    GENES DRIVE BEHAVIOR NOT INTENT

    If women cannot conceive of the evil of their moral intuitions, why would a (((population))) that had bred for the continuous selection of feminine traits have any more consciousness of their evil than women do?

    We just make excuses for our intuitions. Our intuitions are created by our genes.

  • CONSPIRACY THEORY: THE THING YOU RAIL AGAINST IS AN IQ, AGENCY, AND SANITY TEST

    CONSPIRACY THEORY: THE THING YOU RAIL AGAINST IS AN IQ, AGENCY, AND SANITY TEST

    As far as I know, yes, in any organizational structure, whenever the organization fails, there is always some blame avoidance going to occur, because it probably was preventable with more aggressive action. Yet there is no reward for reorganizing the priorities of any organization.

    That has nothing to do with a ‘conspiracy’ other than a conspiracy of common interest to avoid blame.

    That has nothing to do with the pseudoscientific nonsense that a building that size, subject to those events, would fall precisely in that manner.

    Buildings pancake all over the world. The technical term is ‘Progressive Collapse’. There is no miracle to it. A small earthquake is enough under the right conditions. I’ve seen jack-failures during a renovation cause it.

    That has nothing to do with the pseudoscientific nonsense that the smaller buildings would not collapse from even minor damage associated with the event.

    All of this has to do with precisely what I stated: there is a very, very, very high correlation with affinity to conspiracy theories, affinity to addiction, affinity for schizotypal behavior and though, and affinity to ‘fight’ dunning kruger effects to preserve self-imaage and self confidence given the ‘continuous failure of cognition’ the individuals of these disabilities demonstrate.

    In other words, affinity for conspiracies is a form of animism or anthropomorphism where very simple people preserve some semblance of control over their minds and emotions given continuous falsification of their control of their minds, and emotions in reality.

    In fact, that might be the perfect description of a diagnosis of schizotypal behavior, and the causes of the behavior we see manifest in such people.

    “grasping at straws we can understand’ is a phenomenon universal to all people who lack sufficient intelligence to understand and change, a status quo or condition that they find unacceptable.

    Stupid can’t tolerate being stupid so stupid is drawn to convictions that justify stupid’s emotional frustration. The fact that one chooses something absurd to vent one’s frustration against is demonstration of one’s stupidity.

    Or better said, we can measure intelligence of the frustrated by the category of problem they demonize.

    That should tell you everything you need to know about the psychology of different ‘interest groups’ in across every dimension of the political and moral spectrum.

    Smart does as smart does, and stupid does as stupid does.

    Hence why I argue that all people are merely participants in a conspiracy of common interests between their genes. The rest is all theatre of avoidance, acceptance, persuasion and deceit.

    Truth hurts all of us.

    BUDDHISM(MIND) VS STOICISM(ACTION)

    —“Hey Curt, a friend and I were just discussing Stoicism and Buddhism. I remember you talked about Yin-Yang being a prison, could you elaborate?”— A Friend.

    What is the evolutionary difference between harmony(balance) and competition?

    What is the difference between buddhism and stoicism?

    –“Buddhism seeks Harmony (which is stagnant), while Stoicism seeks competition (which is innovative)?”—

    There you go. And what happened to stoic (western) versus buddhist (eastern) societies?

    Harmony is another word for tolerance of one another, non-disruption of the status quo, and Submission to authority.

    Competition is another word for tolerance of one another, disruption of the status quo, and non-submission to authority.

    By Nick Zeto:

    —“The way in which I differentiated the two is through different means of describing transcendence. One can transcend the mind beyond the material and come to tolerate their environment, or one can transcend the material beyond the mind and come to dominate their environment. Tolerate or dominate.Do you accept that the environment is harsh and tolerate it, or do you find means of overcoming the harshness? Toleration and submission involve no calculation or calls to action.”—

    Which model will calculate innovation and therefore produce a condition of prosperity faster? Which will preserve a status quo that is ‘adequate’ for a longer period of time?

    The problem is that while we need to be able to, and we can, switch governments under rule of law between fascism, liberalism, and progressivism as our competitors (conditions) allow us, we cannot change ritualistic disciplines habituated in the people.

    For this reason, it is optimum to teach people stoicism and to organize by rule of law, the merely switching the means by which we produce and distribute commons (government) rather than to rely on buddhism and entrench a people in a condition.

    NOTE: my opinion on this matter is gender specific. Women have much harder problem with mindfulness than do men and learning to quiet rather than direct that mind is to their advantage. Women are more problematic in gossip. Men are more problematic in action. Women do not as much need a mind directed as much as quieted. Men do not need a mind so much quieted as directed. My central problem with buddhism is that it needs to be restated and possibly incorporated into Stoicism and then individuals can ‘swing’ mental quietude vs mental discipline as suits their genetic predispositions.

    The Virtues that are not false, cause transcendence, not acquiescence.

    If you claim a false virtue you just claim that you are weak – You don’t claim a virtue.

    So don’t.

    Just state that you can only transcend so far, because you are weak.

    Weakness is only a problem if you prohibit the transcendence of others.

    If you do so, then you are also a parasite, and therefore not virtuous.

    It’s not complicated.

    YOU ARE WEAK

    The Romantic. The Intuitive. The Spiritual. The Occult.

    Just be honest. You’re a woman. And you need the comforting lies of a woman.

    Because you aren’t sovereign. You aren’t a man. You haven’t transcended.

    You can’t rely on reason alone.

    There is only one good. Transcendence.

    The rest is just useful or not, preferable or not. true or false.

    THE VIA-POSITIVA OF TRANSCENDENCE

    Athens/Sparta against Hittites/Persia, Greece/Rome against Persia/Egypt/Levant/Celtica, Britain/Germany against the world.

    Heroism needs an enemy.

    Once you win against the enemy the army and navy turn on each other to preserve their reason for existence.

    The enemy is the dark forces of ignorance, time, regression to the mean, and the hostility of the universe to our existence.

    A set of problems that can only be transcended, by hour human transcendence.

    And a transcendence that can only be achieved by western civilization.

    Why? Because only the west defeats others by the production of commons the most important of which is Truth.

    Heroic Truth is enough, because the war against the universe is enough.
