. dr k has a lot of good wisdom though i've learned a lot. prob just take what you like and discard what you dont imo.

It's both imo, you go for the mass appeal (in my perspective (money+looks+game) because most girls like this. And then you niche down with your own unique flair and pick the girls that you like If you don't got the former you can barely even do the latter

I agree. But in my experience human connection alone doesnt get you far. You will get a near 0 connections on dating apps (💀) and girls won't look at you It's almost impossible just to rely on human connection alone. I think red pill has a lot of truth as well, maxing that stuff really does give you way more opportunity

There is a lot of truth to that. Human connection can transcend a lot of those preconceived notions that we have

at the very least this does poke a hole in the "preferences" argument? certain guys get extraordinary results on dating apps

@Emerald how come in dating apps, the men you describe only see tumbleweed

Well in terms of confidence, assertiveness, ambition. I found a lot of these traits can be quite learnable ime, no? Or did u mean smth else

@r0ckyreed where did you come from? Was it a rural or suburb area? I think that when you jump areas your algorithm refreshes temporarily and it shows up on people's feeds more often

So the 5'4 skinny no clout minimum wage softbois are the real alphas. Damn what am I doing i think the pov of a conventionally unmasculine guy is missing here. A lot of guys go into that stuff bc they dont get girls. Now ppl are saying that is enough to get girls

College courses have a lot of strong eye opening fundamentals

@zazen it definitely could be partially merit based versus being race based. But for some studies like for guaging differences in callback rates with similar variables (like same resume, same companies, similar application timing with only the name changed), it seems pretty clear (like the previous study i linked) Another one like this: "The ethnic name groups were less likely to receive follow up questions or invitations to meet as compared to the white name group." https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/104583246 Knowledge is "woke" lol.

I addressed most of your points with what I said in that comment I copy pasted. You completely evaded it and went on a tangent

Did you read this @SwiftQuill? It addresses most of your latest comment

@SwiftQuill seems you did not read my previous comment

@SwiftQuill yes I apologize if my initial points were offensive, I was trolling in the beginning, I do gotta chill on that sometimes. Though i do find it silly that you talk about bad faith when your entire ideology is a cartoon misrepresentation of liberalism lol. I dont sense open-mindedness or good faith from you

@PurpleTree if you read my latest post, it was significantly less ideological than the other dude. He was extremely ideological, emotional and lacking knowledge

You could have white & male privelege, and also be developmentally & socieconomically unpriveleged, which leads you to work in mcdonalds White privelege in the job market specifically would be like: Like less barriers in top levels in companies, more likely to get a call back due to your name, people will assume you are a 'cultural fit' much more easily, better access to networks of white people (due to in-group preferences). That being said, being white won't get you to the top automatically, but there are subtle priveleges that you do get. If you work at mcd while older, there is socieconomic and maybe IQ/developmental challenges at play. The privelege isnt white = automatically rich lol. That is way too reductive Applies to men, and straight ppl too Im not criticizing you tbh, just pointing out some blindspots

@SwiftQuill Ignoring data is a huge mistake. They're not perfect, but they include a lot of valuable info At the end of the day, you need data for your "white males are the real ones oppressed". Is your data for this claim even higher quality than what comes from scientific studies? Id recommend that you steelman science and have a high quality opinion of it instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Your opinion leans way more emotional than truth and quality based

@SwiftQuill You never responded to my comment from before, that showed 25% of top companies discriminate against black people with statistical significance Whats your thoughts on that, and how much action should be taken on that, if any? I noticed you quite passionate about being anti-dei, because of discrimination. I wonder if it stops there however, when it's non white people affected? My 2nd question is, if your pursuit to destroy wokeness is wise, considering battling racism is not on the right wings agenda? If there is no left wing, and right wings purpose is to destroy the left... coupled with the fact of little to no concern for racism on the right -> do you think racism gets better or worse?

I get you bro fr. Did you see this study?: https://bfi.uchicago.edu/working-paper/systemic-discrimination-among-large-u-s-employers/ "Contact gaps are highly concentrated in particular companies, with firms in the top quintile of racial discrimination responsible for nearly half of lost contacts to Black applicants in the experiment. Controlling false discovery rates to the 5% level, 23 [of the largest 108 companies] individual companies are found to discriminate against Black applicants. Our findings establish that systemic illegal discrimination is concentrated among a select set of large employers, many of which can be identified with high confidence using large scale inference methods." did you see this shit?? are you ready to fight with me?! are we still on the same page?? no? not anymore??

@SwiftQuill a lot of right wing parties around the world are gleaning from trumps playbook because it was shown to work here, that's why I mentioned trump

when you gauge the success of their policies in your country over the next few years make sure to use very high quality external sources. if they are like trump, they will say they are "winning" regardless of how bad they are doing, so be careful of getting the data from the party themselves, it will be very biased.

Isnt this better correlated with more conservative cultures, in general? I'm sure there are better explanations for women covering up than it being due to having more rapists

I agree with aurum here. You might have to gently nudge them in the right direction. Like bring up a small contemplative question and see how they respond It seems more of a emotional & social approach

Scotthyoung has a lot of techniques on learning languages. he teaches a lot on the meta of learning how to learn but has good info on language learning specifically as well
