    COMBATTING THE PARASITE INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.

    by Luke Weinhagen

    The Parasite Industrial Complex branches:

    – Military Industrial Complex (masculine parasitism, right establishment politics)

    – Narrative Industrial Complex (feminine parasitism, left establishment politics)

    Many models of thought and politic have been proposed to combat either the Military Industrial Complex or the Narrative Industrial Complex.

    Propertarianism recognizes and combats the Parasite Industrial Complex.

    (excellent)

    “WE MUST RESTORE LIMITS TO THE TAKER”

    by Luke Weinhagen

    In taking ruthlessness (competition unhindered by forbearance) off the table we have allowed “I kill you and take your stuff” to be replaced with “I outvote you and take your stuff”.

    It is the same threat of violence underpinning both iterations, but the latter removes the limit of direct risk to the taker.

    We need to be ruthless enough to restore limits to the taker, no matter how the taker fills in the blank within the statement “I ________ you and take you stuff”.

    What the parasite fills the blank with (guilt, shame, lies, demographics, etc…), ruthlessness must match.

    In short – We need to say ‘No” and ruthlessly mean it.

    People like you have that luxury because of people like me. I do not begrudge your free riding. Only the pretense you do not free ride, and that we are not the necessary shoulders that your pretense of liberty stands upon. 😉

    @curtdoolittle @Septeus7 @Slysneak @Lord_Keynes2 @jappleby123 @Noahpinion @ProfSteveKeen Well, suffice it to say I disagree on the martial bit. I‘m more of a Light Side of the Force kind of guy myself.

    The only way to suppress them is with violence. only martial civilizations can produce enough violence. The more martial the civilization the more easily are rents suppressed. The longer rents are suppressed the longer the middle class grows, the more rents suppressed.

    @curtdoolittle @Septeus7 @Slysneak @Lord_Keynes2 @jappleby123 @Noahpinion @ProfSteveKeen I‘m a Georgist; I‘m all about suppressing unnatural market rents that are distorting economic self-interest. Protectionist trade policy also gives rise to such rents and serves the self-interest of protected firms at the expense of consumers (including other businesses).

    Yes it brought higher DENSITY, a FIXED TARGET of opportunity, and greater returns. CONVERSELY, not sure how they came to the other conclusion since fixed capital leaves a record, and mobile peoples don’t leave anything but middens. Non-violence is the new Nature Nurture fallacy.

    The advent of agriculture was also critical for the incitement of warfare, because it brought about the first real amassment of wealth, which made fighting worthwhile, especially in intrasexual competition among males. https://t.co/L4ZdUjkc81

    My understanding is that the evolution of assets (capital, property) due to farming increased the returns on raiding once horses were available so attackers could cover distance not possible on foot.

  • The Myth of The Noble Savages vs The the Debts of Ignoble Savages

    (unpleasant)(insensitivity warning) —“Violence is a precious resource. We civilised thewhole world using violence. That’s the history ofcivilisation: the incremental suppression of parasitismthrough the organised application of violence.”–Curt Doolittle —“Thoughts?”– Joel Harvey —“If by “parasitism” you mean “the extermination of indigenous people who had a reciprocal relationship with the world and then the forced conversion of there children, theft of there resources and obliteration of there memories so the could end up fat useless consumers” then yeah brother, We are lovely“— Damien Woodgate Yes, we dragged them out of ignorance, superstition, hard labor, poverty, starvation, disease, suffering, child mortality, early death, and endemic violence – and we did it for profit, and we did it against their will; and they fought us kicking and screaming, all the way; and they are unthankful for it. And other than profiting from it, and having a great european civil war over the profitability of it, and leaving the job unfinished, so rather than continue our work, that we had to fight the communists and now the islamists in their attempts at reversal of our work, while fighting the jews and puritans within our societies undermining our work, it seems to have done us no good – because they make up fantasy stories of the noble savage living peaceful lives in harmony with nature, instead of half domesticated animals at malthusian limits relentlessly preying upon one another in endemic competition, corruption, violence, and warfare. So yes, we failed to complete our program of profiting from the domestication of barely humane humans, and enforcing farming, industry, technology, science, medicine, plenty, literacy, relative peace, charity to women, and long lives upon them, and they are resentful, because they cannot bear the thought of thanking us when we succeeded, or thanking us for exterminating those who were the most primitive, the most work, and who were dedicated out failure. We are not equals as individuals as classes, as groups, polities, nations, civilizations, or “races” if that means anything more than ‘civilizations’. We dragged all of mankind out of barbarism. No man is a hero to his debtors. That said, none of us should expect respect or appreciation from our debtors. Our project was incomplete. However, in retrospect, we could have and perhaps should have treated white man’s burden as Pragmatic Heathen rather than Utopian Christian and instead of converting (educating) them, and improving their condition, simply engaged in organized replacement of them. Because history shows we always ‘lose’ when we are tolerant, ruling, or colonizing, and we have always ‘won’ and advanced ourselves and mankind rapidly whenever we conduct replacement. And that is the lesson that our ungrateful ‘Debtors’ have taught us (yet again). The evidence is rather glaringly obvious: Replacement of less domesticated (evolved) peoples is the dominant force in developmental history, and produces the optimum results for not only us, but for all mankind. Hence the necessity of separatism. That is the lesson of history.
