STUPID: “We found that people use the label stupid for three separate types of situation: (1) violations of maintaining a balance between confidence and abilities; (2) failures of attention; and (3) lack of control. So, we call people stupid when they aren’t using their given cognitive abilities. We don’t call people with low cognitive abilities stupid.”

CONSERVATISM’S SENSE OF DISGUST (PURITY)
You know, what separates conservatives from libertarians is not only groupishness (hierarchy, duty), but a higher purity (disgust) response. Now, I am entirely aware that I have this disgust response. And I know its genetic. And I know its evolutionary purpose. And so in the moral, legal, and POLITICAL context I try not to let it interfere with my judgements. But in the personal context, in my own life, I still feel a very high disgust response to the same things conservatives do. So I tend to avoid ‘disgusting’ environments both physically and intellectually. The hard discipline to develop for most of us is not projecting our feelings as universal goods, but instead, special adaptations for the division of perception, cognition, knowledge, labor and advocacy. It is hard, but we can demonstrate preference in personal life and demonstrate awareness of preference in reason.

(As you get older, everything mental is easier, everything social is easier, and everything physical is harder. lol I can still work almost as many hours as I could in my twenties, and I can outperform myself in my twenties in intellectual effort and in social interaction. But I used to be awfully strong and I need to work on that a bit – ’cause it fades. lol )

THE WALL OF MEN IS THE ONLY WALL THAT STANDS
—“Impulsive men cannot be counted upon to hold formation; and it is our fitness, discipline, will, and reason, that compensate for our smaller numbers. It is insufficient to ignore them. So either silence them or end them.”—
—“Our ancestors were successful in the extirpation of hatred from the european heart. But this is only an extension of our ancient tradition of the subjugation of impulse. Passion, fear, anger and hatred do not make you strong, they make you impulsive, and the impulsive do not reason, and those who do not reason are weak in practice. If one requires courage it is obtained through fitness, discipline, will, reason, planning and training. In the fog of war, or the chaos of the unknown, one’s excitement withers under the grinding of reality. So love your body, your craft of violence, your fellows and your plan, and execute it with discipline, passion and joy.”—
—“Majority is a weakness. We built Europa first and did so twice, and dragged the world kicking and screaming out of subsistence agrarianism, mysticism, ignorance, disease, and poverty, with small numbers, and limited wealth, with a small alliance of professional warriors, whose honor was proved by constant test of it. As a minority we demonstrate our virtues, and as a majority the cowardly merely pretend to them. The man of pretense is a free rider, and can, should, and must be beaten for his theft. Those few of us who remain transcend our people once again, and yet again drag humanity kicking and screaming into godhood.”—
—“No wall can defeat insurrection, displacement of a population, conversion by religion, or industrialized weapons. The only wall that stands against insurrection, invasion, conversion, and war, is made of men, with a greater willingness to die to defend their kin, than those who desire to control, displace, convert, or kill them.”—
—“A warrior is an athlete first, a craftsmen of violence second, a captain of men third, a judge fifth, a strategist fourth, and a philosopher sixth. If you cannot fight, whether you know what to fight for and against has little meaning.”—
—“Instilling fear in the enemy is an attempt to obtain their compliance at a discount. One can learn not to fear, and one can accumulate courage. So punish your pragmatic men. And defeat your enemy completely. The dead have no will to fight, and no descendants to revenge them.”—
—“Conquest and rule of inferior external peoples who demonstrate greater parasitism, or inferior internal peoples who demonstrate diminution of your kin is always moral and warranted, and the question is only whether it is affordable and profitable. Conversely, if you demonstrate inferiority by greater parasitism or diminution of your kin, then your conquest, defeat and murder are always moral and warranted. Morality is the measure of rule. Immorality is a license to conquer and rule morally, but not conquer and prey immorally.”—
—“Cooperation is only virtuous if it advances your kin relative to the kin of others. Otherwise it is an act of bribery on some other’s part, to end you, your kin, and their lineage by ‘boiling the frog’: death by imperceptible increments. It’s genocide by slower means, but it’s genocide none the less. Whether one is a mere frog or imbecile, ignorant man, or selfish man, or hate-filled man, one’s perception of the pace of change of in state of one’s kin is not a fact or of whether or not in fact, a state of change in one’s kin and lineage occurs. “—
—“The only form of tolerance is the cost of education of those with less knowledge, productivity, and moral virtue, into those who have greater knowledge, productivity, and moral virtue. All other claimed tolerance is merely an attempt to avoid the cost of educating others to possess greater knowledge, productivity, and moral virtue. If you will not pay for the commons which sustains you by policing it, then you can exit it voluntarily, be punished until you exit it or change, or be put to death so you can no longer parasitically prey upon the commons produced by others.”—
—“Virtues lead to beneficial ends. If they lead to non-beneficial ends, whether now or in the distant future, they are still non-beneficial ends. Consumerism, consumptionism, equalitarianism, open borders, religious pluralism, and democracy are means of conducting a war against a population just as certainly as bombs, guns, swords, arrows, spears, and rocks. If you care not for you kin then you need not worry for you will have none. It is up to those of us who care for our kin to persist, and you who do not, to vanish from the history written in our genes, our technologies, our arts, our myths, and our monuments,”—

(Did you ever wonder why it’s late at night, and you’re sitting there in your office or street clothes, working over your laptop, when you could instead be sitting back with a soft terry robe, a work or cool drink, and some fruit and cheese? sigh. Can someone lend me some extra brain please? Because I clearly don’t have enough sense to do the obvious.)

THE USE OF SUGGESTION TO HACK OUR REASON AND EXPERIENCE – EVEN OUR SELF PRESERVATION.
While I have trouble with subtle emotions – particularly confusion and fear – which I don’t really feel in combination – I have a very good logic and lie detector. Which is why continental language bothers me so much. It’s like a dysfunctional alcoholic is trying to rope me into some bullshit story in order to sell me shit I don’t want at a discount just for the sake of not offending him. It takes advantage of the suspension of disbelief to use suggestion by bypassing our experience, reason, criticism and judgement, and abusing our western familial altruistic trust response.
So I basically can’t understand anything because I never suspend my disbelief, abandon experience, reason, or judgement, and as such cannot experience the suggestion.
Originally, some people may recall, I wasn’t sure I needed to solve the problem of Truth, but it turned out to be the most important problem I did solve, and helped me restate my concept of ‘calculation’ as ‘operationalism.
Over the past two years I’ve been thinking about the means of our deception – do I need to solve it and do I want to solve it? Why does loading, framing, overloading and suggestion work so well when we are in an audience whether in church, in school, sitting round the campfire, being spoken to directly by someone in authority or whom you respect or whom you love, listening on the radio, watching in a play or movie in the theatre, or cruising the internet? Why are we suggestible (trust) and why are we not suggestible (untrust)?
I recognized early that overloading caused us to resort to intuition, and that once engaging intuition we had surrendered reason. But I did not understand the trust response, nor the suspension of disbelief response, nor the effect of combining the trust response, suspension of belief response, combined with loading, framing, overloading – and the most important of all: the submission to the pack response when we are members of an audience.
Basically if you can find a way to directly appeal to our moral cognitive biases you can hack our altruism, reason, experience, and even sense of preservation.
We are terribly suggestible creatures.
Hence the value of truth – raising the cost of untruth such that only truth remains. Just as we raised the cost of violence, theft, fraud, and in many cases, free riding, such that only productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer free of externality remains.
We created the market in steps. First violence. Then Theft. Then fraud. Then free riding.
It’s time to improve the market again by prohibiting suggestion by requiring truth in all matters of the commons.

One of the most severe problems young men face is the limited number of sources of status signaling available to them that also encourages them to develop wealth, independence, and ultimate liberty from which aristocratic confidence springs.
I have always enjoyed the company of artists, writers, and nerds, but I always do business with more serious folk – partly because it is my family tradition back to at least the fourteenth century to engage in business, government and military affairs.
The current era allows us to digitally associate with groups who we might not have personal access to in normal time and space. So I would recommend looking for opportunity locally, friends locally, and signals online where it is information rather than social status, physical features, language, and fashion that we share.
Most men who are successful want to ‘give back’ to society in some way or another. I want to give back to the people who, like me, had little help on their journey – as a catharsis by which I exorcize past frustrations.
This is why I love my fellows so much, and encourage them so much, and put in so much of my time and effort – its actually selfish. With each act I compensate for each prior frustration.
Men need love each other, and strengthen each other, for the women only pretend to, and the government they have elected, tries to destroy us.

The very competent men I know – and many of them – never refer to romantic pasts, childhood, or childhood symbols, they merely focus on existential presents in pursuit of possible futures. This is quite different from the idealism and longing for past myths. I don’t like knowing this. But what it tells me is that we have infantalized our males.

( I might be either a romantic or old fashioned but I love getting the approval of a woman. I love making them feel safe, and understood, and a bit spoiled. I love being in relationships. I love, their attention, care, affection and laughter. The problem is getting one that hasn’t been corrupted by the selfishness and mania of feminism. And no that doesn’t mean I think women have a clue about politics any more than I have a clue about children, or how to mother them. And that’s fine. It’s a division of perception, experience, cognition, knowledge, labor, and advocacy. I am perfectly ok saying that I comprehend half of the communication women engage in. I’m also perfectly ok saying it is nearly impossible to find a women whith whom you can have a deep conversation about astract ideas. That’s OK. I have men for those things. )
