@ChamberOfReflection don't feel bad. I stopped voting over a decade ago after Bush sent me to Iraq twice for no reason. I swore never to vote again, then Trump came with all these promises to change the govt. He seemed legit: Why would a billionaire risk his life to be president. He's not part of the establishment. He can't be bought! He will 'drain the swamp" lol. He only CHANGED the swamp. The truth is, people give too much credit to presidents. They cannot do everything they want. We live under an oligarchy that dictates what happens. Neoconservatives run his cabinet. How we aren't at fully war with Iran is interesting, that he keeps pushing back against the war hawks, but that is irrelevant. Its just a matter of time till they figure out a way to dupe him or replace him with someone who will. The second Trump bomb Syria with zero proof at the behest of these insane murderous traitors in govt, I realized he was done. You can tell he is not even the same person who ran for office today. I'm a one issue voter and that's stopping the wars which trickle down and destroy everyone; from people across the planet, to our very own. The rest of our issue would solve themselves once we took the funding away from "defense" and use it towards medical, education etc. The only candidate who seems to be serious about that is Tulsi Gabbard, but of course, I do not agree with many other of her policies, and to think that the "deep state" military industrial complex would even allow her to win, would be very naïve of me. If she did miraculously win, she would be checked and balanced out, since our checks and balances are also compromised. She couldn't do anything without a willing congress; the bought off shills will just oppose her in every way. -

And there is a genetic/racial basis for it too. As I said. This study took black children and put them into white families to see what would happen. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota_Transracial_Adoption_Study -
@Commodent @possibilities good stuff gents, I like it

@GenuinePerspectiveXC well i agree. He would also not want to date a woman who is severly handicapped. Most humans will try to pair up with someone equal or a bit higher genetic fitness. This especially matters if one wants children. You do not knowingly want to pass on down syndrome or something to them -
@DrewNows thanks for the feedback. Good points.

@GenuinePerspectiveXC ite all fun and games until you ask them to let these folks into their houses lol. Its like these politicians who claim they love poc but live in all white neighborhoods or gated and secured communities. -

@GenuinePerspectiveXC @Aeris@GenuinePerspectiveXC what i mean by that is they build giant civilizations that retarded people could not possiblly build. Not sure what you mean by surviving.? Living conditions? -

@GenuinePerspectiveXC actually I wouldn't think the romans or Egyptians were retarded at all lol. -

@Leo Gurahow would we measure those proposed traits of wisdom and all? Just by watching your videos, we can all here safely assume you have a higher than average IQ, and if we watch some bums in a street, we can safely assume, by how they speak and act, if they are low IQ. You can tell if a dog is stupid or not, by its actions or lack of actions. I guess we could tell if some is moral or not by their actions, wise or not by the very same standard, but not sure there could be tests for this without objective moral standards (which don't exist) so we couldn't actually put together a test to know if they were moral or not, unless each country had its subjective moral tests, which would have to be a collective opinion. However, with the IQ tests these things which are quantifiable mathematically: "The IQ test consists of a number of tasks measuring various measures of intelligence including short-term memory, analytical thinking, mathematical ability and spatial recognition. Like all IQ tests it does not attempt to measure the amount of information you have learned but rather your capacity to learn." So some humans CANNOT learn beyond certain levels, like if a computer did not have enough memory to process X amount of information, it cannot run windows 10. Now I totally get where you are coming from...life isn't all about "success" with academics or jobs, and I totally understand that it is not the end all be all, infinite intelligence, but so far IQ has made predictions and that is what make sit useful, BUT it is limited. It also does have some explanatory power and can give us a picture WHY certain countries are a certain way and why certain groups have harder times absorbing education etc. With such truths, despite how hard they may be, we can actually be honest and make honest changes for the better. So instead of importing millions of unskilled low-IQ, why don't we have governments that go out and BUILD UP other countries. However, history shows us even this has failed. We have tried to rebuild Haiti so many times and yet it continues to destroy itself. This shows if a high IQ population builds something, you cannot expect a lower IQ population to maintain it. Would you agree @possibilities with my last paragraph? -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@GenuinePerspectiveXC many of my recent posts and graphs were not refuted. Although I agreed and said several times that IQ is simply a tool, a predictor, that can make predictions in GENERAL populations and be explanatory on that scale, but cannot predict if someone is evil or a pedophile or something. I think most people here are worried that admitting to IQ, or if it is extremely useful, that that automaitically means concentration camps and segregation. That is affirming the consequent as I stated before. I also stated that IQ is just ONE of the many measures; some people postulate there are 9-12 other intelligences. @Natasha As for EQ, I'm not sure it can be measured or quantified, but I agree, what good is a 200 IQ mass murderer? @possibilities the only reason I bought up IQ is to show why immigration from low IQ countries into high one was is counter productive and insane; AND, being pushed PURPOSELY to dumb down the population to become mindless consumers. I brought up race to show that intelligence is averaged higher in certain races... And for anyone implying white racism, ASIANS have the highest IQ, so these tests are not biased towards POC. Ultimately, when you study these psychopaths in power, what do you think they want? Smart, free individuals, or dumb worker slaves with no national identity or unifying culture constantly warring against one an other over this or that party or president or religion in the SAME area? Its obvious what these psychopaths want. Of course people say its a conspiracy but then cannot explain why politicians literally disregard their own voter's will and push things they never voted for. Brexit is a great example. The Brits voted to leave, Brexit won, and their "leaders" were like "Nah LOL" Didn't mean to cause a shit storm here but its good people are taking both sides here rather than what I expected everyone would flat out deny or reject what I was saying in full. -
@Commodent I agree with you that those terms are confusing to some because they are thrown around so much. What do you suggest we use instead? For example, the very friend who gave me my the advice HATES using the word ego, that too comes with a lot of baggage and instead uses "the chatter box" in your head or some other terms not thrown around by spiritual teachings. Perhaps we can come up with a better term than "letting go" whatever.

@Joseph Maynor thanks joe @Commodent correct, this is also referred to neuroplasticity. @kieranperez thanks. I feel that because you are even on the path and are aware of your issues, that it is only a matter of time until something clicks with you that will change your perspective about yourself. It seems to me that you literally hate yourself because you cannot reach your standard of perfection, as it is literally impossible to do so. It's like setting the bar 30 ft higher and getting mad that you can jump that high. Well no human can jump 30ft. I was the same way, and I'm sure I still will be from time to time, which is OK too. I was so hard on myself if I made a mistake on my diet or some other silly thing, that the angry response would ruin it totally "well fuck it I had a bag of chips, why not eat a full pizza because im a fucking loser who has no disciple." So really I think the solution is, focus on what you are great at, know your flaws, and work on the, and when you fuck up here and there, its TOTALLY OK and NORMAL, because no one is perfect since it is impossible. One you accept yourself; flaws and all, its a step towards greater love for oneself. Only then, can you truly share that love with others. Sure, you could to good work and all that for other people, but you will still suffer at the end of the day and all the good work you do, you will not even be able to truly appreciate it and want to do more than you can handle; setting off another explosion of self hate when you cannot fix the entire planet (I've been there). Its time to help yourself. Again, I cannot pretend to know what it is that you need to do, only you will know when you find out. Keep pushing onward.

@kieranperez I feel you bro. It took my friend 10 YEARS to "let go" of his problems. I myself have been suffering for a good 7 ever since I got out of the marines; I'm just now seeing "the light" so to speak, and I am fully aware that this doesn't mean all will be fine and dandy either. But just to reiterate, letting go doesn't mean you forget it ever happened its like it was like for the LULZ, it is saying OK, this shit happened, by why stab myself in the eyes for it ON TOP OF IT. SO you can let go of the self inflicted pain. The problem itself could still cause you suffering, but then you're only dealing with ONE punisher rather than two.

@SFRL thank you @Serotoninluv yes, the amount of pain I caused myself, there is no way I could actually fully enjoy life in those mind states. I still have work to do but this was certainly a huge revelation.

@GenuinePerspectiveXC I think what he is saying is, and I have implied in my previous posts, that IQ can surely help predict somethings statically or whatever but does no good for individual cases, and, doesn't encompass all other forms of "intelligence" which some have postulated are anywhere from 9-12 types. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Leo Gura I agree 100% -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
My tweet directly to Trump right under his attack on Ilhan that went viral; addressed to the maga crowd and whoever else spreading this nonsnse. I don't agree with her policies but that doesn't matter. I stand with justice and truth, nothing more and I will change my positions if my research or experiences lead me to do so. I've been criticized for that very reason, which is why I have pissed off so many different groups. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Serotoninluv Ok I see what you mean. Thanks for taking the time to elaborate. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I myself actually am an immigrant. I have nothing against legal immigration so long as it benefits the nation. What we have today is nonsensical immigration policies that are harming nations. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Leo Gura thanks for chiming in. No that is not my fundamental argument at all. Also, I do not have any fear of other or lack of understanding, I can see why you believe I do, and I don't think you have read all my posts in this thread because as I have stated several times that have a simple worldview: I realize that not all people can nor will get along so each should have the right to be in either homogenous OR mixed societies. I envision a world like our body and its organs; each nation doing its part for the whole. There is nothing wrong with it at all. You can even have multiculturalism if you wish, shit you can make new cultures, or you can reject everything and conserve your culture to the max by being isolationists. Who am I to judge? Who is anyone to? Each nation has its right to do what it wishes for the will of its people. I do not see how anyone could reject this simple and just worldview. For one to reject it would mean that they believe no nation-states should exist and should all be controlled by a centralize world govt, which is an utter fairytale and a form of supremacy. True diversity is actually having different cultures and people's around the world; sharing and caring with a global economy as you stated, but this must be organic and not some giant melting pot (by force) that actually blends away and destroys culture. Again, even the Dali Lama in the video said it. Its not about fear at all, none of it is. My activism on twitter is nonstop criticizing American foreign policy; from wars to sanctions and bullying of other nations. Although I voted for Trump thinking he would end war and "drain the swamp," which were the reasons I did ,not some retarded wall or tax cuts for rich folks, I have been one of his harshest critics out there the second he bombed Syria illegally and showed me he is a neoconservative cuck. I pissed doff all the maga folks whom I was associated with by calling them out because they REFUSED to call him out when he lied to us all, because they became e-famous blowing him. I had to defend Ilhan Omar when the media took her 911 comments out of context to twist her words. I don't agree with either her or Trump yet I defend people from lies and nonsense. I don't pick sides. I have compassion for the Palestinians and constantly expose Israeli war crimes which always gets me "anti-Semite" thrown at me; especially when Israelis are sniping children in crowds. I have compassion for women in India getting acid thrown on them; Little black girls getting their clitorises chopped off because of the barbaric practice of female circumcism in Africa. I care for animals. I'm nothing what everyone seems to be saying I am. Don't mistake my statements that I made (which have none have been refuted at all btw) with my world view. In fact, none of the things I posted were used to justify any policy or push any political ideology whatsoever. I was simply posting facts to remind us all that we are not just spiritual, but also biological machines. I used to be ethnocentric...yes, I was. I said that I was ultra-right, but before tha I was also super left. Neither is the case now. I took what was true and factual from those worldviews and discarded the rest. Whether you guys believe me or not is irrelevant, I'm telling you what I mean and what I am. but is is rather annoying to be called something you are not. If I started calling you a flat-earther after explaining that you weren't 1000 times, you'd be annoyed too lol. -

@Emeline The only problem is there never was an example of true anarchy in history. If a group of people want try to form an anarchy society somewhere, good luck to them. And yes, I understand that the Antifa thugs do not represent true anarchy. I am more of a statist myself, since I believe that is the only way to have a civilization with high living standards. I don't see how a truly anarchy society would even function and if the standard of living would be high. But again, I'm not here to judge nor do I care what people believe is the best govt for them. My position as an anti-supremacist is that all human beings should be able to form whatever govts they want and live in peace, without need to justify why the prefer that way of life to anyone. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Serotoninluv Again, this is an appeal to consequent fallacy. You assume people who promote race realism and back it with facts, such as the Barny-style examples I gave that two black people will never make an Asian baby, have an agenda to do what exactly? Tell the truth? The reality is, the opposite is the case; those who deny race and are pushing globalism with massive migration have a literal plan, you can look up the Kalergi Plan. Furthermore, George Soros, a student of Karl Popper, pushes for open societies. None of this can be sold to anyone if they believe race-realism is true, thus they must push nonsense that it is not true in order to convince the population that people from Sub Sahara Africa are going to blend right in perfectly with Swedes with zero repercussions whatsoever lol. We can see, across the entire planet, these open-society policies failing miserably; leading to riots and all the sorts of disorder and chaos. We see even native population being demonized in their own countries; politicians celebrating the mass immigration and displacement of their own. Celebrating that "Europeans will become a minority in Europe." Even the Dali Lama noticed this insanity. -

@Scholar Its not my position lol. I didn't make human beings. -
Angelo John Gage replied to Geromekevin's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
@Scholar right you assume I need help, but I don't. So far, no one has debunked anything I posted. All I got was "but you don't get it" and "you have to transcend true vs falsehood lol. If that is the case, that everything here is meaningless and no one has the right to debate at any position or use any science or any experience or anything whatsoever to make any point because its both true and false simultaneously. Reality doesn't work like that. Its nonsense to be frank. And when you await for someone to even address a single point made ,"you don't get it bro, you're stage blue/orange. Well, here I just made up stage Gray. Stage Gray is super beyond Turquoise and green and no one even knows what it is, thus everything you say is false, but its not false because stage Gray includes fallacies and treats them as truths because that's what I observed. You cannot stage Gray doesn't because who are you to deny it? Have you experienced it? No? You don't get stage Gray or where I am coming from, thus it is a waste of time to speak to you AND I do not need to debunk your phony nonsense. This is the equivalent as a Christian apologist saying " well god works in mysterious ways" when they cannot produce a SHRED of proof for ANY of their beliefs in anyway. Telling someone because they are in some stage which some guys made up is the reason you cannot address ANYTHING they said with any facts, its cop out of the highest order. That's what I'm getting here so far and its quite silly if you ask me.
