    ukrainians and poles are less different than ukrainians and russians. Which is the whole point. They want to join europe and be (prosperous) like the poles rather than join russia and be poor and oppressed like the russians.

    Um. Poland has zero tolerance for migration (immigrants). The whole of the intermarium shares that conviction. It’s the western europeans that have bought into the postwar relativism.

    Phobia is a lie. We have differences in interests. The question is whether they are the government (yes) or the people (no).

    Yes it’s better that we separate rather than conflict, but our attempts at separation are not equal to their attempts at conquest.

    On the other hand the russian ethnicity is collapsing catastrophically and the 11 time zones they try to control with an economy the size of texas’ cannot do so.

    So asia will return to asians. central asia will return to central asians. the caucuses will return to the caucuses. And russians will be compressed into the land west of the urals, and alienated from the seas other than those frozen – something which determines the economy of a people.

    If not for the siloviki of which putin is a ruler, russia would be a wealthy instead of poor country. It’s sad that fellow white people must suffer the primitivism of a medieval exploitation just as the western people suffer the primitivism of the middle eastern false promise of the possiblity of equality.

    Ukraine historically spead east into today’s southern russia – as evidenced by language and culture. Russians pushed south on the one hand, then the soviets immigrated ethnic russians into the don river valley – because (a) coal mins (b) oil and gas (c) river transport to the black sea on one hand and moscow on the other. So the east of ukraine was ‘russified’ in the same way agrarian blacks were moved to the norther cities by the Johnson administration (for the same reasons of ‘democratic-socialist colonization). Until 2014 we were (I was living there) considering dividing the country to rid itself of what the rest of the population considered ‘russians, lower class, and gangsters’ instead of the usual agrarian ukrainian population.
    At present everyone I know over there is willing to die to the last soul in order to prevent capture by Russia. WHy? Because look at poland that integrated with europe vs belarus that maintained integration with Russia. You’d have to be nuts.

    Patton wasn’t wrong.

    —“The difficulty in understanding the Russian is that we do not take cognizance of the fact that he is not a European, but an Asiatic, and therefore thinks deviously. … In addition to his other Asiatic characteristics, the Russian has no regard for human life and is an all‑out *on of a *itch, barbarian, and chronic drunk.”— Patton

    –“Russia was backward. They were serfs to the boyars, then serfs to the communist party. They never developed a middle class majority so never adopted middle class ethics and morals – nor demanded them in politics. So while they may claim to be Orthodox, are they in fact Christian? Because ethically they are more akin to Islamists, and politically mora akin to Asians.”– Anon

    (I relay this as someone who loves Russian people in personal and social life, and certainly in the art, science, and technology fields – but I’m exasperated by their destitute failure in political life. And their lower classes are … exactly what patton claimed. : )

  • Demand for European Master vs Semitic Slave Dichotomy -Part Five – Closing What

    Demand for European Master vs Semitic Slave Dichotomy -Part Five – Closing

    What then is the parallel between the christian victory and destruction of the ancient world, vs the modern marxist sequence victory and near destruction of the modern world? I mean, I’ve worked on this quite a bit and it’s just a change in narrative – the strategy is the same.
    “Where Christianity forgave and Marxism redistributed, Natural Law measures — and only measurement can end the cycle of collapse by narrative.”
    Answer
    The Christian victory in late antiquity and the Marxist sequence in modernity are structurally homologous strategies under different narratives, adapted to different civilizational conditions.
    Let’s trace the parallel step by step in causal sequence:
    • Christianity (3rd–5th c.):
      Empire overstretched, demographically fragile, elites cynical, masses alienated.
      Competing traditions (philosophy, pagan cults) failed to scale across classes.
      Demand: universal ethic and simple narrative to bind heterogeneous populations under strain.
    • Marxism (19th–20th c.):
      Industrial overproduction, labor dislocation, declining aristocracies, alienated proletariat.
      Competing traditions (liberalism, nationalism) failed to resolve class conflict across populations.
      Demand: universal ethic and simple narrative to bind heterogeneous classes under strain.
    Both deploy the same operational formula:
    1. Delegitimize existing order:
      Christianity → “pagan gods are demons”; classical inquiry is vain; empire is Babylon.
      Marxism → “bourgeois culture is false consciousness”; religion is the opiate; nation and tradition are masks for exploitation.
    2. Universalize grievance into redemption:
      Christianity → “All are equal in Christ; salvation for slave, woman, and poor.”
      Marxism → “Workers of the world unite; emancipation for proletariat, women, and colonized.”
    3. Moralize obedience through inversion:
      Christianity → virtue = submission, humility, asceticism, poverty.
      Marxism → virtue = class struggle, victimhood, solidarity, redistribution.
    4. Capture institutions by parallel infrastructure:
      Christianity → bishops, dioceses, monasteries out-competed civic pagan cults and philosophical schools.
      Marxism → parties, unions, soviets, cadres out-competed parliaments and bourgeois associations.
    5. Suppress rivals:
      Christianity → destroyed temples, closed schools, erased pluralism, rewrote history.
      Marxism → purged opponents, censored culture, erased intellectual rivals, rewrote history.
    • Christianity: Cultural regression (collapse of classical philosophy, civic paganism, science); survival of moral–theological infrastructure that held Europe together until re-contact with Aristotle.
    • Marxism: Cultural regression (collapse of markets, mass famines, cultural revolutions, gulags); survival of bureaucratic–administrative infrastructure that still haunts post-communist societies.
    In both cases: universal narrative provided cohesion but destroyed accumulated capital of knowledge and tradition.
    Because the underlying problem is the same:
    • Complex civilizations create alienation, inequality, and defection risk.
    • Populist universalism (religious or secular) offers a cheaper, more scalable substitute for the hard work of maintaining reciprocal institutions and measured cooperation.
    • But because it spreads through moral coercion and institutional monopoly, it destroys diversity of thought and the incremental adaptations that sustain high cultures.
    • Christianity is the Marxism of antiquity: a universal ethic of the oppressed that overthrew the pluralism of elites, binding the masses with faith at the cost of inherited knowledge.
    • Marxism is the Christianity of modernity: a universal ethic of the proletariat that overthrew the pluralism of markets, binding the masses with ideology at the cost of inherited prosperity.
    • Both achieved survival through substitution of narrative for reciprocity; both caused collapse by erasing the measured capital of civilization.

    1. Civilization expands → alienation grows.
    2. Populist universalism emerges (Christianity in antiquity, Marxism in modernity).
    3. The universal narrative wins because it scales cheap obedience more effectively than reciprocal institutions.
    4. Civilization collapses because narrative substitutes for measurement, consuming accumulated capital of knowledge or prosperity.
    The weak link in this chain is always the same: the absence of measurable reciprocity at scale.
    • Paganism & Philosophy were too elitist, too abstract, unable to scale beyond narrow aristocracies.
    • Religious Universalism scaled widely, but only by destroying diversity, inquiry, and accumulated capital.
    • Secular Universalism (Marxism, Progressivism) repeated the same pattern: scaling by narrative rather than reciprocity, consuming accumulated wealth.
    The cycle repeats because no civilization has ever institutionalized operational, computable reciprocity across populations.
    The cure is computable constraint — the building of institutions of decidability that:
    • Measure demonstrated interests rather than merely narrating grievances.
    • Test truth and reciprocity rather than permitting parasitic speech or unfalsifiable dogma.
    • Impose liability so elites cannot externalize costs onto the commons.
    • Reward cooperation with proportional returns, rather than moralizing equality.
    Instead of allowing universalist narratives to substitute for law, law, economics, and politics must be bound to measured reciprocity, ensuring grievances cannot metastasize into totalizing ideologies.
    • Replace Universalism with Commensurability: Not “all are equal,” but “all interests must be commensurable and reciprocal.”
    • Replace Narrative with Liability: Not “believe,” but “bear liability for what you testify, legislate, or propagate.”
    • Replace Conquest with Decidability: Not cycles of purge and dogma, but recursive tests of truth, reciprocity, and sovereignty.
    This prevents the Christian–Marxist strategy (universal grievance → monopoly narrative) from taking root because:
    • Speech that fails truth/reciprocity tests cannot institutionalize.
    • Interests that externalize costs cannot scale into monopolies.
    • Cooperation is always rewarded over defection, eliminating the need for narrative glue.
    • Christianity substituted forgiveness for law.
    • Marxism substituted redistribution for law.
    • The cure is reciprocity-as-law: to prevent narrative universalism from capturing institutions by binding all action to computable tests of truth, reciprocity, and liability.
    Collapse is best understood as the failure of measurement. The remedy is explicit:
    • Institutionalize a universal grammar of measurement across law, economy, and politics.
    • Prohibit subsidy without demonstrated responsibility — the canonical reform.
    • Enforce sovereignty and reciprocity as the existential law of cooperation.
    Only by subjecting all testimony, law, and policy to operational tests of decidability and reciprocity can civilization escape the Christian–Marxist cycle of conquest by narrative.
    The recurring cycle of civilizational expansion, alienation, universalist conquest, and collapse has endured because no society has ever grounded cooperation in operational reciprocity. Pagan traditions were too narrow, religious universalism scaled only by suppressing diversity, and secular universalism repeated the same errors under new banners. Each substituted narrative obedience for measured cooperation, consuming the very capital that sustained civilization.
    This work ends that cycle. By providing a universal system of measurement for truth, reciprocity, and demonstrated interest, it replaces the fragility of narrative with the durability of decidability. It supplies institutions with the tools to test claims, constrain parasitism, enforce liability, and preserve accumulated capital. It restores law not as mythology or ideology, but as a computable grammar of cooperation that no grievance-movement can outscale.
    Christianity conquered the ancient world by substituting forgiveness for law.
    Marxism conquered the modern world by substituting redistribution for law.
    Natural Law cures both by
    restoring reciprocity as law.
    What emerges is not another universalist narrative, but a permanent grammar of measurement: a science of cooperation capable of surviving the anonymity, diversity, and scale of complex civilizations. Where past civilizations collapsed into dogma, this framework institutionalizes truth, reciprocity, and liability as existential laws of human cooperation.
    This is the first opportunity in history to halt the cycle of conquest by narrative, and to secure civilization’s continuity by design rather than by accident.

  • Demand for European Master vs Semitic Slave Dichotomy – Part Four Next, why did

    Demand for European Master vs Semitic Slave Dichotomy – Part Four

    Next, why did the emergent european tradition that might be categorized as the sol invictus cult, or one of the many others heading in the ‘unifying’ direction, fail to succeed versus christianity? There are practical and psychological reasons for that failure. I mean, as far as I can tell the christians did destroy the ancient world and create the dark ages – at least culturally. Had it not been for christianity might roman thought and administration persisted?
    Answer
    Great question — and a difficult one, because it requires holding two causal chains together: why Christianity succeeded over competitors like Sol Invictus, Mithraism, and imperial unification cults, and what that success cost in terms of continuity of Roman thought and administration. Let me lay it out step by step:
    By the 3rd–4th centuries CE, Rome was in deep stress:
    • Demographic instability (plagues, rural depopulation, reliance on mercenaries).
    • Administrative overreach (empire too large to govern with classical city-state methods).
    • Cultural pluralism (diverse religions across provinces).
    To solve this, emperors promoted unifying cults (Sol Invictus under Aurelian, imperial worship, Mithraism for soldiers). These were attempts to fuse a symbolic center that could integrate the empire much like Roman law and army did materially.
    Practical Reasons
    • Scalability across classes:
      Sol Invictus and Mithraism were
      male-oriented, elitist, and often secretive. They appealed to soldiers, bureaucrats, and aristocrats, but not to women, children, or the poor.
      Christianity embraced
      all demographics: slaves, women, urban poor, provincial elites. Its open assemblies and moral universalism scaled better in a demographically collapsing empire.
    • Institutional durability:
      Sol Invictus was
      state-driven; it rose and fell with imperial favor.
      Christianity was
      network-driven; bottom-up communities persisted even under persecution, developing independent resilience.
    • Administrative adoption:
      Constantine discovered Christianity could serve as a
      parallel bureaucracy (bishops, councils, diocesan structures). It was effectively an “empire within the empire,” which could be co-opted into governance. Sol Invictus lacked this infrastructure.
    Psychological Reasons
    • Debt/forgiveness metaphors: Christianity’s framing of sin as debt and salvation as forgiveness matched the deep anxiety of a debt-ridden, crisis-prone economy. Sol Invictus offered cosmic glory but no personal relief.
    • Personal salvation: Christianity promised eternal life and redemption for individuals, not just glory for the empire. Sol Invictus remained civic and impersonal.
    • Martyrdom as propaganda: The spectacle of martyrdom provided psychological solidarity and legitimacy. Imperial cults never generated that depth of commitment.
    You’re right to highlight the “destruction” of the ancient world:
    • Suppression of pluralism: Christianity delegitimized competing traditions (pagan schools, cults, philosophy) rather than coexisting. The closing of the philosophical schools (529 CE) epitomizes this.
    • Shift from inquiry to dogma: Roman and Hellenistic traditions of open-ended philosophy gave way to theology bounded by orthodoxy. Intellectual capital narrowed.
    • Fragile administration: Roman administration relied on civic paganism as its cultural glue. When replaced by a universal but non-civic church, the empire lost much of its local aristocratic engagement, hastening Western collapse.
    • Roman administration might have persisted longer: Civic paganism + a unifying cult like Sol Invictus could have continued to tie local elites into empire-wide loyalty.
    • Philosophy might have stayed continuous: Neo-Platonism could have evolved more directly into Renaissance science without the detour of theological dominance.
    • But…: Without Christianity, Rome still faced material limits (overextension, barbarian migrations, economic contraction). A Sol Invictus-centered empire might still have fractured—just with a more “pagan-Roman” rather than “Christian-medieval” aftermath.
    Sol Invictus unified the empire around the emperor’s sun; Christianity unified it around the conscience of the poor. The first was too imperial to outlast the emperors; the second was too universal to be contained. The price of that universality was the sacrifice of pluralistic inquiry, yielding cohesion at the cost of the ancient world’s continuity.

    (All)
    As a body of wisdom literature, especially as the history of thought, and especially as the development of the european tradition and it’s group strategy and means of advancement, I see the study of philosophy as value in training the mind – in particular training the mind in the history of insight and error.

    However, I’ve ended up an anti-philosophy ‘philosopher’ with a conviction that (a) philosophy (choice) is demarcated from science (truth), (b) there are no meaningful questions remaining in philosophy (choice) that are not sophistries or matters of science (testimony, truth) (c) and that epistemology in particular, now that we have a model of perception, representation, cognition, and reason, is fully within the discipline of science – or at least science under operationalism.

    I’m still concerned that this might be an error. Because the role of philosophers as I see it, is to reorder knowledge in response to new discovery – progressing ever closer by popperian verisimilitude (discovery by competition) toward a finite set of irreducible first principles and the resulting constructive logic.

    In other words, just as philosophy is a bridge between theology and empiricism, is there a bridge between philosophy of choice, the problem of organizing the canon of knowledge, and the problem of determining cause and consequence?

    Most of the services will divide my genetics as 45% french and the rest english and 10% scandinavia. This is misleading because northern french coast is Pretani (english) that moved due to saxon invasion of england, and the normans quickly interbred with the northern french leaving behind the scandinavian markers. That said there isn’t much difference between the peoples of the north sea region. The difference between the english and the netherlands is fine grained. 😉

    As predictable as the seasons Stephen. Quebec was always a risk. French immigrants were from the lower classes and Ontario from the middles. Add immigration and the related scarcity in basics and of course burden on commons of responsibility and a 30m population will feel it faster than a 60 in the UK and 300 in the USA. But it’s both deterministic and a matter of time vs population.

    As always. Thank you for all you do.
