Theme: Decidability

TRUST, COOPERATION (RECIPROCITY), AND DECIDABILITY OF LIMITS ARE VECTORS THAT DEVELOP A CIVILIZATION’S LONG TERM SUCCESS

by Lucas Cort

(Flawless – CD)

The idea that everyone is equal appears to be a good rule for cooperation (when people share similarities) but it neglects full accounting in terms of differences in specialization, incentives,actions, and abilities.

Individual:

Morphology, cognition, incentives, preferences, morals, culture

Genders:

Morphology (bodies: bone structure and density, reproductive organs, endocrinology, brain structure distributions), reproductive strategies (incentives, preferences, morals, temperament)

Races:

Morphology (bodies: bone structure and density, reproductive organs, brain structure distributions), neoteny (rates and duration of sexual maturity), distributions of reproductive strategies, (incentives, preferences, morals, temperament) and group evolutionary strategies (cultural, organization and applications of violence)

Classes:

Rates of production, consumption, distributions of proceeding categories: (individual,genders,races)

If we don’t address differences, we distort the measures that lead to decidability through full accounting and disambiguation.

Differences in all these categories can be seen as specializations in the acquisition of genetic, social-cultural, and economic capital. They affect the way we act in the environment with others due to differing incentives.

The result of demonstrated property (property-en-toto) shows that people invest and are willing to defend against the impositions of costs. Differing incentives, cognitive biases, reproductive and group evolutionary strategies show that people value property differently.

Understanding that differences between the golden rule and the silver rule:

Golden rule – “Do unto others as you would have done unto you”

Silver rule – “Do not unto others as you would not have done unto you.”

And

Tolerance and forbearance:

Tolerance – “I use Tolerance to mean allowing costs to be assessed against non-consenting parties as ambiguity makes it unclear what additional party is specifically responsible for costs” – Luke Weinhagen

Forbearance – “Forbearance includes tolerance AND limits (until the cost one was willing carried has been exceeded), AND active participation – its a choice which one can boycott/defect based on the cost carried.” – Bill Joslin

Clarifies limits, and aids in decidability to in and out group disputes.

By disambiguating differences we can address the constant relations across and between these groups, and their interactions allows us to accurately measure transfers between them.

Measuring violations of reciprocity under rule of law makes us equal before the law. We are not all equal, but if we insure each other against parasitism, we can preserve cooperation.

That way, we don’t shift costs, and we identify group conflict so that we can focus on real solutions to incentivize cooperation.
