The fact that vampires cannot see themselves in the mirror is a much more significant & accurate representation of evil than I previously appreciated.

This explains a LOT about how many of the people in power currently operate & how they seem to be totally devoid of moral or ethical concerns.

The lack of ability to examine yourself seems like it would naturally translate into a total lack of empathy & a near complete inability to see anything from the perspective of anyone else. So what is good for them at the expense of everyone else is in their mind good for the world.

The Bible refers to vanity over and over. This is a similar thing for me appreciating the carnal solutions of vanity verses the spiritual surrender to the maker.

the vampire mythology is very interesting. as you say, can't look at themselves (although is the meaning the have no ability to, or don't want to see?), survive by sucking the life force out of those around them, can't survive examination in light, always operate in the shadows. pretty much sums up ...

Very confident historical lesson on the origins of introspection... Which ignores human mystic traditions for as long as we can remember. "Know thyself?" Guess not.

Jesus wasn’t introspective? Like what does he think he’s actually saying? I have to think he’s referring to modern psychoanalysis - in which case fair point, but I get what you’re saying Jeff!

The reality is that the US govt just double tapped a school full of little girls in an effort to kill the officers who would respond to try & save their little girls.

This is the same govt that imprisoned & tortured our own military members for telling the truth about past double tap behaviors & the purposeful targeting of children & reporters.

Govt tyrants get away with playing dumb because most people are too afraid to face that they are being ruled by people with consciously evil intentions.

Meh, can buy a machine for 1/3rd the cost of 1 year of a secretary's salary. And with local run models it can answer all sorts of questions, automate all sorts of things, & it will only get better & more capable with time. It can be far better than a secretary. They have no moat.

Unfortunately I think most of the damage has been done. Populations & cultures are mixed. There is no way to undo the situation in most places without some further sort of theft or injustice. And beyond that, 70% of the population got gene editing covid injections.

There is no "right" of collectives to maintain anything, only individuals have rights. Individuals have the right to choose mates who look like them if that is something that concerns them. Individuals can voluntarily build communities & private institutions focused on race & culture if they want. But I would recommend focusing more on cultural alignment than racial features.

The world's primary proplem right now is a number of inbred families who have become literal blood sucking pedophile monsters as a result of their obsession with eugenics & their desire for control over others.

I know multiple people who are black (from the US south, from the Caribbean, from African nations), I know Persians, and I know Arabs who are all almost certainly smarter than you are. I think human beings all have brains that are much larger than we need to survive. The main problem is that most are running the wrong software.

Two of the smartest people in the world are Marilyn vos Savant & Christopher Langan. Marilyn is fairly libertarian, Langan is a crazy authoritarian. Marilyn was raised in a household with hard working parents who gave her a great deal of freedom, Langan was raised by abusive acholholics.

None of that is to suggest that genetics plays no role, but the brain behaves like a muscle. People become stupid to the degree that they refuse to think. I know people who were less intellignet in school who are smarter now & I know people who were very intelligent growing up and who, for whatever reason, seem to have just stopped learning & thinking in a serious way.

If you are raised in a family where self control & rational thought are scarce then brain building is much harder. Similarly if you are raised in a family that eats garbage then you are much more likely to end up with diabetes.

And this is not a baseless aversion to racism. I think it is smart to be extra cautious when dealing with Haitians, Indians, Somalis, and any purple haired or septum pierced person too. But I also know exceptions to at least a couple of those. I am sure there are other races or nationalities or fashion signals that it might be smart to be cautious of too. My position is a recognition that collectivist assumptions, & particularly fixed genetic arguments, are often more blinding & destructive to understanding than any sort of irrational religious belief ever could be.

Those who think they have found an answer in genetics tend to deal with people in predetermined ways. This prevents connections that might challenge said assumtions & weaponizes confirmation bias against all other explanations. I do not think there is much good that can come from collectivist thinking in any form. It all generally leads to bullshit & bad outcomes.

Race is not a primary factor. It's not inborn. It's culture. Culture often divides people along racial lines because people of the same race tend to associate. But I have met libertarians of all races who often seem to feel like outcasts no matter where they are from (because we are generally the minority).

I'm white and I can honestly say that some of the dumbest fucking idiots I have ever met in my life are white leftwingers. They are truly garbage people who will lie to your face & steal from anyone & play the victim in nearly any situation. People are not born that contorted by cowardice, they are socially engineered to be that.

If that was true then you would align yourself with anarcho capitalists & voluntarist libertarians who also want to be free to own things & trade without being taxed and stolen from by political parasites.

If you don't understand that the polical class & their taxes & monetary debasement are the most direct forms of financial oppression & slavery then I would argue that you are the retard.

Israeli pedos & the political class they control operate by imposing taxes & regulations that support corp cronies & crush or prevent small businesses from even getting started.

No one is more obsessed with material things, & the imaginary status they think those things convey, than communists who are willing to kill others because they have "too much."

"Eat the rich" is a slogan rooted in murderous greed & envy.

Socialists, collectivists, & "woke" people in all forms are obsessed with status & power. They are dishonest, back stabbing, & simply cannot be trusted, almost without exception.

The focus on race & social status is basically antithetical to prioritizing truth & merit.

There can be no tolerance of this delusional bullshit if we want any system to survive.
