Mar 14, 2020, 12:13 PM If you’re a man living in the USA you don’t know how much more relaxed you are in an eastern block country where men still naturally act like men, women like women, and treat each other as men and women expect to be treated. This “unnatural” condition inspired by the left, is something we must fix one way or the other – now.

Omniscient and Omnipotent, Not Omnipresent
Mar 14, 2020, 7:16 PM
—“Hey Curt – When you speak about Agency, I often see you define the highest point of Agency as omniscience and omnipresence. You stop short of mentioning omnipotence – why is that? …. Say you possess full Agency, you’re omniscient and omnipresent, and not limited by ignorance, intelligence, impulse, your body, technology, a lack of resources or the external impediments placed on you by others…does that not make you omnipotent, also?”—
I don’t make that mistake. Others do. I don’t correct them because I assume they’re just confused. If I ever said anything like that it’s an autocorrect error. Omniscient (knowledge) is practically possible within limits. Omnipotent (action) is practically possible within limits Omnipresence (everywhere at once) is impossible regardless of limits because it’s by definition unlimited. The christian claim is that god is omnipresent. That’s where people are getting the error from. Christianity.

Mar 15, 2020, 11:56 PM Without the experience we are not man enough to understan
Mar 15, 2020, 11:56 PM Without the experience we are not man enough to understand military discipline or the seriousness of the consequences of it. Men are incompetent robots under duress. Imagine you are exhausted, freezing, hungry, you have wounds, and haven’t slept in days, and you still have to fight. The reason that’s possible is discipline – you don’t think. You don’t feel. You don’t consider. you just do. And there is nothing in the world like knowing you can do that. And that the men around you can do that. And that those who can’t are barely domesticated animals unworthy of your attention, time, or effort. Imagine a generation men like that. And imagine a generation of millennials. That’s the difference between civlization and barbarism.

Pragmatic? Or…
Mar 18, 2020, 7:22 PM
—“I’m pragmatic – why am I reading this if I know that the need for women to raise children is going to destroy that beautiful essay on law or that poetry of grammar that you just wrote.”—
I want to know whether you are pragmatic or simply advocating islamisation, or orthodoxy, or dictatorship, meaning we must coddle our women and lie, and abandon the european rule of law project. All I hear so far is criticisms of western behavior, and demand for either russian authority, or islamic authority, but I don’t hear anything western about it. I don’t hear how we continue the benefits of western civilization. One of the techniques of Critique is to criticize without offering a superior alternative, in order to justify a status quo. This is how the jewish intellectuals undermined western civlization with Boas, Freud, Marx, Adorno-Fromm, Friedan, Derrida et al, and the thousands and thousands of advocates. So, what’s your solution instead? Is it islam?

Train the Elephant – All the Way
Mar 20, 2020, 11:33 AM The more agency the have the less intuition to rely on to choose, the more you rely on intuition to falsify. I think that’s the net of it. “What does my intuition say? Ok. how can that be false? What’s the evidence that falsifies my intuition? And repeat that endlessly.” I mean, I know that’s how I think. Free association, falsification, loop until I have a first principle. Normal human reaction is just to seek a response from intuition. You have to train the elephant.
