@Schizophonia @Sugarcoat No, technically you're right this place is an energy source. Iat least feel energetic when posting and reading through threads here. Sometimes I find funny posts.

@Someone here Coming from a different perspective on the whole PUA thing, the number rating is used, from how some PUA guys I talked to, to measure and approximate the beauty of your date. However, the mistake is in making it some serious scientific metric LOL. It's fine to loosely rate a person's beauty initially but ditch it and apply other techniques and principles. If pressed to rate her, it's negative 10/10, she's that beautiful it's making me jealous and insecure. And she's from Egypt? Not many people have such terrifying beauty like that there.

@Sir Oberon Agree too, the devil is in metoo.

@Sir Oberon More like the devil if you ask me.

@Hardkill I agree, we're in more times of uncertainty, with the Meta crisis going around us, potential threat of nuclear warfare, bio weapons being used, A.I technology and drone attatcks,misues of C.R.I.S.P.R tech that could result in more dangerous viruses. One thing to worry in particular with the Israel and Palestinian conflict, is escalating to regional war,ehich will involve Iran, which will effect the oil production and distribution, making oil more expensive. This will have global knock on effects onto countries that needs that oil. This is probably the one to look out for. China invading Taiwan is likely after the Chinese assesses how the USA handles the Ukraine/Russia conflict and the Israel/Palestinian conflict, if USA handles too poor or passively, the USA gets bogged down on those conflicts and other global situations, China might time that to invade Taiwan. In fact according to John Mearsheimer the greater worryis conflict in the eastern Islands of the south asian sea, instead of Taiwan.

@jimwell GOD and the devil are two sides of the same coin.

@DocWatts I can agree on the insane work hours and toxic work culture in south Korea, Japan and in China. For example, not in S.T.E.M related jobs, but more creative art jobs like illustration and comics, manga made by Mangakas in Japan, manhua made in both South Korea and China, that industry does often have long hours of work to produce drawing. Even in China and maybe South Korea and Japan there's this 9-9-6 word style, work from 9 am to 9 pm, which is 12 working hours,6 days a week. I'm not too familiar of social supports and assistence with raising of family. Your anecdote does make intuitive sense, in that you are financially more secure to raise a bigger family, because you have the money security to cover your children's future going forwards, although in reality the average families made are a mix between middle to lower class, and sometimes upper class. I have always felt that it'll be a culture warfare first then other developmental factors at societal levels second. Changing culture is hard work as that's the cultural identity the nation/country/state identifies with collectively. That's like if Cosmic Skeptic, or Alex O'Connor, argues for the dissolving of the Monarchy, well he must also be prepared to argue, worldwide, across all cultures with patriarchies and more conservative/traditional stage blue valued frameworks to also get rid of their national icons and dissolve any archaic symbols of their culture. IMO that's the quickest way to getting crucified or stoned to death, plus he's just being a philosopher, he won't be at the front lines risking his life to change the culture for the better.

@PurpleTree Seriously they're a decent podcast with an alternative view of western and eastern politics.

@Breakingthewall *Nordic mythology, *Valhalla, *Valkyries.

@PurpleTree Dude, the Duran podcast doesn't suck, they offer decent interviews of philosophers and other intellectual people that have an alternative take which western media don't like hearing, that's all. For example they have on John Mearsheimer, a realist foreign relations expert, who says it bluntly: Ukraine is the west's fault, and provided a solid argument for why that is, which the west don't like.

This a another interesting podcast, interviewing Sam Harris. I feel like there were moments they caught Sam Harris on a bind, as sometimes Harris fumbles with his words: Regardless of some gotcha moments, Sam Harris is right on his takes about trupism and the Covid-19 response, even if those podcasters don't agree, they're allowed to not agree, just don't project you're anti mainstream nonsense then. Oh wait...

@Juan I know enough, given how much you keep pestering me in the forum, trying to troll and derail.

@Juan Anything to justify your single status and tinder dating Juan. Also, to clarify to those reading and interested, this is my position and argument simplified: Lower birthrates in Japan and around the western world caused by Feminism, egalitarianism, and neoliberalism run amok, plus moral degradation of the family unit due to socialism and progressivism of the online world and too much sexual liberation. My offer is limited democracies, and an internet government for god's sake, and a return to more conservative values, norms, and back to patriarchy and some form of Republicanism. Bring back some normalcy, human decency and commonsense and commonplace in the world.

@An young being How does technologies that rapidly replace human labor jobs(AKA automation and A.I enhanced automation) solve for economic growth problems? How is this an argument for solving the growing economic problems, when the majority are caused by feminism, egalitarianism, and neoliberalism/capitalism run amok, not just in Japan but in the majority of the westernized countries? Take South Korea for example, already westernized by America, yet it too is also facing lower birthrates due to higher divorces, feminism, egalitarianism and neoliberalism run amok, meanwhile to the North a totalitarianism based regime, North Korea, have higher birthrates meeting it's threshold replacement rates for it's society, which can easily replace manpower and soldier units for it's own military? How does your A.I tech and genes solution solve for South Korea's lowering birthrates? By increasing automation and A.I enhanced automation, you increase unemployment rates due to employers not needing human resources for labor jobs, especially men, which increases unemployment rates and homelessness rates. IQ distribution is a real metric as a lot of those labor roles are filled by people with lower IQ ranges, so when you implement your solution, you'll also be increasing labor shortages and job sector shortages that require those labor jobs by lower IQ ranged people, plus those lower IQ ranged people cannot climb the corporate ladder or do those knowledge based intensive jobs like S.T.E.M related jobs or office worker jobs or even IT tech jobs. Due to this oversight of yours you'll also have to account for training and educating those with lower IQ ranges, whilst housing them somehow in the meantime. This and many other developmental factors involved makes your solution tricky to implement without causing other problems, and even contributing to the birthrate problems as well. Also, I only brought up 3d A.I enhanced pornography, not murdering and stealing humans, you made that claim. The reason why I brought up A.I enhanced pornography is that due to the sexual liberation movement, Feminism, egalitarianism, western democracy, multiculturalism, and neoliberalism, the dating and sex market will adopt your A.I solution and actually worsen the birthrates because it discourages men from pursuing long term relationships and increase the single life and individualism per men/women, which worsens the issue with birthrates in first world democracies, so in a twisted sense your solution also partly adds to the birthrate crisis as people will become more sexualized and perverted by 3d enhanced A.I pornography, because the hyper stimuli and novel seeking and dopamine chasing of the brains of young men and women will cause them to develop negative self image issues, increases in narcissism, neuroticism, sociopathy and psychopathic traits due to social media platforms and sites that prey on the minds of the consumers, to arrest and prolong their exposure to contents hyper curated by algorithms to feed and take as much of that user's time, energy and attention span for more clicks and views and scroll time. Addressing the third world countries, your A.I solution might be far worse for these countries, because again your A.I enhanced automation will disturb the employment to unemployment rates for these third world countries as these countries rely even more on labor intensive jobs to feed themselves and their families. Again this seems like it's traced back to neoliberalism, egalitarianism and feminism viewing these third world countries in this modernist, secularist, materialist, hyper individualist way from America. It may be part of predatory capitalism run amok as well. I would propose smaller democracies even there, with smaller governments geared more to capitalism pursuit, with which America doesn't regulate as much, and even China/Russia's economic interest should be limited as well, to allow those third world countries to sort themselves out. Eventually the patriarchy in those third world countries will reorder itself for it's own survival, which then corrects the excess of birthrates there. Last thing to do is to encourage these third world countries to allow their citizens to leave and migrate away from their developing countries to pursue a multiculturalism and egalitarianism from America which is faulty at best, deceptive at worst.

@DocWatts Thanks for your additional points. Yes a sudden drop in birth rates, say within 20 years, can create imbalances in age distribution in societies. I do think part of this problem comes from Neoliberalism, egalitarianism and feminism run amok. We actually need smaller, more limited democracies at this point if we can't replenish our numbers in the future.

@PurpleTree This video as well, which shows the Apollo 11 crew giving a conference post moon landing: Her body language analysis of part of that conference: Now compare and contrast their public presentation in this pre conference before their flight to the moon: I don't disagree with her body language analysis of the Apollo 11 crew's conference, but I do disagree with why and her conclusion of her analysis simply being that these men are experiencing just stage fright. Remember they were generally more happier and excited preflight. Now they're not that happy, and even stressed and closed post flight. I don't think it's just stage fright as that's unlikely because they had some experience talking to crowds of people beforehand. Which opens up the question of what they had seen on that moon for them to go from excited to distressed afterwards?

@PurpleTree Probably are such forces that exist. Reminds me of these videos here:

@jimwell I don't think this is a realistic stance to view A.I technology. It's still too early to celebrate, and quite frankly A.I technology is just one of many possible solutions to solving systemic issues in society, and addressing problem spaces that have multifaceted origins in other developmental factors and fields of life and society, values systems, cognitive biases and moral frameworks, personality types/traits and psychological developments, ideological beliefs indoctrinated by culture, family upbringing, environment, mainstream/alternative media sources, tv programs, advertising, news paper, radio, social media sites with algorithms and A.I that hyper curate content to user biases creating echo chambers of ideology, addictive digital formats that prey on attention span which decreases attention spans leading to ADD/ADHD increase as well as higher narcissism, sociopathy and psychopathy mindsets towards other people and worlds, which all creates and maintains rivalrous relationships with people and the world.

@Ninja_pig I partly agree that Japan may be an outlier of lowest birthrates even /=/ destabilizing economy, although in this case we'll need to know more about how the westernized economy within Japan is handled and done versus Russia's economy, or the USA's capitalistic economy is handled, basically how one culture and economy in comparison/contrast to another culture's handling. While I still think feminism and egalitarianism, and neoliberalism brought over by America and the west has westernized Japan, again not by choice(look at the history of WW2 and the Pacific war, and how Japan had to unconditionally surrender to America or face existential annihilation by nuclear bombs, that America chose to use because the military estimated there would be a huge loss of life if they proceeded with traditional invasions into Japan), I'll agree partly that the wealth inequality and limitations of capitalism and neoliberalism as individualism increases will also play a factor in Japan's increasing homelessness problem, but also it's lowering birth rates as women become more westernized and are careers orientated and more individualistic. I also agree that A.I programs and technologies are not the only solutions to this situation, and expecting this tech to help all of humanity is foolish thinking, it's all a grotesque theoretical fantasy to think that what the big tech companies will do is going to improve any of our social systemic issues, because they are not careful to consider other developmental factors negatively effected.

Good bye 2 days worth of posts I made. I will miss you deeply.

@Vrubel Really? I thought the Egyptian government sent intel over to Israel about this HAMAs attack? So why didn't Israel at least give light security to the party goers? And why even have a party that close to the border?

@lina You're welcome! It's sad to lose 2 days worth of posts, I've had some good back and forth arguments in other threads and some here, but nevertheless we have to sally forth.

The derailment of this thread in a nutshell:

@Vrubel Would you agree that partying on the border of Gaza, without security, was a bad idea?

@lina The reason why a lot of posts are missing is because of some data crash this site had, which resulted to 2 days loss of data. @Leo Gura made a thread explaining the issue in the personal development forum.
