Humanists ought to be concerned about humans regardless of their national origin, ancestry or religion. What can we do to promote individual freedoms and rights? How do we protect people? Accident of one’s birth into some Islamic hell hole or Hindu or fill in the blank should not be the reason…[Read more]

You are spot on that modernity has delivered a lot of upgrades.

On other hand how much better are the masses today compared to yesteryear? I don’t have answers to that question. It is easy to point to the Islamic world as backwards and filled with oppression and persecution. Wars all over the fucking glob. Starvation. Famine. Ignorance. I…[Read more]

Ya wanna assasinate someone. Gonna be easy to locate em. Might help pinpoint targets and avoid innocents i suppose. But with Muslim terrorists we are all kuffar. Great tech for thieves. Steal shit when they are not there. Great tech for rapists.

And then imagine that technology in…[Read more]

You’re probably in a bucolic paradise where the immediacy and rapidity of incipient technohell is a little removed. AKA Vermont.

I aint arguing that it can be stopped. Am only crying the blues up and down at a future that might have been avoided by a stronger Luddite movement. Naa no stopping the tide…

We have been becoming more and more visible via electronic mechanisms over the years, and eventually we will have to learn to live with this. Tin foil hats probably won’t help. So it’s futile to knee jerk against this kind of usage of WiFi, because it’s coming. Writing laws prohibiting things don’t act…[Read more]

How rare is intelligence? I mean general intelligence. The ideological capture of so many academics, the presidents of universities, the students. The underlying narratives are so weak and transparent.

I grew up wtihout giving respect to a thinker until i thought it was earned. I think that was due to having a father who is…[Read more]

I meant broadly speaking a reflection of the electorate and more to the point of the zeitgeist. Reg had a good article on the flowering of Jew hatred and differences between far right and far left in contemporary world. Far left and far right come at it a little differently.

Zionism is the code word for Filthy Jew and its associations.

I remember the first time i argued with a gal about zionism. I was gobsmacked at her antipathy. None of the rational things i raised seemed to make a dent. A welcoming to progressivism…

My Lezbrews reference was to the idea i had to counter the propaganda against Israel with a story about mythical Lezbrews of yore. Nothing to do with sexual orientation of those women.

Iron, iron that, iron giant, irony…

And they got something for globalize the intifada from the river to the pea.

That all makes sense to me. Your bronto is pronto and unique. Unlike Block universe in which i am not ruling it out but i am far from convinced.

That article finally gave me a working conept about which i was puzzled. Reductionist which i always observe is being used to criticize or undermine an idea or argument and i always thought it was…[Read more]

They found fossils of the original Palestinians. The genocidal Zionists in their diabolical ways formerly known as Australopithekike were trying to eradicate our cherished paradigms of goodness.

As it was in the beginning..

Religion is the worst cancer ever visited on humanity.

And in terms of the dodger blue bleeding for the nakba i doubt ten percent of the lefties have any knowledge of the ethnic cleansing of Jews in the middle east and…[Read more]

Just want to express my admiration for the national identity of a people who did not exist when the rejection of compromise was swift and the attack on Jews in their ancestral homeland was immediate. At that moment”Palestians” were Jews. The evidence is ample. If the coalition of Arabs had not been such fuck-ups they…[Read more]

I did not know. Figures though. Screw up a wet dream…

Factually i don’t think it was only the terrorists who were injured/killed. Primarily Hezbollah killed and injured though.

Psychological impact was predictably potent. Without any preconceived notions about the enemy that shit is frightening. Pagers? Boom! Walkie talkies? Boom! Now throw in the indoctrination and obsession with Jews as…[Read more]

I lack direct knowledge but i’d be willing to wager that the pager incident on Hezbollah brought out the worst fears/superstitions about Jews. Pull off a few more of those and the capitulation queue is filling rapidly. Use the delusion against the deluded. Trying to reason with fully indoctrinated Jihadists/Islamists is…[Read more]

“The U.S. needs to fight fiery religious beliefs, not with more bombs, but with bullets of information that weaken those beliefs.”

Brilliant! That ought to stop the IRGC and its terrorists proxies in their tracks.…[Read more]

Good read unspoiled by a walk. And yet i love to walk and conduct internal talk utilizing internal clock. Tick tock metronome block.

Each tribe has its own “marae” which is their sacred community building where they attain a sense of ‘belonging’. It is prohibited for non-tribe members.  I was adopted as sister, and embraced into the shared flow of…[Read more]

Any stories you care to share i am all ears.

Also, how did your experiences alter your world view?

Here is AI response to “Do chimps have culture?”

Yes, chimpanzees exhibit culture, defined as behaviors that are socially transmitted rather than genetically inherited or caused solely by ecological factors. Different chimpanzee communities across Africa possess unique traditions—such as specific tool usage, grooming techniques, and c…[Read more]

Stories about all of them, that changed my perceptions of almost…[Read more]

Chimps can be culturally morphed to alternate behaviors. The whole debate is like nature/nurture. If you ascribe all to one or other you have missed the fed ex delivery.

The plastisity of human behavior is remarkable. There is no depth of stupidity and credulity too far. No depth of moral bankruptcy too depraved. Comfort in the social…[Read more]

We are plastic. It is neither a vehicle nor a root.

”We Homo Sapiens just surround our wars with ideology and religion” is quite a profound statement.

This fits in with the behaviours of some of the far flung tribal groups I’ve lived with. For them, religion is a comfort, not a cause. They still have aggression, but the dividers between ‘them’ and ‘us’ are more commonly tribal root orientat…[Read more]

The herd won’t chime in if they’re incurious.

Where to start. Let me see. Rip it up and set the herd free. The notion that bias seeps into science is true. It does not however follow that Jane Goodall’s conclusions were nonscientific and one of the bases of bias.

Ya can’t take out the instinct of a feline notwithstanding artificial selection. They are predators to the core. I should not say that because in all likelihood given enough time and artificial selection it might be diminished and ultimately end.
