    THE DISTILLATION OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION

    If you would be sovereign, you must fight.

    If you would be sovereign and win, you must equally confederate.

    If you would be sovereign and confederate, you must equally compromise.

    If you would be sovereign and equally compromise, you must equally forgo opportunities for gain at another’s loss.

    If you would be sovereign and equally forgo equal opportunities to gain at another’s loss, your actions are limited to those that are productive, fully informed, warrantied, and voluntary, and limited to productive externalities.

    If you limit your actions to those, then the ONLY possible rule is rule by Common, judge-discovered, Natural Law of Non Imposition of Costs, and therefore, voluntary markets in everything: association, cooperation, reproduction, production, production of commons, production of dispute resolution, production of institutions, productions of monuments, production of war, productions of generations,

    This is Western Civilization: the choice of Sovereignty once made produces all that we have done. Small things in large numbers have vast consequences.

    If you would be Sovereign, and reap the benefits of Sovereignty, you must fight – fight to deny others all possible alternatives.

    If you will not fight you cannot be sovereign.

    You may beg the Sovereigns for commercial liberty, or physical freedom, or charity, in exchange for compensation. But you may never be in fact sovereign.

  • Go Ahead and Extrapolate This so I Don”t Have To…

    (…let a thousand nations bloom) (small groups speciate) (we want to speciate… ) —“Well Darwin believed that evolution was driven by selection. That’s essentially Darwin’s contribution. And it’s true for big populations, but it has limits. The limits are you need big populations in order for selection to be dominant. If you have small populations, then random drift is actually more important than selection. That’s the Kimura theory. Kimura called it the neutral theory of evolution and he wrote a book about it which was widely ignored by all the orthodox biologists. But I think he was right. And in fact, it happens that small populations are very important in evolution. In fact, you have to have a small population to start a new species, almost by definition. So small populations have a controlling effect on starting new species and also in the extension of old species. So this neutral regime where the selection is not important may, in fact, be the real driving force of evolution when you come to a new species. And of course, if that’s true, it changes the picture in many ways.”— Freeman Dyson

  • Why Was the Empire Lost?

    Well, it was lost by fighting a pair of unnecessary wars in which Germany was in the right, and thereby hollowing out Europe of it’s ancient cultural origins. Doing so collapsed the empire. And the people did not immediately replace a global imperial government with a local national one. As such Britain as much as France, drove marxist imperialism just as hard as the soviets. The problem was not gutting the government OR working with the USA to restore the British empire. One or the other. But in typical British fashion, just as the french lost their civilization at the loss of the monarchy, just as the Spanish civilization died at their loss of empire, and British lost theirs – and became as useless as the french and Spanish. Between 1830 and 1914 the British broke from germanic civilization and became Diasporics in every possible sense.

  • Switzerland = Templars

    —“Friendly reminder that the Swiss Confederacy was founded on August 1st 1291, just two months after the fall of the last Templar stronghold of Acres in the last crusade in the Holy Land… Coincidence? I think not.”—Alexander Nikolaos Arvanitis

  • Silly old men try to restore the past.

    —“A doctrine of the state can only propose values to test the elective affinities and the dominant or latent vocations of a nation. If a people cannot or does not want to acknowledge the values that we have called ‘traditional’, and which define a true Right, it deserves to be left to itself. At most, we can point out to it the illusions and suggestions of which it has been or is the victim, which are due to a general action which has often been systematically organised, and to regressive processes. If not even this leads to a sensible result, this people will suffer the fate that it has created, by making use of its ‘liberty’.​” ― Julius Evola I mean, this is a great example. Define “true right”, Tradition and Traditional. And do so in a way that does not require men of knowledge of the universe to repeat sophisms or submit to fairy stories. We cannot uninvent knowledge of the world that gives us our dominion over it and return to prior states of ignorance. We must create prior VALUE SYSTEMS out of new language, not old. Silly old men try to restore the past. Those of us with some teaspoon of wisdom merely take lessons of past and present and propose solutions to old problems in the framing of the present.
