you obviously haven't gone to church

2019-02-04 02:36:10 UTC

so morality has changed?

2019-02-04 02:36:19 UTC

Why do you think you believe we are better today than back then?

2019-02-04 02:36:34 UTC

because we have changed our attitudes and laws

2019-02-04 02:36:38 UTC

but @Fitzydog , le noble savage

2019-02-04 02:36:38 UTC

Evolving =/= Changing

2019-02-04 02:36:41 UTC

No, not that

2019-02-04 02:37:31 UTC

You know we are better today than back then, because we are closer to the moral standard that we consider to be 'superior'

2019-02-04 02:37:54 UTC

Thus, there's a morally superior position

2019-02-04 02:38:24 UTC

Although, the last 90 years has been a reversal imo

2019-02-04 02:38:51 UTC

Isn't that they key term **that we consider**

2019-02-04 02:39:23 UTC

You mean all society? The agreed upon superior position?

2019-02-04 02:39:43 UTC

Why do third world countries aspire to be like us?

2019-02-04 02:39:44 UTC

I have the perfect example on why the EU centralisation don't work. They did make new directive for snow removal, it says that no snow removal vehicle cant drive faster the 40kmh, that works fine where it snows ones per 10 year. but as Norway is part of the EEA deal we are forced to follow it as well and the end result was that several villages are getting isolated from roads closing as the new snow removal rules don't allow for effective snow removal any more

2019-02-04 02:39:45 UTC

What about other cultures such as the Japanese or Korean? They believe that they have achieved the closest to their superior morals

2019-02-04 02:39:59 UTC

I would agree with them

2019-02-04 02:40:08 UTC

So far, they're on track for the best

2019-02-04 02:40:29 UTC

japan have so little crime you don't need to lock you bike

2019-02-04 02:40:36 UTC

so then there isn't a universal morality, just different ones interpreted differently by each culture

2019-02-04 02:40:51 UTC

Are you just ignoring what I'm saying?

2019-02-04 02:41:05 UTC

And they are right. They have achieved it. Why do you think they have low crimes and are super against illegal immigration?

2019-02-04 02:41:16 UTC

You would love to live under Japan's society

2019-02-04 02:41:17 UTC

You're saying that there is the one objective universal superior morality which we all aspire to reach

2019-02-04 02:41:23 UTC

Yes

2019-02-04 02:41:29 UTC

Yes ofc

2019-02-04 02:41:30 UTC

Which I disagree with

2019-02-04 02:41:41 UTC

Freedom and fairness for all

2019-02-04 02:41:44 UTC

Wouldn't you love to live in Japan?

2019-02-04 02:41:57 UTC

I don't have much to say on living in Japan

2019-02-04 02:42:04 UTC

Oh come on

2019-02-04 02:42:14 UTC

they don't want the soy

2019-02-04 02:42:16 UTC

Safety, societal trust, equality

Japan isn't a county of equality, it's a country that offers all equal starting positions, whether you reach them isn't up to the state rather up to yourself. Japan is also a country notorious for having different cultural norms to those of the west, where we favour more family they favour more work and social standing.

2019-02-04 02:44:11 UTC

Yeah, that's equality

2019-02-04 02:44:47 UTC

They don't like Equality of Outcome for a reason lol

2019-02-04 02:44:51 UTC

the term equality which people, often on the far left, tend to fling around revolves more on equality of outcome, not of start

2019-02-04 02:45:05 UTC

No, that's equity

2019-02-04 02:45:15 UTC

Which is immoral

2019-02-04 02:46:10 UTC

Equality is also largely present in western culture, however not to the level of which Japan is at

2019-02-04 02:46:23 UTC

It should be more present lol

2019-02-04 02:46:32 UTC

That's not even the topic of discussion

2019-02-04 02:47:26 UTC

Hell, even the basis behind progressive politics implies theres a universal ethic, else what else would you be aspiring towards?

2019-02-04 02:48:28 UTC

Closing the gaps between private and public schooling

2019-02-04 02:48:29 UTC

we have almost perfect equality between genders in Norway and we did see something funny happen. both sexes did choose jobs that was extremely gender stereotypes like females becoming nurses and men mechanics

2019-02-04 02:48:52 UTC

How unexpected

2019-02-04 02:49:04 UTC

Wow nature does the work itself...

2019-02-04 02:49:13 UTC

Wth does private schooling have to do with this?

2019-02-04 02:49:20 UTC

equality

2019-02-04 02:49:28 UTC

Same starting chances for people

2019-02-04 02:49:38 UTC
2019-02-04 02:49:42 UTC

Are you saying there wasn't 50/50 representation on all professions?

2019-02-04 02:49:53 UTC

You cannot possibly say that someone who attends a public school and a private one are at the same playing field

2019-02-04 02:50:00 UTC

That's not equality, that's centralized authority impsoing equity

2019-02-04 02:50:10 UTC

Must have been internalised misogyny

2019-02-04 02:50:26 UTC

you will never get that. as even your teacher can make a huge difference on the outcome

2019-02-04 02:50:34 UTC

Equality under the law is all that matters

2019-02-04 02:50:52 UTC

That is why we need a school voucher system

2019-02-04 02:51:05 UTC

not equity, equality. Why someone who cannot afford to go to private, has to be stuck in an underfunded and overcrowded public school which will close options only available to private schools. Whatever the student does is up to them, but at least have them have equal starting chances

2019-02-04 02:51:10 UTC

This proves my point that Europeans don't know how to Liberalize

2019-02-04 02:51:35 UTC

That's because Europeans aren't liberal

2019-02-04 02:51:44 UTC

They're bismarkian statists

2019-02-04 02:52:32 UTC

if you think your schools is overcrowded now why you want a billion new kids from Africa in to them as well?

2019-02-04 02:53:11 UTC

I never once said I favoured illegal immigration, don't know where you're getting this from

2019-02-04 02:53:12 UTC

No, they want your oil money @Nordhand

2019-02-04 02:53:25 UTC

And I quote, "fuck walls"

2019-02-04 02:53:33 UTC

Walls don't work

2019-02-04 02:53:35 UTC

yes

2019-02-04 02:53:41 UTC

doesn't mean I want illegals

2019-02-04 02:53:49 UTC

Walls work. They slow people down

2019-02-04 02:53:55 UTC

Fucking tard

2019-02-04 02:54:04 UTC

fuck off. they are already getting to much of it as it is. they can make their own money if they want to waste it on stupid shit

2019-02-04 02:54:15 UTC

I guess the military doesn't need Hesco barriers anymore @galesteppes

2019-02-04 02:54:25 UTC

Walls are effective but not on their own.

2019-02-04 02:54:38 UTC

wAlLs dOnT wOrK

2019-02-04 02:54:52 UTC

Bombs don't kill everyone, should we get rid of those as well?

2019-02-04 02:55:00 UTC

I will call the Norwegian military so we can dismantle the NATO border walls between Norway and Russia then

2019-02-04 02:55:00 UTC

I guess

2019-02-04 02:55:16 UTC

if it's not 100% effective, we need to yeet that shit

2019-02-04 02:55:50 UTC

But I guess it's easy to say walls don't work when your country would be 2000km from the front lines @Nordhand

2019-02-04 02:57:51 UTC

I'm guessing so. not like the Russian have been close to invade Norway in the past. like when they did put northern soviet army at the border guns pointing at the guards only tanks only meters from the border line

2019-02-04 02:57:56 UTC

Walls don't work, they simply postpone the problem. Say you build a wall, yes, in the first years illegal crossing will radically drop. But people aren't stupid, if there's money to be made people will find a way. Immigrants will begin to use alternatives, go by sea, under the wall, over the wall (either jumping it, or simply by flying in). Remember that more than half of illegal immigration is overstayed visas.... Walls don't work, they're a temporary solution to a long term/permanent problem

2019-02-04 02:58:16 UTC

Yeah, the other half is agents

2019-02-04 02:58:19 UTC

and cameras

2019-02-04 02:58:23 UTC

and bullets

2019-02-04 02:58:40 UTC

When the criminals adapt the good guys also adapt so what's your point?

2019-02-04 02:58:45 UTC

walls is to buy time between detection and interception

2019-02-04 02:58:53 UTC

@Nordhand THISSSAS

2019-02-04 02:58:56 UTC

@Nordhand same thing with mine fields

2019-02-04 02:59:02 UTC

So your solution is to build a massive dome over the US and underground eventually

2019-02-04 02:59:08 UTC

The thing is not everyone is going to want to go the extra mile to bypass a wall. Adding extra barriers will increase the incentive *not* to come

2019-02-04 02:59:19 UTC

Should companies stop making anti viruses just because criminals keep making better and more efficient malwares?

2019-02-04 02:59:21 UTC

I guess this guy never landed at a US airport

2019-02-04 02:59:37 UTC

2019-02-04 02:59:41 UTC

welfare is garbage

2019-02-04 02:59:42 UTC

yea even a simple chain link fence helps alot in a lot of places

2019-02-04 02:59:47 UTC

It's a fight that never ends. Not building a wall is admission of defeat.

2019-02-04 02:59:48 UTC

yeet that then

2019-02-04 03:00:07 UTC

Literally ask a border agent @Capitรกn Alatriste

2019-02-04 03:00:12 UTC

Ask them

2019-02-04 03:00:19 UTC

"Does a border wall work?"

2019-02-04 03:00:32 UTC

@Nordhand A fence is fine, and the US border has several stretches of fence

2019-02-04 03:00:50 UTC

A fence is fine, but not a bigger fence

2019-02-04 03:00:57 UTC

even the EU have it border walls

2019-02-04 03:01:11 UTC

The EU doesn't have border walls

2019-02-04 03:01:17 UTC

Wut

2019-02-04 03:01:25 UTC

There's a picture of one right there

2019-02-04 03:01:31 UTC

That's a fence

2019-02-04 03:01:35 UTC

.....

2019-02-04 03:01:42 UTC

Are your fences that tall?

2019-02-04 03:01:46 UTC

Damn

2019-02-04 03:02:04 UTC

Who fucking cares what it's called @Capitรกn Alatriste

2019-02-04 03:02:41 UTC

we can always call Israel they are masters of making fucking big walls to keep people in check

2019-02-04 03:03:05 UTC

Is our proposed border barrier a fence or wall? @Capitรกn Alatriste

2019-02-04 03:03:39 UTC

as they did just start building a wall so bad ass it makes trumps wall look like a picket fences

2019-02-04 03:03:56 UTC

A fence can easily be placed and removed they aren't permanent as a wall. A wall is a testimony of last resort cutting of all other solutions. It's giving into the temptation of the easy way out. A fence is see through, so it's not a hostile action, it represents a semi permeable barrier where the intent is to make it clear that there is a line on the ground

2019-02-04 03:04:07 UTC

@Fitzydog Your proposed barrier is a wall

2019-02-04 03:04:13 UTC

Oy vey

2019-02-04 03:04:20 UTC

@Capitรกn Alatriste The steel posts in the ground?

2019-02-04 03:04:29 UTC

20 feet tall steel barrier against it southern border

2019-02-04 03:04:31 UTC

my propsosed barrier is a wall of bullets and artillery barrages

2019-02-04 03:04:34 UTC

Temporary Steel

2019-02-04 03:04:39 UTC

Gib picture of border wall @galesteppes

2019-02-04 03:04:48 UTC

@Fitzydog the steel posts is just an even stupider cross of a wall and a fence

2019-02-04 03:04:58 UTC

A fence is fine, just like there already is

2019-02-04 03:05:15 UTC

A fence is just a shitty wall though

2019-02-04 03:05:22 UTC

I can't wait to see your ass triying to cross our border when your continent collapses. @Capitรกn Alatriste

2019-02-04 03:05:37 UTC

you'd like that

2019-02-04 03:05:37 UTC

the steel system is fine as it stops most of the attack you can easy do to a chain link fence

2019-02-04 03:05:46 UTC

but I doubt it

2019-02-04 03:05:47 UTC

@Fitzydog I'd shoot his boat <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

2019-02-04 05:04:21 UTC

Diverse cities with constitutional carry have higher rates of homicide than other cities

2019-02-04 05:05:00 UTC

imagine my shock

2019-02-04 05:05:28 UTC

Little Rock and Boise have similar gun laws, yet the homicide rate is 6 times higher in LR

2019-02-04 05:05:55 UTC

Becase 50/50 black/white

2019-02-04 05:06:49 UTC

More diversity = more gangs

2019-02-04 05:07:38 UTC

Yet, if that were true, why are there still gangs in Detroit?

2019-02-04 05:11:26 UTC

depends on what you mean by diversity <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

2019-02-04 05:11:38 UTC

I mean actual diversity

2019-02-04 05:12:07 UTC

If diversity means more gangs, then Detroit should have less gangs because it is almost mono racial at this point

2019-02-04 05:12:51 UTC

i'm saying i dont buy the diversity argument

2019-02-04 05:13:04 UTC

how many white gangs are there really?

2019-02-04 05:13:13 UTC

i dont know of that many

2019-02-04 05:13:44 UTC

blacks and mexicans are more likely to do gang shit

2019-02-04 05:13:57 UTC

Yes, that's my point

2019-02-04 05:14:17 UTC

The numbers all point in that direction

2019-02-04 05:14:33 UTC

that's why i said it depends on what you mean by diversity

2019-02-04 05:14:43 UTC

as in diversity equals minorities

2019-02-04 05:16:37 UTC

What I meant was, if you looked at JUST the states with constitutional carry laws, and compared them on homicide rates correlated with ethnic diversity, you would see a correlation between monoethnic cities and lower homicide.

But if that were a true statement, then that would be applicable to let's say Detroit where there is a monoethnic population for Blacks. i.e. NO diversity

2019-02-04 05:17:00 UTC

But that's not the case

2019-02-04 05:17:59 UTC

because blacks do the most crime

2019-02-04 05:18:27 UTC

Yes, the numbers seem to indicate that, regardless of diverse urban populations

2019-02-04 05:18:34 UTC

especially gun homicides

2019-02-04 05:18:46 UTC

Which is a big <:oof:494878589406150657>

2019-02-04 05:20:39 UTC

blacks are really hostile

2019-02-04 05:20:39 UTC

round up the darkies?

2019-02-04 05:20:44 UTC

Did Spaniard actually claim that walls are a hostile action?

2019-02-04 05:20:48 UTC

yes

2019-02-04 05:20:48 UTC

Yes

2019-02-04 05:21:21 UTC

That is where we got the name for the word defense.

did you know he has a summer home?

2019-02-04 05:22:13 UTC

It by definition cannot be hostile. Even if you setup MG nests along it, that is still a static, defensive emplacement.

2019-02-04 05:22:40 UTC

Europeans don't understand the concept of private property

2019-02-04 05:22:44 UTC

You cannot possibly be that removed from humanity

2019-02-04 05:23:28 UTC

That's Bismarkian philosophy for you

2019-02-04 05:23:31 UTC

I fail to see in what world their ideas become acceptable.

2019-02-04 05:24:30 UTC

If you cannot use barriers as a peaceful solution, then what are you expected to do that isn't 'hostile'?

2019-02-04 05:24:40 UTC

Nothing

2019-02-04 05:24:40 UTC

i bet you there will be a lot more gated communities in Europe very soon lol

2019-02-04 05:24:57 UTC

@EnderOctanus Doing ANYTHING is hostile

2019-02-04 05:25:02 UTC

Or a lot of dead not poor people

2019-02-04 05:25:07 UTC

Because those people have a right to "free movement"

2019-02-04 05:25:36 UTC

No they don't, they have the right to live assuming my bullet misses.

2019-02-04 05:26:06 UTC

i get where that idea comes from, but it breaks down very quickly

2019-02-04 05:26:47 UTC

you can't just move into someones area and start benefiting off of what they built

2019-02-04 05:26:58 UTC

If you are in a dire situation and ask for my help, I am the sort to do what I feasibly can.

2019-02-04 05:27:09 UTC

most people are like that

2019-02-04 05:27:28 UTC

maybe not leftists lol

2019-02-04 05:27:38 UTC

But I am also not going to pretend to trust you. Bad people can need help too.

2019-02-04 05:28:20 UTC

The entire kernal of their philosophy is centered on grouping people by characteristics

Society should be dealt with on the macro scale of social groups

2019-02-04 05:29:11 UTC

But they don't get to come inside automatically.

2019-02-04 05:30:09 UTC

Same with pets. I see someone's pet is loose, I do my best to return it to them. And frequently have to do so.

2019-02-04 05:30:40 UTC

I don't mind helping someone elses' property out if it wasn't necessarily their fault, you know?

2019-02-04 05:31:35 UTC

I lend tools when hurricanes come through so people can cut the trees and branches and move them, and repair structures etc. ButI expect it to be returned, and it always is.

2019-02-04 05:31:44 UTC

I feel like this is why europeans also stick with a parliamentary system.

It assumes that there are multiple special interest groups that have a right to be heard by their own party, instead of treating the entire nation or geographic area as a single group

2019-02-04 05:32:46 UTC

Well they do have that issue, but I dunno if it stems from the style of government or vice versa

2019-02-04 05:33:01 UTC

No no, I'm saying they both stem from the same mindset

2019-02-04 05:33:23 UTC

Viewing society as an intersection of groups

2019-02-04 05:33:35 UTC

I think their societies developed to adapt to the government, self-fulfilling expected issues.

2019-02-04 05:33:50 UTC

Hm

2019-02-04 05:34:25 UTC

Well to be fair that is also how republics work

2019-02-04 05:34:34 UTC

Not exactly

2019-02-04 05:34:40 UTC

Almost inverted

2019-02-04 05:35:02 UTC

You have separated groups of power.

2019-02-04 05:35:13 UTC

Which is a good thing I think

2019-02-04 05:35:16 UTC

Right, but they're based on geographic area

2019-02-04 05:35:26 UTC

Imagine if the Va shit was on the national level

2019-02-04 05:35:38 UTC

These are based on social groups, like Liberals, Conservatives, Greens, Socialists, etc

2019-02-04 05:35:51 UTC

Almost like syndicalism

2019-02-04 05:36:08 UTC

Same philosophical kernal

2019-02-04 05:37:12 UTC

I just like it when people stop actively trying to rip apart the most successful system we've actually gotten to work and not immediately collapse, in human history.

2019-02-04 05:38:17 UTC

Just because they *think* they can do it even better.

2019-02-04 05:38:30 UTC

Thats why I like confederacies. It takes what we've done to the next level.

The opposite of what Europe does

2019-02-04 05:39:28 UTC

2019-02-04 05:39:42 UTC

those maps of how people vote by race have even very eye opening
i hate to say it, but it shows me that minorities are leeches

2019-02-04 05:39:48 UTC

@AlanPowell very good meme

2019-02-04 05:39:48 UTC

I don't know. As much as you can, validly, complain about the centralized function of the Fed, it also has saved our asses on major shit before.

2019-02-04 05:40:06 UTC

@AlanPowell what about da chinks and the its?

2019-02-04 05:40:47 UTC

Alan you're walking on a slippery slope man.

2019-02-04 05:40:55 UTC

idk, maybe.

I feel like we need MANY more people in our legislative bodies.

It should be near impossible to come to an agreement on most things, unless it really is that important

2019-02-04 05:41:34 UTC

But we have demonstrated that even when they think the world is ending, they still cannot agree.

2019-02-04 05:41:41 UTC

they still tend to vote democrat for some reason iirc, but they are a small portion of the population @galesteppes

2019-02-04 05:41:48 UTC

If you're able to easily get a unanimous vote on something, you have too few people

2019-02-04 05:42:24 UTC

@AlanPowell because they're naturally collectivist

2019-02-04 05:42:40 UTC

Or you have people that live largely the same way, thus share most philosophies and worldviews.

2019-02-04 05:42:41 UTC

that could be it

2019-02-04 05:42:44 UTC

I refuse to agree to that until we have proof

2019-02-04 05:43:15 UTC

although, it's easier to teach a collectivist to be an individualist than it is trying to teach monkies(niggers) how to behave

2019-02-04 05:43:28 UTC

<:super_edgy:426099058466095119>

2019-02-04 05:43:51 UTC

I disagree, look how many who educate themselves get rich.

2019-02-04 05:44:13 UTC

They just distance the culture from themselves and viola

2019-02-04 05:44:13 UTC

I have many black friends.

They all have one thing in common though: They act white.

2019-02-04 05:44:33 UTC

i feel bad for the blacks, they have been fucked over pretty bad, i dont think they will ever recover tbh

2019-02-04 05:44:34 UTC

<:oof:494878589406150657>

2019-02-04 05:44:40 UTC

Yeah it has everything to do with culture.

2019-02-04 05:44:51 UTC

I also have an asian friend who was adopted by white parents.

That dude's cool af

2019-02-04 05:45:03 UTC

Works on the railroad, and loves NASCAR

2019-02-04 05:45:03 UTC

@Fitzydog doesn't help that niggers shame good innoscent childern into being niggers

2019-02-04 05:45:08 UTC

They won't because they teach themselves that they cannot.

2019-02-04 05:45:43 UTC

They accept economic government slavery early on.

2019-02-04 05:46:03 UTC

their culture is so shitty that even trying to change it is considered evil in some way to them
