    CROWDING OUT

    Men and women both crowd out the other under scarcity and prosperity. This is adaptive as long as it avoids either extreme.

    RULE OF LAW PRODUCES TRUST, AND TRUST PRODUCES OPPORTUNITY FOR RISK

    —“Many people keep deploring the low level of formal education in the United states (as defined by, say, math grades). Yet these fail to realize that the new comes from here and gets imitated elsewhere. And it is not thanks to universities, which obviously claim a lot more credit than their accomplishments warrant. Like Britain in the Industrial Revolution, America’s asset is, simply, risk taking and the use of optionality, this remarkable ability to engage in rational forms fo trial and error, with no comparative shame in failing again, starting again, and repeating failure.”
    ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb,

    THE ACADEMY LIKE HOLLYWOOD PRODUCES WORSE WORK PRODUCTS THAN INDIVIDUAL CRAFTSMAN IN EITHER INDUSTRY

    Um. helps to keep in mind that the academy provides funding for thought and obviously subsidizes bad thought. Whereas thought leadership in history did not come from the academy but from wealth sufficient for literacy and time for study. In other words, it is not clear that the academy produces better intellectual work products than individual craftsmen, any more than Hollywood produces better art products than individual craftsmen. And the evidence appears overwhelmingly the opposite: that the academy, entertainment industry, media, and democratic state, produce higher volumes of bad quality everything.

    THE CHINESE CREATED THEIR CULTURAL REVOLUTION WITH VIOLENCE AND POLITICAL INTENT. WE DID IT WITH A SELF ORGANIZING MARKET – WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM THAT DIFFERENCE?

    Their ‘Cultural Revolution’ involved granting liberal tolerance to defectors, then rounding them up and brutally killing them in the streets. A uniquely Chinese degree of practical political violence. Their difference in value of individual human life, and intra-cultural trust is evident. A difference we have only attributed to competitive outsiders and religious defectors.

    Our ‘Cultural Revolution’ (means of identifying defectors, and those with in-group defects) is a free market where the defectors and defective are self-identifying by self-organizing.

    Where the Chinese exterminated to maintain homogeneity, we can merely politically separate.

    *Revolt. Separate. Prosper. Speciate.*

    Look at the current crisis – genocide against our people – as an opportunity to voluntarily exit from the gene pool those costly genes that impede our transcendence into Overmen (gods).

    Where we could struggle for another thousand years or more to produce a eugenic meritocratic, aristocratic, high trust, high commons, order – we can instead, radically separate not only others, but our own, and make a rapid leap in evolutionary progress.

    Revel in our time. Few men have the opportunity to leave a mark not only on history – but on the transcendence of mankind.

    This is the greatest opportunity since the failed construction of Roman Walls. Again – the Chinese succeeded where we have failed; for the simple reason that they use extraordinary violence to produce a hierarchical monopoly, where we use the violence necessary to produce a market of voluntary cooperation.

    This insight helps us understand not just the Chinese method, but how our method differs, and where it is stronger (innovation and velocity) and where it is weaker (markets make one vulnerable to greed that consumes genetic, cultural, institutional, behavioral, and knowledge capital.)

    —“Only the autodidacts are free.”— Nassim Nicholas Taleb,

    I would never have been ‘permitted’ to develop Propertarianism (Natural Law) in the academy. The simple reasons that (a) interdisciplinary phd’s are nearly impossible, (b) taking 10+ years to solve a hard problem is unacceptable. (c) publishing along the way to a solution only serves to anchor you in a falsehood. (d) the academy forces presumptions (paradigms) that are false due to its market incentives to produce educational products rather than truth (in other than the physical sciences).
