  • Israel vs Palestine? Easy choice.

    What’s not complex is (a) yes they are conquering an ancestral homeland that the European’s ancestors displaced them from for their resistance movement against Roman law. that was the real reason. Roman law. (b) The Israelites are a superior people, with an advanced civilization, displacing an inferior people. (c) Islam has been at war with the rest of the world for 1400 years and has destroyed every great civilization of the ancient world it could reach. (d) We could not let communism spread to the middle east and into the oil regions during the cold war and so Israel functioned as our primary military base in the region – it would have undermined our ability to ‘bribe’ the rest of the world by access to our markets. (e) we are still stuck with a vast number of primitive backward people who are a threat to mankind. So no, it’s not a problem of equals. It’s a problem of paying various costs like Israeli expansion and warfare while we wait to see if the Muslims can reform or if we will have to join China and Now India to contain Islam as we contained communism, should have contained Christianity, judaism, and islam in the past. (f) the author is relying on Jewish relativism which is the source of the problem in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – no man doesn’t have intrinsic value. We are either helping one another evolve, or causing one another to devolve, and the Abrahamic faiths, their method of moral sophistry, supernaturalism, and pseudoscience, culminating in the Muslim world has been a cancer for mankind for 1400 years. So no. It’s not complex. It’s just an unpopular purely empirical truth.

    Two Sexes with Competing Strategies The Genders differ in their competition, conflict and warfare strategy.

    Males: Demonstrated Advantage, hierarchy, maintaining group cohesion (inequality) Truth under threat of violence in the service of male solidarity in the preservation of the Tribe and Territory is the competitive strategy of males. Males fight for position in the hierarchy and end conflict with increases in loyalty to one another. — vs — Females: Intrinsic Advantage, conformity, maintaining group cohesion under threat of reputation destruction in the service of female solidarity independent of Tribe and Territory is the competitive strategy of females. Females fight to destroy or kill without ending.Adaptive Velocity Given Male and Female Differences in Reproductive Strategy ( … ) Mankind evolved into a superpredator. By Male political and physical (fast) and female social and informational (slow) superpredation. Producing a spectrum of moral biases that constitute the individual’s demand for terms of cooperationCooperation is Disproportionately Rewarding Such That Survival Is Dependent Upon it.Man Competes at Scale There are many categories of markets within this spectrum: … 1 – Associative, Social, Sexual, Cooperative, Economic, Informational, Political, and Military  Markets Man Organizes Cooperation at Scale Obvious fact Man organizes. Man organizes to cooperate with those of common interests, and compete against those with competing common interests. … 1 – Family, … 2 – Friends, Acquaintances … 3 – Interest Groups, Associations, Societies, Religions … 4 – Associates, Partners, Employers, Vendors … 5 – Intellectual, Media, Bureaucratic, Political Allies … 6 – Economic Military and Strategic Alliances

    Man Coerces into Organization
    There are only three methods of human coercion: … 1 – Physical: Force<->Defense (military-political)
    … 2 – Reciprocal: Trade <-> Boycott (economic).
    … 3 – Verbal: Inclusion <-> Exclusion (social)
    Man Develops a Limited Number of Institutions of Coercive Organization … 1 – Physical: Force<->Defense (military-political) evolves into the State favoring the upper classes
    … 2 – Reciprocal: Trade <-> Boycott (economic). Evolves into Rule of Law (or its absence) favoring the middle classes
    … 3 – Verbal: Inclusion <-> Exclusion (social) evolves into Religion, Mythology, Philosophy, or Ideology favoring the underclasses
    Man Develops a Sequence of Those Institutions of Coercion, of declining influence. The order in which a group develops these institutions anchors the civilization on the first, less so the second, and most civilizations are weak or fail at the third.
    … 1 – Military > Law > State > Religion Fail (Europe) – Rapid evolution, Expansion, Assimilation failure … 2 – Military > State > Law > Religion Fail (no example, Europe trying?) … 3 – Military > State > Religion > Law Fail (China) – Expansion, and Assimilation but Slow growth and Stagnation … 4 – Military > Religion > Weak State > Law Fail (India) – Stagnation/Vulnerability … 5 – Military > Religion > State Fail > Law Fail (Islam) – Producing Diaspora  and Decline … 6 – Fail Military > Religion > Law Fail (asymmetric) > State Fail (Judaism) – Diasporic (fail at military and a people will always fail) … 7 – Fail Military > Fail Religion > Fail State > Fail Law (Gypsies) – Diasporic
    Man’s institutions of coercion are either Empirical (by case) or Practical (by general rule), or Ideal (By universal application).
    … 1. The Issue of State and Bureaucratic Command (General Rule) is Practical and Political (all)
    … 2. The Judicial and Commercial Resolution of Disputes by Law(Case by Case) is Empirical (parties) … 3. The Religious and Social Supernatural Demands (Universals) are Ideal and often Utopian. (individuals)
    Man has a limited number of methods of verbal coercion:
    … 1 – Physical: Threat of force versus deprivation of defense
    … 2 – Material: Exchange of Truthful, Operational, Reciprocally Beneficial Gains free of a negative externality vs Lost Opportunity for Gain.
    … 3 – Hypothetical: Promise or Pleading (arguing) for inclusion versus threatening exclusion.
    Man has a limited number of methods of verbal ‘seductions’ to employ to advance the hypothetical:
    In simple terms, there are only so many methods of conducting social construction of falsehoods (fictionalisms), because only so many human faculties to ‘overload’:
    … 1 – The Emotional: psychologizing -> moralizing -> ideology to overload: moral intuition and fear of ostraciztion.
    … 2 – The Physical:  magic->supernormal->pseudoscience to overload: ignorance and evidence.
    … 3 – The Verbal: sophistry->idealism->rational_philosophy to overload: reason and logic … 4 – The Imaginary: occult->supernatural->theology to overload: intuition and imagination.
    As such Man Produces Verbal, Informational, Methods of Cultural Production, Distribution, and Persistence.
    The result was each civilization developed:
    … (a) A Group Competitive Strategy
    … (b) A Metaphysical Paradigm of Dimensions that Reflect or Diverge from the Laws of the Universe … (c) A Mythology to communicate that metaphysical paradigm and the competitive strategy it contains by suggestion … (d) An Argumentative methodology – a method of ‘argument’ or persuasion (“A Grammar: paradigm, vocabulary, logic”)
    … (e) A wisdom literature consisting of justifications for that strategy, mythology, institutions, methodology.
    … (f) One or more institutions of:
    … … i – Religion (universal moral intuition),
    … … ii – Education (general explanations),
    … … iii – Training (particular occupation),
    … … iv – Law (Rules), and
    … … v – State (Enforcement) Necessary to:
    … (a) intergenerationally transfer the group’s strategy
    … (b) justify its institutions of organization,
    … (c) using the ‘grammar’ (paradigms, vocabulary, logic) necessary to propagate it:

    … … ii – Pseudoscience (physical, material),
    … … iii – Philosophy (Verbal, Rational), or
    … … iv – Ideology (Emotional, Moral),
    … … v – Theology (imaginary).  History -> Literature -> Mythology -> Theology <- Philosophy <- Law <- Science <- Logic
    Civilizational Differences in Fictionalisms:
    … 1. Anglo-European empiricism, science, and law (Scientific Philosophy) … 2. Aristotelian-Epicurean natural philosophy (Natural Philosophy) … 3. Continental Rationalism and (literary philosophy)
    … 4. Platonism Pseudoscientific idealism and sophistry as ‘philosophy’ (Literary Philosophy) … 5. Chinese Confucian “reasonable’ wisdom literature
    … 6. Buddhism pseudoscientific -> occult wisdom literature … 7. Hindu Mythological wisdom literature … 8. Abrahamism v1 (Judaism Christianity Islamv1, v2 , v3 (wahabi) )  –  Conflation of Wisdom with Law, Mythology with History, Supernatural with Natural, as ‘theology’. … 9. Abrahamism v2 (marxism, neo marxism-postmodernism, feminism-pc-woke-ism) – Pseudoscience and sophistry to deny the formal, physical, behavioral, and evolutionary laws of the universe – blaming the discoverers of those laws as if they were the creators of those laws. Where those laws of nature are not kind whatsoever but force constant adaptation.
    The Evolution of Abrahamic (Female) Persuasion, Argument:
    … Abrahamic Religion -> Theology(Pseudo-law) -> Pilpul (sophistry) -> Critique (undermining) -> Social Construction(false promise)

    … … … … … … … Marxism -> Neo-Marxism -> Feminism -> Pomo -> PC/Woke Secular Pseudoscientific Revolt.
    Contrasting the Abrahamic (South West Eurasian) vs European Methods of Argument
    The Abrahamic method of argument is the social construction of non-correspondence with the laws of the universe by:
    … 0. Supernaturalism(vs Realism), Idealism (vs naturalism), Consent (vs Reciprocity)
    … 1. Consensus … 2. Dialectic (negotiation),
    … 3. Justification (excuse-making),
    … 4. Pilpul (sophistry), and
    … 5. Critique (undermining), and
    … 6. Heaping-undue-praise (overloading). … 7. Evading warranty and liability (unaccountability) Because of the lack of necessity of producing commons – where commons cannot be privatized or consumed. The Abrahamic civilizations (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) fail to produce commons and instaead ride on the host people or their upper classes.
    Instead of the European method of:
    … 0. Realism, Naturalism, and Reciprocity
    … 1. Truth (Consistency and correspondence with the laws of the universe)  – vs Consensus … 2. Adversarial competition (falsification) – vs Dialectical Negotiation
    … 3. Tests of Reciprocity (falsification) – vs Justification
    … 4. Incentives, evidence, and testimony (falsification) vs Pilpul
    … 5. Facts and Logic of Incentives, and falsification (vs critique and undermining)
    … 6. Limiting ourselves to the facts, evidence, incentives, context (vs overloading)
    … 7. Under warranty and liability by perjury. (vs evading of warranty and liability). Because of the necessity and utility of producing commons that cannot be privatized or consumed. Europeans compete by the production of commons, and free riding is suppressed.
    In the Jewish Religion, they use both mythology and a legal code. Jews adjudicated with priests. Continental Europe adjudicated with the church priests as much or more than the law. The French invented continental law because it could not trust the corrupt judiciary, and chose a via-positiva law. Anglo and Scandinavian Europe adjudicated with the law among freemen. In the common law tradition, we have only tort and command of the monarchy, nobility, manor.  And we had manor law, common law, and state law for the classes with tort remaining consistent across them.  English jurists were reasonably trustworthy.  So today Jews and the French use ‘intellectually made law’ and the anglosphere uses empirically discovered law and legislation that does not conflict with its foundations.  So the Abrahamic (Jewish) method affected the continent from south to north in a clade, with low trust south under the corruption of the church longer and the high trust north under it for less time and with more competing institutions.
    Empiricism (Rule of Law) does not tell us what to do only what we may not do. This was suitable for the commercial British, but intolerable for the continent – who rebelled against it in a search for a secular equivalent to the bible.
    Rousseau, Kant, and Hegel did not adopt the empirical revolution but sought a secular philosophical replacement for the Christian conflation of faculties instead of the empirical divergence of faculties. This tradition continues which is why the continental program is still dead in the water.
    Rousseau, Kant, Hegel, Marx, and the long line of neo-Marxists postmodernists anti-male feminists, and present pc-woke are all relying on unempirical (counter-empirical) empty verbalism to construct sophisticated falsehoods by a process of storytelling(suspension of disbelief) and suggestion (evading evidence and criticism) by baiting into the hazard with false promises of freedom from the four laws of the universe: the logical, physical, behavioral, and evolutionary.
    So dialectic is just Abrahamic pilpul (sophistry). Logic of inference tests only internal consistency, not categorical, operational, rational, reciprocal consistency. Logic is either constructed from the first principles of the laws of the universe or it is just sophistry. In other words, pseudoscientific philosophy has replaced occult theology but the purpose of both methods of fictionalism is the social construction of deceit by overloading and suggestion of minds lacking defense against such sophisticated deceits.
    And there is no difference between the supernatural false promises of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and the supernormal false promises of marxism, neo-marxism-feminism-postmodernism, and pc=woke anti-whiteness. They are two generations of socially constructed fictionalisms of deceit in two generations of revolt against the Indo-European and European incremental discovery adaptation to and application of the laws of the universe in order to rally the backward underclasses against the evolutionary leap provided by the Indo European upper classes.
    Yes, marxism-pomo-pc-woke is a revolt against the Darwinian explanation for the success of western civilization – the extraordinary rate of adaptation that has helped us drag ourselves and mankind out of ignorance, superstition, hard labor, poverty, starvation, disease, suffering and early death at the cost of our alienation as the division of labor increases and our individual relevance vanishes into thin air.
    Which is really the point of it all.
    Dialectic = Sophistry = Pilpul = Philosophy = justified not evidentiary and falsified – absence of evidence.
    Science = Testimony = categorically, logically, operationally, rationally, reciprocally consistent, with stated limits, full accounting within them, warrantied and liable for that testimony.
    Simple version: Dialectic = justificationary pilpul(sophistry) for the purpose of social construction. The fact that it is rational and supernormal sophistry rather than theological and supernatural sophistry is merely a change in style, but not method or substance. It’s a great lie for ignorant suckers. Nothing more.

    Dialectic = Sophistry = Pilpul = Philosophy = justified not evidentiary and falsified – absence of evidence.
    Science = Testimony = categorically, logically, operationally, rationally, reciprocally consistent, with stated limits, full accounting within them, warrantied and liable for that testimony.
    Simple version: Dialectic = justificationary pilpul(sophistry) for the purpose of social construction. The fact that it is rational and supernormal sophistry rather than theological and supernatural sophistry is merely a change in style, but not method or substance. It’s a great lie for ignorant suckers. Nothing more.

    WOKENESS(SUPERNORMAL) VS CHRISTIANITY (SUPERNATURAL)

    Majority religions teach signaling non-aggression since this is the principle method by which we increase trust – especially among low trust peoples. It’s also the principle direction of human self domestication.

    In this sense the woke priestesses inverted non-aggression into aggression just as islam inverted christian non aggression into aggression…. by undermining

    But we haven’t constrained female aggression by undermining.

    It’s clear Christianity became dominant the same way wokeness does. Demand tolerance for your belief system until you gain sufficient numbers at which point you become intolerant of the other belief systems.

    There was a supernatural being behind Christianity ( the Christ) . What does “wokeness” have ?

    Given:

    1. Supernatural (Occult) with after-life reward
      … A messenger is required for an occult false promise

    -versus-

    1. Supernormal (Pseudoscientific) with after-revolution reward.
      … No ‘messenger’ required for a pseudoscientific false promise.

    To say that there is one set of laws of the universe is simply obvious. To say that gods are emergent is simply obvious. To say that they are emergent from the minds of any conscious social hierarchical creatures is obvious. To say that they must converge over time is uncertain.

    There is no battle between good and evil, but between great men and nature – a nature constructed of god’s laws – where the only reward is our transcendence into godhood by their mastery, domestication, and transformation for our use.

    The religions of the middle east – all religions of the south eurasians – appear to be submissive counter-revolutions against the indo-europeans that had conquered the old world. They took largely from egypt – the only substantive surviving pre-collapse civilization.

    Signaling non aggression is the first state of the female method of seduction. But we haven’t constrained female aggression by undermining.

    Worse, Islam is not a religion like Stoicism, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism. Islam is an ideology, like Judaism, Communism, and Fascism

  • A society needs to expend resources on providing education in group strategy, mo

    A society needs to expend resources on providing education in group strategy, moral mythology, wisdom literature, logic of arguing it, ritual, oath, festival to provide mindfulness. We spent lost on education(skill) but not mindfulness(discipline): religion.

    Some people need religion as a framework for associations, some need only friends and family,and some need a sequence of allies on their life’s mission and some have the agency to compete at great scale by individual fortitude. It’s just your neural economy at work. Nothing else.

    “Some, some, some, some = Vast majority, significant minority, small minority, almost no one.”

    FWIW “almost no one” is the permanent .1%. Look at the families that have been wealthy for eight hundred years – there are plenty of them. Very selective marriage, very selective inheritance, very selective in all aspects of life.

    The people who are dependent upon others for SOCIAL insurance, security, information, validation, and status because they cannot compete in ECONOMIC POLITICAL & MILITARY markets need a means of mindfulness. Alienation increases with the division of knowledge labor and hierarchy.

    Mindfulness is necessary whether personal, interpersonal, social, economic, or political. In the sense that religion provides one or more of those demands for mindfulness, we merely need a true and evolution rather than false and regressive or devolutionary religion.

    Given the individual’s ability to perceive, learn, calculate choices with the brain, emotional fortitude (or lack of it), relationships, knowledge, resources at his disposal, what external ‘confirmation’ does he need?

    We’re all just bots. Some of us have better memory, CPUs and software and some less. You either have agency in yourself or dependency on others. If you are empathic, not bright, need opinion, information, confirmation, and to share calculation with others you’ll need religion.

    God is an analogy – a character serving as an anthropomorphic and therefore simplistic system of imitative, sympathetic, and empathic pre-rational means of decidability within a group class sex and age survival strategy. God = Laws of the universe. Science=testifying with them.

    Science=Testimony. Testimony requires identity, consistency, operational constructability from first principles, correspondence, rational choice, reciprocity, adversarial parsimony, limits, completeness, and warrantability. Since I know those things I can do that. That’s science.

    The LDS and Amish reproductive arguments are true but constitute are a repetition of the same fallacy of the libertarians: they require a host state or empire to provide the (masculine political) commons that their (feminine familial) social order cannot.

    INCREASE IN COST:
    Religion -> Intuition
    Philosophy -> Reason
    Testimony -> Evidence
    Science and Law -> Decidability
    First Principles -> Causality

  • the central problem of the age is our failure to civilize female antisocial behavior

    Tim Beckley@Zrflk @curtd I think you’ve nailed it again with your recent framing of the central problem of the age as our failure to civilize female antisocial behavior as we have male antisocial behavior. It draws attention to the huge payments that men have already made to the project of civilization and implicitly demands reciprocity. But it’s also really evocative and compelling. Almost anyone who’s seen both men and women behaving badly in a personal context can draw on those experiences to make subtle distinctions between the patterns of behavior observed, to consider the cognitive biases that might influence those patterns, and to imagine how those distinct patterns might manifest themselves in the larger social context. To riff off this framing, I’d suggest that there’s a flip side to the problem you address. Just as we’ve failed to give a full accounting of the negative tendencies and effects of female cognitive bias and to adapt our institutions accordingly, we’ve not given a full accounting of its positive tendencies and contributions, both to general social and personal well-being and functioning, and to Western European uniqueness. Predictably, we came to explain ourselves in scientific terms first, and we’re only turning now to our women as the focus of inquiry. In this sense our women intuit correctly- “the future is female.” THEY are the problem of the age. You’ve named sovereignty, natural law, markets, and truth telling as the fundamental components of the Western group evolutionary strategy, but how have our women adapted to the rapidly changing conditions created by this strategy, and how has it in turn accommodated them? One answer is obvious. The achievement gulf between the West and the rest in the domain of the Arts is as enormous as it is in the Sciences. Beauty is as instrumental to our success as Truth. We fail today largely because we’ve not recognized their interdependence in the biocultural ecosystems we’ve constructed. We prohibit lying because we know that we rely on truth for our success. The ugliness of the Jewish substitute for art that we’ve imported is every bit as criminal because it subverts the mental states that foster resilience in our women. So what else is required for them to “woman up, shut up, and show up,” and what are the other criminal behaviors that diminish their ability to do so? As inconvenient as it may be, we don’t move forward as a people without our women. And we demonstrate that we pay attention and truly know them if in the process of formalizing our demands of them we anticipate and formalize the unmet demands that they’ll surely have of us. Our competition lies to, hates, and exploits them, and they know it. Fifteen years of fieldwork confirms in my mind that this won’t be a hard sell. They are desperate to be liberated from another dreary, stupefying Abrahamic religion, and for our part, there can be no greater reward than our women themselves, liberated from the hands of our enemies.
