the individual (c) the state has set the indiviual as the primary subject of policy (d) because our constitution and our law did not (correctly) establish the intergenerational family as the first necessary system of production upon which social, econmic, political, and strategy ‘production’ depends.

    So it’s quite easy to fix the policy that has given the left the tools to undermine the family, the purpose of all social, political, and strategic order the intergenerational family, and the economy the means by which to supply the satisfaction of the demands of that hierarchy of orders.

    We evolve and we learn. We have learned that the anglo enlightenment was correct, and the rench, german, jewish, and every other enlightenment has been not only incorrect, but a revolt against the anglo empirical enlightenment. We have learned that while it was beneficial to organize the inclusion of the middle class, that we were wrong to dilute the nobility and replace it with credentialed clerisy. We have learned that inclusion of the working class required a separate house not dilution of the middle class house. We have learnd that the inclusion of women was far worse than the inclusion of the working class without a separate house – becasue the houses constitute juries of demonstrated capacity for responsibility for others. And women avoid responsibility for others (at their cost) at all times, and instead, seek to produce irresponsibility for themsevles and others at all times.

    As such these questions are all relatively simple to fix – but only after having produced the evidence of the failure of each of teh additional classes, and then restoring the government as a market between the classes for the satisfaction of their wants – adminstered by people who have demonstraed capacity in the satisfaction of human wants, and not one that consists of a managerial government and a clerisy of credentialists with no demonstrated competency for the solution of real world problems with real world people, given the available incentives to do so without coercion – which is the only tool the govt has.

    You (martin) are obsessed with the woke movement, the irresponsible feminism that results, and see everything through that lens. When our job is to produce a solution for not only that movement but all future such deceptions and frauds, by discovering and curing causality not chasing ‘effects’ like they are feral cats.
    😉

  • Intersexual Conflict: Overstating the case to make the case? –“There is no burd

    Intersexual Conflict: Overstating the case to make the case?
    –“There is no burden of performance on female competence, which is why women get away with saying ****** ****, which is why no one gives a **** what y’all think.”– F&F Miami August 2, 2023 (ouch.)

    (Note that F&F has been recently demonetized by YT. There is an organized effort to purge social media prior to the election cycle, just as there was leading up to the last, and after, as I’d warned. Somehow the organization (conspiracy) of attempts to silence public debate has not ended up in the courts as a class action. I assume this legal correction will occur in the next two to five years.)

    Though, AFAIK, this criticism by F&F is largely directed at younger women. And so I think all of this overstates the case, and it’s only the present young generations are most devoid of competence and especially responsibility.

    In the scientific literature, the phrase is “Both men and women coddle women”. And the less sanitized version is “Men don’t take women outside their sphere of responsibility seriously”.

    Why do we behave this way? Well, women (least when fertile) have intrinsic value, but men must demonstrate value. The burden of performance is entirely male. Although it doesn’t tell us why either sex continues to demonstrate this behavior.

    My understanding both from the literature and from running large organizations is that neither sex takes women’s speech seriously outside of their direct sphere of control. Or, more generally, we tend to listen carefully to women on the empirical (what they observe) and to men on the theoretical (what they predict).

    The same is true in all areas of performance: we see smart women in the empirical and practical but the theoretical and innovative is entirely the domain of men. Why? verbal, pictoral, empathizing, and juggling many, vs spatial-temporal, systematizing, and predicting fields of outcomes. That’s the cognitive difference between the sexes and it’s obvious in the organization of neural connectivity in our brains.

    But:
    Women have been able to capture the majority of white-collar clerical jobs and are financially secure at a younger age than their male counterparts. So the intersexual market asymmetry is profound.

    IMO many to the majority of these jobs are about to vaporize, because these are the next layer of jobs to be replaced by technology. While repatriation of industry, beginning with strategic and increasing to most, will rebalance this sex difference over the next decade.

    However, at present rates of marriage and reproduction that means that there will be no workers to pay for their retirement, health care, or even keep prices down.

    Destroying the family wasn’t a very good idea. 🙁

  • THE WESTERN WAR MODEL IS WRONG… (Sorta) HERE IS WHY: –“THEORY: U.S. and NATO

    THE WESTERN WAR MODEL IS WRONG… (Sorta)
    HERE IS WHY:
    –“THEORY: U.S. and NATO military strategists are taught that the decisive part of a war resides in the major combat operations phase. BUT: America’s post-9/11 wars and the Ukraine War have proven that’s not so. INSTEAD: Rather, using force during major combat operations, and after, together form the necessary and sufficient conditions to achieve the strategic political objectives of a war.”–

    I’m not sure why we have to keep learning this every century, but the Western position is a remnant of European war between monarchies and states over economic control of resources.

    In the european theatre of war, and part of our civilization’s concept of war (See The Culture of War by Von Creveld, and The History of Warfare by Keegan). Why? You must defeat an enemy on his civilization’s terms, and in doing so achieve political and strategic victory.

    There is a tendency of ‘Gentlemanly’ European historical warfare, because of our domestication of warfare (yes really), certainly from the peace of Westphalia thru to the Geneva convention, in various agreements on the rules of war, culminating in the declaration of human rights. (Something that we cannot hold other civs to – it’s a degree of morality alien to them.) We cannot civilize uncivilized people. They must civilize themselves out of incremental self interest.

    Instead, either (a) war is an extension of politics, or (b) politics is a proxy for war, or (c) both. In other words. you must defeat both. And you must defeat the will to fight on the terms by which those who fight will modify their behavior.

    So you cannot win the war with battles on your terms, and instad you must defeat the enemy on the terms by which the political order (who decides), in their civilization (the men who fight), will change from what they are doing to what you wish it to be doing.

    This is easier with governments, but it is impossible with religions and ideologies. In other words, you must defeat (or kill) the carrier (host) of the idea that is causing the aggression. So it is better to fight a government than a religion or ideology, because the latter requires not just attacking the. military, or the leadership, but the population as a whole.

    This is the law of war. Clausewitz, Machiavelli, and Sun Tzu all failed to see the entire picture. But Machiavelli was closer to the most important insight: morality does not exist in war. It is a purely empirical pursuit, with the utility of the post-conflict relations the only constraint on the degree of violence that must be inflicted to end the conflict.

    Why am I stating this right after a post on Nietzsche? Same reason: Historical theorists lacked a global understanding of war in a period of marginal indifference in warfighting.

    In other words, the culture must be defeated on its terms, not yours.

  • LET’S SCIENCE THE QUESTION: (Yes the Science Exists) There are four primary race

    LET’S SCIENCE THE QUESTION: (Yes the Science Exists)

    There are four primary races:
    1. African (and at least two generations in africa, and two out)
    2. South eurasians from mediterranean west africa to eastern india. (and hybrids with east africa (arabs)).
    3. East Asians (including american siberians)
    4. Europeans (from spain to the urals)

    Where: East African rift valley, Dry Persian gulf (west, east), European borderline ice sheet (or slightly east), and Tibetan plateau(we think).

    Others: Every other group (subrace) is a hybridization of these races. If we are truthful, races are species, because they adapted to local geography despite human reproductive “adaptability” (see males having sex with anything at all) can continue to hybridize easily.. And because humans are the only group in the entire tree of life we treat differently by the use of the term Race rather than Species.

    Painful truth: The direction of all human evolution is neotenic evolution, with travel distance from east africa producing increasing for the four major races (species).

    Neoteny results in preservation of childlike features, reduction in maturation, reduction of aggression, and extension of lifespan and adaptive plasticity. Survival in warmer climes limited neotenic pressure, by preserving opportunity for dilution.

    Sequence: African > South Eurasian > European > East Asian.

    Before the agrarian diasporic revolution, the four races were as distinct as europeans, africans and east asians.

    Today the europeans are the newest race but east asians the most neotenic. Why? Isolation in east asia. Higher neoteny in west eurasians than in anatolian farmers (swarthiness), or steppe herders (sheer size, and blonde hair.)

    The sexual market value of the races is dependent upon degree of neoteny vs genetic load – in women. But women are attracted to anti-neotenic properties and as such are devolutionary in their natural . So we should expect to see exactly the selection preferences demonstrated by dating and marriage biases that are so thoroughly measured online with massive data support.

    Shh: degree of neoteny (domestication syndrome), and the inability to separate due to local population density and climate, are the reasons for minor developomental, lifespan, behavioral, personality trait and intelligence differences between the races.

    How long before we end the lie of human indifference so that we can provide different education and training for groups that mature differently by different rates?
