Fraid so

It's in your heeeeeead in your heeeeeead zooombie zooombie

we've basically subjected ourselves to a lifetime of psychological torment with our intelligence

sad!

🙄

What we need is robot worms in our brains to reduce intelligence

@Death in June - That's not really the problem.

The issue is that some humans are smart, and others less so.

It's like having a chimp that figures out how to make firearms, and suddenly all the chimps are armed with AKs. Not a huge deal if it's just the smart ones walking around with guns. Problem is that guns usually end up in the hands of everyone.

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

the problem is that some niggers be smart others...not so much

The smart ones keep the dumb ones alive in environments that should be lethal.

even if you're smart you'll still have to live a life where you consistently have to act against your instincts, your nature, in order to survive

What's even the point mrite <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

Fuck you, June. I'll live in Antarctica if I damn well feel like it.

to acquire resources to construct fallout shelters so you can live the existence of a techno-hunter-gatherer-scavenger after world war 3 duh

see i would write that like "even if you're smart you'll still have to live a life where you consistently have to use your instincts, your nature, in order to survive"

I'd rather get a group of big-brains together and start terraforming the Earth.

Make it hyperhabitable, but in a way that can only be maintained if you're not a dumbass.

Wat even

Hyperintensive agriculture.

You can feed dozens of people per acre, but it takes careful management.

Stupid people will try to take over, sure, but they'll starve when they fuck it all up.

Haha so you dream of absolute control over the environment in the hands of benevolent and wise rulers

Absolute monarchy... In space

^

the future is absolute triarchy

No, I'm thinking about an Earth settlement where you take agricultural productivity to the absolute limit and then make that productivity a requirement for continued survival.

the trump, xinping, and putin dynasties

Smallhold farms.

monarchy is the best system

If you can't grow enough food to feed yourself, you fall into destitution.

It depends what goals you have in mind

I'm thinking of a farmer-worker society, where everyone grows their own food and then works 20 hours a week on some kind of job.

When thinking of other systems one should look from the perspective of the lesser castes. Always

...but population density would ensure that you CANNOT grow your own food if you're a dumbass, because you're not gonna have that much land.

You have to get super high productivity figures to maintain your own food supply, which means you have to know what you're doing.

People would spend 20 hours a week doing a normal job, and another 10-20 tending to their own lands.

i think the main problem every civilization faces to becoming space fairing is the multiple hazards presented such as ideological, Geo-political, environmental, cultural and political never mind the many hazards space presents

Not sure if scifi or noble savage

Society that spurns grocery stores, where food is mostly self-produced, and people are well educated so they don't have to work insane hours to make their income.

I notice most these fantasies rely on decent ppl being charge

Nah, this fantasy would involve letting people starve if they're too stupid to make their land grow food.

Then cutting off their hand if they steal to survive.

Huge chunk of the culture war is about human nature it seems

Sounds like a eugenics project with extra steps

I like it. <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

@PureEvilPie you look like you could cosplay as Bruno Bucciarati

Fuck your attempts at engineering this shit

You calling him a massive?

@svarozhyc - I personally like the idea.

Create a city that's paradise for the intelligent, and hell on earth for the stupid.

@svarozhyc Well, social engineering is pretty rephrehensible, whoever does it... but on the other hand, if you can guide things in one direction or another... which should it be?

To never take up the reins means letting someone else take them, it seems.

Yeye Zak "if only my side was the one" lol

I dunno.

It seems that's where people are going

Sometimes, nobody should have that power. And sometimes, somebody will have it either way, so you've gotta choose whomever will work out the best.

Put algebra problems on the doors of every grocery store.

If you can't solve a "y=mx+b" type problem then you can't open the door.

Can't open the door, can't buy food.

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

If you can't write a passable octave you should kys by now

quick way to start a war between the stupid and the not so stupid.

And if people aren't mathematically-inclined, but are good at something else...they starve?

<:thunk:462282216467333140>

And considering the co-dependent nature of everyone within society... everything will break down.

If you cannot solve a basic algebra problem, then the doors of the grocery store will not open.

Imagine not being able to compose music

Better to just aim for genetic engineering and wholesale improve general IQ.

Why even breathe at this point

someone said that the majority of muslims isn't radicalized

Cease

I wonder what they meant

Do they mean like, most of them are moderate?

Because that's dead fucking wrong

@svarozhyc - If we made music composition a mandatory class, taken every semester, then I would totally be on board with that. To get into any restaurant or grocery store you'd have to transcribe whatever notes were played over the speaker.

Preussens Gloria intensifies

@Blaster Master Most muslims are moderate, but the "moderate" muslim is not exactly what we imagine when we think moderate anything, tbqh.

That if you meet 100 Muslims less than 50% will attempt killing you?

They still gladly discriminate between you and them, tho.

In the ME, they do that shit a lot.

Who doesn't

The question is, what do you mean by "not radicalized"

The "moderate Muslim" doesn't want to set off a bomb in a gay club. They want the police to get off their asses and bust it up, stonewall style.

In the West, it seems like they do on one level or another.

wow moderate muslims sound based

By the "not wanting to kill gays/discriminate them" category, dead fucking wrong

I prefer a "live and let live" attitude until the gays start trying to turn kids into gays and protect pædo's.

The common term for "slave" and "black" in Saudi Arabia are the same.

Yep.

I live in a majority islamic country, which is considered moderate

which one

Azerbaijan

A lot of Middle-Eastern cultures don't differentiate.

The terms for "slave" and "black" are the same fucking word.

And even here, homosexuality is a strong taboo, you can get beaten

that's true of many places in america

So I signed up for this plot of land with this terraformer ... at first he seemed like a Benevolent overlord, saying the smart people and only the smart people could and would maintain the system or we all die ... then when we moved there, he was like "fuck you dumbasses" and we all died 😦

especially the places with lots of black people

Yeah but here it's religiously motivated

@Blaster Master Any enlightenment to share with us?

Does Azerbaijani throw gays off the roofs and stone women out of hand by following Sharia law?

@juts kill nme - Sounds like you were in the wrong group, then.

The smart group survived just fine.

@Death in June - In my experience, even extremely conservative whites won't attack someone for being gay. That's more inner city black territory, and even then it's usually gang-banger types who are Christian in name only.

@Zakhan No, women don't get stoned. Sharia law is not official. My point was, even though they're not terrorist, you can't call them moderates, they still discriminate and are willing to use violence

nah you moved the goalposts you bastard!
