    Very nice young college girl here I have known for the past couple of years (waitress in one of my favorite places.) We always chat. She is friends with another girl who reminds me very much of my daughter Caitie. I love that there are good people everywhere in this world if you try to find them. Always support the young folk with promise. Care is contagious and acceptance is gives them energy. Same with the young men I run into. I remember being 23. OMG. We need to give them all the help they can get. 🙂

    Pay it forward.

    Working on Big 5 vs Big 6, vs Propertarianism, vs MBTI.

    Now, MBTI Maps to most of Big 5, if we express big 5 as spectra rather than as ideal types.

    I think I can unite the three models using propertarianism and change psychology forever, by laundering it of this… awful legacy.

    Philosophy: “Testimonial Science”

    Well, we usually define philosophy as either the love of wisdom – in the ancient sense – or in the modern sense, the search for truth.

    My work is an effort to define truth, so that we can prohibit falsehood and the use of falsehood as a means of theft, parasitism, predation and conquest.

    So as far as I know I have produced the most total definition of truth and means of identifying it as has been achieved as yet. (and it seems hard to do better really.)

    This definition of truth causes the convergence of biology, morality, philosophy, law, and science. Which is in itself an achievement, and we call this kind of utility “explanatory power”. This truth has a great deal of explanatory power.

    I call this ‘existentially possible’ and ‘complete’ truth “Testimonial Truth”.

    And since science and philosophy are merged by using this definition of truth, I argue that philosophy should be reframed (relabeled) as “Testimonial Science”.

    Meaning, the science of speaking the truth.

    WHERE HOPPE SHINES

    If Hans Hoppe is reasoning using incentives he’s flawless. I hang on his every word. We just need to keep him away from justificationism and he’s safe. In other words, he’s a much better economist(social scientist) than philosopher(testimonial scientist.). I’m beginning to think that ‘testimonial science” (philosophy), is the hardest subject of all. We are not evolved for truth telling. We are evolved for negotiation on cooperation. And while he does very well, his upbringing in philosophy is an albatross that burdens his legacy. If he, unlike most, but perhaps like Russell, admitted this prior to his death he would be remembered as one of the greats I think.

    THE RECIPE OF OUR DESTRUCTION?

    1) WEASEL WORDS + REASONABLENESS -> 2) PSEUDOSCIENCE + RATIONALISM -> 3) MYTH + MYSTICISM -> 4) LYING + PROPAGANDA.

    Not sure why I didn’t think of this earlier but Weasel Words and Reasonableness, and Pseudoscience and Rationalism make use of the same basic technology for lying.

    What technology: Analogy, Loading, Framing, Overloading, and Suggestion.

    This is how they hacked our altruism.

    Damn.

    ( I really did it. That’s it. )

    Isn’t it how women talk to each other? Through indirection and suggestion? Whereas men talk in facts? So am I right that the jews and the church and now the academy and state weaponized the female communication strategy of superior empathy as a means of suggestion?

    That’s why they distribute it through women. They’re more open to suggestion than men. OMG.

    Yep.

    Lower prices are not an intrinsic good.

    They appear to be bait for consumption.

    Higher productivity is hard to argue is not an intrinsic good.

    Saving the Results of Productivity Increases, rather than expanding the population, appears to be an intrinsic good.

    In other words, encouraging hyper-consumption is an attack on the commons.

    MOTHERHOOD IS A MUCH BETTER DRUG THAN THE KIND FROM THE PHARMACY.

    I like having kids around the house. A lot. Assuming that they don’t jump on me too much or pose a risk to my technology. lol. It’s like you can get and give hugs in volume all the time. I am just not entertaining for children. And I am a terrible babysitter for wee ones ’cause I really have no idea what to do. And my brain is always working on something. But especially if your wife loves taking care of them, or you have a nanny, then it’s awesome. You can be a lifeguard, and your spouse can be cruise ship director.

    I’ve had my own families. I’ve been able to spend enough time with three other women’s kids, and it’s sort of all dependent upon the woman. There are some women who love being mom, and some that find it partly fulfilling but not enough to do full time, and some that seek to avoid it as much as possible.

    The superwomen in my generation got screwed by feminism. they’re old, accomplished, single or in bad marriages, and they either don’t have kids or have kids with issues. here I see dozens of women every day who choose family first, and they just have less money, but literally none of them seem ‘crazy’ like so many desperate american women.

    I mean, American women are evidently crazy as hell from the amount of drugs they’re taking.

    Motherhood, and grand-motherhood are much better drugs than those you get from the pharmacy.

    americans are unhappy because they’re lonely.

    The lies of pseudoscience. That’s what did it.

    And women were the carriers of the disease.
