    PHILOSOPHY AND IDEOLOGY

    Technically speaking all **Paradigms** (ontologies) serve as (relatively) coherent systems of measurement, decidability, choice, and preference given the information (knowledge) at our disposal.

    * *Decision: Measurement(existence) > Decidability (necessity) > Choice(agreement-time) > Preference (satisfaction-now) *

    **Philosophy** (like logic) is a widely abused (overgeneralized) term, because only Europeans invented and practiced rational philosophy under constraints of realism, naturalism, and testimony (empiricism) as investigatory and continuously adaptive rather than explanatory and static.

    Even such we divide european philosophy into Aristotelian (Testifiable, Empirical, Legal, Scientific) and Platonic (Ideal, Literary), and later Abrahamic Synthesis (Augustine, Acquinas) that tried to bridge semitic supernaturalism and European naturalism. And this distribution remains today as Anglo (legal, analytic) and Continental (literary, empathic). And our fundamentalists retain the Abrahamic Synthesis. As do jews and Muslims maintain their fundamental Abrahamism.

    The broader term that refers to the equivalent of European philosophy across all civilizations regardless of it’s composition (Aristotelian, Confucian, Platonic, Buddhist, Abrahamic, Hindu) is ‘**wisdom literature**’.

    So we label other society’s wisdom literature as ‘philosophy’ by analogy, but this a misapplication of the term. Instead, all civilizations had to, and did, produce a wisdom literature as a system of measurement that limited description, decision, choice, and preference to **coherence** with (or advancement of) the group’s survival (evolutionary, competitive) strategy.

    The structure and content of that wisdom literature was and remains dependent upon the **order of the development of civilizational institutions**.

    This is probably a lot to absorb, but there are only **three methods of coercing** humans: force threat or defense, material reward or lost opportunity, or social threat or social advancement.

    We develop systems of State (Bureaucracy), Social (religion), and Trade (Law) in some order. The difference in our means of persuasion – our ‘wisdom literature’ is dependent upon the order. With the last of the three developed the weakest or non existent.

    * *State(Bureacracy) using ****force**** <-> Law(Judiciary) using ****deprivation**** <-> Social(Religion) using ****ostracization***

    Just as Philosophy is an abused term, so is **law**. The west developed rule of law and politics. No other people produced law or politics. They produced command and rule. So there exists rule **OF** law, rule **BY** legislation, rule by tradition (religion, priests), and rule by regulation (bureaucracy), and rule by command (authority).

    * *Rule of Law <-> Rule by legislation <-> Rule by Tradition <-> Rule by Regulation <-> Rule by Command*

    **The west developed law first**, the state with Rome, and formal religion only with Xianity. The far east developed state and bureaucracy first and neither religion nor law. And the middle east developed religion first and state second and never law; The Jews developed religion and law but not state. Arabs religion and neither law nor state. And Indians religion and limited law and even more limited state.

    **PHILOSOPHY AND THE MIDDLE AND UPPER MIDDLE CLASSES**

    We use philosophy as the lowest order system of measurement – in an attempt to organize a **paradigm of decidability **within a given domain of questions. Once we have discovered it, and it is coherent with all other paradigms, under the paradigm of realism, naturalism, and operationalism – we call that a science.

    However, the sciences can only provide decidability (universally). They can only inform choice (between people). They can only inform preference (by the self). But we are faced with a kaleidic universe, limited personal abilities, limited energies, limited resources, limited knowledge, limited sexual, social, economic, and political market value, and the resulting limited relationships.

    What consistent paradigm of decidability will assist the individual, the family, the alliance, the organization, the class, the bias, and the polity or the civilization in maximizing the return on our time on this earth?

    That is the role of philosophy: choice.

    The role of science: decidabiilty (no choice)

    The role of the logics (measurement)

    The role of Argument (truth), Philosophy (choice), ideology (political power), theology (power), deceit (theft, fraud) each have their functions.

    **DEMOCRACY GIVES RISE TO IDEOLOGY**

    With the displacement of the aristocracy (limits on the people and the state), the decline of Church, Pulpit and Theology, the replacement of the Church with the (leftist) Academy, the rise of leftist pseudoscience, the rise of mass production, mass printing, mass radio and mass media, and the opening of the franchise to the unpropertied (unaccomplished), then we were faced with the problem of organizing a population to act to bring about policy changes.

    **The purpose of ideology is not coherence**, not consistency, not truth, but to motivate a population to bring about policy and political change

    What is the difference between ideological conquest in the modern world and theological conquest in the ancient world? There isn’t any. In the ancient world and in the modern world the technique is the same, with the justification switching from supernatural and sophomoric to pseudoscientific and sophomoric. In all cases ideology is a means of motivating those lacking the knowledge to decide, to grant power such that policy can be changed.

    Why? Representative democracy forces this behavior; the population is not capable of the knowledge necessary to choose; and the population is vulnerable to false promises of freedom from physical, natural and evolutionary laws – and there is no longer a short term constraint on political action by hard (commodity) money.

    Ideology is closely related to propaganda. propaganda to postmodernism. Postmodernism and propaganda to theology. And propaganda, postmodernism, and theology to the Abrahamic tradition of undermining populations from within.

    **PHILOSOPHY IN THE SPECTRUM OF HUMAN SPEECH**

    1. **Physical** Sciences: Descriptions of constant **physical** relations (causation)

    2. **Formal** sciences: Logics are systems of measurement of constant **symbolic** relations.

    3. **Behavioral** Sciences: Description of **operational** relations (incentives, actions)

    But what comes after these?

    **THE GRAMMARS**

    Think of **The Grammars** as a **Periodic Table of Speech**. This list is severely abbreviated but it will get the general idea across rather quickly.

    HOLOCENE

    The terms “Neolithic” and “Bronze Age” are culture-specific and are mostly limited to cultures of the Old World. Many populations of the New World remain in the Mesolithic cultural stage until European contact in the modern period.

    9,000 years ago: large first fish fermentation in southern Sweden.[41]

    8,200–8,000 years ago: 8.2 kiloyear event: a sudden decrease of global temperatures, probably caused by the final collapse of the Laurentide Ice Sheet, which leads to drier conditions in East Africa and Mesopotamia.

    8,200–7,600 years ago (6200–5600 BC): sudden rise in sea level (Meltwater pulse 1C) by 6.5 m in less than 140 years; this concludes the early Holocene sea level rise and sea level remains largely stable throughout the Neolithic.[42]

    https://researchgate.net/figure/Estimated-standardized-scores-on-criminal-involvement-wave-3-and-4-by-political-ideology_fig1_309845639DRAFT ON TERRORISM AND CRIME BY POLITICAL AFFILIATION

    Goal: To demonstrate that the cognitive masculine-feminine dichotomy also appears in criminal, social, political ‘crime’ (terrorism). The female (left) cognitive bias to social warfare and the male (right) cognitive bias to political warfare. This mirrors left (solipsistic) vs right (analytic) cognitive differences

    Note 1: Notice that Wikipedia (a) creatively moves the left-wing activism of the 1960’s out of the page so it’s not counted. (b) keeps the KKK data in, (c) only shows graphs and data from 2008 forward so that it doesn’t include the leftwing data. In other words, they keep in the abortion clinic bombings by the religious right, but remove the weather underground bombings by the left.

    Note 2: I’ve taken the Islamic terrorist acts out of the list since that’s a different matter.

    Note 3: You can’ feel the sea change in ’92 just as I said, when ‘whites’ begin to see the future, and Clinton undermines the military.

    Data includes:

    Right Wing(6), Anti-Jewish(8), KKK(8) abortion (36), foiled (34) 9

    —vs—

    Left terrorism (16) political left (74), Foiled (9), and riots by the left (15). Total (114) And endemic criminality of left (67%).

    Just what you would predict:

    (a) Right Political Violence (Sporadic) vs Left Social Violence (endemic).

    (b) Postwar left period. Post-1990 Right Period. With Islam taking all the attention from the Right.

    FOILED PLOTS

    THE POSTWAR LEFT PERIOD

    LEFT: June 1940: Two dynamite bombs were discovered outside of the Philadelphia Convention Hall during the Republican National Convention. A total of seven bombs were discovered in the greater Philadelphia area during this period.[217]

The problem is that you eventually run out of ‘resources’.

  • No, I don’t need better security. I had fantastic security I am forever thankful

    No, I don’t need better security. I had fantastic security I am forever thankful for. What I need is for people to show up, and stay on our strategy of taking the moral high ground despite the man-boy drama queens who want better men to instigate violence on their behalf. We want press (words), not optics (video). We want to engage the opposition not war with them. We want the government to be the problem for both sides not just us. So we just need to state our zero-tolerance for aggression policy. State our message “no more lies”. “Gandhi” our way out of any conflict until they aggress. Get out, and celebrate. (Which is the fun part). Our position HAS to be that all sides have legitimate grievances and that our grievances cannot be solved by political cohabitation under a monopoly federal government. We need to get our message out so that we have the moral high ground. It’s only once the message is out, and the enemies are exposed for what they are, and can no longer hide behind optics and victim narratives that we have ‘choices’. Moral high ground gives us the choice that lowering ourselves to the enemy’s field doesn’t.
