His contempt for the norms of political correctness is daily on display.

    What the Trump campaign reveals is that … the political establishment and its media arm are looked upon the way the commons and peasantry of 1789 looked upon the ancien regime and the king’s courtiers at Versailles.”—

    http://blog.talkingphilosophy.com/?p=9080TRUMP’S USE OF TRADITIONAL HYPERBOLE

    RE: http://blog.talkingphilosophy.com/?p=9080

    First, I like that you’re pointing out his technique, and how long Trump has been using it – his whole career.

    However, I think I might want to help you understand just how ancient this technique is in the west – given our many-thousand-year-old culture of oath-making.

    You can notice rather quickly once aware of it, that traditional westerners who carry on the ancient traditions of oath-making (conservatives, or more correctly, aristocratic egalitarians) rely upon exaggeration in order to make the point that “this small thing if done by all of us will lead to tragic consequences”.

    Conservative thought, which has its origins in the limits imposed by Anglo Saxon Oath that all men must give at maturity – meaning that men cannot steal in any capacity nor say something false or misleading – but they can still make use of exaggeration to illustrate intertemporal effects of behavior.

    In other words use of hyperbole is no different from the use of Greek Fable, or Germanic Fairy Tale, or Shakespearian Drama, and no different from Michelangelo’s use of oversized hands, feet, and head, of his sculpture of David.

    The use of exaggeration to illustrate a fundamental truth, is very different from misleading. It is in fact an exceptional means of communicating moral principles: that which we permit of one, will result in this bad of many.

    Hyperbole is the language of parable.

  • “WHITE DEBT?” ARE YOU KIDDING? YOU’RE KIDDING? NEW YORK TIMES – CHIEF DISTRIBUTO

    “WHITE DEBT?” ARE YOU KIDDING? YOU’RE KIDDING?

    NEW YORK TIMES – CHIEF DISTRIBUTOR OF STATIST PROPAGANDISM

    (trigger warning)

    –“White Debt: Reckoning with what is owed — and what can never be repaid for racial privilege.”— By Eula Bliss

    White people, for all their failures of colonization, have in the ancient world and in the modern world, dragged humanity out of ignorance, poverty, and illness. Not once but twice.

    While Jews converted authoritarian Egyptian religion into scriptural monotheism – the First Great Lie, the Greeks invented truth telling, the jury, rule of law, the greater-jury: the senate and therefore politics, reason and science, freedom and liberty.

    While Europeans invented anglo-saxon rule of law, while the templars invented moral insurance, fractional reserve banking, credit and interest, what had other nations done? What did the most literate people in Europe do: the Jews? Nothing contributed to man whatsoever.

    When Europeans spread the high arts of Architecture, Painting, Drawing, Etching, the Opera, the Play, The Symphony, and the greatest sculptors the world has ever known, what did other nations do? What did jews do? Nothing.

    While Europeans spread the industrial revolution, accounting, rule of law, parliamentarianism, medicine, electromagnetism, photography, and invented empirical economics, and social science, what did other nations do? What did the Jews do: they invented pseudoscience and propaganda and lying as a virtue under: Boazian Anthropology, Freudian Psychology, Marxist Economics, Cantorian “Sets”, Misesian economics, The Frankfurt school of Gossip and Ridicule (“Critique”), the systemic use of “heaping undue praise” on these pseudoscientists and liars, Randian and Rothbardian Libertinism, Straussian NeoConservatism. And the institutionalism of lying via media that we call ‘critique, loading, framing, and overloading’: the industrialization deceit.

    While Europeans converted from christian monarchy to classical liberalism, what did others do? What did the Jews do? They maintained virtual slavery of the peasantry in Eastern Europe, prevented the creation of a modern state justice and liberty. And when given the chance under the Bolsheviks, filled the secret service, disproportionately contributed to policy, and used marxism and propaganda to create the most murderous government in history other than that of the Chinese. The Ukrainian Genocide was not constructed by ethnic Russians, but by a Georgian and Jews. – So great were their crimes that even the Russians with experience under Mongols, Tatars, and Ivan the Terrible cast them out. When given the chance under glasnost, they repeated their crimes which led Putin to cast them out.

    When persecuted in Europe and given protection in the USA, what did they do but use Columbia University to produce the systematic Gossip and Lying of the Frankfurt School.

    So in both the ancient and the modern world, westerners created truth and it’s consequence: empirical science, technology, medicine, and law, and spread it through colonization. Not all of it good. But not all of it bad either. And why were they able to spread it? Because the Islamic world had failed to create sufficient trust that they could construct a bureaucracy and advanced economy. Because the Jewish World (in Eastern Europe) could not create sufficient trust to construct an advanced economy. Because the Hindu world had failed to construct sufficient trust that they could create a bureaucracy. Because the african world had failed to create even the first semblance of trust.

    What did other nations do? What did the Jews do? In the ancient world they created the First Great Lie: Monotheism spread by Writing and Preaching. In the Modern world they created the Second Great Lie spread by new media and propagandism using both the fallacy of Critique, and the fallacy of “Heaping Undue Praise”.

    So before you criticize white people for their imperfections and at the same time willfully ignore their vast contributions, lets compare them to the imperfections and outright predations of others, and their tragic lack contributions.

    White people did almost everything meaningful in human history to advance truth, understanding, justice, beauty, health and prosperity. Meanwhile others spread lies (Jews) and others spread ignorance and poverty (Muslims).

    If there is anyone to blame in history it is the creators of lies and poverty.

    So please that NY Times Author Eula Bliss engages in “Critique” and “Heaping Undue Praise” In other words, the author is a liar and propagandist. Nothing more.

    SO DEBT? YES, OTHERS OWE US THAT DEBT.

    So here is the debt we want repaid: we want the fall of the roman empire, the thousand years of ignorance, and the past century and a half of pseudoscience, including the destruction of truth telling, the destruction of rule of law, and the destruction of the Civic Society paid for. We want Constantinople back, Greece and the Balkans back.

    And we won’t even charge the rest of humanity for dragging the brutality of asians, the dishonestly of middle easterners, and the ignorance of africans out of ignorance, poverty, illness and disease. Those are just freebies.

    What we do want, and what we demand, is that you stop propagandizing, loading, framing, overloading, lying, rallying and shaming, creating the Great Lies of mysticism in the ancient world, and pseudoscience in the modern, both of which were two of the most murderous and destructive forces ever unleashed upon humanity.

    So, given the vast differences in scale, how will you repay that debt?

    THE LIE OF CULTURAL APPROPRIATION

    Here is the propertarian translation of the criticism of Cultural Appropriation:

    “I want something reason to feel good about myself, despite my people’s lack of excellences, achievements, talents, ability – I need to convince myself that I have status despite the contrary signals that I don’t.

    “When competitors demonstrate yet another mastery, the mastery of my identity rituals, this deprives me of my false signals of status. It forces me to confront the reality of my status as it exists rather than as I wish it to be.

    “Meritocracy only assists the superiors. The inferiors need means of finding acceptance and reward as well.”

    (h/t Lesley Drabble )

    Isn’t free speech over truthful speech merely the left’s means of lying and propagandising with impunity?

    Truth is enough.

    It created the west.

    It restored the west from mysticism.

    It can restore the west from pseudoscience and deceit.

    We need only make all public speech testimony.

    Because that is its function.

    Perjury for false testimony in the commons.

  • Q&A: “Why Are People ‘Triggered’ By Doolittle?”

    [I] have been openly attacking the Mises Institute’s propagandizing of rothbardianism for two years now. And they have no response to my criticisms (they can’t have one really – they can only adapt to them.) People invest their self worth in these ideologies to the point which they are not competing institutional solutions but hats to hang one’s self worth upon. It’s only logical that they defend their priors by non rational, non-empirical, largely symbolic and emotional means. The great thing about Rothbard is that despite being mostly wrong, he’s partly right, and what he’s right about is relatively easy for amateurs to understand. If people understood my arguments they would grok that I’m completing the ANCAP project by converting it from pseudoscience and kantian rationalism to a scientific argument that’s uniform across biology, morality, philosophy, law, politics and economics. Which, just in terms of explanatory power is pretty hard to criticize. But if the end result is preservation of investment, preservation of self image, rejection of the effort and time needed to improve one’s knowledge and a justification of non-contribution to the commons for the because one is rejected by the mainstream culture, then that’s an excuse for one’s behavior not a pursuit of a moral good, a sustainable political order, or an scientific truth about cooperation among men. Cheers

  • Q&A: “Why Don’t You Debate The Rothbardians, Or [Insert Name Here]?”

    (very important ideas in the longer answer)QUICK ANSWER: [A]ny time. Any day. It’s because they’re afraid of me. Just as they’re becoming increasingly afraid of everyone else given the catastrophic failure of their ideology. Hans has said I am ‘too combative’ which is true – because one of the marxist techniques is to rely upon your good manners and lack of hostility to conduct loading, framing, overloading, suggestion, gossip, shaming and rallying. So I attack dishonestly in their arguments – even when they have no idea that they’re engaging in unconscious dishonesty (fallacy). LONG ANSWER: [L]ook, I’m trying to CORRECT the enlightenment: Not just the jewish, but ALL of it: French, Anglo, American, German and Jewish.

    • The French literary catholicism
    • The Anglo classical liberal
    • The German Kantian rationalist
    • The Jewish Pseudoscientific Hermeneutic

    I’m trying to correct all of them. Including the fallacy that Mises is an Austrian empirical christian classical liberal and libertarian rather than a Ukrainian Jewish Pseudoscientific Cosmopolitan libertine who was born in predominantly Jewish Ukraine and happened to go to Vienna for School. But why so much emphasis on correcting the cosmopolitans? Because they have little real concept of government, no concept of commons, no concept of natural law. But they have a well developed application of using money, finance, banking, and economics as a means of constructing a social order. ***When you combine banking with rule of law you have the basis of an amoral social science: a means of arguing amorally rather than morally.*** You see. It’s not that the cosmopolitans had a particular insight. It’s all the cosmopolitans had to work with. Its their internal system of government writ large: create a law(that one cannot fail to adhere to), justify it pseudo-scientifically (or religiously), propagate it widely (verbal, written, print, media propaganda), and use ostracization (gossip, rally, shame)defectors, and heroize (heap undue praise) on advocates. You can see from this list of attributes that this reflects the origins of both Mises’ and Rothbard’s works – as well as the better work of Georg Simmel’s on “The Philosophy of Money” which I tend to prefer, and pair with Popper’s “Sources of Knowledge and Ignorance”, and Hayek’s “Use of Information in Society”, and his “Law, Legislation and Liberty”, as well as his chapters on Traditional Knowledge **The Humeian and Smithian argument does the same between states. But the Cosmopolitan argument does so Amorally*** (meaning without moral reference, vs immoral which means violation of moral prohibitions, and moral which means by adhering to moral prohibitions on involuntary imposition of costs.) And you see, that’s the magic right there. Jewish law may be a parasitic group evolutionary strategy (objectively immoral), it may be polymoral (objectively immoral), and it may be constructed from scripture (babylonian and Egyptian appropriation). But besides being written down, and internally consistent, and rather complete in its coverage, the organizing principles of diasporic judaism of the ghetto, bazaar, steppe and desert peoples is i)separatism, ii)law and iii)communal banking/insurance. Just as the organizing principles of western man are i)martial universalism, ii)law, and iii)production. Money and credit are more ‘precise’ forms of ‘instrumental measurement of individual behavior’ than are property and production and reputation. And that right there is pretty profound. Conversely, land is illiquid and production time consuming, and requires armies to hold it. This is very different from money and ledgers. So as a new technology that was ADDITIVE to the aristocratic landed order, especially since the forced destruction of our own diasporic capitalists, the Knights Templar (in one of the great crimes of history second only to the forcible christianization of Europe under Justinian), the diasporic jewish people had been conducting a research program into management of political order by law, money and credit instead of by law, land and production. (And an eugenic reproduction program as great as westerners had been conducting in their different order). ( Note: EVOLUTION OF ORDERS: Tribe, Religion(universal – ostracization vs inclusion), Law(particular – punishment vs avoidance), Credit(individual – consumption vs hardship), (Truth????) ) And that’s why I emphasize this unification of a) the anglo empirical and truthful discourse under rule of law and a market for commons (b) the german martial patriarchal hierarchy of duty land holding man (c) the jewish unification of morality, credit and law – as the best of each culture’s research program without the errors, immoralities, and various fallacious constructions of each. So we can now reconstruct our civic order, by combining our ancient traditions of property rights, our medieval market government, our enlightenment understanding of rule of law, our new understanding money, credit, and economics as a more granular application of law, and our understanding of biology, to unite into a single consistent framework the disciplines of biology, morality, law, philosophy, economics, politics, into a single unified system that is constructed amorally and therefore universally, and which provides decidability in all questions of conflict. And that is pretty cool. So the reason I pick on the cosmopolitans is because of their propagandizing of falsehoods and pseudosciences. While at the same time I try to reform all three enlightenments. It’s not that I don’t make use of these men’s work. It’s that it’s only half right, and half wrong, and it’s useless as half wrong.
