What do you think about this, /b/?

Is it logically and morally sound to give the less fortunate more attention and advantages simply because they are less fortunate?

In other words: Is equality (left) or equity (right) a better system?

Furthermore, is one of them inherently better than the other?

equity is an erosive factor of the quality for the human race.
The strongest and fittest have to survive to evolve a stronger race. Since we are try to pull the weaker through we damage our own evolution.
>>
>>707825422
The true strong ones are the people that can survive in the wilderness by themselves with no outside help, that is what the strong and the fit do.
>>
>>707825073
The solution is clear: tear the fence down. Removes unnecessary box expenditure and the fence material can be re-purposed into more baseball bats thus increasing overall utility.
>>
>>707825556
So like 4% of today's human population? That's good that's about what it was in antiquity
>>
>>707825639
I'm just saying, going off of the strongest and fittest thing, that's what it would be, and that's what the argument is based around. The ability to survive in harsh conditions long enough to matter.
>>
>>707825803
But that's not what "strongest and fittest" means at this stage in humanity.
>>
>>707825073
I think this is a good time to define symbols in the image. What does being able to see the bb game mean? What does the fence mean? What do the different heights mean? And the boxes?
>>
>>707825880
No, so it doesn't apply to humans anymore then. At least the way Darwin was putting it doesn't apply anymore.
>>
>>707825073
I think they should buy tickets instead of watching bootleg like a bunch of fucking niggers.

>>707825422
>The strongest and fittest have to survive to evolve a stronger race.

Yeah because in country with the less redistribution of wealth via public policy it's the people with higher incomes who have lots of offspring, not the poor ! Right ?
>>
>>707825803
Not really, it's about your relative genetic contribution to the next generation(s).
11-kids-Shaniqua is probably fitter than any survivalist, CEO or professor out there.
>>
>>
>>707825073
That is not justice, that is not buying a fckn ticket.
>>
>>707825945
being able to see the baseball game would probably mean living a decent life, the fence is the living expense, the heights are different classes/races of people or simply just the two sexes, and the boxes are how society is treating those people. The first image has them all getting the same, whereas the second image is giving less to the class/race or sex with the most and more to the one with less, and the one that was doing just fine anyway, well they're still doing just fine so probably didn't care either way.
>>
>>707826068
This pretty much sums up why social Darwinists get BTFO for trying to bastardize evolutionary theory so poorly.
>>
>>707825372
Because it's not justice, they're watching without buying a ticket.

I mean I wouldn't go so far as to call them thieves but ffs.

Justice would be all three of them niggers caught a homer with their noses.
>>
>>707825073
Well I'd say using boxes to watch a fucking baseball game everyone else paid for is bullshit.
>>
>>707825073
It's not a good metaphor. The tall kid has no reason to stand on a box. Arguably it could make his viewing experience less enjoyable.

To answer your question, I believe it is logically and morally sound to give special attention to the less fortunate, but it is not logically and morally sound to force others to do so.
>>
>>707825880
At "this stage in humanity" the argument doesn't even apply, even if we were to apply it to the disabled receiving equity, their situation doesn't automatically make them useless members of society.

Most of them won't even breed, so it's not as if they're even impacting evolution.

Same goes to those burdened by the unfortunate circumstances of their birth (IE born to a poor family, with no opportunities) receiving equity. The only difference is they'll probably end up having mediocre kids too, but they'll at least have more opportunities than those that came before them and potentially offer something to our race / society as a whole.

>>707826398
I wasn't talking about disabilities.

I meant that your ability to survive in the wilderness is no longer an adequate way of accessing you being fit or unfit for carrying on the human race.

Note: This does not mean it's okay to be physically unfit or unhealthy. Just that the wilderness survival part is no longer valid. For the parts of the world that matter, at least. Apocalypse scenario not withstanding.
>>
This image is a loaded statement.

It's meant to make niggers feel like they are valid and that even though they are equal, they still think they are the little man. Half of these niggers never put their fucking nose in a book and don't realize how much of a little man they were. They grew up, they were served what this image was deemed as "justice" and now they want more because they still think they are the little man when they have grown to be the same size as everyone else.

This is just a knee jerk reaction that is supposed to be taken in the moment of things but given any ounce of foresight, you can see that there is no little man anymore. Everyone is equal and the same height, but everyone who was "short" at one time demands more height because they got used to their height and don't realize at some point life is just unfair and likes getting boosted higher and higher.
>>
>>707825073
>simply because they are less fortunate?

Redistribution of wealth isn't something that has been implemented out of charity but to achieve better result in economical growth and social peace.

The cost of not redistributing enough for the poorest to have access to their basic needs is greater than the cost of this redistribution

I'm not saying redistribution is always a good thing, it can also be done poorly, or overdone.

But maintaining the poorest afloat is good for the overall economy.
>>
>>707826068
This motherfucker right here. Everyone brings up evolution to say "fuck the poor", but by Darwin's own definition of biological fitness today's poor, especially minorities in general, are the fittest.
>>
>>707825372
why are you determining equality with = number of boxes? that sounds like communism

fucking commie

here in america we try to equalize available opportunities every can progress with effort.
>>
Let's pick another example:

You get mugged by a poorfag on the verge of starvation. He gets arrested and your money recovered by the cops.

Equality means your money is shared between you and the mugger 50/50

Justice means you get your money back.

What would you choose?
>>
>>707826625
I think I agree with that.

Equity for the sake of actual meaningful and tangible progress is good, but equity for the sake of equity can have negative consequences.

Unless I misinterpreted what you said.
>>
>>707825073
Sjw's would have you believe that the pic on the right is correct because it "feels" better. Of course. No one wants to see the little guy suffer.

The real picture would be a black sitting on his box, complaining that he can't see, instead of just standing up like the other two. And the sjw's idea of justice would be the black sitting on two boxes, watching the game while the others stand.

Fuck social justice.

I mean I guess it's nice that you wanna help out folk you think are getting shafted but how do we measure who's getting shafted the most and how do we measure how much help they vs other people who might not need as much help as others?

Like, who the fuck is in charge of measuring and applying metrics here? This gross oversimplification only just barely works (not fucking really, it's kind of retarded) because it's brain dead obvious which one needs what.

What if there are only 2 boxes?
What if there are still 3 boxes but they're small enough that not even all 3 of them is enough for the shortest guy to see over the fence?
Whos responsibility is it to go hunt down more boxes? The dude who can see over the fence? Is he not allowed to watch just because the shortfags can't see? Do we just give the boxes to the second shortest guy so he can see and tell the shortest to fuck off?

This is a bullshit system because everyone thinks they're the shortest guy or they know exactly who the shortest guy is and that any argument to the contrary is just not wanting to help the shortest guy.

Tl;dr it's dumb.

Not the same guy, but who said the poor were the strongest? Most people who inheret wealth never go on to do anything of value. Best they do die off.

The strong work for what they get, and are happy to do so. The weak have come to expect the strong to assist them. The sooner we kick non-contributors to the curb and stop trying to help career charity cases, the better off we'll be.
>>
>>707825073
The problem here is that the little guy can help being short. If you apply this to all facets of life you end up treating people unfairly. Imagine if their heights represented the amount they each contributed to society. The middle guy is an average worker keeps himself to himself and supports his family. The tall guy is business owner, not talking the CEO of some bank, but a family business. He employs the middle guy, probably gives generously to charity, his kids will get good educations and become doctors and scientists and shit and they too will make something of themselves. The short guy is on welfare, is lazy, (not saying all those on welfare are, sometimes you hit hard times) but this guy consistently neglects to find a job, has kids but doesn't see them or support them and is a general drain on the society he lives in, idk throw in some petty crime too. The Business owner deserves to be where he is, he worked for it. The middle mans existence relies on the existence of the jobs the business owner creates and repays the business owner with hard work. The Short guy is useless and contributes nothing. so supporting them all to the point where they become equal is ridiculous. I'm not saying fuck poor people, if someone is genuinely disenfranchised by factors out of their control then sure help them get back on to their feet. But there shouldn't be equity of outcome because that means that you have removed all reward for good competition.

>>707826182
I think this is a good interpretation in favor of "Justice". I think equality would be palatable if interpreted as such: Three differing incomes, game is something that is a luxury/luxuries but by no means necessary for survival or even a decent life. Fence is that income level where those luxuries become readily available. Boxes are kind of a toss up because I don't want to say basic living income that ensures that everyone has an ensured standard of living. Maybe just representative of equal opportunity/rights? Bleh
>>
>>707826842
i think you interpreted right, but i'm not targeting an absolute equity where everyone would have the same access to wealth.

I'm just saying that some form of equity on some important point is good for everyone ( including the people giving the money).

We can debate what are these important point and how far equity should go.

But for example, it's obvious when it comes to education ; we need a workforce with a certain level of qualification to have a thriving economy.

If you invest as much money in education for everyone, you'll invest too much on people like you and me ( who have been reading books by themselves and are able to learn by themselves a lot, or through their family) and this money is going to be wasted. And you will not spend enough ressource on educating people from shitty background, so they don't reach a level of qualification that make them employable, hence wasting all the money you've invested in their education
>>
>>707825073
You're picture is an assumption of what equality and justice is.
Its assumptions are oversimplifications, and therefore false.

Now to my opinion to your questions:

>Is it logically and morally sound to give the less fortunate more attention and advantages simply because they are less fortunate?
Only IF the resources are reasonably available...
You know what? Actually discredit my answers to this and the following questions. I'm currently procrastinating from studying Adam Smith... The damn books is in old English. It's so painful to read.


>In other words: Is equality (left) or equity (right) a better system?
Adam Smith is better than me.

>Furthermore, is one of them inherently better than the other?
Adam Smith is cool.

And that's why the first image is a good metaphore : if you give a crate to the tall guy you are wasting a crate because he's already achieving the goal you set when you decide to give crates to people.

Giving one crate to the small guy is as much as a waste of ressource because he won't achieve the goal you've set, so the crate is useless.

In the first pic, you have 3 useless crates that you have given to people out of your crate stock for nothing.

The second pic represent not a more just system, but a more efficient system where there is no waste of crates
>>
>>707825073
the best sytem is a system of equality, where everyone is given the same chance. additively there should be a baseline for people so they don't starve or have to turn to crime to survive. law should be enforced strongly, but not instantly drawing guns like amerofags do.

also in the system people should have a mindset that they're part of this society, and that they should help it, not bring it down.

or alternatively, decrease human population by 90% and just go back to olden days hunting gathering.

There are three kinds of people, the government, the wealthy, and da poor. Now should we give da poor da money is a good question, but you can't do it by percentage, because tell just quite there jobs to make the same amount of money.

Justice is them paying for a ticket to see the game, just like everyone inside the fence. Equality would be them all having a chance to buy that ticket. But we know from real life that tickets sell out and some people don't even have money for the ticket. Equality doesn't exist. Any push for equality creates more inequality than it ever destroys.

not the strong, the "fittest"
And fittest by Darwins definition means those who will generate the most offspring and survive.

This is something many people get wrong: It's not about strength and weakness, it's about the ability to adapt and survive long enough to procreate.
Someone who is strong and intelligent might as well be seen as not fit to survive, given the circumstances. In todays world, as the other anon has said, it's more about the number of offsprings because natural selection was pretty much outdone by technology

It's like saying that people should, by law, get a piece of my paycheck while I do all the work. That makes no sense. I can choose to give people something, as opposed to being forced to.

We have taxes for things like that, and they take out huge chunks of whatever we make already. Why should one be forced to be overtly charitable?

IM not a fucking anarchist im pretty centrist with a tendency to left (tbh i dont even like to be put ina group, and i rarly talk about politics anyways. It is pretty simple once you understand humanity. It doesnt matter if you call me anarchist or not, that is the truth how society works, people won't accept a shitty life all the time, at some point, even if it is hundrets of years, those who are beeing stepped on will raise for same opportunities. It tells you alot about a society, how it treats it weakest members. That is the reason why the social wellfare countries here in Europe, have a lot higher satisfaction and happiness than in the us. (at least those who realise the concept). You cant just kill the weak, or the scapegoats That never worked, and will never work.

Cooperatism,neoliberalism and shit are fantasies of fucked up psychopaths trying to convince people of a system that secretly lkills off people and makes them suffer. Capitalism is needed of course for exchange, but there has to be a healthy balance between development and wellfare, because even the weakest people can give birth to a mozart or einstein some day.

Oh goody . "nigger" talk. Blacks have only had something approaching functional equality for about 30 years. There were still cases in the 70s and 80s enforcing the civil rights legislation passed ten to twenty years earlier. So you're looking at one and a half generations raised in something roughly equal to whites, and now we're seeing black college attendance rising, black high school graduation rising. In another 50 years, it'll be pretty close to parity. That's the actual justice. They finally have something close to full equality of opportunity, but you have to remember they're starting from a place of far less. Housing, in particular, is so completely fucked for blacks, because of the US Gov't. When GIs came back from WW2 and Korea, whites were given tons of housing aid through various federal gov't programs, and blacks were denied and pushed back into tenements and housing projects, which engendered a lot of the cultural problems we still see in the black community. Lack of agency and ownership led to the apathy about their communities, among other problems. Broken windows and more also fall into that. Your bigoted attitude is going to be entirely without legs to stand on in another twenty years, you're on your way out the door, man.

Lets dissect that picture first

Equality should be defined in terms of relevant factors. In this picture the relevant factor isnt how many boxes each person has, its how much of the game they can see. The boxes are largely irrelevant. They're equal in number of boxes but not in how much of the game they can see. Presumably they want to see the game not stand on x amount of boxes. In this way the picture gives an unfair representation of egalitarianism (equality).

The morally relevant factor in helping the underprivileged isnt how much thought or time or even resources goes to them compared to the better off, its overall welfare. The goal is to reduce disparity in welfare. Your thoughts about equity (right) achieve this but so does equality when based on the relevant factor (welfare) instead of an arbitrary secondary characteristic such as material or resources.

Well there is your problem right there.
You failed to define what that is and who gets to decide whether a person is living one or not.

That is why OP's image works. It isn't about ball games or buying tickets, or who provides the boxes. It is about equality and justice INDEPENDENT of circumstance.

>>707827127
Except your own chart shows one of the problems with using crime statistics - liquor laws and native tribes.

Those laws get enforced in totally biased ways .Jethro drunk behind his pickup gets drunk-tanked off the record and sent home in the morning, Thomas walking dove gets arrested and fined and sent back to the rez. The Dakotas are full of this bullshit.

Crime stats only 'prove' as much as they can about the arrests actually made, and bias in enforcement's very well known. Cops target minorities for ticket stacking in traffic offenses, etc.

If that were true, and it's not, it'd still be easily attributed to the selective breeding by white slaveowners, meaning we'd have even more moral imperative to clean up our own mess.
>>
>>707838433
And Korea was 60, and Civil Rights was 50, and the cases were still going into the 80s, and the cultural entrenchment of NOT giving blacks equal housing opportunity went right through the Keating Five and S&L Crisis. I'm sorry you don't know how pervasive anti-black public policy was in America for 200 years, but it's not surprising - we whites don't much like facing our own moral failings as regards this nation we love so much, because it gave us so much.

The fact is, most people who need a little help aren't just lazy scum bags. Social safety nets pay for themselves and provide benefits that reach far beyond the recipients. A kid raised in a better environment is more likely to grow up to be a contributing member of society and not a criminal. Promoting upward mobility pays dividends.
That's partly why conservative states are practicaly third world countries.

The problem with conservatives is you guys get too caught up on what's fair and not what works. I don't give a shit how fair it is for poor people to get free shit if it makes my community better.

NO one points out that only the tall guy loses a box, and he STILL can see the game, he never needed a box.

Instead, they assume the three white guys in the cartoon are actually black, and it all goes to racism. Which is fun to talk about, but...

The short guy gets ONE box... people in this thread screaming about the middle guy's rights, ignoring that it's literally about taxing the wealthy, and it's still more equity and equality to take from those who literally don't need it, to give to those who do.

Diminishing utility of the dollar, folks.

The seats need to be cleaned

The bathrooms. The halls. The food and more

That's why you pay for shit. Because someone is either giving you something or did something before

If you're familiar at all with the projections of labor demand in the future, human labor is slowly going the way of the of dodo. Efficiency and technological replacement reduce the value of the remaining jobs. Constant immigration from 3rd world countries like anything South of the Rio Grande further reduces the value of labor to the point that the US needs to either consider a complete low-tier social system or a basic minimum income.

Of course, once that's created, every useless 3rd world shitstain will immigrate here and start pumping out litters of 8 baby shitstains.

We're doomed either way, but at least we won't be the ones turning this country into a bad Dickens novel while making 100 white guys filthy rich.

If you satisfy the left, then the right will occur out of goodness and kindness. Forcing the right is like subsidizing kindness. It only makes the tall kid resentful of the short kid, in turn breaking down the relationship among the classes.
In other words: The tall kid should feel fulfilled enough, that he doesn't mind giving up his box to the small kid. But by taking the tall kid's box away, you cultivate resentment in him, and entitlement in the short kid.

So the tall guy giving his box to the little guy represents a person who is more "advantaged" helping others who are not so "advantaged." Idk about you guys but I personally wouldn't mind being the tall guy giving my box to help the little guy. With that being said, I don't think the term "equality" is used appropriately here, because what I see being represented here is an act of selflessness and kindness instead of equality. I still believe we, as pepole, have a caring heart for others and especially those who are at not advantaged.

If you gave everyone 100 grand with compounding interest, and told them to pay it back ASAP, some would never do it, others would do it slowly, and some would do it quickly.

The real question here is who this should apply to. The pic refers to a disadvantage that is absolute and undeniable as well as something that cannot be changed. In this regard, I think justice is the correct answer.

However, if it is about things that are neither absolute, nor undeniable or unchangeable, then equality fuck yeah!

>>707839411
Your argument is to give people free shit so they don't resort to crime.

Public acts 'can' work, but they usually don't, and giving people money to pay for their shit is a hand out and not a hand up.

The problem is, that there are people out there that could be standing up and looking at the fence, but are sitting down and wanting more boxes to sit on.

That creates spite and hatred and makes people hold onto their boxes.

Not fucking the lazy fatass who repulses you is survival of the fittest.

You're hard wired to take the best care of your babies, create a positive environment for them through resource acquisition, and you're also hard wired to make healthy babies who will succeed in life by finding partners who you think are smart, funny, attractive, ect.

All that shit is for making babies, sex and the reasons you do it.... because it convinced your ancestors to make you and you inherited those desires.

How it should be is that there is a stack if boxes, if a someone wants one to stand on, they go and get it themselves. It isn't about justice or equality. It's about working towards something you want. Yes there are exceptions but overall you put effort in to get something out. Our society doesn't work that way anymore. Now it's cry until someone does it for you.

Maybe the picture's labeling is incorrect. "Justice" could easily mean the littlest one had 2 crates, while the tallest didn't and he wasn't happy (regardless of needs), so he took it.

That could be justice.

"Equality" could mean the ability for them all to see. Simple as that.

Pic related?

>>707853407
Yes. Seeing how there is no blade inside anyway.
>>
>>707853407
I feel that justice would be everyone sitting on boxes and looking through holes in the fence so they didn't have to stand up.

Further justice would be paying for tickets so that the owner can recoup his game expenses.

Even further justice beyond that would be all of them playing baseball for the fun of it instead of watching others play for money.

I like your first two ideas for sure. Quite creative.

People play for fun, while some people play hard to make a living while doing what they enjoy. Taking that away would force more people to do jobs they don't like for money. Would that be justice?

Don't you mean point a gun to his head and demand he works or else he'll be killed? And even if he does work, he doesn't get to keep anything he produces except what the party says he can have?

If someone has no motivation, they won't produce anything. Let them fail. Demanding people work for your sake is evil, and treats human beings as sacrificial animals, who only live for the sake of others.
>>
>>707854744
baseball players are a good example because they literally make millions and millions of dollars and enjoy very long careers with only moderate threat of injury.

I'm fine with it because it's capitalism, but they're not worth what they're paid.... There are people who do dangerous life threatening work out there that make FAR less. Justice would be paying people for what they're worth and not because they enjoy what they do.
>>
I know I am one of the people who would have great difficulty if there wasn't for the social support I get like free healthcare. But I think letting people like me die makes kind of sense.

I am all for helping out the less fortunate, but I think there is a limit to that. If you belong to a family that is unemployed for several generations you deserve help to get an education, not to repopulate and produce unemployed kids.

Also, evolution should continue. Now it doesn't because everyone survives and the stupider the more kids he has. We will continue to have people with diabetes, food allergie and intolerances, retarded people etc. We will one day have to stop this.

I will continue to try to have kids, but I am not sure I shouldn't be one of the people who should just die.

>They're not worth what they're paid
Except they are, that's how their wage is determined. They're paid so much because the team owners know that the athlete is talented enough to draw large crowds and millions and millions of dollars to him. If you have someone who can bring in so much money for you, you have to pay him well, or else some other team owner will pay him more, and get his talent on his team.

Justice in this case, would be to charge less for games instead of price jacking tickets and food so you can make assloads of money and turning the whole sport into a cash cow.

It's true that the ad's and money thrown around are part of the sports growth too though, and I'm not saying it would be what is if things were done differently.

We're just talking about what is just, and that's communism.... which kind of sucks.....

I actually agree with your point of view on most of this, I'm just being realistic and saying that someone is being screwed no matter how you put it so it's not just.

>>707855365

I get where both of you are coming from. Picture a world where one isn't paid based off of entertainment value, but whether how much they contribute to the world in which we live in.

In theory that would definitely work, but the problem is "contribute" is an opinion. Unless everything can be defined and everyone agrees on something, it's not possible to make that theory happen.

Therefore, we have baseball players making millions while people who save lives make far less. Is this fair? Well people who took the jobs knew what the pay was like and still did it, so is it unfair?

Because it can be seen two different ways, can it ever really be seen as fair?

yes Lefties are completely against self discipline, like the uneducated republican voters. There are shitheads on both sides, the difference is the Republican basic idea is that they think every person knows how to act responsibly and shd be allowed to act like it, while democrats know the truth that there are idiotic faggots like you out there that shouldnt be in place to decide for the masses. Yes Democrats want to "cut" your freedom so others can liv eit out, the question is how strong your psychopathic/apathic/sociopathic personality traits are that you don't care about others, except your own. If people like you acted like that in an untouched african or rainforest tribe, they'd probably kill you for your poisonous lifestyle. Selfish prick

There's no such thing as justice, nor equality in a non-mathematical sense. People will never be equal because they're not mathematical constructs. Justice is subjective. Equality among things that, by their very nature, will never be mathematically equal is also subjective. Your picture demonstrates how both concepts are subjective. Is the short kid equal to the tall kid because they each have one box? That's ridiculous, he's still short, that's not equality. Is the short kid getting 2 boxes (presumably taking one from the tall kid) so he can stand as high as the tall kid justice? No, he has 2 boxes and the tall kid has none. Justice and equality are just meaningless words used to manipulate people into doing what they want. "Do the right thing," really means, "Do what I say."

>is one of them inherently better than the other
Depends on how you define "inherently." If you mean in some arbitrary moral way, no, neither is better than the other. They are also both extremes and something in between is better in a utilitarian, conducive-to-stable-society way.

As for which extreme is "better" than the other, I think it's obvious that capitalism, even if "unfair," is a far, FAR better allocator of resources than communism. No doubt someone will point out that communism != socialism, but you have to design your systems with the flaws of human nature in mind. If you expect humans to change and be good worker bees just to service your ideals, you're going to be disappointed.

People get caught up too much with useless concepts. Things like equality and justice are first world problems. Even the poorest among us, the homeless, the jobless, can beg and eat their fill of the dollar menu at McDonalds. People in truly poor countries are more concerned with absolute concepts like "survival."

Im with you here. I had dyslexia, and would have qualified for 25% extra time in exams and lenient marking on course work. But i never took those options and in my first year of Uni was tough, i got pulled up on spelling errors that a 10 year old would make and lost marks. I would end up not completing exams because i have a slow writing speed. By second year this had all changed, and by third year I was finishing exams before most other students and my vocabulary had expanded hugely.

Believing in equality is just childish, no humam can ever be equal.
Look at the picture, everyone has a box (left picture), so all stand equal, it is not your problem that some kid is smaller than you, therefore, you should not be obligated to sacrifice your box so he can watch the game.
However, if YOU WANT to give him the box, it's your decision and you are free to do so, but you should not be obligated to help those in disadvantage.

If the world was fine with it, we'd be where we are right now. Guess mission accomplished?

Race and being female isn't something one can 'step out of,' however, quitting a job is. One isn't born into a job, but one is born into their gender and race. If the world doesn't like your gender and or race, one must deal with it. That in itself is a problem as long as it's seen as a problem. Since it's seen as a problem to groups, it's a problem. Once no one sees it as an issue, it's not. That's not just for that matter, but for everything. It's one of the few things that can be defined.

i don't think it's planned at all.

i just think human beings just do things. conditions are already set. the future is happening one way or the othher. we just do. genetically, biologically, in response to the system changing, in anticipation of future events.

like all the other animals.

and then, unique to humans, we look for explanations of why we do things. we force a haphazard system of beliefs onto our own pre-set conditional responses.
>>
>>707858944
a certain % of people are weak prey and a certain % of people are predatory. that has always been the case. the difference now is that the intenet is forcing us into an even more narrow view of our haphazard forced belief systems.it isn't fitting for everyone any more. it's too narrow.

Dude believe me, i met a sociologist, social engineering is a thing. Just find someone with some certain personality traits + beeing easily influenced + some money and you can get people to go in the direction you want them to go. I took antidepressants, and a NLP programmer actually tryed me to implant some neoliberal stuff in me and bought me youtube equipment and stuff, i stopped antidepressants early enough and was able to withstand the programming, the good part about it he also helped me quit smoking. But yea it is fucking easy to programm people into things. If i would have taken Antidepressants I'd have ended up as some narcisstic stupid little youtube letsplayer, or some Extreme leftist protestant. I managed to stay at the center.
