    Neighbor. Late 80’s. Woman. Frail. Slow. Once Sophisticated. Clearly well read. Always looks proper.

    I make a little time now and then to talk with her about what she’s reading, or just inquire about her day.

    Remarks to someone else “Curt talks to me.”

    Which I consider odd. Of course I talk to her.

    People from small towns do these things.

    Gentlemen do these things.

    It’s not charity, its investment in civil society.

    The question is, why it’s odd that people talk to her.

    It shouldn’t be.

    LATE AGE SUICIDE: LONELINESS

    Its Loneliness. That’s the data. Not money. Loneliness. And buying attention and affection substitutes is too expensive in the absence of family and friends.

    Families are the only possible insurer.

    IT’S OK TO BE MEN OF INACTION, AS LONG AS YOU STAY OUT OF THE WAY

    –“Lobertarianism is lolberism cloaked in big brain individualism. It’s ok to be men of inaction as long as it doesn’t directly affect you, and if it does, retaliation cannot affect anyone else. It’s an outspoken version of pacifism.”—David Parker

  • Christianity does in fact produce mindfulness – as does and must, any religion.

    Christianity does in fact produce mindfulness – as does and must, any religion. And mindfulness does in fact produce agency. The question is whether we can produce the same mindfulness but far greater agency if we retain the scientific (secular) content of the religion, reform the history, reform the lessons, reform the oath, and sacrifice/feast.

  • MORE ON THE ESOTERIC, OCCULT, AND LITERARY AND A REQUEST THAT MEN FACE THEIR LAC

    MORE ON THE ESOTERIC, OCCULT, AND LITERARY AND A REQUEST THAT MEN FACE THEIR LACK OF AGENCY AS INDIVIDUALS

    How do I make clear that one does not argue with the fulfilling (wisdom lit) but with the truth (science)? Well that’s what I try to do.

    I have had to continuously counter-signal attacks against my work for not providing a lower agency, more accessible version of the natural law. THERE ISN”T ONE. Man can be lifted to it by constructing his agency, but it cannot be lowered for those lacking it.

    And yes it is lower agency to need literature because it relies on appeal to intuition and does not consist of a continuous stream of constant relations between reality and decision.

    But that does not mean that when one possesses lower agency one cannot still live a fulfilling life. It means that literary argument is analogy and wisdom helpful in choice of preference and good – and perhaps even understanding. It can in fact function as sedation. Or even inspiration. Inspiration necessary because of a lack of membership in teams granting one agency.

    I would read the lord of the rings, and dune, and Neuromancer to envision possibilities, and in fact, most history to gain wisdom. I can understand reading the essays of wise men (particularly Montaigne and Chesterton). But these are vehicles for understanding. Not for argument and decision. Any more than religion and rationalism are means of arguing for truth.

    IT IS QUITE HARD TO LACK AGENCY AS A YOUNG MAN. As such i’m criticizing the lack of organizations for MEN. But I undrestand the struggle of being an individual young male, particularly in modernity. It’s alienating.

    Literature is a substitute for membership in a group with which one obtains agency. Individualism is the necessary subject of the Law – all else requires guilds, teams, militias, armies, and governments: NUMBERS.

    Again… esotericism is escapist literature for those with low agency, and I’m absolutely positive if I spent 25k for an academic and his grad students to do the research it would come out as the same. Esotericism is simply another secular religion. And literature is between wisdom literature, secular theology, entertainment, and escapism.

    So it’s ok to criticize and I understand the market need exists. But I am not trying to fill that market need by DEGREDATION but by transcendence of the male into that which he longs for by EXISTENTIAL rather than fantasy means.

    And if not, then all that matters is that a small percentage of the population of choose agency, action, and transformation of the real world, as an army, rather than literary sedation, as an individual.

  • The Needs of The Weak, the Will of The Strong

    Moritz brings up yet again that many young men want a new religion. And their criteria for a philosophy, is simply an inspirational theology. And I’m fully aware of this criticism. Propertarianism is structured as a philosophy out of utility – the utility of falsifying rationalist philosophy. But what I’m writing is LAW. Uniting science (physics, economics, sociology, psychology, metaphysics), and law into a single commensurable language across all disciplines providing a means by which we can suppress falsehoods, and particularly the abrahamic falsehoods (pilpul/critique) and the modern versions of them (postmodernism/marxism). And with that law providing a constitution that makes it possible to restore the specific uniqueness of the west, and our ability to drag ourselves, and humanity, kicking and screaming into transcendence: evolutionary progress. There is no reason for you to like the law. On the explanatory power and commensurability and decidability it provides. It slaughters all your sacred cows. But then again, why do you need falsehoods? My position is that the weak of body, spirit, and mind, need them and the strong of body, spirit, and mind do not. Those who are weak will never judge, never govern, never rule. They are only important in that they will fight for the material incentives provided by defeat of the parasites and the rescue of our civilization – or not. Very few of us our needed. The weak can stay home. Meaning – if you need a cult, you and your genes are a part of the problem, and of no value to the solution. The meek won’t inherit the earth. They will only live with the permissions give to them by those that do.

  • The Process of Cognitive Development

    |Cognition| Analogistic > Theoretical > Axiomatic > Operational  by Bill Joslin So the process of cognitive development and concept creation would follow this spectrum. 1) Analogistic : abductive, fictional, imaginary, free association, imaginable – hypothesis creation. 2) Theoretical – inductive, narrative, possible, hypothesis development 3) Axiomatic – deductive, descriptive, deterministic, testable, probable, provable law proposal 4) Operational – descriptive, directive, decidable, actionable, warrant able, testable, falsifiable – creation(discovery) of law A (spectrum) process of constant disambiguation leading to more effective action (increases in agency) – which is why some may get stuck at one position and then assert each as separate discrete entities which are opposed to each other (a type of cherry picking) versus steps toward disambiguation (I think you did it Bill Joslin …. damn!) 😉
