    The progressive fantasy is that science and technology will save us from it.

    Tech Won’t Matter because we’ve exhausted consumption capacity (really) and are down to selling virtue signals and hedonism. We knew this by the early 00s.

    Almost all of us in the contrarian side of the economics discipline, especially Turpin, with Strauss and Howe in history, and of course Kondratiev, have predicted the collapse from 2020 to 2030.

    Most of us were certain by 2004 at the latest. I’ve been right about 2008, the teens, and even the insurrection in 2020 – although I assumed it would have been worse.

    Why? Demographics is destiny. And demographic destiny over time determines geostrategic equilibria.

    Why is there a problem today? In the postwar period we stopped all research on human differences, and instead pursued study of equality. This turns out to have been surprisingly catastrophic and even far more so than I’d expected.

    Why? Because the rate of prosperity (evolution) is dependent on the rate of evolutionary computation (competition), and that rate is dependent upon the demographic distribution more so … vastly more so … than anything else including geography and resource availability.

    So studying individual and group differences and seeking opportunities for reciprocity and a heterogeneous economy would have produced sustainable innovation and political harmony instead of conflict.

    So, between the decline in demographic quality (ability), demographic shrinkage, and demographic asymmetry (comparative advantage), geostrategic geo-equilibrium, and (surprisingly) the negative consequences of seeking equality in business, academy and state, that lowered rate of competitive innovation across all but a tiny spectrum.

    As for positives? Hope is not a strategy.

    The dark side is that these changes always produce war and collapse. I’ve said that the USA is going to be much poorer than europe is today, and europe will be as poor as ukraine and russia.

    Best place to live? Middle america. Waterways, food, oil. The only place that absolutely positively will have food. 😉

    9ofN And with the scientific and industrial revolutions, especially (a) the Darwinian revolution, and (b) mass education, and (c) the ascendance of the secular academy replacing the church, the value proposition of the church was permanently undermined on every leg of its stool.

    8ofN But with the industrial revolution we lifted the supernatural agrarian peasantry gradually into the pressure of urban life ‘jobs’, and social, normative, traditional, and religious competition – hence the preservation of the independence of Christian religious factions.

    1ofN In conversation with Dr Brad yesterday, I failed to clarify, that in retrospect, we see the attempt to unify Aryan Aristocratic empiricism and primacy of man over nature with Christian peasant supernaturalism and the primacy of submission to nature to tolerate those laws.

    LEARNING P-METHOD, LOGIC, SCIENCE, AND LAW

    — “Curt; What steps would you suggest I take towards sculpting myself into a proper representative of this science?” —

    I’ve asked around again, because asking how to master this science is something that’s asked frequently. And I always get the same answer.

    We are working on the constitution, the book, the wiki, and the slides and courseware from the book. This is a huge and difficult project. In the meantime, the best way is to watch the videos, learn the book as we produce it online, follow along on Twitter and telegram, and by asking questions, and participating, pick it up.

    As soon as we can restart the course at the institute we can formalize that education process. I tried running the course from the beginning but found it had to be simplified dramatically for anyone to follow it. So the extra few years we’ve worked on that have been fruitful.

    Response from Coach Noah Revoy :

    Ask someone how to bake a cake from scratch

    Every time they mention an ingredient, ask them to explain how to make it from scratch

    “Flour? How do I make that? Wheat? How do I grow that? A farm? How do I make a farm?” etc.

    Its impossible to explain anything from the beginning

    YES IT”S A BIT OF WORK TO LEARN…

    –“Curt, You skip a lot of steps in your logical chain”–

    1of4 Our legs are of different lengths so our gaits are of different lengths. Likewise, our cognitive networks are of different lengths so our steps in a chain of reasoning are of different lengths.

    2of4 There is a natural conflict between my attempts to enumerate a chain of reasoning (system of measurement) and the ability of individuals to identify the constant relations across the arc of the supply-demand curve.

    3of4 This is why my work is difficult to grasp: because I cannot resort to ideal types(sets) that are simple for the human mind, but I use sequences (supply-demand curves) as the points along the curve – that’s dense, but hopefully parsimonious enough for grasping and MEMORIZING.

    4of4 So yes, the work is difficult to understand at first just as programming languages are difficult to understand at first, just as the terminology of any scientific discipline requires work. And worse, you are habituated to relying on simple intuition in behavioral sciences.
