    TEACHING MEN

    ( You see newbies? This ‘dialog’ is how I run a class. I start an idea. Others participate. I quote good ideas. The only test is the one you give yourself. I don’t charge anything for it other than your time, attention, and a demand you aren’t too irritating. πŸ˜‰ )

  • I finally have you Jordan. I understand your mistake. You confuse justification

    I finally have you Jordan. I understand your mistake. You confuse justification with cause. You love parable by which to indirectly educate and inform the feeble, weak, and broken – a narrative, a fiction, rather than a calculation that is arguable among men who are able, strong, and hale.

    You do not understand the west at all.

    Just the stories mothers and grandmothers tell to children to get them to conform; the excuses of the middle classes that long for the power they do not have. The priests who take credit by recasting the achievements of others.

    But, the law of the initiatic brotherhood of warriors isn’t written down. It in’t spoken. It’s demonstrated. It’s inherited generation by generation. And it is the most truthful epistemology ever created: ‘testimonial reporting of observations in the field’.

    And, instead of parable, advocacy or tutelage, it is written via-negativa in our traditional laws and customs, not in the excuses mothers give to children, laments of the middle class, or deceptions of priests.

    The west has an artificially imposed cult of monopoly(christianity) in exchange for limited literacy and legitimacy of one tribal king to dominate, conquer, and seek rents from another.

    The West has had an internally developed religion: a host of archetypal narratives, the respect for heroes, culminating the tragedy (sacrifice) of Achilles, and the west has a prehistoric philosophy: the common law of tort, decided by tests of reciprocity, which is the only possible means of decidability between peers in the initiatic brotherhood of warriors.

    The entire history and success of the west is the *consequence* of sovereignty (meritocracy).

    We institutionalized the political economy of pirates that we kindly refer to as ‘liberty’ from constraint rather than ‘sovereignty’ because there are *none who can constrain us*.

    The west has always been tripartite, and priests deceive, middle class appeals, but the warriors – the militia and the aristocracy – ruled. Yet the propagation of propaganda was produced inversely.

    The priests with the falsehood of religion, the philosophers with the half truths of philosophy, and the jurists and warriors with the empirical, scientific, and truthful COMMON LAW, that we call the ‘Rights of Anglo Saxons” – but begins in today’s poland and ukraine as the law of dispute resolution between the initiatic brotherhood of warriors we today loosely refer to without understanding as ‘the militia’.

    Western civilization differs from the rest for the exclusive reason that men in the absence of concentrated capital (river valleys), must finance their own retainers, horses, chariots and armor before venturing out on raids, or supplementing those horses with even faster shallow water ships.

    The consequence of their common law is that the only means of decidability available to the population is demonstrated property (meaning investment), and as a necessary an inescapable consequence, we developed markets in everything from association, to reproduction, to cooperation, to commons, to politics, to war. And that is why we never developed monolithic religion, never developed monolithic argument, and never succumbed to the stagnation of every other civilization except when we were invaded by christianity that undermined the aristocracy, and islam, that undermined our trade routes.

    THe virtue of our sovereignty is that we develop markets in everything, and markets adapt faster than all other systems particularly because they make rents very difficult – and all other civilizations collapse from the accumulated stagnation produced by those rents.

    We were not first. We were fastest. And we were fastest not because of priests, philosophers, and authors – but in spite of them. All civilizations are best understood by their laws and the institutions by which they decide them. Everything else is just decoration.

    The west begins with the militia. And it will, if it ends, end because the militia ends.

    (Yes, that little bit of nonsense on the psychologism of pride made me angry)

    It’s not a gene, its that our development is being repressed in order to educate us in the same room with girls, and with different ethnic groups that sexually mature faster than we do. We need exercise, competition, and dominance play. And to learn to compete not PLEASE.

    CAUTIOUS OUTREACH

    I’m interested in input from atheist ex muslims who have STEM or economics/finance education, and whose profile pages I can feel confident approving as friends. I have a pretty good network in the spanish speaking world. I’m building a good network in africa of people I can count on for advice and insight. I hope to reach out to china this year but that’s going to be ‘bloody’ I think.

    I have recently lost a few people in the islamic world because while I have already worked through judaism and christianity, I am now working through islam – or rather, the arab conquest, and I”m losing people to my criticisms just as I lost christians and jews working through their ‘abrahamic nonsense’.

    The problem is that while jews and christians have passed through the enlightenment and while christians have completed their counter-revolution against it, and jews are just ending their counter-revolution against it, the muslims are deep in the midst of it, and do not have a clear vision of their future once that history has been historicized (converted to history and science). So while I do find people in Turkey fairly frequently, I seem to have trouble finding ethnic persians and arabs.

    It takes a great deal of moral courage and intellectual honesty to overcome the deceptions that began thousands of years ago, and to acknowledge the horrible consequences that each of our cultures have put upon the world because of these falsehoods, as well as because of the profitability of conquest and empire. So the number of people that I can work with is limited to the extremely intellectually brave and honest.

    So I’m going to remind people the very DISCIPLINED way in which I work. I work via-negativa. I make arguments to undermine every assumption we hold dear, so that I can find the few ideas that are ‘good’ underneath them, and the counter intuitive ideas that produce negative externalities, and the outright falsehoods that produce constant damage to every human generation.

    And again, it is not easy to do this in the first place, and it is not comfortable. And it takes a certain kind of person to follow me on this journey.

    In the end my opinion is this: the primary difference between groups of homo-sapiens-sapiens is in the sizes of our underclasses, and the achievements of the far ends of the west and the east are due to our ability to reduce the relative sizes of our underclasses, while this hasn’t been equally possible in other parts of the world.

    Or in very simple terms, If we all speak ‘aristotelian’ then anyone capable of speaking aristotelian ‘science’ is compatible. The problem is there is a threshold by which we can speak ‘aristotelian’. The underclass is a dead weight and always has been.

    In this sense, all of our peoples can transcend (evolve) in to the gods we once admired.

    I mean, you have to ask why, in the ancient world, the tragedy of achilles was as dominant as the bible was in the medieval era, and it constituted the vast majority of the content in alexandria. Why did they replace achilles with this person jesus? That analysis ends debate.

    The church empirically captured and ‘made dead’ capital. They ended the practice of roman literacy. Our escape from abrahamic ignorance, the church’s suppression of literacy, the church’s nearly monopoly on territory and rents, is just an empirical fact. You can’t get out of it.
