    WE HAVE BECOME THE GODS WE IMAGINED

    Church matters. Religion is an excuse for the psychological returns on church service. Religion’s community, ritual, oath feast, and myth (history) matter.

    There is no reason for lies any longer.

    Tell the Truth.

    We are Europeans.

    We are the gods we imagined.

    And we know the law of the gods:

    The laws of nature and the natural law of men.

    The rest are ours to make.

    The fact that we create asset holding vehicles to insulate them from liability cascades, does not mean that in order to act, someone or some group doesn’t act on behalf of the members of that asset store.

    @CorwinElder @FrostieCash @clairlemon That’s a sophistry Corwin. There is always and everywhere an owner of an entity. And a corporate entity exists solely as a means of limiting the liability of its members, in order to encourage investment, the result of which is taxes, for the gov’t as insurer of last resort.

    THE EUROPEAN SOCIAL ORDER

    The european social order is consistent from prehistory across all of europe with the variation caused by adaptation of the underlying social order (aristocratic egalitarianism, tripartism, sovereignty) to whatever economy was available.

    It’s these three civilizational strategies that make it so easy for a middle class, and middle class rule to emerge in european civilization and so hard in so many others.

    Read more history that’s not the “mythology of rebellion against the indo european aristocracy” because that’s the purpose of a christian > liberal > marxist > postmodernist education and it always has been – resistance.

    PROBLEMS THE POLICE FACE

    (1) police are expensive and patrol large territories in expensive vehicles with expensive equipment.

    (2) because police are expensive they do not travel in groups, and do not practice european policing of de-escalation- europe is small and densely populated.

    (3) Therefore officers rely on manipulation, deception, intimidation, and force, to subdue an individual and ‘drag him into the system’. Whereas you or I only need to break contact, they have to bring people into the system. The reason is that they don’t have discretionary power (as do sheriffs and judges.) This is because they can get sued if they are forgiving but you do something stupid. So their only defense is to get you into the system.

    (4) Revenue for a police department and justice system is funded by taxes, tickets and fines, and worst of all, property seizures. This has produced the malincentives we predicted.

    (5) Police are in a position of high risk, high responsibility, and under multiple conflicting incentives for which they can lose job and pension for any normal human error. This is a no-win situation for them. So they tend to develop procedures that are the safest for them and their careers, by choosing processes that put the officer in the position of making THE FEWEST DECISIONS. This is the problem.

    (6) The police do not control the bad laws that they operate under. Their job is to bring people into the system and let the system and system processes do the work – thereby (mostly) using time and isolation for heated afraid or excited people to calm down.

    (7) The data is what it is and the cops know the data: Black americans are disproportionately impulsively violent and will run, drug users are disproportionately unpredictable and dangerous even with bodily fluids or needles, and hispanic americans are disproportionately involved in gangs and dangerous, and white americans are disproportionately cunning and dangerous.

    (8) Police will not stay in the job if they have IQ’s over 105, so they hire average people for the job, because frankly it’s a lot of paperwork, and a lot of putting up with unpleasant people, and a lot of very high stress followed by very boring procedure. So for an average guy it’s a high income high status job – with decision making above his pay grade.

    (9) Some police forces are run well and others not, and there is no requirement that police come from the area nor stay in an area and learn the ‘crook book’ for the area. Instead, better police forces hire and train better officers, who then take positions that pay more money in less ‘prime’ territories.

    So there are just a lot of things going on. Where instead, we should probably have three classes of officers, at three pay grades, the top being criminal lawyers (proto-judges), the middle being today’s armed officers, and the bottom being de-escalation officers, and we should try to use numbers rather than concentration of force to deescalate and bring people in.

    If you want a Church that works, you need a church that is state funded, otherwise they sell false promise to the bottom.

    Our founders were only interested in prohibiting the choice of one christian sect over the others. they were presuming that christianity was the religion of the state, and only didn’t include it in the bill of rights because they didn’t want the state choosing the sect.

    Now that we know only Christianity is compatible with natural law that’s not a problem.

    A consulting company is, structurally, an intelligence gathering organization, that uses recruiting, tech, marketing, strategy, or finance as an excuse for information gathering – just as do state departments and intelligence agencies. Business is just war by other means. The intelligence sector is just business by other means. Politics is just war by other means. It’s the little people who lack agency and competitive ability that imagine organizations as other than productive rather than destructive means of warfare.)

    Your social class is determined by whether you are engaging in warfare, contributing to warfare, or free riding, rent seeking, or a parasitic dependent.

    The reasons SJWs infect organizations are (a) that we don’t separate via-positiva devotional organizations, from via-negativa enforcement organizations, (b) we don’t ALWAYS structure either form of organization as empirical technocracy – all successful bureaucracies are indepdendent and are independent because they’re purely empirical and technocratic. The moment they become sentimental or redistributive they fail.
