    Why aren’t more Rothbardian libertines angry that they were duped?

    Why aren’t more classical liberal libertarians angry that they were ignored?

  • MHO: the only test of one’s capacity is his mastery of this hierarchy: Historica

    MHO: the only test of one’s capacity is his mastery of this hierarchy: Historical, Moral, Rational, Critical, Decidable, and Prescriptive argumetns in propertarianism.

    Individuals do not need to master all of them. Only those that they can make use of.

    1) The sets of narratives describing the historical evolution of truth and incremental suppression and how this reduces all costs and forces all people into productive production and exchange.

    HISTORICAL

    2) The division of perception, cognition, knowledge, labor, and advocacy as demonstration of reproductive strategies, and voluntary exchange as the only means of making use of that disparate information. The evolution of a market for goods and services (consumption) and a market for commons (investment).

    MORAL

    3) The strict construction of propertarian arguments as a description of incentives, in various matters of human cooperation and conflict.

    RATIONAL

    4) The strict construction of criticism of statements under testimonialism using all 7/8 criterion

    CRITICAL (SCIENTIFIC)

    5) The strict construction of law enforcing all of the above in matters of dispute.

    DECIDABLE

    6) The construction of propertarian institutions.

    PRESCRIPTIVE

    MUST READ

    (FWIW: I have thought for a long time Eli would catch or pass me. This piece is perfectly constructed, and well written. This is how it is done.)

    ARE FUNDAMENTALIST MOVEMENTS RATIONAL?

    If you mean by ‘rational’ to imply ‘justificationary’ for the purpose of granting higher ontological status to internal consistency than internal correspondence, then yes.

    That is the meaning of “Fundamentalist”: internally consistent but non correspondent.

    We can treat FUNDAMENTALISM as a reaction to RATIONALISM, just as we can treat SCRIPTURALISM as a reaction to REASON.

    Both technologies and their modern equivalent :

    (PSEUDOSCIENCE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS are a Reaction to SCIENCE.)

    Seek to give higher criteria for decidability to internal consistency rather than external correspondence.

    This is also the source of the various sects that attempt to create “Social Justice” and “Social Truth”.

    AMERICAN EUPHEMISM FOR MY UKRAINIAN FRIENDS

    In response to surprise that someone is ignorant of something:

    —“Where have you been?!!”—

    In other words: “How the hell did you not know that? Were you living under a rock? Are you oblivious to the world around you?”
