LOVE REDUCES COSTS

THOSE WHO FEAR THE TRUTH – DISCOUNTING.
The truth may be an advantage, neutral, or disadvantage for you. But if the truth is a disadvantage, that does not mean that we need to lie to preserve that advantage. Instead, we need to determine what we have to trade to restore it. But there are two reasons that we cannot conduct a trade to restore an advantage: (a) the institutions make trade impossible (as does democracy), or (b) you seek avoiding the payment of the cost of the exchange to obtain the advantage.

ALT RIGHT, CONSERVATIVE OR RADICAL?
My thing is truth. Propertarianism solves the problem of cooperation in morally heterogeneous societies by the construction of a market for commons just as we constructed a market for goods and services: but incrementally suppressing parasitism in the production of commons (government) just as we incrementally suppressed parasitism in the production of goods and services (the market).
In that sense I am a radical(progressive), and propertarianism is radical (an alteration of the status quo. That propertarianism alters the status quo by suppressing the parasitism of dysgenic socialists, is either an improvement in truth or a devolution of free riding.
I take the objective and empirical position that independent of human perception, propertarianism provides the means of the pursuit of all forms of capital (including genetic) as well as human experience, by suppressing parasitism, and suppressing the reproduction of parasites, through a one-child policy.

THE ‘AGGRESSIVENESS’ OF NRx ADVOCATES
The NRx movement evolved as a criticism of political correctness, dishonesty, pseudo-rationalism, pseudoscience, and lying in politics.
The current alt-right has evolved into the practice of activism against political correctness, dishonesty, pseudo-rationalism, pseudoscience, and lying. In their ethos you are practicing political correctness (lying) not science or truth. If we all practice pragmatism we are merely all lying.
So the question is, how, given the truth, should we construct the commons (social order and the law that enforces it)?
It is not pleasant to look in the mirror and admit that one is just practicing political correctness (lying) for the purpose of self interest. And that for all intents and purposes one is no different from a neocon or socialist or any other niche that lies for the purpose of self-signal production.
TRUTH IS ENOUGH.

I don’t practice ‘belief’ or ‘believing’ or ‘faith’. I practice knowledge and truth telling.

We were wrong on freedom of speech instead of freedom of truthful speech – leaving room fo pseudoscience and deceit.

THE VALUE OF TRUTH INCREASES WITH THE SCALE OF THE CONSEQUENCES
The more parsimonious the statement of correspondence the more truth content and decidability. (This is a very loaded sentence.)
As scale increases or decreases, and as consequence increases, and as the number of people affected increase, then the value of truth increases.
Conversely, loose general rules expressed allegorically or in parable of one king or another are equally useful for individual action.
For these reasons we increasingly favor increases in precision (parsimony) as the division of labor and scale of polity have increased.
Because our collective actions are of greater consequences to those external to the decision.
That is the explanation for the value of different systems of thought.
Wisdom can be found many places but truth that survives falsification or criticism is a different thing altogether.
In matters of money or life and death I think most moral men prefer to be adjudicated by truth.

(important) [P]roperty-Absolutism violates the truth test of Full Accounting under Testimonialism; whereas the Non-Imposition of Costs does not. As such Property-Absolutism in Cosmopolitan Libertinism is a falsehood: a deceit for the purposes of theft, that forces retaliation, and violates the prohibition on the imposition of costs that makes rational cooperation preferable to predation.
