  • ” to be able to = have the freedom to = own the right to = be entitled to = own

    —” to be able to = have the freedom to = own the right to = be entitled to = own my personal body & mind. No ???”—

    No those things are not in any way equal.

    1 – Able to: dependent on your ability to physically think, plan, and act.

    2 – Have the freedom to: have purchased membership in a group that tolerates your consumption of opportunities to act in your self interest, as long as it is not contrary to the group’s interests.

    3 – Possession is a fact, but ownership is determined by contract with others in the group that defends the order.

    4 – A Right can only consist of a demand from a third party enforcer (insurer of last resort).

    The libertarian ethos of pastoralists “what I can get away with” is different from the sovereign ethos of landholders “what will not impost costs upon others”. This is why (((certain))) groups use polylogical ethics, and other groups lke northern europeans use logically consistent ethics.

    So the marxist -> postmodernist -> libertarian -> neocon spectrum uses many argumentative ’empty verbalisms’ that conflate the meaning of these terms in order to obscure their underlying lack of logical and empirical consistency.

    This is why the Crusoe’s island example is a construcitve fallacy for the purpose of deception. The ocean forms the fortress walls of the island. The ghetto walls do the same in the city. And the borderlands that indefensible do the same in the countryside. But there are no territories not owned by empires. Only those that the empire grants certain privileges in order to encourage settle ment by excess population unable to compete in more established areas.

    It’s (((Their))) whole counter-reaction against the scientific revolution. I use key figures to show a trend, (Boas, Marx, Freud, Cantor, Mises, Frankfurt school, Rand/Rothbard, the SPLU/ACLU but the number of them resisting modernity is nearly all of them. They want cosmopolitanism (pastoralism) as do women, where they are not responsible for territorial commons. But if we look at where that’s been tried (levant) it requires oppressive empires, expands tribalism, and generates low trust conditions, and poverty. I’m not sure, since (((they))) and cosmopolitanism has failed everywhere else, why they think ‘this time will be different’ . It wont. Rousseau and the french start the trend that evolved into the technique we call postmodernism. Kant expands it. Marx expands it, and when marxism fails the french then invent postmodernism, and (((they))) adopt it as well. The french are deeply feminine, and anti-aristocracy. (((They))) are deeply feminine and anti-aristocracy. We are deeply masculine and deeply pro aristocracy. And it’s pretty easy to see that the effeminate prosper under our ‘protections’ but that they will take it too far into undermining us with the privileges we give them with aristocracy (markets in everything).

    Update: intolerance for aspirin (stomach problems) turned into ‘life threatening’.

  • “People talk about the failure of democracy. I see no evidence that we have live

    —“People talk about the failure of democracy. I see no evidence that we have lived in this system for the past hundred years. only that we have been told we live in this system and that it is the best.

    All of the loud voices for the wonders of so called liberal democracy have been liars, and people who readily violate the concept they supposedly embrace.

    It is lies and liars, more than anything that has lead to our situation,more than any political beliefs or institutional structures.

    Other folks can survive and even thrive with a culture of deception. it clearly kills the european. we do not always have to know the truth, or be paragons of honesty to the last man. but we must be focused on approaching the truth, questing for it, and living it, in spite of any obstacles.”— Neil A. Bucklew

  • CAUTIOUS OUTREACH I’m interested in input from atheist ex muslims who have STEM

    CAUTIOUS OUTREACH

    I’m interested in input from atheist ex muslims who have STEM or economics/finance education, and whose profile pages I can feel confident approving as friends. I have a pretty good network in the spanish speaking world. I’m building a good network in africa of people I can count on for advice and insight. I hope to reach out to china this year but that’s going to be ‘bloody’ I think.

    I have recently lost a few people in the islamic world because while I have already worked through judaism and christianity, I am now working through islam – or rather, the arab conquest, and I”m losing people to my criticisms just as I lost christians and jews working through their ‘abrahamic nonsense’.

    The problem is that while jews and christians have passed through the enlightenment and while christians have completed their counter-revolution against it, and jews are just ending their counter-revolution against it, the muslims are deep in the midst of it, and do not have a clear vision of their future once that history has been historicized (converted to history and science). So while I do find people in Turkey fairly frequently, I seem to have trouble finding ethnic persians and arabs.

    It takes a great deal of moral courage and intellectual honesty to overcome the deceptions that began thousands of years ago, and to acknowledge the horrible consequences that each of our cultures have put upon the world because of these falsehoods, as well as because of the profitability of conquest and empire. So the number of people that I can work with is limited to the extremely intellectually brave and honest.

    So I’m going to remind people the very DISCIPLINED way in which I work. I work via-negativa. I make arguments to undermine every assumption we hold dear, so that I can find the few ideas that are ‘good’ underneath them, and the counter intuitive ideas that produce negative externalities, and the outright falsehoods that produce constant damage to every human generation.

    And again, it is not easy to do this in the first place, and it is not comfortable. And it takes a certain kind of person to follow me on this journey.

    In the end my opinion is this: the primary difference between groups of homo-sapiens-sapiens is in the sizes of our underclasses, and the achievements of the far ends of the west and the east are due to our ability to reduce the relative sizes of our underclasses, while this hasn’t been equally possible in other parts of the world.

    Or in very simple terms, If we all speak ‘aristotelian’ then anyone capable of speaking aristotelian ‘science’ is compatible. The problem is there is a threshold by which we can speak ‘aristotelian’. The underclass is a dead weight and always has been.

    In this sense, all of our peoples can transcend (evolve) in to the gods we once admired.
