(snippet of debate we can learn from) [I] almost always operate under the assumption that genes do the talking and that the rational mind needs assistance in overcoming the influence of accumulated cognitive bias in favor of one’s reproductive strategy. So I suspect you are just the usual victim of WISHFUL THINKING and need rescuing. Because I don’t see evidence that you’re knowledgeable enough to engage in FRAUD. And I don’t see evidence that you’re emotionally neutral and openly skeptical of your opinion so I do not think you ERR. As such, you are the perfect target for cosmopolitan deception: an obscurant and complex justification for whatever your cognitive bias: socialist, libertine, or neocon. You are a ‘useful idiot’ for the anti-western anti-aristocratic pseudoscientific, pseudo-rational, religions. The great lie version two. This time in multiple class sizes: socialist, libertine, and neocon. It’s not so bad that one is fooled – we all are. What’s bad is maintaining a bias that’s increasingly, obviously, false, because it was a bad but exciting investment.

Naturalism, Aristotelianism, Christianity, Stoicism and now Buddhism
[H]ere is the thing about Christianity: the extension of kinship love to non-kin and the extirpation of hatred from the human heart. Our people have lower sensitivity to (disgust for) out-groups anyway. But between our genetic bias as cold weather folk, christianity, chivalry, and the prohibition on cousin marriage, the west has evolved rapidly a high trust civilization – even if it has become partly to its detriment. Yes our mediterranean, hanseatic and nordic trade routes were helpful as well, since commercial cultures without out-group competition tend to have less reason to be mistrustful. Yes, our lack of genetic diversity helped quite a bit. Yes, as we’ve learned recently (to my excitement) it appears that the lower incidence of disease in the cold climate means lower barriers to association and trade. But our primary talent – martial epistemology – or truthfulness – would not be as useful without this christian openness. This preference for ‘error on the side of trust’. What christianity achieves through extension of kinship love, buddhism achieves through introspection, stoicism achieved through planning, focus, action, and review. These are three different methods of training the unquiet mind to quietly interact with the world, without fear. Westerners practice many religions: The nurturer (buddhism), the craftsman(stoicism), the merchant and politician (christianity), the warrior (the military), the scientist (Aristotle), the aesthete (Pagan nature worship). (and unfortunately, over the past century, the pseudoscientific state worshipper) We have always been a poly-spiritual people. We have always been and will likely remain pagans. Religions are tools. I know the value of a quiet mind: the absence of anxiety and fear. I know the (lost) value of the worship of nature: care of the commons. I know the importance of membership in the tribe: ceremonies and rituals. I know the value of spirituality (invoking the feeling of the safety of the pack). I know the value of solace in fear, hopelessness, suffering and death. But I also know that love, truth, and trust create prosperity. Because fear, deceit, and mistrust generate poverty. How do we distinguish a religion from a political system? Law rather than wisdom (advice). How do we distinguish a religion from a military system? conquest. How do we distinguish a good religion from a bad anything else? The relative economic status of its adherents. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute Kiev Ukraine.

Responding to “Aggressively Unreadable Doolittle”
RE: http://selfadoration.com/for-luke-williams-heres-a-com…/8123
—“or the aggressively-unreadable Doolittle.”—-
You know, I want to say ‘ouch’ but, I have to just own it. lol. On the other hand have you read Hegel? Wittgenstein? Heidegger? Philosophy is a technical specialty like any niche technical discipline. The difference is that we are often trying to reorder existing human conceptual categories, properties, and relations. Rewiring the mind so to speak. I am far better than I was even four years ago. And I will get better still. But in the end, a philosopher writes for experts, experts write for the heavily interested, and the heavily interested write for the popular, and the popular simplify for the simple. This is how innovation in thought is distributed. I am not the first person to say that our job is to bring people up to the new level of comprehension not dumb it down for the existing level where its lacking. Else darwin would have vanished by now. Even still – most people still think evolution has a direction. smile emoticon I am doing something very special. And very important. And I know that doing it in public is a risk. But it turns out lots of people like to see the product being made so to speak, and it also turns out that it helps me a great deal to get their comment and criticism. I want to make it impossible for politicians and public intellectuals to lie without repercussion. To do that I have to show how to tell the truth. From there how to put the technique for truth telling into law, and a constitution. If we make it just as difficult to deceive, lie cheat, free ride and privatize as we have made it difficult to steal physical property, then liberty will result from it. Because all those things that prohibit liberty are matters of theft of one kind or another. So instead of advocating liberty as a way of producing liberty, I’m trying to outlaw everything else so that only liberty remains. It is this inversion of the philosophy of liberty that takes a while to get your head around. Just as incremental suppression of parasitism by the constant evolution of the common law leaves only the market available for survival, I want to make the incremental suppression of parasitism in the public discourse and law leaving only truth candidates that survive. If we succeed at this goal, and if we convert from monopoly rule democracy to a market for the production of commons between the classes, then we will have constructed a condition of liberty – and a condition of liberty that persists. Anyway. I really do apologize that my work is indigestible. It really does take a pretty sophisticated individual to grok it. But they do. And we move onward. Slowly.

Strategy: If We Eliminate The Parasitic, Only Liberty Remains
(worth repeating) [R]emove all choice, so that only Liberty Remains, just as by removing all choice, only the market remains.
“If we make it just as difficult to deceive, lie cheat, free ride and privatize as we have made it difficult to steal physical property, then liberty will result from it. Because all those things that prohibit liberty are matters of theft of one kind or another. So instead of advocating liberty as a way of producing liberty, I’m trying to outlaw everything else so that only liberty remains.”—Curt Doolittle
We pacify man by the incremental suppression and if necessary, extermination, of parasitism.

The Propertarian (Doolittle) Scientific Political Chart
[T]he only meaningful notion of ‘right’ and ‘left’ that I can state existentially is k-selection (right/masculine ), vs r-selection (left/feminine-universal) since these are opposing strategies with libertarianism (voluntary cooperation) achievable as a compromise between the two strategies. (that is how I see we minority libertarians: providing a compromise between the genders through voluntary cooperation). As far as I know we must talk in at least three dimensions to discuss options on political orders.
1 - Organization of production - distribution of property 2 - Organization of production of the commons - the fruits of production 3 - Organization of Reproduction - National(kin) or Corporate(kin-independent) And to construct these organizations we require incentives: 4 - Weapon of Influence (methods of organization)So it is indeed impossible to construct an r-selected order non-parasitically. Because that’s precisely what it means. And it is so because we must produce incentive to engage in costly production if we are human (k-selection), even though the herd must just graze on whatever grass is available (r-selection). This is the Doolittle chart, not the Nolan Chart. This chart unifies all disciplines from biology to politics to economics. This chart is consistently explanatory across all political orders. So as far as I know any OTHER method of representing the organization of Production(consumption), commons(investment) and reproduction(perpetuation) is a distraction for the purpose of achieving an alternate end other than the true and moral.
