Free Speech, Charlottesville, Antifa, Trump (+ Update) (Grab Bag #2) [Video Script]

DWTWSBTWOTL
Well, it looks like the planned video is taking longer than I thought.

• It is a look at ethics and rights within the Thelemic system
• It will focus on OZ, Libræ, and Duty
• I may need to break it up into multiple parts.

This is a little semi-ranty video on

• Free Speech
• Charlottesville
• Trump’s speech on Charlottesville
• I also pour some hate on antifa

First an update

• The actual Navy stuff I am in Japan to do will be starting tomorrow.
• This will undoubtedly impact my free time.
• Yesterday, Saturday, I went to Yokohama to try and find some CDs
  • Musashi (六三四): Japanese progressive/folk metal band
  • Fushitsusha (不失者): Experimental Japanese rock band
  • Zeni Geva (ゼニゲバ): prog-rock, hardcore, heavy metal and noise-rock
  • Yōsei Teikoku (妖精帝國): Heavy/Goth/Symphonic Metal + EBM, darkwave, neoclassical, ethereal + Goth
• Finding a CD for my son, who wanted something called “Bump of Chicken” was pretty straight forward.
• Three separate shops and I only found the Yōsei Teikoku
  • However, I did find an interesting CD with the Crass logo on it. Guso Drop (偶想Drop)
  • I snagged it because I wanted to see what they were doing to my precious childhood memories.
  • I also found a first pressing CD of Current 93’s Dawn. I wonder if it has the original version of Great Black Time.
  • The original made extensive use of a sample from Barry McGuire’s Eve of Destruction.
  • This was removed in subsequent releases, I assume for copyright reasons.
  • Then there are two Japanese psychedelic rock albums: Acid Mother’s Temple & Subvert Blaze
  • Finally, a Japanese Metal Album (it was under Death Metal): Onmyo-za (陰陽座)
• While looking up the links for these artists, I discovered that Zeni Geva has a Bandcamp. Of course it only has one album on it.
• Also, I’ve changed my Ending song. Despite it being “Free Music” under the Creative Commons, it kept getting flagged.
  • Sometimes they would release the claim after I submitted the proof, but sometimes not.
  • I am way to lazy to repeat the same actions over and over.
  • So, While I liked Ami Deng’s “A Strange Community”, I am tired of dealing with the hassle of using it.

Anyway, now that I’ve established my music nerd bonafides, Let us move on.
There has been a lot of talk about what is and what isn’t free speech.

• This is bullshit.
• People trying to limit anyone else’s ability to speak is against free speech.
• Those who say we should not tolerate intolerance are stupid.
• You are being intolerant. You aren’t protecting society, you are just a coward.
• The people censoring Nazis are less than Nazis.
• They are hypocrites afraid to admit their own little authoritarian urges
• The little black Hitlers and Stalins infesting their hearts.

This is one of the few absolutes. Either you support free speech, no matter what is being said, or you do not. There is no middle ground.
That being said, I am already tired of Charlottesville.
However, one of the interesting tidbits was how one of the antifa (or whatever) protesters described the accident

• He specifically stated that the car slowed down than accelerated into the crowd.
• Then there are the reports after the guy’s initial capture about it possibly not having been on purpose.
• Add to this the reports, with suggestive video evidence, that the guys car had been hit with a bat.
  • Suggestive because the actual strike is not shown. The camera dips right before the cracking sound.
• This would support a narrative that the guy slowed down for the protesters
  • Then his car was hit by antifa and he freaked trying to escape.
  • This reaction on his part makes sense given the events of the day and the history of antifa
• Not that I am saying that this is what happened, but it is important to keep an open mind.

This is where I put in the obligatory “I am not a racist” disclaimer.

• Trust me. I view racism as pure laziness. If I hate you, it is because of you, not your race, sex, or gender.
• I agree with Evola’s distaste for concepts of racial purity. An arbitrary line was drawn and all mixing after that point is deemed “bad”. That is just dumb
• I also agree with Evola’s concept that the idea is the true Fatherland. Those who share in the idea are the citizens of my state.
  • Trust me, most white people don’t make it either.

I am also going to point out that Antifa (and their related ilk) are some of the worst examples of troglodytes masquerading as humans on this planet.

• They are worthless for anything but bashing heads
• Even then, they have a distressing tendency to bash the wrong heads
• They are the Marxist Lumpen-proletariat: 
  • identifies the class of outcast, degenerated and submerged elements that make up a section of the population of industrial centers" which include "beggars, prostitutes, gangsters, racketeers, swindlers, petty criminals, tramps, chronic unemployed or unemployables, persons who have been cast out by industry, and all sorts of declassed, degraded or degenerated elements."
• Stalin eventually had to purge them because they were too worthless for the communist society they thought they wanted
  • Not being suitable for work, they could not contribute to the state
  • Being prone to degeneracy and violence, they were a disruption to an ordered society
  • One of the few things I agree with Communism about is that the antifa need to be rounded up and shot.

Anyway, I want to say that I was truly shocked by Trump’s clear and nuanced speech regarding the violence. While it was amusing to hear “alt-Left” rather than Antifa, I do suppose it is more inclusive.
Also, the article criticizing the use of the term “Alt-Left” is bullshit. The ADL guy says it is inorganic, then goes on to specify its organic use and development.
Are people really so stupid that they cannot see this for what it is: obfuscation, lies, and propaganda?
So yeah, I hope this can tide you over until I finish working on the Thelemic Rights and Ethics script.

• Free Speech, you either support it or you don’t
• Don’t pretend you are censoring others to preserve our freedoms.
• You aren’t.
• Antifa are, and always have been, worthless cowards.
• It is almost worth having Communism imposed just so these (so-called) “people” would be rounded up and shot.

Charlottesville, Reverse Racism, Privilege, Feelings over Facts (Grab Bag #1)

DWTWSBTWOTL
This is just a grab bag of thoughts and ideas that I have neither the inclination nor time to flesh into stand alone videos.

• I may do more of these. I keep a list of topics and some just never gain the momentum to become full videos
• I’ll try to cull them periodically.
• I’ll comment on 
  • Charlottesville, 
  • The use of violence in protests, 
  • “Reverse Racism” and the “Prejudice+Power” equation
  • Privilege
  • And, Feelings over fact

First, the update

• Still in Japan.
• It is overcast and rainy, so the temperature is tolerable.
• I am from Oregon, so I am content with rain and overcast skies.

• Went to Shinjuku yesterday and scored a Kannon statue
  • If I priced it correctly on the web, I got it for a great price 
  • About ⅖ of the listed prices on line.
  • Then again, it could be a cheap knock off and I was taken for a ride.
• This video will be on Vid.Me and YouTube.
• The script will be on Minds and Blogger.

I was going to let some music play in the background, but it seems that audacity and Google Play don’t play well together. Or the internet just decided to be cranky at that exact moment.

Also, let me apologize for the background noise, the dehydrator/aircon is noisier than I would wish. I tried to remove it with Audacity, but a little remains.

Hard to be sympathetic toward hurt Antifa. According to a CNN article, dated August 13th, the deceased was part of the demonstration (not a random bystander as initially stated). I am not saying she deserved to die, nor am I saying I support the person who drove a car into a crowd of people.

However, the antifa tactics seem to have worked better than normal. A technique that I have seen in action since the 80s, and which I understand to derive from classic Marxist strategy (vis-a-vis the use of violence). Essentially, any protest has three sides. The “Marxists”, the Enemies of the “Marxists”, and the peaceful protesters. Typically, the “Marxists” position themselves so that the peaceful protesters are between them and the enemy. They will then provoke their enemy who will have to go through the peaceful protesters. This radicalizes them into the “Marxist” camp.

Antifa seems to have gotten complacent over the years. After decades of being able to attack whomever they want without repercussion, people have started fighting back. Sadly, it seems to have been escalated by one individual far beyond what antifa expected.

To summarize the timeline

• Antifa swarms against people suspected of wrongthink, like the nazi skinheads, they tended to attack in groups against individuals.
• Recently, the people being targeted have started using techniques to defend themselves (shields, squad tactics)
• Then, antifa seemed to also have shields (though they were more a mob than a squad)
• Then a guy drives a car into a massed horde of antifa

I can only anticipate more violence.

On another topic, there is no such thing as “Reverse Racism”, “Reverse Sexism”, etc. The use of “reverse” serves no other purpose than to legitimize bigotry. Just call it what it is.

Likewise, the formulation of Racism/Sexism = Prejudice + Power, in addition to being a way for various power brokers to maintain relevancy, also serves to dismiss, discredit, and justify bigotry. Further, it serves as a warning. In no way should we allow these people to have power. They have as much as admitted that the only difference between them and a Klan lynch-mob is the fact that they are powerless.

It is stupid to expect people to accept, or work toward, their own destruction. If you are working toward your own destruction, then you are stupid. Any “white” person eagerly looking forward to the extinction of the “white” race is stupid.

And on a related topic, can someone explain to me what is wrong with privilege? The basic framing is that privilege is somehow “bad”. What we call privilege is the summation of people working hard to provide their children with a better future. I hope and pray that I have managed to give my children greater privilege compared to what I had. They only know what spam tastes like because I’ve mad Hawaiian food. We always had money for Xmas. I have never “whipped” them for misbehavior. I tried to emphasize learning, questioning, and self-reliance.

Now, to inject a little “Social Darwinism” (as technique, rather than justification), our society values certain traits. Those who conform to those traits succeed. Those who have a longer history of modeling those traits have greater privilege. Those who came later would obviously have less privilege, since they have had less time to amass the cultural capital which becomes privilege.

If you don’t like the values promoted by a society, you would need to change them. This would necessitate figuring out what those values actually are (see my earlier video “On Reality”). The SJW crowd wants to change the system — which is fair, so do I — but fail to analyze the values and thus waste their time in moral outrage and contradictory impulses. I believe it was Delsol who commented on how modern man is terrified of certainty.

However, and this is another thing the SJWs miss, you aren’t eliminating privilege, you are merely replacing the method by which one gains privilege. It should go without saying that they are actually trying to impose a system by which they amass privilege.

I don’t mean to rail against the SJWs so much, but it is like they were created to exemplify everything I despise about modern society.

So, I just want to tell all of them, “Your feelings are shit.”

Every atrocity, whether it be the Inquisition, the genocidal and treacherous dealings with the Native Americans, the Reign of Terror, the Holocaust, the Stalinist Purges, the Maoist purges, the Cambodian Killing fields, etc, etc — all of these came from listening to feelings rather than facts.
Or are you going to argue that these things are actions based on cold, logical, and dispassionate facts?
Bigotry is based on feelings. All your cries to prioritize feelings over facts do is render you incapable of critical examination. You become more easily manipulated toward atrocity.

I repeat, “Your feelings are shit”.

So yeah, I hope you enjoyed this. One interesting tidbit, the Google stuff has made me look at all of the alternatives out there. I was worried I would have to become a goat-herding mystic living in a cave just to avoid the pernicious encroachment of our liberties.

I suppose the takeaways would be:

• Charlottesville sucks, but shouldn’t have been a surprise
• The regressives are right when they say “Reverse Racism” isn’t a thing, but for all the wrong reasons
• Prejudice + Power is the clearest argument against granting equal rights that could be promoted
• Privilege is inevitable
• Your feelings are shit.

On Reality (Video, Notes, and Comments)

DWTWSBTWOTL

Update

• In Japan
  • Haven’t had time to do much more than film people on the street from my balcony
  • Samsung S8+
• Trying to figure out how to unobtrusively use my phone to take videos as I walk around. No one seems to have a lanyard for a cell phone…
• These videos are being posted on Vid.Me and YouTube
• Also, anything that could be said on the Google Memo has been stated quite well by the article “The Google Memo: Four Scientists Respond” (link below)
• And, Black Pidgeon Speaks just uploaded a hilarious video regarding the Chinese tourists busted for Sieg Heiling outside the Reichstag.
  • If only they had been raping children instead, they would have gotten a free pass, just as many refugees have. Link Below.
• On with the show

[TKK Excerpt]
I do believe in an actual objective reality.

• However, do to the mediating force of our senses, we cannot actually apprehend this reality
• However, I feel that a strong basis for postulating its existence can be drawn from the various commonalities of experience.
  • We all apprehend the sun, we can experience its light and warmth directly.
  • We can observe its effects on plants, animals, etc.
  • There is some objective truth which we interpret as the sun

Sadly, it is not just the senses interposing themselves between us and objective reality

• Our minds puts forth a filter which sifts through the sensory input
• This filters prioritizes and interprets phenomenon.
• Now I admit that I find Metaphysics confusing
  • Sadly, for me, Metaphysics is very important in this schema.
  • “being as such”, or rather our conception of it colors our understanding of “reality”

Our metaphysics give rise to our values

• Or perhaps it is more accurate to say that our values derive from the metaphysical interpretation of objective reality.
• Sadly, few people examine the values they hold
• Fewer people look at the metaphysical constructs which give form to those values
  • And yes, Heidegger is also confusing.
• I doubt anyone has looked at pure objective reality freed from the forms given it by our values and metaphysics. 

OK, so if people do not look at their values or examine their metaphysics, how are these values made available to them?

• There are two expressions of socio-cultural values
  • Art
  • Religion
• Now I am using some special definitions for these terms, so I will clarify.
• Art covers  all creative endeavors: music, painting, sculpture, poetry, video
  • One could argue that sex and procreation are also art
  • Art is a primal expression of socio-cultural values
    • Even degraded as it often is in the modern age
    • Early medieval art was ugly because it reflected the Early Christian view that the world was corrupt
    • Likewise many modern artworks are ugly to reflect a similar antipathy to the world as it is.
    • Our liking of a piece of art is often dependent on how it reflects the internalized values we hold.
• Religion covers all ideologies that govern the relationship of the self and not-self.
  • Those things which give us a place in the world
  • Those things which define the I’s relationship to the not-I.
  • So, yes, in this sense, Atheism is Religion
  • So is Science

Below Religion is the manifestation of the Political

• Religion tends to focus on the relationship of the self to the eternal
• Politics is focused on the temporal.
  • One’s conception of the eternal will color one’s perceptions of the temporal.
• However, with the death of god, the center which anchored human society was broken.
• This has created some hybrid ideologies, such as Humanism, Communism, or Fascism.
• This also explains the cultish behavior of various SJWs and Groups like BAMN, Anti-fa, or Wobblies.
• As opiates are synthetic endorphins, so are these ideologies a synthetic “religion”.
• And just like heroin destroys the mind and body, so do these ideologies destroy the mind and soul.
  • But I digress

Now we finally get to Morals, which are the practical application of your values, religious beliefs, and political structures.

• For example, the moral belief that murder is bad derives from a value that holds human life as important, a religious injunction (e.g. Do not murder), and political laws (e.g. the criminalization of homicide).

This whole process can be summed by Chapter 38 of the Tao Teh Ching

• The Tao Teh Ching is my second favorite set of Scripture.
• Translation by Derek Lin from Taoism.net
  • Therefore, the Tao is lost, and then virtue
  • Virtue is lost, and then benevolence
  • Benevolence is lost, and then righteousness
  • Righteousness is lost, and then etiquette
  • Those who have etiquette
  • are a thin shell of loyalty and sincerity
  • And the beginning of chaos
• Modern society operates on a level far from “Reality”
• To be fair, this problem has been around for, at least, the 4th century BCE
  • Even I don’t posit that the Modern Age started that far back.

While I have explained these in a linear fashion, it should be noted that they are actually reciprocal. Things lower provide feedback to those higher. Those parallel feed into each other. It is all actually very dynamic. Religion defines the avenues of science and science validates or invalidates religion. God didn’t die of old age, Science killed him, and into the void flew a multitude of similar, but competing, ideologies.
What benefit does this knowledge/structure/System give us.

• Well we can see what trumps what and what influences what.
• It allows us to analyze our own system of beliefs
• To understand where these beliefs came from.

One of the biggest problems I see with modern social movements is their inability to understand what they are promoting.

• They are generally working at the level of morals with occasional bumps into Politics.
• They do not examine (and many do not even acknowledge) what I have termed the Religious elements.
• They conflate their morals with Values
  • This can be seen by the contradictory impulses that both support and oppose any given value.
  • They say they value equality, but posit unequal treatment of various group
  • They say they value women, but support groups who oppress women
  • They say they value pacifism, but continually vote for warmongers
  • They say they value certain ethnic groups, but promote policies that destroy those same groups.
• A simple analysis of their behavior through the system I have outlined, and an understanding of the hierarchical nature of these items would bring a level of sanity and clarity to our social interactions.

So, to sum up.

• Reality exists, but none of us can actually apprehend it objectively.
• Reality is mediated through a series of layers which reciprocally influence each other.
• Our values are expressed in our art and “religion”.
• The lowest of these is morality.
  • I sneer at the good person, those who can, do, those who can’t console themselves with how moral they are.
  • [Crass Clip]
• Only by examining these layers can we come to understand what we are doing
• Only by understanding what we are doing can we eliminate contradictory impulses
• Only by eliminating contradictory impulses can we succeed in implementing the values we actually hold.
• Further, an understanding of all of this is necessary to apply reason and chart a path to maximize our individual freedom and garner success for our beliefs.
• This illustrates some of what Crowley meant by “A Devil With Unity Would Be A God”.

As a side note:

• The occultist works with Art and Religion to manifest their Values.
• Magick is the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with will. (AC, MTP)

On Hate Speech (Video & Script)

DWTWSBTWOTL

Update:

• This is probably the last video I will put up before I fly to Japan
• Two Channels I have been enjoying lately are:
• Dr Layman
• Zarathrustra’s Serpent
• The two of them have managed to cover various topics I was planning on taking on
• They have also done it as well, or better, than I would have.
• I am not saying I agree with all of their positions, but if I only interacted with those who agreed with me on everything,
• I would never grow
• And I would be very, very lonely… 

[Orwell.Hate Truthspeakers]
There is a trend, pushed by authoritarians, mostly from the left (currently anyway) to "deplatform" Hate Speech.

[Clip: Gate Rory : Are you stupid]

The steps to winning any battle are: [Yukio Mishima]
1) Know yourself
2) Know your Enemy

Why would you not want people with opposing viewpoints to freely express themselves?[Massey. Authority as Truth-Truth as Authority]

I want to know who my enemies are

I want to know who I can trust to have my back and who will step away (or worse thrust a dagger into my back)

The Regressive Left seems to feel that if they deplatform these people, their opinions will go away [Consensus = Bliss.jpg]

• This is so incredibly stupid that I barely know where to start.
• Obviously, if unchallenged the ideas will never change.
• Further, you cannot challenge their ideas if you do not know what they are
• The best you can do is straw man their arguments, which will never convince anyone
• The phrase “Preaching to the Choir” comes to mind
• The main way in which we can change or mold opinions is through Dialectic [McDonalds vs Sanders]
• I am not an expert on Hegel or Marx, so I will  explain what I mean by the term
• You have two ideas that are in opposition (either to a lesser or greater degree)
• These ideas meet in the glory of battle
• The Stronger idea will win
• Now I admit to some assumptions [Truth vs Lies.jpg]
• First is that ideas closer to Truth (ie, the actual nature of reality) are stronger than ideas in opposition to the truth.
• This can be expressed via the biblical parable of the house built on sand (Matthew 7:24-27)
•  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. (KJV)
• The idea is that things in accordance with the fundamental nature of reality are “built upon a rock”. 
• My Second assumption is that both parties have similar logical and emotive capabilities. [If Someone doesn't Value Evidence]
• This one is actually harder for me to justify, but I hold that in aggregate, the groups should be roughly similar in their capability to use logic (whether they elect to do so or not)
• And that emotive arguments will be equally impassioned by each sides commitment to their ideals.
• The flaw in this is that the person holding the lesser truth is either missing facts or is not utilizing logic.
• In that case, their position deserves to die
• Anyway, If we accept these two premises, then it should be obvious that the dialectic process will move us closer to the truth

We should also point out that “deplatforming” will not stop them from spreading their ideas. [Orwell - Political Speech]

• Sure, it will allow you to indoctrinate those who feel security in adhering to what appears to be the dominant (or only) narrative
• However, you will cloak the alternative opinion in the aura of mystery, making it counter-cultural and rebellious
• Watson is right when he says “Conservatism is the NEW Counter-Culture”
• And, since they are deplatformed, there are no coherent arguments against what they are actually preaching.

So, we have to ask, why do some people try to deplatform other people? [O Sensei - Wise win before fighting]

• One reason could be the realization (if even on a subconscious level) of the divorce between their idea and reality
• They realize that they do not have any facts to support their position and do not wish to risk having their emotive arguments undermined
• This cognitive dissonance between what they believe and what reality is telling them is painful so they seek to avoid it.
• Whenever the Regressive Left tells you they are offended or that your words are violence, this is what they are referring to
• Ludovici, in his book The Child: An Adult’s Problem, discusses this as the conflict between the Pleasure Principle and the Principle of Reality.
• Essentially, their behavior is just a childish tantrum.
• Another reason could a general contempt for all other beings. [Hitler. People Don't think]
• The regressive left seems to feel that other people are generally incapable of thought
• They feel that they know the truth and that other people are just to primitive to grasp it
• Further, they feel that the opposing ideas are just to seductive
• They tell people that they are special and deserve to “oppress” other people.
• And that other people will fail to critically examine these ideas and be swayed to their service.
• Simply put, this is all projection on their part.
• In a rare bout of subconscious self-reflection, they realize that they are like this
• Since they feel they are more enlightened, they assume everyone else has their flaws but to a greater degree.

As you can see, the desire to deplatform of censor opposing opinions comes from feelings of Fear and Weakness [I am Friedrich Nietzsche und I approve of this message]

• If you disagree, please feel free to comment with logical alternative possibilities.
• The feelings of Fear and Weakness derive from the feelings of ressentiment (ala Nietzsche & Kierkegaard)
• People who believe they are right have no reason to fear opposing viewpoints
• Now some attempt to argue that the arguments have been made before and “resolved”
• This is funny to me
• Isn’t it a tenet of modern thought that we should re-examine and critique pre-existing convictions?
• They show their religious roots with their belief that it is good butcher everyone’s sacred cows but their own.

So, to all those who wish to censor,

[Rory Clip]

Yes, Rory, I think they are. Heaven help us all.

To sum up: [Voltaire. Who Rules - don't crit]

• Censorship, or “deplatforming”, is an ultimately self-defeating strategy
• It manifests the herd morality’s predilection for ressentiment
• This can be seen in its reactions based on fear and weakness
• It is also a way to hide from uncertainty & doubt by eliminating the cognitive dissonance which spurs us forward
• It is stagnating since new forms cannot arise from the process of dialectic
• Dialectic is the process of annihilating two opposing ideas to see a new idea arise
• An idea which is closer to the truth

As I have mentioned, I am about to fly off to Japan. [if i agreed with you]

• It is unlikely I will be able to post another video before I leave.
• My next planned video is on “Reality”
• You may have noticed that I referred to it repeatedly in this video
• Perhaps it would be a good idea to let you know what I mean by the term.

Truth is found in the rubble of falsehood.

Analysis: To the Cis Person angrily sharing news of the Trump transgender military ban

Display “Fair Use” Screen

DWTWSBTWOTL

I have several streams of information.

• Many are news from various political perspectives
• Another is Medium, which is basically an unfiltered op-ed site.

For some reason, Medium decided that I would be interested in an article titled [IMG 1]

• To the cis person angrily sharing news of the Trump transgender military ban
• By Angela Dumlao
• While I will provide the link below
• Do not harass or otherwise attack this person
• It won’t do any good
• It will probably make things worse

The article starts out with

• Hi. If you’re a cisgender person angrily sharing the news about Trump’s ban of transgender people in the military, consider the following.  
• First off, note the audience. Why do the SJWs focus on other people rather than their own?
• Seldom, if ever, do they try to improve their own group
• Neither do they talk impartially about a topic and let the chips fall where they may
• Rather they take a classic in-group/out-group position of moral rectitude and certainty
• Everything my tribe does is good
• From my position as good, I have the right to preach to you on how to correct your “evil”.
• Second, note the assumptions of proper moral behavior
• It is implied that the virtue signaling of outrage is proper
• And that you should be (naturally ) outraged by the ban
• Finally, note that whatever you are doing, it isn’t enough
• This establishes the moral superiority of the writer’s in-group
• It is also an indicator of the post-Christian orientation of the SJW ideology
• The concept of original sin has been identified with being “cisgender”
• As an aside, you’ll find that “sinner” has been replaced with “racist”, “sexist”, or “*-phobic”.
• Christians classified everything they hated as “satanic influence”. The left categorizes it as mental illness.
• That was a lot of unpacking for one sentence
• It’s good to find that I can get some use from my Humanities degree.

Next:

• This is not a future hypothetical in which we need to protect people who want to be in the military.  
• Actually, unless something new has come out, it is a future hypothetical as no guidance or policy changes have actually been promulgated to the military.
• Even so, The first sentence is backwards. The purpose of the military is to protect us. 
• I get what they are saying, but it rubs me raw to imply that the military are weak, emotionally unstable people needing protection.
• There are trans military serving as we speak. 
• Yes there are. While it may be implemented in the same way that the homosexual ban was implemented during WWII, staffing problems will probably mitigate any mass discharges.
• There are trans veterans waking up to this news.
• This sentence is problematic. (heh)
• Of trans veterans, this only affects (possibly) those currently serving.
• I have seen nothing to indicate that their veteran status would be changed or denied.

Now that the author has set up the requisite fear mongering, we move on to the meat of the sermon. 

• Are you framing your posts with a call to protect trans people? Similar to #ProtectTransKids — while this means well, it also infantilizes the trans community. Stand with trans people. Support trans people who have been fighting for their rights. See the difference?
• Strangely enough, I actually agree with part of this. As I mentioned in my video on “Goose & Gander”, most SJW activity infantilizes their targets.
• De Benoist discusses the over use of the term “right” in his excellent little book, Beyond Human Rights.
• However, it should be pointed out that Military Service is not a right.
• Military service is an obligation and responsibility, not a right. It is something you give, not something given to you.
• What do you do to support trans people? 
• Note the implication that you should be supporting trans people
• Not that there is anything wrong with supporting trans people
• But I find the call for an in-group to demand out-group support of their in-group to the possible detriment of those out-group members own in-groups to be kind of insular and stupid

•  I don’t need answers, but I want you to think about whether you:
• Actively use peoples’ pronouns both when they’re around and not around. Do you correct other cis people when they misgender someone? Use their deadname?
• This actually touches on a pet peeve of mine. You do not have pronouns. The language has pronouns. They do not belong to you and demanding other people accommodate your whims is childish.
• Thelema tells me I am a God, Should I demand everyone refer to me as “my Lord”?
• Further, I neither know nor care about your gender. I can only recognize the biological sex that you present. If you look like a woman, I will call you her/she. If a man, he/him.
• I gave up on the TOPY-inspired E-Prime genderless pronouns back in the early 90s.
• Dead name is just stupid. Oh my god, I am using the name by which I know &/or are accustomed to using
• Oh my god, I am using the name on your birth certificate &/or Identification card.
• The horrors are nigh unimaginable.

• Do you intake media by trans people? TV? Books? Articles? Art? Music?
• How would I know? Believe it or not, I “intake” media because I like it, not for moral reasons
• What a sad world where you cannot enjoy something until after you’ve done research to verify that it meets a moral litmus test
• I can think of one, but generally, I don’t ask people since it isn’t normally relevant to my enjoyment of the media.

• Do you laugh at jokes like Trump being made up with makeup? 
• I haven’t seen that one, but I do admit to laughing at Hitler in make-up [IMG Pink Hitler]. 
• There is the man, all dolled up like Christ.

• Do you realize this is transphobic? 
• I think you are doing violence to the language. A phobia is a fear. This is called humor. It relies on the juxtaposition of incongruous ideas & images.
• This is not funny because trans people are funny, it is funny because we can imagine the discomfort that the person depicted, or those of their idolaters, would feel.
• With the Hitler image, we are laughing at the outrage neo-nazi’s feel at Hitler being depicted in such a way.
• It actually doesn’t have anything to do with trans people.
• Do you perpetuate the idea that trans women are really men, even in the most innocent, subtle way?
• What does the phrase “really men” even mean? Are you perpetuating the idea that there is only one way to be a man?
• If you mean “Do they biologically express the condition which is most similar to the male role in our sexually dimorphic species”? Well then yes.
• Not that I spend a lot of time with it. It only really matters if we are having sex (I need to know where to put it) or trying to make children.
• [IMG Hitler & Stalin] Yeah, just try to unsee this one.

• Do you know about the epidemic of trans women of color being murdered in the U.S. and beyond? Do you share these articles? Do you sad react them? Do you avoid them?
• Nope to all of them.
• However, I have google.
• There were 15 killed (HRC Website) this year
• 2016 statistics puts the number of (self-identifying) Transgendered persons at a little over 800,000.
• The CDC reports that there are 5 homicides per 100,000 people.
• For the save of expediency, lets just double the half-year rate to 30.
• That would put the number of deaths at under 4 per 100,000
• Your epidemic is below the national average.
• Your epidemic is actually a statement about how non trans people are being killed more than trans people.
• You’ll pardon me if I decline your call to rectify this imbalance.
• Realized that I ran the original numbers for the entire trans community, but I reran the numbers for and they show the same thing.

• Do you actively use your privilege as a cis person to make the world better for your trans siblings?
• My only sibling is no more.
• Sibling, brother, sister, these are all societal roles that incur an obligation on both parties.
• If you’ve treated me as a brother and I have treated you as family, then I will use any so-called privilege to our benefit.
• Sadly, I come from a prole background, so my privilege is lacking.
• I hope I have given my children some privilege by virtue of my accomplishments

The rest of the article goes on to say “Trump Sucks” but you can be better than him. With some more rhetorical flourishes that have been addressed already.

This came about because people seemed to like me talking about the pro-pedophilia site more than they like me talking about the factors causing such things

• I’ll try to include these from time to time

My son told me that the video about pro-pedophilia was more popular because of his keen sensibilities.

I told him to go back to his room and play with his waifu.

Anyway, this article was chosen as indicative

• When we encounter this crap, you need to analyze it like this
• You need to ask
• Who benefits
• Are they practicing what they preach?
• Are their facts correct?
• How are they trying to sway you?
• Is there really anything more than whining and guilt-tripping?

Truth is found in the rubble of falsehood

A Brief Update

• My Reading List
• Completed Political Theology by Schmitt
• Rec’d Judas by Marvin Meyer (mainly for the Gospel of Judas)
• I’ve also picked up all of the translated works of Maria de Naglowska
• Pioneer of Sex Magick who worked with the better known Paschal Beverly Randolph
• She was, evidently, a significant influence on Evola.
• Finally, I rec’d a while ago, the first volume from the Arktos Kickstarter for translating Alain de Benoist’s View from the Right
• I get a lot of music, but I’d like to mention how I enjoy the new Laibach album, Thus Sprach Zarathrustra. 
• It is a soundtrack (as were Macbeth & Baptism) and is a refreshing change from Spectre.
• Internet Drama
• Francesca vs. Laci
• Not really surprised that Francesca learned that the “Skeptics” were going to VidCon and took steps to neuter the opposition
• She played on the inherently decent nature of the Skeptics she was interacting with
• In typically short sighted fashion, she outed herself once the immediate goal was met
• SJWs et al have poor impulse control & must curtail their ability to foresee how actions now will play out in the future — otherwise they couldn’t push their agenda
• She was probably scared of receiving blowback such as Laci Green rec’d
• Now I don’t consider Laci Green to be in the same boat.
• I am not saying she is “red pilled” (which is quickly becoming a meaningless term, used by each group to mean “agreeing with me”)
• But I also don’t believe that the regressives are so monolithic and powerful enough to employ Mata Haris
• Speaking of Internet, and YouTube in particular, these are some channels I enjoy
• Roaming Millenial
• Barbara4U2C
• Blaire White
• Sargon of Akkad // The Thinkery
• Armoured Skeptic
• Bearing
• I’ll be trying to upload this a bit early, as I am visiting my parents this weekend. Dutiful son and all that (Oh the oppression of societal roles)
• I will be forced to listen to Fox
• Not really a fan, since I hate yelling
• However it is interesting to see the contrast between what the Left claims they are saying and what they actually say
• This reminds me of the studies by Haidt
• He rose to prominence with some studies a while back that were reported as indicating that Confirmation Biases meant that Conservatives could not accept Contradictory facts
• Much less hooplah was made about his findings that it wasn’t confined to Conservatives
• Then the study that came out that showed that Conservatives understood Liberal’s positions far better than Liberals understood Conservative’s positions.
• Hilarious.

So, On with the show

Thelema is a Spiritual Philosophy, more akin to Nikāya Buddhism than Christianity.

• This means it can be applied to Theological positions ranging from Atheist to Superstitious.
• It should be noted that Crowley warned against dogmatically adhering to either extreme.
• Neither is truly a skeptical position as neither can be confirmed.
• The A.’.A.’. Is the spiritual order of Thelema. One could think of it as a monastic hermetic order.
• It’s motto is “We place no reliance on Virgin or pidgeon, Our method is Science, Our aim is Religion.” —Aleister Crowley; Motto for the Aஃ Aஃ (1907).
• The occult and spiritual practices of Thelema are meant to be subjected to the Scientific Method.
• Now this was the early 20th century, so there are some minor differences.
• Logical Irrelevance may not have been migrated into the Method of Science as Falsifiability in time for it to be incorporated into Crowley’s conception.

There are several philosophers in the A.’.A.’. Reading List.

• Among them is David Hume
• Hume was a Scottish Philosopher known for his philosophical empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism.
• Contributed to Scientific Method

Thelema has several works which encourage skepticism, so I will finish with some works from the Thelemic Canon: primarily The Book of Lies and Liber O.

• 333: 45 - Chinese Music; 51 - Terrier-Work
• Liber O: Part I

The Method of Science is not set in stone. It is a constantly evolving process

• Evidence of the Scientific Method, as we understand the term, can be found in the Ancient Egyptians (1600 BCE)
• Then we move through the Greek Philosophers (Aristotle, Plato)
• Through Theologians (Roger Bacon) to the Renaissance
• Skepticism was emphasized: Francis Bacon, Descartes, Hume, Galileo
• You can thank Francis Bacon for those lists you had to draw up in Science class of properties and observations
• Finally, the alchemist Isaac Newton
• Humes’s extreme skepticism lost out to neo-Kantianism.

The concept of falsifiability was introduced around 1934.

• This seems to be an extension of the logical concept of irrelevance.
• Logically, any statement that cannot be demonstrated as false is irrelevant (in the sense of Logic). Examples include
• God exists
• All is Buddha Nature
• Logic is the best system
• Note that this is not a value judgment, merely a comment on its provability.
• It is unlikely that this was in Crowley’s conception of the Method of Science.

I’d like to draw attention to Newton’s contribution. This would have been in Crowley’s conception

1. We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.
2. Therefore to the same natural effects we must, as far as possible, assign the same causes.
3. The qualities of bodies, which admit neither intension nor remission of degrees, and which are found to belong to all bodies within the reach of our experiments, are to be esteemed the universal qualities of all bodies whatsoever.
4. In experimental philosophy we are to look upon propositions collected by general induction from phænomena as accurately or very nearly true, notwithstanding any contrary hypotheses that may be imagined, until such time as other phænomena occur, by which they may either be made more accurate, or liable to exceptions.

• To explain all nature is too difficult a task for any one man or even for any one age. 'Tis much better to do a little with certainty, and leave the rest for others that come after you, than to explain all things.

What is the (current) Method of Science:

1. Define a question
2. Gather information and resources (observe)
3. Form an explanatory hypothesis (this includes the null hypothesis & falsifiability)
4. Test the hypothesis by performing an experiment and collecting data in a reproducible manner
5. Analyze the data
6. Interpret the data and draw conclusions that serve as a starting point for new hypothesis
7. Publish results
8. Retest (frequently done by other scientists)

• Six jumps back to three until the scientist is satisfied.

Not all of these steps are utilized every time, neither are they always used in this order.

• Scientists, like other philosophers, tend to be a contentious lot
• Anyone who prioritizes Science over Philosophy is an idiot, and ignorant of history.
• Gratuitous jab at Tyson, is he still relevant?

Given that the Occult is often dealing with observable phenomenon derived from unobservable phenomenon

• The Thelemite must beware Violating Newton’s 1st and 2nd principles. (Dangers of Mysticism)
• However, in as much is possible, he must apply to his own workings the Method of Science
• He must also avoid the problems rife  in the scientific community (especially in the Social Sciences) of falsifying data

David Hume was, among other things, a Scottish Philosopher from the 18th century.

• Highly Skeptic, perhaps to an unworkable degree
• Committed Atheist
• Key take-away (imo)
• While we are capable of reason, it is a mistake to categorize people as rational
• We use our reason to justify our emotive responses.
• That is, we use our reason to provide a justification for feeling what we feel
• A “rational being” is one who, when faced with contradictory facts, can actually change their feelings.
• The last item is my inference. Hume was far more pessimistic.
• Hume’s Essays are, as I mentioned, on the A.’.A.’.’s reading list.

By taking this into account, we really can gain a greater understanding of people’s behavior

• Haidt refers to Hume’s description as riding an elephant
• The elephant is our feelings, the rider is the reason.
• When we don’t realize we are riding an elephant, it is hard to control
• The first step to understanding, & thus becoming a rational (or more rational) being, is to realize we are on an elephant.
• Then we can direct the elephant.
• Never forget that it is the bigger and stronger partner, and when it rampages, there is little the shrieking rider can do to stop it.
• Haidt is important due to his studies in morality and the divide between (American) Liberals & Conservatives.
• His work is also useful for understanding modern socio-political behaviors, both IRL and OL.
• I plan on picking up his book, The Righteous Mind, soon. I’ve read many of his studies, but I would like to see where he takes it.

So, back to Thelema, or more accurately, Crowley.

In one of his works on practical instruction, Liber O vel Manus et Sagittae sub figurâ VI, part I, Crowley writes:

1. This book is very easy to misunderstand; readers are asked to use the most minute critical care in the study of it, even as we have done in its preparation.
2. In this book it is spoken of the Sephiroth and the Paths; of Spirits and Conjurations; of Gods, Spheres, Planes, and many other things which may or may not exist.
   It is immaterial whether these exist or not. By doing certain things certain results will follow; students are most earnestly warned against attributing objective reality or philosophic validity to any of them.
3. The advantages to be gained from them are chiefly these: (a) A widening of the horizon of the mind. (b) An improvement of the control of the mind.
4. The student, if he attains any success in the following practices, will find himself confronted by things (ideas or beings) too glorious or too dreadful to be described. It is essential that he remain the master of all that he beholds, hears or conceives; otherwise he will be the slave of illusion, and the prey of madness.
   Before entering upon any of these practices, the student should be in good health, and have attained a fair mastery of Asana, Pranayama and Dharana.
5. There is little danger that any student, however idle or stupid, will fail to get some result; but there is great danger that he will be led astray, obsessed and overwhelmed by his results, even though it be by those which it is necessary that he should attain. Too often, moreover, he mistaketh the first resting-place for the goal, and taketh off his armour as if he were a victor ere the fight is well begun.
   It is desirable that the student should never attach to any result the importance which it at first seems to possess.

I Want to draw particular attention to The second point.

• Despite the fact that Occultists regularly work with gods, angels, demons, spirits
• Despite the fact that we use models and maps of the heavens and spiritual realms
• We are enjoined to remain skeptical
• The map is not the territory
• The validity of things are found in their utility

The Book of Lies, also known as Liber 333, contains two items that I would like to draw attention to:

• Chinese Music (45)
• From Commentary: The attitude recommended is scepticism, but a scepticism under control. Doubt inhibits action, as much as faith blinds it. All the best Popes have been Atheists, but perhaps the greatest of them once remarked, “Quantum nobis prodest haec fabula Christi” [How much profit the story of Christ], attributed to Pope Leo X
• The ruler asserts facts as they are; the slave has therefore no option but to deny them passionately, in order to express his discontent. Hence such absurdities as "Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité", "In God we trust", and the like. Similarly we find people asserting today that woman is superior to man, and that all men are born equal.
• Terrier-Work (51)
• This one’s commentary is primarily technical, since the text itself is pretty clear.

So, to recap:

• The basic instructions for Thelema encourage both Skepticism and Critical Analysis
• This can be seen by the doctrinal requirements of adherence to “The Method of Science” and recommendations of Skeptical Philosophers
• I cannot recommend enough that any aspirant to Occult Knowledge, let alone Thelema, read “The Dangers of Mysticism”.
• Modern Spirituality, Religion, and the New Age movement have fallen into the trap Crowley warns against.

Truth is found in the rubble of falsehood.

Pro-Pedophilia Sites, or Conversations With My Children #1

DWTWSBTWOTL

So my third son (age 17) came into my room to tell me about Heart Progress.

• I have an open topic policy with my children
• This has been in place since they were very young
• I just pay attention to when they get bored (i.e. their question has been answered insofar as their interest & ability to follow allows)
• This has led to some very interesting dinner conversations.
• Heart Progress is a pro-pedophilia advocacy group
• Pardon, a Pedosexual advocacy group
• It is part of the pro-pedophilia movement that has been discussed by others

So he came to my room and asked if I had heard of Heart Progress

• It sounded vaguely familiar and I told him so
• He explained about it.
• It had come up in his Dischord

Now I am fairly libertine in my attitudes toward sex and sexuality

• I draw the line at sex with children, animals, and public copulation with inanimate objects.

We talked a bit

• Pedophilia normalization is not new
• It is just that we are able to hear from them unfiltered due to fewer layers of mediation on their viewpoint
• I.e., They can spew their bullshit narratives on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, etc without moderation
• Not that I am saying they should be censored. I want to know who these perverts are
• NAMBLA, the North American Man/Boy Love Association has been doing it for decades (1978)
• Hakim Bey, aka Peter Lamborn Wilson, is said to be a member.
• He did quite a bit to normalize Pedophilia in 80s Counter Cultural circles
• While there is no difference made by the Law, there is a difference between Pedophilia and Hebephilia/Ephebophilia
• Hebephilia/Ephebophilia is the sexual attraction to post-pubescent children, i.e. teens
• This can be understood as a vestige of biological imperatives 
• The target is able to breed.
• I don’t want to get into the legalities and pros and cons, but it is identifiable as a valid biological impetus
• This does not mean that it is OK, that is a social and intellectual stance
• We are all born to find, barring other factors, that those who are sexually mature enough to breed are sexually desirable.
• Pedophilia is the sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children
• They cannot breed. There is no biological impetus for this desire.
• This is a mental sickness.
• If you are born this way, then it is like Schizophrenia (of which some forms are believed to have biological causes) or Autism
• It needs to be treated and mitigated
• You are a danger to society and yourself

He also mentioned how the pedos claim that prepubescent children are “sexual beings”

• This is another case of taking a kernel of truth and misrepresenting it.
• Children have genitalia
• Children will often play with their genitalia because, even when underdeveloped, it feels good
• Children are also interested in what adults do, and thus have an (academic) interest in sex and sexuality
• This does not make them sexual beings
• Frankly, I cringe at the phrase “sexual beings”
• We are more than our genitals
• We are more than where we like to put our genitals
• Modern society focuses way to much on these things
• This is coming from a member of a Solar-Phallic cult and Tantrist/Sex-Magician.
• None of this means that it is alright to Fuck children

So, yeah, thank you Internet for making my role as a parent so much more entertaining.

Links, as always, are in the description

This video was a spur of the moment affair, and isn’t meant to count toward my Weekly Video update

That video will be on Skepticism and Thelema, covering the Method of Science and the Role of Doubt within the Thelemic system

Truth is found in the Rubble of Lies

Goose & Gander (Equality, Merit, Standards + Brief Personal Update)

DWTWSBTWOTL

A quick update:

• I’ve been sick, this has combined with my allergies to make me truly miserable.
• I am normally critical of “Big Pharma”, but thank god for modern medical science.
• I’ve also been distracted by getting my orders and travel ready for my trip to Japan this August.
• I may do a video montage as a bonus video
• Being sick may impair my ability to write, but it did give me time to play around with Audacity, hence the intro and outro Music.
• Also Libre Office Impress for Ending and Beginning titles.
• I’ve also been trying to figure out my image archive. I have some 20,000 images and I am trying to tag them so I can find them when I want to use them in my videos.
• And I found some cool stuff on the Free Music Archive, not that I have used it yet.
• Current Reads: re-reading “Political Theology” by Carl Schmitt. Reading “Aristokratia, Volume 1”
• So, on with the show

I really like the phrase “What is Good for the Goose is Good for the Gander.”

• Evidently it can be traced back about five centuries.
• It reflects my standards based, meritocratic leanings.
• It also confuses people who don’t know what a gander is.
• As the French Syndicalist, Georges Sorel, once said, “There is only one pleasure greater than that of being appreciated by intelligent people, and that is the pleasure of not being understood by blunder-heads, who are only capable of expressing in a kind of jargon what serves them in the place of thought.”

For those of you who do not know, this is a gander….

 And this is a goose.

• Yes, a Gander is a male goose. There is a verb “gander” which is slang for “look”, but we can ignore that.
• Just FYI, a baby Goose is called a gosling. 
  
  
  
  
  
• They are so cute before they become tasty.

I did find it interesting that the dictionary reverses the sex order of the saying.

• A strict reading says “What is good for the (Female) Goose is Good for the (Male) Gander.”
• However, Dictionary.Com gives: “What is good for a man is equally good for a woman; or, what a man can have or do, so can a woman have or do.”
• To be fair, Wiktionary.Com does give it in the correct order, and provides a sex-neutral version which points to the essence of the proverb’s meaning.

While the proverb is great, Let us not forget what it is referring to…

• What’s good for the goose is good for the gander, but in our modern world, your goose is still cooked.

Now, I believe in displayed merit. This means I do not believe in equality.

• Any two people, even identical twins, are not equal. 
• I do, however, believe in standards and judging people accordingly.
• After all, this is how we determine an individual’s merit.
• Some standards vary according to the situation
• I value the Mechanic more highly than the Physician when I need my car fixed.
• Likewise, I value the Physician more when I am sick.
• Others remain fairly consistent.
• E.g., I always value the truthful.
• Different standards apply to different classes of people.
• Politicians, the Military, and Policemen should be held to a higher standard in our society due to their duties and responsibilities.
• This posits an inherent societally based inequality.
• Any two groups held to different standards are not and cannot be equal
• Those who meet a higher standard are intrinsically superior to those who do not, or cannot, meet that standard.
• Note that an individual may transcend their group if they aspire to, and maintain, a higher standard than is expected of them by society.

Our society does not grant equal rights to children.

• Neither are they held to the same standards.
• If a child hits another child, it would be considered cruel to throw them in jail for assault.
• Likewise, we look on with amusement at some of their more creative interpretations of the world around them
• I have heard it said that we begin to really possess the capabilities for logical reasoning around age 15 and complete them around 25
• However studies have shown that neither high schools nor colleges teach critical thinking.
• I cannot find a link for the statistical age at which logical reasoning skills develop and when the brain structures are fully formed, so feel free to take that statement with a grain of salt.
• Children are not the equal of adults

Any group to which we give a “pass” for failing to adhere to the nominal standards of civilized behavior is automatically less

• Further, one could argue that they are being infantilized. 
• When we fail to hold groups such as BAMN, Antifa, or BLM accountable for acts of violence, theft, or any other violation of the norms of civilized behavior, we are positing that the are inferior beings who just can’t help themselves.
• Just like when a toddler smacks their sibling in the head for taking their toy.
• Actually, they are less than the child, since we admonish the child.
• Full disclosure, I’ve disliked Antifa since the early 90s when SCAR (Skins Committed Against Racism) and SHARP (Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice) were running around in gangs and beating up the Goths, Ravers, and Street Kids for not being members of their clique. They’ve also ruined several shows.
• When Feminists allow, even encourage, other women to act out in illogical rants, how are they any different than the caricatures of patronizing men who are believed to diminish women by smiling at their tantrums and saying “There, there” or “Don’t worry your pretty little head about it”.
• What’s really amusing is how complicit the SJW crowd is at diminishing and infantilizing themselves.
• A more conspiratorially minded person must wonder if the “movers & shakers” are merely encouraging the SJWs in order to make them more malleable, or whether it is a self-defeating monstrosity, a beast with no head.

The lazy, the loser, the ugly, the stupid, etc etc resent standards.

• They find their feelings hurt when they realize that they do not meet the standards.
• Nietzsche and Kierkegaard referred to this as “Ressentiment”
• According to Wikipedia, “Ressentiment is a sense of hostility directed at that which one identifies as the cause of one's frustration, that is, an assignment of blame for one's frustration.” I recommend the article, it is concise.
• I do like the Kierkegaard excerpt “The ressentiment which results from want of character can never understand that eminent distinction really is distinction. Neither does it understand itself by recognizing distinction negatively (as in the case of ostracism) but wants to drag it down, wants to belittle it so that it really ceases to be distinguished.”
• Nietzsche points out: “But it is not the same concept [of] ‘good’; on the contrary, one should ask who is actually evil in the sense of the morality of ressentiment. The stern reply is: precisely the ‘good’ person of the other morality, the noble, powerful, dominating one, but re-touched, re-interpreted and reviewed through the poisonous eye of ressentiment.”
• But I digress, suffice to say that if Nietzsche were a prophet, his accuracy in describing the Modern World would have put other prophets to shame.

Sadly, for these SJWs, the elimination of explicit standards merely results in the impositions of implicit standards.

• You see this in the way that dissent within the SJW community is vilified. 
• Thought Criminals, to salute Orwell, or Apostates, to recognize the post-Christian roots of their ideology, are savaged.
• Much like how the early Church needed Satan in order to bind the sects and factions together, SJWs need the “fascists” (whomever they may be on that day).
• LaVey explicitly mentions this in his Nine Satanic Statements
• I plan on discussing the lineal descent of Christianity to Post-Christian society (I.e. Modernity & Post-Modernity) in a later video
• We expect a certain level of “Otherizing” of their opponents by the SJW community (it is part and parcel of the human psyche).
• However, the internal infighting of the SJWs really shows their devotion to  Matthew 12:30, “Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.” (NIV)

Ursula K. Le Guin authored an interesting work called The Dispossessed.

• The work portrays an Anarcho-Communist society that managed to be successful enough that they were ceded the moon of their world.
• The original society and the new society were isolated from each other.
• While professing to be free, social convention created a set of unwritten laws.
• E.g., Names were assigned by a computer to ensure they were unique, people had to “volunteer” for the hard labor of terraforming the moon
• Most importantly, dialog with the original society was restricted, as were certain ideas which risked undermining their ideology
• The story revolves around contact being made and involves an interesting critique of both societies.
• Bringing this back to standards, Le Guin is a fantastic Author.
• She doesn’t need the artificially restricted pool of “Women Authors” in order to stand out.
• She can be held to, and evaluated by, the same standards that makes any author great
• She is an adult.

I should also point out that the inherent subjectivity of any given set of standards is a non-issue

• Even if we bypass the philosophical argument that all things are subjective by virtue of our perception and contextualizing process, and merely go for cultural comparisons
• We can point out that some standards are actually cross-cultural: don’t murder, don’t steal
• Also, we are pointing out cultural norms. The sphere of discussion is the culture from which we culturally construct the standards
• The arena in which we fight is actually pitting those of the current standards against those who seek to lower those standards
• Standards can be arranged in a hierarchy based upon their difficulty and social cohesion.
• It is harder to tell the truth and suffer a penalty than it is to lie and gain benefits. 
• Further, social cohesion is increased by virtue of being able to trust what the other person is saying.
• Thus the person who generally tells the truth is superior to the person who does not. 
• Also, those who hold truth-telling as a virtue are superior to those who do not.
• Another example
• It is generally accepted that controlling your emotions is more difficult than letting them sway you to acts of violence
• Randomly assaulting people, even if they are despicable people, lessons social cohesion by interjecting doubts about whether one will be a target of violence.
• Remember, Barabbas was chosen over Jesus
• Devadatta worked against Siddhartha
• MLK was shot
•  Thus, those who refrain from randomly assaulting people are superior to those who do not.
• And, those who criticize randomly assaulting people are superior to those who encourage randomly assaulting people.
• Decrying the subjectivity of any given set of standards is merely an attempt to divert the discussion. It is the instinctual reaction of people’s ressentiment.

So, to summarize:

• “What is good for one type is equally good for another type, despite any irrelevant differences between the types.”
• Standards exist, whether you want them to or not. Eliminating overt standards leads to the creation of covert standards
• Failure to hold a group to the same set of standards categorically relegates them to an inferior status
• People can aspire to a higher set of standards than set by societal expectations and this makes them superior.
• The subjectivity of standards is a non-argument
