So those Redscare Pod chicks are just fascists apparently 
Everything I disagree with is fascism.
Red Scare should be in the dictionary next to "horseshoe theory". They started out super left, went so far they became fascists.
Going too far left doesn't lead you to the right. Being a shameless grifter does.
"Durrr how can they be good if they don't fear God?"
Bible thumpers are so idiotic.
It makes sense to them. The Bible says unbelievers are stupid and evil, they believe the Bible is true, so they have to think we're stupid and evil. On top of that, biblical morality begins and ends with worshipping Yahweh. It's the number one commandment, and what Jesus says is more important than anything, including your children or your own survival. It's really fricked up.
The Bible properly says everyone is stupid and evil, that's why they have the concept of grace.
The Bible very specifically says unbelievers.
Psalm 14:1 "For the choir director: A psalm of David. Only fools say in their hearts, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good."
2 Corinthians 6:17 "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?"
John 3:18 "Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."
Mark 16:15 He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned."
That's just some "centrist" dishonesty, like all the "I'm not racist, I hate everyone equally⦠but I'm dropping hard R's every time I see a black guy."
Being saved doesn't mean you're a good person per se, as I'm referring to the doctrine of original sin. The faithful are saved through grace.
Forget being "saved", it says all unbelievers are condemned, will be punished for not believing. That is Kim Jung Un style despotism.
For that matter, you cannot be "saved" by the one making the threat. Jesus/Yahweh is the one threatening to kill you for not worshipping him, so it is not saving. You don't praise a murderer for saving you by choosing not killing you. It's Jesus/Yahweh's choice to demand worship, and his choice to espouse punishment for not worshipping.
Exp comment: I never listened but I remember them being perceived as something of an irreverent "dirtbag left" show of the Chapo trap house variety. I think they collabed with Alex Jones recently? Big yikes.
Yeah if I'm not mistaken they went from dirtbag left to tradcath fascist when Biden got elected, I think primarily because COVID lockdowns prevented them from partying as much
I am so confused. Leftists don't like IQ because all people are equal in the eyes of God? IQ, which does not measure intelligence, but problem solving with a massive cultural element. So why would we dislike things that make all people equal?
I think it's a stupid meritocracy thing? She believes IQ is an objective measure of intelligence so if you don't agree with testing IQ, it's because you think some humans are naturally less capable of being intelligent
Wouldn't believing in IQ mean that?
Honestly, it's just fact that some humans are less capable of being intelligent. But the trick is to still see everyone as equal. They've likely got something going on for them that someone more intelligent doesn't. I don't know. IQ is stupid, but we're all different, and yet, our worth is all equal. I don't believe in God. And I don't understand what this b-word is talkin' about.

Left wing people believe in the most r-slurred blank slate view of things. They think if two 75 IQ people have a kid but he's properly nourished, and taught properly about The War of 1812 and Rosa Parks, that he will grow up to be whatever he wants to be.

I think intelligence is far more heritable than anybody wants to admit, which is why research on the subject is effectively banned.

doesn't food/nourishment still adhere to deterministic and genetic IQ though?
your parents pass on genes for intelligence but also lack of food/resources can literally make you r-slurreder
I'm not one to believe in "brain food" but can you do some eugenics experiments to take low IQ populations and see if you can raise their IQ after a few generations?

I just googled and found an interesting paper that said that the environmental effects on IQ are greater for higher IQ children than lower IQ children because higher IQ children have a longer period of child-like learning.

The big ideologues on the left don't actually believe that shit. The just promote it because it's convenient.
Rightoids are also massive hypocrites though and will drop the LARP Christian "All lives are precious", shtick the moment it becomes politically acceptable to declare the underclass subhumans and kill them off or let them die.

no that's internally consistent
if you let someone die after they've repented, they'll go to heaven, but fetal souls always go to heck

It shows what they really think, because it shouldn't matter. You should still treat everyone with respect and enable them to be the best they can be, break their own barriers.
But if they decided people weren't blank slates, they'd be voting for gas chambers immediately, absolutely certain that they would make the usefulness cut-off.

I agree with all of what you said but I want to hone in on this...
This is why white nationalism, especially of the online variety, is pretty distasteful. There's no reason to stew about these issues for a decade as some edgelords have since 2015. It's tiresome and unconstructive.
If you want to reorganize society into more of a meritocracy then great! But don't be a Colin Flaherty or Anthony Cumia turning every conversation into one about black crime.

The difference between violent crime and BIPOC r-sluration in poor blacks vs rich blacks is much more stark than the difference between violent crime and BIPOC r-sluration in rich blacks vs rich whites. Black people don't come out looking good either way, and it's unhelpful to religiously deny it and blame slavery, but it seems like puzzling over the race genes is an unrealistic path.
Poverty is a lot more than just a bank balance, and that leads to other uncomfortable conversations that aren't magically resolved by declaring "socioeconomic factors", but white nationalism in no way is at the top of that list. Unless you declare being on time and goal oriented behavior as a trait of whiteness...
.. Who would say such a thing other than a white nationalist though?

I wonder if that rich black statistic makes a distinction between blacks born wealth and blacks who obtained wealth later in life π€

The end outcome of meritocracy would see practically no blacks in high levels of government, academia, or business. Even after civil rights outcomes for blacks did not improve, thats where affirmative action, DEI, "systemic racism" and "white privilege" come from. It's only distasteful when you 100 percent but into the egalitarian worldview
