  • On the Interpretation of Art, Literature, and Myth

    ON THE INTERPRETATION OF ART, LITERATURE AND MYTH. (My formal training is in art criticism, and my first philosophical work was on aesthetics – and I can criticize all art from all cultures at every single period in human history in detail that is so painful you can’t imagine. If you think I’m annoyingly precise about economics, law, and logic do you think I am less so about Aesthetics? To say one cannot obtain value from something, or one can obtain value from something, is very different from saying that all values one obtains are good, or that objectively better art and literature objectively contain better collections of objects, relations, and values. And that is to say that the consumption of inferior art, literature, and myth, represents a loss of opportunity to consume superior art, literature, and myth, and therefore superior objects, relations, and values.
    Chinese art demonstrates a hatred of man and the human form. Japanese are attempts to circumvent the effeminacy of asian forms. All thier costuming is an attempt to make excuses for their lack and depth of masculine maturity. I mean their is a reason we use half naked super warriors and they use giant robot armor, or dolled-up clothing to make themselves look more substantive. Compare it to German art where everyone has a bloody wound in him, or greek, roman, and european art that lionize the human form, the human mind, and human achievements. The fact that we no longer produce a Howard (who was gay), a Heinlein, Johnny Quest or the first year of Star Trek, or even very good science fiction, is in fact because of the Jewish censorship in hollywood. Sure. (Whether Intentional or cultural or genetic). We still seem to be able to get away with horror although the jewish cultural mafia is working against that also. But the answer is what it is. I do not err. I am not ignorant. And I consider all but the certain portions of Akira and GITM unwatchable. )

    The western group evolutionary strategy can be summed up in one word: INTOLERANCE. We call it ‘sovereignty’ because we’re polite. #NewRight

  • The Causes of the West

    Cool or Cold Climate > Low Population Density > Low Survival of Unfit > Greater Cooperation > Low ‘Clannishness’
    Distributed Production (low returns of hunting, farming, raiding) > Voluntary Militia ( Defense and Raiding/Offense)
    Distributed Production(low returns) > Voluntary Militia + ‘Advanced’ Technology + Maneuver > Military Superiority > Prosperity (defense and offense) > High Risk Heroism as a means of climbing the dominance hierarchy > Broad Opportunity and Incentive.
    Voluntary Militia (Raiding) + Military Superiority > Superior competition > Raiding for Profit > Rule for Profit > Domestication for profit > Production for Profit > Trade for Profit > Innovation for profit > Rents for Profit > Maximization of rents > Fragility to Shocks > Overextension or Inability to adapt. > Defeat.
    Voluntary Militia > Sovereignty(Intolerance)> Natural Law (Reciprocity) > Markets in Everything > Association, cooperation, reproduction, production, commons, polities.
    Markets in Everything > Climbing Dominance Hierarchy> Innovation > Faster Evolution > Division of Labor and Knowledge > Ever-Decreasing Costs > Imitation by Competitors > Co-Evolution.
    Voluntary Militia > Reporting/Testimony > Natural Law (Reciprocity) > Markets for Dispute Resolution > Jury > Reason, Rationalism, Logic, Empiricism, Science, Operationalism, ‘Coincidence-ism’. > Incremental and Rapid Suppression of parasitism > minimization of oppy for rents/frauds > forced maximization of effort and innovation for survival > increasing productivity > increasing competitive ability.
    THE INDUSTRIALIZATION OF MARKETS AND INNOVATION VIA COMMONS RATHER THAN MONOPOLY AND RENTS VIA PRIVATIZATION. Or stated differently: the maximization of production vs the maximization of rents because of constant pressure of coevolution.
    THE RESULT:
    Militia > Sovereignty > Natural Law > Markets In Everything > Transcendence of Man.

  • The Names of Aryanism (Sovereignty)

    THE NAMES OF ARYANISM : THE CAUSE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION Aryanism: (19th Century) Associating the name of set of tribes with their strategy, telling us nothing about the constitution of their strategy.

    The Faustian Spirit: (German Legend ~1400?) A literary allusion to the western predilection for experiment, change, and achievement. Again, this tells us almost nothing about causality, only the description of a few values. Aristocratic Egalitarianism: (Duchesne) A descriptive title of a military and political strategy that states that distributed rule of peers can scale by opening the franchise for participation in rule, and its benefits (property and commissions/taxes) is open to all who will pay for it by demonstrating merit in family, industry, and war. (compare to the chinese method of entering the bureaucracy through examination and the consequences thereof) Aryanism as Markets for Rule: (Duchesne) A descriptive insight expanding upon Aristocratic Egalitarianism, by adding that aryanism spread through the construction of markets for polities. Sovereignty. (Doolittle) A causal description. Since by the demand for sovereignty one can only scale through aristocratic egalitarianism, and one is limited to the resolution of conflicts by natural law of reciprocity, meaning that all association, cooperation, reproduction, production, production of commons, and production of polities must be achieved through sovereign, productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange, free of negative externality. And By the combination of sovereignty, natural law, markets in everything, the need to scale, the provision of scale through the selection for agency, and thereby the incremental domestication of man, transcends man through imitation of sovereignty, reward for agency and sovereignty, and the deprivation and diminution of those who lack agency, cannot act in sovereign fashion, and therefore cannot cooperate via markets, and therefore cannot participate in rule. And that is the CAUSE of western civilization. For a militia of voluntary warriors, desirous of preservation of their sovereignty, Sovereignty is the only political solution, leading to natural law and markets in everything. DO YOU UNDERSTAND YET? ARYANISM: MARKETS IN EVERYTHING? Abrahamism imposes artificial equality where we are only equal if we are slaves. Western religion was originally pagan, meaning a hierarchical family, infinitely extensible, where individuals could find both virtues to imitate, sins to avoid, and advocates for their roles in society at every single level. Abrahamism is not a market strategy for a division of knowledge, labor and advocacy among many small extended clans organized into nation states, but an authoritarian and monopolistic one for the production and maintenance of a despotic empire.
    Aryanism *IS* a market strategy, and our original religion provided us with a both a unifying narrative of an extended family with virtues, sins, roles, and interests, custom tailored gods, demi gods, heroes, and great men to appeal to. Our god was not demanding, or commanding, or even engaged, but provided wisdom, justice, and decisions in exchange for offerings – *a trade*. Do you understand the difference between Aryanism and Semitism yet? Markets and families, vs Monopoly and Empire. No excuses. No more lies. End the pollution of the west. Imitate the only other superior people on this earth, the east asians, and insulate ourselves from the ‘people of the center’ who failed to transcend from beast to man.

  • Via Negativa Goods: Intolerance

    Nick Heywood on Via Negativa: Intolerance We don’t need tolerance in a culturally homogeneous, high trust, society bound by self evident (Common sense) principles. There’s nothing to tolerate! Therefore, “Western Tolerance” is a myth. Used by those seeking to acquire the power, the individual and sovereign once possessed. To surrender their principles, values, sovereignty and culture. This leads to decisional confusion. There are no limits with in which decisions can be made. Confusions reigns! And it worked! By Bob Moran on Via Negativa: Intolerance. Tolerance as a virtue is a deception. Everything we care for we build and protect with INTOLERANCE. If you want your company to succeed, you don’t tolerate incompetence. If you want a degree to be worth something, you don’t tolerate idiots. If you want your family to to be safe, you don’t tolerate a random hobo coming in your house. Intolerance is a tool against entropy; we separate the good from the bad. Remove it, and everything will immediately start to decay and turn to dust.
