WHITE RELIGIONS AND OUR DIFFERENCES
“Pagans(scandinavians)”, Protestants(northern europeans), catholics (central, southern, and eastern europeans), and orthodox(eastern europeans) have different traditional (ancestral) cohesions to draw upon.
We cannot intuit across traditions without living them and trying hard to adopt each.
I am working to eliminate all falsehood. My bias is to eliminate falsehood. The way I learn to eliminate falsehood is by deflation: I attack all falsehoods without exception until i understand the problem such that only the underlying truths remain.
I never make excuses for convenient falsehoods. I understand that goods come from falsehoods, but that betters come from truths. I try to discover those truths and construct the ‘goods and betters’ without the falsehoods. Some people can tolerate this degree of dispassionate slaughtering sacred cows, and some cant.
Orthodox peoples have not had scandinavian, germanic, or catholic histories – although the history they do have is closest to the germanic(martial), and culturally closer to the catholic(lower trust) than to the scandinavian (including english), and german (highest trust).
Commensurability and compatibility exists across truths but not across falsehoods.
So while I can understand you, with some effort, you cannot understand me without much more effort.

I don’t have antipathy toward interest. I have an antipathy toward rents. And if we are borrowing from the treasury and paying interest that’s just rents.
Banks, in the era of fiat money function only as insurers of borrowing from the treasury, with interest as fee for insuring one another’s borrowings from the treasury.
But since in practice there is nearly zero risk and liability, that interest is not earned. Ergo if we are converting capital from future to present there is no CHOICE of investment wherein the private holder of an asset is paying an opportunity cost.

—“Henry Ford wanted essentially one perfect car, free of lies (technical imperfection is a form of lie), and sold on a perfectly honest conditions – i.e. the buyer has to be debt-free (and prove it) and no Ford had to be sold on interest, ever. These principles actually hurt Ford company financially, as other companies that produced technically imperfect, but beautiful and comfortable (deceptive) cars and sold them on interest to the debt-ridden population of the world (dishonestly) made quick gains in the 1930s. But Ford did not budge until he was convinced by Roosevelt that the whole US state needs to move forward, and it depends on Henry Ford being flexible about his moral stance. Being rather moderate Episcopalian, not a staunch Calvinist, Ford found a way to compromise.”— Igor Rogov
