    West has been a market between three Military, Law(Markets), Faith and they attacked all three. Everyone thinks their ‘discipline’ was the core of european civ, but it was the balance of powers between them.

    Again, studying medieval and ancient world’s wear and tear, we trade the health, fitness and INJURIES of hunter gatherers for the wear, and tear, of agrarianism and manual labor. Physical labor, poor bodily maintenance, and lack of social membership are recipes for pain. https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1214495398229946368

    Instead, decimate Iranian military capacity, and economy, pull in competing middle eastern states, and let islamic civilization slowly modernize over generations, and USA can leave. Otherwise another world war and 100’s of millions dead.

    This is how grownups see the world.

    all civilizations collapse when the system of measurement fails and they resort to moralizing. Both sun tzu and machiavelli are teaching us the same lesson: the empirical is true, and moral. Moralizing is simply ignoring information and wishful thinking and that’s immoral.

    WHERE DO TRADITIONS AND NORMS ORIGINATE?

    Every group has a competitive (evolutionary) strategy at its formation. We develop narratives (excuses) and rules to persist that strategy, while maintaining some form of reciprocity. Once entrenched these are almost impossible to change.

    There are a limited number of properties to these strategies. I haven’t disambiguated them yet, but at the general level they’re the nature of the world, the nature of man, the ‘right’ organization of the hierarchies to conduct and persist that strategy, and ‘right action’ within it. The norms and language vary according to the stage of development and long term demands.

    These rules allow us to habituate, predict, and calculate our actions giving us the perception of the constancy of the universe by minimizing the complexity of our cognitive costs.

    We are superpredators after all, and it’s amazing that we can cooperate in such vast numbers.

    Americans do not feel need to deny an Honor culture their ‘honor’. They are not Western. These things are as important to them as Truth is to us. We can undrestand honor (face before truth) much more easily than they can understand our truth before face.
