Greetings, I am File:NewMatthism3.2.png Omni and I welcome you to my page where I will be walking you through my thought processes, believes and ideas starting with three observations which my ideology is founded uppon.

File:Better-Civilization(1).png What Is Civilization ?

Despite what people like File:Better-JohannGottfriedHerder.png Herder, File:Better-Perennialism(2).png Guénon, or File:Better-JuliusEvola.png Evola will try to tell you, civilization is not some magical institution or state of existence that fell out of the sky or popped out of the ground. Civilization is a process. Civilization is an emergent "thing" that generates, gathers, evaluates, computes, and uses information on the basis of fulfilling desire. Due to its nature of ordering and using information, it naturally increases hierarchy in the sense of complexity of social systems and creates technology, making it inherently File:Better-Oligarchy(1).png socially hierarchical and File:Better-Transhumanism(1).png technologically progressive and can thus be seen as a force of negentropy on a ( File:Better-Xenology(1).png more o r less File:Better-PostHumanism(2).png ) anthropomorphic scale.

File:Better-Semantics(1).png The Role of Language

Obviously, language plays an important part in the process that is civilization, as it is the conduit through which information flows. It is absolutely necessary to formulate and utilize information, but also to maintain the structures that allow for the former actions to take place. What is less obvious, however, is that our modern human civilization does not run on English; it runs on money. From the File:Better-AustrianSchool(1).png Austrian perspective, money is a form of communication. Prices, interest rates, and all the other forms of financial data generated by the market tell every participant in said market crucial information about how desires relate to one another. It is this universal language that enables global commercium and human civilization independently from all other language barriers. Money serves as the lubricant that facilitates economic transactions and interactions, allowing individuals and societies to coordinate their activities efficiently and foster widespread prosperity and progress.

File:Better-DarkEnlightenment(1).png Measuring Civilization By Time Preference

It should be obvious that a File:Better-Tribalism(1).png hunter-gatherer tribe is less civilized than an File:Better-Agrarianism(1).png agricultural commune, which is itself less civilized than an File:Better-Mercantilism(1).png ancient Mediterranean or medieval trade city, which is again less civilized than a File:Better-Capitalism(1).png modern-day industrial-capitalist mega-city. It can be observed that the higher the degree of civilization, the lower the time preference, meaning that greater civilization equals higher ability to engage in long-term planning and investment. But low time preference is not the cause of high development, it is the result. When lots of information is gathered and computed in a reliable way, there is certainty. And if there is certainty, long-term thinking becomes less risky and more rewarding.
We can conclude that things like File:Better-Kritarchy(1).png the rule of law, File:Better-PoliceStatism(1).png public order, File:Better-Machiavellianism(1).png stability in political affairs, File:Better-AntiInflation(1).png absence of inflation, and File:Better-SocioCybernetics(1).png functional sociocybernetic systems are signs of high civilizational efficiency, as they increase information usability thus lowering time preference.

File:Better-AntiDemocarcy(1).png The Enemies Of Civilization

The enemies of civilization are essentially twofold. Ironically enough, the first type of enemy is the one that brags about "preserving the West" or "reinstating civilization" the most. It is the File:Better-OswaldMosley.png Mosleys and File:Better-PrussianSocialism(1).png Spenglers, who define a random point in time based on personal preference as the height of civilization and seek to devolve civilizational structures back. This means that civilizational structures are not capable of adapting to new given cybernetic inputs, therefore reducing the overall efficiency of the civilizational process.
The second type of enemy is not as concerned about civilization as the first; they are the File:Better-Democracy(1).png democrats, File:Better-Keynsianism(1).png keynesians, File:Better-Welfareism(1).png welfareists, and socialists whose policies reduce the continuity, scope, and efficiency of information processes, primarily by destroying the cybernetic systems that established themselves to process information and to continuously adapt the system to new inputs.

File:Better-Avaritionism(1).png The Chaotic Mode Of Organization

The most effective way of handling information is not a File:Better-Kafkacracy(1).png Byzantine system of bureaucracy. It clogs the system with unnecessary information, reducing the efficiency of civilizational cybernetics and lessening the degree of civilization. The most effective way of handling information is chaos. As civilization is emergent as the consequence of multipolarity of individual desires, the judgment regarding the relevance of data and the choices about handling data should be left to the very individuals that form the civilizational process. This seems to contrast the take that order, reducing time preference, makes the civilizational process more efficient. But the informational chaos creates the File:Better-Cybernetics(1).png sociocybernetic feedback-loops, as described by Austrians like File:Better-FriedrichHayek(1).png Hayek or accelerationists like File:Better-LandianAccelerationism(1).png Land, that are required for high degrees of civilization. Essentially, chaos creates order when given enough time. And this type of order is the most favorable one, as it does not stagnate due to its flexible nature.
