  • Vegetarianism

    ‘—“The libertarian case for veganism: Sentience extends to cows, chicken, pigs & even fish. These are beings with a consciousness. They experience pleasure and pain, bond with their young & pursue their own purposes, even if they are simple purposes such as seeking food”— via Quillette

    Let’s avoid conflating sentience, awareness, and the consciousness spectrum – and prevent overreach. These things are our food. Not abusing them and not eating them are two different things. And the reason not to abuse them is that we don’t want such people in our midst. (See attached definitions.) Secondly, pejoratively, the female nervous system evolved to carry a cognitive load that included empathy with offspring. Just as when men aren’t supplied with competition they behave dysfunctionally, when women aren’t supplied with emotional load they find “strange obsessions”. Vegetarianism, like animal activism, political activism, or gossiping and undermining, is among the strange obsessions that women devote their cognitive demand for emotional load to in the absence of more constructive outputs (children). The problem is there is no check on women. There are many checks on men’s antisocial behavior in fulfillment of demand for cognitive load – although sports, and video games are wasteful they aren’t harmful, and business and the arts are constructive. There are no such checks on women’s behavior.’ —“The libertarian case for veganism: Sentience extends to cows, chicken, pigs & even fish. These are beings with a consciousness.

  • The difference between western thought and all other thought

    Jan 27, 2020, 9:19 AM The difference between western thought and all other thought is the difference between zero and one: infinite. Why? Truth, operationalism, completeness. Yeah, western thought is harder, and less intuitive, and less satisfying and not at all sedating. It is, however, the only means by which we have converted the universe to an instrument of man’s will.

  • Fixing Court and State

    Jan 28, 2020, 8:58 AM (important)

    –“Women are able to make false accusations (for example of domestic violence), and they can lie to the courts without repercussion. How would you deal with this?”—Will Peavy

    This is one of the examples of ‘female privilege’ that has gotten out of hand. In my divorce, Allora said I had threatened to burn the house down as a means of coercing the court to lock the house and seize the assets. This was a lie. We had discovered black mold in the house, and I had said that we would have to burn the house down to fix it. But we all know how that false accusation was drummed up. I said I wouldn’t settle without withdrawal of that accusation. My lawyer said they wouldn’t do so because it was admission of perjury. If I hadn’t been rapidly declining from cancer (which they also used to manipulate me) I would have pursued the matter on principle. So, this happens every day and women get away with it every day because lying and undermining is the female strategy of warfare. HOW DO YOU FIX IT? You fix this by restoring punishment for it with zero tolerance. You fix zero tolerance by punishing judges, prosecutors, and lawyers for tolerating it. And I am very close to preferring the British system of a three stage legal system (paralegal, lawyer, barrister, (plus specialized barristers) and specialized judges rather than this one size fits all american system. In general, the British system has survived far better than the american system in a number of ways.

    1. Our written “Transactional”, Natural Law” constitution is FAR better. Even if P-Law will take it further.
    2. Our supreme court is a far better solution.
    3. Our only failure was a process for returning undecidable propositions to the legislature, thereby preventing legislation from the bench.

    4. A territorial senate like the house of lords has been erroneously diluted in both systems.

    5. A Senate (house of lords) and Congress (parliament) like our roman and greek ancestors remains successful, but in both systems new houses should have been added for non-propertied (non-business owners), and another for women. In this way the classes could have continued trading instead of producing monopoly race to the bottom.

    6. A monarch and prime minister is a better system than president. Washington was wrong.

    7. The continental party system of proportional seating appears to have been more effective at producing coalitions(ideologies), and consistent policy, and the anglo system seems to have been better at producing classes(practicalities). So, in this sense

    8. My goal is to end the monopoly of majoritarianism, and instead restore the original intent of the parliament: a market for commons between the classes of those demonstrating competence and contributions the commons: monarchy, senate (territory), commons (business), and consumers (labor, women). This failure to understand the rise of the consumer class and to provide a house for consumers – especially women, who are the vast majority of dependents and consumers, and who consume the vast majority of common goods – is probably the primary failure of post medieval political thought.

    9. There is a good argument to be made that monarchy is without question the best form of government if mirrored by a militia and a constitution of natural law with universal standing – because there is no evidence that democratic governments are anywhere near as effective as monarchical. In western civilization – prior to napoleon – one ‘voted with one’s feet’ via negativa (right of exit). Something we do even more so today. The court provides individual defense via-negativa (right of juridical defense). And a parliament that must approve new law and new levies provides political defense via negativa (right of legislative dissent). With these three, we use POLITIES not parties or houses to compete. And this is the most effective market for political excellence, just as business is the most effective market for productive excellence.

    10. However, if by common consensus democracy (voting) we obtain better loyalty to one another and the state(territory, constitution, laws, culture) and polity, and we obtain a sense of belonging and harmony, then as long as the constitution prohibits even the mention of the irreciprocal (unconstitutional) then this is a trade off we can make. As such we can choose the following choices:
      a) Elected Representative Voters (vote initiatives up and down)[Works with multiple houses and creates a market]
      b) Direct Household Voting (vote initiatives up and down)[works with multiple houses]
      c) Direct Equalitarian Voting (vote initiatives up and down) [works with multiple houses]
      d) Direct Economic Voting (vote to fund initiatives, and what’s funded passes, and unfunded closes) [requires most informed public]
      e) Randomly Selected Jury (votes up and down – the original function of parliament) Parliament is an extension of the jury.

    That should provide you with a bit of understanding.

  • Humane Beef

    Jan 28, 2020, 12:09 PM I will keep a cow or two in the yard and feed it well. I will kill the cow by standard method. It will never know it’s going to be harmed or experience anything. They are frequently manipulated by vets and others. I will have a butcher come to the yard with his truck and clean the cow, returning me the usual amount of about say, for cattle 58-62% , hogs 74% and market lambs 54%., and for cattle close to half as hamburger. doing so requires sunlight and grass, and maybe some agricultural feed. This does not require chemistry and energy or other man-made substitutes that are costly in energy to produce. This is the healthiest method of eating available to man. If we buy and raise two young cows at a time, and keep a large freezer, they will have company and be happy the whole time. They are cows. DATA The average American eats 200 lbs a year. (I eat more than that) With an average market (live or on hoof) weight of 1,150 lbs and the average yield of 62.2%, the typical steer will produce a 715 lb. (dressed weight) carcass. The dressed beef (or carcass) will yield approximately 569 lbs. (further details below) of red meat and trim (take-home meat – which includes the average weight of 27 lbs of variety meat: liver, heart, tongue, tripe, sweetbreads, and brains) and 146 lbs of fat, bone and loss. This is roughly a yield of 80% from the dressed or hanging weight – this is for a VERY LEAN Beef. A High Quality, USDA Choice Beef will yield approximately 70% of the Hanging or Dressed Weight. The yield on the take-home meat weight from the live weight of the (VERY LEAN) steer is approximately 50%. Chuck – 209.5 lbs total, which is 29% of the dressed/hanging/carcass weight: Blade Roasts and Steaks 33.9 lbs. Ground Beef and Stew Meat 83.3 lbs. Arm Pot Roasts and Steaks 35.5 lbs. Cross Rib Pot Roast 25.4 lbs. Fat and Bones 31.4 lbs. Round – 155.8 lbs. total, which is 22% of the dressed/hanging/carcass weight: Top Round 34.6 lbs. Bottom Round 31.2 lbs. Tip 16.8 lbs. Rump 7.8 lbs. Ground Beef 33.4 lbs. Fat and Bones 32 lbs. Thin Cuts – 134.6 lbs. total, which is 19% of the dressed/hanging/carcass weight: Flank Steak 3.6 lbs. Pastrami Squares 2.9 lbs.

  • Question? Will People Rise Up? – We’ll “Rise” Them. But will you show?

    Jan 28, 2020, 3:31 PM

    —“Will people rise up before it’s too late?”—

    If you got a call today from me or someone like me, to show up in a certain town at a certain date would you go? Would you have gone five years ago? Would you go today? Will you go in 90 days? If the answer to that question is anything other than “I’ll show up” then you’re the f–king problem, so shut the f—k up. If the answer is “I’ll show up”, then we win. There is nothing in the world that can stop 100k. We are the largest army in the world. But only if hand-wringers show up. If you won’t show up then shut up.
