    Hmm.. I block on:

    …1) Decorum(criticism, defamation, slander, and cursing). It contributes nothing to the discourse and prohibits knowledge seekers with different views.
    …2) Intellectual dishonesty and poisoning the well (Trolls),
    …3) “Overconfidence given demonstrated competence” Which you’d classify as indefensibility and conspiracy.
    …4) Oddly: for memes, which I consider demonstrating incompetency and poisoning the well of discourse.

    And I don’t care about taboo subjects (I study them). Particularly Racism, Culture-ism, Sexism, and anti-semitism and anti-europeanism.

    Because there is a difference of decorum between description, criticism, defamation, and slander, which does nothing except poison the well of discourse – compared to data and explanation that dispassionately explain the causes of our taboos and conflicts.

    It wasn’t impossible to work on the problems of racism, sexism, anti-semitism, and anti-europeanism, and working on them only required pinching your nose and doing the hard work to understand the causes of the conflict sufficiently to figure out how to solve them by resolving those conflicts. If that means (as economists say “going slumming” to see how the other half lives thinks, talks, and behaves” then thats what it takes to uncover causality.

    Nothing is relative really. Just turns out that decidability is always and everywhere possible. And we don’t have to like some of the answers. But we can’t have nice things unless we accept and adapt to them.

    Evasion of taboos prevents resolution of taboos.
    The differences is, that some of us are willing to take the slings and arrows of discord, and some of us arent. And there is no shame in choosing which side of that line you want to stand on.

    We knew how to fix 08 (or at least for or five of us did) but the congress wouldn’t go for it. We can fix this one as well. And I’m not so confident that the congress will risist this time.

    IQ loss in congresss every decade isn’t helping anything.

    PRIGOZHIN JESTER COSTUME FOR HALLOWEEN?
    Ok. Setting aside this man’s character. And yes, I know thats trying to move an elephant around a cottage’s living room. But #Prigozhin is hysterical both when he’s trying to be and when he’s not. I mean, he’s such an archetypal Russian … at least, an archetypal Russian that isn’t the drunk type of archetypal Russian. For his sake I hope he can fly from upper storey windows.

    I love russians, ukrainians, and belarusians. I’d just prefer they’d get Russia out of the habit of empowering Czars. 😉

    So, have some Solyanka, Pelmeni, and Cucumber. Ok? Good. Now find sometihing useful to do like rounding up a few gopniks ‘with physical enthusiasm’. And maybe let some normal people govern for a bit? Good? Yes. That’s good. Thanks. Now go out and play.

    Q: “CURT: PLEASE DEFINE NATURAL LAW AND NATURAL GOVERNMENT?”
    The natural law of coopearation and non-conflict consists of the necessity of self determination by self determined means.
    To achieve a condition of natural law, we reciprocally insure one another by word, deed, and force of arms, by the limit on all behavior, to one another’s sovereignty in demostrated interests and reciprocity in display word and deed.
    The result is the prohibition on authority, resulting in a) the grant of decidability within the natural law to the jury, by procedures juried by judges, in the market for dispute resolution we call the courts; and b) the jury to of a legislature for the codification of common findings of the court, and jury of the commonality of contracts of the commons we call legislation, and finally c) with the monarchy (or substitute) as the judge and jury of decidabilty of last resort.
    So sovereignty in demostrated interests, reciprocity in display word and deed, commonality in dispute resolution, and concurrency on the choice of preferences is the optimum means by which human beings can organize into polities.
    There is no exception. The question is only whether a people are ethically and morally capable of it in the population that wishes to self govern.

    There is nothing in that statement that wasn’t known by the founders either implicitly or explicitly. Because it is the science of government. My only … surprise … is that they didn’t explicitly write it down in such analytic prose, and that because of it we’ve experienced more than a century of philosophical (fraud) and pseudoscientific (fraud) of warfare against the science of cooperation that they had captured for us in that most virtuous document created by man.

    THE NECESSITY OF ONE STRATEGIC CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM: HAZARDING.
    The hardest limitation to place on legislators when we reform our law and constitution consists of two parts: the prohibition on a) creating a moral hazard, and b) baiting into hazard to promote it.

    For this reason we have had to outlaw the PROPOSAL of legislation that violates the natural law, and in particular baiting into hazard by advocating a moral hazard. And punishment for doing so.

    All leftism consists of promoting a moral hazard, baiting into hazard, social construction of falsehoods to advocate it. Every leftist ambition is an effort to deny immutable laws of the universe: physical scarcity, behavioral amoral acquisitiveness, evolutionary load and selection, and the logic we used to describe those laws.

    All leftism is crime. Why? The evasion of responsibiilty and resulting hierarchy of standing for carrying the burdent of that responsibilty for incraesing numbers over increasing time frames.

    The law is ready to add to the constitution.
    Y’all just have to show up and make it happen.
