    —“WHAT ARE CULTURE, SOCIETY, AND POLITICS?”—

    (updated)

    …1. Culture: Traditions (myths, rituals, festivals, group strategy)

    …2. Society: Norms (behaviors, manners, ethics, morals)

    …3. Politics: Laws (rules, institutions, commons)

    Yes, it’s really that simple. And:

    …4. Religion: Indoctrination, ritual, traditions, myth – The Undecidable and intuitionistic.

    …5. Education: Forms of Calculation – Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Sentience, Reason – The Decidable and rational.

    …6. Training: Practice of Crafts – The Actionable and possible.

    Yes. Once we deconflate these things they’re obvious.

    SORRY BUT YES, ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS ARE THE SAME AS MARXISM AND FEMINISM: SAME STRATEGY DIFFERENT STORY

    —“Abrahamic religions completely are the opposite of Marxism and feminism. The Bible and Koran repeatedly condemn everything to do with those. I don’t get this Nordic pagan hardon business. “— Mike Samuels

    Follow me longer. I don’t have time this morning to construct your understanding.

    Here are a few tips:

    Nothing to do with nordic paganism.

    Everything to do with falsehood and deceit.

    Falsehoods of Supernaturalism-Occult, Pseudoscience, and Pseudo-rationalism.

    Pseudo-rationalism of Pilpul and Critique.

    PIlpul (justification, excuse making) and Critique (disapproval, gossip, rallying, shaming, and ridicule).

    Both of which are Female methods of argument, and express the female group evolutionary strategy.

    Same technique and objective: undermine alphas.

    Generation 1: Judaism > Christianity > Islam (Supernaturalism) -> Fall of Empires, Invasion, and Dark Ages

    Generation 2: Boasianism, Marxism, Freudianism (pseudoscience) > Postmodernism > Feminism (pseudo-rationalism) -> Fall of Empires …. Invasion.

  • PERVERT, PERVERSION – THESE ARE MORAL TERMS, NOT SCIENTIFIC. BUT…. These terms

    PERVERT, PERVERSION – THESE ARE MORAL TERMS, NOT SCIENTIFIC. BUT….

    These terms – “pervert and perversion” – are moral terms (shaming) used (evolved) in the pre-scientific eras, to inarticulately describe the normative, traditional, institutional and genetic costs of loss-inducing behavior and genetics.

    Those costs exist. The question is only whether or not we can afford them (temporally), and if we can afford them, what are the unseen costs of affording them(inter-temporally)? Diversity (normative, cultural, and religious) is disastrously costly over the long term. Tolerance turns out to be a terrible idea. The most intolerant group always wins.

    So the question isn’t the use of these moral terms (perversion, tolerance, diversity) it’s the scientific (economic) fully accounted costs that replace those moral (imprecise) terms with scientific (precise) terms. As far as I know the principle difference between the standards of living of people is cultural, and the reason for cultural differences is genetic, and the reason for genetic differences is in the scale of the underclasses. And the scale of the underclasses force the norms, traditions, culture, and institutions of the group by dragging them down to the median.

    It may be true that in the period of transition from subsistence farming to market economies in the industrial era, that we can afford many luxuries of tolerance, but it is increasingly obvious that once technological differences are equilibrated, that the standard of every group of people is determined by the size of their underclass in relation to their middle and upper classes.

    And worse, it’s increasingly apparent that this trend will continue and keep pace with the gains in reasoning ability that we obtained from the institution of aristotelianism (scientific thought).

    Meaning that the current employment concerns that can be solved by credit expansion will end shortly, and the only competitive advantage and therefore standard of living of any group will be determined by their genetic distribution relative to other genetic distributions, and the normative, traditional, cultural, and institutional means by which those different groups cooperate.

    Ergo, pretentious virtue signaling talk alluded to in the original post is nothing more than failing to account for costs both seen, unseen, temporal and intertemporal. There are no free rides. Only temporary gains and losses, the accumulation of which must in the end limit itself to that balance sheet we call the universe.

    Something happened around the black sea, probably in old Europe, the caucuses, Anatolia or Mesopotamia, and it led to the bronze age. That something had to do with the area serving as the nexus of intercontinental trade. The ‘explosion’ of civilization (meaning technology) radiated from there outward. It is nearly impossible to reach west africa by east-west overland route. So the empires that were forming in west africa were just about at the same level of development as everyone else the same non-linear travel distance from the center of the world. There were empires, but there simply wasn’t enough trade ‘out there on the fringe’. Now we can argue about IQ, yes, but that didn’t stop the south americans.

    Europe lagged mesopotamia, egypt, hrappans, and yellow river china for the simple reason that africa lagged europe: lack of sufficient production capital to tax to form armies of imperial conquest. Rivers concentrated production and concentrated production allowed defense and taxation. the rivers of europe, the steppe, the desert, and the tundra are not as productive. That is why it required mediterranean trade in the old world, north sea trade in the medieval world, and atlantic trade in the modern world, to bring europe to economic parity.

    We have nothing to sell, but everything to gain. The only choice is conquest or secession. Conquest continues the demographic burden, while secession provides a demographic leap.

  • DIVISION OF INTERTEMPORAL COGNITIVE LABOR = DIFFERENCE IN AFFINITY FOR STORIES.

    DIVISION OF INTERTEMPORAL COGNITIVE LABOR = DIFFERENCE IN AFFINITY FOR STORIES.

    Um. Don’t be ridiculous. Parables of Wisdom appeal to Conservative (long term) intuition the way Stories of Experiences appeal to Liberal (short term) intuitions.

    We divide the labor temporal efforts between the sensibilities of the genders – admitting that the weak adopt the female and the strong adopt the male, regardless of gender.

    Hence, Peterson’s appeal to conservative intuitions.

    TO STATE THE OBVIOUS WE ARE COLLAPSING EXACTLY AS DID ROME.

    —“Which historical empire collapse do you see as most similar to our current situation? Mongols? Rome? Habsburg’s? Something else? Or are we so different nothing is really analogous?”—@dagmar_schmitt

    The study of history tells us all empires collapse for the same reasons: overextension, bureaucratic calcification (rent seeking), demographics dilution and immigration, (disease), and raiding.

    However, in our case we are most similar to Rome (policing trade to obtain discounts) and less similar to the British (colonies and extraction to obtain premiums). Not really similar at all to the Habsburgs or Mongols or byzantines for that matter.

    This subject is worth a case by case examination, but we are mirror image of Rome in every single dimension. History does repeat itself. Although what troubles me is the second version of abrahamism (marxism, feminism, postmodernism). We failed to defend against it this time too.

    PEOPLE DON”T WANT TO GIVE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH TO MACHINES…. HERE IS WHY.

    To take a life we demand warranty (accountability) and machines escape it. The only form of restitution for life is life. One may take no action beyond one’s ability to perform restitution. So demand for a life to take a life. Legal Prose Merely Reflects Moral Intuitions.

    Evolution gave us moral intuitions. we describe those moral intuitions via natural law. It’s very simple really.
