MENGER, AUSTRIANS, AND GHETTO ETHICS

—“Hey Curt, would you say that Carl Menger displayed a certain amount of “ghetto” ethics/philosophy in his writings? The young German historical school (Schmoller etc.) criticized him for being over-individualistic and having no sense for concepts like “Volk” or nation. And he did come from the fringes of the empire (Galicia, just like Mises). Some researchers even speculate about Menger’s family background being Jewish. I would love to hear your opinion about this.”—

Comparative analysis puts this in perspective.

What do Iceland, Colonial America, the Wild West Expansion, Poland, and Ukraine have in common?

What they have in common is being borderlands that are defended by great powers, yet little administrative and cultural dominance over them.

What did the Ancient Greeks/Romans, North Africans (before they were destroyed by islam) have in common?

Greek individualism was a means of resisting the great power of the day – the Persians. Without the Persians there would have been no greek reaction to them. This is the same struggle we face today. We have Jews here at home and in the west, and Persians in the middle east. Both of whom are more aggressive than we are today.

What was occurring at the point in time that Marx, Freud, Menger and Mises were writing? Effectively the eastern ‘borderlands’ were going through the cosmopolitan enlightenment.

Hayek writes as an aristocratic Austrian – from the point of just rule. Menger and mises write as middle class eastern european polish/german jews. Marx, Freud, and Boaz write as separatist subculture jews.

WHY? Because the parasite cannot imagine that he is dependent upon the host, the subculture upon the majority culture, the lower class upon the upper class, the ghetto upon the host people, the borderland upon the nation, the non-core state upon the core state of the civilization, any more than mankind can imagine he is dependent upon gravity for his survival.

These peoples have no sense of folk because their myths, religion, traditions, history, manners, ethics, morals – in fact their entire metaphysical foundation, has never ‘held land’. And that is what ‘folk’ means: “the people with whom we hold this land, and without which we cannot hold it.” This is the aristocratic ethic: we parent a people such that together we may hold land, create production, create generations, and in doing so produce monuments to our success.

The Jews have no monuments, no land, and no landholder ethics. And just as we cannot think as do asians, jews cannot think as do westerners. in no small part because we have evolved very differently and our ‘software’ (cultures) program us to persist that evolutionary strategy.

While indo europeans share the same root language and much of the same genetic record, we evolved over the past 5000 years (at least) very differently. The Persian/Jewish, the caucasian indian, the ‘border tribes to the north of india’, the european(atlantic, southern, northern, german, slavic) peoples evolved very differently and demonstrate different distributions of talents.

The ashkenazim have been both the most aggressive in capturing european genes and thereby increasing their intelligence, and at the same time outcasting non-performers, increasing rates of reproduction of high performers. But this is ALSO a product of time and place. Different traits are more valuable in different competitive conditions. And we are entering a new era.

And I want to create a new era in which truth makes impossible the means by which financial predation and cultural parasitism are impossible without severe retribution.
