The founders designed a third way, where we could pursue virtue – but the left merely seeks escape from that pursuit.

—“The Founding Fathers had a similar goal [to Doolittle]. They believed a republic existed to create the perfect structure where a man could pursue virtue, or was free to pursue virtue, explicitly rejecting any hedonistic concepts of “freedom”. They did not consider any form of democracy fit for non-virtuous men who did not have virtue as their primary goal. That it would descend into chaos. A complete monarchy populated by virtuous men is far preferable to a democracy infested with unprincipled degenerates. As we’re observing, in real time.”—James Louis LaSalle

SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF DEMAND FOR LEADERS VS AGENCY
—“I wonder what percentage of people just want to be comfortable with their master?”—Andrew M Gilmour
It’s a lot easier for certain, and this is why we must have hierarchies, competing classes, but a market for cooperation between the classes as we increase in scale, to compete with those doing the same.

EQUILIBRATING GENDER COGNITIVE LOAD: TRIBES
—“I’ve thought of who’s the most clearsighted of all. Is it married mothers with many children? Or is it some male category?”— atalay oral @baetsailray
WOMEN grow rational increasingly with each child, and my … educated guess .. is that female cognitive load evolved for five to six children, which his how many can survive at once in most conditions.
Male nervous systems evolved to include the tribe, territory, and resources, of which females are a resource. So we deal with collections.
Female nervous systems evolved to include her offspring: individuals. Until she ‘average’s a ‘tribe’ like males, she is not able to produce intuitive averages similar to males: TRIBE.

EVIDENCE OF THE PROMISE OF THE P-METHOD
Michael Churchill made me aware today, Luke yesterday, Alain and Martin over the past month, bill over the past few years, that y’all are taking P and increasing the precision of knowledge across the spectrum by reorganizing the descriptions of observed human behavior into the paradigm – a paradigm contiguous and continuous with the physical sciences -and creating new insights by doing so and it’s f—king exhilarating, because it’s evidence of my underlying theory that P will be as influential in our understanding of the psychological and social sciences as empiricism was for the physical sciences, and that we will, if work work hard, bring about a revolution in thought and mankind just as great -and possibly more influential – than the physical consequences of furthering the Aristotelian program that we call ‘science’.

GENIUS. CHURCHILL ON CAPITAL
—“Capital is the rabbit strategy in nearly every aspect. Machines need quantity over quality — and it is not even close. Quality to create the machine, quantity to move the machine’s product.”– Michael Churchill

—I designed a science, logic, law, and government for the mankind we have not the mankind we wish we had – but that will evolve us into the mankind we wish we had.– Curt Doolittle

—“Libertarians generally get economic issues, but they do not have a consistent view of the use of force. I suppose they are perfectly consistent if they are genuine ancaps, but really very few of them are, and that kind of Rothbardian view of humanity is pure fantasy, just as deluded as Marx but with some economic literacy thrown in the mix to dazzle and confuse people”— Daniel Jordan
