Regarding “Zeihan’s been predicting china’s decline for ten years” So have I and others. Zeihan is just the best at explaining it. I predicted in 04-06 that China’s economy would correct between 10 and 14. I was wrong. But their data is terrible, the degree to which they had done to the west’s technology and economy what America did the the european economy in the late 1800’s and the Germans after World War Two difficult is to observe from afar, and perhaps most importantly, when the State as primary investor can’t fall to fear and flight like major banks, institutional and retail investors (something the west must learn), and when they had until this year an endless labor pool to price arbitrage against the world – it was very hard to get the timing right....

This is painful. No. Obscurantism and common sophism, and all to common. “Natural Law” (moral, philosophical) (the law is sovereign)-> Natural Law (scientific: reciprocity) Evolutionary Law (People Are Sovereign)(European pre continental and present common law) Common-Law Originalism-Textualism (the democratic polity is sovereign) the purpose is to fore the people and legislature into responsible action. Political Law (Academics, The State is Sovereign) -> Continental Law by Codes Kritarchy (rule by judges, judges decide sovereignty)(Jewish Law) -> Positive Law...

Given the subject matter, and my concern about the necessity of militias, I’ll forgo my usual sarcastic criticism of european constitutions written like fairy tale menus in children’s stories. That said, this is all the constitution says: Switzerland shall have armed forces. In principle, the armed forces shall be organized as a militia. The armed forces serve to prevent war and to maintain peace; they defend the country and its population....

THE CORRECT ANSWER Just as we can know negative freedoms but not positive freedoms we can know negative morality but not positive morality. Why? Because negative morality is a universal: “reciprocity over time within the limits of proportionality” or its inverse “irreciprocity” is as impossible to counter as “all choice is rational given the knowledge and incentives of the actor at a time”, and “people always pursue self rational interest within the limits of their knowledge and incentives” All of these are necessary truths and perspectives on the same scientific and logical necessity....

The ADL is no different SINN FEIN, the political wing of the IRA. They just use legal tropes, finance, and propaganda instead of violence to undermine the polity from within. And no different from the Bolsheviks, seizing power from within. This is why monarchies are necessary.

“What are your thoughts on the U.S. Capitol going into lockdown on January 6, 2021 after supporters of President Trump breached barriers as Congress was debating election challenges?” PAINFUL TRUTH I didn’t approach the capitol building. It was someone else’s rally. Stepping on other leader’s toes has hurt in the past. I foolishly assumed leadership was present. It wasn’t. It can’t be. Because despite the exceptional strategic and tactical leadership of the Soros, ADL, SPLC, BLM, and Antifa on the ground, Republicans and conservatives have no strategic or tactical leaders on the ground or any organization or communication channels of note....

Q: Curt, What now? We learned that the military won’t intervene (Like I said). We learned security is weak. We learned conservatives had hit their limit of tolerance. But that conservatives are a diorganized amateurish leaderless mess. Now we get serious. Trump is gone. Enemy is in Power. The Conservative Fail Army Failed again – although not QUITE as bad as Charlottesville. So I’ll put out the plan in a set of videos....

“What’s the difference between training Stoicism and providing education in Folk Religions?” Stoicism can be practiced as a ritual of self-transformation toward specific goals. It is just organized cognitive behavioral therapy and there is no substitute for it. It provides mindfulness. Folk religions are social. pagan martial, and Christianity is a political religion The stoic method is simply a rational discipline of cognitive-behavioral therapy (and an action-driven alternative to the passive woo woo of Buddhism), and is the most effective and scientific method of self-authoring....

THE ORIGIN OF BAD LAW IS JEWISH PILPUL I don’t know whether Scalia didnt know or whether he was afraid to say so, but the ‘big lies’ of ‘living constitution’, ‘interpretation’, and judicial activism, were introduced postwar Jews’ pilpul and critique, from interpreting Jewish Law. LEGAL DECIDABILITY In just a few decades, by 1980, Jewish pilpul and critique, positive law, and Jewish kritarchy, had succeeded in incrementally rewriting the constitution against the will of the people....

SUBSTANTIVE CRITICISMS OF THIS SERIES by YALE The constitution wasn’t pro-slavery, it was just politically impossible to eliminate it AND unify the north and south, and it was economically impossible for the south to give it up, the north wouldn’t pay for the repatriation of the slaves, or subsidizing the costs of the south to abandon them, and north and south were substantially different civilizations because the south was agrarian Scotts-Irish and the north commercial anglo-dutch, as different as anglo and french canada today and this genetic and cultural difference remains....
