  • The Drag on Civilization by Non-Western Sense Making

    Apr 22, 2020, 10:38 AM

    —“Given the trajectory western civilization was on over the last century or two, we should’ve been building stuff on the moon, making and using powered exoskeletons, and using quantum computing by now. But instead here we are having to care for those who haven’t so much as invented a wheel in 1500 years, placating to the whims of our weakest willed and minded, and letting perversion run wild. This time we’ll make sure it changes for good, like John Mark says in some of his videos, our children will never have to fight this fight ever again.”—Shane Walter  

    —“We spent too much time in the last century averaging for lowest common denominator.”—Robert Danis

  • The Propertarian Community Has Become Its Own Commons

    Apr 22, 2020, 12:40 PM by JWarren Prescott The propertarian circle is a eclectic collection of great people who share a common interest in preserving the elements of civilization that precisely maintain that civilization. Namely, western civilization. The propertarian community has become its own commons that is revered by all – even if they either don’t fully understand all the elements, logic or constructs or even if they might disagree – it is still respected. This is our commons – some are hard at work plowing new areas for our commons and some are happy basking in the grass for the time being. It doesn’t matter, at some point, all of us will be needed to defend it – not just this intellectual commons, but the very civilization in which we talk about saving. So if you have come to the commons to find relief from the soul-destroying, lying pilpul-laden post-modernist hellscape, rest up and find the ongoing conversation restorative. If you are already on the frontlines of the battlefield, you will find allies here, and if you are the curious intellectual, it will be the most stimulating as your core premises are challenged and exercised in both pleasurable and uncomfortable ways.

  • Our Gods

    Apr 24, 2020, 11:23 AM Of course. Don’t be ridiculous. Because Tyr(Tiwas,Zeus) was the god of our people. Odin the god of the aristocracy, Thor(Mars) the Militia (Men). And the Epic Cycle our Mythos. Sol invictus-Mithras didn’t have time to coalesce. Jesus evolved as the god of the weak, slaves, women, and children. Nature’s spirits and ancestors were a hearth religion, our sky-god paganism a social religion, and Christianity was a political religion.

  • The Dependence on Land and The Variation in Group Strategies

    Apr 24, 2020, 12:15 PM

    –“I was working the rather large winter garden this afternoon I have planted with my father. Thinking about the respective Peloponnesian and Delian strategies. It got me thinking about two things. Agricultural productivity / output and the concurrent effervescence of commercial activity, economic growth, and thus civilisational expansion (consider this also in a Rome vs Carthage context too). The second angle was the context of one’s own personal independence and self-sovereignty, in this sense as a landowner, either large or small scale. Be it in terms of food supply, land as a hold of value, and also as an individual / family / community area with which to defend one’s own assets. Whilst Australia and America have different cultures and expressions of “homesteading” there are some similarities too, you might call it a “dying frontier of the self-owned man”. Do you have any pointers or suggestions from a Propertarian standpoint?”— A Friend

    Yes, you have the correct insight, that I would translate as “If a man is dependent upon the land, he intuits others are also dependent upon the land, and that he cannot defend his land nor can others without collective defense of land, and collective defense by almost everyone. This is the opposite of migratory pastoralists and disaporic traders (Carthage), or diasporic usurers (Jews), or diasporic thieves(gypsies), or diasporic raiders(muslims), diasporic rent seekers(russians, mongols), but not the same as settled(germans, spartans) or diasporic producers (europeans, chinese – and what should have been hindus). That is because we specialize in different strategies and our value of territory, built capital, institutional, and cultural commons, differs by where our revenue comes from and the composition of our ‘armies’ and the strategy that these men use for control of predation (raiding), parasitism (extractive rule, usury, theft), or domestication (productive rule, settlement, common capital production.)

    That’s false. The aristotelian restoration re-harmonized law and the state, with learning. Our law has remained constant for four thousand years. Our religions have changed from IE to semitic, to platonic, to protestant, to aristotelian. Same for china korea japan.
