    all civilizations collapse when the system of measurement fails and they resort to moralizing. Both sun tzu and machiavelli are teaching us the same lesson: the empirical is true, and moral. Moralizing is simply ignoring information and wishful thinking and that’s immoral.

    There is a reason for islam in the arab and indonesian worlds, and hinduism in the hindustani worlds. buddhism on se asian. christianity in the south american, secular christianity in the european world, confucianism in the east asian world etc.

    The majority determines the necessary means of preserving the means of perpetuating metaphysics traditions and norms.

    The west retains a grammar (method of storytelling) for every standard deviation of ability.

    We are unified by our law that is via negativa. We are unified by our ethics that are christian via-positiva. Those chrstian ethics are expressible in theological, rational, philosophical, empirical and operational terms.

  • WHAT DOES TRUTH MEAN? Existence refers to persistence. The universe exists, and

    WHAT DOES TRUTH MEAN?

    Existence refers to persistence.

    The universe exists, and the matter in it exists, because it persists – we can identify that it exists because we posses memory.

    We can identify patterns of constant relations in that persist in that universe – that universe is deterministic at any scale at which we can identify patterns of constant relations.

    We can generalize those patterns of constant relations.

    We can identify unique instances of those patterns of constant relations.

    We can name them.

    We name states(nouns), substitutes for states (pronouns), and properties of states (adjectives), operations (verbs), and properties of operations (adverbs) and we can agree or disagree (yes/no, agree disagree, approve reject)

    We can form and speak(display word and deed) transactions(phrases) and transaction sets (sentences), and sets of transaction sets (stories)

    We can agree with those transactions, transaction sets, and sets of transaction sets (true/false)

    We can speak in promise, suggestion, question, agreement, opposition, or silence.

    When we claim we speak truthfully we speak promissorily.

    One can speak truthfully or untruthfully.

    When we speak truthfully we speak coherently with categorically, internally (logically), externally (empirically), operationally(sequence of actions) consistency, and use due diligence to disambiguate any possibility of misinterpretation.

    We can speak untruthfully because of ignorance, error, bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, deceit, and denial.

    We are forever ignorant so while we have discovered how to gradually iterate to the most parsimonious hierarchy of consistent and commensurable paradigms (networks of continuous relations at given scales, and in given contexts), in that set of Grammars we call “science”.

    Truth can and only can consist of language in some grammar or other, reducible to analogy to experience, testable by human logical facility.

    So while patterns of cosntant relations exist in the universe, and we can name those patterns, that thing we call truth consists of langauge humans discover, organize and iteratively refine through a process of continuous recursive disambiguation as information increases.

    The human mind works by using sequences of stimuli (patterns) to produce predictions of fragments, object, models, spaces(places), borders, locations, and episodes.

    The mind then recursively predicts possibilities from those predictions using auto association.

    We then use attention to choose which auto associations to permute upon.

    This is how we imagine, and control what we imagine.

    Because we can imagine, we imagine that truth exists, when only phenomenon exists ,and truth consists of the formula by which we describe it.

    Man discovers constant relations and creates truthful descriptions of those constant relations.

    Truthful statements are made by man because only man (so far) speaks.

    When we say honest we say the speaker promises his words are free of suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, deceit and denial.

    When we say truthful, we mean, that operational name (description) which is not false, and satisfies market demand for decidability in the given context, given the present knowledge, and free of bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, and deceit, where the individual uttering it has performed due diligence against ignorance and error.

    When we claim a statement is true we promise that it satisfies market demand for decidability given the context. When we agree that a statement ‘is true’ that means that we AGREE that it satisfies market demand for decidability given the context.

    When we say ‘the truth’ we mean either a parsimonious operational name for the constant relations we refer to, or the MOST parsimonious name for the constant relations we refer to.

    Of the various civilizations which has produced the only method of due diligence with which to speak the most parsimonious categorically consistent, internally consistent, externally correspondent, operational, complete, and fully accounted operational names?

    Of the various civilizations which has paid the high cost of normalizing truth before face regardless of cost to self, competence, dominance hierarchy?

    Only man speaks, only man describes, only man describes in operational names, only operational names are complete and commensurable, only complete and commensurable operational names are parsimonious, only parsimony provides minimum difference between the most parsimonious possible and the current state of knowledge.

    I could work on this further but you get the point.

    That truth must be discovered, named, and uttered (in some form).

    Truth is made. Truth is uttered, Truth is promised, Truth satisfies the market demand for decidability. We consent to that decidability by equal means -or we do not.

    The universe merely exists.

    ECONOMICS IS JUST AN EXTENSION OF PHYSICS

    We can quantify all sorts of metrics of human behavior, but you’re confusing mathematics with physics, the same way most people confuse averages with instances or distributions. In other words, mathematics describes averages of points in time, it doesn’t not describe operations.Mathematics consist of operations that describe states and changes in states and averages. But not the underlying operations. Physics studies both the quantitative and the operational. Mathematics just the quantitative (positional). So while mathematics describes ‘sums’ operations describe changes in state.

    Here:

    At every “level’ of reality we discover an underlying limited number of operations (Grammar) producing some set of symmetries (outcomes, equilibria), and above that a new limited number of operations (Grammar, outcomes, equilibria)) that produce another set of symmetries, and above that and so on.

    So, we don’t yet know what causes the quantum level

    We have a fairly good idea what causes the subatomic level.

    we have a very good idea what causes the atomic level.

    We have such a good understanding of chemistry that it’s boring.

    We are getting a fair understanding of biochemistry (and that it’s mechanical).

    We are getting a beginning understanding of proteins (and that it’s mechanical(operational) )

    We are getting a beginning understanding of genetic reproduction (and that it’s mechanical- operational) .

    We are getting a fairly good understanding of cells.

    We have a more than fairly good understanding of multi-cellular (complex) organisms.

    I’ll stop there since I think you can see the pattern of some set of physically possible operations producing a finite set of physically possible states, followed by another set of physically possible operations producing a finite set of physically possible states, and that this process continues indefinitely, all the way to what we call consciousness.

    Now life buys us conservation of energy (defeat of entropy), but it’s still bound by the laws of physics (the underlying grammars).

    Memory buys us prediction. And prediction provides our ability to perform operations (actions) that improve our defeat of entropy.

    Increase in neural( brain) volume provides Competition between predictions, which provides us choices of options for defeating entropy.

    Increase in Brain volume provides iterations on predictions for increasing choices of defeating entropy the sequence of actions (or inactions for that matter).

    Increase in brain volume provides prediction of others predictions and predicting opportunities for cooperation that further improve our ability to capture and use energy by defeating entropy.

    Human ability to capture energy is limited by the grammar of human action (possible actions and sequences of actions and parallel combinations of other’s actions).

    So the grammar of human action consists in the physical, emotional-intuitionistic, and cognitive operations.

    Those operations are bounded by physical limitations of the grammars upon which they are constructed.

    Both Physics and Economics are bound by the same underlying grammars (laws) but because humans have memories, prediction, sentience, and consciousness, reason, calculation, symbolism, and computation, we can use debts and credits with each other to temporarily lend to each other, in presumption of future returns on that investment or debt.

    We don’t violate that physical law. Because humans observe reciprocity (equilibrium) just as the physical world obeys equilibrium (entropy). If we didn’t we wouldn’t be here.

    And so some people specialize in capitalization (productivity) and some people specialize in consumption, and others in parasitism or predation.

    But in the end, over time, we are limited by the physical laws of the universe. We can create productivity (as does life), or we can parasite upon other lives (as do bacteria and viruses).

    We cannot run the clock on parasitism (Socialism or gypsies) or conquest (islamism) forever because we will run out of hosts to prey upon.

    So economics is just physics with debits and credits (ability t steal, to borrow, to exchange,to produce, or to save) made possible by consciousness, by test of reciprocity (account balances), within the limit of proportionality (exit).

    Human limits are reciprocity (positive) with the limits of proportionality (negaitve).

    The subatomic level appears to run out of energy by maximum dissipation.

    The macro atomic level appears to run out of ability to compress energy.

    Sorry but it’s just Physics with the ability to use each other for debt and credit that we call ‘cooperation”.

    ON THE LIMITS OF MATHEMATICS

    Mathematics is the measurement of averages with limited variance in category, and economics is the measurement of averages in wide variance in category.

    The universe changes state by operations.

    We use mathematics to describe point changes.

    Calculus breaks down at the subatomic level.

    Calculus breaks down at the economic level.

    The problem is we don’t have a calculus of geometries (yet) and we may not have one until we solve either the subatomic problem, or the protein folding problem or the economic problem. I’m betting on the second mostly because both math and physics are lost in nonsense land.

  • THE UNREASONABLE EFFECTIVENESS OF P-LOGIC(LAW) IN HUMAN SCIENCES: PARADIGMS(META

    THE UNREASONABLE EFFECTIVENESS OF P-LOGIC(LAW) IN HUMAN SCIENCES: PARADIGMS(METAPHYSICS), PSYCHOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY, ECON, LAW, AND POLITICS

    P-Logic (Law) is (a) universally commensurable (b) value neutral, ( c) operational logic, of (d) decidability.

    Read that a few times and make sure you undrestand it. Universally commensurable, value neutral, operational logic, of decidability.

    The profound depth of that set of properties isn’t at all obvious, but just as saying math has extraordinary explanatory power in the physical sciences of constant temporal relations: P-logic (law) has equally extraordinary explanatory power in the cognitive sciences: paradigms(metaphysics), psychology, sociology, politics, group competitive strategy, ethics, and law.

    Physical sciences are mathematically predictive because categories and relations at a given resolution are constant both in and across time. The physical world can’t choose.

    Economic sciences are mathematically un-predictive, and only mathematically descriptive, and only operationally explanatory because relations (categories, weights(values), and operations) are inconstant across time – the consequence of Humans scheming and choosing with fragmentary and asymmetric information.

    Social Sciences are only operationally explanatory, not mathematically descriptive, nor mathematically predictive because while operations and incentives are constant, subject categories and values are inconstant, and unpredictable because humans scheme and choose using fragmentary and asymmetric information.

    P-Logic(law) provides universal explanatory power across the disciplines. Predictive power decreases with the inconstancy of relations over time. Many can create arbitrary relations within the limits of his perception, cognition, incentives, negotiation, and action, to plot and scheme against the course of events such that by some action or inaction he captures more caloric gains or opportunity for those gains, or prevents losses of opportunity or gains, than he would by not acting or acting.

    EXPLAINING (DEFINING) PROPERTARIANISM – FOR NEWBS:

    1 – The completion of the scientific method and all that it entails – which is a lot and why P is such a big program: it touches everything and it converts almost all psychological, social, and political speech to economic expressions – which is counter-intuitive because it’s scientific where our current psychological social, moral, and political speech is only normative or in the case of psychology sociology and politics, both pseudoscientific and sophomoric.

    2 – The explanation for western success in ancient and modern worlds (adaptive velocity because of our individual sovereignty and resulting traditional law of property/tort.)

    3 – The explanation of the different systems of argument used in the different civilizations, and in particular the abrahamic means of deceit used in the ancient world (judaism, Christianity, islam) and in the modern world (marxism, feminism, postmodernism, denialism/political correctness).

    EXPLANATION

    Do you know what a formal logic is? It’s grammar of the logic of inference using sets and binary truth or falsehood.

    Do you know what programming is? It’s a grammar of operational logic using binary truth or falsehood.

    Do you know what law is? It’s a formal operational rational grammar of conflict resolution, using ternary falsehood, truth candidacy, and undecidability.

    Do you know what tort law is? it’s a formal rational operational grammar of conflict resolution over demonstrated interests that we enumerate as property, using ternary logic of falsehood, truth candidacy, undecidability.

    Propertarianism is a formal (strict), operational(sequential action), grammar (vocabulary, grammar, syntax, logic), of Tort (demonstrated interests), and as a consequence a value neutral universal language (vocabulary, grammar, syntax, logic) across all disciplines (physical science, language-metaphysics, psychology, sociology, politics, ethics, law, group strategy), that allows us to falsify (test) every possible dimension of human action, intuition, cognition, and speech, for both testimonial possibility (truth) and reciprocity(ethics, morality, trespass, tort), and as a consequence allows us to create uninterpretable constitutions, and their enumerated rights and responsibilities, the most influential of which is the conversion of free speech to free truthful and reciprocal speech, in public, to the public, on matters public (commerce, economics, commons, politics, group strategy) by extending the involuntary warranty of due diligence and involuntary liability for the truthfulness and reciprocity of commercial speech to that of political speech. As such it allows us to outlaw hostile religions, and pseudo-religions especially the pseudoscientific and sophomoric restatements of supernatural judaism , christianity, and islam, in pseudoscientific and sophomoric and ir-reciprocal marxism, socialism, feminism, and postmodernism.

    Propertarianism is equivalent in scope to the revolutions of Aristotelian reason (Realism, Naturalism, Reason), the Empirical Revolution(Realism, Naturalism, Empiricism), in that it completes the scientific method by extending it from the physical to the psychological and social sciences, including that of law, politics, and group strategy.

    In other words, “Propertarianism consists of the completion of the Scientific Method; its application to the totality of human knowledge; producing a universally commensurable language of all thought; its embodiment in the common law of tort; resulting in a logical and scientific constitution; permitting the criminalization of ir-reciprocal and un-testifiable speech, and as a consequence the eradication of superstition, pseudoscience, sophism, fraud, and deceit from the commercial, financial, economic, political, and informational commons.”

    When we explain the reason for western success we discover:

    “Heroism and Excellence; Truth and Duty; Oath and Warranty; Sovereignty and Reciprocity; Law and Jury; And Voluntary Markets in Every Aspect of Life: Association, Cooperation, Production, Reproduction, Commons, Polities and War; The direction of surpluses to the production of commons and the returns therefrom; at the cost of suppression of the reproduction of the unproductive underclasses; and the Direction of Dominance Expression to the Production of Commons by a Distributed Dictatorship of Individually Sovereign People and the Reciprocal Warranty of Denial of Power To Any and All.”

    Propertarianism is (a) the completion of the Aristotelian program (b) the completion of the scientific method (c ) the logic and science of the social sciences, and (d) the Natural Law of Reciprocity under which all display word and deed is expressible and commensurable. (e) and the means of institutionalizing in a “Market for the Suppression of Fraud” the suppression of the greatest crime against humanity: the big lies that are responsible for the last dark age and the new one that the enemy has sought to bring about.
