YEP. LIKE I SAID:
Evolution of means of reputation.
Reputation > Religious > Legal > Credit > Information > AI.
As tech and population increase, so do the means of policing behavior.
The alternative is the city and nation state.
China does have a real problem however, since the population is so large and the chinese people are ‘not trustworthy’. So the government’s plan is to automate reputation management, just as they used the red army to impose policy in the past.

You know, the whole ‘find some baby and raise him to be our spiritual leader’ isn’t exactly a bad way of doing things. Neither is picking a family and raising them to rule like we did.

MARKET DEGENERACY
Market degeneracy occurs when we tolerate the satisfaction of demand and the taking of profits that come at the expense of normative, traditional, institutional, aesthetic, and informational capital.
The fact that you can sell heroin, MSG and SUgar rich foods, virtue signaling of the underclass, or the various equivalents, is a matter of demand, not a judgement of whether the satisfaction of that demand destroys accumulated capital.

The West Is Already and Always Has Been Polytheistic
September 18th, 2018 9:38 AM THE WEST IS ALREADY AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN POLYTHEISTIC [W]e have polytheism already: mythology, literature, history, biography, law, engineering, economics, medicine, science, mathematics, and logic. It is precisely the deconflation into markets of specialization and the different explanations of the universe and our relation to it, that provide that polytheism. Western man’s cult is the law, and always has been. His civic religion of heroic ancestor worship has been invaded by semitism, for the purpose of political conquest, and we are yet again, for the third time, trying to cast it off. But supernatural semitism has been evolved into pseudoscientific and pseudo-rational Semiticism (Abrahamism) in order to restore monopoly of the herd, and once again destroy the market for explanations between peoples of different abilities, that cooperate by trade using that market we call law, regardless of their differences. Semiticism is political warfare no different than the british selling of drugs to china – and even more evil, and always has been. It destroyed the ancient world and drove mankind into darkness. it destroyed egyptian civilization, mesopotamian, north african, european, and eventually greek (byzantine). What crime is greater than 1b dead and a thousand year dark age, then Semiticism (Abrahamism)? So choose Europeanism (Aristotelianism and Stoicism), Semiticism (Abrahamism), Hinduism or its reformation (Buddhism), Cinism (Confucianism). But of them which is demonstrably the least harmful, and most beneficial? Truth is enough. Literature is enough. Ancestors are enough. and all attempts at monopoly and submission are crimes against mankind. No more lies. Truth is enough.

Evil
–“I understood it to mean “we invented the concept of God’s as our highest ideals”.—Carl Onni
[Y]ou mean authoritarianism and monopoly rather than as in history, an extended family of various traits relying on various archetypes. It is very easy to convince people that what they do is good. It is very hard to show them that what they deem good is bad. Principally because their intuitions have been trained by deception and ritual, because there was no means of training them by reason and practice. No cult survives falsification by science, and no good of cults cannot be produced by training. There are only two religions that are not evil: stoicism and shintoism, with original buddhism simply a pre-scientific attempt (as in philosophy vs science) to produce an insular stoicism; where stoicism sought to produce a civic discipline.

We just need to restore the family as the primary insurer such that people struggle to produce families as insurers rather than the state as an insurer with poor judgement.

“Are you in favor of arranged marriages? I am, but I would love to hear your tak
—“Are you in favor of arranged marriages? I am, but I would love to hear your take”— Erik Lukovsky
Um. No, because I am not in favor of selling children into slavery for money which is what occurs all too often.
What I prefer is veto of proposal on grounds of insufficient demonstration of compatibility and merit to produce a home, income, and support of children for those under a certain age.
I am also in favor of parental monetary contribution to setting up a household and the near elimination of the marriage ‘celebration’ entirely, which has become an absurd debt with which to start a family.
via-negativa in all things.
There are too many malincentives at present: delayed childhood and its suppression of socialization and mating rituals.
Delayed childhood and it’s suppression of work experience in the service of others, and work experience in the generation of trades.
The deprivation of the young from income from labor such that they accumulate demand for consumption during the period where they wish to do the most exploration and signaling and mating rituals.
The issue of credit to the young who then indebt themselves. the issue of debilitating student loans to the young who then further indebt themselves, the combination of which is to spend the most fertile years at play rather than familial production.
The issue of housing interest such that it is almost impossible to pay for a home within the first generation of children, thereby freeing the parents to assist the next generation and save for retirement once the children are grown.
The issue of high taxation such that two incomes are necessary for the production of a household, rather than a second income for the purpose of extra entertainment and socialization.
Other people’s engagement is the optimum consumer good. The problem is sortition such that we can engage peers, and separate from inhibitors to our socialization.
