    The only time it isn’t about money is when you’re trying to steal time, effort, money, property, status, opportunity, and political power.

  • THE FIFTH SECRET OF PROPERTARIANISM: WORDS THAT I USE MEAN WHAT I INTEND THEM TO

    THE FIFTH SECRET OF PROPERTARIANISM: WORDS THAT I USE MEAN WHAT I INTEND THEM TO MEAN.

    Yes I must create new terms, redefine existing terms, or clarify existing terms, or use different phrasing to prevent the falsehoods in accumulated semantics, whether fictional(fictionalisms), common(ordinary), professional (disciplinary).

    Moreover, in order to unite Religion, Philosophy (what remains of it), Ethics and Morality, Law, Economics, Science, and Logic, into a single commensurable language that gives no discipline room for deception, I must correct the many ‘fictionalisms’ that plague each of the disciplines no matter how long their traditions.

    So I choose terms from each that are the most common, and you will find that I choose economics, cognitive science, and physics wherever possible, because they are the youngest languages with the least …. traditional falsehoods. I use mathematics but I use it in operational language. Most of our intellectual history is heavily biased by fictionalisms (storytelling analogies with pretense of science, logic, or reason.)

    Words mean what I choose them to mean, and my meanings are less subject to falsehood, since that is the purpose of the deflationary grammar (and semantics) of operationism, acquisitionism, propertarianism.

    TO DEFEAT ABRAHAMISM: THE INVENTION OF LYING.

    And I have an 80K word glossary to explain them.

    Cheers

  • Is Being Racist Edgy?

    You know, I have built a reputation out of answering the uncomfortable questions using the language of economics to explain human evolution, development, behavior, and thought.

    And providing uncomfortable but true information is always ‘edgy’. And working on ‘edgy’ subjects draws attention.

    Despite writing rather prolifically against racism (particularly racism against whites), I have ended up as a bit of a …. spokesman on the matter, quite by accident.

    And honestly it’s not something I care for.

    The truth is I hate the subject, I don’t care if I’m edgy, I just want to know the truth. And the truth is that every single claim of racism is just a postmodern form of ridicule, shaming, gossiping and rallying.

    The fact is that steriotypes are the most accurate measure in the social sciences.

    So what will we do to change the fact that stereotypes are profoundly accurate descriptions of behavioral distributions among people with similar features. The reason is very simple: the scale of the underclasses of warmer climates that did not undergo manorialism is larger than the scale of the underclasses of the colder climates that went through manorialism (west europe, and east asia).

    Agrarianism was a genetic meat grinder. It made a profound difference. And the plague, and hte fact that europeans hanged so significatn proportions of the population every year, and the east asians (chinese) used the axe with equal profligacy let the middle classes move downward and create higher median distributions of abilities and behaviors.

  • If Quora No Longer Exists, What Website That Is Very Similar To Quora You Would Use Instead?

    Quora consists very heavily of ‘fake’ questions produced by bots, low wage workers, ‘students’ (too lazy to use google), and volunteers. Originally it was closer to Medium today. There were good people here, and it was worth answering questions – a bit like Medium is today.

    Quora does not create a ‘wikipedia’ competitor which retains good answers as a form of capital. (See Stack Overflow and it’s related sites instead).

    Wikipedia is about as biased and cultish as an organization can get. I don’t bother editing pages any longer.

    There are many startups trying to solve this problem (over-democratization produces decreasing returns on intellectual investment.) or stated otherwise, the bigger you get the dumber you need to be.

    I think most of us are choosing Medium right now – but as I understand it they’re a hobby business that is under threat. Their pricing is out of line.

    I do most of my work on facebook, and have thousands of followers there.

    Unfortunately there is no good solution YET. Although people are working on them.
