  • Regarding Gans’ Generative Anthropology

    September 18th, 2018 9:22 AM REGARDING GANS’ GENERATIVE ANTHROPOLOGY [S]omeone just asked, so for those that are interested in such things, Eric Gans’ Generative Anthropology, is compatible and non-contradictory with Propertarianism. It is however a description of potential (cooperation on policy) not one of limits (resolution of differences by law), and it is narrative (literary and analogical) not operational (descriptive and scientific). Gans is also from the French and Marxist Critical theory schools, which explains his use of literary rather than scientific device. My work, particularly my work on grammars, and my work using neural economy, provide an operational explanation for the emphasis on the consequences of language. But I place dramatically more emphasis on truth as a competitive evolutionary advantage, and tolerance beyond the kin group as a competitive evolutionary disadvantage. This is the opposite of his position. However, when I read him I do not see falsehood, only another attempt to justify a norm rather than to create an excellence using similar understanding of the function of information that he calls language.

    —“The greatest predictors of political belief are high openness/low conscientiousness (for liberals) and low openness/high conscientiousness (for conservatives.) That’s why the vast majority of artists, musicians, performers and people in creative domains in general are liberal. “— Joel Harvey

  • I Teach as By Sport Not by Lecture.

    September 18th, 2018 1:10 PM [T]here is a difference between contributors, commenters, followers, and lurkers – but it’s only in the degree of participation. Everybody learns. The difference between how I teach and the mainstream is that I create king of the hill games so that men feel comfortable playing the game of climbing to the top. I teach as by sport not by lecture.

  • Women Joyful and Men Noble

    September 18th, 2018 9:13 AM WOMEN JOYFUL AND MEN NOBLE
    by Megan K. Usui I imagine for most men that they love their women most, not when they are making them a sammie, although that’s nice and all but they love them most when they see their beauty and this is usually when a woman is in a state of joy. So provided the man has taken the noble measures of providing a frame for his woman (see my post from yesterday) that ensures his (and therefore her) stability, she can feel secure in this frame to be joyful. If we weren’t so worried about our men connecting with their nobility, thereby requiring all of these (unconscious) shit tests, we would relish in our expression of joy. Chicken or egg? Let’s not go there. Let’s just do our part and the rest will follow.

    —“Look at the veneration and mythic aspect of the founders and other heroes of American history. Some even have what we could call temples. Especially Washington, Jefferson, (maybe Franklin, though there seems to be something more human about how we remember him), Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Patton, JFK, maybe even Reagan, although I think the gleam is wearing off his spirit as we realize the fraud perpetrated by many who used the vehicle of his name. Whether we agree with them all or not, they’re figures in a sort of American pantheon, and to at least some segment of society or other, they all represent certain archetypal, ideal qualities.”– Eric Best

    Correct. 😉

    September 19th, 2018 8:47 AM Time = rate of change in state. As we age we more slowly change state. Not only because there is less low hanging fruit to learn, but that the cost of reorganization of our accumulated patterns and consequent thinking increases, and at the same time our physical ability to learn decreases.
