Saving America

Journal

There is a fix for this, we must immediately reconstitute our production economy.

This has several daunting but necessary preconditions

1) oust a majority of the senate and house, replacing them with good americans who are not corrupt fucking sell outs who collude with business and industry in order to reap personal benefits. People who are not Malthusian NWO shills.

1a) Eliminate globalization by requiring of all companies with any percentage of their business outsourced to a foreign country taxes equal to the difference in trade. That is to say that Walmart for instance would have to ultimately charge the customer More for a given Imported product than a domestically produced one, thus eliminating the incentive to import goods or to force its producers to manufacture overseas.
2) Nationalize the Federal Reserve System and hand over its architecture Immediately from the Federal Government to the States and local legislatures themselves.

3) Create and issue local currencies, create a national currency backed by silver.

4) Pull our troops out of every foreign country and close our military bases around the world. Rededicate the national guard to assisting in local non law enforcement roles of infrastructural refurbishment.

5) Eliminate the IRS and abolish the income tax. (I have written a recent post which delineates my proposal in some detail)

6) Unless the measure in my tax system are implemented immediately begin a process of incrementally tariffing imports. Eliminate subsidization on all GMO agribusiness. Nullify all standing free trade agreements such as NAFTA, GATT, etc.

7) Webster Tarpley in this WCR broadcast
youtube.com/view_play_list [youtube.com]
has listed several key steps which should be included in an overall plan of actions, including, but not limited to, halting all foreclosures on Productive businesses.

8) Leave the U.N. outrightly and cut all monies to them, Cut foreign aid to countries like Israel or anyone else who doesn’t need it.

9) Reconstitute the FDA completely as must be done with congress.

10) Immediately begin with the new congress to audit and peruse all standing governmental agencies, leaving not a stone unturned.

10a) Begin a gradual but inevitable process of eliminating a majority of the federal government, turning the power over to the states themselves and replacing the federal government with a networking systems infrastructure capable of Facilitating the states in matters where an individual state finds itself unable to resolve an issues on its own and requires the cooperation and resources of other states to address the problem. The goal should be to effectively return operational control of the nation over to the states themselves leaving only a system capable of bringing the combined resources of the states to bear AS DIRECTED BY THE STATES THEMSELVES on issues which daunt any one state of pose a threat to national sovereignty.  To this end the military infrastructure must be reconstituted and effectively treaties created in the form of state legislation which mandates that the states cooperate together in the event of a national threat such as invasion.

11) Eliminate all funding for the so-called War on Drugs and essentially legalize all drugs while funding a comprehensive health care initiative aimed at educating children of a certain age about the perils of drug abuse and facilitating those citizens who are addicted such that they do not pose a risk to the public weal.

12) Halt all immigration to the United States for a brief time period. Pour what assets we can into reconstituting a truly universal system of education whose goal is to produce from the population of the country Engineers, Software Programmers, and other highly skilled workers.

13) Begin a national push towards a truly 21st century economy, using robotics and other emergent technologies.

14) Immediately repeal all authorization for Genetic Patents, Outlaw the practice of patenting genetic information, dissolve existing companies by force if necessary.

15) Perhaps most importantly turn the bandwidth over to the people. Take the power of the fourth estate out of the hands of big corporations and put it into the hands of the american people (note that this issue would also be addressed during a review of the FCC and should be coupled with activities suggested in point #10).

Consider the following:

16) Eliminate the laws that allow corporations to be formed. Mandate the dissolution of existing corporations into their constituent businesses.

17) Outlaw the trading or ownership of stock save but by those with a vested interest in the company itself and require of the owners of any business that they must divest into the hands of the employees themselves what effectively amounts to a remainder of shares from the controlling majority.

Now, I am sure there are more things to be done and I am sure some people may take issues with items on this list, my goal here was to extemporaneously jot down a list of things which would retrieve our fate from the clutches of the leviathan which has subsumed our once happy nation. I have the fullest faith and confidence in the character of the inhabitants of this land.

One of the major point I have not addressed herein is Energy. It may be known to some I am curently studying a type of injected bussard configuration for IEC fusion. I am confident that if we reform our educational system and stabilize our economy that we can produce truly revolutionary forms of energy creation within a few decades. many emerging technologies will aid us in this pursuit but forthe time being we cannot be hoaxed into putting ecological sustainability ahead of human interests. We must be cautious as to how we produce our energy and in general we must not promote environmental degredation; however we cannot be so foolish as to imagine that others will hold themselves to our high standards, if we did this would put us at a fatal geostrategic disadvantage. A majority of evnironmental degredation has been empirically shown to be the result of industry, reforming our means of production and that which is produced, eliminating the ability for corporations to externalize costs onto the environment should be our goal. This does not mean co2, I cannot stress enough how nefarious this swindle has become, when I speak of environemtnal degredation I am referring to other substances, but rest assured I do not mean co2.

Philosophy of History · Jan 24, 6:33am

Journal

One must have the intellectual courage to, once and for all; admit that there are no histories, that all history is merely a subjective and partial account. That even if we had a vast sensory array capable of sensing the entire planet in real time down to the molecular scale, that if we could pass that data into a relational system where it could be digested by software and rationalized by human users, even then we would have merely a More Accurate Historical Account and not, as we should very much like to have, a real History!

This is intellectual conscience itself, this is the key to the final door and it is, embodied, wisdom, for it is the love of knowledge itself.

To attack oneself and one’s own proofs, to never rest and to even invite attack from others that is the sign of a healthy and robust mind.

To acknowledge that even a point particle model of the entire universe in real time would only offer us a Model and that no matter how sophisticated that model may be, it is still an incomplete synthetic reference, to admit this! Such admission is the sign of our true future, a future where man comes back into harmony with nature, where technology is instrumentation and not a mere crutch for a hobbling civilization. For beware, though you climb to the greatest height, if you do so with such a crutch, when you arrive there and put that crutch away your stance may falter!

Science as instrumentation which allows the greatest instrument, Mankind, to play the music of the spheres, for the universe truly is a sort of fractal hologram and we are, all of us, inextricably bound up in this integral nature. Man as a tuning fork which may resonate the purpose of organic life, man as steward over organic life not the master, not the servant, but mankind as a key, mankind as an instrument on which the meter of the universe can be made sensible as a sort of living music.

Atheists Don’t Believe in God

I can neither prove nor refute the existence of deity, as a quantum dualist I must assume that the unified field of energy underlying existence may in fact have a type of consciousness most akin to the taoist concept of “the way” or perhaps o the transcendentalist notion of the “over soul”. Is that deity? I cannot say, to be honest its not really a subject that interests me because i cant prove much about it so why even bother myself with it. thats what gets me about religious people, they all seem to think they can know the mind of god etc, ludicrous. if there were a god or gods how could anyone know what they think and if so why should anyone else belive them! The saddest thing is I am sure some religious person will come along and argue some insane inherency via a Kantian treatment. that is how silly people can be, they have a personal need for there to be a god and will go to any length to create a system which proves his existence.

In a fight against global corporatism and the dominance of an elite people of faith often are my natural allies, whats more I find that on the whole they are also decent people, perhaps even more so than my atheistic friends. But to be perfectly honest its about a horse a piece, neither group has an exclusive claim to be more ethical or humane.

I think it is important to tolerate both because one cannot prove or disprove the point of contention to within a reasonable degree of probability.

When it comes to the theoretical application of a process, or the perspective of that process as accounting for variation etc, again it is important to go with which system is more probably true based on evidence and examination. Available evidence suggests that “evolution” (which is a very complex concept and should not be mistakenly considered to be a codified set of principles in any sense although clearly one could make a list) is the most reasonable explanation for a range of aspects in cell biology. Although we may not understand this process completely, and we may never truly understand it thus not ruling out the hand of some unknown and unknowable god (for instance we might say that our thoughts have some influence on the process or our feelings this would hold with a qm view and yet seem metaphysical enough to insight notions of the divine), we can safely understand the process from the perspective analysis justifies.

The real danger here is interpretation and attitude. As with all science, it is a question of how you use it, it is a tool and one can wield a tool for humane and beneficial purposes or for brutal and inefficient ones.

Evolutionary theory was used to underwrite a gilded age philosophy of might makes right, it has been used again and again by some to underwrite their own arrogance and sense of entitlement to brutalize and dominate others. While we might never wish to dismiss the concept of a theory of rank, we must come to understand that absolute necessity of the whole, we can never make the mistake of thinking we know more than we do! Often one becomes arrogant because they think they understand a complex system well enough to safely make decisions, this is utter folly, one can never understand any system this well and must always make a decision with caution and a circumspection informed by tolerance.

History is full of examples where sweeping decisions were made about systems and the result was that those decisions broke the system because they overlooked or neglected what was vital, sweeping it away out of ignorance as to the integral nature of the system and the role each integer played!

Who knows, perhaps we atheists should learn something here, perhaps as a species we even Need this idea of god now more than ever. If not for ourselves than for others, though it bears incredible risks, it may still serve some vital purpose! Of course my instinct is not friendly to that view, I see religion as a source of manipulation and some of histories greatest atrocities.

Against transhumanism and the singularity

Journal

racing towards singularity like monkeys strapped to a rocket sled, all of them whooping and screeching to speed up, OBLIVIOUS to the wall we are about to hit.

genetically tailored children, cyberization, transhumanism, AI, artilects, organic chimeras.

we are in a desperate race toward oblivion and everyone is leaning on the accelerator. everyone thinks this is a very good thing and it is, in fact, our doom. as dangerous as the internecine conflict wrought by tyranny and religion but far more complete and utterly devastating.

what we are witnessing is not a migration to a new kind of humanity, we are witnessing the end of humanity itself. a very peculiar occurrence in my view, because, as a student of human history, I would argue that never in the history of our species has the species, as a species, really possessed humanity to being with.

how typically human of us to destroy the opportunity for something precious in the pursuit of something fantastic. eschaton, singularity and any other term is essentially the same as apocalypse.

What and who you are now is irrelevant, you are an atavism and all of humanity hitherto is an ape and laughing stock: this is the view handed to us by the insanity of modernism. This not futurism, this is not a preservation of humanity and a movement forward from a technical standpoint, it is the deliberate destruction of humanity and a sacrificing of it to technology. The very scientists who repudiate metaphysics and its systems are themselves ushering in a sort of paganism and blood offering that will encompass and ultimately consume the entire species. like Mayan priests they are sacrificing the children of man on the altar of their own arrogance to an uncertain future, a future so uncertain that we can only refer to it as singularity.

all of our machinations thus far have wrought error, chaos and suffering. yet we are so blinded by our desire to live that we negate the totality of our experience and pronounce this miserable ease as holy!

so arrogant are we that the elite among us, now as ever in our history, seek total domination on an unprecedented level. so completely and mindbogglingly arrogant are we that despite our poisoning of everything around us, we seek to move forward and tamper with even more fundamental aspects of our existence and our world; verily, we even seek to reshape mankind himself via our oh-so perfect understanding.

we do not even understand our origins and yet we seek to reshape our very selves! children starve and go uneducated, we murder each other and enslave each other and yet we want to give birth to artilects and to cyberize the human body! we want to push off from ourselves again and again as if somehow by running from ourselves we could overcome our failings, when all along we had the power to overcome those failings without technology.

it is as though the more we advance technologically the more we regress as a species to a sort of blind and uncaring animal, as brutal and stupid as any wild creature especially toward ourselves but also towards others. but it is a new brutality, a perfect and utterly human brutality and this aspect of our humanity, in my view, shall be the only thing which survives once we have wiped the slate clean.

we are more complex than we know, but we mistakenly assert things like “our genetic code is a complete representation of us” or “our dna is a digital code for human life” when, in fact, it is merely one piece of a much larger puzzle. Yet we are so confident, as we have always been confident, that we possessed the complete picture, that we boldly press forward at our own peril. This is how we ruined the earth and it is how we will ruin organic life itself.

Because we were arrogant enough to stand on our proofs as convictions, because we were bad scientists and fell into the trap of Belief!

racing toward self destruction, miserable, over-worked, while the earth sours and the skies darken, toiling ceaselessly at our own demise, neglecting our origin, neglecting the true promise of technology, neglecting each other. Unaware of what we are, never the less producing a new type, like every parent that came before us - inexorably reproducing ourselves out of existence.

when if we had only slowed down, if we had only stopped and stood still we could have gathered the missing data for our iterative set theory of value!

I find myself wanting to conquer the world, I want to crush the modern world, the religious and the technological! I want to hit the reset button on you humanity: BECAUSE YOU HAVEN’T LEARNED A FUCKING THING.

Once you get rid of the body there is no we anymore, there is no human anymore, there is only intellect as anti-nature. this is a will to self destruction codified as a technical solution to a nonexistent problem. our inability to excel at computation isn’t the problem, the problem is we don;t take care of the humans who are born nor see to their education.

rather than change this paradigm however we will go trans and post human because its easier, and you can buy a cyberbrain online by writing a check, you don’t have to get your hands dirty.

one can only hope that when the artilects do take over our civilization they will be more humane than we have been.

madness is the order of our day, as it was the order of our ancestors day, it is only a more complex form of madness it is no less insane.

what is the single unifying principle of this entire post humanist movement? is it the desire to explore space? no, for that is possible without it. Is it utopia? no, for that too is possible without it. is it the total transformation of the human being into another form? no, for that is essentially the destruction of the human form and a type of non-human or even anti-human existence.

the single codifying principle is FEAR, fear of death.

What?

Could it be that these people are nothing more than Cowards? But that is precisely my claim and they are not just cowards they are naive, and they are not just naive they are bad students of history, and they are not just bad students of history they are arrogant douche bags more interested in some selfish preoccupation than in the future of the species.

In fact if we had our eyes to see it, already we have gone too far, already monsters run the world. Already murder and mass murder have become to us acceptable and permissible, even a thousand years ago this was true, for not only these people are cowards, but all of us are cowards.

Shall I tell you the truth then?

They are afraid to die and we are afraid to live, we are afraid to die for life and they are afraid to live knowing that they must die. The great piece of idiocy in all of this is, of course, is that in becoming non-human they will actually have died. In what they consider a migration or elevation out and beyond humanity to a higher form is in reality a truncation and crippling of the form.

Don’t you see?

We were “born to chaos as the sparks flew upwards”, this fire into which we have been born is the very means by which we shall be tempered. What shall come of all this is not what any suspects, not those who stoked the fire, nor those who laid the kindling.

The global elite is destroying itself because it hates itself, the transhumanists are destroying themselves for they hate life and fear death, business is destroying the earth because it hates itself and wants to choke off its very preconditional framework.

And what is all of this? Mankind is pregnant with the future, but it is not a future that any of those who think they are in Control foresee. Control is an illusion, no one is more confused than the one who thinks he is in control. If you want to know what is being born simply invert everything which has occurred and is occurring, this will give you an inkling of what is being produced here.

A will to self deception has been the antecedent, the prerequisite for every major advancement, the greatest strategy of organic life here plays itself out in spectacular fashion: the cleverest way to deceive ones opponent is to embed a piece of self deception into the projection.

but what here is being opposed? ;)

What, in the last analysis makes us human? I have heard some people call it choice, but I must admit I have no belief in a so-called free will which chooses. To me control is an illusion and identity is a maze of infinite complexity.

i think the best architect is also the one who realizes control is an illusion and that the variable you didn’t account for is the one thing you can count on. live dangerously my friend.

So years of study has led me to one final conclusion about economic theory: it is all fucking make believe.

There is only production, the rest is a contrivance as fickle and as feeble as the dreams of youth. Yep, its all completely made up, the value of everything is completely subjective. The only thing that matters is production, the res tis capital it is either property or it is “that which has been produced and retains a subjective value”.

But whence come all those values?

From here on out every human being to me is sacred. It is my sworn duty to kill and to destroy every society which does not have a vested interest in every human being born. Any society that would throw away even one human being is an atavism and laughing stock to me.

Any economic theory which does not result in maximizing the potential of the human beings alive during a given interval is a contrivance more absurd than is organized religion and it seems very much like a religion to me.

It is as if, people had never Practiced science and only read about it being practiced.

Any practicing researcher knows one thing above all else about statistics and proofs: they are perspectives. Indeed the term proof is somewhat misleading, because what proof means is something other than what people think it means. Inconceivable! A proof is a step upon which to place one’s foot, empirical data is limited, every proof is merely a description of what is valid within a context and that context is always limited. What people forget is that it is contextual, that it doesn’t prove anything other than that which it states within a given context and that it is ultimately (and this is absolutely key) true until proved otherwise!

eal scientists approach statistical data critically and almost skeptically. Real scientists understand that the complexity of existence always maligns the very process of data generation! This is why it is imperative to design experiments with such meticulous precision, so as to rule out junk data skewing the results!

But look at how the masses clamor for all manner of data, poor, bedraggled and huddled together statistics, as if somehow the mere act of assembling information constituted a proof!

GMO as anti-nature

Journal

Biotech Enhancement and Natural Law

The fundamental problem which no one wants to address is borne out of arrogance, we think we understand the incredibly complex systems well enough to tamper with them and ultimately we will be unable to either predict or understand the consequences. And there will be consequences, unforeseen, detrimental consequences, which, once realized will be both unmanageable and irreversible. Much as we have already done with GMO crops and livestock, antibiotics and a host of other things ranging from tampering with the ecosystem to gaming human behavior via the behavioral sciences, we are creating problems we cannot solve and the culprit is scientific arrogance, which is to say the unscientific arrogance of some scientists. For this entire attitude flies in the face of scientific conscience and the very method that underwrites all practice in the discrete sciences themselves. We have replaced rigorous circumspection with the profit motive and we are and we will be paying the price for it, my great fear is that the terms of that price and its ultimate cost will be more than our species, such as it is can sustain. We are on a a downhill slope at the end of which the human species will be destroyed by design, we are quickly engineering ourselves out of existence and the only thing that can stop it is for a culture of opposition to flourish. This seems impossible amid a growing sentiment that not only are these practices acceptable, but, that they are safe and do not pose a threat to the future of our species.

But I have written a great deal on this subject and it should be clear to anyone conversant therewith that post-humanism and trans-humanism are really misnomers which rely on a misinterpretation of the term human. It would be more appropriate to think of cyberization and genetic alteration as non-human or even anti-human. This does not represent a variation and certainly not a transubstantiation or elevation to a higher type, what it represents is death and even a truncation or outright negation of the type and form.
