  • “Are You Done Yet?”

    October 17th, 2018 3:08 PM [Y]ou don’t understand. Propertarianism is the most complete system of thought to date – more so than Marxism. It completes the Darwinian-Nietzchean (spencer, maxwell, mengerian, poincare) revolution. No I’m not kidding. That’s why you can’t grok it so easily. It addresses every aspect of human knowledge from what we call metaphysics through ethics, politics, and aesthetics. So, when you ask me “are you done yet?” I’m still “Getting close but do you understand what I’m doin’ here? I wouldn’t be necessary if it wasn’t for the second world war. We went off the rails. I’m putting us back on them. Really. It only took the majority of my adult life…

  • Markets of The Via-Negativa

    October 16th, 2018 1:44 PM MARKETS OF THE VIA-NEGATIVA [M]arkets don’t do much more than suppress the network of rents that exist wherever market competition does not. As always, markets are a via-negativa good. Just as law is a via-negativa good. Just as falsification is a via negativa good. We never know the truth, the good, the moral, the just, we only know their opposites. Why? Our knowledge is forever incomplete.

  • The Problem of Political Stability

    October 16th, 2018 12:33 PM THE PROBLEM OF POLITICAL STABILITY by Michael Churchill

    The left cannot function once its means are revealed. Its leaders understand that, hence the cultivation of Antifa as shock troops. Democracy may be in the process of phasing out as an optimal political solution, because it creates a monopoly, and one side cannot accept the other side’s victory if it’s a given that it is not one country but two enemy camps. Even Bolsonaro is a manifestation of that. So the interesting question is what will the political map look like in 20 years around the globe. A mix of right and left wing dictatorships? The problem with dictatorship is that it is not really stable if it’s imposed on half the population against their will. Thus it would seem to me something else would be more likely to come about.

  • Again: MBTI vs BIG5/6 vs Moral Foundations vs Gender

    Again: MBTI vs BIG5/6 vs Moral Foundations vs Gender

    October 16th, 2018 10:43 AM AGAIN: MBTI vs BIG5/6 vs MORAL FOUNDATIONS vs GENDER (from elsewhere) In other words, the principle difference between MBTI and Big 5 are (a) the weight it gives to trait expression, and (b) the principle difference in value is that with 100 Questions we can test your IQ within a half a standard deviation, because all components scale evenly, but we cannot test the rest of your personality traits with so few questions because they do NOT scale evenly. Moreover, MBTI is a WORKPLACE and social weighting of traits, while BIG5 is a THERAPEUTIC weighting of traits. These are differences in value rather than differences in measurement. I was not the first person to make this distinction, but I have written extensively on the fact that while MBTI is imprecise, it is the maximum complexity of a model that individuals can work with in the workplace. We can measure all sorts of trait expression, and even the big 5 FACTORS must be broken down into TRAITS in order to accommodate the difference in factor expression between the GENDERS. STATISTICAL DIFFERENCES: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156661592707264&set=a.10156479504747264&type=3&size=850%2C370 In this sense MBTI is a better judge of the GENDER biases inherent in cognitive and emotional biases because its fairly obvious that the gender distributions are inverted. Whereas this transparency was only visible in BIG5 after division from Factors into Trait Expressions – and that occurred fairly recently (post 2000), as psychology attempted to reform from a pseudoscience to a science when confronted with imaging, genetic, and pharmaceutical science.

  • The left HAS to be kleptocratic. They’re dysgenic.

    [H]onor and Decency are antithetical to the left. They mean ‘don’t steal’. The left HAS to be kleptocratic. They’re dysgenic.

  • Absolutism Is Nonsense. Zero Tolerance Is Not.

    ABSOLUTISM IS NONSENSE. ZERO TOLERANCE IS NOT. 1) We pursue what we can both undrestand and suits our interests. 2) Absolutism is easy to understand. It’s the children’s-blocks version of political problem solving. 3) Absolutism is easy to use when ‘backward’ or ‘at war’, but extremely error prone at competition and production. It is an extremely weak form of organization compared to markets. It depends on retaining the attention of the populace through constant manipulation. It is expensive. Hence absolute military, absolute law, market economy, limited charity is the optimum order. (India vs China. China has better demographics, is ethnically homogenous, and has the red army. India has none of the above.) 4) one can organize the vast network of productions in an polity by authority (fear), compensation (reward), or deceit (fear or promise). But we are no longer in a position where the information system can be monopolized and the population is ignorant. 5) The purpose of advancing markets (liberalism et all) is to provide those in power with the means of holding and expanding power cheaply and easily. In other words, one is naive to think he can capture attention and power without material incentives, and we are all victims of overestimating our deviation from the norm. 6) The optimum government is flexible (Roman) with Authoritarianism for War, Markets for growth, and Redistribution for Windfalls. 7) In other words: Money Scales Power. And the vast majority are always and everywhere motivated by (a) access to mates, (b) food and food prices (now energy as well), (c) change in economic condition (d) release from perceived oppression (taxation, competition, conquest). POWER REQUIRES WEALTH REQUIRES MARKET ORDER REQUIRES RULE OF LAW – which is what Putin has had to learn. OUR RULE OF LAW IS SIMPLY TOO TOLERANT. (Ergo – stop stroking your dicks, and masturbating to manga-fantasies of absolutism.)
