>Like intensely retarded to complain about people who care about justice.
SJWs are some of the most obnoxious political fanatics today. But of course, I must be dead in the head for expressing distaste for people who bitch in my face for being white and unwilling to apologize for it

>>9308949
>for being white and unwilling to apologize for it
But why? Man, look. Just apologize and then pay reparations. Just make a list of every ethnic group that white people have fucked over and then just pay all of them reparations. After you do that, social justice ends. It's gone. It accomplished it's goal and that's it.

I tell this to you as a PoC, just pay the reparations. Because our goal is to eventually take over your political system and then not only take all of your wealth, but also genocide your people 100%. Don't you think it would be best to just pay reparations? Just come on man. White people, sell all of your assets and then give them to us. You will start from 0 but at least you'll live.

And I say this because I do not like killing. It is bad. But our reparations are a birthright. If you do not pay up then we will have to take them by force.

>>9308975
It's sad how close this is to the perspective that they actually have.

>>9308975
kek, you had me convinced for a moment

>>9309042
>>9309037
Hey if you don't want to believe me then that's fine. I'm a simple man, I do not care. But at least take the message seriousy. Just pay the reparations and lets be done with it.

On our side the issue is already settled. Every PoC accepts as an axiom that we deserve our reparations and that it is just to take them in any way necessary. There is no arguing.

The only thing you can argue is how we will get it. I personally do not mind letting you live, so if you just voluntarily pay up then that's great. But a lot of people, specially our leaders like in the leadership of BLM or BAMN, want blood. But if you pay up then even those radicals will lose their platform because what we all want is our fucking money. So just give it to us.

>>9309064
But why not just create ethno-pathogens and drone swarms that target "PoC" to exterminate you first?
Asians aren't looking for "reparations" it's just blacks and some latino's. The people leading AI and the Military (whites, Asians, Indians) don't give 2 shits about "reparations". The people who do are not in any position to "take" them as you say, so why should we care?

>>9309158
Kek. We have affirmative action which means we take your education. Some social programs mean we take your taxes.

We already have a lot of people in power. 50% of politicians are on our side. Media companies are on our side. You are going down retard, just pay up.

>>9309158
IIRC there were reparations for the Chinese who built the railroad

>>9309161
Getting an education doesn't matter, when you look at what blacks and latino's are studying it's all BS like business or history etc. The VAST majority of STEM is white and asian, and it always will be because we're inherently more intelligent on average. You aren't taking the STEM fields, you're simply taking the liberal arts. It's not important in the game of power.
The corporations and governments that actually control these systems are all white and Asian and there is literally no possibility that Blacks are going to take over these fields. You're being tricked into thinking you're gaining power while the actual players in the game (Top US intelligence agencies, silicon valley people, Russia, China, Japan, India, and various middle eastern countries like Israel and Saudi Arabia) are actually building futuristic weapon systems. Black people literally don't factor into the game at all. You aren't even considered.
It doesn't matter how many blacks "take over the government" or how many politicians "are on your side" when AI systems and other countries' military capabilities are so much more powerful that it renders these current systems obsolete.

>>9309163
That just proves my point, Asians don't care, they're looking to establish the NWO with the whites and create a new techno-fuedal world.

>>9309170
Kek I love this twisted politicla fanfiction you've written to rationalize the fact that if you go out and say "fuck niggers" you'd go to jail, but if I go out with a speaker and shout "white people deserve to be brutally murdered and tortured and I am glad when white people suffer" no one would say anything to me. Kek.

Control is being taking away from you and you can't even see it because you are too busy writing fanfiction about a "technofeudal" world. Good luck with that mate.

>>9309185
What? I'm not talking about anything that's fake though. You can just look up who runs these companies and who runs these governments. Its no fan-fiction. Why are you on /sci/ if you don't know about science?
Also I won't go to jail if I go out and say "fuck niggers" idk what you're talking about. You can keep lying to yourself and thinking that blacks are taking over but there's literally no evidence of it. I can see Asians taking over whites but blacks are not anywhere near it, and they don't have the intellectual capabilities to put up a fight against Asians anyway (just look at what's happening in Africa right now).

>>9305898
This.

Daily reminder that the "new frontier" of "tumor treating fields" is the same thing Royal Rife developed 70 years ago, and was promptly crushed in the typical fashion. Joining the thread of many others through history that fit the same pattern.

The western way of lying has developed to a point where things are just left in plain sight. All you need to do is prevent the pieces from being put together and flood the media with nonsense claiming the obvious common sense conclusions are incorrect, conspiratorial, and simply not feasible.

>>9309197
Going to jail is an exageration but you know damn well you'd lose your job and all sympathy from your community.

Also, all you are saying is fanfiction. No one is building technofeudalism (whatever that means in your headcanon). And if they are then you can't prove it. Go on, post a source.

>>9309069
I bet you think intelligent design and evolution are mutually exclusive too.

>>9309208
There is no single "source", you just need to have a triple digit IQ and see what's going on around you.
AI systems that record your every movement, save every search you make, record all your conversations as they happen already exist and are being used. Amazon's AI can tell with a 99.9% accuracy what it's regular users are going to buy BEFORE they buy it, and it know WHEN they will buy it. these are only going to become more widespread.
Drones installed with facial recognition artificial neural nets can take out targets with surgical precision based on any requirement you want (you can build these machines to only attack certain races, for example).
There are already ethnically specific pathogens that exist.
Technofuedalism is being built all around you by every tech-company and government as we speak, if you really don't think it's happening/don't see it you're simply ignoring it or you're an idiot. AI is developing exponentially.

>>9309208

Most Paleoart;
Its not that the science that is necessarily wrong, its that most of these artist on the internet(and the cancer that is deviantart) draw shit and claim/think that OMG ITS SUPER SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE ITS PROVEN

but not its not, most fossils are extremely fragmentary material and many species are only known by a single bone; sometimes entire taxonomic families are defined as such

And furthermore, skin/feather/fur colors and patterns are even more rare

And yet you have all of these armchair paleontologists who just because they read some abstract on a shit paper thinking they have the answer to all of this shit

I remember when just because a Tyrannosaurid and somewhat distant relative was found to have some feathers suddenly MUH PHYLOGENTIC BRACKING TREXSES HAVE FEATHERS LOLLOLLL JURASSIC PARK IS INACCURATE LOL

The brain generally needs repeated training with some sort of feedback loop (eg EEG rendered as some scene on a screen that changes according to how tightly the specific system has been entrained into the target range) to be able to quickly replicate certain activity. Transcranial magnetic stimulation can also alter certain aspects of consciousness that placebo doesn't likely account for, like spatial orientation, working memory, balance, and auditory processing.

Pulsed ELF and microwave fields also alter calcium flux in populations of cells. Refer to these for a plausible mechanism:

Magnets could also produce muscle spasms. What causes action potentials in the brain, can cause them in motoneurons.

>>9305879
MBTI

>>9309494
That's not how calcium channels work, nor what a seizure is. Seizures are more than just elevated intracellular calcium. Also, transcranial magnetic stimulation was in part inspired by people with treatment resistant depression emerging from MRIs "cured", for a time. This is most likely because L-type calcium channels are involved in neurotransmitter release.

It's about the pulsing, not the field strength. Static fields alone tends to exert directional effects. Fluid dynamics / hemodynamics are locally altered, autoxidation in the presence of iron via fenton reaction is potentiated.

But that's not true. Populations don't just have "superficial" differences, they have differences in how huge number of their genes are expressed. Europeans process alcohol differently from, say, Native Americans. Asians process caffeine different from Europeans. They all absorb certain nutrients different from each other. They reach puberty at different ages. They have different body odors, produce ear wax differently, need slightly different diets, etc etc

I mean, it's not a trivial "superficial" difference.

For Nofap there have been multiple studies on testosterone levels and they peaked around a week after abstinence, and after that they stagnated or tapered-off slightly (but still elevated compared to those who over-masturbate).

>>9315998
Is this really the /sci/ level?

Psychology has very strong empirical base, and it is nothing but patterns and correlation. Assuming you know what basic statistical concepts mean (Pearson and Spearman correlation, p-value, ANOVA, it's not hard to find very useful facts about how humans tend to behave.
Here is an anecdotal psychological observation from my practice, which is reinforced in forums and imageboards: there is an increasing number of edgy teen-spirited individuals that are atheists and think that psychology, statistics, and philosophy is bullshit.
Somehow, my area of quantum physics does not restrict me from knowing actual shit about those fields. Maybe the problem is not the field, but you?

"Many other scholars also try to have it both ways, i.e. deny race and at the same time study it. And it is not just racial realists who complain about this apparent incoherence. Sometimes even racial constructionists chastise their colleagues who ardently espouse politically correct views about race, but appear to make use of race in their actual scientific practice. A nice example is the sarcastic way Debra Harry and Jonathan Marks criticized Cavalli-Sforza and his co-researchers:

'We learn, on the one hand, that the Human Genome Diversity Project will prove that races do not exist..., and on the other hand, [we see on the cover page of the History and Geography of the Human Genes] that its results can be summarized in widely publicized color-coded maps in which ‘‘Africans are yellow, Australians red, [Mongoloids blue], and Caucasoids green’’'. (Harry & Marks, 1999, p. 304)"

>radio waves
The cancer angle I won't get into, in some cases certain fields can act as cancer promoters, enhance the action of other toxins, or lead to cancer themselves, in other cases the opposite. Depends on a lot. Generally the oxidative and nitrosative stress induced by pulsed RF is more apt to trigger apoptosis or cause necrosis.

This has a long and complex history. In any case, it's been apparent that non-ionizing radiation is biologically active since the 50's. If you don't believe non-ionizing radiation can athermally cause chemical change in a system, take a look at how your own eyes work. How can visible light interacting with your eye cause your mental state to change? Likewise, imagine a robot controlled via wi-fi holding a test tube of some reactive compound above a vat of some other compound. A signal is sent to make it drop it, chemical change occurs. By such logic, these trivial everyday events are impossible, as are most of your own senses. Clearly it's a matter of signal amplification and transduction, at every scale.

Worth noting at the SETI operators convention there was a disturbing discovery. It was first observed that all of the near fifty children that showed up with their parents to the convention were girls. This prompted a survey that found that 95% of all the children born to operators, after they had started working on the program, were girls.

And the FCC does have a whole lotta rules about the nature of transmission towers, even in the citizen ban frequency, specifically to prevent cancer.

Not that I find it likely cell phones are causing much cancer. Cancer rates are actually down per capita, if you adjust for the increase in elderly population (by quite a lot, in some places). Cancer is eventually inevitable with age. Even children tend to have benign cancers, it's just a matter of time before you get one that's malignant.

Elaborate. Also explain to me why we should bother using IQ tests when it's been shown you can improve results by taking the test repeatedly and becoming aware of the types of questions you'll face going in. If the purpose is to gauge computational ability by the human brain, why not test pure reaction time or run neural imaging software to test the rate at which a person's neurons fire off and leave it at that? It'd be impossible to create or argue that there's any sort of bias there, yet people continue to fall back on IQ tests for no good reason.

So it makes me feel better to believe that nobody is really in as much power as they think and Eris will come along and shit on them eventually too.

It makes me feel even better to know that I'm probably right, and that even whatever gods or angels or demons or eldritch abominations exist beyond human understanding, they're ultimately just as baffled by the chaos and complexity of the universe as we are, and their power is every bit as illusory.

But I'm also curious as to what you think I was trying to communicate.

Underneath misanthropy is perpetual disappointment and disgust. Underneath those is the sensation of entrapment and futility. Beneath that is simple unrelenting contrast. To continue in the face of such fatigue, the mind dissociates and compartmentalizes, selectively suppressing certain inputs and replacing them with anger.

Anyway, I think what you're trying to communicate is just disgust at how trivial, infantile, and pseudo-complex everything is. Constant pretense, actions and beliefs a constant contradiction with a given culture's own purported value system. Constant lies. No capacity for meaningful progress, endless slavery to highly vertical control structures. Same mistakes over and over, making intricate mazes for each other to live in. All a big game. No dynamic behavior whatsoever, just a very simple species that does very simple things and displays marginal emergent complexity. You want to say "I'm not a part of that mess. I'm not one of them, I can't be. I'm on the outside looking in." Maybe, but you're certainly not in a vacuum. You're part of it, by force.

Nietzsche, or someone put this quite well. Roughly, "In any given era those with the intellectual and moral courage will descend into the molten pit of human reality. Eventually they are driven back by the flames and burned by the light of its truth, emerging only as burnt children. Eternal orphans in empires of illusion."

>Underneath misanthropy is...

Underneath misanthropy is the desire to change humanity for the better. You're thinking more of misan-pan-thropy or something.

Blah, blah, blah.

Not that you're wrong about any of that, but not that it isn't all the most blindingly obvious shit in the world. I thought you meant something more profound when you said you knew what I was trying to communicate; that's all pretty self-evident.

>No capacity for meaningful progress, endless slavery to highly vertical control structures.

The latter may be true, for now, but the former isn't. That's the exact opposite of what I was trying to express.

Nothing's a closed system.

>"I'm not one of them...I'm on the outside looking in." Maybe, but...You're part of it, by force.

Lol no I'm not. FYIAD, dragons do what they want, and I'll force my fucking way out.

I'm not scared of you or of them. There is nothing they could do to me, and I can even hear them now, their response whispering in the wind, "oh yes we can, yes we can," but they fucking can't. They can suck my dick, that's all they can do.

> some shitty hackjob that happened to briefly come to prominence.

I'm not a shitty hackjob, I'm a highly intelligent and talented but terminally lazy, psychotic, and infinitely immature edgelord. I'm charismatic, I make people laugh. I also inspired hatred, I disgust people, I'm very unpopular.

But somebody once told me "There's more right with you than wrong with you," so must be a goddamn LOT right with me somewhere.

Prominence... I guess I did, and the way it happened was like being handed ten billion dollars in pennies, but it's still ten billion dollars. Being known gives me influence over other people's minds, and is there a more valuable resource than that? If I get over my own self-loathing bullshit enough to figure out how to use it productively, it can be more of an advantage than a drawback.

Fair point, it's just annoying when cancer alarmists point to cancer being on the rise without adjusting their numbers for a larger aged population.

Part of the reason it's on the decline (in most cases) is probably because we have a wider understanding of known carcinogens and prevention techniques.

You can't face it, yet. You think you know, and you think you see, but some part of you knows you can't bring yourself to engage with it directly. This causes dissonance and discontent. Stems from fear, and subsequent denial causes your paralysis.

>They can suck my dick, that's all they can do.
This can mean anything from "I have no attachment to life and all things in it, and few mental barriers" to "I (incorrectly) think I'm literally invulnerable, and can meet no greater force". You should ask yourself what you mean and why, if you have not already.

>I'm not a shitty hackjob
And yet..
> I'm a highly intelligent and talented but terminally lazy, psychotic, and infinitely immature edgelord.
You use negative things as a lens to describe yourself, possibly internally redefining them internally as neutral or apart from a binary matter. You derive positive from a negative underlying baseline, beauty from misery, bliss from shit, utility from adversity, strength from suffering. So on and so forth. Much can be resolved by unraveling the basis, and genesis, of this tendency.

All of my creativity, skills, and will is a distorted form of misery.

>Being known gives me influence over other people's minds
Study divide and conquer, bread and circus, and applied crowd psychology. Also study the effect of post-traumatic states on information uptake and redefinition of previously unshakable beliefs. You will find it interesting. There is very little difference between overall population flux, and state transitions in networks of cells.

Well... it's not even that, it's more like I know that I'm not doing it right, and so it's better to wait until I have the right handle on things. I can bring myself to interact with it, but I need a different perspective to accomplish what I want to accomplish.

I don't need to be coming from a position of ego. The old ego is in its dying stages, but it focuses too much on stupid shit and is too easily manipulated. It needs to be remolded. I shouldn't care what anybody thinks about me, or who accepts me or doesn't accept me, or about social biases or sucked in by applied crowd psychology or a place of too-extreme judgement of those who are sucked in by said applied crowd psychology...

I kinda wanna die, but let's let that part of me die, and I'll work with the rest. Kinda hard to explain what I mean in writing.

I don't even have to be what they try to make of me, but before I engage... something needs to change, and I'm figuring that bit out. Better to wait until I'm sober than to screw it up worse.

>Stems from fear, and subsequent denial causes your paralysis.

Yes and no. I'm not planning to give up or go easy on the situation, can't be bought or bullied or negotiated with, and I have every expectation that people will not go easy on me when they're through laughing; after all, first they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

Paralysis is caused by my understanding that I need to tread carefully. I know I'm outmatched. I'm crazy enough to go for their jugular anyways.

And also from the nagging feeling that something very important is being left out of all this, something they they're either hiding or never knew themselves, and the part of me that I trust most tells me to slow down and get a better view outside of whatever lens they're trying to shove in front of my eyes, and not to tread to lightly before that. It's an immune response.

>"I have no attachment to life and all things in it, and few mental barriers"

I'm getting pretty close there.

>"I (incorrectly) think I'm literally invulnerable, and can meet no greater force"

I correctly think I can meet no greater force. There is no other force. It's all one force, a pulsating sea of energy with no beginning or end; I think the new age fags are exactly right about that for all the wrong reasons.

It's just all about getting that where you want it. Because it's not force, really, it's patterns, and you can move them about and make them do strange things. I like to have tea leaves placed directly in the teacup so I can eat them when I'm almost done drinking the tea, but gravity causes them all to fall down to the bottom of the cup, and I can't as easily drink them with the last couple gulps of tea... but if I stick my finger in the bottom of the teacup and swirl it around, the fucking things dance until they become one with the tea, apparently defying the laws of gravity and allowing me to gulp them down with the last bit of teh liquid.

Kinda simple realization, but it's caused me to realize that there are always ways around things that seem pretty concrete. The subatomic particles that make up this world are perfectly capable of rearranging themselves into whatever manner I desire; the only question is, how do I do that? Even physical laws that seem concrete at first must be beatable. And some say I have my head in the clouds, but goddammit, I can't shake the feeling that there's some way to stick my finger in the water and make those tea leaves dance and do exactly whatever I was trying to get them to do in the first place.

Nobody can argue that I'm not technically correct; all they could do is argue about the probability of one thing or another happening, but they look at themselves as something separate from nature, far removed from the creative processes that give birth to everything...

Are the new age airheads reading The Secret right or are the party-pooping, tut-tutting fundamentalist materialist fags right? Probably a little truth to both, more than either one would want to admit.

As far as "invulnerable" goes... Well, I'm as invulernable as they are. That's all the chance I need, right?

>You use negative things as a lens to describe yourself

Well, I was listing off my positive qualities in response to your assertion that I didn't have any and included my negative attributes as an afterthought so as to be realistic. My point was that if I have some crippling disabilities, I also have some godlike advantages, and that's not to deny those crippling disabilities... But there *are* both.

>redefining them internally as neutral or apart from a binary matter

Did I "redefine them as apart from a binary matter", or did you define them as a part of a binary matter to begin with? Is nature binary, or is human perception binary?

Po-TAY-to, po-TAH-to, I guess. Who cares?

>positive from a negative underlying baseline, beauty from misery, bliss from shit, utility from adversity, strength from suffering

Some truth to this.

>Much can be resolved by unraveling the basis, and genesis, of this tendency.

I think the basis of it must be, at this point, the desire to remove limitation first and foremost, and emotional addiction secondarily, but the former justifies the latter since the former will transform my emotional landscape, and thus the latter.

The genesis? I dunno, emotional and cognitive biases picked up from emotional conditioning and maybe demonic entities? Hail Satan.

>Study divide and conquer, bread and circus, and applied crowd psychology. Also study the effect of post-traumatic states on information uptake and redefinition of previously unshakable beliefs. You will find it interesting.

I mean, I already can figure most of what I'd need to know just by thinking about it, as far as I can tell. Maybe took some thought to develop these techniques, but the blueprints are all out in the open; the reason most people don't see them is ego, because they don't want to see them.

I would like to know about the neural effects of it all. The brain and the physical organism, but not to focus on that to the exclusion of the spiritual as some seem to do.

I guess the problem is with numbers. All those people see is numbers in everything, behind everything, as a tool for everything, and they're correct to some degree, but they focus on this so much that it becomes a limitation IMHO. When I've been able to surprise them, every single time, it's been because they've been focusing on numbers, and I was thinking more in terms of chaos, and so somehow I don't do what the numbers predict I should do. Maybe my way has its limitations when it comes across cold, hard numbers, but its power is that can distort them sometimes. They're planners, they form things, and I am a placn wrecker, a form destroyer. I think in tones and songs and not so much in quantity or density. And proably am "negative" to any sane way of being, I guess.

>There is very little difference between overall population flux, and state transitions in networks of cells.

I mean, from what little I've learned so far, reality is fractal as shit. Similar patterns manifest themselves in so many ways that seem entirely unintuitive to the overly-skeptical pseudo-scientific fundamentalist materialist worldview. I do need to learn more.

Honestly don't know if this is sarcastic. Is extended fasting for cancer a thing?
I imagine cancer doesn't care about how many nutrients you're taking in and will just keep multiplying until you die.
Please tell me it's sarcasm
