Reminds me of this in 2016: "We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with POORLY educated, I love the poorly educated.." 😂
That was a massive appeal. He's not a politician. We seriously need term limits on everything and we need to dismantle the career politician thing. Its disgustingly corrupt.
Indeed. Obama was a fantastic politician, but a truly shitty leader. Trump is not a politician, I'd even go so far as to say a bad politician, but is a fantastic leader. Our country needs leaders. We have no need for politicians.
That would depend on how you define a politician. If you define one by how well they pander to everybody then I'd agree. But if you define a politician by how well they can make their adversaries show their ass I'd say Trump is a top notch politician. And he's absolutely hilarious. That shit with Nancy and calling her ass off the bus during the government shutdown still has me laughing. It's also got me noticing, we're not having too many government shutdowns after that.
Sigh, I screwed it up. I heard the Chrono Cross Victory theme, which naturally originated in Chrono Trigger, but CT didn't do victory themes, but you know the one I mean.
I'm in my 40's and have literally never voted for President. This election will be my first. Last year I donated to a campaign for the first time, something I never thought I'd ever do just a few years ago. I've had effectively no faith in the political system, with choices like Obama vs McCain or Romney, it felt like it was left handed puppet vs right handed puppet.
I was not one of the disenfranchised that showed up to vote for the first time in 2016, but I will show up this year. Democrats have said America will see a second wave soon and they aren't wrong. I think the amount of disenfranchised voters showing up in 2020 will be greater than those who joined up in 2016.
I think it's going to be epic, and the reaction from will be insanity like we've never seen.
High IQ doesn't equate to moral either. The high IQ commies don't believe communism is just, or morale, or natural. They think they can utilize such a system to get the majority of other people.
Which is always interesting given evolution isn't science. No testing has ever been done, and by definition can never be. It's a solely observational theory, based on nearly 0 observations. We don't find hundreds of millions of intermediate species or even fossil records of them, despite the fact that there should be far more "in-betweens" than fully developed species. And all of this isn't even taking into account that ALL mutations are a net loss. Not just the ones that kill you or make you unfit (which is the vast majority) but even the ones that leave you better able to survive in one situation leave you worse off in another. There's always a trade off. You always give something up to excel in a different area, making you worse off and less able to adapt to different situations overall.
Edit: lots of pseudo-intellectuals here think they know what they're talking about, and it's hilarious.
You’re understanding of biology and the theory of evolution are severely lacking. You can certainly choose not to believe it, but you need to understand a subject before you can truly judge.
You mean they observed it not happening. While some changes may occur, not enough so that the offspring are no longer capable of mating with the previous generations and producing viable offspring that are not sterile.
Not to say that evolution is true or not, but the studies do not show the development of new species in the traditional sense of the word. That is why the definition has been changed so that things like location or color make for different species; with the notable exception of humans of course.
Maybe they can't observe it happening with humans, but in animals with shorter generations, we can easily have them go through enough generations to have documented evidence of evolution. Foxes and wolves can be domesticated via many generations over several decades, insects can change to adapt to a new environment (sometimes changing so much that they become a different species), etc.
You are correct that we can observe adaptation and there is no doubt that through selective breeding we can change many traits.
How you define a species is key here. Long ago, in the before time, i was taught that species were capable of interbreeding. Now, scientists define species more by looks, traits and location observed.
We all know that dogs are descendants of wolves. But we also know that if a dog and wolf mate they will have offspring that are healthy and capable of reproduction. We would have previously called them the same species; now some scientists say they are distinct.
Yet when a horse mates with a donkey a mule is produced, and that mule is incapable of further breeding. All agree they are separate species.
It is a question of how you define a species. Have they adapted or evolved? In the experiments with fruit flues they never reached a point where the descendent was biologically different enough that mating with normal fruit flies was impossible. Yet the theory of evolution does not only account for the changes we see between dogs and wolves, but also the change between a saber tooth tiger and a house cat.
All that to say, im fine with evolution as a theory based on fossil records; but i doubt we can show an example of it happening in the time of modern science because i still view species as being based on genetic code and ability to reproduce. Blacks and asians look different and are found on different continents; but i won’t consider them different species.
I saw an incredible debate not long ago where a guy used math to show how little is actually known about adaptation. He wouldn't call it evolution, because he claimed the theory was embarrassingly incorrect. Anyway the guy measured how long it would take a single mutation to spread across a population and become fixed as a trait for an entire species. Then he took the number of known traits in chimpanzees and showed that the chimpanzee species would have to be billions of years older than the earth, or that the theory of evolution was way way way off.
So if you think we didn’t evolve what then? The fact that we have dogs and they are direct descendants of wolves kind of proves evolution to me. We can see the similarities but they are clearly different. Doesn’t seem so far fetched.
Your post just made me start thinking theoretically and abstractly but to indulge you.
As you said on paper for life to evolve as it has it'd take longer than the universe is old. That is time on a linear scale, now what if time wasn't always linear? There are black holes, quasar bursts, dark energy, and dark matter and we are unsure on all the ways in which they may react and interact with matter.
Throw in panspermia and "life" on Earth could very well outdate the solar system. Then there are the constant waves of extinction that often wiped down most of a life form setting conditions for a new type to proliferate. Lots of variables corroborated to get us to where we are.
Was it smart design or guided evolution? No one can answer that with certainty since there isn't enough knowledge to have a definite answer only a speculation to how things have become.
That is pretty funny.
Clearly, if we’re God doing intelligent design, would sit around designing every blade of grass? Or would you put in place some sort of AI that does the grunt work for you (i.e. evolution)?
Not to be flippant, but isn't being a creator kinda his thing though? It's like playing a crafting/building game only to use an AI to design things for you. Not saying that delegating the "grunt work" wouldn't be possible, but would it be desirable? Maybe he enjoys designing every blade of grass?
Of course that's assuming an entity like God has the same sort of desires or joys that humans do. The dynamics of being on that level and not being something like a low level human always makes me wonder about such things.
I think the experience of being Ged is so far beyond our own experiences that we could not imagine it, like how an ant does not know what it is like to use a cell phone. What would it be like to be able to pay attention to many things at one time, take action on those things (without having to use clumsy human hands to make those things happen) and not go insane? I have no idea.
The idea of intelligent design and evolution co-existing is consistent with Catholic teachings and probably most mainline churches. It's really only hardcore Evangelicals who deny and revile evolution in its entirety.
i know like 'conspiracy theorist' has any sting anymore lol. He believes 911 was an inside job, oh you mean like everyone else who even glances at that subject. This guy should join us, we could use his high level IQ..Who knows maybe he's among us.
My uncle Joe is the smartest guy in my family. He's well educated (from a time when that meant something) and very charming; lives in the country, has a farm with horses and chickens. As a kid I thought that was so weird, now as I get more red pilled it's all I want in the world.
Actually, it makes me think of Stanley Kubrick as well. Guy was pretty easily the most high IQ filmmaker who ever lived. Spent a year or two in LA making Spartacus and fucking despised it. Realized he needed to be near a metropolitan area to make films and picked London for the added advantage of being 8 hours ahead of the studio suits. Lived a cloistered life in the countryside with his family, had all the filmmaking facilities he needed right in his house. Hired assistants that were either industry outsiders or his own family. Remained as anonymous as he could his whole life. And his last film was about how secret societies of pedophile elites run the world. Reportedly he thought it was his best film, and while many would disagree, it took most people over 20 years to discover the coded messaging of The Shining (which is probably the most obvious example of his employing that technique). Guy was based.
In short, the film is subliminally about the genocide of the American Indian. Check out the documentary Room 237; there are some far fetched theories in it and part of the point of the doc is that some people are so obsessed with the film that they start to see things that aren't there (like Kubrick somehow photoshopping his face into the clouds of a scene).
What I can tell you off the top of my head is that the sets were deliberately designed with spacial impossibilities, the most famous being the impossible window in Ullman's office during Jack's interview; we watch Jack walk from the lobby into the office located toward the center of the hotel, but there is a giant window behind Ullman's desk looking out at the mountains that couldn't possible exist in real life. The sets are so well designed, most people think it was shot in a real hotel which disarms their conscious brain from noticing, but all those spacial fallacies compound on the viewers subconscious over the course of the film to create a feeling of unease. I remember feeling exactly that when I first watched it in my teens: "That wasn't so scary, but I do feel very strange after watching it."
Rob Ager has a number of great videos about the Shining and a huge number of other films that, while very dry, are extremely interesting. So be prepared; to the average viewer they're pretty boring.
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.”
I don't believe Langan went to Harvard. Malcolm Gladwell has an interesting few chapters in his book, "Outliers" on Langan. Brilliant guy, but did not have the family support he needed to be steered toward a Harvard way of things. Eventually, he said 'eff traditional schooling' and became a rancher.
Yes, that was exactly Langan's point. It's been a while since I read it, but Gladwell fits Langan into his thesis of 'outliers' (geniuses) aren't necessarily successful on their own, but have to put in the 10k hours of work/experience. I think he compared Langan to Oppenheimer. Whereas Oppenheimer had all kinds of support and help from his family (thus the 10k hours of learning how to put his genius to work), Langan missed all that. Langan is still a genius, just not one that lived to his potential. Not sure if I buy all of Gladwell's thesis, but interesting read.
I'd argue that your potential is whatever you make of it. You don't need a college degree to learn everything, most jobs that do want a degree accept certifications and/or work experience in lieu of a degree (and sometimes even prefer it over someone with a giant degree and 0 work experience), and the best things in life often can't be found in any textbook.
Extremely intelligent individuals on the very far end of the spectrum often have a hard time advancing in society because they don't fit the molds and have a hard time doing things that they think are stupid (which is a lot).
Langan's probably the clearest example of this phenomenon. I've read some of more philosophical writings, and his mind is just so far out there that I bet he doesn't have anyone to really bounce ideas off of.
He went to some college but dropped out due to funds yes.
The thing about high IQ is that you can land anywhere in society with it. from the top to the bottom. Depending on how you choose to live your life.
If you have low IQ you likely are stuck at the bottom, your potential is limited and in order to exceed your potential you need to be given things you couldnt earn on your own. usually by smarter people using you or taking pity on you.
Midwits are the worst. Just smart enough to understand the words and the 'reasoning' in the bullshit propaganda belched forth by the media, but not smart enough to see the inconsistencies.
I'd rather deal with a simple man than a midwit any day.
Yeah, it's disheartening a lot of mid-wit girls I used to date looked up to me for being really smart. Now they are indoctrinated and I want nothing to do with em. I rather be drinking beer on a porch making fart jokes then being told I'm a privelaged white male.
Fun fact: On average, women's IQ tends to be more focused around the middle of the spectrum. They have less retards (IQ <70), but they also have less geniuses (IQ >130).
You can still find the extreme cases if you try, but the ratio of smart men to smart women tends to be fairly close to the male-to-female ratio in STEM courses: 4+ men for every woman...
White pede with a soft spot for Latinas here, known plenty of midwit Latinas decide to start spewing that nonsense white privilege at me and insinuate I'm inherently a bad person and I just laugh as in my head I'm thinking about all the different times she's swallowed.... her pride to be with me if that's what she really thought
There is a word here that describes the lifestyle: incongruent. There's a reason that they can only ever get along with others like them, it's because anybody can see how radically different what they claim to believe and how they actually live really is, and it just makes them come off as unhinged hypocrites.
This also explains why you have more brilliant minds who are men, and more serial killers and psychopaths who are men, because men occupy the extremes of the spectrum. Women can bitch and complain about how sexism is to blame for their lack of representation in STEM and high paying executive jobs, when in reality it's just genetics.
I would argue that being a serial killer or a psychopath has nothing to do with IQ (intelligence quotient), but a lot to do with EQ (emotion quotient): the truly infamous serial killers use their high IQ to cover up the evidence of their crimes (driven by their abnormal EQ), but even the dumbest guy in the class can be a psychopath.
Now, depending on who's talking, some people will argue that psychopaths and sociopaths have a low EQ (as in "they don't feel emotions at all, and are dead to the world"), while others will argue that psychopaths/sociopaths have an extremely high EQ (as in "they are perfectly able to understand every aspect of emotion, to the point that they can control other people's emotions with the same ease as a painter wielding his brush").
There's still a tremendous amount that we don't know about the human mind (it's difficult to create a computer powerful enough to examine itself without making it so complex that said computer can only understand small portions of its own function rather than the complete working model), so there's still a lot more we can learn about ourselves, and we still have much more room to grow.
It's a subconscious form of jealousy because most of them can't actually see that he is smarter than them. I have friends who think that they could out-debate him on everything including foreign policy...and then I ask who is Japan's PM and they don't know, but they say well because he gets briefings...so they admit he is smarter at politics but that they could be if they chose to do politics. They think they have more cognitive ability, but it's very unlikely given that Trump had success in many areas at a young age, went to selective schools, explains complex ideas in simple ways, plus the other common signs of high-iq
I wish I could say the same. Many of my friends are extremely smart, but the liberal social bubble is, so to speak, an extremely high-pressure vessel. Each additional invective laid atop the pile against conservatism is another sword hanging over the head of anyone who might dare question the prevailing party line. Once the left gained enough power to advance to the Orwellian stage of their narrative-crafting--that is, to force narratives that are self-evidently false in order to cow and humiliate everyone forced to parrot these falsehoods--the pressure within leftist social circles has become traumatizing. During COVID I've seen my social circle go from obliviously believing whatever is on MSNBC with very little conviction (but of course, arrogant moral certainty), to becoming wildly, dangerously neurotic about every aspect of their daily lives.
They thrash and writhe about how their parents keep calling BLM a Marxist organization (God bless them). It's actually quite disconcerting seeing how quickly they are prepared to sell out their families to the leftist cabal. Make no mistake: Mao's Red Guard wasn't some particular brand of Asiatic madness; it can and will happen here. These people don't even need a push; they're already there. They simply don't have a militant group they can easily call on to execute their political enemies (and family) yet.
Yep. One of the smartest people I've ever known would regularly post inflammatory things on FB pre 2016 election and alienated much of his own family in the process. He couldn't have been more right.
The one line always removed when it's brought up by leftists. Bitches still piss their pants to be an onahole for Chris brown despite almost killing rihanna. Now imagine a richer man without a violent history. Pretty sure they were begging for the billionaire finger bang.
History books used to be based. It used to be the thought of leeches one day writing the books was laughable. You can see this bizarre battle breaking out all over academia, in biology, psychology, Crusade history, political science, all these intellectual pursuits slowly swarmed by leeches always scheming in a united fashion for more influence and control while winning not a single point.
Now they are the church of academia.
The great minds languish in the shadows and dusty volumes of history.
That's ok, as long as you home school your kids in the classics, you will produce a person who stands atop all off human history and can set it right at will.
I don't take too much stock in IQ, at least not as a hard descriptor for intelligence, but I don't deny it's valuable when used to identify the cause of certain behaviors in certain groups.
It's also pretty incredible that most people are closer in intelligence to a monkey than to this guy. This is why we don't use the popular vote!
I read his explanation for the universe when I was in high school and it impressed me because it made sense and was easy to understand, but I had no context in physics or philosophy to evaluate it and I don't remember it well
Isn't it interesting how a lot of the actual smart people in the world seem to know what's really going on and they're often painted by the MSM and Politicians as being "far right"?
I saw this: Langan's support of conspiracy theories, including the 9/11 Truther movement (Langan has claimed that the George W. Bush administration staged the 9/11 attacks in order to distract the public from learning about the CTMU) and the white genocide conspiracy theory...
The sentences were waaaay too long, and many words gave me headaches. I think we need someone with a higher IQ than me to read this and summarize. The best I came up with is that they are using tautologies to control my mind. Since I'm blind to this control, I'm a well behaved puppet. I hope I read it wrong.
US is important because they steal all our taxpayer money. The US has so much wealth, and it's being stolen away. That's the ultimate crime taking place.
Just went down a Christopher Langan rabbit hole. Definitely not my kind of guy to hang out with but I like his ideas. Went to his website and read a few of his abstracts about his theories of reality
Trump says shit, and he gets that shit done. Everything else is immaterial. Yes, he may come across as narcissistic and as a buffoon at times, and he is without a doubt not the most eloquent president the US has had. But none of that matters. Do you want to get what you vote for or do you want ultimately meaningless feel-good? And who knows, perhaps Trump is in fact an idiot.
But that just means the rest of Washington is even dumber, because unless intelligence is a handicap in politics, there is little explanation on how he has consistently ran circles around the establishment.
Shoutout to the MEGA foundation! So glad to finally see him here. One of the greatest inspirations for me personally as someone who "failed" the GATE pipeline.
First paragraph sums up the last 50+ years history of globalist bankster run American political machinations so succinctly. They made constant attrition against any who would oppose them. Whether a war of blood and bullets, or one of economic spell-craft, it was a grand design to dismantle the greatest country to exist in modern times.
I really hope Trump can somehow donkey-punch these comtard faggots into ever-loving orbit.
Reminds me of this in 2016: "We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with POORLY educated, I love the poorly educated.." 😂
It’s extra special cause it refers to the non-indoctrinated. POTUS ❤️
Poorly educated kids are just as bright as whitely educated kids!
😅👌

Trump rallied the largest disenchanted voting base ever and got them to vote again.
Literally the best politician in the world isn't even a politician.

In a young girl's heart
Which is always interesting given evolution isn't science. No testing has ever been done, and by definition can never be. It's a solely observational theory, based on nearly 0 observations. We don't find hundreds of millions of intermediate species or even fossil records of them, despite the fact that there should be far more "in-betweens" than fully developed species.

I can't tell if you are serious.

Theyve done evolution tests with insects and observed it happening
You mean they observed it not happening. While some changes may occur, not enough so that the offspring are no longer capable of mating with the previous generations and producing viable offspring that are not sterile.
Not to say that evolution is true or not, but the studies do not show the development of new species in the traditional sense of the word. That is why the definition has been changed so that things like location or color make for different species; with the notable exception of humans of course.
Maybe they can't observe it happening with humans, but in animals with shorter generations, we can easily have them go through enough generations to have documented evidence of evolution.

Hell, even Darwin's Finches
Nope that was epigenetics, not evolution
So that you know, Vatican and Catholic church are supporting evolution and science.
Evolution is science.
Either way, I can work with creationists and scientific evolutionists alike, as long as we agree on the core values.
Why would I care what the Pope thinks? Evolution isn't science. It's dogma at best.
Pope does not think. You should care as it was an organized religion that promoted creationism. They no longer do.
I think very little of Catholicism, so that's not a convincing argument.
Your mutation theory is pure BS. Gotta call you out on that
I saw an incredible debate not long ago where a guy used math to show how little is actually known about adaptation. He wouldn't call it evolution, because he claimed the theory was embarrassingly incorrect. Anyway the guy measured how long it would take a single mutation to spread across a population and become fixed as a trait for an entire species. Then he took the number of known traits in chimpanzees and showed that the chimpanzee species would have to be billions of years older than the earth, or that the theory of evolution was way way way off.
All it takes is a little logic to see that we are being taught a bunch of shit
So if you think we didn’t evolve what then? The fact that we have dogs and they are direct descendants of wolves kind of proves evolution to me. We can see the similarities but they are clearly different. Doesn’t seem so far fetched.
Nothing wrong with "wild ideas". Only thing we know for sure, is the official story is bullshit every time
All that sounds good while we believe time is a constant. Break time and everything is and was possible.
Your post just made me start thinking theoretically and abstractly but to indulge you.

High IQ. ONE OF US

Interesting guy. I had never heard of him before this.
I hadn’t either. My favorite part is he’s has this 200+ IQ and went to Harvard but he decides to be a horse rancher.
Proves he is, indeed, very intelligent.
He could have been such a great Gender Studies pioneer. Discovered new genders even. Shame, what a waste.
How do you know he isn't gendering horses?
AOC has entered the chat.

Sarah Jessica-Parker is probably glad she's no longer the go to reference for horse face jokes.
It do be like that.
My uncle Joe is the smartest guy in my family. He's well educated (from a time when that meant something) and very charming; lives in the country, has a farm with horses and chickens. As a kid I thought that was so weird, now as I get more red pilled it's all I want in the world.
Actually, it makes me think of Stanley Kubrick as well. Guy was pretty easily the most high IQ filmmaker who ever lived. Spent a year or two in LA making Spartacus and fucking despised it. Realized he needed to be near a metropolitan area to make films and picked London for the added advantage of being 8 hours ahead of the studio suits. Lived a cloistered life in the countryside with his family, had all the filmmaking facilities he needed right in his house. Hired assistants that were either industry outsiders or his own family. Remained as anonymous as he could his whole life. And his last film was about how secret societies of pedophile elites run the world. Reportedly he thought it was his best film, and while many would disagree, it took most people over 20 years to discover the coded messaging of The Shining (which is probably the most obvious example of his employing that technique). Guy was based.
Coded messages in The Shining? Tell me more .
In short, the film is subliminally about the genocide of the American Indian. Check out the documentary Room 237; there are some far fetched theories in it and part of the point of the doc is that some people are so obsessed with the film that they start to see things that aren't there (like Kubrick somehow photoshopping his face into the clouds of a scene).
What I can tell you off the top of my head is that the sets were deliberately designed with spacial impossibilities, the most famous being the impossible window in Ullman's office during Jack's interview; we watch Jack walk from the lobby into the office located toward the center of the hotel, but there is a giant window behind Ullman's desk looking out at the mountains that couldn't possible exist in real life. The sets are so well designed, most people think it was shot in a real hotel which disarms their conscious brain from noticing, but all those spacial fallacies compound on the viewers subconscious over the course of the film to create a feeling of unease. I remember feeling exactly that when I first watched it in my teens: "That wasn't so scary, but I do feel very strange after watching it."
Rob Ager has a number of great videos about the Shining and a huge number of other films that, while very dry, are extremely interesting. So be prepared; to the average viewer they're pretty boring.

Collative Learning channel is awesome! Haven't seen this one, watching it now
Oh cool, nice to see someone familiar with his stuff.
My favourite video was his one about Scorsese's Cape Fear, but it's behind the paywall now.
He clearly understands where happiness really comes from.
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.”

GLORIA IN EXCELSIS DEO
I don't believe Langan went to Harvard. Malcolm Gladwell has an interesting few chapters in his book, "Outliers" on Langan. Brilliant guy, but did not have the family support he needed to be steered toward a Harvard way of things. Eventually, he said 'eff traditional schooling' and became a rancher.
Harvard is a waste for anyone truly intelligent anyway. It's a credential factory.
Yes, that was exactly Langan's point. It's been a while since I read it, but Gladwell fits Langan into his thesis of 'outliers' (geniuses) aren't necessarily successful on their own, but have to put in the 10k hours of work/experience. I think he compared Langan to Oppenheimer. Whereas Oppenheimer had all kinds of support and help from his family (thus the 10k hours of learning how to put his genius to work), Langan missed all that. Langan is still a genius, just not one that lived to his potential. Not sure if I buy all of Gladwell's thesis, but interesting read.
I'd argue that your potential is whatever you make of it. You don't need a college degree to learn everything, most jobs that do want a degree accept certifications and/or work experience in lieu of a degree (and sometimes even prefer it over someone with a giant degree and 0 work experience), and the best things in life often can't be found in any textbook.
Harvard screwed up Unabomber Ted. Genius Underage MkUltra victim
Extremely intelligent individuals on the very far end of the spectrum often have a hard time advancing in society because they don't fit the molds and have a hard time doing things that they think are stupid (which is a lot).
Langan's probably the clearest example of this phenomenon. I've read some of more philosophical writings, and his mind is just so far out there that I bet he doesn't have anyone to really bounce ideas off of.
Truly gets worse as you get older too
He went to some college but dropped out due to funds yes.
The thing about high IQ is that you can land anywhere in society with it. from the top to the bottom. Depending on how you choose to live your life.
If you have low IQ you likely are stuck at the bottom, your potential is limited and in order to exceed your potential you need to be given things you couldnt earn on your own. usually by smarter people using you or taking pity on you.
See the NBA. Despite making millions of dollars, most of the players end up poor after blowing it all.
I highly recommend ESPN 30 for 30 documentary Broke.
he didn't go to Harvard
and a bouncer at a bar lol. Not everyone chases status and money.
Midwits are the worst. Just smart enough to understand the words and the 'reasoning' in the bullshit propaganda belched forth by the media, but not smart enough to see the inconsistencies.
I'd rather deal with a simple man than a midwit any day.
Yeah, it's disheartening a lot of mid-wit girls I used to date looked up to me for being really smart. Now they are indoctrinated and I want nothing to do with em. I rather be drinking beer on a porch making fart jokes then being told I'm a privelaged white male.
Fun fact: On average, women's IQ tends to be more focused around the middle of the spectrum. They have less retards (IQ <70), but they also have less geniuses (IQ >130).
You can still find the extreme cases if you try, but the ratio of smart men to smart women tends to be fairly close to the male-to-female ratio in STEM courses: 4+ men for every woman...
White pede with a soft spot for Latinas here, known plenty of midwit Latinas decide to start spewing that nonsense white privilege at me and insinuate I'm inherently a bad person and I just laugh as in my head I'm thinking about all the different times she's swallowed.... her pride to be with me if that's what she really thought
There is a word here that describes the lifestyle: incongruent. There's a reason that they can only ever get along with others like them, it's because anybody can see how radically different what they claim to believe and how they actually live really is, and it just makes them come off as unhinged hypocrites.
This also explains why you have more brilliant minds who are men, and more serial killers and psychopaths who are men, because men occupy the extremes of the spectrum. Women can bitch and complain about how sexism is to blame for their lack of representation in STEM and high paying executive jobs, when in reality it's just genetics.
I would argue that being a serial killer or a psychopath has nothing to do with IQ (intelligence quotient), but a lot to do with EQ (emotion quotient): the truly infamous serial killers use their high IQ to cover up the evidence of their crimes (driven by their abnormal EQ), but even the dumbest guy in the class can be a psychopath.
Here's some different examples of ways to measure a person's mind beyond just an IQ test: https://www.1800nt.com/%E2%97%90-iq-test-measures-only-three-out-of-seven-types-of-intelligence/9212/ and https://agileleanlife.com/different-types-of-intelligence/
Now, depending on who's talking, some people will argue that psychopaths and sociopaths have a low EQ (as in "they don't feel emotions at all, and are dead to the world"), while others will argue that psychopaths/sociopaths have an extremely high EQ (as in "they are perfectly able to understand every aspect of emotion, to the point that they can control other people's emotions with the same ease as a painter wielding his brush").
There's still a tremendous amount that we don't know about the human mind (it's difficult to create a computer powerful enough to examine itself without making it so complex that said computer can only understand small portions of its own function rather than the complete working model), so there's still a lot more we can learn about ourselves, and we still have much more room to grow.
It's a subconscious form of jealousy because most of them can't actually see that he is smarter than them. I have friends who think that they could out-debate him on everything including foreign policy...and then I ask who is Japan's PM and they don't know, but they say well because he gets briefings...so they admit he is smarter at politics but that they could be if they chose to do politics. They think they have more cognitive ability, but it's very unlikely given that Trump had success in many areas at a young age, went to selective schools, explains complex ideas in simple ways, plus the other common signs of high-iq
Why are the drawings so different did somebody take over drawing from Scott Adams?
I wish I could say the same. Many of my friends are extremely smart, but the liberal social bubble is, so to speak, an extremely high-pressure vessel. Each additional invective laid atop the pile against conservatism is another sword hanging over the head of anyone who might dare question the prevailing party line. Once the left gained enough power to advance to the Orwellian stage of their narrative-crafting--that is, to force narratives that are self-evidently false in order to cow and humiliate everyone forced to parrot these falsehoods--the pressure within leftist social circles has become traumatizing. During COVID I've seen my social circle go from obliviously believing whatever is on MSNBC with very little conviction (but of course, arrogant moral certainty), to becoming wildly, dangerously neurotic about every aspect of their daily lives.
They thrash and writhe about how their parents keep calling BLM a Marxist organization (God bless them). It's actually quite disconcerting seeing how quickly they are prepared to sell out their families to the leftist cabal. Make no mistake: Mao's Red Guard wasn't some particular brand of Asiatic madness; it can and will happen here. These people don't even need a push; they're already there. They simply don't have a militant group they can easily call on to execute their political enemies (and family) yet.
Yep. One of the smartest people I've ever known would regularly post inflammatory things on FB pre 2016 election and alienated much of his own family in the process. He couldn't have been more right.
I have no doubts that the man with the highest IQ in the world is right here.
The one line always removed when it's brought up by leftists. Bitches still piss their pants to be an onahole for Chris brown despite almost killing rihanna. Now imagine a richer man without a violent history. Pretty sure they were begging for the billionaire finger bang.
You can kiss them and they let you do it!
They remove the lines before it, too, i.e., the context.
“But they’re afraid to say no 1000% of the time if you’re rich and powerful”
Which is a weak comeback.
"In Extremis" is an extremely apt description. Shit is right at the precipice.
Haha ha read between the lines. This dude knows (((who))) is fucking everything up.
Yeah that jumped off the screen at me
History books used to be based. It used to be the thought of leeches one day writing the books was laughable. You can see this bizarre battle breaking out all over academia, in biology, psychology, Crusade history, political science, all these intellectual pursuits slowly swarmed by leeches always scheming in a united fashion for more influence and control while winning not a single point.
Now they are the church of academia.
The great minds languish in the shadows and dusty volumes of history.
That's ok, as long as you home school your kids in the classics, you will produce a person who stands atop all off human history and can set it right at will.
Very cool.
Is the line "it's a pleasure to be here" referring to TDW?
Looks like a FB post. Maybe on a FB group he likes?
I have never heard of this man, but he writes well
The unspoken words of “global desegregation”
Can't follow that. I spaced out halfway down. I'm too dumb.
You're not dumb, pede! You are smarter than you realize.
I don't take too much stock in IQ, at least not as a hard descriptor for intelligence, but I don't deny it's valuable when used to identify the cause of certain behaviors in certain groups.
It's also pretty incredible that most people are closer in intelligence to a monkey than to this guy. This is why we don't use the popular vote!
OP, do you have a link for this? I'd love to use it, but the lefties I'd drop it on would cry fake.
I wish I could write like that. Man shits out textbook-tier writing for a social media post
I read his explanation for the universe when I was in high school and it impressed me because it made sense and was easy to understand, but I had no context in physics or philosophy to evaluate it and I don't remember it well
Isn't it interesting how a lot of the actual smart people in the world seem to know what's really going on and they're often painted by the MSM and Politicians as being "far right"?
This Man is not a myth but a legend.
He's also a 4chan legend.
TIL the smartest man in the world today is a regular old Horse Rancher.
He worked as a bouncer for many years.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Langan
I saw this: Langan's support of conspiracy theories, including the 9/11 Truther movement (Langan has claimed that the George W. Bush administration staged the 9/11 attacks in order to distract the public from learning about the CTMU) and the white genocide conspiracy theory...
So, I had to check out the CTMU website: http://www.ctmu.org/ and then was compelled to read the whitepaper: The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe: A New Kind of Reality Theory
The sentences were waaaay too long, and many words gave me headaches. I think we need someone with a higher IQ than me to read this and summarize. The best I came up with is that they are using tautologies to control my mind. Since I'm blind to this control, I'm a well behaved puppet. I hope I read it wrong.
Edit: It's already been summarized: https://healthresearchfunding.org/christopher-langans-theory-explained/ We're locked in the Borg.
Sometimes it’s better to skip to the bottom line, in this case the final paragraph. It didn’t help me.
US is important because they steal all our taxpayer money. The US has so much wealth, and it's being stolen away. That's the ultimate crime taking place.
Still can’t believe we live in a world where not wanting your country flooded with third world migrants makes you “racist”.
I'm in his The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe group. Some really interesting conversations.
176 levels of woke!
His wiki also talks about how he's a 'crazy conspiracy theorist' lol like that phrase has any sting anymore.
> Smarted recorded IQ
> Langan
Laughs in Bog
Just went down a Christopher Langan rabbit hole. Definitely not my kind of guy to hang out with but I like his ideas. Went to his website and read a few of his abstracts about his theories of reality
Love this. Summed it all up in two succinct paragraphs.
Notice the rewrite of his wiki page
Damn.
WHO THE ACTUAL FUCK is Christopher Langan? I need to know. This man is my poetic muse.
Holy FUCK dude this guy is the best!
Trump says shit, and he gets that shit done. Everything else is immaterial. Yes, he may come across as narcissistic and as a buffoon at times, and he is without a doubt not the most eloquent president the US has had. But none of that matters. Do you want to get what you vote for or do you want ultimately meaningless feel-good? And who knows, perhaps Trump is in fact an idiot.
But that just means the rest of Washington is even dumber, because unless intelligence is a handicap in politics, there is little explanation on how he has consistently ran circles around the establishment.
I sure do!
Anyone who does not support Trump for any reason other than 'he's not far right enough' is low IQ by definition.
This man is brilliant, I was watching some of his YouTube videos about God. You should definitely check it out.
Shoutout to the MEGA foundation! So glad to finally see him here. One of the greatest inspirations for me personally as someone who "failed" the GATE pipeline.
I like that you mentioned the banks, it should be paramount in our minds that bankers are the cause and fount of most evil in the world.
Autodidacticism
All-Riggggghhhtt !!!!
BASED
This is epic.
Well said
First paragraph sums up the last 50+ years history of globalist bankster run American political machinations so succinctly. They made constant attrition against any who would oppose them. Whether a war of blood and bullets, or one of economic spell-craft, it was a grand design to dismantle the greatest country to exist in modern times.
I really hope Trump can somehow donkey-punch these comtard faggots into ever-loving orbit.
