    1) A ‘church’ (institution) is a good thing. Christianity reduced to five principles is the optimum game strategy (cooperation). Mindfulness is better taught by stoic means. Christianity in abrahamic prose is a bad thing. Incentives can cause the church to self correct (adapt).

    YES, PROPERTARIANISM SOLVES THE SUSTAINABILITY PROBLEM.

    —-“I just realized that Propertarianism solves the problem of sustainability. A propertarian society would prevent over-consumption of resources since to do so would be parasitic upon future generations (and/or on neighbouring states/groups). You’ve done it. Solved a major problem in ecology.”— Alba Rising

    The answer can, in part, be explained by how the low intelligent play the prisoner’s dilemma game compared with the highly intelligent. The research can be found here:

    https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/55383/1/MPRA_paper_55383.pdf

    The study found that

    —‘…it is cognitively demanding to sustain cooperation in a ten-round repeated prisoner’s dilemma. … In our experiment, as in the twin study of Segal and Hershberger (1999), pairs of players with higher cognitive ability are substantially better at cooperating. Further, we find that is the cognitive ability of a pair of players, and not the ability of an individual player, that predicts cooperation.’—

    High IQ leads to higher rates of co-operation. Trust is both a consequence of and necessity for long term co-operation or multi-co-operations.

    And this gets to the crux of why Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s discussion of IQ is so fundamentally flawed. It isn’t about the individual – it is about the group.

    To paraphrase Clinton, ‘it’s the group stupid!’

  • The Secret to Teaching Men: Exhaustive King of The Hill.

    [T]eaching men is really easy: Bait them into dominance play. Just as exhaustive forgiveness in tit-for-tat is the optimum cooperative strategy, exhaustive baiting for dominance play is the optimum MALE cooperative strategy. WTF do you think shit-talking amounts to? Are you fking thick? (See what I did there?) Set up King of the Hill games where ANY forward progress gets the men recognition. Do not criticize failure, only cowardice, attention seeking, or time wasting. If you are too predictable you will ruin the game. You must present a variety of challenges. We cannot feel ‘good’ about learning by conformity the way girls and women do. We must play at fighting or it’s not worth our time.

    There is no group strategy superior to ethnonationalism. None. Whether you like it or agree with pursuing it or not the fact remains that it is the optimum group strategy by every possible measure.

    The problem is that the people and process he ridicules is exactly what makes it possible for the BODY OF PEOPLE TOGETHER to improve their quality of cooperation and therefore returns on the private and common investments. (again. I don’t make mistakes. It’s my job.)

    there is a very simple reason why large companies exist in some countries and not in other countries. There is a reason for high trust polities and low trust polities. There is a reason for heroic ethics, and submissive ethics.

    by Vengefül Bobmoran

    Approach -> …..Doesn’t scale beyond

    =========================

    Socialism -> …. Family

    Democracy ->.. Neighborhood

    Civility -> ……… Polity

    One level higher :

    =============

    Empathy -> Race / Ethnic group

    Trying to deduce others’ feelings/intentions by using your own thought process only gives reliable results if the thought processes are similar.

    “They would never lie to us…” <— projection : I would never lie to them.

    Interestingly, we can also use those as a confirmation tests. If socialism doesn’t work, your family boundaries are wrong. If civility doesn’t work, the polity boundaries are wrong, etc.
