Just look at this spectrum:

James(Psy): Aversarialism
Generalists
… … Jacob

There are a lot of people we don’t mention by name for any number of reasons. 😉

BECAUSE MARRIAGE IS A DEAD INSTITUTION
–“So, what you are saying is men who don’t want to lose their income to alimony and child support”–
No. I’m saying the evidentiary truth: That (a) there is no disparity in earnings between men and women other than that men prefer to work more hours with greater loyalty to the organization, and especially when under 35, women are out-earning men; in fact, women are demonstrating a preference for hyperconsumption and NOT marrying, and for NOT having children – and doing so in vast numbers: about half. (b) single households for men and women mean more expensive households for each, especially when women accumulate most debt (c) women have adopted the male behavior of sex for enjoyment not bonding for reciprocal care, so there is no sexual incentive for marriage and a vast disincentive for men (d) women determine whether a child is born or not (e) women initiate 80% of divorces and 90% when educated (f) Marriage with common property, alimony, and child support are no longer institutions of reciprocity (“fair” or “rational”). So marriage is a dead institution (g) that whoever wants the children must pay for them. (h) despite that mothers are detrimental parents after the age of eight, and fathers are superior parents after the age of eight. (i) but that mothers undermine fathers so that they cannot practically parent after eight.
Feminist actively sought to destroy all male support organizations of every kind from educational to social to religious to military – and through activist legislation destroyed them. At the same time feminists destroyed the institution of marriage. At the same time the state moved most physical labor work offshore reducing male income potential, while women occupied the ‘easy’ clerical jobs, driving men into higher risk occupations with greater accumulated cellular damage.
I’m pretty confident we will continue reversals of activist (positive) law that violated constitutional and natural rights will occur within the next decade: (a) restoring liability for interference in marriage, interference in occupation, and interference in business, (b) restoring fault and liability in divorce (c) specifically defining marriage as the public insurance of non-interference in the marriage; that marriage is a contract, including an exchange of limited powers of attorney, for reciprocal care, and the production of offspring into citizens capable of self-sufficiency; (d) ending common property, alimony, child support, and (e) and granting parental rights to the party that pays; with each parent paying for what they choose to. (f) and restoring parental liability for the behavior of their children.
As a result, I expect the restoration of reciprocity in relationships and the restoration of the durability of marriage, and the rapid reduction of arbitrary, predatory, and parasitic divorce, and the negative consequences for our society.
Every single positive-law test we have run has been a failure.
The court has just begun with abortion and 2nd amendment. The rest must and will follow. Because we’re going to run out of people, especially people with the intellectual capacity to run an advanced technological society within another generation if this continues.

Stoicism is reducible to the sum total of the “Greek way”. The Greeks, like the Romans, like the Atlantics, like the Americans, overexpanded, and in the absence of a ‘law’ (body of rules) for the ‘Greek > Roman > European > Anglosphere way, there is no means of intergenerational transfer or indoctrination sufficient to compensate for over expansion in the old world or ‘over-inclusion’ in the present age.
In other words, not means of resistance to degradation, given that the european way is the most cognitively, psychologically, and emotionally costly group strategy ever invented by mankind, because it maximizes individual responsibility and accountability for the self, the private, and the common.
So as usual, Christianity did provide a means for women and slaves and immigrants to obtain status and pretense of virtue and morality by ‘doing no harm’ instead of the Greek “contributing to the commons” (that insight should stick with you if you can manage it.).
But that integration of women, slaves, immigrants, created a pathway for the formation of elites, and elite institutions that favored their (irresponsibility) interests over the aristocratic (responsibility) interests, and between overexpansion, decline in reproduction, over-immigration, and warfare against the barbarians, the aristocracy and the civilization collapsed, and the religion prevented the aristocratic restoration of the empire
And the Christians set about destroying the arts, letters, schools, and killing or outcasting the philosophers ending the ‘greek way’ just like the marxist-to-woke purge of the academy, state, and media has occurred today.
So for those reasons (a) we are too tolerant of the Marxists, the Jewish intellectuals, and the Muslims who come to Europe to undermine us as did the Jewish Christians before them. And too tolerant of those who assist them in buying into their sedition against our civilization. (b) the British stored the european nation state to the greek model, and restored greco empiricism in reason and law, and smith restored the ethics of peace through reciprocity (c) the Americans did a fair job of documenting this in the constitution but only a ‘fair’ job. There are about eight major holes in it that we need to fix (with my excruciating level of precision. 😉 ) (d) We are (the rest of the institute and I) documenting it as a strictly constructed scientific (from first principles) law so that we have a ‘bible’ of European civ that is inviolable across time and space.
The remaining effort is to reform the natural law negative and the Christian love positiva into a reformation of the stoic method that can be taught as the equivalent of a non-false religion.
If I live long enough. 😉
Cheers
