    DO YOU SEE THE EVOLUTION OF LYING? THE WAR ON TRUTH.

    1) Pre-weasel Words : Mysticism and Scriptural “Quotation” of Prophets (vs common sense and natural religion:myth)

    2) Weasel Words: Weasel Words and Reasonableness (vs reason and philosophy)

    3) Advanced weasel words: Rationalism and Philosophy (vs natural law and law)

    4) Very and advanced weasel words: Pseudoscience and Scientism (vs science)

    5) Abandoning Pretense: Political Correctness and Postmodernism (democracy)

    OMFG. Thousands of years of lying. LYING IS A GREAT STRATEGY.

    You do know that the Romans considered the Greeks immoral liars, right?

    CONTROVERSIAL? YES. BUT WHY?

    Yeah. I’m controversial. Although, It’s somewhat odd to me that advocating truth-telling, not-stealing, limiting public publication to truthful statements, converting to market rather than authoritarian government, and paying poor people in exchange for having just one kid, is controversial.

    Slaying sacred ideological cows in every era is controversial. But then, I don’t know why advocating deceitful speech, authoritarianism, theft, and systemic parasitism isn’t more controversial in every era.

  • THE MANY PHILOSOPHIES OF OUR ENEMIES, WHY WE FAILED, AND HOW WE CAN SUCCEED WITH

    THE MANY PHILOSOPHIES OF OUR ENEMIES, WHY WE FAILED, AND HOW WE CAN SUCCEED WITH TRUTH

    —“[They use] “Weasel Words+Reasonableness” because it contorts the will of people once they have their TRUST in a way that is slow and deliberate, [and imperceptible]. Alinsky noted that they would play by others rules and use that against them, cleverness is just another word for deceit”— Gerard MF

    Exactly… that’s the secret of it. That’s also why it utilizes our cognitive biases.

    —“Education makes men clever, it does not make them moral.”— (Various thinkers including Wellington and C.S. Lewis)

    Declining Spectrum: Moral, Wise, Smart, Witty, Clever, Deceitful

    This vulnerability is why we have a fleet of philosophies in order to appeal to the trust response of each dysgenic-progressive, meritocratic-libertarian, and eugenic-conservative group:

    1) Jewish-socialism/neo-puritan-postmodernism/anglo-feminism. (female family)

    2) Jewish Libertinism / Left Libertarianism (parasitism)

    3) Jewish-Russian Postmodernism/propagandism (deceit)

    4) Jewish-American Neo-Conservatism / Religious Conservatism (conquest)

    Notice that

    1) european christian conservatives (family),

    2) european classical liberals (economy),

    3) european aristocratic egalitarians(military), are all alienated from these methods.

    Because that’s what they’re designed to undermine.

    If you get it, then recent history makes complete sense.

    ROME HAD THE INVASIONS AND PLAGUES. THE WEST AND THE WORLD WAR AND THE INVASIONS. FOR THE SAME REASONS – OVEREXTENSION, AND EXPORT OF THEIR EMPIRICAL TECHNOLOGY TO PRIMITIVES.

    In both eras we failed to remilitarize our culture because we did not understand is principles:

    Heroism, Sovereignty, Truth, Testimony, Jury, Common Law, Property, Contract, Money, Interest, Accounting:

    Voluntary cooperation as a means of distributed calculation of correspondence with reality in real time.

    A human computing network whose test of equality is productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer, free of externalities to the contrary, and whose single rule of computability is non-parasitism: objective morality.

    This is the west and why we evolved faster than the rest: everything we do is a truth test. No other culture succeeded because they never could develop trust sufficiently to construct perpetual demand for truth.

    This is the reason for the militia. It creates that trust.

    This is the reason for roman christianity: it expands that trust in the absence of the military.

    This is the reason for markets: it expands that trust out of self interest on the part of the producer, distributor, seller and consumer.

    If you understand this you are able to defeat all critics as what they are: thieves by force, by bribery, by deceit.

    (maybe it isn’t obvious) (important ideas)

    Once the technology of truth telling exists, and once you have been informed that it exists, **you no longer err, you lie** at best out of willful ignorance.

    THAT is why testimonialism matters so much.

    TRUTH IS ENOUGH.

    They are parasites.

    Philosophy: “Testimonial Science”

    Well, we usually define philosophy as either the love of wisdom – in the ancient sense – or in the modern sense, the search for truth.

    My work is an effort to define truth, so that we can prohibit falsehood and the use of falsehood as a means of theft, parasitism, predation and conquest.

    So as far as I know I have produced the most total definition of truth and means of identifying it as has been achieved as yet. (and it seems hard to do better really.)

    This definition of truth causes the convergence of biology, morality, philosophy, law, and science. Which is in itself an achievement, and we call this kind of utility “explanatory power”. This truth has a great deal of explanatory power.

    I call this ‘existentially possible’ and ‘complete’ truth “Testimonial Truth”.

    And since science and philosophy are merged by using this definition of truth, I argue that philosophy should be reframed (relabeled) as “Testimonial Science”.

    Meaning, the science of speaking the truth.

    THE RECIPE OF OUR DESTRUCTION?

    1) WEASEL WORDS + REASONABLENESS -> 2) PSEUDOSCIENCE + RATIONALISM -> 3) MYTH + MYSTICISM -> 4) LYING + PROPAGANDA.

    Not sure why I didn’t think of this earlier but Weasel Words and Reasonableness, and Pseudoscience and Rationalism make use of the same basic technology for lying.

    What technology: Analogy, Loading, Framing, Overloading, and Suggestion.

    This is how they hacked our altruism.

    Damn.

    ( I really did it. That’s it. )

    Isn’t it how women talk to each other? Through indirection and suggestion? Whereas men talk in facts? So am I right that the jews and the church and now the academy and state weaponized the female communication strategy of superior empathy as a means of suggestion?

    That’s why they distribute it through women. They’re more open to suggestion than men. OMG.

    Yep.

    YOU SEE, YOU GOTTA KNOW WHAT YOU”RE TALKING ABOUT…

    Test of Meaning: “Can you understand this analogy to experience?”

    Test of Reasonableness: “Can I get away with saying this relationship exists?”

    Test of Rational: “Can this survive rigorous scrutiny?”

    Test of Rationalism: “Can I construct a non-contradictory proof of this?”

    Test of Empiricism: “Can I demonstrate and observe this in reality”

    Test of Science: “Do these demonstrations and observations survive criticism”

    Test of Testimonialism: “Has this statement survived criticism in every dimension possible?”

    These are the properties of the discipline of science.

    We did not develop our tradition of natural law because of science.

    We did not develop natural law by design.

    We developed it because the voluntary organization of professional warriors in battle required us to.

    Now I have to write a whole section in my Lying chapter on the use of ‘reasonableness’ and ‘weasel words’ in order to show how people justify whatever they want to.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weasel_wordWHAT ARE “WEASEL WORDS”?

    What is the test of ‘Reasonableness”

    Walter Block is the champion of using weasel words and reasonableness to construct immoral arguments by presenting a series of examples that appeal to moral intuitions, but do not evoke immoral intuitions that we would use to test them.

    Hoppe does not do this. He relies upon justificationary rationalism and the HOPE that there are enough good people in the world to construct a normative contract on top of NAP/IVP.
