Praxeology

And, yeah.

Okay, Praxeology.tv. What's going on there? Oh, that loops you back.

So, yeah, I think that's kind of cool.

I mean, it looks like it's been abandoned, but, yeah, she was pretty good at explaining that kind of stuff.

So you wrote Bitcoin Sovereignty Through Mathematics in 2019, Bitcoin Independence Reimagined in 2020, Bitcoin Everything Divided by 21 Million in 2022, a meme that is near and dear to many Bitcoiners' hearts.

In 2023, you wrote Praxeology, The Invisible Hand That Feeds You.

And then 2024, Bitcoin, The Inversive Clown World.

So let's take them one by one.

I read Human Action by Mises at least twice.

And I read all of the Rothbard books and all of the Hoppe books.

And... decided to try to write a TLDR, so to speak, or a beginner's Austrian economics for dummies book, which became Praxeology, the invisible hand that feeds you.

And I've since revised that book and made it more into a textbook.

This charge can only be sustained by failing to carefully examine his 100-page bibliography.

He wrote for the International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences in 1968 and his articles Lang, Mises, and Praxeology.

freedom, inequality, primitivism, and the division of labor.

And Ludwig von Mises, Paradigm for Our Age, appeared in 1971 and in 1972.

Yeah.

Praxeology is a distinctive methodology of the Austrians, of the Austrian school.

The term was first applied by the Austrian me- uh, to the Austrian method by Ludwig von Mises, who was not only the major architect and elaborator of this methodology, but also the economist who most fully and successfully applied it under the construction of economic theory.

He's still writing, "Praxeology rests on the fundamental axiom that individual acts, uh, individual humans act.

That is, on the primordial fact that individuals engage in a conscious action towards chosen goals.

This concept of action contrasts with the purely reflexive or knee-jerk behavior, which is not directed towards goals.

Let us note that praxeology does not assume that a person's choice of values or goals is wise or proper or that he has chosen the technically correct method of reaching them.

All that praxeology asserts is that an individual actor adopts goals and beliefs, whether erroneously or correct, that he can arrive at them by the employment of certain means.

It's basically they've, they've compiled every old blog article, every forum post, like from all the fucking greats in the space, including guys you've never heard of.

And it's just this wealth of information that is the base of the Red Pill Praxeology, right? Um, in fact, you know, Brother Uncle Bob, Uncle Bob, he's one of my original 3% brothers.

Uncle Bob, he's in the Wolf Pack.

He, he's on Substack also.

He's just wrote this really great article talking about how because of the popularity of some of these big podcasts, like whatever, and Fresh and Fit and stuff like that, Red Pill awareness has, has never been more prevalent, but the understanding of the underlying concepts of the Praxeology have, uh, like no one even, no one really knows what they are.[laughs] But like very few people like understand the actual praxeology, right? And so, uh, but that's where...

You can get all that stuff from the Red Pill archive for free.

Well, there's one, the, the, this guy Jack 10 of Hearts said, and I'm not gonna read the whole thing, but he said this, 'cause it's, it gets right to the point.
