Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?
-
@CO3 It's a free market. People pay me what they think I am worth. I am doing something meaningful at work. The mass of people are stupid in all industries. The average IQ in the IT industry is pretty high compared to most industries. Georgi is a good example of a smart IT guy.
Eugenics would improve the world. I do not see a good argument against soft forms of eugenics. Whites are also better looking than others, and thusly worth more. On the whole, people who make big financial contribution to the society, are better people in all dimensions than poor people. It would make sense to tax poverty.
-
@Norwegian-Mugabe Yeah I was talking about you not Georgi (the stalinist). Georgi is smart! Your head is empty, apart from an out-of- control disgust reaction that you are too stupid to analyze. It is the essence of sickness.

Every position that is not one that includes hysterical seething hatred of trump is far right now. I don't care if you never voted for trump or never liked him, if you don't make dislike of him you're sole focus in any conversation about politics then you're far right and possibly a Nazi. If you thought russiagate was a scam, you're far right even if you hate trump.
If you're truly a Nazi or even prejudiced in the least you wouldn't be able to have a job in America. America has had some of the strictest anti discrimination laws in the world... for years!!!!
Biden said white supremacy is one of the greatest threats to America. It's not even in the top 100. In fact they need to get fbi plants to escalate a lot of groups on the edges of society.
-
I get your point @Solrig but didn’t the American government give the Nazis jobs after the war?
-
@Peatly Seriously? you get his position? It was complete nonsense. I have no idea what he's even saying.
-
@CO3 I think he is saying that the term “far right” is being used too liberally :- )
-
@Peatly i assume he's not aware of the people this thread is referring to. the ones on twitter that are pretending to believe in Ray Peat's ideas.
There is a point of agreement in that I, as a Marxist, don't think their beliefs differ radically from your average liberal's, but that's a different matter.
-
@CO3 you are the dumbest person on the forum, which goes to explain why you are a marxist. Everyone else managed to understand Solrig's point. We also understand that gib me that is not a viable political solution. I can guarantee that you look like the typical Bearnie fan. You are not handsome and well dressed, which means that you are not as valued by other humans as I am. Everyone loves me, while I enjoy the spoils of capitalism.
-
FWIW I don't think I'm far-right. I'm a libertarian especially when it comes to fractional reserve banking and central banking. Not in the "oh dirty Jews own the banks" kind of way either. But because they cause the boom-bust cycles in the economy. I'm also libertarian on most of the social issues. The LGBTQ stuff is where I tend to draw the line out and become slightly more conservative. If only because I don't believe little children should be indoctrinated in that stuff. As for the adults, I ostensibly have no problem with gays and transgenders.

@CO3 Marx and Lenin didn't have theory or ideas. They just hated successful white Christian people ("reactionaries", "the bourgeoisie") due to their own ethnic and social backgrounds, and wanted a pseudo-intellectual ideology to justify it. Simple as.
-
@Mulloch94 Well said
-
@Norwegian-Mugabe Again, it doesn't really matter but I am. It's sad you care that much about being uglier than me, it doesn't suit a man to think like that. I mean that genuinely, it is very pathetic and makes me sad. Unless you're like 18 it's completely unforgivable as a man to act like that.
It's sad that you guys have such a problem being completely useless and politically castrated. It clearly eats away at you, so you should look into that instead of attempting to argue with your intellectual superiors quite literally in the way a toddler would ("No I am cool everybody likes me. i have the coolest toddler clothes and cool watches! i'm the coolest kid at daycare by far!")

@VehmicJuryman You're on a Jewish-run forum! Get out! We love Jews here!
-
Marx and Lenin were poor thinkers and wicked humans. Some jews are great, many jews are ok, but most jews are neurotic and spiteful. Christianity is the truth, and we should act accordingly.

@Peatly Good!

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days. Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.
-Karl Marx or The Bible? Not like this pharisee has even read one sentence of James

Hi @CO3 you do not have to keep proving that you have an inferior intellect. We are already aware of that.
There are probably hundreds of passages in the Bible that promises proseprity if you follow God. We can thusly assume that wealth creation is a good thing.
There are aslo many stories like Cain and Abel, which suggest that we should accept inequality as a good thing. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
-
You cannot even comprehend the passage I have sent you, reading it for the very first time in your life you just have to deflect to your self-admitted """probable""" assumptions about the Bible! You will never respond to it! It works like a deterrent to the likes of you.
You dare to bring up Cain and Abel! Not with passages of course, as reading it scares those that are too wretched to understand it.
Cain gives yet fears not getting! That is the essence of the story, and it is why God did not accept his offer. Anyone can understand it. His motive for his offering was greed. This is what the passage you quoted is another excellent example of. You shall not covet! That is the essential sin we deal with everyday. Others' labor value is coveted, which is why it is stolen.
Cain was a tiller of the land. What he gave was surplus, while Abel's offering was a young sheep. Cain's intentions were impure spiritually and materially.
You are too much of a coward to reply with any depth, but it's worth trying: what part of the story of Cain and Abel tells you to accept inequality?
