FEMALE STRATEGY
The female r-selection strategy also includes: increasing your numbers decreases your risk of (a) bearing the dominance of and abuse of an alpha, (b) bearing unwanted offspring by undesirable mates (c) engaging in status competition with other females and losing (d) running out of allies and assistance in production and care-taking (e) running out of allies in rallying and shaming the alphas (f) defecting to another group if unhappy is less provocative if you’re defecting from larger to smaller numbers (g) hiding in the herd reduces your chance of being eaten – safety in numbers.

( some days are splendid. some days are good. some days are ordinary. some days are bad. some days are worse. some days are horrid. unfortunately, we get the last kind now and then. sigh. so eat. we sleep. we soldier onward. liberty does not wait for us, nor does it care about our days. )

TRUE ENOUGH? IMAGINE A GRAMMAR THAT REQUIRED PROMISED TRUTH CONTENT
(worth repeating) (extension of hierarchy of truth) (interesting for language geeks)
***The purpose of science is not to convey the experience but to provide decidability in matters of dispute over existence regardless of experience.***
Lets note the difference between the following points of view.
1 existence,
2 experience of the universe,
3 utility in determining one’s action,
4 observation of an action and consequences
5 justification of the results of one’s action,
6 warranty in recommendation of action*,
7 and decidability in conflict*,
…describes a spectrum of problems we must understand. Our grammar does not readily address these differences, and our problem of the verb to-be exacerbates the problem since ‘is’ evolved specifically to avoid the problem of articulating this spectrum, thereby allowing the audience to infer it.
I work on the last two*. I think humans are pretty good at experience and utility. And some of us are pretty good at justificatoin. Largely, since justification is the language of morality, most people tend to use moral language.
Imagine a language that required you address these seven degrees of truth in one’s grammar. Imagine the kind of self awareness one would need to avoid conflation of each of them.
We have enough problem with people saying “it’s true for me” when they mean that it is sufficiently useful for me to act”.

Dear Russian Friends. Americans are not Cunning. They are not smart. They are not devious. They are Utopians. They all desire to be the heroic, chivalrous, sheriff or knight. They want to save the world. They work hard. They try to do the right thing. They cannot imagine an untrustworthy world any more than the low trust world can imagine a trustworthy one. The west has no designs on russia other than to unite us all. If we can get russians to speak the truth in public russia can be the army and labor of the north, germany the technology industry, Britain the bank, and america the land of invention and law.

UNIFICATION OF THE CIRCUMPOLAR PEOPLES
(trigger warning)
If the Russian president simply ceases his perpetual lying and propaganda, and speaks straight, and does not seek to expand the borders, then Russia will become the leader of the world. Russia is a low trust high corruption society plagued by the problem of oil wealth that must be used to bribe people into compliance with the state. But this is also an advantage: no appeal to popular female sentiment and signaling privilege from the academy.
THE DIVISION OF CIRCUMPOLAR COGNITIVE LABOR
American Utopian High Trust Risk (gambling) – invention
British Moralizing high trust (risk taking) – banking
German Duty high trust duty (planning) – industry
Eastern European low trust low risk – labor
Russian nihilistic very low trust – military
Chinese perpetual adoration of deception and face as a deliberate strategy of conflict avoidance until amassing overwhelming force. – ie: deceit.
My feeling, evolving over the past decade, is that we should unite against the muslim world which is the existential threat to the circumpolar order. Christian Africa is not a threat. The muslim world is the intellectual cancer of the lower standard deviation that threatens both authoritarian, social democratic (mediterranean and eastern european) and libertarian (hanjal-saxon-british-protestant) civilizations.
We tell people to be tolerant when we should unite to eliminate islam just as we united to eliminate babylon and marxism.
Much of islam was christian and it was undoubtably a better place as such.
(I will certainly get hammered for this one. But it’s where I’m ending up.)
