    —“A world without shame is a world without norms. A world without norms is a world without trust. Shame is simply the wall around social trust.” —James Fox Higgins

    But for what? Shame as a vehicle for parasitism, or shame as a vehicle to suppress parasites?

  • The left is a herd (monopoly)

    October 20th, 2018 11:25 AM NPC’S AND THE RIGHT [L]ook, the left is a herd (monopoly), the right a collection of packs (market). We can’t script like NPC’s do because we have no herds. We have a thousand packs. Each pack uses its own language. That’s why NPC’s are so hysterical to us: we debate between our packs – we use different arguments values, terms. NPC’s dont. The herd follows scripts. That’s what makes it a herd.

  • Reaping the Extremist Fruits of The Middle’s Tolerance

    October 20th, 2018 8:33 AM REAPING THE EXTREMIST FRUITS OF THE MIDDLE’S TOLERANCE by John Mark (cd: this is brilliant) [W]hat these “We can all come together” people don’t understand is that the most intolerant group (the group most willing to punish anyone who deviates from their agenda) wins. Thus the middle groups, continuing their attempt at the failed strategy of tolerance, allow the totally intolerant far left progressive activists to take more and more power, while the only group smart enough to counter them with total intolerance in return is the hard right. The “exhausted majority” is reaping the fruit of their own

    NPC’S AND THE RIGHT

    Look, the left is a herd (monopoly), the right a collection of packs (market). We can’t script like NPC’s do because we have no herds. We have a thousand packs. Each pack uses its own language. That’s why NPC’s are so hysterical to us: we debate between our packs – we use different arguments values, terms. NPC’s dont. The herd follows scripts.

    That’s what makes it a herd.

    IMO: this is because we have failed to produce a value neutral science (vocabulary) of cooperation, and freud, boaz and marx dug a rhetorical hole we haven’t (yet) dug out of.

  • Is the Alt Right Socialist?

    October 19th, 2018 9:44 AM IS THE ALT RIGHT SOCIALIST? (A Response to Jeff Tucker) 1) The alt right chooses nationalism (the optimum group evolutionary strategy) over globalism (the worst possible group evolutionary strategy for sovereign peoples). 2) The alt right claims (correctly) that (under nationalism) the debate is not between capitalism and socialism since all extant and all SURVIVABLE polities are and must be mixed economies – but between (a) rule of law, vs. arbitrary rule, and (b) unlimited trade that allows costs imposed upon the polity by externality, vs limits to trade that prohibits costs upon the polity by externality. This is because lower prices that are obtained in exchange for the spectrum of losses to capital including human capital are not in fact lower prices, but involuntary transfers by indirection. 3) The alt right claims (correctly) that the returns on Commons (capital accumulation) are higher than the returns on consumption for the purpose of signaling. Libertarians must choose if they are Globalists and Dysgenicists and Destroyers of capital in exchange for consumption, or Nationalists and Eugenicists, and creators of capital by investment in commons. Libertarianism is unmasked: Jewish (rothbardian) Diasporic Globalist Dysgenic Capitalism (capital accumulation in separatists), or European Nationalist Eugenic, Mixed Economy (capital accumulation in commons). The west outpaced the rest by the simple but profoundly expensive strategy of producing commons, including the commons of trust, truth, rule of law, reciprocity, and the suppression of ir-reciprocity by externality, thereby creating a condition of ‘morality’. There is a reason why large companies are in protestant (Hajnal Line) states: trust. There is a reason low trust polities do not produce large companies.
