Family & Community
The family is the most important social unit in society. A well-functioning family is a tremendous asset to society, while a dysfunctional one can quickly turn into a multi-generational liability. Communities ads another social layer on top of that, which are very intriguing by their fluidity vis-a-vis the other formal institutions on the macro-level.
Guiding Principles:
Gender
- Humans are binary: male/masculine (XY) or female/feminime (XX)
- Many variables determine where you are on the masculinity-femininity spectrum, e.g. some males are more muscular etc.
- LGBT+ is about sexual attraction (i.e. not gender), since only a subset of genes code for neurons related to sexual attraction
- A male gay has neuronal networks (coding for sexuality) that are very similar to those found in female non-gay brains
Creating Children
- Encourage women to have children in teens and early twenties
- Sexual education should focus on reproduction
- Fertility drastically decrease as women age
- Offer economic incentives and housing
- Discourage unfit parents from having children
- Consider reproduction a sacred trust
- Guide reproduction wisely
- Men should have the right to veto pregnancy
Kindergarten
- Keep collectivized child rearing to a minimum
- Employees should preferably have professional training
- Exhaustive testing of prospective employees
- Aim for 50/50 gender balance among employees
School (4XX yo)
- See the section called “Education and Employment”
Raising Children
- Maximize amount of time children interact with parents
- Do not excessively rely on collective systems for rearing kids
- E.g. kindergarten, school, etc.
- Leverage technology to make work-from-home easy
- Men and women should play equal role in raising kids
- All children should experience the binary nature of humans
Separation and Divorce
- Reform laws to disincentivize fickle divorce practices
- Make it easier to sue in cases of infidelity
- Special tax on divorced parents to finance societal costs
- The special tax kicks-in after children are 18 yo (if they have kids)
- Divorcees have no right to overburden society
Bullying
- This is essentially a group-think/control phenomena, which must be discouraged, since its highly dysgenic
- Make it easier to sue teachers and employers who do not stop bullying
Domestic Violence
- Police should decide whether to press charges in cases of domestic violence
- Allowing abused to drop charges = cycle of abuse
Community
- Leverage communities to solve and prevent social ills
- Tax rewards for membership and engagement
- Develop a social networking system (public sector)
- Digital social networks are important, and we need a stable alternative to the booms and busts from the private sector
- This system would take into account all data, and enable users to offer more data to enhance social matchmaking and growth
- Not only connecting you with people you know, but also those you should know (based on the big data analyses)
- Its purpose is to optimize the social aspects of society
- To fulfill both personal and professional needs: friendships, jobs, stable intimate relationships (create families), and find people that can help you or you can help
Orphanages and Adoption
- Only support honorable commercial orphanages
- Orphanages can be for-profit, but not excessively so
- Prioritize adoption of native children over foreign
- Turn the right to adopt into something prestigious
- Reserved for exceptionally qualified people
- Use incentives to make people want to adopt
Child Abuse
- Microchip sex felons and surveillance their web activity
- I.e. violating others privacy leads to loss of your own privacy
- Monitor at-risk children and their caregivers
- Stepparents are statistically more likely to abuse stepchildren than their own
Pets
- Allow all nonaggressive, semi-free, and trainable pets
- Species or races with history of unwarranted violence should be banned for anyone without special license
- E.g. Pitbull, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, etc.
- These should be banned from public spaces unless they are accompanied by police (or similar)
- The pet cannot be a risk to local ecosystem
- Do not allow permanently caged pets (e.g. birds)
