People who memorize things and follow orders blindly do well in that environment.

So if you had a crew of North American dissenters who come from educated backgrounds who weren’t with any state and say idk set up a shop in let’s say Argentina. And let’s say this shops sells... meat. You aren’t going to be able to continue that shop if you don’t have a steady supply of livestock. And you can only have a small amount on the ship right ? So if you want that to succeed your priority in setting up said shop wouldn’t be to sell the meat. But to network to a farmer to send cattle in. Once you have people bringing in slaughtered cows. BOOM networking. Teach some workers how to cleanly butcher the meat. BOOM seized an entire branch of production. Where ever you put down that shop you just developed commerce where you landed. So if the place starts getting too successful. Sell it off and BOOM you just eliminated a small amount of market stagnation where ever you set that shop up. So! Say you sail around for 6 months before going back to that same port. If you set up and sold your meat market well enough you will have generated more commerce in that area. Which as a pirate you can 1. Take that capital entirely from the area and plunder them for maximum short term profits and decimation of what you set up 2. Set up a fence and create a trading area for yourself and continue helping the people in whatever way you see fit so that you build a good image for yourself and possibly gain protection from the public opinion

3. Idk fuck off do whatever you want you’re a pirate

Which I’m not saying that’s gospel or anything but that’s more of just an example of how piracy done right can be very profitable for pretty much every one if done right

You know except the people you rob they don’t get very much out of it

@BoundlessSet it's asinine to believe low IQs (only one realtive measure of certain intelligences) created nations in economic distress. You should watch the documentary Unsustainable to explore how nations have been economically oppressed by world forums for the purpose of consolidating power

Additionally communism has been quite successful, for it's purpose which is totalitarianism

Oh man stupid people are so good at getting things done. I’d say that people with more open paths of thought are a lot more likely to get distracted and distressed by the current bureaucratic way of the world than someone who is just like ooha booga me build wall

you sound like a dip shit.

me?

Yeah definitely

Stupid people are ignorant, not free from other avenues of thought

yeah i know

You're equating a relative measure of certain intelligences like iq with actual intelligence

Which takes many forms

Geniuses can be ineffective and ignorant

but usually they are less likely to get distracted by that because they don't have the same capacity to worry about those strings of thought as much

In which case intelligence as measured by iq is useless

anyway I wasn't really trying to make a diehard point there my guy

That's absurd. The level of depth to a person's thoughts is unquantifiable. Language for example, allows for communication of internal dialogue but people who have a limited grasp of language don't consider or conceptualize less. They have less access to avenues of communication. That's all

It tends to be that those people convey through other means

I hear you, my point stands. And I'm a female.

I just call everyone man guy or dude cause I know a lot of people so its kinda just a catch all phrase

sorry if it offended you

It didn't offend me

okay cool

It seemed like you were confused

I was clarifying

@Lᵃʷ ᵂʳᵉⁿ is that your pet in your PFP?

It was. She's dead now. But not in that photo.

I’m so sorry

No worries it's life

She was sweet. I highly recommend guinea pigs

But get more than one

We took in two guinnies they are loud but definitely a great pet

They need the company

I love their noises

The squeals when they see you <:Laughing:702406018130378782>

Oinkkkkkoinkkkoinkoinkoink

It’s wonderful, someone was giving them away when they where full grown cause “they arnt cute anymore” so we took them and they lived like Kings till they passed

That's very sad that people think along those lines
