—“It’s amazing how upset people can get when you tell them we know what makes christianity good and what makes christianity bad and that we want to get rid of the bad. the whole “christianity is perfection, man is the problem” frame of mind, I understand… however… it traps you with an intuitive argument. and we know intuition readily protects falsehoods.”—Micah Pezdirtz
hmmmm…. I thought the whole point of highlighting the lies of Abrahamism was to forever eradicate pitting brothers against each other over religion.
My stance, not that it matters, hinges on the private-public distinction. I don’t care, nor do I proclaim to have authority over what others think or believe in the private sphere. If you want to hold metaphor or allegory as real then I say have at’er- not my business, nor does it impose costs on me if you choose to do so. Further to that, I wouldn’t fault a man for doing so.
However, within the public sphere, these claims will be held to account – FULL ACCOUNT – including, but not limited to, the false claims that Christianity is the essential component to western thriving – it’s simply not. Western thriving did not occur until law and governance were abstracted away from religion into their own respective institutions…
So here’s the deal – until the religious begin reporting truthfully in the public sphere or keep their private assertions private or qualify their public statements about private beliefs; we will continue to prosecute publicly…. that’s all that is going on here – prosecution of public lies – prosecution of private-public conflations.

Always struck me as a wonderful term. ;)Nov 26, 2018, 10:46 AMDavid ParkerCurt Doolittle someone used it on tds, the third rail, or possibly ftn recently.
Why aren’t you hosting a podcast anyway?Nov 26, 2018, 11:41 AMDavid ParkerCould make it like once a month or something. Have trs syndicate it.Nov 26, 2018, 11:44 AMCurt Doolittletell me what you would like to see in a podcast like that?Nov 26, 2018, 11:44 AMDavid ParkerBig brained ideas being spoken in less scientific terms so people get comfortable talking about them, rather than thinking.
Could also have random shitpost sessions where you discuss destroying degenerates(like op.)Nov 26, 2018, 11:49 AMCurt Doolittleok. so, more conversational, with some shit talking (comedy)Nov 26, 2018, 11:50 AMAndrew GribbleBy going over the “news of the week” and suggesting how your philosophies could be used to negate the problems….appeal could be widened.Nov 26, 2018, 11:51 AMDavid Parkerexactly. Basically, a podcast let’s you convey ideas in less abstract terms; in other words, just the other day, I heard about this or that. Then marry those to your concepts.
It’s another form of learning. I would assume Socrates and Plato wouldn’t trade their spoken arguments for more text.Nov 26, 2018, 11:55 AMM. Garrett RothI love the regular podcast idea — I have a lot more time to listen (while driving, cooking, etc.) than to read.Nov 26, 2018, 12:17 PMDaniel Roland AndersonSeriously, what’s the deal with Affirmative Right and Colin Liddell?
Is he controlled opposition, or is he just stupid? Can’t be that stupid, right?Nov 26, 2018, 1:00 PMCurt Doolittleyes he can. stupidity is a low bar…Nov 26, 2018, 1:16 PMAndrea RoyallI’m going with stupid.. I’d love to see Augustus chew him up franklyNov 26, 2018, 1:22 PMAndrea RoyallI did see my buddy Dave go all echoes on the post though….Nov 26, 2018, 1:27 PMAngus JamesonIt’s funny, Curt. You can engage ignorance and dishonesty for hours and hours and yet, at the point of bare bones mental fatigue and you move to TV or bed, for sure some idiot will tell you that they got the last word.Nov 26, 2018, 2:12 PMAndrea RoyallOf course they do.. LOLNov 26, 2018, 2:13 PMDylan NewmanAffirmative Right is a thoroughly dishonest page and that’s not an exaggeration. Virtually post and article is full of lies attacking our side.Nov 26, 2018, 5:55 PMCaduceus MercuriusHe’s Scottish and so has a tendency towards Philo-Semitism as well as an inclination to absolve the UK of all wrongdoing in WW2. Perhaps one of his grandparents was a veteran and so it’s in part an emotional thing.
It’s also possible that today he’s got a couple of Jewish friends. Not uncommon within the Alt-Lite (Jared Taylor etc.): they are willing to talk about Blacks, and in Europe about Muslims, but not about Jews.
In any case, Colin’s life nowadays revolves around distancing himself from National-Socialism and troll sites like The Daily Stormer etc.Nov 27, 2018, 12:44 PMDaniel Roland AndersonCaduceus Mercurius
Thanks for the insights. I hope the guy is doing good work somewhere, but if the Right doesn’t coalesce on the JQ, we’ll be doing this all again with a new set of vulnerabilities that (((they’ll))) take advantage of.
They aren’t the whole story, but they are more of a piece of that puzzle—and involved in every major issue plaguing Western Civilization—than some on the Right believe.
If you’re not an ethno-nationalist, and savvy the JQ, I have a hard time.Nov 27, 2018, 12:52 PM
—“It’s been a rough few months for me, as I grapple with the difficulties of shedding an indifferent religious upbringing and serious religious commitment in adulthood. Right now I’m angry. I hate that Augustine and Aquinas wasted their minds on nonsense. I think Thomas would have completed propertarianism 800 years ago, but here we are.”—Ryan Williams

You know I first heard about this yesterday when someone sent me a photo of one of the report forms.
I”m not quite sure how I feel about it. I mean, abstractly, its funny as hell as a creative prank. Whether the IRS would act on it, is something else. Given that I think the IRS is the most criminal of institutions I have a problem with licensing them against anyone. Depriving low income bimbos of hard currency is not something I feel good about. Whether the consequence would mean de-funding those sites that stream crime, gore, accident, and fail videos is all I really care about. I’m perfectly happy if the sexually desperate pay cam girls in order to provide me with free streaming of crime around the world.
THE CONFLATION AND EXAGGERATION OF CRIMINAL DATABASES
POLITICAL
They have screwed up the terrorist database by conflating terrorism with rebellion, insurrection, and crime. (Political)
SOCIAL
They have screwed up the mass shootings database by conflating family murders with social wrath. (Social)
PSYCHOLOGICAL
They have screwed up the serial killer database by conflating the repeatedly violent or commit multiple acts with those who develop plans for killing in and of itself. (Psychological)
SEXUAL
They have screwed up the sex crimes database by conflating uncontrollable risk with controllable risk crimes. (Sexual)
CRIMINAL
They have screwed up the criminal database by conflating crimes the crimes by severity of punishment rather than motive and risk. (Criminal)
WHITE COLLAR
They have all but licensed white collar and informational crime on scales that is terrifying. ( Fraud )
—As members of cults we are always in conflict over the legal systems under them, since those legal systems are arbitrary means of advocating different group evolutionary strategies of cooperation – all of which, under religion, despite their early utility, evolved to be more hinderance than good.
As member of the Love of Man, of our Peoples, In nation-states, producing commons suitable to our needs, we are not enemies but allies in a division of labor producing the transcendence of man.
If there is a better religion than that I do not know what it is.
But it is the one I am proposing.
A religion of the love and transcendence of man into gods, not into the subjects of priests and politicians, investors and industrialists.—
—“…Stop talking about fucking religion all the time and get back to strategizing against the neoliberal world order and promoting anti-poz behavior.”—Dylan Newman
Sorry man. I’m working on the constitution and it’s statements on religion so I had to test some ideas. I should be done and will move on again shortly.
I got stuck on the debt-creation concept a few weeks ago and only felt I got my arms around it in the past week.
Working through that problem meant trying a lot of arguments from a lot of angles. And this forum is where I run experiments, and people try to refute them, and I learn from that ‘market’ activity.
Doing my job. It’s part of the job.
That said, I am profoundly proud of working through the problem of religion. It is the hard problem of social science.
And worse, like Truth Telling, it is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE to produce a good religion and extremely cheap to produce a bad one. Law and Markets are trivial achievements by comparison.
