    INDIVIDUAL MAN THE ANIMAL, WARRIOR MAN THE HUMAN.

    Men. You are disposable to women, and disposable to politicians, and disposable to intellectuals.

    The only brothers you have, to whom you are not disposable are brothers in arms, the sergeants, captains, and generals who depend upon you. And the generations of warriors before you, and those that may yet follow you if you do not fail.

    As individuals only your brothers need you.

    As a collection of warriors we are all indispensable to all.

    Our value is in our numbers: our brothers in arms.

    The natural order of men is the hunter and the warrior – our bourgeoise luxuries and comforts are a privilege of the good life prior warriors have made possible for us.

    But just as women abuse this luxury, we do also.

    If you will not fight for Liberty, and if you will not join and forever remain a member of the fraternity of generals, warriors, and soldiers then you will eventually pay the cost in life culture and genes of failing to maintain the first commons if men: the initiative brotherhood of warriors from which man arises from animal.

    (watching Mr Robot, and they have the character profile down so perfectly, it’s scary – they must be on the spectrum, or have done a lot of research. Autism isn’t related to schizophrenia, and I haven’t had any form of hallucination that wasn’t induced by recreational chemical entertainment – but the problem of ‘mind management’ is something I I deal with every waking moment, because the OCD effect of the autism is absolutely crushing in a way that I can’t describe other than with relentless unforgiving pressure that only lessens in social environments – I don’t really TRY to concentrate, I try to control what I concentrate on, because I can’t help but obsessively concentrate. And so you sort of develop this detachment from others if for no other reason than your always sort of occupied by either keeping the monstrosity at bay, or whatever problem the monstrosity is working on. And sometimes you just need quiet, and regular daily cycles to rest. And others you need stimulation. And your life(mood) is driven by the needs of the monstrosity. So perhaps that is why I find the elephant and rider analogy so compelling. Because I assume for most people they feel they have a lot of control of the elephant. But I feel like I have almost none. So the series is, a little like Good Will Hunting was when I was younger, somewhere bettween completely resonant, and uncomfortably biographical.)

  • THE BRAIN, EMOTIONAL TRAUMA, PSYCHOSIS The reason emotional trauma is so problem

    THE BRAIN, EMOTIONAL TRAUMA, PSYCHOSIS

    The reason emotional trauma is so problematic for the brain, is that we develop procedural (neural pathway) means of circumventing the traumatized memories. If we could block access to them (right now we can only block conversion of them into long term memory) then we could avoid having to create ‘agents’ to circumvent them.

    Unfortunately, later traumas that are physical, pharmaceutical, or emotional, can damage the agent, leaving the remaining brain fewer pathways to work with.

    We see for example, in people with incremental (slow, cumulative) brain damage, that the brain can pretty amazingly compensate for loss of almost everything except the brain stem.

    But physical loss we grow around is not affected by later traumas that we have not lost, only created an immunity response to.

    So over time the mind is consistently occupied by the maintenance of these firewalls, and then when the individual resorts to drugs for relief, the brain’s only alternative is psychosis.

    Meaning there is no calculative means of discovering a stable (peaceful and low energy) state.

    And we cannot maintain such a state any more than we can go without sleep, indefinitely.

    (of course I’m ‘eccentric’. anyone who sacrifices heavily for an intellectual pursuit is odd. it’s not normal to obsess on any topic. So all of us are a bit peculiar. we aren’t models to imitate, we’re resources to learn from. equality is a cancerous idea. specialization creates value we all share – not just in the economy, but in social and intellectual life. It is this diversity of specialization that is useful, whereas normative and legal diversity is costly. The crazy alcoholic uncle unable to catch a wife earned his respect by taking the risks no one else in the family could. Same goes for intellectuals. Genes work within kin groups. Individuals vary widely within. we need crazies all over the place – at least enough to protect the center where the normies breed ever increasingly wonderful generations.)

    Honor among men has no color.

    It may be true that at present, the probability varies with color.

    But no man is incapable of Honor

    It’s a matter of will, effort, and discipline.

    Strong men stand at the wall of war, invasion, and conversion.

    Strong men stand at the wall of violence, theft and fraud.

    Strong men stand at the wall of manners, ethics, and morality

    Strong men stand at the wall of truth in word and deed.

    Honor does not seek approval.

    Honor knows no opinion.

    Its seeks to create a garden which we call civilization.

    And in that garden we all can prosper.

    For generation, after generation, after generation

    Not just so others may sleep well in their beds.

    But so we and ours can as well.

    Evolution and PhilosophyFor my core followers only: Adam is running with evolutionary morality in an exceptionally interesting direction, and holds the promise of providing for mankind what spencer and his followers failed to.

    I really don’t want to see his page dumb-ified by the whacky margins. But for those of you who are trying to get into arguing operationally, or using evolutionary and propertarian arguments, his work is going in a direction that may help us.
