    It doesn’t matter to me whether he existed or not. What matters is that exhaustion of direct opportunity for cooperation is *scientifically* the optimum cooperative strategy, and that by limiting it to direct action within the society where one possesses sufficient knowledge to claim he does good without harm caused by externality, is a sufficient method of eliminating virtue spirals and free riding.

    It doesn’t matter to me whether achilles existed or not, it matters to me that the ordeal of the warrior (the necessity of tragedy) is ‘true’.

    It doesn’t matter to me that Alexander was an unpleasant fellow or that Aristotle was wrong in his physics.

    What matters is that (a) claims of wisdom and truth are not conflated, (b) claims of myth and history are not conflated (c) claims of good are in fact good and bad are in fact bad, (d) that every possible fictional statement be eliminated from every narrative including the pseudorational, pseudoscientific, and pseudomythical.

    There are no gods. Jesus was a man. He had a simple message: stop fighting amongst yourselves over trivial things and take care of each other. Instead of trigger happy intolerance of the pastoral and slave peoples who lacked property and ability, take the opposite approach which is the extension of kinship love to non kin. That’s all he says. That’s all that matters. And it’s *a purely scientific statement*.

    The ancient world had freed men from desperate dependence upon land, and allowed them to migrate to cultural capital and material capital so that their *human capital* could be put to use.

    However, this transition required that people abandon the trigger sensitivity of pastoralists living on the margins and instead, ENTER THE MARKET for simple labor, and cooperate with many others that had come from different backgrounds.

    So where the tower of babel presented the problem of language and the need for a common language, when craftsmen were pulled from around the new empire to create a new palace, the single, simple lesson of jesus was to provide a common *moral test* for people.

    This is a primitive attempt to achieve the same effect as natural law.

    The problem was not in this message. It was in EVERYTHING ELSE in christianity: which was weaponized to destroy the empire, and all of western civilization.

    —“Would you agree: reciprocity provides the science of reciprocity, and the “reason” to be moral absent religion is that it’s an effective strategy for group level survival/competition – and effective personally because of the social value of being reciprocal and cost of not being?”—Sean Lester

    Yes. the more moral, the lower friction, the greater risk tolerance, the higher velocity, the greater wealth.

  • SOLUTION: THE TRIPARTITE MARKET FOR ARCHETYPES Alexander(Achilles Warrior), Faus

    SOLUTION: THE TRIPARTITE MARKET FOR ARCHETYPES

    Alexander(Achilles Warrior), Faust(Blacksmith), and Jesus(Slave)

    That’s it you know. Force, Trade, and Gossip: Achilles the Warrior, The Blacksmith, Jesus the Slave. (And for those of you who don’t know, the oldest western fairy tale is the devil and the blacksmith, which you all think of in its modern construction as faust. And it is not western man who is faustian, but the people who have the agency to: the cult of the craftsmen – the middle. Whereas the aristocracy does not learn from the blacksmith, but from Achilles. Whereas the underclass and women do not learn from either but from Jesus. And where all of us can understand each other by understanding each.

    So when I tell people I am restoring markets in everything by ending monopoly in thought, including ideal truth, ideal types, ideal persons, ideal classes, Ideal political orders, and ideal myths, the solution to religion is to find those myths. The myths that we compete with between the upper aristocratic, the middle practitioner, and the lower class serfs and slaves. The myths that represent the power of each: force to push, trade to exchange, and gossip and rallying the resistance.

    So the mythology of ancient west was aristocratic: achilles and the law. The mythology of the near east was that of slaves. The works of the church are those of Jesus. And the works of literature that we call the western canon was written by the middle class and the stoics.

    So we have three class literatures: The aristocracy of force (folly/arrogance), the literature of bargain and cooperation (folly/greed), the literature of submission resistance(folly/pride).

    The only problem is, that our literature of resistance is constructed from lies using the technology of abrahamism: fictionalism.

    Yet, as Jefferson demonstrated, the life, works, and words of jesus – his ordeal – can be separated from the abrahamism that was bounded by it. Philosophy is still bound by Platonism. As is moral and political discourse in general. Which is something I think I have fixed with propertarianism.

    So starting with three archetypes, I’m going to try to produce the same literary analysis that I have produced with the tripartite methods of coercion and the resulting class structures.

    WE DO IT TOGETHER

    You see, the more value I add, the better people and comments I attract, then together the better people and comments we attract, and the more skill we develop in articulating ideas – it’s a self fulfilling strategy.

    And now it is not uncommon at all to quote and promote others many times a day.

    Most people wanna share articles, ridicule, images, and memes.

    We create and distribute arguments and ideas.

    For a high trust population:

    Total minority(non kin) population in single digits. No minority greater than three percent.

    I’m trying to falsify it and I can’t.

    I still find it funny how a single a–hole can ruin your team, and remove all interest and motivation to work. The problem is distinguishing between people who are contributing constructive criticisms for the benefit of the team, and those who are feigning such in order to free ride on that team and obtain their own – and very different – objectives.

    IT’S JUST ‘CAUSE YOU’RE WELL INTENTIONED BUT IGNORANT (REALLY)

    I’m saying that (a) you don’t need to be taught morality because it’s both in your genes and necessary for survival in existential reality – we have tested it. It’s just true. (b) What you have been taught as a means of obtaining mindfulness can be obtained by many ways, and of those ways you have been taught is one of the worst of them (c) one of the means of teaching such is by conflating the obvious and necessary and unavoidable with superstitious falsehood.

    Every religion teaches the same thing using different arguments. These arguments JUSTIFY what exists, by providing a FALSE explanation of what exists in lieu of UNDERSTANDING why it exists.

    They do not CAUSE it to exist whatsoever.

    What they CAN do, whether by Law (understanding of precise measurements), education (knowledge of general rules), or religion (empathy by storytelling) is increase the precision of those measures, rules, and analogies.

    The fact that you have been trained in one religion not ten, and that you understand one moral code not twenty, and understand one legal code, not one hundred, just means you’re ignorant of the alternatives.

    That’s all it means. That’s what the evidence shows.

    The value of christianity in the west was that it mirrored existing low clannishness because of higher pedomorphism (science) and higher verbal acumen (science) and reduction of friction from the lower clasesses (science). The germanicization of christianity resulted in individual protestantism and action vs replacing community catholicism and submission. And even today protestant countries are far higher trust and less backward and corrupt than catholic countries.

    The value of anglo legalism (viking-thinking, anglo-saxon thinking) is that it’s simply personally, commercially, and civically beneficial to demonstrate high trust to others.

    The problem with european and american atheism is that it’s NOT atheism but faith in 19th and 20th century pseudoscience. And the evidence is clear that the church (pseudorationalism, supernaturalism) cannot defeat pseudoscience.

    So if we are going to defeat pseudoscience, the only method of doing so is truth.

    Sorry. That’s all there is.

    Either you are defeated by the marxist/postmodernist/democratic secular socialist / universal human rights pseudosciences that were invented (psudo-scientific abrahamism) to exterminate the aristocratic civilizations, or you will use truth (law, eduction, science) to defeat them AND the supernaturalism of ancient abrahamism (judaism, christianity, islamism)

    You cannot use a more primitive form of lie (religion) to defeat a more advanced form of lie (pseudoscience).

    THat’s what the evidence is.
