This also goes beyond law as well, the "intelligent leaders" will persuade the followers to behave "morally" as well; respect, manners, helping others, honesty, .......

It is rational, take Dostoyevsky's murder story for example; You get away with murder, but a woman is murdered, that has wider repercussions, it instills fear in others, which say manifests to distrust for others and fear in general to do things; is a world of scared untrusting people better for you individually compared to a relaxed world of trust? For the masses we have laws and punishments, no different than religion effectively, the masses "fear God" in your theory(they don't actually in reality), in our theory they fear legal recourse. In your theory the Clergy "Interpret" God's word, meaning they create the law, In my theory the most persuasive 'leader' leads and creates the law. In my theory the leader or collective leaders in a Republic, should usually be relatively very intelligent, because..... to become the leader of the group usually takes intelligence relative to the group. In your theory Clergy are chosen by what? The pope is chosen by a smoke signal.

I don't mean everyone realizes it on their own, most never do, only a few through history have; Moses, King Solomon, Buddha, Socrates, Aurelias, Khant, Locke, Ghandi, Mandela. You have felt the connection, it's perfectly inline with intuition.

I disagree, morality is from seeing how even on an individual level one benefits from the greater good for all, and suffers individually if the greater good is neglected.

To be fair to the OP he is Indian. Christopher Columbus has a day named after him and he couldn't tell the difference between America and India.

Don't let the virtue signalling of conservatives fool you.

Yeah if you want to slander the left and prop up the right, conflating is very useful for that I agree. "To be fair, even though I agree here, I think it's specifically the extreme left that starts it, and then the alt right of that era maintains and finishes it." Who finished WWII, the left or right "of that era"?

You can't reinforce an inflammatory statement like the left creates the wars and the right finishes them and then just walk away.

But who finished the war, left or right? Obviously people could argue forever as to who started it.

My emphasis is on how you said the alt right finishes it. Obviously people could argue forever as to who started it.

Wouldn't the alt right have been the nazis? WWII.

I only mean in terms of emotional/spiritual compatibility. No, 50% of men couldn't spend the rest of their life happy with anyone let alone a whole 80 percentile of women. Citations; My Ass, Devin, 2023

No, I mean your claim is effectively the west is espousing democracy therefore Russia must suppress with violence. I think the difference from our perspectives is from how the west has used military in the past, I don't group everything the west does as 'left', iraq, vietnam, ..... those were rightwing reasons even though done in the name of democracy they were actually for resources.

'They created this by changing the status quo', that is a liberal use of the term created in terms of war. That's the same as saying the slave that spoke up caused the beatings. Their previous use of military hasn't threatened Russia and was right wing use, is palestine and israel conflict left or right? Iraq, vietnam, were for resources not democracy. Only in name has military offense been for democracy, in actuality it was for right wing reasons.

Online dating or social circle dating? If you meet girls in social circles it's like shooting fish in a barrell, pickup and online dating are inherently working against any man, it is pickiness in a sense but only due to those variables.

What did they do to Russia so far though, to cause this? Provoke, yes, not create, they provoked by supporting democracy and shunning oppression, like scaring a bully by being nice and liked by others.

Take 80% of women in the dating pool, they all have enough "emotional/spiritual" compatibility for 95% of men. The red flag is narcissism or stupidity, not emotional/spiritual compatibility. In terms of divorce though a woman needs that compatibility, sure the couple needs compatibility, because the woman needs it. I was just stating male needs.

I strongly suggest 'Men are from Mars Women are from Venus', you're looking at men like they're women, Men truly are as simple as they seem, they do not need emotional or spiritual compatibility, some do but it's like 0.5%.

I again think you're extrapolating too much, a woman admitting she selects men largely based on social status is not a red flag, if she's a disloyal narcissist those are red flags, but if she's loyal and compassionate and admits that's a huge factor for her then it's a green flag, it show's she's upfront honest and understands herself. She won't admit it due to neo-feminism though. A woman choosing by status or a man choosing by looks does not mean they will leave should that attribute be lost, loyalty is completely separate from these mate selectors. You're looking at caricatures; the gold digger and playboy, those are the minority, and easily recognized by narcissism, dishonesty, and manipulation.

Great topic by the way.

Biggest disadvantage to being a woman would be the expected submissiveness. Advantage; everyone willing to help you with anything, not having to worry about being on your own.

Okay. The 95% I just meant still care about the woman, even though they chose by looks, yeah most aren't very mature.

I think you're too hyper focussed on one element, if he's only focused on looks and a douche bag narcissist yeah of course, but if he admittedly cares about looks 95% of those guys will still care about the woman I promise.

I agree they're focussed on looks, I'm only disagreeing that they require that maintained to the same level after marriage and children.

@StarStruck Does a woman need to maintain 10ness after you're married and having children?
