—“You’re a 50 something autist who lives in a backwater European country. You studied art history in college, you’ve never been published, and you spend your whole time espousing your ideas on reddit and Facebook. Who is going to ever take you seriously? “— Liberty Owl
Ad hominem of the day.
Apparently can’t google my bio.
Let me help you.
The correct criticism of me is that I am a ruthless and ethically questionable competitor in business and life who single-mindedly pursues his messianic calling nearly regardless of consequence to myself or others, and the outcome of which is as yet unfinished and untested – yet shows profound promise.
I know who and what I am. My mirror doesn’t lie. It’s far more critical than you would have the courage to stare into.
I have not the courage either. It is fear for my people and mankind not courage that drives me.
I do not judge myself a good person. I judge myself a warrior and there are no ethical and moral constraints in wars of extermination.

Humans are very simple creatures. The mind operates by very predictable means, by very clear incentives. It’s the layer cake of justificatinos, excuses,lies we tell ourselves and each other that make it possible.
We need to achieve a certain state. We attempt to achieve that state by the means available to us, and the techniques available to us.
Why? Because most of us are uncompetitive, average, nothings, or worse, and we need a means of feeling like we’re winning or succeeding that is a game rather than a problem. Everyone tries to invent a signal-game of some sort because so little of what we do is meaningful to anyone other than ourselves.
This used to be obtained through spiritualism of one form or another. But with the fall of religion we see secular people searching for all sorts of excuses to achieve the same ends by other means.
It’s ok. It’s like breathing. We gotta do it. – Cheers

TRUTH PROPOSITION
If you cannot eliminate the verb to-be from a statement or question you are not engaging in philosophy but deception – a victorian parlor game for the educated but unintelligent.
If you cannot make a moral argument using the costs to each party that are involved, you are not engaging in philosophy but deception – an ancient means of political fraud.
If you cannot state the meaning you wish to attribute to a term in the context of problem solving, and instead seek to discover its normative ‘meaning’ you are simply seeking confirmation bias – self and other deception.
If you cannot define truth as you intend it yet make a truth claim you are engaged in self and other deception.

—“FWIW I still think about you and what you’ve sunken into. It’s deeply disappointing to see that someone I used to think of as a good and intelligent person has sunk to a level of such desperation for validation that they have to enjoy it from neo-nazis – even those who don’t accept the label.”—
I set out to do a very simple thing: produce a rational scientific language for the discussion of manners, ethics, morality, law, politics and economics. The fact that I ended up in the New Right movement rather than the previous Libertarian Movement is the product of many years of work, and simply following the evidence. I do not know if I am a good person. Most of the time I think not. My ‘mission’ has become so consuming that like many innovators I give it more priority in my life than being a ‘good person’ permits. But having said that, the problem I would face would be that as a scientist, and in particular a scientist of truthfulness, I know very well how to test my own ideas and those of others with such thoroughness that I CANNOT hold a belief that I suspect to be false – at least for long.
Everyone who follows me knows that I have a very clear agenda of creating a pool of people who can practice this deconflation, and prosecute the many false arguments, ideas, and opinions that people rely on to rally and shame and deceive. But most people know that I’m also ‘respectful’ of those men who will fight. And I understand the language of those men who will fight. They speak hyperbolically. But they speak hyperbolically because they have no concrete plan to follow. They have no leader that can lead them to success. So my belief is that if I am respectful of their hyperbole, that when I supply concrete methods of action – and as long as I do so tactically so that they don’t self-fantasize away their rage – then I will be able to make use of both the intellectual as well as the rebellious personalities.
( BTW: the neo-nazis hate me because I don’t play the racism game. All groups can transcend the animal man. )
I demonstrate EVERY DAY that I can deflate arguments, opinions and ideas into causal properties and so far the world is unable to raise me an opponent that can survive my ability to do so.
So the question is, since (a) you have offered only an attempt to morally shame me – the ‘tell’ of a lie, (b) you have offered only the criticism that IQ (an aggregate but correspondent measure of rates and degrees of demonstrated intelligence) is somehow ‘false’, (c) you pull out Godwin’s Law, (e) and offer no substantive arguments whatsoever against anything I say. (which I can only suggest that you don’t understand it.
—“Your reference to “data” and “facts” – I hope you understand that given my previous respect for you, that I have a hard time believing that the horse shit you spew is something that you actually take as data and facts.”—
Do you have some examples, because you know, I’m pretty thorough about what I do….. and so far, you’re just throwing spaghetti at the wall.
—-“Someone with a deeper sense of objectivity would be able to see through and discount these fallacies fairly quickly. It’s something that should be very embarrassing for you. It’s hard for me to believe that you don’t “—–
Well you know, you are not really sure of the meaning of what you just said. Because you just said someone with subjective opinions that you agree with speak the truth, not arguments that show due diligence of consistency across all dimensions. I don’t do that. I just “do the accounting”: are statements true or false, and do they seek to change state of capital, and for whom?
—-“I made a documentary about a UFO cult once. From that I learned that people who want to believe nonsense will believe it. It’s up to them to yank their heads out of their asses.”—-
Yes the question is whether it’s me that’s more scientific and therefore truthful and objective or you. And so far I keep winning all the hands for the simple purpose you don’t bring any cards to the table.
My argument is pretty simple: we can live in harmony and relative equality if we live in small european style states under which each group can express its evolutionary strategy without dominating the evolutionary strategy of others. And that we can – through trade – compensate for our biological differences as groups. conversely to ask other groups to pay for the ‘domestication’ (or civilization, or enlightenment) of your group rather than pay for it yourself, is to place an immoral burden on others.
Let a thousand nations bloom.

The alt-right consider being called Nazis a badge of honor. 1) You cannot shame
The alt-right consider being called Nazis a badge of honor.
1) You cannot shame them. If you resort to rallying and shaming they consider you to have demonstrated their point: for the ‘new right’ world view, the left speaks nothing but error, bias, pseudoscience and lies and rallies and shames, to cover error, bias, pseudoscience and lies, in order to obtain by force of government that which cannot be obtained by voluntary cooperation.
2) They counter rallying and shaming with ridicule. (Green frogs, Memes, Trolling, etc). And in some cases they have adopted the left’s exploitation of and use of falsehoods.
3) They are adopting the digital age’s equivalent of the left’s community organizing. And it is working.
4) So, just as the islamic fundamentalists have adopted the techniques of the Marxists, the new right has adopted the techniques of the Marxists. In other words, they are seeking to use the techniques invented by the left to create a revolution where the left failed, and instead, achieved through incrementalism in law, incrementalism in education, and incrementalism in immigration.
My expectation is that they will continue this cycle, since the status quo always presents an easy target of criticism.

Constitutional Convention? How about Hanging-Trees?
ON LIBERAL CALLS FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION: WE HAVE OTHER IDEAS – HANGING TREES FOR THE LIARS. No we are not having a constitutional convention. 1) Liberals have destroyed the constitution’s rule of law by arguing that we can pass whatever laws we want. The 14th amendment alone invalidated the constitution. What damage wasn’t done then was done by the income tax. What wasn’t done then was done by Roosevelt’s threat to stack the supreme court if we didn’t enact social security. If we can pass abortion, gay marriage, and obamacare, and if we have circumvented the amendment and convention process, then rule of law no longer exists. the government exists only out of habit, and simply hasn’t created enough discord to cause a revolution – until now.2) So lets just skip yet another leftist lie. There is no united states any longer, because there is no constitution any longer, because there is no rule of law any longer, because the liberals destroyed rule of law in order to destroy the united states by achieving through immigration of the third world against the will of the people in order to destroy the united states by an act of fraud.. 3) So here is what we suggest: the moment you call for a convention you’re declaring war. And we WANT a war. We love war. It is our greatest achievement after truth. We can agree that the undesirable states with the immigrant cities leave the union, freeing us from generations of accumulated debt and expense, and cultural and genetic conquest. Preserving the government. Or we can remove all federal legislation and return it to the states, and dissolve the supreme court, the congress and the presidency, leaving only the Military, the Treasury, and The Insurer of Last Resort, to be managed by a board of the governors. Or we will end the united states and devolve into separate regional polities that reflect regional cultures, and abandon the federal government entirely, returning all powers and functions to the regions or states. Or we can start a civil war, kill as many of each other and the members of the government that we can – and let the chips fall where they may. But what we will NOT do is allow the liberals to use the pretense of rule of law to engineer a conquest of our people, culture, and territories We’ll kill all of you first – and revel in it.
