The video is retarded and it takes 5 seconds of thinking to understand why. White nationalists want to preserve the character of the nation because they are delusional racists, while Israeli jewish nationalists seek to preserve the character of the nation because there is a genuine threat that once arabs gain democratic power they would instantly be removed from their nation. And those are clips that are like years apart. Positions change, even though there is nothing inconsistent about holding these positions.

It's called Nabraska Steve, he comes out every now and then.

Well you'd have it running the whole time, that's what they use in Ukraine. They are heavy to carry and can compromise your location though, and you have to jam all the signal frequencies.

Electronic jamming.

Oh yes, AI will turn humans into superhumans, just like the internet did!

Mushrooms make me sleepy and calm, I'd say what you describe I only get with LSD.

At least he didn't shoot up his school.

No, this is from Trump's platform "Truth Social".

It's not insane because it's not what happened. His eardrum didn't bust, he ear was literally hit. He didn't fall on his knees to worship the Lord either.

Destiny going unhinged, joked about the civilians getting killed.

But we have argued for decades that if Hitler were about to take power, that we should kill him and so forth. All the baby Hitler hypotheticals, for what?

So basically a political assassination is reasonable and justified in this case given that it is guaranteed that you will live under fascist rule if Trump takes office, which he is likely to take. So at this point you might as well encourage further assassination plots given the situation, no?

That's not guaranteed. However, if he had been killed, the Trump voters could have gone completely unhinged. That could have put you down a trajectory from which it would be near impossible to recover from.

In this case, the only thing worse than succeeding in the assassination attempt might have been failing at the assassination attempt. I don't know if something could have happened to give Trump more political advantage. Although, the politics aside, I think people are failing to see the deeper issue here. No matter who wins the presidency, your country is fucked on a far deeper level than that. There is a huge portion of actually radicalized individuals in your country and you have no mechanisms through which to reduce the rate at which division and radicalization occurs. In fact, you have the most powerful technologies invented in the history of mankind designed to maximize division, hatred and irrationality. As I said, what is occuring here is worse than the threat of climate change, because this issue makes the resolving of any complex problem mankind faces, like climate change, impossible. Everything gets politicized, and there is no solution even in sight. It is getting worse and worse and you are doing nothing about it instead of playing into the rat race of who wins the presidency. At this point, that doesn't even matter, you are on a terrible trajectory irrespective of who wins.

So if the crocodile did need to rape children to survive, self-love would mean raping children, because how can you not accept yourself as the child-raping-crocodile? Also I don't see how survival is related to acceptance. Do you not accept things that aren't necessary for survival? It is in everyones nature to do things that are not necessary for survival. Are you rejecting what you are? A child rapist predator? Oh god, I just realized you are an identity-dysmorphia-dysmorphian! Considering identity-dysmorphia is an integral part of human nature, you are rejecting it and therefore not accepting it, meaning you cannot even love yourself! You must rid yourselves of identity-dysmorphia-dysmorphia if you really want to know what love is.

Guys didn't you know? Humans have sadistic tendencies. Look at all these anti-torture-for-pleasure identity dysmorphians! I love myself so much that I torture infants for breakfast, can you love yourself as much as I can? (this is a joke, if not obvious)

You can make the same argument for rape, or murder. Anti-rape and anti-murder are social constructs that contradict your human nature and it's expressions. This is the dumbest thread I have seen on the forum in a long time, lol. Rape and murder with gratitude everyone, you heard it here first. Accept what you are, because you are not a human being given the capacity for reason, self improvement and empathy. No, your base desires like wanting to have sex when you want to have sex are far more important and must be accepted. Not only must they accepted as desired, they indeed must be acted upon so that you can love yourself.

Obviously. The question is whether or not Joe Biden is the right candidate to beat Trump.

I change my mind, I think the risk of Biden degrading over the next few months cognitively, given how rapidly it can occur, is way too high to take. They should change the candidate now even if it is a risky move.

Yep, but in those cases I also am not a particular fan of the fit-look. What is unattractive to me is mostly what is communicated through this type of signalling. It tells me about the mind of the person and their values. Obviously this is not universally the case, but in general it's a negative signal to me.

It literally does come from a vacuum. Reality manifests it's infinite expressions through extracting it from nothingness (which is pure infinity). This is the only way you can explain higher complexity and novel information generation as demonstrated by evolution and the human mind. Now, novel information is of course necessarily contextualized within the given system in which it expresses itself. Given a physical system, any form of complexity naturally will be physical. But that does not mean that novel information was not created. Each limited set of existence contains a near infinite amount of possible configurations. How to arrive at particular complexities is achieved through interfacing with nothingness through free will. To ask something like "Can you create something truly outside of this world?" would be like asking if you can find a physical expression which is not physical. The question makes no sense and demonstrates a misunderstanding of the nature of infinity and creation.

When I see gym-bros I usually just see insecurity, it's becoming pretty unattractive to me in general.

I don't get the appeal at all. The only interesting thing about a relationship fundamentally is the presence of another mind and experiencer, that's what you connect with, not merely the behaviors an individual displays. If AI did have consciousness, I wouldn't have a problem with the idea of having a romantic relationship with such an individual. However, in that case we'd have issues of slavery and so forth. It would be unethical to create an individual that is created for the purpose of pleasing you.

The primary reason why you are suffering is most likely not because of the lack of female companionship, but simply because you perceive yourself as having failed to meet societal standards. You view yourself as a failure, as unworthy, as unlovable. That is the fundamental issue. If you were stranded on an island, with the rest of the world destroyed in nuclear fallout, and all you had was a group of men to keep you company, you might experience less psychological torment than you are right now, because whether or not you have a woman would no longer matter in whether or not you perceive yourself as a failure. You could adapt and live out the life the best you could on an island like this. Not having a woman would be frustrating, but if it was a universally shared experience, it would not cause you the same psychological anguish as it relates to your self-identity, what you consider to be the worth you have as a human being. What you must realize is that you have fallen prey to a perverse game. You have bound your self-love to the contemporary societal values and norms. In other words, you have bound yourself to a society that has not yet transcended the dark-ages, a depraved, sick, undeveloped and blind society. This society will not give you unconditional love, because everyone is starving and scrambling for every bit of love they can get. People are so lacking that nobody can freely share it, lest they would carry the burden of everyone else. In such a scenario, the solution is not to attempt to find your piece of love, to play the game as everyone else is playing it, destined to succeed for some and fail for others. The solution is to become a beacon of love yourself. To become the one who gives love, not who takes it. Suicide is silly in this case, because all of this is in your head. And you are far from the only one, there are countless lost souls who are seeping through the gaping cracks in society. You could become someone who can find joy in eleviating their suffering, and to bring true love to them. To not give them love, but to teach them how to become beacons themselves. Next time you see an overweight, ugly woman, think of how much she must suffer, and how much her condition is because the society we live in today. Think about how different her life could be, including her health, if our societal had a more sophisticated relationship between self-love and societal norms. You have been been raised on ignorance, and so has she.
