    —“Curt I think you need to stay home because after the shit gets hot this country’s going to need a leader because a lot of the people on the right are getting tired of Trumps BS because he’s so pro-israel and pro-immigrant”—Robert Shumaker

    If I want street creed with those that cannot understand my work or even john’s simplification of it, I have to show I’m not pontificating from an armchair. I have to go regardless of the cost. Every man a father, a craftsman, a soldier, a sheriff, a warrior, a legislator, a judge, a king.

    —” I’d be curious to hear cowardice put into economic terms. I’d say something like: an irreciprocal transfer of risk onto the leadership/heros.”–Daniel T. Johnson

    It’s the conservative form of GSRRM. Guilting others for not acting on their behalf, as cover for their cowardice on acting on all of our behalf. It’s a fraud. Allegations of irreciprocity to cover one’s irreciprocity.

  • Apply P. Cultivate Agency

    Jan 23, 2020, 2:30 PM by Noah J Revoy Apply the P that you learned in your private life by shutting down people who are manipulating you via GSRRM. If you cant handle your business with your wife/kids/parents/friends/colleagues etc you aren’t going to be standing up to the authority of unjust government and its agents. Cultivate your Agency in little things and you will be ready to exercise your Agency in big things.

  • The Right to Self Determination Is the Right to Persistence

    Jan 24, 2020, 12:56 PM All people have both the right to self-determination, if only because no others have the right to deprive them of it. The only restitution available to those whose self-determination is thwarted is a return in kind. Therefore the only solutions to conflicts of self-determination are either separation or war. And in war, it is possible for either side to lose, and in losing, lose the possibility of self-determination. (To have a ‘right’ means ‘to be in the right’ under the natural law of reciprocity. Or it can mean that one has the right of demand of the court or state for the resolution of differences. One cannot ‘have’ a right.)

  • Vegetarianism

    ‘—“The libertarian case for veganism: Sentience extends to cows, chicken, pigs & even fish. These are beings with a consciousness. They experience pleasure and pain, bond with their young & pursue their own purposes, even if they are simple purposes such as seeking food”— via Quillette

    Let’s avoid conflating sentience, awareness, and the consciousness spectrum – and prevent overreach. These things are our food. Not abusing them and not eating them are two different things. And the reason not to abuse them is that we don’t want such people in our midst. (See attached definitions.) Secondly, pejoratively, the female nervous system evolved to carry a cognitive load that included empathy with offspring. Just as when men aren’t supplied with competition they behave dysfunctionally, when women aren’t supplied with emotional load they find “strange obsessions”. Vegetarianism, like animal activism, political activism, or gossiping and undermining, is among the strange obsessions that women devote their cognitive demand for emotional load to in the absence of more constructive outputs (children). The problem is there is no check on women. There are many checks on men’s antisocial behavior in fulfillment of demand for cognitive load – although sports, and video games are wasteful they aren’t harmful, and business and the arts are constructive. There are no such checks on women’s behavior.’ —“The libertarian case for veganism: Sentience extends to cows, chicken, pigs & even fish. These are beings with a consciousness.
