Propertarianism Is Falsifiable but Very Difficult to Falsify

The Overplayed Hand of The Holocaust
Sorry, but while it’s true, the argument was overplayed such that even the red cross disagrees with anywhere the supposed numbers. The gas appears to have been a fraud. Jews (and muslims) had beed deported en mass from Europe many times (and sometimes killed otherwise) – and despite revisionist history, not for entirely unjust reasons. And it increasingly appears that Germans did nothing more complex or insidious than fighting world communism by repeating past deportations, using the methods developed for relocations by the Bolsheviks in Russia, while fighting a war on two fronts and running out of money for funding relocation camps – and as a consequence, putting victims to work as slave labor, then starving them to death. Not that that it is forgivable, and that we shouldn’t prevent it from ever happening again, but it wasn’t novel, and it pales in comparison to the crimes of the communists and socialists. History hates propaganda. People act according to rational incentives. In the end those incentives comes out. And the consensus of any century easily inverted in the next, when the passions once driving the narrative are lost, and the dispassionate find wisdom in the investigation of past deceptions, frauds, and excuses. The globalist century is over. It was a failure whether communist or capitalist. And now that technology has equilibrated through the use of markets we return to a balance of powers, nation states, and markets – as in almost all of history. Fascism won. Nationalist State Capitalism in the Russia and Chinese model has been in deterministic process since 1992, when the Russians and the Chinese finally gave up on socialism, leaving a trail of destruction through the developing world. Propaganda has a half life. And it’s about the length of a human life. Like the winds of time, Historians do their job as clerks of intertemporal facts. The chaff is gradually removed, leaving the kernel of truth: war is a horrible thing and humans are horrible superpredators, and the fact that we get along at all is a miracle of our institutions.

Big Five Physical Regions (and Not)
–“Openness/Intellect did not have any significant correlation with the volume of any brain structures. Conscientiousness was associated with increased volume in the lateral prefrontal cortex, a region involved in planning and the voluntary control of behavior. Extraversion was associated with increased volume of medial orbitofrontal cortex, a region involved in processing reward information. Agreeableness was associated with increased volume in regions that process information about the intentions and mental states of other individuals. Neuroticism was associated with increased volume of brain regions associated with threat, punishment, and negative emotions.”— DeYoung, C. G.; Hirsh, J. B.; Shane, M. S.; Papademetris, X.; Rajeevan, N.; Gray, J. R. (2010). “Testing Predictions From Personality Neuroscience: Brain Structure and the Big Five”.

When You Criticize Propertarianism You”re Almost Certainly Wrong
(REALLY) Any criticism of Propertarianism (Natural Law consisting of Acquisitionism, Propertarianism, and Testimonialism) will require fictions, deceptions, and frauds – which I acknowledge are successful means of persuading humans ‘cheaply’. And every criticism I have heard, appears Postmodern (Truth is coherence within the socially constructed frame(paradigm) rather than decidable independent of frames (paradigms)). And my argument is that the west invented Truth coherent with reality and a social order also coherent with reality, and that this is the reason for our military, political, economic, scientific, and intellectual competitiveness. And that the aristocracy used this invention to profit from the continuous domestication of pre-human animals (men) such that the society produced agency and therefore made the aristocracy capable of increasing their numbers, such that they could continue to fight with their successful military strategy (combining technology, maneuver, and independent creative tactics. IT’S NOT COMPLICATED Look, it’s not complicated. Mathematics is a deflationary (limited) grammar that tests for constant positional relations, between anything expressible in constant relations. But because positional relations (ideals) have no limits until applied to real world phenomenon under intertemporal change (reals), they scale infinitely when discussing the model (ideals), if not when applying to reality (the reals). Any set of percievable properties can be expressed in some logic, and our language contains a surprisingly small set of constant relations to test ( just over a dozen), aside from the complexity that arises from the five senses and the relations (Relation (Preposition/Postposition) > Link (Conjunction > Copula ) ) for which english has a host of terms. So in this sense our language can express promises of weights and measures using those experiences, and operational grammar limits us to those which are independent weights and measures. the measure of Value is provide only by: demonstrated action. Either individual investment or reciprocal trade. Like a balance scale without something to balance (trade) all measures of value are arbitrary. So Acquisitionism, Propertarianism, and Testimonialism, with the tests of agency(limits) and reciprocity(scope) when stated in operational prose constitute a grammar of subjective value independent continuous constant relations between existence and actions and testimony, while filtering out any and all subjective values, normative values, institutional values, and fictions – making it very difficult to engage in fraud by obscurantism, loading, framing, and deceit. There is very little difference between mathematics and operational language (acquisitionism, propertarianism, and testimonialism) other than mathematics consists of one dimension of constant relations, and operational consists of many (a dozen or so plus sensory and relational weights and measure), and limits inconstant relations ( subjective, normative, traditional, institutional ) values (weights and measures) from the discourse for the simple reason that they are in fact *inconstant relations*. That is not to say that we can’t engage in all sorts of conversation that contains inconstant relations that may be relatively constant between members of a polity. It means that in matters of conflict, those differences remain open to analysis and criticism, and their differences perfectly, always, and everywhere decidable. The central problem of history is failing to separate the constant relations from the inconstant relations, because until we had international law, most juridical decisions were both local, and within local subjective(inconstant) weights and measure (values), and most legislation, regulation, and command imposed inconstant relations upon local polities. In my view this is not very complicated. But the purpose of via-negativa law (and our ability to create a strictly constructed uninterpretable constitution, or even white sharia, or another inquisition) is not the same as telling inspirational stories to the kiddies. Hence why those who rule use law, those who rally use fictions, and those who cooperate use trade. Seriously. Weights and Measures. It’s not complicated.

Rebuttals of A Theist
1) Law, particularly western empirical law of tort, under presumption of sovereignty and therefore demand for reciprocity existed before idealism (mathematics), criticism (socrates), justification (plato), and empiricism (Aristotle), and their concluding movement (Stoicism, Epicureanism, and Roman Law). (Despite Augustine’s attempt to combine jewish law’s justificationism using pilpul and critique, with the greek thinkers use of idealism, and abandoning the result of the greek experiment: roman law, empiricism, stoicism, epicureanism, and tolerance for local cult and custom. ) 1) —“Rebutting the claims of an existing creator?”— Means, motive, opportunity, evidence, method of argument. The motive is to create a lie using false threats and promises to provide the individual with immunity from the labor of reason, accept his position in life, and act obediently to priests, in exchange for monies (and in europe, lands). While at the same time ending the practice of literacy and preserving literacy only within the authoritarian system of deceits. 2) —“Or refuting the resurrection theory?”— Means, motive, opportunity, evidence, method of argument. Evidence is that this was all compiled from preexisting myths, and other than some otherwise indiscriminate fellow being crucified for agitating against the profiteering by jewish priests, the rest of the story is a fabrication, not the least of which was initiated by Saul of Tarsus. People love to buy drugs.
