but we all know college =/= smart at this point
At the height of the Catholic Church before the Reformation many priests had never read the Bible. The educate yourself quip is a sign of the same sort of religious Dogma
@Asatru Artist - MD likely propaganda bud. More indoctrination is what they probably meant.
With the collapse of identity, people have fallen into weird political existentialism to give their lives meaning. Politics isn’t real opinion for a lot of people, politics is an identifier.
@Asatru Artist - MD I think it's true that liberals have a higher average IQ than conservatives, but it's not as damaging as it sounds. Higher IQ people are more likely to go to college, and liberals are more likely to pursue jobs in education. So, logically, it makes sense that high IQ people will tend to end up liberal.
That's actually not true. The higher IQ myth comes from studies that only survey college students. In the general populace conservatives have a higher IQ
I would honestly be surprised if higher IQ people *weren't* more likely to be liberal at a time when liberals dominate the institutions
i was just saying "more educated" meaning more went to/graduated college. That's why I said they aren't necessarily "smarter", because college is quite the joke these days.
plus if everyone has a college degree, no one really does.
We’ll see more smart people skip college soon
For every grad student out there you've got 10 Inner City people dragging down the average
The smartest drop out
Of college
@Jacob Oh yeah those videos that go viral of *racist, evil* whitey being mean to blacks whether it'd be at the pool or at their apartment. I've grown accustomed to always question anything I don't have 100% of the facts. Sad we can't trust the media, but that is reality
During communism, the people who brought down the regimes weren't exactly the highest IQ people. They were random shipyard workers. That doesn't make communism good. It's pretty normal that high IQ people conform to whatever thought system dominates the institutions at the time.
the dude that started Virgin Mobile was a high school drop out of iirc
and he's a billionaire now...
He's also a liberal
@Asatru Artist - MD that simple concept is why Bernie is sooo wrong on the "free college" thing
At the high end of wealth liberalism becomes a political expedient and a way to Shield yourself from backlash
@Perihelion - CA I'm just saying, you don't need college to be successful, as most of us here know already.

@NiceGuy The fact that these videos go viral is actually proof of black privilege. Even if a white person genuinely did call the police on a black person for a bogus reason, what this shows is that if a white person mildly inconveniences a black person, it becomes national news. Meanwhile, there was a story where a black woman set a white baby on fire and it barely made local news.
take the survey everyone
We can actually use these stories to our advantage by pointing that out
@Jordan - MD The whole "free college" thing is just to get a ton of other do-nothings to vote for him. Plus, he doesn't care about money because he has been a govt parasite for decades. "Money" literally grows on trees to him.
Oh wow yeah I never realized that
There are definitely smart people who drop out of college because they find their talents wasted. There are also plenty of dropouts who couldn’t handle it who shouldn’t have been there in the first place.
@Jacob very astute tbh
Alright folks we'll get started in an hour, please remember to mute your mics.
College is just a way to transfer the cost of training from the employer to the employee. It's a wage reduction hidden behind a veneer
I once had a friend tell me about a white person doing some mean to a black person, and I calmly explained to him that all this proves is that mildly inconveniencing a black person gets more attention than committing an actual crime against a white person. By the end of the conversation he took my side and agreed that it's a double standard and this stuff shouldn't actually be news.
You can change people's minds by politely pointing stuff like this out
I think many whites are feeling the heat of crime and anti whiteness and so they may overreact but they often react correctly
@Freiheit - CA I've got my glass of ice ready for fireside! <:teehee:381917632359563264>
Since colleges operate like businesses now, they basically let in literally whoever. It has the kind of nasty side effect of drastically lowering the quality of the service you’re provided.
It's a side effect of unlimited credit sponsored by the government. Unlimited credit always generates Monopoly pricing
“Group project” = “required hand holding for people who shouldn’t have been allowed to finish high school”
Ice meme is ded pls
