In The Moral Landscape he literally advocates for pumping people's brains full of "pleasurable endorphins" associated with altruism, if such a thing were possible.
He also repeatedly says that society should be governed by "moral experts" who decide what is best for the collective good, then make and enforce laws accordingly. That goes well beyond even WEF-style technocracy.
One of the only things I've ever read by Noam Chomsky that I actually found agreeable was his part in an e-mail exchange between himself and Harris, where Harris defends Bill Clinton's bombing of a Sudanese hospital with civilians still inside of it, based on faulty intelligence that it was being used to make bio-weapons. As soon as Chomsky published that exchange, Harris threw a tantrum and started whining that it was private correspondence and he never agreed to make it public, even though in the e-mail exchange, he agreed to Chomsky's stated intention to publish it. He was just butthurt because he got destroyed in the debate and it made him look bad.
The man is an outright totalitarian, and always has been. The kind of totalitarian that only someone who never emotionally matured past their adolescence can be. He thinks he has all then answers and he genuinely believes he knows better how to manage the lives of billions of people if we would just let him make all of our decisions for us. The fact that he's too stupid to realize how insane that is only further undermines whatever good he might do. He's a mental pygmy who makes his living by sounding smarter than he is.
Steer clear of Turkish soap operas though.
Didn't you realize Numenor was based on Wakanda? What do you mean LoTR came first?
Okay. If they don't want it, that's fine. Nuclear power plant should be attached to separate power grids that only power white people's homes. Problem solved.
If it had been a Paki teenager with a stab wound, they would have shown right up.
È viecchio sulo chi more.
You're not old til you're dead.
His frustration with the doomsaying is justified. It's half edgy blackpill purists who refuse to see the forest through the trees, and the other half of it is a coordinated psyop designed to egg those people on.
Even before Trump he was a lunatic. Fully committed to act utilitarianism as a societal remedy. The kind of social engineering he advocated for in The End of Faith would give even the WEF pause.
Music, too, belongs to the cause, Comrade! Art is not art unless it serves the goals of the Internationale! No one should be free to enjoy things without being reminded of the struggle!
lol @ the stormfags eating each other in this thread like the leftists they are.
It seems likely that ad many as 30% of the people in England aren't English.
The greatest civilization in the history of the world, and it's been undone in two decades.
Yeah I'm sure that kid has a big heart.
I really hope she finds out sometime about this guy
Yeah, not having women around will do that. Doesn't change anything I've said.
Also there wasn't anywhere near as much of that kind of thing in Classical Greece as most people these days seem to believe.
I wasn't making a value judgement. Although the cultural backlash against the corporate-driven "queer culture" phenomenon is growing. The silent majority of just-want-to-be-left-alone gays should be aware that their silence will not save them if the pendulum swings too far the other way.
It's pretty well-established in cognitive and behavioral science. Every study I've seen of both social trends and neurological analysis shows that women will change their sexual behaviour based on any number of social and material factors. With men, though, it's pretty much unchangeable.
There is a majority who want nothing to do with the degeneracy of corporatized "gay culture," but wanting to be left alone means they generally keep quiet about it just to make things easier.
No it doesn't. Men are hard-wired one way or the other. Women's sexual appetites are much more variable, but either a man is straight or he's gay, and either way there is no changing it. A gay man can spend his whole life pretending to be attracted to women. He might even genuinely fall in love with a woman. But he will always be alienated from himself.
All you need to do is tell them that those nasty grown-up conservatives don't want them doing it.
And how much GDP did we lose because of the fucking lockdowns you cheered for you syphilitic red-light cunts?
Hao! Ooh yes. Big chief have big dick.
Let me again remind everyone that many if not most of the women complaining about being censored on the troon issue were, just a few years ago, among the most ardent cheerleaders for the censorship policies that are currently being used against them.
So Ikea pulled out of Russia, but they're OK with this.
And all it took was the woke mob going after his precious feminists. Simp.
Maybe it's just the petty, adolescent part of my own personality, which might make me a bit of a hypocrite, but I get a visceral, cathartic pleasure from seeing people like Harris publicly humiliated. I don't want to keep him around to use as a recruiting tool. Frankly, even the rational side of me thinks he'd be more effective at that when he's reduced to a sputtering, stuttering, incoherent shambles, clinging desperately to his hagiographic self-image even as he's forced to acknowledge how wrong and stupid he is.
