This. I've heard people are trying to use bots to automatically do this as well, with certain keywords triggering them but I have not seen any definitive proof of that.

4chan was organic discussion before maybe 2014 but since then it's been astroturfed just as much if not more than Reddit has.

The fact that their images kept all the metadata too. That could have been an oversight, but I'm done attributing things just to incompetence.

This is a bit old posted on June 12, 2020, but thanks for bringing it up.

We believe in a world where everyone is treated equally.

Meaning: We will be treating whites (and sometimes asians) worse than everybody else.

Because racism is a centuries-long systematic problem, the solution must also be long term. Today we are announcing our BIPOC Equality Commitment. This Commitment is a holistic long term response to racism that is so deeply embedded in our nation’s history.

If you do not like a nation's history then leave. There's the whole continent of Africa if you want to help black people.

Look for one that uses uses crypto as well if you can. Even if you're not using the cryptocurrency in payments it means that they're not as entrenched into the banking system.

It's pretty crazy how many people will retweet something like a 17 year old with xe/xir in their profile thinking they have some good mature political opinion. I've made it a habit to check if somebody has signs like that before liking or interacting with stuff.

I suggest reading this news article that Churchill published in a paper in Feb 1920 called "Zionism versus Bolshevism"

And also remember that the Soviet Union was the first country to introduce "hate speech" laws and punish anti-semitism by death.

They should have a count for hospitalizations as well. That's far more important than just getting a positive test.

No from gofundme donations she received 20k, but I don't imagine a guy getting all teary eyed on camera would get equivalent results.

That girl who put glue in her hair ended up getting a lot of attention and a huge payout from it, so of course other people are going to try and hop right on that train too.

I suggest watching Higurashi. The original series first not the new one.

Yeah those comments look exactly the same as astroturfed main subs on reddit. It seems like some of the same groups are now working there too.

Sounds very similar to what National Socialist Germany implemented. except even more in favour of having 4 children since I think in Germany it was just having your house payed off. I don't know if they even had income tax back then though.

Nationality does not mean citizenship. You are born into your nationality, you cannot change it. Your children can have a different nationality depending on who you have them with.

Everything that is "nurture" always has it's roots based in biology, because once again the brain is a biological organ.

"National" means people group, with the Latin root specifically referring to being born. Every identity is ultimately traced back to genetics in some way. To try and avoid genetics and look at simply a shared "spirit" will erode the foundations by which it was made. Culture and society are ultimately expressions of biology, because the brain is an organ.

One of the biggest things I believe is what people define as "god" and when that definition ends up being very different from their experiences they then say "god isn't real" based on everything they learned.

Instead of defining god as something like "the total of all truth in the universe" they define it as "a single being that has power over everything" it doesn't help that there are many personifications of god to help people like rural peasants understand the concept.

Classical Liberalism failed because it lost solidarity. Even now you will have people of all stripes and colors saying "Don't use identity politics!" and even I (and many others here I imagine) fell for it for a long time. This is because politics based on your identity is the only way to create a human organization with significant longevity.

That is by design when you create a regime around the denial of natural truth.

In the end it will, but the question is how much damage will people let happen until then.

If you think that men and women are biologically different, or that white people should not be replaced in their native countries, then they will call you a white supremacist.

If you end up spending all your time saying "No I'm not!!!" then they have narrative control. They don't actually care what you believe in.

The money is not the only factor, it's about controlling the public's actions. Money is only useful if it can get you what you want. You can't outright pay somebody to change their mind. You need to use both rewards and punishments to do that, as well as control their sources of information.

If you create a slave class you end up with not only endless money, but also labour and other material desires. It's one reason that people have been heavily pushing for automation as well.

Yeah, this is really about the domestication of humans. Anybody who think it's about the virus or public safety is well along that process. And if people are too stubborn to get domesticated then they will be replaced by those who will.

The way I see it is that "leftism" as we call it is the belief that man made beliefs are more powerful than natural truth. It doesn't matter what the natural truth is if you can get the vast majority of the public to behave as if it's not true.

It is driven by things like envy and resentment, but also ego and overconfidence. Obviously this house of cards will not last forever, but it may become big enough that when it does fall it takes the whole human race or intelligent life in general with it.

I tried watching it when I was younger but got bored and stopped fairly early in. I did the same with Evangelion though and ended up liking that later so I should probably go back and try giving it another watch.

Considering that it started as a series of novels it's to be expected that it's pretty slow. A different sci-fi book that I would recommend is Dune.

They'll just raise the rent or property taxes to the point that you will get evicted and then let the refugees stay there as free welfare.
