Is consequentialism right?
no. it's compelling but not the whole story. qualitative value matters a whole lot more than quantitative value, which consequentialism ignores.
So what if HBD is true? Does it matter, policy-wise? End affirmative action and "disparate impact" insanity, restore freedom of association -- these things should be done anyway. Base immigration on IQ, maybe. Why not just treat people as individuals and let the (group) chips fall wherever they may?
because racemixing is degenerate
How do you feel about the majority of the AltRight being composed of white populists who advocate the return of nothing more than a stop gap of Fascism instead of a proper system monarchy ?
fine with me
Emergent group think in the mass media (be it in the audience or the journalists), organizations, and blog comments sections is a threat to any serious discussion of ideas. Do you have any thoughts as to how to prevent a forum of ideas from degenerating into an ideological singularity?
yes
on More Right I forbid comments so only other people with blogs can respond
it's fairly simple
When will your book on monarchy be published?
Within a month hopefully. I'm only about 40 pages from the finish but I keep finding new things I have to read before completing it. Very soon, I promise.
This - http://sweettalkconversation.com/2015/03/24/toward-a-model-of-efficient-self-governance/ - sounds fucking terrible, to be frank. Populism with gallows. Why would Nick Land call it "insanely great"?
I have no idea
Is the fall of baseball in the national conscious because of baseball, or is it a function of who controls the mass media?
I don't know or care
"You can dazzle a pleb with rhetoric, or you can beat him with a stick, but never try to reason with him." Thoughts?
wrong
What do you think? http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/13/musk-thiel-hoffman-invest-1-billion-in-artificial-intelligence/
seems dangerous and stupid. I know Thiel doesn't have a clue, but I'm told Musk does. these people should just give all their money to MIRI, in my opinion.
with moreright gone, is your career as an nrx intellectual essentially dead at this point. you seem to have passed into the retirement phase.
it just lapsed since I let it lapse, I repaid the bill and it should be back online shortly lol
What is your opinion on public lashing as a form of corporal punishment for crimes?
stupid. it had its place but the idea now is that it's not as necessary since we've already selected ourselves to be less violent by murdering most of the murderers. among whites, violent crimes are so rare, I don't see the need for public lashing.
Would basic income be a pragmatic policy, provided those on the dole were removed from the breeding population? "We'll give you free porn, free fried food, free marijuana, free video games, free cable tv, and free housing, but we just need you to get a vasectomy first."
I'm not interested in the economics of maintaining large idle populations
What do you think of attempting to make Trump and his family a hereditary Monarchy? O I am asking this seriously as he will be riding a wave of tremendous anger at the established order. Thors Hammer
I think that's totally speculative at this point.
