    STATUS PRODUCTION IN THE DEFLATIONARY SOCIETY

    (important piece)(new insight by Saini)

    Ricky Saini: —“Deconflation allows more status seekers to acquire status productively – as opposed to a monopoly of status acquired by a specific elite group of individuals that hoards it over everyone else.”—

    In a conflationary society one group attempts to hold all the status.

    In a deflationary society, we find elites in all methods of coercion (Martial/Paternal:Force/Threat, Economic/Brotherly: Remuneration/Payment, and Priestly/Maternal:Gossip/Advocacy-Shame), plus one method of decidability: the Judiciary, and one ‘Craftsmanly’ Art, Science, Engineering, Craftsmanship. and one familial: Paternal, Maternal, Number of Children, Manners/Culture.

    A deflationary society provides many more opportunities for high status by many other means, and therefore more incentive for personal achievement by social ‘competition’. There is more room for winners by moral means.

    Grades and Age demonstrate only that one is not terribly defective.

    The major variations between groups and classes are (a) rate of maturity, (b) depth of sexual maturity (aggression, degree of success at pedomorphic reproduction), and (c) genetic quality (physical symmetry/health, impulsivity, conscientiousness, intelligence, gender symmetry. All of which can most easily be categorized under successful pedomorphic reproduction.

    Childhood is an artificial modern construct for the purpose of adding women to the workforce for the purpose of increasing tax revenues. This has culminated in the current generation as ‘infantilization’ of the millennials. however, a human being does not really ‘mature’ until past his or her prime mating years (25). Conversely, a human being can mentally mature in mid teens with sufficient responsibilities (female reproduction, male military service, and work).

    Women mature faster than men – men specialize and take longer.

    Blacks faster than middle easterners, faster than mediterraneans, faster than europeans, faster than east asians. Hence testosterone differences.

    The problem? Not enough stressors.

    INTERESTING IDEA: EAST VS WEST CLASS INTERESTS?

    Siraaj Khandkar

    —“Your distinction of two highest tiers is interesting. I always wondered what are the main differences that influenced developments of Western and Eastern Europe (besides geography-necessitated strategies) and one of the things seems to be that Russian highest classes peak at ideas (your lower upper) and rarely prioritize entrepreneurship (this is how I understand your “Power, Associations, Opportunities”).”—

    Curt Doolittle

    ^^^ correct. Although I had not considered that, you’re right. Western judiciary and laws provide protections such that the entrepreneurial class can operate fairly freely without fear of predation by the state. (but omg if you do anything bad the state will eat you in public one bite at a time, to make an example of you.) Russian thinkers are deep and creative. But the entrepreneurial class (a dozen of whom I’ve met) live in relative fear OR evolve into oligarchs that the government fears.

    I also think that the history of Boyars as predators and soviets, then gangsters, and oligarchs have left Russians exhausted and suspecious. Germanic europeans did not have this problem. The princedom’s competed for talent. American europeans didn’t have it at all since we never have had a ‘noble’ class other than the entrepreneurial class we call the ‘Puritans’/Calvinists.

    Americans have a serious problem with our big financial institutions, but any INDIVIDUAL in them is easy to take down. We are so dependent upon those financial institutions, just as Russians are dependent upon their resource institutions.

    I’ve been sort of back and forth on the whole putin vs oligarchs thing, but we need to do a similar thing here in the west. Because the Soros’ and Rothchilds and various large financial institutions do what the oligarchs have done, but just use more sophisticated means of doing it. But our people are just as pissed off. They just are in the condition of Russia in the 1990’s so they aren’t ready to kill people yet. (But we’re getting there.)

    I think what differs between east and west europe is that the highest power in the west are the judges, and the highest power in the east are the rulers. And that’s probably been an historical truth since the dawn of our civilizations. In america even more so than in europe. Our supreme court at least until recently, and our constitution, at least until recently, were considered ‘sacred’. And in western history kings have had a very difficult time usurping the common law. In english history it’s a good way for a king to get killed.

    ….genetic class (physical symmetry, health, intelligence etc)

    ….reproductive class (reproductive desirability)

    ….economic class (economic achievement)

    ….political class (fame: entertainment / political achievement)

    The effects of each class are cumulative.

    It’s pretty scary how accurate this measure is.

    I don’t weight economic or political at all – they’re outliers.

    If you want to create a simulation you start with this model and build out.

    One of the criticisms of fiat currency and manipulation of the money supply, is that it damages the ability to form aristocratic families by means of saving, and drives all great families out of saving and production into financialization.

    ——- via Nick Zito ———

    Dan Kanivas, admirer of the millionaire next door

    Written Nov 10, 2015

    A recent article written by advisors to wealthy families discusses some of the common ways that family wealth is destroyed over multiple generations, as well as techniques to help prevent the destruction of family wealth over time:

    Wealth management usually comes in two parts: financial planning to increase and manage your wealth, and estate planning to protect and pass the wealth along to heirs with as few taxes as possible. Unfortunately, 70% of family wealth is destroyed by the second generation, and family unity is destroyed right along with the wealth. After three generations, the loss of wealth exceeds 90%.

    Some families, however, thwart lost fortunes and family dysfunction by adding a third component to their wealth management strategy: They prepare their heirs to receive an intellectual inheritance as well as a financial inheritance. When heirs are brought into a family’s stories, traditions, and values, they can better relate to their past and become better stewards of the family’s capital.

    The “shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations” saying is so true that nearly every culture on the planet has some version of it, including a 2,000-year-old Chinese proverb. It says the first generation works hard to create a fortune; the second generation enjoys the spoils of that fortune, substituting entertainment for hard work; and the third generation, with no role model to follow, squanders what remains of the fortune. Their children have to start all over again.

    What is to blame for the destruction of wealth, and why do so many families experience it? The culprit is not poor investment strategy, nor should people be quick to blame economic downturns or bad markets.

    Roy Williams and Vic Preisser, authors of Preparing Heirs: Five Steps to a Successful Transition of Family Wealth and Values, collected data from 3,250 families who had lost their wealth. Less than 3% said poor planning and investments caused their reversal of fortune. Instead, 25% said heirs were unprepared, and 60% fingered lack of communication and trust in the family.

    The consequences of neglecting intellectual legacy can be seen in the families who ignored it, such as William Henry Vanderbilt’s heirs. Their fortunes could be worth over $300 billion in today’s dollars. However, by 1973, in just two generations, not a single heir was even a millionaire.

  • wow. no one ever called us marxists before. lol Fascists, yes. Marxists no. 1) y

    wow. no one ever called us marxists before. lol Fascists, yes. Marxists no.

    1) you will find that the OP is historically correct.

    you are projecting your ideology into an historical statement.

    while the law recognizes property, it also recognizes commons.

    the expansion of private property as a right rather than as a privilege (Freemen vs Slaves) evolved as the OP suggests.

    2) Pure jewish bullshit: that society self organizes into peaceful cooperation. When society self organizes into peaceful cooperation in an equilibrium with aggression in all forms: criminal, unethical, and immoral. And that the common law and religion both evolved for the single purpose of suppressing retaliation cycles by providing the neutrality of a third party insurer that proxied enforcement, as populations increased, and familial and tribal differences needed to be neutralized.

    3) –“I wouldn’t require a large group”–

    (a) you are irrelevant. Given that the high trust society is unique to west, and particularly to the north west (because of heavy crime enforcement, manorialism, earlier selection pressures), the evidence is that large enough groups cannot form reliably enough to suppress criminal, unethical, and immoral behavior. In fact it appears that the participation of nearly the entire community is required. but without both law and specialized enforcement, no condition of subsidy, freedom, or liberty can be constructed (logically and empirically). (b)You cannot reliably self-report such a thing. If you hold the positions you do it’s implied you would be lest trustworthy in matters of risk, and more likely to free ride upon commons (which is really what you’re advocating, because that is what jewish libertinism advocates: separatism as a means of free riding upon the commons.)

    4) —“sovereign group”—

    This is a grammatical error you are nitpicking. But yes, a group of soverigns is possible while a sovereign group is logically impossible. However, this grammatical error aside the rest of the argument stands. A group of sovereigns in the west were responsible for the formation of polities that led to high trust polities.

    5) –“hierarchies”–

    Only a liar or a fool conflates the demonstrably universally existential hierarchy of classes and the individuals within classes with the rule of law (equality under the law). In all aspects of life: genetic, associative, reproductive (mating), productive (business), social, and political, these hierarchies are demonstrated without exception – and there is precious little rotation in and out of underclass, working class, and middle class, with most of the upper classes rotating in and out of the middle class as exceptions. Those families that maintain aristocracy over many generations do so through reproductive selection as a means of preservation of assets.

    6) —“These are actions and not necessarily designated groups.”—

    Now you are just moving from grammatical nits to outright lies. Coups are possible by police and military, and resistance to revolution and coup is not possible without the assistance of police and military. Ergo, police and military rule. They, and we, profit most from the promise of rapid and thorough action, without having to ever act.

    7) —“violence”—

    Violence in and of itself is a neutral asset. That asset can be put to moral or immoral ends. Just as wealth is a neutral asset. It can be put to moral or immoral ends. Just as knowledge is a neutral asset, it can be put to moral or immoral ends. For example, if we are successful in defending the informational commons just as we have been successful in the suppression of murder, harm, theft, fraud, and conspiracy, then we would greatly reduce the number of (stupid, immoral) bad ideas that are commonly propagated – like marxist socialism, straussian neoconservatism, and rothbardian libertinism.

    The rest of your responses above is just more dishonesty. Which is what we expect from dishonest people. We know now that some groups are predisposed to lying the same way that women are predisposed to lying ‘in their way’, and for the same reason: they have, through group selection, inverted the reproductive strategies of the genders.

    Cheers

    —“The concept of individual property rights was constructed by the bourgeoisie/organizing-class as justification for permission from monarchs to seek opportunities (initially at the great expense of the aristocracy, and later at the expense of the commons).

    The concept of human rights was constructed (post-war) as marketing to the decolonized ‘developing world,’ as a means of seeking allies against the threat of communism.

    The problem, in both cases, is that we believe our own propaganda.”—James Augustus Berens

    You know (((Their))) elites have these silly ideas that (1) they obtain their status out of merit rather than exploitation through parasitism of our high trust order; (2) that they will eventually win, rather than that we have merely been patient with them; (3) we cannot easily alter the conditions under which their exploitation of the high trust order depends, and (4) that they are superior in toto rather than superior in tactic under favorable conditions that they are themselves unable to create. (5) that they can obtain and hold the loyalty or interests of the underclasses without possessing a warrior class of their own.
