(FB 1548867709 Timestamp) Life does “suck” for the ugly, stupid, ignorant. And life is much better for the attractive, smart, and knowledgeable. For the simple reason that downward associations are dead weight costs, and upward associations potential opportunities. Now this requires a half to one standard deviation in difference to apply. But it does apply. And it increases in cost and benefit the farther away from your position. Each of us has military, sexual, social, economic, and political value. Some of us just have very little of any of them. The only solution is limiting the reproduction of those that have no value so that they impose fewer costs and therefore frictions with prosperity and happiness.

(FB 1548825829 Timestamp) The Jevons Paradox is why you do NOT TRY TO SAVE ELECTRICITY. Why? It merely increases the consumption of electricity and demand for increased production of electricity. At your most optimum, you will simply transfer cleaner electrical production domestically to uncleaner electrical production overseas. ECONOMICS IS COUNTER-INTUITIVE. All human behavior is best understood as hydraulic. Something here is always offset by something there.

Engines matter because they convert otherwise useless forms of energy into useful work. And as the energy efficiency of engines increases, markets use more of them in more varied ways, which throughout history has resulted in increased overall energy use â a.k.a. the Jevons Paradox.”—

(FB 1548873295 Timestamp) NO. YOU HAVE FAITH IN A FRAUD. NOT REASON. —“….libertarians believe….”— Libertarian Party 0) Everything you subsidize will increase in consumption thereby increasing the overall proportion of productivity used to consume it. The only question is whether like engines of the animal, mechanical or digital categories, they produce higher returns for doing so – or not. 1) Libertarianism persists fallen angel version of man vs the risen beast, slowly domesticated by the violent imposition of demand for reciprocity under that law we call tort. Findings of Law, Legislation, and Regulation do in fact limit scams and frauds. … and …. 2) … so the problem is not law, and regulation, but the inability of the consumer to judge the product delivered to him, and the use of redistribution to compensate those who engage in fraud that takes advantage of that ignorance. 3) This is an example of a common (infantlie) libertarian trope:that the consumer can possess sufficient information to avoid irreciprocity, and that the insurer of last resort should not force due diligence in the service of the market by those who might abuse asymmetry of info. 4) Jewish law, which is the source of left libertarianism, only enforces the demand for volition,and not warranty. European law, which is the source of liberalism, enforces reciprocity and warranty. There is a reason for the historical incompatibility, of the two ethical systems. 5) We are faced today with not only the difference between Anglo classical liberal and reciprocal, germanic reciprocal proportional, french authoritarian socialist proportional, jewish voluntary unwarrantied, but now Islamic Authoritarian irreciprocal law of conquest. 6) Libertarians are wrong. Whether they are wrong because they are infantile, or wrong because they have parasitic preferences is immaterial. There is only one source of liberty: sovereignty and reciprocity, truth and duty, the law of tort and jury, violence and defense. 7) Sovereignty exists in fact. Liberty by the permission of the sovereign. Freedom by the utility of the sovereign. And sovereignty has but one source, and that is the organized application of violence to deny all other alternatives. 8) Welcome to the revolution. Those who fight will have sovereignty not liberty or freedom. Those who do not fight will have none.

(FB 1549592178 Timestamp) LETS UNDERSTAND: JOHN MARK IS SUCCESSFUL He’s meteorically successful. And that’s good and bad. I would like to have meteoric success after the institute had graduated a few courses, and the book was published, so that it was much harder to ‘make shit up’ rather than defend the work. So, this meteoric rise increases our reach at the expense of the burden of those on the right who have failed for years. Our success illustrates their failure. These members of the failed-right are envious of John’s success and are using his success as a coattail to ride on. By attacking our work (and me) they can generate interest from the tinfoil hat and zig-heil crowds. And so it’s expected. Now, my strategy with the libertine-libertarians, was to understand, and then destroy the movement as best I could – which at this point is pretty much the ‘lol-bertarians’. The failed-right needs the same treatment as the failed-libertarians. The winning right is not destined for the limited demographic of keyboard meme-warriors seeking ideology, nor those seeking paternal authority to save them, nor those seeking religion to save them. Those without agency cannot be saved – they can only stay out of the way. So my strategy is to pivot. Because the conservative mainstream is vast. And they care about policy, because they have agency, because they have skin in the game. And the failed-right is death sentence for anything touching it. The purpose of any movement is to obtain power. And to obtain power one needs something that can sell. And not to the fringe, but to the mainstream. Once one has power, then the future consists of a field of choices.
