  • The Science of Why People Are NPCs or PCs.

    October 18th, 2018 10:43 AM THE SCIENCE OF WHY PEOPLE ARE NPCs OR PCs. @Dylan Thomas (TrueDilTom) put out a wonderful podcast on the NPC meme (before it went viral). But most importantly, inside that discussion he reminds us that the origin of the thought is the research showing that the vast majority of people do not rely on language to ‘calculate’ with their internal voice. Language is a form of calculation consisting of categories, religions and values, and with language we can produce frames of different scales of coherence using internal consistency, external correspondence, and existential possibility. Instead they are driven entirely by experience and intuition – they were insufficiently trained, such that they cannot even use LANGUAGE for measurement of their thoughts: that’s before we get to Reason, Logic, Calculation, and Computation. In this sense, people really are NPC’s who are somewhat capable of speech to express intuitive reactions, but lack the agency to calculate with language and therefore speak in argument and reason. This is why I say that there is a vast difference between declaring people HUMAN just because they can speak, instead of declaring people HUMAN because they have AGENCY. Speech is an insufficient test of sufficient agency to enter into a contract, for the same reason that children lack sufficient agency to enter into contract. You can only cooperate with whom you can cooperate, and you cannot enter into contract with people who lack agency. They are not yet domesticated (fully human). So it is one thing to have your human potential BLOCKED (addiction to supernatural religions); and another lack the TRAINING to transition from primate to human; and another to seek to circumvent the LABOR of exercising agency; and another to possess agency because you have the ability, training, and WILL to possess and therefore demonstrate agency. (This paragraph was important, so read it again.) We cannot cooperate with those who cannot cooperate because cooperation on means and ends that require calculation require members of the contract be able to calculate. THEY CAN’T. Ergo we can’t. Therefore Revolt, Separate, Prosper, Speciate.

  • South American Opportunity for Political Advancement

    October 18th, 2018 7:37 PM SOUTH AMERICAN OPPORTUNITY FOR POLITICAL ADVANCEMENT by Michael Churchill [L]atin America is a checkerboard with three types of squares: 1) Western civilization (Chile, parts of Argentina, parts of Brazil, nearly all of Costa Rica, parts of Colombia, Panama, half of downtown Lima, parts of Mexico; 2) Primitive civilizations that WORK (rural Peru and Ecuador for instance, Actually the rural parts of much of Latin America); 3) Chaos (Much of Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Rio favelas, Buenos Aires slums, Venezuela). There are all sorts of interesting possibilities for political advancement in Latin America. The mere fact that Bolsonaro EXISTS tells you it’s not just going to be a repeat of idiocy ad infinitum.

  • Iberoamerican: A Hard Question of Identity that Boils Down to Genetic Load

    October 18th, 2018 7:09 PM A HARD QUESTION OF IDENTITY THAT BOILS DOWN TO GENETIC LOAD

    —“Curt, I want to ask you, as an Iberoamerican, Hispanic, or Latino American, (whatever you want to call us), What is the propertarian viewpoint of the Spanish-Portuguese conquest of Americas? Taking into cosideratión the massive and fast mixing of the “races” (Amerindians, Europeans, and Black Africans). Our countries are among the most Unequal in the world, competing with the south of Africa for IQ disparity. Are we part of the western civilization, or just some weird bastardization of it?”— A Facebook Friend (I’ll leave this one anonymous)

    (WARNING: This is an unpleasant assessment of human capital – measurements of this kind are not ‘kind’ to our emotions. But measurements can be made.) DEMOGRAPHICALLY, IT’S NOT COMPLICATED The iberian conquest of south american by european people was a near genocide, and certainly a civilization-cide, but the result was in fact, an unequal distribution of net improved human capital. You (South Americans) are still (presently) a ruling IE Population (Caste) like the IE’s in India vs the Dravidians. You are following the same course of development as they did in India. Like India, the native population is too large for you to genetically carry. Either you will politically interfere with their breeding rates, or continue to form a caste system as you do now, or separate as southern brazilians want to, or you will disappear as did the IE’s of india. There are no IE’s left in India. Only variations of the 70-30 to 30-70 mixture. in that sense, indians evolved into a separate civilization and a separate sub-race. You (South Americans) are still Western (Christian, Aristotelian, Rule of Law, European) due to genetic traits, institutions, and traditions, but Western Civilization includes the spectrum of peoples: south american (hispanic-amerindian-african), vs north american (european, african, hispanic, and now Asian), vs southern european (old european/balkan), vs northern european (newer european/germanic/scandinavian) , vs slavic (newest european), vs Russian/Slavic (pure european), vs FInnic (Northeastern European). And the three major christian religions, plus the secular christian religions we call variations of social democracy. At present, yes, south america is part of western civilization although we are seeing quite a bit of literature stating it is it’s own civilization. A trend which will continue once the current experiment with democracy has completed (ended). In 1000 years, will that be the case? In as little as 100? The genetic load of the native population is far too high. Just as the genetic load of the USA is now too high. and if you follow me you will recall that decline in economic and political potential is non-linear and accelerates rapidly below 97( which is 1/2 std deviation from those who can learn by reading instructions and fixing machines). The future of South America is that of India and its challenges, not China and its advantages. The choice of what happens to the european minority in the higher distributions is something you must come to terms with. As you know, genetic load determines nearly everything. Cheers.

  • The Amount of Time the Left Thinks About Inequality

    October 18th, 2018 6:43 PM [T]he problem is that we (With Agency) simply cannot imagine the amount of time the left (lacking agency) thinks about inequality or status or being left behind. We just can’t imagine the obsession that they find in every moment. Their frame, constantly reinforced by some sort of rejection or other signal, or interpretation of some event as ‘being left out, or left behind, or less, or not rewarded for their contributions.’ They can’t imagine how we can be so rational (they assume we have their psychological problems) but we can’t imagine how obsessed they are with their inability to obtain from others what they could obtain from parents by childish display.

  • To Elders of The Black Sun 3 – Aristocracy and Law

    October 17th, 2018 9:54 AM TO ELDERS OF THE BLACK SUN 3 – ARISTOCRACY AND LAW 1) All religions are substitutes for the Initiatic Brotherhood of Warriors. There is no bond as strong – even kin. 2) The right is organized like christian denominations, as a class hierarchy with most literal at the bottom and most allegorical at the top. 3) Aristocratic orders (law) are always and everywhere imposed by Force (violence), and consist of 3.1) Law stated as myth 3.2) Law stated as process 3.3) Law stated as Law. 4) Religion is the cheapest means of TEACHING the Law by indoctrination (repetition). This is why ARISTOCRACY conquerors with violence, and adopts Religions and Priesthood to Rule (morally) and retains Law to Rule (commercially), and retains Violence to Rule (militarily). 5) All religious content contains (a) group evolutionary strategy (method of cultural warfare), (b) normative law, and (c) constitutional law (limitations on the people and the ruler). 6) The western Myth during our ascent was Homer (The Tragedy of Achilles) (Heroic Aristocracy). The semites adopted this and reversed it as the Tragedy of Jesus (victim as hero). Our ascent in the late medieval world was due to the restoration of Aristotle (Power over nature) and restoration of commerce (HRE/Hansa Trade), and rapid expansion (colonialism by sail). The Semites retaliated with The Tragedy of Labor (victim as hero), followed by the revolt against Darwin (The Anti-Nazi Cult – victim as hero). What narrative will compete with them?

  • Curt: Can a Sane Person Have Faith?

    October 17th, 2018 CURT: CAN A SANE PERSON HAVE FAITH?

    —“Curt, is it possible for a man to believe in Christian doctrine without being a borderline schizophrenic or a closet atheist with personal issues? Can a sane man of at least average intelligence believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God in good faith?”— Scott Cameron

    [W]ell, this confuses Sanity with Agency. Can a sane man do so? Well, evidence that sane and insane people do so. The question is can a man possessed of Agency do so? I mean, for all intents and purposes I ‘believe’ in the characters of history although they are constructed through recursive narrative improvement into myths. That does not stop me, but helps me refer to them (imitate them) in disposition, frame of mind, and method of problem solving. The question is, whether you are imitating a history, a myth, or an occult version of whatever it is, and the assumptions you have about the universe when you imitate each of those criteria. Ergo: are you Relying on Knowledge (techne/history), Seeking Wisdom (general rules), or Seeking false comfort (falsehoods)? Christians tend to make pretty good people – a dumb christian is still a lot better than just about anything else because of its optimism (exhaustive forgiveness) which is the optimum group evolutionary strategy. I’ll refer you to this post (Oath): https://propertarianinstitute.com/2017/11/12/the-oath-of-transcendent-man-a-pagan-a-christian-an-aryan-a-warrior-a-man-transcendent/ And this paragraph:

    —“I am a christian if I have adopted the teaching of christianity: 1) the eradication of hatred from the human heart. 2) the extension of kinship love to non-kin. 3) the extension of exhaustive forgiveness before punishment, enserfment, enslavement, death, or war.”—

    This is the element of ‘faith’ in christianity. And it turns out to be correct: exhausting opportunities for cooperation before retaliating is the optimum cooperative strategy – there is none better. Nearly all humans (and animals) will cooperate given enough time to learn its value. Faith, in all its forms, is merely a way to circumvent problem solving when the neural (Bayesian) accounting (calculation) is beyond our capacity to reason. So faith allows us to ignore our intuitions and frustrations and calmly continue our efforts, with some semblance of piece of mind (confidence) in the outcomes. The rest of christianity is just nonsense. The act of ‘praying to’ (role playing with) a super-parent (fictional character) that you cannot lie to (omniscience) simply works by taking advantage of our innate abilities to self program our intuitions (pre rational searching). Role playing with Gods (eternal, magical), Demigods (immortal), heroes (simple superiors), and Ancestors and parents (our own heroes as children), works for the same reason talking to priests, shrinks, and friends works: if we can train ourselves not to lie to ourselves the role playing will ‘work’. We consist of a physical body, a set of physical (cognitive) biases, a set of intuitions that are limited by those biases, and our ability to reason, and speak. Speech allows us to program our intuition and therefore compete with our genetic biases that evolved under primitive circumstances of the pack and tribe. THere is nothing terribly magical about this process. Nor need there be. The stoics learned how to do it without superstition. The buddhists did not. There is no reason we cannot ‘train ourselves’ in stoicism on the one hand, and role playing with heroes, demigods, and gods on the other, while not understanding what it is that we do. It is far better than allowing ourselves to be constantly manipulated by priests, politicians, public intellectuals, and marketers of all kinds. Fairy tales -> Myths and Legends -> Historical Biographies -> Histories -> Legal Histories + Economic Histories + Technological Histories -> The Sciences -> Mathematics.I talk to my god every day. I largely do what he informs me. I do not however mistake his existence for his function. The simpleton cannot do such a thing. But he can worship nature, ancestors, and not be taught lies.

  • To Elders of The Black Sun 3 : Evola

    October 17th, 2018 9:49 AM TO ELDERS OF THE BLACK SUN 3 : EVOLA [E]vola, like Nietzsche was trying to create a new mythos of criticism. The problem is, that all cults are likewise, cultural warfare against something (others), but provide a positive corpus. The reason we have not solidified an alternative is the lack of a positive corpus (mythos).
