Using violence/and or coercion to advance social change usually backfires. It is like trying to fast grow a rose by yanking on it. Rather than letting the patience of sun and water do the job for you. The true progress of mankind is multi-generational and involves the gentle and peaceful parenting of children.

“We scarcely have any conscious left independent of government . Something is legal, therefore it is moral. Something is illegal, and therefore it is immoral. 

Welfare is legal, therefore it is not the forced redistribution of wealth. National debts are legal, therefore it is not the enslavement of the unborn. Fiat currency is legal tender therefore it is not mere electronic counterfeiting. War is not murder because….. 

These guys had balls so big they clunked form one side to the other like the fucking Big Ben.

The fundamental and committed change that happens in an individual is due to the elongation of perspective and the  re-balancing of cost and benefits.

I find it a generally wise practice to judge groups empirically, rather than according to their mission statements, public relation texts, or whatever the dictionary has to say about them. 

Reciting some dictionary definition and pretending that it somehow alters the accumulation of evidence of many decades is naive to say at the very least.

Saying that other people are in charge of your emotional state puts you in a category of helpless victimization.

Now there are very few people more dangerous than people who’ve categorized themselves as a helpless victim – It is almost always a prerequisite for an aggressive attack, predictable just like a sunrise is after nighttime. If you look at people who commit a lot of aggression, they almost always portray themselves as victims.

Illegitimate victimhood is almost always a precursor to aggression. 

Self-ownership means that you are responsible for the contents of your own head. You are responsible for what you think, you are responsible fo the values that you hold, and you are responsible for any gap between your ideals and your actions. You have the capacity to evaluation, to choose, change, to get new information, to explore new arguments, to confront wrong ideas within yourself, that is all part of self-ownership.

One of the great challenges of self-ownership is refusing the easy narcotic of blaming other people for your feelings. Blaming other people for your feeling is saying that your emotional apparatus is something that other people can play like a passive piano. That is to reject the responsibility of thinking and self-confrontation. Now when we are children, of course the values that our parents/teachers/priest give, and sometime inflict upon us, is to some degree against our will. However, once you reach adulthood, saying that other people are responsible for your emotional state is to abdicate self, to become passive, and therefor to become aggressive. 

In 1850, 98% of the polled American population were in favor of slavery. Today, nobody approves of slavery. Is that because people had some sort of fundamental moral epiphany?  Of course not. Slavery ended when the ruling class learned that is was more profitable to let slaves chose their own occupations. Slaves would be enthusiastic, and thus more productive.

100% ownership of human production is slavery, but 30-70% is civilization?

If you want to change the world, if you do want to live a life bigger than your lifespan, bigger than the prison of your soon to be dust, skull. If you wish you leap forward, you will be tripped by those who wished you immobile, those who don’t want your movement, your rise, your ascend, to make them feel like they are sinking into quicksand.  

In a sense, life is like quicksand. We sink into the invisible. We sink into the grave. We sink into history. We sink into nothingness. We sink into the star shit that we were born from. And soon, some star will explode and we will vaporize, and go scooting through the universe to make some 9 legged carbon beast, who himself will have this brief glimmer, this brief opportunity to do something. 

The universe is meaningless, but we can have meaning. There is no point to anything in the universe, except what we can will. This star shit that we are composed of has come together with this unbelievable opportunity. Would you want to be any other kind of matter in the world other than a human being? Of course not. Yet for most people, it’s like their mothers are giving birth to them squatting over a fucking grave. 

Out of a sweaty fuck, a sperm and an egg grows an Everest of human thought. Apply it, look backwards, do not let the fierily star stuff of your effect on human history be pounded, and turned out, and pissed on, and extinguished. Because you won’t get a second chance, after this change you’ll go back to being inert star shit forever and ever and ever. 

That’s the zoom out that is required, that’s the perspective needed for anyone who wants to improve the world, anyone who wants to improve the human condition in a fundamental way. That is how bright you have to burn, and if people don’t like your fire, let them put themselves out, not you.

There won’t be social change until the people who make the mistakes are held accountable. We all know that. If children are never marked down for failing to study, few children will study what they don’t like.

When I was young I was taught not to spend beyond my means, I was taught that debt is not wealth, I was taught that  I had to be responsible for my own actions, I was taught that if I failed, that I would have to suffer the consequences. That is the only way that I would learn.

Treat people the best you can when you first meet them, and after that you treat them as they treat you.

This idea that somehow age has prevalence over youth is ludicrous. There is no default benevolence to being someone’s senior. It doesn’t mean that you are wiser or more experienced. From what I have seen age only hardens your prejudices and brittles your bones.
Most people come and go without leaving a trace, they were born into prejudice, irrationality, superstition, and colonialism. These people replicated like a blind photocopier of history, trundling its way through the human gene pool. They replicated whatever they were told and regurgitate their prior trauma onto the fresh faces of their children to turn them into acidic, statists, nationalist, religious hags.

People hold on to imagined memories the way homeless people hold onto lottery tickets. Nostalgia is their crack cocaine, and the world is littered with the consequences of your addiction.

People’s histories remains a story that they tell us.  Our own history mostly consist of stories that we make up. They are docu-dramas at best. The most of who we think we are is a dramatic retelling of things we can barely remember.

If you entire philsophy is predicated on people will to change their minds based on reason and evidence, then guess what, you better well be the first one in line when it comes to changing your mind according to reason and evidence.

Do not demand of other people a standard that you are vehemently opposed to submitting to yourself.

We must reinvent ourselves using  the best of its ancient practices and kill worst of its modern manifestations. We need to reinvent ourselves in the image of reason and evidence,

The ones that oppose me will always lie, and the ones that are in the middle will always stab you in the back.

You are like a mutilated animal, where your primary functional organs of thinking and reasoning have been damaged.

The leftist pretent we can reinvent human nature and just assume that everything old is a prejudice.

The demons of politcal voilence are summed from the black hearts of the inarticulate, the enraged, the helpless, the dependant, the frustrated, and the evil.

When you justify using voilcence against me you are weakening and possibly breaking the bolt of self restrain against your supposed enemies as well as you allies.

You summon the demon of voilence thinking it will serve only you. It wont.

Voilence trives in the absense of values, live will find a way to it’s objective, if it cannot use words, it will use swords. Society has to make decisions, if we cannot reason with each other, we will claw each other.

The call voilence in the realm of speech, of ideas, of disagreements, of arguments, is a confession of spiritual emptyness, of a mere Nichian will to power, of a disire to dominate though vicious will, rather than colaborate and learn through shared reasoning.

Out churches have turned on us, they take hundres of millions of dollars from various governments for “socail” programmes. They are owned by the state, and do not reflect the will of God or the desire of their congregations.

Out universities have turned on us, they take hundres of millions of dollars from our governments to praise the state and damn freedom. They are owned by the state, they do not reflect the legacy that gave them birth.

Let go of reason and fuel your feelings. For sentiment is your only authentic self. Reason is sophistry, reason is useles… Now is the time for action, now is the time for decisiveness, now the stakes are so high and the enemy so close that the brutality of langauge and hammers is all we have left. Don’t think, don’t speak, don’t reason, act! Act from the nhilistic void left behind after your high priest hollowed out your humanity. Act with hate in your heart and self righteousness in your empty head. Do not stop, do not self reflect, do not reason, do not submit to evidence… Will the world you want! says the demon, and you are mine.

Jesters used to be a noble “speak back against the abusers of power” kind of profession. Think of the fool in King Lear “Thou shalt not have been old before thou were wise”. Constantly dismantling the vanity of the king. He is able to get away with it, and he is able to do it because he uses his ability to make people laugh to slip in unpallatable truths. That’s not what they do anymore, they have become benile service-of-the-state court jesters, only mocking and attacking anything which deminishes the power of their  masters. With their greasy pied piper faces, they play a sad little tune of confirmation bias, dancing everyone off a cliff into eventual dissolution.

To be famous and liked in the present is to be forgotten in the future. Because  popularity in the present means that you’re pleasing a lot of people, which means that you’re going with the cultural flow, which means that you  are not part of whatever builds the world next.
You have internalized your popularity. You   think that your fans love you, you think that you yourself are popular with the fans. The fans don’t  like you,  they don’t care about you, they don’t worship you, they have no interest in you. You are simply their dopimine dispenser of confirmation  bias. They are not laughing at your because you are funny or humourous, they are laughing with your because you give them the sweet relfief of not having to think for themselves. Of not being challanged by anyone or anything, by not being startled into thought.

Don’t have heroes, figure out what they do that makes you admire them and model that.

When evidence mounts against your hypothesis, you need to reevaluate.

To the others, To those who are so fearful of reality, and so fearful of independence, because they have become so slavishly dependent on the free googies, printed and borrowed, and manufactured,  and stolen by the state. Well, there is going to be an escalation because these people don’t believe anymore deep down in their heart that they have  the capacity to provide value in the market, that they have the capacity to provide any value  other than whining, nagging. raging and voting for free stuff. And to those people I say, you’re stronger than you think.

It is not the return of reality that you fear fundamentally,it is the continuation of dependence that you should fear.

It is impossible to have self esteem and to be a good example to your children, your community, and yourself. It’s impossible to look in the mirror and too see a straight spine, and to be an independent person with integrity, when you are a rageful parasite that sustains iteslf on the state.

What you fear, the fear of independence, the fear of not getting your free stuff, it feels like a kind of death. Which makes them want to fight to the death.  Like a cornered animal, you will become voilotile and dangerous. But it  is not death that approaches, it is freedom that approaches. Freedom out of the dungeon thatyou’ve been dwelling in. And yes at first the brightness burns, but it won’t last, ascend the stars and join us out here in the sunlight.
