    MOVING THE GOAL POSTS

    —“The left is always moving the goalposts. If you point out that the welfare state (compassion + bureaucracy + taxes + regulation) generates sloth, parasitism, irresponsibility, etc, you might get the answer that “you, too, would be slothful, etc. if you had to face what the average poor person faces everyday”. In other words, the old model of poor people as poor people with middle-class values/sensibilities is gone. Apparently, capitalism is a game of economic musical chairs in which millions of (once) poor folks make it into the lower or middle-class but somehow a vast underclass gets left without jobs, thereby triggering the underclass traits we all know and love.”–

    WHAT ABOUT THE BLEEDING HEARTS?

    That begs the question: are the bleeding heart libertarians moral or immoral?

    Or said correctly: (a) do they intuit and prefer an objectively moral society, and (b) would their vision produce via institutions a moral or immoral society? (c) And would this society produce sufficient morality to produce liberty? (d)Or would it produce increased or decreased demand for authority? (e) Are they creators of immorality, or are they vectors for lies or not?

    I think that they are an interesting contrast against immoral libertines.

  • The silly-tarians who argue from moral intuition, and nothing else – they aren’t

    The silly-tarians who argue from moral intuition, and nothing else – they aren’t harmful, or vectors for lies.

    Traditional libertarianism (versus immoral libertinism) is a combination of what we consider morality, psychology and law.

    It is a skeptical political science driven by historical evidence not a specific prescription for actions, not a claim to authoritarian scripture (as is all cosmopolitanism).

    It raises the e question of whether the cosmopolitan moral blindness is an artifact of centuries of debating scripture versus reality – and like all cultures the cosmopolitans were blinded by enforced ignorance.

    I don’t have to do anything.

    Let the bulls run.

    Let loose the dogs of intellectual war.

    Moral man needs only moral authority.

    After that, it’s all his choice.

    And his honor.

    His glory.

    Truth is enough.

  • I understand the western moral man: he must have moral authority to coerce other

    I understand the western moral man: he must have moral authority to coerce others into moral behavior.

    He will not coerce others into any behavior without moral authority.

    As such, we merely needed to give western man moral authority to act to coerce the immoral, in order to produce the true, the good, and the beautiful.

    Because unlike scriptural or totalitarian civilizations, our western philosophy is not written down in positive form. It is written only in criticisms of the results of our unwritten behaviors and traditions.

    That is why we had to write it down in aristocratic egalitarianism, Propertarianism and testimonial truth.

    To give moral men moral authority to punish the wicked until they are no longer wicked, or the flee, or they die.

    Truth is enough.

  • The problem scientists solved with the so called scientific method, was to train

    The problem scientists solved with the so called scientific method, was to train the mind to eliminate imaginary content, so that they could morally testify to the truth of their statements.

    So, scientists needed to compensate … they need ed to tell the truth… As such, what we call the scientific method is not particular to science but to all human utterances. It is either just ‘the method’, or it’s the MORAL METHOD.

    Now, scientists merely make use of a SUBSET of the Moral Method, given that they are both largely unaccountable, and pay no opportunity costs. Mathematicians likewise are unaccountable, and pay no opportunity costs.

    But anyone engaging in the social rather than physical sciences, or in production, or in law, is likewise bound to not engage in adding imaginary content.

    —“…From a strictly evolutionary perspective, any human is capable of more creative production than another animal, and capable of contributing to the orderly distribution of resources in free exchange. But because of at least a century of success-shaming, poverty-praising, and subsidizing, coupled with accelerating automation, there are a mass of people who are zero-sum in the economy, who need not be. How we appeal to them without giving them something undeserved is the big question.”– Steve Pender

    Create Wealth. Speak the Truth. Punish the wicked. Never surrender. Show no mercy, give no quarter. Defeat your enemy completely. And if needed, kill them all and let god sort it out.

    Rather than seek approval or consent, offer support, kindness, affection, love, and education to fellow moral men. Never cede control to the immoral – which is what asking, begging, working for, approval and consent give him. Instead, spend your efforts on the true, good and beautiful. Never compromise or suffer the immoral, unethical, the deceitful, and the fool. Merely defeat, conquer, punish and ostracize the wicked.
