  • Women’s Movement for Natural Law

    Feb 7, 2020, 9:49 AM

    —I think it’s better for women to create solidarity with women on ending the program of undermining that women were baited into with the false promise of equality rather than the promise of improving our compatibility under change in the division of labor made possible by the industrial and technological and informational revolutions. I think if you ask women to join to help build this ‘movement’ of getting past GSRRM and ending undermining, thereby restoring compatibility, cooperation, in a division of perceptual, cognitive, and physical labor that this will be a mission women will be attracted to, because it will make women better women with regard to OTHER WOMEN as well as with regard to mates children – and even other men. Men had to learn not to physically retaliate. Law is a vehicle for ending retaliation cycles (feuds). Women have not had the political, economic, or social opportunity to develop female traditions, so that women learn not to SOCIALLY and PSYCHOLOGICALLY retaliate and end women’s retaliation cycles (feuds).—

    We aren’t equal. Genders, Maturity, Generations, Classes, Ethnicities, Nations, Civilizations, or Races. Under natural law of reciprocity and division of labor we are compatible despite all those inequalities. End retaliation cycles by sticking to reciprocity.

  • Building Community

    Feb 7, 2020, 10:05 AM I think you should imitate bill’s technique. We use my feed to identify candidates that you then recruit. After a while you will be able to recruit your own people without my feed. Then once you have ‘got the message down’ enough, make a few dozen videos (it takes that many) and recruit by video. This creates a community. We are building a network of communities of common interest. All built on P but addressing the needs or wants of people living lives with different contexts and therefore different demands from P. Video > Public Feed > Private Group that meets regularly to discuss a topic in the king of the hill(male) or socrates cafe(female) model > ‘a leadership team’ that keeps track of the development of the group and tries to move the group along > “A Mission” > Courseware. Do not try to make money. It doesn’t work.

    —“Homogeny is closer to equality, but absolute equality only exists as entropy(devolution). What we want is an equilibrium where benefits of division of labor most outweigh the costs of diverging interests.”—Martin Štěpán

    (This is an example why I spent years at this task. To make new leadership for a new world. And look at these guys. Something happened. A new critical mass. It’s beautiful.)

  • The Full Circle of Currency

    Feb 24, 2020, 10:49 AM

    • by Bill Joslin –

    From what i understand currency pertained to debt tracking before it was used for trade. (in group tally of debts within small communities that distributed resources and only engaged in formal trade across groups)(greaber’s Debt) (oddly we’ve come full circle with currency created when debts are issued) -by Paul Franklin – Coinage, then, might have been an attempt to create professional armies to avoid paying them through plunder? Philanthropic. Paper money, according to Ezra Pound, was ‘philanthropic’ invention of a Chinese Emperor in a drought, issued to the starving illiterate peasants that they might buy enough of the grain they grew from the Barons who kept it, and not die. The barons redeem the paper for the promise of gold declared for their presentation before the Emperor. Promise? Is this the same post? One message I have for Christians, one thing that I can tell you with the same certainty I can predict tomorrow’s sunrise will occur – Christ is definitely not coming. No point in waiting for that promise to be fulfilled. Although the implication is therefore that he must already be here?

  • Cultural Differences in Negotiation Given Differences in Time Frame, Risk, Trust and Dominance Hierarchy

    I follow Cheney (specialists) for international negotiation, and then keep up with the research, but nothing has changed since I first started in the80’s other than indian and chinese awareness of american markets and styles. IMPORTANT: The west uses the OODA loop. that is our group strategy. Always has been. Initiative and manuever and speed. This is completely antithetical to every other civilization. Why? Because it requires a lot of trust, trustworthiness, weakens the hierarchy and localizes credit for success in the individual. We are the only people who see time as a risk. It took me a long time to ‘develop patience’ in negotiations. It took me longer to learn to build relationships rather than incentives – because it’s irrational. (to me) lol.
