AND REVERSE RACISM: OR PERHAPS IT’S TRIVIALLY SIMPLE AND SUCH DISCUSSION IS DISH
http://bleedingheartlibertarians.com/2014/11/on-reverse-racism-three-thought-experiments/RACISM AND REVERSE RACISM: OR PERHAPS IT’S TRIVIALLY SIMPLE AND SUCH DISCUSSION IS DISHONEST
1) The distribution of physical desirability for mating, the demonstrated behaviors of impulsivity and time preference, aggression, and demonstrated intelligence vary between individuals. (true)
2) The social classes are organized by these distributions due to reproductive desirability, status utility, and cooperative (economic) utility. (true)
3) The races demonstrate different relative distributions of these classes. (true)
4) Racial groups demonstrate kin selection in mating, neighborhoods, friendship, social organizations, and business organizations. (true).
5) The norms demonstrated by racial groups reflect behavior at the mean (true). This means lower trust, less intelligent groups must compete against norms in groups with higher trust and higher intelligent groups. (true). It also means that the group that holds dominant political power, and biases toward their norms, determines the economic velocity of the entire polity (true).
6) Racial groups demonstrate kin selection in voting (true).
7) INABILITY to use the state for rents and privileges limits political competition and conflict, whereas ABILITY to use the state for rents and privileges increases political competition and conflict. (true)
8) Economic Wealth reduces dependence upon kin for mutual insurance under kin selection. (true). Economic stress increases dependence upon kin for mutual insurance via kin selection. (true)
9) The difference between economic, political, social, reproductive and status success of one race or another is due to the distribution of superior talents versus inferior liabilities of the members of those races – plus normative factors, the most important of which is in-group trust, and the second is the degree of the suppression of free riding. (true)
10) As such the only reason for racism is the rates of reproduction between the classes. And the only possible means of achieving equality in any and all cases is to suppress the reproduction of the lower classes of the races whose distribution is bottom weighted.
11) It is non-rational to treat unknown individuals who are visually indistinguishable by other than the properties of their peer groups. (true) (which is what people do). One cannot both demand rational action, defend Praxeology, and deny this statement.
12) Equality is achievable and desirable in just four generations. But it is upward reproductive redistribution that must mach downward economic redistribution for equality to be possible. If china can do this so can the rest of the world.
Otherwise, it is non-rational for people with higher reproductive desirability, lower impulsivity, lower aggression, and higher intelligence to tolerate political competition from those who are less desirable and in the net, parasitic, just as it is politically preferable to compete via parasitism if one is less desirable at the bottom.
Human beings are not unique and precious snowflakes. It is only that disregard for life is a moral hazard. The fact that mothers MUST believe their dysgenic offspring are precious is an evolutionary convenience, not a demonstrable fact.
The purpose of science is quite often to force us to acknowledge uncomfortable truths. Equality is not a problem of belief (lying), but one of fact (truth).
Try not to lie.
It hurts the discipline of philosophy. It hurts mankind.

Just negotiated a challenging deal in Kiev.
People are more honest when violence is on the table.
“If I think someone is dishonest, I will not be happy” was all I needed to say.
I like business here.

THE COWARDICE AND INCOMPETENCE OF LIBERTINES
(cross post) (example argument for use by others)
James, Xander:
Gossip: Ridicule, Rallying and Shaming: refuge of schoolgirls and libertines. Gossip is, after all, one of the three possible modes of human coercion. It is just the most dishonest. Force is honest. Exchange is honest. But gossip is not.
Either construct an argument or admit that you cannot. That is what honest men do.
But no. You see, Libertinism is merely a restatement of ghetto separatism – a feel good cult of incompetence for Pussy-tarians. Libertines. Free-riders on liberty created by the actions of others – the reason the liberty movement has failed.
See? I even ridicule better than you do.
So, do you want to stick to adult conversation, or are you going to jump up and down in your pink dress trying to rally real men to fight for you?
Because that is the evolutionary origin of rallying and shaming.
But it’s a hollow threat – libertines have no real men to call upon.

A Challenge – Only Hoppe Can Debate Me
—“First they ignore you , then they ridicule you, then they fight you then you win.”—
[O]nly a dishonest man would recommend people not read something, rather than attack the central argument of the author. But then, dishonesty is central to the ghetto ethic, is it not?
If you do not understand the central arguments, that is one thing, but ignorance or incompetence is not a criticism of me, it is a statement about your judgement of the mirror.
So READ this list. Read Hoppe’s Aristocracy, Monarchy, Democracy. Read Mencius – both of these works are criticisms not solutions. These answers are: Organized violence, property-en-toto, property rights by reciprocal insurance, the symmetry of morality and property rights, and the rule of organic evolutionary law, operationally stated and calculatively constrained, praxeology resurrected as operationalism, and science as the struggle to evolve the means of speaking the truth. Watch my videos. And follow me in Propertarianism, as I drag liberty back into aristocracy and out of the medieval ghetto – kicking and screaming against the objection of a generation of failed libertines using the techniques of the marxists, to create a cult of ideology, rather than an operational institutional framework for the restoration of liberty by demonstrable actions.

The only person who can compete with the argument that I make is hoppe – just as he did with his new essay – by adopting my positions: the source of liberty is violence, and the only source of liberty the law, and that argumentation is a legal constraint not a functional one. And that only by operationalism – constructing decisions by incentives and available information – is human action rationally and scientifically explicable.Cheers

JUAN ORTIZ
Not that it matters particularly, and I only know second hand, but apparently Ortiz is up to his theatrics. So it’s worth setting the record straight.
1) I thought Oritz was just another dysfunctional Aspie. Andy Curzon was investing in him and so I did the same – mostly out of respect for Andy, who wanted to do in London what Roman is doing here in L’viv. Apparently Andy helped Juan come to London.
2) Ortiz was running out of money and clearly not making good decisions. So I gave him some work to do. The idea being that if he could start with simple work he could participate in something other than illegal-alien construction work.
3) I pre-paid him 2K USD to do some very simple business analysis filling out a spreadsheet with skills data.
4) He did next to nothing, but give me excuses for almost two months.
5) He asked me for more money. and I stated that our experiment had failed and my attempt to help him had originally been a luxury but now I must get the work done professionally.
6) Someone else here in L’viv did the work in four days – a few hours really.
7) Ortiz comes out as a critic.
I think “Yet another example of how no good deed goes unpunished.”
I’m a sucker for lost puppies. I know.

The Love Of Heady Murder
[S]top thinking statists are well intentioned fools who can be persuaded by reason. There isn’t any evidence of it. The evidence is overwhelmingly the opposite. We know libertarians are moral specialists – morally blind to certain parts of the spectrum. And if you’re at least mildly praxeologically inclined it’s obvious that it’s not in the interests of statists, or the bottom third, to support meritocracy instead of expropriating the work of those who are most able and willing. It is no more foolish than exploiting the labor of peasants under agrarianism. So, appeals to reason, to construct a democratic majority, or in favor of systemic pacifism, are either the product of cognitive bias, moral blindness, ignorance of the data, an attempt to obtain liberty at a discount, or all of the above. The only source of liberty that ever could or can be, is the organized application of violence to demand it, by increasing the costs of appropriation beyond the rewards for it. Spilling blood is a beautiful thing. Violence is an art to be admired and practiced. Heady murder a splendid joy to be reveled. It is the brick and mortar of the fortress of liberty.
