    It’s interesting how concerned Ukrainians are about keeping their word.

    It’s a beautiful thing.

  • CHRISTIAN LOVE AND PROPERTARIANISM If you haven’t noticed, I’ve bought the love

    CHRISTIAN LOVE AND PROPERTARIANISM

    If you haven’t noticed, I’ve bought the love thing hook line and sinker. I tell other men I love them on a daily basis. And it’s infectious. We don’t support each other enough.

    Our culture tells us to be stalwart stoic warriors in the germanic tradition. But we no longer have normative means of obtaining positive reinforcement for our actions – thanks largely to feminists.

    So we have to take matters into our own hands. The red pill means not just that we love ourselves, but that we love other men. And tell them so, when they do works in our interest.

    Technically, Propertarianism tells us only to suppress parasitism (free riding/imposed costs). But Aristocratic Egalitarianism tells us to treat with brotherly love, all who engage in abstinence of parasitism, act as sheriff to police it, militia to defend it, and warrior to demand it.

    There is precious little in Propertarianism that was not in Aristocratic Christianity, Mithraism, and the initiatic brotherhood of indo European warriors that led to the construction of the Vedas.

    We are man’s aristocracy.

    Shall we abandon man to immorality?

    Or shall we lead him to universal love and abstinence from parasitism?

    Lets lead.

    They failed.

    We must take back rule.

    Leave them government,

    but take back rule.

  • THE CHRISTIAN IDEA The Christian idea is to create high trust by extending kinsh

    THE CHRISTIAN IDEA

    The Christian idea is to create high trust by extending kinship ‘love’ to non-kin, by ignoring our animal impulses evolved for status competition and accumulation, thereby reducing the friction of familism, clannishness and tribalism, and increasing the velocity of cooperation.

    By attributing status to extension of kinship love to non-kin, Christian groups eliminate status by ‘cheating’ in favor of the family or tribe. Although this means that many Mediterranean Catholics practice low trust chirstianity by retaining familial insurance and kin selection. While protestant Christians eliminate even familial insurance via the absolute nuclear family.

    This behavior is necessary for the development of an advanced economy. And it separates the west and Japan from the rest.

    This behavior is also the opposite of the Levantine religions which advocate dualist, polylogical ethics by exacerbating kin selection at the tribal level even while eliminating it at the familial level. So we can see lowest-trust Islam, next-lowest trust Judaism, low trust catholicism, and high trust protestantism. And when we order them this way we see that this order reflects the number of territorial competitors.

    It is also (probably) true that westerners are less genetically biased against outsiders (due to more circumpolar hunter-gatherer evolutionary pressures) and less aggressive (lower testosterone) and more able to take advantage of it (higher average verbal IQ).

    But all that means is that westerners are more fertile genetic ground for extension of kinship love to non-kin.

    The church outlawing cousin marriage in order to break up the great families was equally influential.

    So it is one thing to acknowledge the central subtle principle of Christianity, and to grasp its dramatic economic and political benefits, and quite another to conflate the dogma, rules and justifications as other than primitive law.

  • John Adams on The Central Proposition of Christianity

    —“The fundamental doctrine of the Christian religion is the extirpation of hatred from the human heart. It forbids the exercise of it, even towards enemies.”—John Adams

    [J]esus ‘is’ love is pretty much all there is to it. And the purpose is to break tribal bonds: to extend familial trust to everyone (as a means of defeating Rome). The rest is just decoration and ritual (and best dispensed with).

    Truth(Testimony), Love(Trust), Excellence(Virtue), Goodness (Commons), and Beauty(Resources).

    —-“The natural hatred of the Mussulmen towards the infidels is in just accordance with the precepts of the Koran. “—-

    Which is entirely incompatible with our way of life.  

    Separation of gods commands (soul) and state’s commands (property).
    Costly Truth vs Justified Deceit. 
    Evolutionary  vs Static 
    Scientific vs Magical
    Deeds vs Words
    Results vs Beliefs
    Love and Tolerance vs Hatred, Intolerance and Forced Conversion.
    Outbreeding vs Inbreeding.
    Equality of gender rights vs inequality of gender rights.

    If one has to lie to compete then one has demonstrated genetic inferiority insufficient to justify both cooperation and existence.

    The consequences of that statement are profound

  • ARISTOCRATIC EGALITARIAN NOMOCRACTIC CLASSICAL LIBERAL AND THEREFORE LIBERTARIAN

    ARISTOCRATIC EGALITARIAN NOMOCRACTIC CLASSICAL LIBERAL AND THEREFORE LIBERTARIAN. ( 🙂 )

    My point is that I’m not a ‘white nationalist’. I’m a universal nationalist. A higher-tribalist. An advocate for truth, science, and nomocracy; for the market production of commons.

    What does that mean?

    It means that we can choose a spectrum between a corporations resulting in castes, or nations (extended families) resulting in aristocracy. But we will never achieve equality. It’s impossible because we are too vastly unequal to one another in value to one another (capability).

    It is our lower classes that cannot merge. Our aristocracies are, and must be global. But bringing our lower classes – reliant on one another – to capital, and particularly to normative and institutional capital, is suicidal.

    Our differences are expressed by our lower classes. our similarities by our upper classes.

    Yet our upper classes can only obtain status (and status can only be widely manufactured by positive (non consumptive) means, if there are many nations, with many aristocrats. Aristocracy gains its status signals from raising its people from one state and one distribution to another state and another distribution. Otherwise they are just parasites on their own people.

    So I advocate universal aristocracy. Universal tribalism. Universal familialism. And as such I am an anti-corporatist in both private and public institutions.

    To no small degree, I view the emphasis on signaling via consumption and the offloading of underclasses to more developed nations, as a total abdication of aristocratic responsibility for the parental development of their civilizations.

    [I]t’s actually a profound statement. Rather than asking how we act under the assumption of cooperation, we ask under what conditions do we rationally choose to cooperate?
