A Quick Note on Culture, Biology and Rebuilding European Civilization
And Probably Useful for Any Ethnicity, Race or Nation
This was in response to a reply to one of my comments at “Bill Rice’s Newsletter” here at Substack:

“Sez777, I appreciate your thoughtful, engaged reply regarding how I might suggest awakening those that can be awakened. There is part of the answer you seek right there in your mere engagement. More elaboration for a to-do list:
(1) 'Phronesis'. The ancient Greek concept that a properly-lived life involves the deliberate and skillful integration of theory and practice; thought and action. Ignoring or--whatever it means for one's particular state in life--unduly favoring one or the other leads to undesirable consequences for self and others. 'Theoria' and 'praxis' are not merely essential, but separate, parts of the whole. One cannot develop or be without the other---they are a unity. It is we who, with violence, separate them. Nonetheless, the restoration requires ceaseless choice and effort.
(2) Conversation. All education is conversation. The bridging of the gap between the solitary confinement of prisoners in separate skulls requires earnest and diligent attention to the art of conversation. There maybe inequalities between interlocutors, but teachers are those skilled in establishing parity, if not then launching the fellow conversant beyond one's own stores and capacities.
(3) The multiple-working hypothesis mode of mutual, dispassionate and circumspect exploration of ever-better defined concepts and matters; objects, events and contexts.
(4) Hard-knuckled collaboration over contest. There is a difference.
(5) Attention must be applied to the important polarities in a manner of "both," not "either-or:" the general and the specific; the near and far; the short-term and the long-term; the parts and the whole; the formal and the material; the personal-anecdotal and the universal; the means and the method; the relational and the mission; the categorical and the transitional; the centralized and the distributed; tasks and play; diligent accumulation of information and execution without perfect information; openness to periodic reassessment and resoluteness in decided course; intellect and muscle. These are just some examples.
(6) Vigilance, as in birds or herd animals is a shared, rotating focus with group behavior. Some individuals look, while other peck for food. Watch a flock of Robins in your yard this Spring. Vigilance and moderated skepticism are good. Suspiciousness and paranoia are maladaptive and disordered.
(7) Study biological analogies. Physics is good too, especially in the analysis of forces, energy and signal. Nevertheless, the oligarchic predators are masters of the biological analogy in developing their strategies.
(8) Intelligence is the defining feature of all biological life, especially human life. Intelligence is the taboo topic that must be understood and discussed if personal and political challenges are to be apprehended in their reality and addressed and conquered.
(9) Aggression does not mean violence. Aggression is merely the entrance into the
"out there" and (generally) the "not me." Use of aggression without violation is an art---The Art.
(10) People are different. Cultures are different. Ethnicities and races are different. Individuals and communities form dyadic pairs with their environment and culture. They and their environments and cultures are justifiably defensible unities. I call these unities 'neuroculture' to emphasize the connection of our sensory-motor system with culture. In detail, the complete loop is sensory-perceptual acquisition of information regarding objects, events and context --> cognitive understanding and judgement (theory) --> motor action on the self and the environment and alteration thereof (aggression, praxis) --> sensory acquisition of information (signal) and the potential for feedback correction --> and so on.
(11) All politics is about sex and reproduction. All peoples have an expected and honorable duty to protect their potential, as a group, to transmit an unmolested "postulation" of their genetic identity into the future.
(12) the greatest evil of the mRNA pseudovaccine is not even the threat that these devices pose to individual health (as serious a matter as that is), but rather the mRNA and imaginable alterations of our genetic codes are threats to the next generation---the freedom of your offspring (or the offspring of our cherished ethnicities and races) to find genetically unmolested mates in the future. Posterity is the critical matter and the oligarchs intend to molest that genetically and by selectively corrupting the culture, bureaucracies and institutional-organized life.
(13) Enjoy the beautiful in Nature and in human excellence. Since I am European, I am particularly proud of European art, architecture, music, science, technology, philosophy and theology. I would expect a non-European or tribesman anywhere to do the same. We can negotiate the interfaces.
(14) Boundaries and borders are important in organismal biology (cell membranes and epithelia). National borders are essential in human ecology, of which economics and politics are subsets. National borders are the necessary, complex and active means of the inter-cultural communication of ideas, information, techniques, and material products, visitors and rare migrants between separate milieus that, like the electrochemical gradient between interior and external cellular compartments, thrive on differences. Homogeneity across the boundary represents certain death. Mixing and dissolution is impossible without homogeneity.
(15) Rebuilding society and civilization will take extreme effort. Laxity and licentiousness are tendencies toward entropy, decline and death. Freedom is not license. Freedom and rule must work like muscle leveraging the skeleton.
(16) Rebuilding and civilizing anew, viz., creating "second societies" in the transition, will require enterprise in all aspects of human life. Enterprise happens when creative and intelligent persons associate and collaborate in relationships of trust.
(17) Tokenized trust and promises are called "money." We need to restructure parallel, then replacing, current banking systems---with an aim toward paper, metal and material items of exchange that are not trackable, programmable, cancellable nor manipulable. These inconveniences of money and private communication channels protect the "inconvenience" of persons to the oligarchs [I accidently typed 'incoinvenience---haha].
[18] Artfully invite, with knowledge of your system of surroundings) others in progressive stages to join you and others in ever re-assessing signal and messages from the "out there." Not all can be engaged: some have not the intelligence or compensating humility to understand friendly communication. Encourage pattern detection. Be gentle and be firm where necessary.
(19) Unless condescended to, some people will judge themselves condescended to. Not condescending to them will be interpreted as condescending.
(20) Develop your skills for detecting both predators, parasites, enemies and friendemies---this is a lifelong project for everyone.
