    The libertarians are going crazy.

    I asked a few questions about how this sort of culling would be analogous to hangings in early Europe.

    I also asked about why they think the west did so well.

    The consensus being the west created a strong economy that gave us the middle class.

    It’s so difficult to raise the idea that maybe eugenics by design or proxy prevented predation and allowed the peace and cooperation to secure economic development.

    It really is a libertarian fantasy that man was oppressed as opposed to domesticated.

    WHAT BAD ACADEMIC PHILOSOPHERS DO….

    Listened to a roundtable of Philosophers from The New School discuss the questions “what is philosophy” and “is it relevant”, and was … exasperated.

    There were four basic themes to their (Marxist) discourse:

    1) the did not seem to grasp the spectrum of ‘comparative’ or perhaps ‘calculative’ methods, and simply referred to different disciplines instead of the properties that these methods include and test, and exclude and do not test.

    2) They do not understand that most of what they are saying are mere word games: they start with a term and try to define it’s meaning, rather than start with a problem and solve it, or start with a term and see what it CAN ONLY mean.

    3) As Marxists they are desperately trying to create a verbal religion wich will provide either the skepticism or authority of religion in order to avoid the obvious evidence of Darwinian necessity.

    4) They were trapped into the fallacy of seeking the ‘truth’ while at the same time seeking to construct a lie, and of course this is the reason for their intellectual struggle.

    There was only one philosopher (Cornell West) who I would find interesting to debate, because he seeks to avoid the truth in order to find peace in inferiority. I have compassion for this problem. But I solve it through trade which costs, but does not create conflict, not through denial and deceit which costs because it creates conflict. The Buddhists and Stoics’s solved this underclass problem of acceptance through behavioral modification. The stoics truthfully and the Buddhists … I guess pseudoscientifically or pre-scientifically if that’s possible. The Hindus created a history-mythology which is impenetrable to the rest of us. Everyone in the three ‘books’ religions just lied about it, so that they could pretend to solve it.

    (Wrote something wonderful … and fb ate it. I swear I’m going to intentionally install my own keylogger so that there is always some record of my scribblings.)

    PHILOSOPHY: (quick sketch) Transcendence.

    PERSONAL(epistemology). Avoid false knowledge. Discover useful (~true) knowledge. By the use of reason. Using Methods of Reason: narrative(communication), rational(comparison), rationalism(non-contradiction), logic(internal consistency), cooperation(ethical consistency), physics (empirical and operational consistency), testimonialism (truth). This provides us with Personal Transcendence: The Hero’s Journey. Philosophy can be performed in fantasy narrative, in historical narrative, in rational and logical (set) argument, in empirical, and in testimonial terms. But throughout we are Loading, Unloading, Imagining, Comparing, Valuing, and Deciding. All that differs is our skill in each method, and whether we wish to influence (loading-empath), deceive (obscurantism, suggestion), or persuade (truth-objectivity).

    POLITICAL (cooperation)

    Avoid error and deception, discover utility and truth. Using the methods of reason, and the methods of argument:

    Group Transcendence via persuasion.

    PHYSICAL (physics)

    Transformation via action:

    AESTHETIC (biological)

    The Goal of Transformation.

    The Useful(actionable), True(Ethical), The Moral(Good), The Beautiful(Bounty/Fertility/Content/Perfection)

    HOW DID I END UP IN THIS INTELLECTUAL MARKET POSITION? (irony)

    As a libertarian, my prescriptions were often Friedmanite solutions to social democratic preferences. As an alt right libertarian I advocate paying the lower classes not to reproduce at replacement levels, and to limit immigration to 115 and above IQ’s in technical disciplines.

    The reason being that I prefer to live in a high trust society with many commons and high redistribution, including ‘dividends’ on the economy (variable and unpredictable basic income) because the labor market pricing structure is out of balance with productivity. And I have come to understand that ‘retirement’ and ‘delayed adulthood’ are catastrophes.

    The single reason I’m associated with the ‘hard’ right is that I’ve come out so aggressively against the great lies of the 19th and 20th century. And that those great lies are just deception constructed as a psudoscientific version of the prior deception constructed in judeo-christian-muslim mysticism.

    But that’s not my central argument. I also state that the enlightement philsophies from all eruopean cultures: Anglo(Empirical/Legal), French(Moral), and German(rationalist) philosophies were equally false, and contradictory to what made europa exceptional and ‘faster than the rest’. It’s true the anglo and german philosophical frameworks were false, but at least they were beneficial, while the french and Jewish frameworks were catastrophes for mankind.

    I’m happy I’ve given young men a language with which to communicate the feelings of their internal voices. And I’m proud that I succeeded in my life’s ambition: to create a language for the rational, scientific comparison of ethical, political, and group competitive strategies. So our generation is armed to the rhetorical teeth so to speak.

    But let’s not lose sight of the broader insight, that TRUTHFUNLESS dictated that I return the philosophy of liberty to its aristocratic origins as the TRADITIONAL DISCIPLINE – if not science – of the western aristocratic excellence in the application of organized violence to domesticate mankind by the incremental suppression of parasitism – thus forcing him into productive labor in order to survive and reproduce, and converting the proceeds from our efforts into Truth, Goodness, and Beauty.

    ITS TIME TO DO SOMETHING NOBLE…

    (worth repeating)

    I think many of us were attracted to libertarianism under the assumption that we could do something noble with what we found there.

    But we were wrong.

    We can still do something noble however.

    But we must do it at the Point of a Knife, The End of a Spear, The Blade of a Sword, The Barrel of a Gun, and under the Gavel of the Natural Law.

    We gave the world a chance to join the aristocracy. And they failed.

    The experiment is over. It’s time to rule again.

    So pick up your knife, spear, sword, rifle and gavel.

    It’s time for us to make Law.

    LABOR vs CALCULATING, ORGANIZING, NEGOTIATING, RISKING.

    (important)

    Labor itself is trivial in its contribution to value compared with the organization of production, and the organization of the institutions that make possible the organization of production at scale. We get more paid for calculating than laboring, more for organizing than calculating, more for negotiating than organizing, more for risking the accumulated results of laboring, calculating, organizing, negotiating, and risking more than for negotiating. Man does not need to persuade the physical world to choose from a multitude of options according to preference. The physical world cannot choose. Man can. And it is convincing large numbers of people to chose to produce some set of various goods and services in an enormous complex web versus choose to work toward producing some other set that is the difficult job that individuals in each layer of our hierarchy are paid more for, than the labor to force the world to change, versus the calculating, organizing, negotating, and risking that it takes man to change.

    /www.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-tries-to-clarify-ukraine-comments-155957129.html

    How can you possibly misunderstand Trump in the context of this conversation unless you’re TRYING to be dishonest?

    Trump’s media-friendly colloquialisms converted to complete sentences:

    “Mark it down: Putin will not invade Ukraine on my watch”

    “The people of Crimea have decided to stick with Russia and it’s hard to argue with that”

    Apparently, the reporter doesn’t grasp that Trump is honest but careless because it always works in his favor: He is singlehandedly ending the media’s influence on the electoral process. And that is why his supporters admire him. They are hoping trump will end the century of pseudoscience and propaganda we call ‘political correctness’.

    TRUTH

    Crimea was a Russian possession and its inclusion with Ukraine a bureaucratic snafu under the late soviets.

    Crimea is Russia’s only warm water port. Strategically there is no comparison for the united states. Only china’s dependence upon the south china sea compares to Russia’s dependence upon the warm water port.

    The Donbas Basin bordering Russia is where the Soviets built many of their arms factories – and without those factories, the Russian army could not continue to modernize – their plans would have been set back as much as a decade.

    Putin ‘panicked’ when Yakunovych (the corrupt ex president) arrived in Moscow and said that the Ukrainian revolution was a western coup (it was a local reaction by nearly everyone in Ukraine to the decision not to join the EU and save the Ukrainian economy, and her people, from constant poverty.) When the fires of revolution started in Moscow and St Petersburg He panicked further.

    Instead of calling western leaders and saying “I am sorry that I must do this but it is a strategic necessity that Russia cannot do without and we will compensate the Ukrainians with discounted petroleum products for decades to pay for it”, he used reverse asymmetric warfare, and captured Crimea and started the fighting in the Donbas. Then he sent ‘little green men’ to capture Crimea, more to invade the Donbas, armed the local unions and gangsters to the teeth, and sent waves of 200 to 400 white trucks with so-called ’emergency supplies’ to dismantle the equipment at the arms factories and, ship it back to Russia where the plants could be reconstructed and the maintenance and repair of the Russian military could continue.

    Russians are who they are for the simple reason that they cannot believe Americans are as naive as we have demonstrated that we are with our idealism. Putin was happy to join nato and the west. It is incomprehensible to Putin that he must conduct an HONEST educational campaign to win over the American people first. And incomprehensible to him that our state department is stupid enough to ask Russia to follow regular process for such things. This is not how ‘things are done’ in Russia. They do not beg.

    This is something Trump understands.

    That is why he doesn’t speak in platitudes.

    Well you know, he is right. It’s in the data. We have decades of it. And it’s an open secret in the industry.

    I still don’t understand how anyone can argue with it.

    The marginal difference in talent in the creative industry is very meaningful. It is much more meaningful than in any other industry outside of the top one tenth of a percent of intellectuals.

    Because of the slight genetic advantage men have over women at the extremes, but the vast marginal difference in results at the extremes, we would expect to see a certain distribution of genders. And we do.

    Nobody complains that women have displaced nearly all the men at the center of the distribution where women dominate. But for some reason it’s surprising that men dominate the extremes of the distribution.

    Sorry but it’s not bias. There are just two to four to ten to one hundred men for every woman at the top of the talent distribution. And men demonstrate higher loyalty. And loyalty is an asset. And that combination means that we should have seen peak distribution of women already.

    And that’s what the data shows us.

    Just like women communicate in a much more rich set of signals than men do, and they are invisible to us and discounted as irrelevant if we do see them, women equally fail to grasp the depth and importance of loyalty and sacrifice that men subtly communicate to one another, and women discount it as nonsense when they do see it.

    But we evolved these behaviors and perceptions for good reasons and we would cease to be human if we lost them.

    We are compatible but we are not equal in any way other than our ability to be attempt to be compatible with one another.

    We had enough psychological, sociological, anthropological, economic and political pseudoscience for one century. It’s time to move on.

    It interferes with our compatibility.

    Cheers.
