You can be as smart as you want and still won't be able to achieve anything due to bad luck and genetics. Willpower and discipline have a genetic component, and they are definitely separate from inteligence. Seems like you just want to indirectly toot your own horn by negging yet again, to feel superior

For sure, it's been the ultimate spiritual battleground as well, I was just trying to emphasize the material importance of the region as well. But the reason behind the crusades for example wasn't material, it was actually spiritual, the christians back then really came to just kick muslim ass, rather than achieve any materialistic goal - in fact, the venture was highly risky and costly for everyone involved. It's actually pretty interesting that all 3 major monotheistic religions came from this general area (if you count arabian region as well in the case of Islam); even zoroastrianism, even though it's not major religion by any means, survived to this day in India; originated in Persia/Iran -

@Sugarcoat Well, although this is me blaming the land instead of humans again - it is just way too strategic. Intersection between 3 continents, access to seas, rivers providing fertile land despite the climate and the terrain, many exotic goods. The most significant and largest trade route comming all the way from China traveled throught these chokepoints for thousands of years. And then the oil was discovered. It's just too important to be left alone -

Humans really love to fight over this particuliar area of land, it's contains the densest recorded conflict quantity over the course of history -

They don't have to become a zillionaire, just manage their situation according to the extent of their abilities. They don't have to win, they can just stop losing - that's what I meant. Almost everyone has enough bootstraps to stop losing -

I was moreso reffering to a consumer being self responsible within caputalism; capitalism is a mirror pointed at you at all times, exposing how strong your values really are via your purchases. The "capitalists", whoever those are, wouldn't be able to make their profits if the demand changed. Obviously I don't expect them to be self responsible, but the consumer's purchases are exposing what the human nature is really like, without any guardrails by the daddy goverment. You claim that it is a goverments job to enforce rules by providing incentives and dissincentives and regulations, and "stop a capitalist from destroying the enviroment", and yet all of the major enviromental crisies we are facing today (and have faced in the past), are either directly caused by the actions of goverments (global waming - majority of global oil and gas production, and coal mines/coal factories are state owned enterprises), or indirectly via no regulations/incorrectly placed incentives (fishing, deforestation, etc.). So, while it is one of the functions of the goverment to enforce regulations and incentives correctly and rule responsibly, it is doing a pretty poor job at it - and have, in fact, never done a good job at it really. Meanwhile, most of the practical research and deployment of innovations that can help with all of these crisies have company/capitalist origin, so you gotta wonder who really represents the will of the people? Isn't it goverments who are the ones that ACTUALLY do what they want? If the goverment does badly, who's going to stop them? Nope. Just human nature ------------------------------------- Yall are free to respond once you gather some facts and well crafted arguments lmao until then, my anti socwokie shield is activated -

NPC realist for the win - he can become a neoliberal chud or the soy soccel depending on what the situation requires; since he is humannaturemaxxing. Blending in with the enviroment is an excelent evolutionary trait -

No commie, nor socwokie here is really even arguing with a capitalist here, for all intents and purphoses that term is largely meaningless by now. Really, they're arguing with a human-naturalists; proponents of capitalism aren't really glazing capitalism or "capitalists" per ce, what they're doing is they believe and understand the concept of human nature, and think that capitalism is the framework/architecture that suits it most accurately. Whereas commies and socwokes think human nature is malleable, or they don't even believe in it - they just think human nature is an invention of capitalism/capitalists -

Goes to show you how much of a mumbo jumbo BS all of this spirituality stuff really is - even the strain preached on this forum - there are basically no cognitive costs/efforts included in jumping from new agey spirituality to other kinds of spirituality and vice versa; and then jumping from those to any kind of mainstream religion, and vice versa. Oh yes, I'm sure she had to put a lot of thought and effort in order to transition to Jesus LOL such an insurmountable barrier to entry

You can "just cooperate" within a small, impoverished primitive tribe, it's not gonna happen within the confines of enormous, complex society. It's not even gonna happen once the population reaches a small town - village seems to be the limit/extent of communism being somewhat workable. But even the village size is seriously starting to push it. If our nature was communist, we would just form effortlessly into a ant hill/bee hive, clearly we are selfish and individualistic first and foremost, we are working based on mutual incentives and disincentives, in other words, transactionally. We also have some drive to be good - but being good within the context of being a human within human society can be highly relative, and it's not nearly as big of a drive as our selfishness. Furthermore, you can achieve a lot positive things from a position of selfish altruism as I keep saying, so it's not so black and white It is scientifically proven that you can only care about MAX 150 people, it's called the Dunbar's number. Realistically you're gonna care about much less. You think this doesn't translate into politics? That's very naive -

@Elliott What evidence do you have that something like that is even possible? There's never been a communist society in the history of humanity - the closest to communism we ever were, was during the Stone Age in our most primitive state. Of course, in such a circumstance it is easy to have a classless (there was still some hierarchy even then though), stateless society - because they had nothing. And even then, they were ridden by material basic incentives, not morality or good heart -
Just like it is not possible to pay no taxes, it is impossible to take wooks seriously, or even bothering to pay attention to what they're saying

As a human, you are always going to worship something even if you don't consider yourself religious (which is essentially the whole schtick of Jordan Peterson when atheists are trying to push him to clearly state whether he believes or doesn't believe in God). As a wokie, generally you are worshiping the concept of human rights, tolerance, equality and the groups of people that you view as opressed (there's a hierachy of oppression pointing downwards, the more characteristics that presuppose oppression you exhibit or posses, the more your opinion matters and the higher oppression score you get; and the lower your oppression score is, the less your opinion matters); And as a tradchuddie or even fashie, you are worshiping the concepts of duty, strength, hierachy (pointing upwards; the more desirable characteristics you posses or exhibit, the more superior you are and the opposite; the less, the more inferior you are), obedience, order -

First of all, you don't KNOW if they won't ever see any benefits from this. You just assume that because of your socwokie bias. It is a long term, strategically crucial investment on a national level with an outcome that is not certain - but taking risks never produces certain outcomes, and yet it is absolutely neccessery for progress of any kind, so of course it is important to invest into it. You think surplus of energy additional nuclear reactors would provide is a bad thing? That is objectively a good thing, it'd only be bad if safety precautions were neglected, but nuclear power is one of them most regulated and secure energy there is - it has to be. And why are you bringing up the lowest common denominators of the work force, romanticizing them as if they are the end-all-be-all of what yall should aspire to as a nation? Sure, they are providing their own value in a relatively small ways, but what are they doing to advance anything? Sounds like BS, homes aren't 70% built by four companies, that's fake, top builders do under half of new ones. Agriculture, fast food, and cars consolidate from scale, tech, and you buying the cheap option every time, not some road conspiracy
