–“Q: Are democracy and capitalism the same thing in the culture of the United States?”–
This question is a framing generated by the left’s attempt to undermining western civilization.
Democracy: a means of selecting priorities in the production of commons given the scarcity of resources and the endless demand for returns.
Republic: Representative democracy with Executive, Legislative, and Judicial division of labor.
Capitalism: a bias to the private ownership and management of production of production distribution and trade of goods, services, and information, given the natural tendencies of government organizations to produce negative returns, maximize rents, maximize corruption, minimize benefits to the people, fail at core mission, be unaccountable for doing so.
Socialism: Globalist movement for the centralization of production, distribution, and trade in the state, and pursuit of world domination by this economic model.
Democratic Socialism: a bias to the state ownership and management of resources, production distribution, and trade. (France) and maximization of distribution of benefits to citizens.
Mixed Economy: State an Private Partnership in strategic industries, private management of non-strategic industries.
Fascism: Ethnocentric, Mixed Economy, Maximizing State-Private partnerships in strategic industries, private management of non-strategic industries.
UNDERSTANDING THE USA
(a) The USA is not a country, it is a federation of states (like europe is trying and failing to create). The USA uses the British form of government, but is modeled after the holy roman empire o the german people, that only fell after napoleon’s conquest after having existed for a thousand years: a loose federation of many micro states.
(b) The USA is not a democracy. it is a Republic under rule of law – meaning LIMITED power granted to the executive, legislature and courts, by the people to act on their behalf. A republic is intended to use representatives with demonstrated evidence of skills necessary to make political economic and military decisions. (We no longer do that.)
(c) The constitution is not a living document. It is a statement of natural law, (reciprocity) and amendments, legislation, and findings of the court (case law) are transactions that modify that law. It’s an accounting system in law.
(d) The law is not open to reinterpretation or judicial discretion – the court interprets the text (textualism) as by original meaning (originalism) so that the transactions against the constitution are performed only by the legislature. (Thanks to Saint Judge Antonin Scalia.)
(d) The purpose of limiting the court to those measurements is to demanding that all changes pass thru the public debate through the legislature and that no ‘specialist, or ‘authority’ exists other than survival of adversarial competition in the legislature on behalf of the people who voted for the representatives.
(e) Rule of law does not mean rule by law. Rule of law by natural law means that the law is sovereign and every individual sovereign under it. Rule by law means the laws of the universe (natural law), and the people are not sovereignty – but the legislature is. America is the only country where the law is sovereign. Every other country now has parliamentary sovereignty. And rule of law by natural law is the only method of maintaining human adaptation to changes in circumstances (scientific government).
(f) Some form of Democracy is necessary under rule of law – because there is no authority other than the law, and therefore only the people can decide, only as a jury (congress) and only after adversarial competition (argument, and voting)
(g) Every form of Democracy functions as market. Multiple house government functions as a market between states, and classes. (We Broke that by direct election of the senate).
Markets under rule of law will produce moral consumer capitalism. Markets under rule by law will not. Markets under arbitrary rule will produce black markets. Attempting to circumvent markets will produce black markets, corruption, disincentives, starvation, and decline.
So the capitalism socialism dichotomy is a marxist deceit creating a false dichotomy. All economies are mixed economies because states are the investors of last resort and insurers of last resort.
States START capital intensive industries because they are too high risk for private markets, then must be taken over by private companies and competition in order to make efficient use of capital and disincentivize corruption.
Success at this process provides income to the state as an investor, or income to the state by taxation or both. This income is then used to create commons – goods, services, information- for the public. At least theoretically. And some is siphoned off by the bureaucracy and their clients (Special interests) as various forms of rent-seeking.
So the problem with America is that we have no method of bringing suit against the government for ‘procedural and process corruption’ – and that corruption is worse in the states than in most other countries for historical reasons.
The fact that this isn’t something every American can recite without thought is an intentional distortion of the American form of government by the left’s propaganda campaign, and ‘march through the institutions’ to destroy the meaning of terms, causes, and ideas.

I’ll reiterate the science: There does exist the stereotypical difference between male and female cognition, personality, and religiosity. And there is an overlap with males having those female traits likewise religious. The effect isn’t small. It’s .92. So Religiosity is a TRAIT. The same is true in the reverse. Male cognition, personality, and martial LOYALTY is driven by traits, and some overlap in females with same traits. Female devotion (social burden) and male loyalty (political burden) are evolutionarily necessary differences in TRAIT expression. The point being, that males with male traits need the military or equivalent (substitute) like females with female traits need the church or equivalent (substitute) – and there is an overlap of these two trait distributions. This is how we obtain(ed) ‘mindfulness’ in European civ. And we have destroyed, all those institutions that have provided the civil society and prevented us from devolving back into extended families and low trust societies like the rest of the world tries to escape from. And the present ‘new religion of hate’ masquerading as a religion of compassion is just a change of clothes on the murderous pseudoscientific cult we call Marxism. “War between classes? That failed. Let’s do war between classes, sexes, religions, cultures!” That’s all it is. HATE.

I. The Rules of Non-Aggression
1) The Silver rule of unequals (do not unto others as they would not have done unto them).
2) The Golden rule of equals (do unto others as you would have done unto you.)Solves the hard problem of known vs unknown.II. The Law of Christian Love
3) The eradication of hatred from the human heart.
4) The extension of kinship love to all.
5) The extension of exhaustive forgiveness before punishment, enserfment, enslavement, death, or war.
6) The demand for personal acts of charity at personal cost.
7) In exchange for peace of mind because can have done no wrong, and need fear no judgement.Solves the hard problem of extra-familial cooperation: the prisoners’ dilemma.III. The Natural Law of Reciprocity
8) Limiting our display, word, and deed, to useful, truthful, warrantied, voluntary exchange of demonstrated interests, free of imposition of costs or burden on the demonstrated interests of others.Solves the hard problem of testing “Do no harm.”IIII. The Law of European Defense
9) reciprocal insurance of self-determination by self-determined means, in sovereignty, reciprocity, truth, duty, by competitive markets, rule of law, jury, and arms.Solves the hard problem of obeying to the laws of nature, rule of law, and the prohibition on ‘authority’If We Understand, then these rules are:
– Universal: Do no harm, – Christian: female and family classes – Rule of Law: Working and Commercial classes – Military Rule of Defense: Upper political and military classes – We are a trifunctional people not just classes but functions, with trifunctional laws and elites. WE ADAPT!

“In Europe as well, up until about 1800, the wealthy had considerably more children than the poor. There was no public assistance for single mothers, so there were strict sanctions against illegitimacy. Women generally did not marry men who could not support them, and many people in the serving classes, therefore, did not marry or have children. And when the lower classes had illegitimate or unwanted children they often exposed them; dead babies were a common sight in gutters or on rubbish heaps.” The serial ‘killers’ with by far the largest numbers were women who disposed of unwanted babies. Unfortunately for archaeologists, Roman sewers were filled with them.My point is this: throughout history, women have killed far more babies than men have in wars. Women have killed three times as many babies by abortion(+60m) since 1973 as soldiers and civilians were killed in world war one(20m). Men > War -vs- Women > Infanticide. Now tell me, what’s the difference? We both defend what we must. So, you know, I have less of a problem with the abortion argument than I do with infanticide. And I have more of a problem with common property, no fault divorce, alimony, child support, and welfare. Negative Feedback loops matter. Ergo: Dysgenia is rampant today.

0. There are only three possible methods of human coercion, and three possible institutions of human organization, and three sets of elites in the perpetuation of those institutions – and the order that civilizations develop those three institutions determine our civilizational differences. 0.1 Those three methods, institutions, and elites, are Force, The Military, and the State and Politicians, Remuneration, markets, Finance, the Law and Judges, and Inclusion(or exclusion), Faith, the Academy-Church, and intellectuals-Priests. The fourth institution has no power of coercion, and that is marriage, family, and vocation. 0.2 One can develop at least the following sequences: … strong military > state > moderate religion(or philosophy) > and weak law as did China or strong military > state > medium-law > and weak religion (?) as did the late romans or strong military > law > medium state > and weak religion as did continental Europeans – unable to resist religious invasion. or strong military > law > medium religion(or philosophy) > and weak state (as anarchists dream) or strong military > religion > medium law > and weak state as did India – unable to unify or resist invasion or strong military > strong religion > weak state > and weak law as did Muslims – having to retain tribalism or weak military > strong religion > religious law > failed state as did the Jews – having to depend on hosts. 1. Institutional religions function as quasi-governments, and either take over the state (Islam), undermine it (Judaism), compete with it (Catholicism), work with it (Orthodoxy), or Abandon it (Protestantism).
STATE <- Islam <- Judaism <- Catholicism <- Orthodoxy -> Protestantism -> FOLK -> Buddhism -> Stoicism -> Epicureanism -> SECULAR 2. Institutional religions resist evolution and reform. Protestant religion continuously reforms by creating a market for sects, that for all intents and purposes, provide messaging for about every half standard of deviation in IQ and class – but with the same underlying set of ideas.
Baptist >Pentecostal >Mormon>Holiness >United >Presbyterian >Protestant >Catholic >Lutheran >Methodist >Agnostic >Athiest >Anglican (catholic being the middle) 3. So at the very least, American evangelical protestant churches have fully abandoned institutions, abandoned the highly experimental religions of the reformation, and have restored Christianity to what we call a folk religion, meaning, self-perpetuating without the need for formal institutions, or political power. 3.1 The evangelicals accomplish de-institutionalization with a greater reliance on superstition, the bible, and the talent of individual preachers- and at least in the more popular churches appears to be migrating to the use of Jesus and the bible such that it performs the same function as cognitive behavioral therapy – in other words – it is the optimum direction for therapeutic religion of the self, providing personal mindfulness which is the first function of religion. It isn’t the optimum direction for social religion whose role is local community binding, or for civic (meaning state) religion whose role is indoctrination, education, and preparation for participation in the state. 3.2 The catholic church, ever fighting against classical empirical and rational thought, all but abandoned the bible, for dogma, principally through the first counter-reformation against Classical thought by Augustine, and the second counter-reformation against the classical restoration by Acquinas – although it could not compete with the combination of the empirical revolution, literacy, the reformation. As a result, it’s less reliant on revelation and superstition. 3.3 The premise is that Catholicism is ‘good’ for you, society, and state. And because of its sophisticated training in ideals and concepts, the Catholic church functioned until the 1950’s as a civic religion. (the founders were wrong not to state that the umbrella of Protestantism was as the state religion.) 3.4 Orthodoxy is nationalistic and produces adherence and faith, including support for the state and functions as social religion. And Orthodoxy maintains its influence and is less threatened by modernity, by not being in conflict with the state, retaining an emphasis on tradition, the family, faith, and the soul. 4. The Catholic Church merged Semitic Christian supernatural with and European classical Aryan rational thought, culminating with the dogma, doctrine, vast literary history, Catechism, Catholic encyclopedia – and much of the doctrine is an imitation of European legal structure from the premise of charity instead of natural law’s reciprocity. This similarity to European law is helpful in understanding why protestants were constitutionalists and secularists have had a harder time against relativism- they have neither catholic nor juridical training in law that is the foundation of western origins. 4.1. The Catholic church had the opportunity to reform multiple times and spawned a history of different movements including sects, Augustinian Synthesis, Monastic movement, Classical Restoration’s Scholasticism, Literacy, the protestant reformation. 5. But the institution itself like any bureaucracy dependent on income streams failed. They failed the natural law restoration, the empirical restoration, the Darwinian revolution, and the Romantic revolution. And tragically failed completely under Vatican Two – choosing the worst of all available options. They failed because they were organized NOT to adapt. 6. An separate institutional church, like the Orthodox, and especially if it has its own income stream (taxes, tithes), serves to limit demands on the state, and lets the Church specialize in education, indoctrination, self, family, society – and lets the state to specialize in via negativa force and dispute resolution. 7. This separation of powers facilitates excellence in both masculine paternal state at national and federal scale, neutral law at commercial scale, and feminine maternal church at personal, familial, and social scale. 8. The Church re-developed natural law, and the Middle Class maintained the common law as natural law, and the state created monarchy as judge of last resort, and houses markets of commons. This produced a legalistic framework across the entirety of the civilization. 8.1 And Jefferson restored Jesus’ teaching in the Jefferson Bible to one of deism and moral philosophy. He restored Jesus’ teaching to the means of tolerating the physical, natural, and evolutionary laws – by the continuous extension of reciprocal love. Not as a war against european people, but as a means of empowering European people to find joy in the tragedy of our continuous stressful evolution into the hands of the gods, by obeying the laws of the universe. 9. Then the French Secular Catholic Authoritarian Literary revolution, the German Secular Catholic Rationalist revolution, and unfortunately, the Jewish anti-European Secular Pseudoscientific revolution – alienated and overwhelmed the church causing retrenchment in superstition. 10. And the Jewish (Marxist, neo-Marxist, pomo, feminist, PC, Woke, Anti-Whiteness, White replacement, White Genocide movement) has been successful at creating a religion of conflict and hate and undermining to replace Christian religion of love and construction. 10.1 Europeans think in terms of control by competition, but the Jews (like women) think in terms of undermining. It’s hard for us to step into their shoes because fundamentally they avoid all responsibility and accountability and always preserve plausible deniability. So it’s less about power and more about tearing civilization down. Where Europeans eliminated authority by meritocracy in production, they eliminated authority by undermining host civilizations. That this is illogical never occurs to them. 14/15/16. Because there is no difference between the Jewish usurpation of Jesus’ teachings into ‘Churchianity’ and incrementally destroying roman civilization, institutions, law, education, culture, arts, aesthetics, and killing teachers and philosophers, and creating the dark ages of ignorance and superstition. 16.2 And they repeated the same warfare against civilization in their usurpation of science and converting it to pseudoscience (Marxist, neo-Marxist, pomo, feminist, PC, Woke, Anti-Whiteness, White replacement, White Genocide movement) and deliberately marching through our churches, our education, our media, and our academy, and state, and using them all as a pulpit of hatred of European civilization, because we alone discovered the true words of the gods: in the physical, natural, and evolutionary laws. 11. To reform our natural religion and tradition for the age of science – where we KNOW the laws of nature, the universe, and the universe’s god – requires we understand it in those terms. We have those terms: the natural law of reciprocity, and universal Christian love to tolerate those laws. 12/13. So it is quite possible to reconstruct a ‘church’ meaning school, academy, intelligentsia, and restore our high trust, our universal Christian love, our high-quality commons, with the same underlying structure (natural law, Christian love) just as Protestantism provided sects for different social and economic classes, whether feminine empathic and spiritual, or masculine, political, and practical, and to restore civilization to previous highs free of Jewish instigation of hatred, undermining, and destruction. 13.1 We can create a reformation of Christian Religion, teaching personal spiritual faith for those who desire it and teaching reason with European history, the natural law, and Christian ethics for those who desire it, and we can embody in our laws, the natural law, the Christian ethics, and restore the unification of our church, education, and academy, for all of us, whether faithful and theological or philosophical and scientific – and defend against these hostile peoples forever. 17/18. And if anything, or anyone, it is Europeans who then are chosen by god or the gods, and speak the ideals, language, and rules, of god or the gods, and while the Jews created dark ages and deceits, and the Muslims more bloodshed than the plagues, Europeans almost single-handedly dragged mankind out of ignorance, superstition, hard labor, starvation, disease, suffering, child mortality, early death, the tyranny of scoundrels, warriors, and priests, and the vicissitudes of nature all but hostile to advanced life. 19/20. We control our destinies and this earth because of Europeans. Europeans and Europeans almost exclusively produced the primacy of man (Indo Europeans), reason, law, naturalism, and realism (Mediterraneans), and the empirical, agrarian, commercial, financial, industrial, first and second scientific revolution, and the medical and technological revolutions(Atlantics). And we are ushering in the genetic and sentient revolutions. Not because we are always first, but we are the most adaptive, so we are always the FASTEST. 21. So what people, what culture, what ethics, provide the evidence of following the words of god or gods, not the lies of men claiming they are the words of god? What is the basis of our European civilization, and our anglo-American-germanic-European culture? 22. We know: Discovering, adapting to, and applying the laws of nature and nature’s god, to ourselves, by reciprocal insurance of self-determination, by sovereignty, reciprocity, truth, duty, jury, monarchy, parliament, faith, and people. 23. Maximizing at all times the computation of the mind of God. And in doing so, evolving ourselves into the hands of God. So that we may make this life, this earth, others, and this universe into the heaven we imagine.
