"far right", "populist" will probably be powerless as slurs tho right

2018-12-08 19:35:09 UTC  

Racist already lost its meaning

2018-12-08 19:35:21 UTC  

because no-one like racists and nazis .... except racists and nazis .. and they are rare AF

2018-12-08 19:35:23 UTC  

that's why they say ultra far right now lol

2018-12-08 19:35:41 UTC  

racists are everywhere, friend

2018-12-08 19:35:51 UTC  

all of their constantly spewed phrases to silence those they disagree with will lose their meaning at this pace

2018-12-08 19:36:23 UTC  

i think as old as time no-one has liked being preached to... thats the main downfall of the conservative religious right... and the modern regressive left

2018-12-08 19:37:03 UTC  

the time we're living in is probably a revolutionary era tho in the sense that things that are happening rn are more or less irreversible

2018-12-08 19:37:08 UTC  

we are at a cross roads

2018-12-08 19:37:10 UTC  

and once they lose their meaning and power, anger will take the place that shame would have and that will lead to feeling rightoues wrath

2018-12-08 19:37:13 UTC  

and that's across the globe

2018-12-08 19:38:39 UTC  

It's kinda sad that we changed our behavior mostly cause of technologies, not cause battling ideologies. We've tried some stupid shit across the world

2018-12-08 19:38:57 UTC  

Socialism, Nazism

2018-12-08 19:39:37 UTC  

the world has gotten extremely small extremely fast. We've done more development wise in 100 years then all of human history combined and multiplied

2018-12-08 19:39:51 UTC  

"development"

2018-12-08 19:40:08 UTC  

that word is like "progress", means different things to different people

2018-12-08 19:40:42 UTC  

sounds you're feeling another dark ages is upon us?

2018-12-08 19:41:10 UTC  

who was that islamic leader who decreed that math is the work of the devil

2018-12-08 19:41:20 UTC  

i think it's been here for quite some time now, and i feel like this is the first one 😬

2018-12-08 19:41:21 UTC  

that ended the islamic golden age of science

2018-12-08 19:41:33 UTC  

Lots of that PROGRESS tho came from war :]

2018-12-08 19:41:40 UTC  

and changed their direction to what it is today

2018-12-08 19:42:24 UTC  

idk if better technology would've made middle east's direction different

2018-12-08 19:42:40 UTC  

probably not

2018-12-08 19:42:51 UTC  

like they're pretty rich rn in many parts

2018-12-08 19:43:08 UTC  

oil though, and later on trade centers

2018-12-08 19:43:34 UTC  

the place is slowly Westernizing tho in current year

2018-12-08 19:44:50 UTC  

That's why i love traveling to asian countries, lol. Very easy in terms of religion and shit, pure old culture

2018-12-08 19:45:08 UTC  

if the middle east hadnt gone conservative religious in 1100... it would definitely be a super power today

2018-12-08 19:45:10 UTC  

it's all empty tho, just like the West

2018-12-08 19:45:38 UTC  

people don't really understand religion, even those that say they follow it

2018-12-08 19:45:51 UTC  

and if the UK didnt have a conservative religious history in the dark ages it would also be much more powerful

2018-12-08 19:46:45 UTC  

what's France and England gotten from being "superpowers" for centuries tho, really

2018-12-08 19:46:46 UTC  

@AdorableStormtrooper that's my only criticism of Jordan Petersons work, if i may call it that. His discourse about religion is on another lvl, its not for your average Joe to understand

2018-12-08 19:47:51 UTC  

yeah his lectures are very difficult, but then Scripture itself isn't that easy to interpret, in comparison Peterson is like a guide book

2018-12-08 19:48:29 UTC  

at least he's not full conservative religious...

2018-12-08 19:48:36 UTC  

doesnt want evolution out of schools etc

2018-12-08 19:48:52 UTC  

Yeah, but how many of his ideas are really there and how many are just his interpretation

2018-12-08 19:49:07 UTC  

he believes in evolution

2018-12-08 19:49:26 UTC  

exactly

2018-12-08 19:49:32 UTC  

that's the nature of commentary on Scripture, it's all someone's interpretation
