    Democracy only exists if men let it exist. Men decide. They always have. They always will. 6% of the population is hard right. that’s 10% of the european population. That’s 30M people,who possess 80% of the weapons. Against a Military of 2m that must also defend world trade.

  • A consulting company acts as an agent that is outside of the political process

    October 26th, 2018 9:30 AM [M]ost of the time, a consulting company acts as an agent that is outside of the political process, so yes. Conversely, almost universally, the upper 1/2 of any consulting organization is far better than the upper 1% of any department they work for. The reason is simple: all companies that hire consultants within a 3 to 5 year window, are solving the same problems in all their customers within different political and incentive structures – and so none of the problems are ever difficult – only getting them done in the political structure of the organization. The problem is simple economics: people in companies invest in what they do, and change, success, or falure, threaten those investments (their property). A good consultant discovers these investments and promotes them and illustrates how they contributed to the current success. Unfortunately for example, most tech innovation other than improving user interface workflow tends to be a waste of money and all strategy and marketing and strategic consulting is just a way of circumventing a management organization malinvested in a prior.

  • What ‘Traditional’ Do You Mean?

    October 26th, 2018 8:22 AM WHAT ‘TRADITIONAL’ DO YOU MEAN? [T]raditional (Tory/Land power/Authority ), vs Whig (Liberal/Middle Class/Economic power), vs Burke (Reactionary: to the french revolution) When you say ‘tradition’ whose? The french and church (authoritarian submission) or the anglo saxon and Law (contractualism?) The vikings (and normans) were responsible for the preservation of rights of englishmen (contractualism). WHICH TRADITION? French, Catholic, Authoritarian that ended in the french revolution and the murder of the aristocracy, or the Anglo Saxon, Protestant, Contractualism that we succeeded with until invaded by socialists (jews and catholics) and women’s entry into the work and voting pools.

    I don’t deal in SHOULD. I deal in Rational Choice, and actions. Men decide. Men will always decide. Because in the end, it is a minority of men willing and able to overturn the status quo that determines all. Women ride on men’s permission. That is why you are privileged: Men.

    Q: GREG:

    – What goal did you want to accomplish with this book?

    – Do you think you accomplished it?

    — I see the book as providing motivation, arguments and strategy for gradually winning the discourse. Is that right?

    — What makes you think the idea of WN has reach? Especially with urbanites in the immigrant cities?

    — Can you explain bourgeoise morality( consumerism ) vs the civil society, vs the religious/spiritual models? (I think you missed the mark on that one).

    –You counsel against revisiting old regimes. Can you explain why that is? (I can explain why people are seeking a power narrative.)

    — Rhetorical Ammunition in support of which strategy?

    DIFFERENCES

    Greg: Philosophy, Education, Appeal to rational choice.

    Curt: Economics, Incentives, Law, License for Violence

    Greg: appeal to morality and reason.

    Curt: threat if reciprocity not met, licensing violence.

    Greg: we must via-positiva control culture and values. Requires permanent ideological indoctrination with all the vulnerabilities that have been seen in the 19th and 20thc.

    Curt: we must criminalize and punish that which is criminal, unethical, and immoral in display word and deed. Meaning: minority rule policed by individual self interest.

    Greg: Philosophy, Education, Religion: Via-positiva control

    Curt: Economics, Law, Markets: via negativa limits

    Greg: White Nationalism as ‘good and right’ and whites should prefer this (despite evidence they prefer doing nothing.)

    Curt: Nationalism instead of globalism, because it is the only means of forcing each of us to pay our own costs of domestication, and as such the only incentive not to exterminate, conquer and prey upon, or keep weak and powerless.

    Greg: reasons for whites to agree…

    Curt: voluntary disassociation and devolution of normative regulation to the states will create all the necessary incentives for coastals centrals, and souths to ‘go their own ways’. Collapse will occur by natural pressures of self interest.

    Greg: mobilize (something) (I don’t understand strategy)

    Curt: produce a constitution of rules, processes, and polities that are so desirable that we generate demand for change. Then threaten sufficient uprising by a tiny minority that the population and the military replace the government and enforce it.

    And if you,or they, had a positive solution (prescription) for a superior social order that you could put into operational terms, then you would. You don’t. Because if you did, the fraud and theft would be exposed for what it is: sophism for the purpose of institutional theft.

    @curtdoolittle @MrKennan1948 @WorMartiN The main confusion seems to be that you think I’m only talking about intent, I’m not. I’m literally showing how Hicks is misinterpreting the relevant theory and backing it up with sources. Again, you’re not addressing my points. You’re also not making arguments for your case.

    Thanks. Just to counter any misinterpretation of my side: (a) I am not a fan of crucifying leaders. (b) the first generation of leaders (like any technology) are always burned, (c) The MARKET FOR LEADERSHIP will produce what’s needed. Heroes try, and many die, so others may not.

    Of course it is. Which was Mao’s objective: to prevent separation of the north and south and the devolution of the chinese empire into states. That doesn’t explain why china is circumventing Bretton Woods, and exerting power over shipping lanes when the USA pays for it.
