I think collectivism is a lot like religion. It's literally impossible to fully support it.

Best you can do is pick one of the infinite sects and support that, and reject all the rest.

Individualists just go one sect further.

Well, Fascism lost, Communism lost, Islam is just another in a line of retards

Of course, using bullwhips amazing logic, we should imitate the people being retards to own the retards

I've been thinking lately about the SJW-ifying of movies and games and TV shows and such.

I think I'm going to stop accusing creators of doing that unless they admit it.

Like Ghostbusters is still on the table for criticism because they're proud of it, but if I just pick up something like Gone Home and they're not saying the reason why they chose a lesbian romance is in order to promote social justice, then I'm just going to assume the best of their motives until proven otherwise.

And honestly even if they do admit to having a SJW bias the art could still be good, like Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

I think it's really sad that I'm forced to wonder, every time I pick up a piece of art, 'Is this SJW propaganda designed to manipulate me?'... I don't want to wonder that! I just want to enjoy it.

But I think I'm going to start erring on the side of enjoying things for what they are.

The thing I am *much more* concerned about are the things that they're *removing.* Like if you want to make a story about a black person struggling with the fact that he's in the inner city and everyone is a thug who's on welfare... you wouldn't be allowed. That just wouldn't see the light of day.

Feminizing the Ghostbusters is nothing compared to the crime of suppressing some raw and interesting story.

Because of the values you listed, you described cultural stereotypes, that are easily subject to change. @Cream Man

@Cream Man well I have, and do.

You say that, but they have persevered for hundreds of years

Only to all but disappear

Perhaps that is evidence of a genetic link to culture

I mean, shit i'll do what i can to fight it, but if it's fucked it's fucked.

genetics is not linked to culture.

Well we are speaking right now, about a culture of hundreds of years being wiped away

And what is the variable

The destruction of the ethnic homogeneity of Europe is atleast something worth considering, we see what happened in Yugoslavia

Whether that is

As a result of the refusal to integrate within ethnic communities

Or actual genetics

Ethnicity means nothing, cultural compatibility is everything.

Both are interesting

Why do you think ethnicity means nothing?

Out of curiosity

Because identity with the culture plays a far more important role.

Considering intelligence is linked to genetics, why would it be hard to believe that some other social and psychological traits might be the same way

Which might evolve over time into distinct cultures

....

Today in “Giant Leaps of Logic”

Is that a giant leap

It's a fucking giant oversimplification of genetics for a start.

It really is

Outside of outright genetic conditions, intelligence has an insane degree of variables that effect it, nevermind that intelligence is somewhat subjective.

A country with a high degree of agricultural resources will always have a higher base IQ than one with greater industrial resources for instance. look at north and south korea for instance.

Actually, now that you mention it, thats a really good example

I think you are assuming correlation is causation here

I'm really not. If you can't eat, your brain won't be working at peak performance.
