You know, our culture, our protestant culture, tells you to suppress all shortcuts and produce for yourself and the group. That is a very hard norm to create, and a very easy norm to undermine.
If you sell ‘you can cheat this way’ you can make a profit at it.
They did.

NEXT PROBLEM TO SOLVE: TABLE OF COMPARATIVE TRUTH
So, now I have to work on comparative “truth” in each civilization, by revisiting huntington and Fukuyama. But today, I’m spending the day with Macdonald again. Because while he has outlined the jewish strategy, I still must outline the anglo, german, and maybe islamic and Chinese strategies. I’d originally intended to tell the tale of the English, German and Jewish ‘cities’ but maybe I have to broaden it?
Or do I just focus on the three important to the west, and give light treatment to the others. Strangely, because I studied chinese history in College, and because its an almost entirely military culture, I understand the Chinese strategy pretty clearly. Islam is fairly easy because it consists so thoroughly of a limited set of principles, tribalism, and inbreeding. I guess, german is the most simple. Because duty is not a hard concept to get across. It’s also martial.

NOBILITY
—“If you had any knowledge of the noble things of life, you would refrain from coveting others’ possessions; but for me to die for Greece is better than to be the sole ruler over the people of my race.”—Leonidas
The purpose of aristocracy is for all, to deny any and all, power and authority over any and all.

[W]ell, I guess I’m not done. Macdonald and Duchesne explain what happened, who did it, and how they did it, even why they did it. But neither of them explain why we were vulnerable to it, other than we are less group-ish than other peoples with higher trust, (probably because of outbreeding.) So our outbreeding created trust, which allowed us to be invaded by people who were not honest, did not practice trust, practiced parasitism, In other words, is an aggressive parasitic people more successful than a high trust outbred productive people? Yes?

[T]he reason you are conquered is that you are weak enough to be. Why are you weak enough to be conquered? Fix what is wrong with your civilization, rather than criticize your attacker. Understand why you are weak enough to be attacked. We failed because we are altruistic. Not entirely, but more than anyone else. Our high trust has a down side. And we just experienced a century of it.

Northern European society rewarded producers and punished everyone else. We used high trust, and high suppression of free riding to force everyone into the market productivity.
That is a very inhospitable place for free riders and parasites and the unproductive.
How do the unproductive make room for themselves in a productive society?

COSMOPOLITAN LIBERTINISM: “YET ANOTHER GOD THAT FAILED”
Misesian / Rothbardian / Hoppeian attempt to capture the credibility of classical liberal Austrianism by means of Cosmopolitan critique. Instead, it was just another pseudoscientific attack on western civilization. Just like Marx, Freud, Frankfurt, and Postmoderns: a sustained attack on the ethic of the west: aristocratic egalitarianism. And we were fooled into thinking that it was from just the socialist direction. It wasn’t. It was from the socialists, the libertarians, and the neocons. From every angle of the political spectrum
We have been fighting the wrong battle. There are no answers there.
Time to fight for civilization.
For a return to truth, merit, honor.
Aristocracy.
