Elon Musk’s algos dished up some Bannon and Ivanka thoughts [below[ … i obliged and plopped a stopgap plug and damlet base into their publically personal gaping gullies of badly eroded outlook, intent, consciousness and insight memeplex in plain sight. It had such a long way to go to the bottom that momentum gained along the way caused a tremor with repercussions …. after 8k tweets i have log in probs analogous to border crossing satanic gaimz their dear frenz make the people they imposed themselves on, the Palestinians, put up and practice saintliness with.

Here’s the record:

Curtis yarvin flushed with pride from an
0:42
election win alas probably still just
0:45
another cheap hit of publicity crack
0:47
huge in the moment and historically
0:48
ephemeral but who knows a the two halves
0:51
of the so-called new right rationalists
0:53
and traditionalists have started our new
0:55
era off in fine American Style by
0:57
squabbling in public over Indian visas
1:00
cool for me this spat just illustrates
1:03
the inadequacy of the standard liberal
1:04
framework of political science that
1:06
history has condemned both sides to live
1:08
in liberalism as we know it is only
1:10
about 250 years old a shorter lifespan
1:13
than some Chinese dynasties and only for
1:15
about the last 50 years has it so
1:17
completely excluded premodern thinking
1:19
the shared Heritage of the European and
1:21
antique worlds combined that even most
1:23
of us conservative intellectuals have
1:24
forgotten how to think about political
1:26
science rigorously within a priber
1:28
framework we can still think intuitively
1:31
like peasants about the meaning of the
1:32
nation state there is much to be said
1:34
for course peasant wisdom but when we
1:37
think analytically like lawyers or
1:39
professors we have no choice but to
1:40
think as liberals conservative politics
1:43
comes from Lock and at best Cicero
1:46
conservative economics is from Smith and
1:48
at best Mees great thinkers but in a
1:51
narrow tradition in this essay we'll
1:54
develop an analytical post- liberal
1:55
framework that will let us think as
1:57
concretely in a liberal framework as
1:59
liberals do in their liberal framework
2:01
about questions like open borders and
2:02
free trade the migration question very
2:06
smart conservatives of today when they
2:08
think about immigration in specific have
2:10
no choice but to surrender to either of
2:12
these modes if you are against the free
2:14
movement of Labor the only mode in which
2:16
you can express yourself as intuitive or
2:18
even downright romantic the more you do
2:20
this the more you sound like musolini
2:23
this doesn't mean you're wrong but it
2:25
doesn't bode well either however when
2:27
you surrender to your analytical side
2:29
you can feel yourself turning into the
2:30
world's worst kind of spurk you know you
2:33
are wrong but all the known formulas say
2:35
you're right what do in the end the
2:38
choice always comes down to what kind of
2:40
person you are while Trump is a purely
2:42
intuitive person a genuine intuitive
2:44
genius musk is something even more rare
2:47
an intuitive genius and an analytical
2:49
genius the trouble is that sometimes
2:51
both these Geniuses Collide and the
2:53
latter always takes precedence this
2:55
would be fine if he was using the right
2:57
analytical formula unfortunately musk's
3:00
libertarian framework is the political
3:02
science equivalent of Newtonian
3:03
mechanics an oversimplification which
3:05
works only in special cases and even
3:08
more unfortunately our own time and
3:10
place does not seem to be within one of
3:12
these Newtonian envelopes intuition can
3:14
compensate only so much for bad analysis
3:17
within musk's framework skilled
3:19
immigration or whatever euphemism stands
3:21
behind this term feels like an easy win
3:24
math always beats intuition but what if
3:26
the formula is missing a term
3:28
analytically it feels like the effect of
3:30
skilled immigration abstractly on
3:33
productivity is not measurable but is
3:34
quantifiable whereas the negative impact
3:37
if any on society is neither measurable
3:39
nor quantifiable it's hard to pick
3:41
unquantifiable over quantifiable what is
3:44
society anyway what process of
3:47
scientific government could support this
3:49
once you get used to choosing anything
3:50
intangible over efficiency efficiency
3:53
goes out the window Sovereign accounting
3:55
and labor migration the traditionalists
3:58
understand an extremely important
3:59
analytical principle but they have no
4:01
analytical model for this principle so
4:03
they can only express it intuitively in
4:06
fact the negative impact of free
4:08
movement in labor while hard to measure
4:10
is easy to quantify the same is true of
4:12
its close relative free movement in
4:14
Goods but elon's classical accounting
4:17
formula is missing the term that would
4:18
quantify these impacts let's try to
4:21
correct it by adding back the relativity
4:22
term it is correct to define the
4:24
government as a company the nation is a
4:27
sovereign firm or if we prefer the firm
4:30
is a sort of second order virtual nation
4:32
state the two concepts are clearly
4:34
different in a clear way yet clearly
4:36
related in a clear way can we generalize
4:38
across them of course but we have to do
4:41
it right it is tempting to conclude that
4:43
the economic purpose of a firm is to
4:45
create valuable goods and services
4:47
whereas the economic purpose of a
4:48
government is to maximize GDP the total
4:51
sum of goods and services created by the
4:53
nation this is what I call Newtonian
4:55
accounting it is actually wrong for both
4:57
firms and governments this accounting is
5:00
wrong for firms because maximizing
5:02
productive output is not the goal of a
5:03
firm maximizing the value of its capital
5:06
is the goal of a firm while these goals
5:08
are directionally similar and often
5:10
align they can easily diverge capital is
5:13
traditionally measured by an efficient
5:15
Equity Market the goal of a CEO is to
5:17
make the investors happy by making the
5:19
stock go up the Market's estimate of the
5:21
company's capitalization corresponds to
5:23
its estimate of its future profit until
5:25
Infinity discounted by the interest rate
5:28
because Double Entry accounting this
5:29
must equal the total value of its
5:31
tangible assets factories Etc and
5:34
intangible assets brand value Etc while
5:38
profit generally corresponds to revenue
5:40
they are not the same thing you can sell
5:42
a lot of dollars for 99 moreover
5:45
estimating the value of capital involves
5:47
a little thing called depreciation
5:49
factories houses and other forms of
5:52
capital wear out when you use them some
5:54
forms of capital can even experience
5:56
appreciation they get more valuable land
5:58
can appreciate all this has to go in the
6:01
quarterly report if you ignore the
6:03
appreciation and depreciation of your
6:05
Capital you are driving a rented car no
6:07
one ever changed the oil in a rented car
6:10
maximizing GDP as a national accounting
6:13
policy means we are maximizing the total
6:15
utility delivered by the productive
6:17
sector to the consumptive sector all
6:19
systems of modern Economic Policy from
6:21
socialism to capitalism are agreed on
6:24
this goal socialists want to use the
6:26
visible hand to shift production from
6:28
luxuries for the rich to Necessities for
6:30
the poor this means they measure utility
6:32
in a different way a way not captured by
6:34
summing up dollars a th000 bushels of
6:37
wheat sent to Ghana produces more user
6:38
utility than one PCH Philipe sent to
6:41
London okay sure in case you didn't know
6:44
Africa Imports 85% of its food
6:47
capitalists point out that the Damage
6:48
Done by the visible hand often exceeds
6:50
its utility even by the Socialist
6:52
definition okay sure but notice what
6:55
they both agree on maximizing utility
6:59
isn't the goal of the productive sector
7:00
to produce utility what else could we
7:02
optimize for what other kind of formula
7:05
could we optimize for well we could
7:08
optimize for the same goal as a private
7:09
firm maximizing the value of our Capital
7:12
this would involve thinking about
7:14
appreciation SL depreciation of capital
7:17
but what exactly are the capital assets
7:19
of the state human capital and The
7:21
Sovereign firm here is where Elon Musk
7:24
and I disagree almost everyone today
7:26
agrees with Elon even the
7:28
traditionalists almost all of them agree
7:31
with Elon which is why they have so much
7:33
trouble expressing their point
7:34
analytically intuitively they get it
7:36
perfectly essentially everyone today is
7:39
a liberal Libertarians are liberals
7:41
conservatives are liberals and Liberals
7:43
are liberals they are all using the
7:45
wrong analytical framework historically
7:49
however almost everyone agrees with me
7:51
the Newtonian or liberal view is in fact
7:53
an English view from the 17th century
7:56
unfortunately just because it took over
7:58
the world doesn't make it true
8:00
the liberal modern view is that the
8:02
state exists to serve its citizens the
8:04
state in its supervision of Commerce
8:06
aims to maximize the utility produced by
8:08
the economy the purpose of government is
8:11
to protect a free people in their
8:12
Pursuit of Happiness the IL liberal
8:15
premodern view is that the state owns
8:16
its subjects there are no citizens there
8:19
are only subjects to put it as
8:21
pejoratively as we possibly can State
8:23
slaves the purpose of government is to
8:25
render these slaves as productive as
8:27
possible which because Double Entry
8:29
counting means making them as valuable
8:31
as possible to a modern liberal
8:34
libertarian or conservative this is the
8:36
most offensive possible Declaration of
8:38
authoritarianism or even totalitarianism
8:41
to Plato it is Tuesday musk assumes he
8:44
understands political science better
8:45
than Plato just because he understands
8:47
physics better than Plato actually Plato
8:50
is right the nation is the people the
8:53
state is the owner of the nation the
8:55
land structures and people which are its
8:57
Sovereign property ownership means
9:00
exclusive Dominion this is the
9:02
relationship between the state and the
9:03
subject some arms of the state may
9:06
sometimes protect the subject from other
9:07
arms of the state but every state
9:10
considered as a whole can do whatever it
9:12
wants to any of its subjects and in as
9:14
much as it cannot it is not a state at
9:16
all since a state is an organization
9:18
which owns territory and people the only
9:20
difference between a state and a
9:22
plantation is a size and B Independence
9:26
on a plantation within a state the
9:28
relationship between mass and slave can
9:30
at least be checked by the state between
9:32
sovereign state and individual the
9:34
individual has no defense at all this is
9:36
the very definition of sovereignty
9:39
anyone who does not believe in Sovereign
9:40
property is fundamentally an anarchist
9:43
that he still believes in personal and
9:44
corporate private property is only a
9:46
slight mitigation of his destructive and
9:48
incorrigible leftism which do to States
9:50
what socialism does to companies
9:52
fortunately this anarchism does not
9:54
prevent the sovereign state from
9:55
existing only from analyzing itself
9:57
clearly and rigorously if the subjects
10:00
of a government are treated as assets on
10:02
its National balance sheet as human
10:04
capital that means it owns them that
10:06
means it has to safeguard them it has to
10:08
protect and nurture them and it is
10:10
responsible for their appreciation or
10:12
depreciation here is a way to quantify
10:14
the traditional responsibility of the
10:16
state for the common good which
10:17
conservatives but not Libertarians
10:19
believe in a government that does not
10:22
think of itself as owning its subjects
10:24
perhaps some kind of temporary military
10:26
occupation can afford to disregard this
10:28
term in the formula this is why
10:30
temporary military occupation can be
10:32
quite careless of the common good the
10:34
general in charge is essentially driving
10:36
a rented car to traditionalists it seems
10:39
that musk and his fellow open borders
10:40
billionaires want to drive America like
10:42
a rented car but they need an analytical
10:44
framework that can express this
10:46
intuitive truth what is Quantified does
10:48
not need to be measured the USG is not
10:51
necessarily selling its valuable
10:52
citizens slaves overseas like a European
10:55
soccer team it is enough to think about
10:57
the value of a human being in an AB ract
10:59
sense but the classical State trades in
11:02
an exogenous currency one it cannot
11:04
create and its balance of trade is the
11:06
exact analog of the private company's
11:08
profit and loss when we see a trade
11:10
surplus we see a profitable company when
11:12
we see a trade deficit we see a money
11:14
burning company the trade surplus is a
11:17
measure of the productivity of the state
11:19
subjects again compare China to America
11:22
here and we know what makes human beings
11:24
more valuable in almost every sense work
11:27
ideally complex challenges work that
11:29
tests the limits of some craft skill or
11:32
trade we sense that a valuable human
11:34
being professionally or otherwise is one
11:36
who has done the most to develop a
11:38
lifelong profession at the edge of their
11:39
human capacity China has developed not
11:42
just by building factories but by
11:44
building people who know how to boiled
11:45
and work in factories work and meaning
11:47
and profit cannot be separated humans
11:50
like robots can be productive but as
11:53
capital they obey very different rules
11:56
for a machine production implies
11:58
depreciation for a human production
12:00
implies appreciation there are
12:02
exceptions Health damaging trades but
12:05
they are exceptions we know what does
12:07
not make human beings more valuable in
12:09
almost every sense consumption at least
12:12
consumption once it gets past the level
12:14
of basic necessity the GDP mindset makes
12:17
almost zero sense from the standpoint of
12:19
nation as firm in fact the more luxuries
12:22
you produce for your citizens the softer
12:24
weaker and less productive they get and
12:27
they do not just suffer economically but
12:29
but Also spiritually the spiritual
12:31
benefits of challenging and especially
12:33
meaningful work are well known hunter
12:36
gatherers rarely feel like they are
12:38
working everything is Meaningful and
12:40
everything is challenging is hunting
12:42
work is fishing work people sell real
12:45
estate so they can hunt and fish who
12:47
would hunt and fish so they could sell
12:48
real estate when we look at a the common
12:52
good B appreciation SL depreciation of
12:55
human capital and C Net production of
12:57
utility we are struck immediately by the
13:00
fact that A and B are clearly aligned
13:03
whereas C the Criterion that all modern
13:06
thinkers agree on the GDP metric beloved
13:08
by Libertarians and socialists alike is
13:11
the misaligned metric analytically
13:13
America is being driven like a rented
13:15
car if not a rented mule and when we
13:18
cast our intuitive eyes across the state
13:20
of the nation we see that it is being
13:22
driven like a rented car if not a rented
13:24
mule suddenly now our formulas do not
13:28
deceive us the old formula was wrong and
13:30
the new formula which is even older was
13:33
right China has been managed on the new
13:35
formula for 40 years whose economy is
13:38
better China for the most part Imports
13:41
neither people nor Goods they seem to be
13:43
dot doing fine without any Tamil brahin
13:45
at all just saying let's quantify the
13:48
poisonous effect of importing goods and
13:50
our labor into an economy in the new
13:52
formula this toxic impact is as clear as
13:54
day if the labor demand elastic in the
13:58
economy does not apply quality work to
14:00
the labor Supply in elastic we will see
14:02
clear depreciation in the human capital
14:05
we may not be able to measure this
14:06
effect EG by selling random subjects on
14:09
some imaginary Global slave market but
14:11
we can Define it in quantitative terms
14:14
if there are not enough good jobs for
14:15
all the Americans some of the Americans
14:17
will become useless bums or they will
14:20
have to take shitty jobs which
14:22
will cause them to fall short of their
14:23
human potential it will leave them less
14:25
valuable as human beings as human
14:27
capital as Government slaves see how
14:30
easy this new math is if it seems
14:33
paradoxical that accepting the principle
14:34
that government slavery is the key to
14:36
human freedom and flourishing it seems
14:38
no less paradoxical that socialism is
14:40
the way to ruin and impoverish a society
14:42
but it always seems to work out that way
14:45
everything rots when it has no owner
14:47
human beings included once we realize
14:49
that JN a 21st century economy the goal
14:52
of matching labor demand to labor Supply
14:54
is much more significant than the goal
14:56
of maximizing the supply of Comforts and
14:58
Pleasures to the the population either
15:00
because according to my super spry
15:02
analysis we are all government slaves or
15:04
because in terms Hillary Clinton would
15:06
be quite happy with purpose skill and
15:09
meaning are more important to human
15:10
existence than pixel count on your flat
15:12
screen TV we get to turn liberal
15:14
economics upside down and make it make
15:16
sense again for instance if we have a
15:18
lot of professional programmers who
15:20
can't find jobs as such but have to be
15:22
Walmart greeters we are racking up fat
15:24
losses on these human assets from a
15:26
depreciation standpoint it would be
15:28
economic ideal to give them fake jobs
15:31
but ideally they would not even know the
15:33
jobs were fake instead we are pumping
15:35
all the appreciation energy into these
15:37
h-1bs who are human assets of another
15:39
government while our own human capital
15:41
rots on the couch the difference between
15:44
migrant labor and free trade is clearly
15:46
a difference of degree in both case we
15:48
are using foreign labor to fulfill
15:50
domestic labor demand therefore the
15:53
appreciation is being foregone and human
15:55
assets depreciate if they are not used
15:57
they appreciate when used to the limit
15:59
of potential again we are driving
16:01
America like a rented car it is
16:04
efficient to change the oil in a car you
16:05
own but not when you rent we own this
16:08
car I'm afraid we should act like it
16:11
population acquisition of course there
16:14
is an easy answer to this question keep
16:16
the h-1bs then the state is appreciating
16:19
its own assets isn't it actually it is
16:22
capturing assets from other states
16:24
sounds even better highly accretive to
16:26
the balance sheet first of all the H1B
16:29
is not an immigrant Visa it is a guest
16:32
worker visa limited to 6 years to the
16:35
extent that it has become a path to
16:36
permanent migration it is simply being
16:38
misused the same is true of the famous
16:40
01 genius Visa there is actually no
16:43
official USG program for repati justly
16:45
harvesting Global human capital if we
16:48
were to design such a program it would
16:50
look very different from the H1B or even
16:52
the o1 in theory there is certainly an
16:55
economic place for guest worker programs
16:57
labor shortages can render various kinds
16:59
of activity on economic even military
17:02
activity if you need a rocket program to
17:04
fight the Soviet Union and the best
17:06
Rockets are made in Nazi Germany why not
17:08
import Nazi rocket scientists to put a
17:10
man on the moon don't worry you don't
17:12
have to let them put a Nazi on the moon
17:15
and it is hard to blame Saudi Arabia for
17:17
importing TCH and petroleum Engineers
17:19
What If instead of importing h-1bs we
17:22
imported AAR we could even give it a
17:24
name which doesn't sound like you just
17:26
ran over a frog and it's like with recip
17:28
piece you can just import the code not
17:31
the coders but all these are genuinely
17:33
special cases when we look at the
17:36
economic conditions under which such
17:37
programs were once established we might
17:39
find them reasonable however they are
17:42
exceptional cases in the modern world in
17:44
these exceptional cases we see that
17:46
domestic labor Supply is being stretched
17:48
to its edges preventing some whole new
17:50
universe from blossoming this is not at
17:52
all the normal situation actually what
17:55
we are doing with all this Mass
17:56
migration in both the high skill and low
17:59
skill areas is a cope for our inability
18:01
to develop our own human capital it is
18:03
especially noticeable that in low skill
18:05
employment we have both a native
18:07
underclass that does not work and an
18:08
imported hel class that does work while
18:11
the high skill situation is more
18:13
complicated we cannot pretend that the
18:15
government is following a rational
18:16
policy in this one area when the nature
18:18
and motivation of the policy has nothing
18:20
to do with this analysis the USG is not
18:23
focused on developing its human capital
18:25
to the extent that it is acquiring
18:27
capital in this way it is not not
18:28
because it understands what it means to
18:30
be a country but for the opposite reason
18:32
as a cope for not understanding human
18:34
capital economics it wrecks its own
18:36
Capital as it scourers the world for
18:38
Replacements this is host moreover why
18:42
would another country Let its most
18:43
valuable human capital emigrate
18:45
especially a third world country which
18:47
needs its Tamil brahin far more I feel
18:50
than we do this question goes to the
18:52
very nature of the post
18:54
1,945 World Order which has always had a
18:57
bizarre science fictional Wendel wil
18:58
tell us of world government is there any
19:00
life left in that dream what if we shut
19:03
down the UN and no one noticed like what
19:06
are we even doing here then of course we
19:09
have the well-documented damage that
19:11
diversity causes to the social Fabric in
19:13
both neighborhoods and workplaces this
19:15
is settled science so there is no reason
19:18
to talk about it it only encourages the
19:20
deniers in this house Etc but we have to
19:23
agree with the H1B Defenders that the
19:25
impact here is not that great let's talk
19:27
frankly about R for a moment in this
19:30
house we believe in science race science
19:33
within my lived experience middleclass
19:35
immigration from India seems reminiscent
19:37
of Irish and Italian immigration in the
19:39
early 20th century while the Irish and
19:41
Italians were quite UNC their children
19:44
were only mildly course today their
19:46
descendants if they live in a few small
19:48
cultural enclaves such as South Boston
19:50
or the Jersey Shore remain figures of
19:52
fun but the normal historical course
19:54
aided of course by a 50-year migration
19:56
moratorium so profoundly racist that it
19:58
distinguished between northern and
19:59
southern Europeans is for Irish Italians
20:02
and Indians to assimilate more or less
20:04
perfectly across Generations Modo low
20:06
and non-trivial decline in the National
20:08
character which is sad but probably
20:11
would have happened anyway certainly the
20:13
character of wasps Jews Etc also
20:16
declined across the 20th century and
20:18
while India may be in some ways the
20:20
worst country in the world we can't say
20:22
they're not sending their best all the
20:24
evidence is that they are sending their
20:25
best unlike some other regions you I or
20:28
Trump name and the best Indians can be
20:30
excellent surely there is a racial
20:32
reason why there are more Indian than
20:34
Chinese CEOs so all in all a mixed bag
20:38
in the Indian case it is less the action
20:40
that is wrong than the principle behind
20:42
the action because finally across the
20:45
board we sense that all the talk of the
20:47
objective advantages of mass migration
20:49
is just what my father with his
20:50
Soprano's accent used to call pissing
20:52
down my neck and telling me it's
20:54
rainning none of this policy is
20:56
motivated by any kind of noble aim not
20:58
human Arian empathy and not technocratic
21:00
governance I believe that many
21:02
intellectuals genuinely believe in these
21:04
policies for these reasons not everybody
21:06
is a shill and some Live players are
21:08
even intellectuals I do not think Elon
21:11
Musk is motivated by the opportunity to
21:13
hire a few 85,000 dealer technicians but
21:17
the intellectuals are always the
21:18
exceptions and they are never the actual
21:20
cause Mass migration as a policy is
21:24
motivated by one of two things corporate
21:26
externalities or political ambition at
21:28
its most respectable it is a way for
21:30
businesses to save money by using
21:32
cheaper foreign labor at its least
21:34
respectable it is a design to gain power
21:36
for a small meritocratic oligarchy over
21:38
the whole of society by disrupting the
21:40
filia and oia of that Society while
21:42
diluting its vote the businesses should
21:45
realize that they can still win by being
21:47
the best so long as their competitors
21:49
also must use domestic labor the
21:51
oligarchy should be deported to Mars
21:53
someone told me elon's real plan is
21:55
actually to keep Earth but send the libs
21:57
to Mars alien immigration the real
22:00
systemic shock will be of course ai ai
22:04
is essentially equivalent to alien
22:06
immigration the aliens are a little
22:08
clumsy with their JavaScript at the
22:10
moment their driving isn't quite perfect
22:12
either in five or at most 10 years what
22:15
will our nepales Uber drivers here on
22:17
God knows what visa do it was long the
22:20
joke in Palo Alto that AI stood for
22:22
actually Indians but now silicon is
22:24
beating out carbon for rals Look Out
22:27
Below the effect of AI will be the same
22:30
effect that technology has all across
22:31
the productive sector it creates
22:33
tournament economy effects in which a
22:35
few rock stars rake in all the Bucks it
22:37
is a worse destroyer of Labor demand
22:39
than the spinning jenny and the steam
22:41
engine put together it will destroy
22:43
demand for human beings in the developed
22:44
world the developing world and probably
22:47
even on Mars human populations to
22:50
governments are left as residual
22:52
liabilities that need to be fed and in
22:54
some sense pleasured almost everyone is
22:57
a zero marginal prodct
22:59
employee at this point to protect any
23:01
kind of Humane existence it is necessary
23:03
to restrict the technology of production
23:05
in a way that maximizes highquality
23:07
labor demand we are essentially turning
23:09
real life into a video game a maximally
23:12
engaging video game we may even have
23:14
professional Dragon Fighters once we can
23:16
bioengineer real dragons the only
23:19
alternative I can see to such a policy
23:21
of artificial difficulty is one of fully
23:23
automatic luxury communism in which the
23:25
total absence of meaning makes Humanity
23:27
suffer a moral and then political
23:28
collapse this political collapse seems
23:30
likely to result in civilizational
23:32
suicide subjugation by barbarians and a
23:35
return to pre- pre-industrial technology
23:37
levels having lost all the secrets of
23:39
pre-industrial Technology as well the
23:41
species may survive unless there is some
23:44
kind of technical self-extinction scheme
23:46
which seems likely covid after all was
23:49
almost a dry run
