A Political Thread pt. 2

If he keeps the head shaved and podcast camera above his stomach Joe Rogan could eventually convince somebody he's hard
 
It’s a load of rubbish. How you can boil down a few hundred thousand years of human history into a stupid quote like that and think it’s profound is beyond me.

You still haven’t defined any of the terms either but I’m not really interested. I know it’s stupid. It’s something a 13 year old would say and think it’s really profound.

How Nihilistic of you...

It doesnt have to define everything, i just thought the right wimg perspective on it was interesting, and i was considering what alternative perspectives on it would be.
 
This went about as expected...

The threads quiet, i thought id stir up some conversation and not one person comments on the quote itself, Tate said it, Jo Rogans a pussy, the guy who authered the idea is a quack whos entire catalogue is trash, Jordan Peterson gets brought up hahahaha

So the idea of mans ability to dictate society, and its cyclic nature is nonsensical dri thru philosophy (ill be honest i like that term lol).

Shall i pop it on the discarded pile alongside:

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Comparison is the thief of joy.

And

Simpliciry is the ultimate sophistication.

Good to know.

It’s a stupid quote that isn’t even historically accurate. It’s so simplistic it’s child like. Do you think any historian worth a damn would give any credence to such a thing?
 
It’s kind of like the misinterpretation of evolution where people say something stupid like “the strong survive the weak die” when in reality it’s about those that adapt best to their environments and surroundings that survive.

All philisophical quotes could be argued against like that, disregarding them for the author, disparaging them, or making the claim serious people wouldnt consider them...

I Find it odd that without hesitation you felt the need to attack it without considering a word of it. Its not as if im subscribed to it as a theory, but others are, and thats interesting is it not?

I think youve misunderstood evolution as a theory, when refered to strong reproductive sucxess, adaptability, survical ability and also genetic advantage are key tenets are they not?

The strong very much would have those core elements no? Meaning they survived and progressed?

Maybe ive read what youve said wrong, im really confused

Attack it without considering a word? Nope. I mean, it’s a short quote. I did read it and found it a laughably simplistic explanation of something extremely complex.

It’s about adaptability. Evolution also isn’t a cycle.

But it’s not an accurate comparison as the quote you posted is making a moral claim.
