On Property Rights, Contract, Degeneracy and Physical Removal
What is property? Why must all societies inevitably address themselves to the question of how to deal with property? What is the optimal way in which to allocate titles to property? Here, I clear the air about my position on the question. If this doesn't persuade you, at least it will tell you where I stand. I explain why all societies need some scheme of property rights to function; why the libertarian scheme of self-ownership, conferral of rights to unowned property to those who are the first to physically transform some scarce resource in an intersubjectively ascertainable way, and rights of contractual transfer of property to all owners is the optimal system from the point of view of maintaining social order and economic productivity; and why all deviations from that system are bound to produce, to one degree or another, a tendency to short-termism, imprudence and socio-cultural degeneracy. I also deal with some practical problems regarding "collective" ownership of property.

Sorry for the repeated re-uploads of this. I made stupid editing mistakes when putting this video together. I've fixed them and I think that it's finally alright now, though.
The God Emperor Donald Trump has bathed us all in the tears of hysterical leftists... and DAMN, does it feel good! Going completely against (most) expectations, he has won the presidential election and become the President-elect of the United Sates. While this is certainly a victory against the left, and it's incredible fun to see leftists cowed, we shouldn't get cocky. The truth is, the Cathedral is still standing strong, and it will mobilize in full against him. What the right has won is only one battle in a much, much larger war. Furthermore, Donald Trump almost certainly does not fully realize his own significance or the significance of what he represents, and he almost certainly will not enact the sort of reforms that would be necessary to fully dismantle the Cathedral because he does not even understand what the Cathedral is or why it presents a problem to the long-term survival of civilization. However, what we can say is that his victory has made it so that the Overton Window is well-placed to begin shifting to the right in the very near future. Being mindful not to exaggerate the scope of this victory, then, let's gloat, let's celebrate and let's drink some of those delicious, salty, leftist tears.
One last thing to say is that for all of the (accurate) talk about how Donald Trump appealed to the long-ignored racial and economic anxieties of working-class whites, I don't think that he could have possibly won the presidency without 4chan memeing for him. That is the power of Pepe. Meme magic is real, and it is essential if we are going to take down the Cathedral.
PRAISE KEK!!!

In this video, I'm going to expand on some thoughts that I had left in a comment on one of Adam Wallace's videos. The title pretty much says it all.

Why does America support Israel? Why is there such a large, passionate, dedicated political contingent of Evangelical Christians in America that are so pro-Israel? The answer lies in the long tradition, going back to the Protestant Reformation, of Judeo-centric prophecy interpretation which viewed Jews as essential to the events thought by many English Protestants to occur around the time of the apocalypse. This is an extremely complex topic and it requires more than one video to completely explain and convey. This is part one. It explains the emergence of this tradition and moves on to its evolution in England. It ends right around the time of the English settlement of the United States, and so explains the intellectual and religious tradition that the first settlers of New England bring to them and how that goes on to shape what it means to be American. Part two will begin with the United States.

Being a liberal means that you can't believe in anything strongly enough to actually take it seriously. Modern liberalism's declaration that things like religion, metaphysics or other "comprehensive doctrines" cannot be brought to bear on matters of public concern is bound to produce hollow, unedifying public discourse in which everyone produces bad arguments for their views - assuming that they bother to present any arguments at all. We therefore have liberalism and its Rawslian restrictions on public debate to thank for how nihilistic and empty much political and ethical thought has become. Liberalism is nihilistic. It attempts to replace the comprehensive worldview presented by a religion like Christianity with a void called "reason" and acts surprised when the result is a decline in the quality of thinking and theorizing. This was all made possible by modernity's moving away from the old metaphysics of nature that saw the natural world as tinged with purpose. The modern conception of nature is one of objects simply being acted on by natural forces, with no final causality. This shift has made moral theorizing unavoidably sterile - unless, that is, we do lots of what law professor Steven Smith calls "smuggling."

Damn, there was a lot of 6 18 1 21 4 this year related to balloting and the choosing of political officeholders! That obscene amount of rhymes-with-1940s-era-slang-word-for-woman was undeniably dispositive in a number of key areas.

Remember, remember, the fifth of November... But as what? As a day when crazed Catholic fanatics almost killed the king of England, many of its important lords and almost blew the symbol of the English state to smithereens, or as a day when Machiavellian political operators led a group of lambs to slaughter for the sake of preserving their own power? Remember, remember, that the most dangerous terrorist is often the state itself.

Woke Capitalism is a fad, and like all fads, it will pass. Those worried about tech censorship shouldn't worry. New companies that won't -- or won't be able to -- carry on these practices are already emerging at this very moment. Prominent commentators on the right may be worried about tech censorship because it costs them shekels, but things will not reach the point of information being permanently squelched. Relax. It's really not that bad.

So... now left-wing agitators have made inroads into the college that I went to. It's disappointing to see something like this hit so close to home (though I can't say that I'm entirely surprised) and it only underscores the need for anyone who dissents from the politically correct/SJW?left-wing narrative promulgated on campus to "secede" from the university system and make their own independent intellectual content. It's only when we make these people irrelevant that we can stop them. Many people are doing that already and the enormous profusion of anti-SJW videos online is encouraging. May the trend continue and pick up steam.
