  1. Man that video was absolutely sickening I haven't done a lot of research about Pizzagate, but the videos you linked to are awfully convincing to me that it is John Podesta abusing that child. That doesn't mean it is necessarily true obviously, but it is convincing - higher pitched New York/Italian voice and the circumstantial evidence is interesting to say the least. The voice belonging to the person torturing that child is emotionally charged and rising in tonality. The clip of John Podesta taken by James O-Keefe captures John not emotionally charged and is in a falling tonality. In other words, it's not the best comparison. https://youtu.be/0Vt6yyFujWg?t=4m31s <object width="425" height="344" data="<object width="425" height="344" data="https://youtu.be/0Vt6yyFujWg?t=4m31s"></object>"></object> This is a situation where he IS emotionally charged and his tonality is rising and at the high end of his vocal range.
  2. See how they respond if you string together a very long and complex sentence (of paragraph length) - less intelligent people tend to tune out or not have much to say in response See how much slang they use See if they know a little bit about various current events See what their relationship is towards fun/knowledge and how much overlap exists between those two for them See how conforming they are to the zeitgeist of the mainstream media I don't think I could reasonably gauge someone's IQ score based on these things, but I believe I can usually tell whether or not they are in the upper half or bottom half of intelligence.
  3. I briefly attended an all black school in the ghetto in Birmingham, Alabama - I was the only white kid there. Needless to say, the classes were far behind my school in California, the teachers were very unhappy, and many of the kids had never developed a healthy sense of restraint which parents are supposed to model for their children. I attended this school briefly in the year 2000. I should also mention that this school allowed corporal punishment, and as far as I know, the state of Alabama still does. So the physical abuse at home is reinforced by physical abuse in the school, and the physical abuse at home produces acting out behavior which leads to more physical abuse at school, etc etc etc, ad infinitum.
  4. Thank you SO much! Seriously, I probably never would have found it.
  5. If you want a good laugh, search on The Guardian's website for the few articles about refugees which still allow comments. Check out the ratio of deleted comments to approved comments. It really is beautiful to see a propaganda mouthpiece's audience turn on it in real time.
  6. Found him on London Real, really great episodes to watch. His tactics and style of presentation are unfavorable to some people, but it's clear he is a great motivator and sometimes we need someone to just tell us the truth with no filter.
  7. I called into FDR in late 2011 or 2012, more likely 2012, and though I remember the text "A dream about defenses" being the description of my call, and I can't seem to find it though I have spent at least a half hour searching using the keywords "Sunday" "call in" "dream about defenses" etc. If anyone has a suggestion other than me going through the entire list of podcasts in those years I would be eternally grateful. IIRC this is before the time the Sunday shows were routinely uploaded to Youtube, and I believe was during the time when you could just speak up and be the next caller rather than reserving a call.
  8. "You choose to eat sugar, which is bad for you, so why not also choose to live a sedentary lifestyle, which is also bad for you?" To answer would likely involve you taking your present life circumstances into consideration. To answer your Devil's Advocate question would reasonably involve the same: "I if do not like the immigrant, do I have the right to use my freedom of association to ostracize him, economically and otherwise?" The answer is No in many parts of the world. Someone owning a gun in no way gives them a legal right to violate your freedom of association, whereas an immigrant does have that legal right.
  9. Well yeah, bullies by definition are not intending to help the other person. Which is why Stef was probably talking about banter, responding to an insult with grace, which is a skill best practiced with people one knows. I heard the podcast, and I didn't get the impression when I listened that Stef was erring on the side of apologizing for abuse.
  10. There were many factors which came together which allowed for Christianity and society to co-evolve - many of which we may not be able to replicate. If Islam were engaged in a full-on war between factions, without outside interference, and without advanced weaponry - MAYBE they would eventually grow tired of fighting each other. But since none of that is happening or can happen, since Pandora's Box of modern weaponry has been given to primitive people, the chances of a similar type of Reformation happening seem incredibly slim to me. At any rate, for those who believe Islam can be reformed, that's a great undertaking and could do a lot to make the world more peaceful. But it needs to happen BEFORE Islam leaves the Middle East, and even then I still would not want to import lots of religious people into what is becoming an increasingly secular society.
  11. Probably my favorite libertarian anthem:https://www.youtube.com/embed/yqR8TDolg0g
  12. Your implication seems to be that we must hold ourselves to higher moral standards than the people around us who regularly praise the use of force against us. We are not obligated to do so. If you believe you must, go for it. If you're so concerned with the abandonment of principles, you should put your focus on criticizing literally every single group other than libertarians.
  13. Powerful performance and lyrics! Great share
  14. As an American raised in government schools, I had no idea why Pat Condell was so focused on Islam back in 2009 when I came across his channel, as well as FreedomainRadio's. The Islamization of Europe has been well hidden from the mainstream news up until recently with the migrant crisis. He is one of the few who has been fighting this battle of ideas since the very beginning, and he would make a fantastic guest for the show.
  15. I found this article quite interesting. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/mar/22/islamic-state-brussels-jihadis The article writer could've summed the whole thing up as "Platitudes stop bombs and guns"
  16. I meant that if a child is in a terrible environment and is essentially serving a prison sentence under their parents, to acknowledge the effect their parents are having on them would potentially be unbearable or lead to the child doing something which would get them in trouble like fighting back against the parents. Even if the acknowledgement was kept private (which it usually is), I know in my case it was easier to just not even think about it than risk living an even more double life than I was already forced to. I'm not sure if I phrased that in the most accurate way originally, but that's what I meant.
  17. Great point. I was also thinking that if someone with a high IQ is punished for the effects of self-knowledge then they may be even more averse to self-knowledge than someone who with a lower IQ exposed to the same environment.
  18. She mentioned that even the riot police back off from the migrants. This should be obvious - the riot police have a hell of a lot more to lose and absolutely nothing to gain from risking their safety to protect the people. This crisis is an absolute tour de force of the failure and inability of state power to keep citizens safe. If 90% of kids are hit in the US, imagine what those numbers are like in the Middle East and Africa, imagine how much more frequent and savage their beatings are, and imagine how accepted all that is there. These are people whose brains and possibly even genetics have been shaped by violence from the very beginning and have never seen a peaceful society in operation. To expect anyone raised in a European society to be able to match that level of aggression, recklessness is quite a stretch - especially when they have every possible incentive to avoid the conflict.
  19. The conflicts in the Middle East only matter to me in any personal sense because the collateral damage is spilling out into Europe and the West. So I don't see why I would support the government spending any of my money or future generations' money on trying to bomb all the bad guys and magically leave the good guys unharmed. Any military action over there is going to result in the degradation of the life of the good people, so anything other than non-intervention is something I can't support. I would sooner support some type of eugenics program than outright bombing them. When I look at the possible solutions in my head to the Middle Eastern problem it seems unsolvable by anyone other than the people who live there. I suppose one thing we could do is donate boxes of condoms but good luck getting dogmatic and R-selected people to reduce their sexual pleasure for long-term gain using a device which probably goes against their religious beliefs anyways.
  20. I listened to the recent call "An Honest Conversation with a Middle Eastern Immigrant" and I was thinking about what he was saying about critical theory, and how the logic of that applies to these widespread sexual assaults. The amount of work the average Middle Eastern migrant young man would have to do in order to have even half the sexual market value of the average native born European man is essentially impossible and I'll try and make that case. Not only would they have to learn the new language and become proficient (requiring an intense dedication to integrate, a staggering amount of time, and a substantial amount of intelligence), not only would they have to unlearn everything they knew about their old cultures' model of sexuality and dating, not only would they have to learn everything they could about the Western worlds' model of sexuality and dating (which is difficult enough for native borns, let alone native borns which have been traumatized to the degree most of these migrants have, let alone native borns which have been traumatized to the degree most of these migrants have AND who have poor language proficiency or are outright illiterate), but they face all the psychological evolutionary pressures of spending all this time which cannot be spent reproducing. When evolutionary pressure was at its highest, humans were not living past their 20's. To fundamentally change or reverse ones reproductive strategy in their 20's means facing and overcoming the fear of not being able to reproduce (something which I've unfortunately experienced firsthand). The fear of not being able to reproduce is essentially the same as the fear of death. Asking or expecting statistically unintelligent people to subconsciously face death and a mind-bending amount of hard work for a potential payoff 10-15 years later is completely insane. And we have to include the fact that these people do not understand evolutionary psychology (or psychology in general) so they probably aren't even consciously aware of why integration would be so massively hard and in many cases impossible. And we have to include the fact that a significant portion of this 10-15 year process would have to be funded by the Europeans willingly, without massive protests and chaos erupting from peoples' resentment about having their wages sucked away from them for an essentially impossible project - Project Integration. This is assuming the economies/currencies don't collapse before that time. And we have to include the fact that even if they did master the language and learn how to mimic the courtship process, their beliefs about freedom, religion, and gender equality are going to be absolutely reprehensible to European women. And we have to include the fact that even after this 10-15 year process, they are still going to be at an massive SMV disadvantage compared to native born Europeans who instead of reworking their entire neural pathways have been building social skills, career skills, and wealth. Basically, in order for these migrants to obtain a reasonable sexual market value it would take them being geniuses (despite probably 20-25% of them being in the learning impaired range of IQ), having the courage of Socrates (despite severe anti-Socratic influence in their host societies for centuries), and having the dedication to make it all happen, knowing it could take 10+ years, all of which they could've spent reproducing by any means necessary (including rape). It's as close to an impossible task as I think you can get in terms of expectations for humans. I could go and on and on. Not a day goes by that this crisis of coercion does not cross my mind, concern, and frighten me - even though I don't live in Europe. It is in my extreme fortune that I live at least a couple of hours from anywhere in California which accepted these migrants and that the US so far has taken in a relatively small proportion of migrants compared to the population of the US as a whole. My heart goes out to everyone in Europe who has had this catastrophe forced onto them now and for generations to come.....
  21. Gotta give them credit for protesting in the most concentrated area of white power-holders - a student library where most kids are tens of thousands in debt.....
  22. "Self-knowledge is about slowing down" - one of the most insightful of Stef's quotes Manipulators tend to want you to rush through your decision making process whenever they're trying to manipulate you into doing something which is in their interest and not in yours. So I'd say feeling rushed when in a woman's presence is a GIANT red flag, especially if you notice correlation between her company and feeling rushed.
  23. I agree. If you have your own unprocessed issues, I don't see how it would be possible for you to work through those in such a chaotic work environment.
  24. To me he's definitely worthy for a show as quality as FDR. I'm not yet sure of his views on hitting children or yelling at them, but I do know that his appearance on FDR would bring a very substantial audience into contact with ideas of peaceful parenting. I do know that he is not afraid to criticize dysfunctional behavior in the black community and call out people in the black community for using double standards, which puts him in a very small group of black men capable of making a big positive impact on statistically the most troubled community in the US. I think whatever faults he may have are outweighed by the amount of good he is doing, based on my limited exposure to his videos (I've probably seen 15 or 20).
  25. "Two months ago, I started hanging out and talking to this girl we'll call Beth. We were physically intimate in some ways" In hindsight, do you regret becoming intimate with her in the first place? Clearly you regret the aftermath of this entire situation - I think it's important to point out that the choice to be intimate with her was the first choice which led to a chain of events which led to you feeling betrayed. This doesn't mean you couldn't have handled the situation after that point better or the other two people couldn't have made more considerate decisions - only that this initial decision was the only one in which you had virtually 100% control of how things played out (you could've broken contact with her at any time before becoming physically intimate in any way). What started out as a simple decision led you into a highly complex situation where you had to depend on 2 other people making decisions which did not hurt you, and which they both failed at doing. I bring all this up to remind you to be conscious about when you're giving your power away to others, so that you never give away power to the wrong people and end up feeling the way you do right now. "No sex or major intimacy because I did not want to engage in any of that at the time, though she did. I think it's fair to say that the trajectory of our relationship was "getting close." We both expressed interest in each other." It seems that you two must have had a conversation wherein you expressed differing desires for how you two would spend your time together, or such conversations were avoided or not fleshed out. Those of us who have traumatic histories unfortunately need to be even more careful than everyone else when it comes to differences in relationships in order to make sure we do not end up being exploited, as we had to bond with people who were diametrically opposed to our best interests. Once it had been established that both of you wanted different things, I think that would have been a good time for you to distance yourself from her and talk over the situation with someone you trusted - a therapist or a wiser, hopefully older, trustworthy friend, or at the very LEAST journal about the entire situation yourself as objectively as you could. You haven't said, but my guess is that she was the one who was doing most of the pursuing and initiating of contact at a time when it was probably in your best interest to slow down. If she wanted to sleep with you and you didn't want to sleep with her (reasons aside), what would the reason for continued contact with her (at least outside of League of Legends) be? In your post, you never gave any background about why you wanted to become intimate with her in the first place, which I think is a problem if it's any indication of how important you think it is to avoiding situation like this in the future. I would argue if you only analyzed one decision in this situation, this would be the most important one to think over BY FAR. As we both know, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. As Stef has said before, self-knowledge is about slowing down. It is often especially important to slow down when others are pressuring you to speed up. If a car salesman kept trying to rush you into buying when you already said you weren't ready, wouldn't that be a red flag that believed they had far more to gain than you from that transaction? The same principle applies to sex and friendships as well. How long after it was established that you two wanted different things did she meet your friend? Was it her idea to meet him or yours?
