Let me put something into perspective. America advocates markets and meritocracy and fixed borders. This sounds very ‘moral’ but it is just profitable for an advanced country to advocate meritocracy. For the same reason it is sensible for a less advanced country to advocate authoritarianism. We all pursue self intersets. It is just that sometimes, self interest is in everyone’s interest. And America’s self interest is most often in everyone’s interest. It’s not because americans are good or smart. it’s because it is more profitable.

Evidence that the left is top down organized by narrative-producers, is the shock and silence today just like the few days after the election, while they talk with one another trying to find some narrative.

Curt Doolittle updated his status.
—“Curt does your book include a new constitution, or is that a separate project? (With recent political events, leftists intensifying harassment, etc, I’m thinking we might need one sooner rather than later.)”—John Mark
Last summer I had to break the book apart because it was too big. And so I have two books, one shorter that is targeted to reforming libertarianism, and one much much longer targeted to revolution and constitution.
The first and shorter book is more technical, and the longer book more explanatory.
The other reason being that I had to burn a long time on the Grammars and I felt that I could now get the shorter book out ‘shortly’ and then take the technical component and move it into the larger book.
This means that the two books have similar technical content, but the larger book ignores ‘temporal’ issues (liberty, freedom, libertarianism), and contains entirely the new law.
What I *can* say is that I have definitely gotten to the point where I can explain everything to a freshman college student. Which I never thought would happen. Whether the book is as understandable as I can manage in a class environment I’m not sure.
And there is a certain virtue to timing. The Overton window for revolution has to be open to get maximum effect. Although we are certainly getting there as I expected…
The clock ticks,
the world turns,
the window opens,
anger burns.

The court will not reverse itself for the simple reason that marriage differences would inhibit mobility between states, and this is something that the court will never do. They cannot reverse it.

@curtdoolittle If the court rules that same-sex marriage is illegal, that circumvents the state legislatures that have passed same-sex marriage laws.

The court has said that the ONLY reason roe v wade was a mistake is that it should have been left to the states. But (a) they will not reverse it, (b) even if they did, they would only return it to the states. They will not COMPOUND what they consider their greatest mistake.

@curtdoolittle How do you figure? If the court rules that fetuses have due process rights and abortion denies them those rights, abortion becomes illegal everywhere. That will circumvent the state legislatures that have passed abortion rights laws.

What’s changing is either side’s ability to legislate from the bench, rather than the state and federal legislatures and the amendment process. We gain the Restoration of Rule of Law. The left cannot tolerate rule of law.
