chip out truth as best as you possibly can. those that seek for it will find and recognize it. anything else is meaningless.

Less exposure. The right people will find their way here. We need to focus on being more serious and conducive to the right people.

Thanks j. ont. I have read a biography of Kant, and essays in college. I will find the Prolegomena. I was wondering about limits because I think if you understand limits you make better claims and arguments.

This is about as shallow a recommendation as can be given, but Kant’s first critique is a solid text on this subject (though some people find it overwhelming and obscure—to which I say, “read some Deleuze”). In many ways philosophy has barely moved past it—to the point where a lot of philosophers seem to have just ignored Kant, because he makes things less fun. If you have less time, try his Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics, which is a cursory of the first critique.

No doubt our host will have more to say on this subject…

That’s a question that needs discussion.

Don’t you think the level of exposure is right around where it should be?

*IF* we want more NRx exposure,then everyone should chip in and start trolling strategic left wing mongs. The only reason NRx got mentioned by Chu is because people were trolling him. The Xo bang link shows the proof of concept.

Glad I read that Roosh forum piece just for the insights on internet marketing. Lately I’ve come to the view that internet marketing is the master skill that arches above all others in the current economy (physical and intellectual). Anything a person might do, it’s gotta be sold. And that means web traffic. And that means figuring out how to generate it. And that’s by it’s very nature a slippery endeavor. I suppose you could spend $20 million and blanket every NFL stadium with your logo on Sundays, but only the entrenched oligarchic concerns have that kind of dough. For everybody else there’s guerrilla web marketing.

Even tech companies frequently don’t get this. A buddy of mine does marketing for tech firms and told me one outfit got $100m in VC financing, sold just $4m worth of stuff and only THEN decided they needed some marketing. Seems to me web marketing is mostly a young person’s game, but even the 40+ set has to at least recognize that this is where the action is …
