Hello disingenuous nigger. You seem to have taken up a strange illogical reddit position.

You are implying that OP, because he dislikes something is "cynical". This is retarded and so are you.
Much more cynical than having a justified distaste for retardation is typing in all lower caps and asking cute little rhetorical "gotcha" questions that are supposed to show how smart, detached and above us all you are. Now, if you please - kill yourself.

> in Hollywood and in government, in certain “temples” and synagogues, as well as in academia and the business world.

>While there is undoubtedly a lot of plain-old hatred and bigotry out there, if you examine the bulk of anti-Semitism today, it is often an attack not on the average well-meaning and God-fearing Jew, but on the Erev Rav. The problem is that the anti-Semite is unable to differentiate between Jews at all, so the rage is displaced upon the wrong people. This is why it is imperative for Jews ourselves to confront the Erev Rav and oppose them as much as possible. It is vital to dissociate from any supposed “Jewish” organization that is advocating on behalf of Erev Rav ideas, those rooted in sexual immorality and idolatry, assimilation and godlessness, hedonism and materialism. (It is worth remembering the words of our Sages in Sotah 11b that in ancient Egypt—the birthplace of the Erev Rav—they would wickedly make “men do female tasks and women do male tasks”.)

Yes we are, you arrogant narcissist with delusions of grandeur. You are nothing special. You are just another species in a long line of mammals (and primates), and there's nothing wrong with that. You don't have to be some "chosen people" or "created in god's image" for your life to matter and have meaning. Have some humility and self-awareness. You were not "created" as the masters of earth with everything else put here for your indulgence. You evolved out of the life forms that already existed here, and are a part of this web of life.

Not really. It's like coming out of "the sun rises in the east". Evolution is a universal truth. Everything evolves. Whether it's rocks, rivers, cultures, languages, civilizations, or life itself. Survival of the fittest is the law of reality itself, not just life. Anything that fits the current conditions the best, is "selected" to survive. The rest die out. The only people who refuse to accept this simple, straightforward fact are the ones who are stubbornly clinging to some ideology because they wasted all their life serving it.

The Getes considered themselves immortal. They believed that the passage to the world from down below, far from lead them to birth or to a condition of suffering, took them to the glorious and celestial abodes of Xalmoxis. This dogma is purely Aryan.

Wanted to share, I think it gives a different perspective on the human species. Yeah of course some were until very recent eras, until today even primitive ooga boogas drinking booze and fucking women. Others, a little bit more intelligent, knew how to make the best material outcomes with the resources that they had and the people they could exploit. The first place in the pedestal is taken by the Getes, the Germanics, all these magnificent races that are slowly withering away in an ocean of ooga boogas and Jews.

Great post. Ive always felt the same, like why should it matter that we arent some chosen people or created in God's image? Life is far more interesting when you learn that we are not special among the animal kingdom, and that we are a part of the beauty of all nature.

Im starting to learn in life is that Christians are some of the most narcissistic people, and their whole religion is just a way to signal moral superiority towards other humans, thus giving them a sexual/ reproductive advantage against non-Christian people. Its a totally disingenous repdroductive strategy, except in maybe a few lunatic fringe cases of people who are truly schizophrenic.

People have a hard time accepting that Harari and his detractors are simultaneously right about everything. Just because they have a different perspective doesn't mean that truth doesn't transcend dichotomies. The sublime synthesis reigns absolute and non-dual, forever.

But you realize that all of this is entirely from the perception of a human that has no concept of a level of intelligence above itself. Basically you're the smartest thing on your planet so you're just assuming that the gap between you and the next smartest thing must be massive. You're looking at a set of data and assuming it must be complete because you're not capable of gathering any more. And you're only allowed to be this arrogant because you've been swimming in your small pond uncontested for thousands of years, and have basically never once been knocked down a peg.

The only people who "like this shit" are rationalist bugs who will settle with humanistic and scientific explanations without striving for something greater. Who cares about reality and truth when all that people want is a comforting little illusion to take away their uncomfortable ambitions. Grand narratives and soulful myths are too incandescent and hot for the modern habituated souls to handle ; our stainless steel age produces only these reasonable characterizations of reality, fit for soulless men who will look no further

No contrarian-kun, I'm comparing to the variations in intelligence among other species. E.g. a crow is smarter than a tit, and a dolphin is smarter than a tuna, and a chimp is smarter than a cat, but all of these differences are tiny compared to the gap between us and any other animal.
