Can’t believe it’s March already. That’s so depressing, the winter’s just flying by. But at least this weekend is FREEZING cold so I can enjoy my signature hot chocolate, but unfortunately I can’t find any good horror movies or dark dramas to watch.
So much in the news. Trump claiming Obama wired wiretapped him. I don’t buy it. I think Trump just made the whole thing up or it’s some right-wing Alex Jones type conspiracy theory. Even though I don’t think Trump’s especially bright, based on the simplicity and repetitiveness of his vocab and sentences and the smallness of his head, he has brilliant reptilian instincts when it comes to ethnic genetic interests. He knows tens of millions of working class whites look at Obama as some foreign dark skinned Muslim boogey man, and so he can make up anything he wants about him and the masses will rally around Trump.
Meanwhile Queen Oprah (the woman who elected Obama) has been rocking the media with her chic dark rimmed glasses and 40 lb weight loss, and Weight Watchers stock is on fire.
So many Wallstreet geniuses lost their shirts betting against the most influential woman on the planet and North America’s FIRST and ONLY multibillionaire black. The conventional wisdom was that the company was going nowhere, but I could picture Oprah just marching into the Weight Watchers board room with her super-human energy, charisma, stratospheric cranium and likely 140 IQ and ordering all those Ivy League MBAs to start making her some money or their out on their ass.
Oprah was recently interviewed by David Rubenstein who apparently has a talk show now (everyone wants to be the next Oprah, even people who are already billionaires) and he asked her if she would ever consider running for President. Her reply:
I never considered the question even a possibility, I though, ‘Oh gee, I don’t have the experience, I don’t know enough.’ But now I’m thinking, ‘Oh. Oh.’
The studio audience went wild. It was amazing how prepared Oprah seemed in this interview. It seemed like everything he asked, she had thought of a hundred times and the wise rhetoric just poured out of her like rain.
Even though it was obvious Oprah was joking, the sheer power of her words is such that the possibility of her running for president made non-stop headlines around the World for 24 hours straight until her best friend of 40 years, Gayle King Bumpus stepped in to pour rain on the parade, saying Oprah will NEVER run for resident, NEV-AH, and Gayle said she’d bet her own children on that fact.
I agree with Gayle. People run for President because they want the kind of status and adulation that Oprah already has. But after years of recovering from the horror of childhood sexual abuse, Oprah has achieved an incredible happiness and inner peace. Why would she want to go into the dirty game of politics when she can relax on her $100 million Santa Barbara estate overlooking the Ocean and the mountains and read a good novel while sitting under one of the thousands of trees in her yard?
Pumpkin Person 
bitches
yes afro. we get that you’re black.
sad!
more interesting is how peepee doesn’t get how false wall street can be. stocks are SOLD just like pet rocks. but unlike pet rocks there is an objective measure of value eventually.
i guess MSO de-listed because it had no profits.
actually it merged with something called Sequential Brands Group…
which has returned something like -40% since the merger.
sad!
Hahaha.
Tech stocks are pet rocks maybe.
Since mining, chemicals, pharma or insurance stocks are boring they actually resemble more solid investments.
I seem to recall Mikey doin well on Comcast
http://www.morningstar.com/stocks/XNAS/CMCSA/quote.html
Mikey got a dartboard hit on this. If I invested every time on a tip I’d be broke.
So I encourage Mikey to go into a Vanguard ETF. Or levered ETF if he wants more risk/return with less transaction costs and taxes.
“Weight Watchers stock is on fire.”
lol
They lost 46 percent in 2016.
After reality set in and it became clear that the former talk-show host did not possess a magic way to turn the company around, its shares went on a sort of yo-yo diet. They popped on hints of good news or comments by Winfrey, then they tanked when those effects wore off:
https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/01/10/heres-why-weight-watchers-international-inc-lost-4.aspx
What does she know about dieting?
https://proteinpower.com/drmike/2008/12/09/oprahs-plight/
WWs stock yo-yos just like her weight… How long will she keep off this weight until she gains it back again? Recall how many times she’s yo-yod up and down and up and down. . .
such stocks are always bad investments unless you’re a criminal like oprah.
why?
will weight watchers be around in 30 years?
do they have something which can’t be copied?
no.
weight watchers is like for profit colleges and day time talk shows, 100% pure scam.
do they have something which can’t be copied?
Yes, Oprah. That’s more than 99.9% of companies have.
“Yes, Oprah. That’s more than 99.9% of companies have.”
Who doesn’t know shit about dieting. Like 99 percent of Americans.
How do you advise fat people to lose weight RR? Cut carbs. What if like Oprah, they love bread:
odds are oprah won’t be alive in 30 years peepee.
like AAPL without steve jobs.
companies should outlive their founders.
Only Warren Buffet thinks 30 years ahead when buying stocks. So much can change it that time that it’s hard to invest in any company using that standard.
doesn’t mean you can’t make a lot from such companies which should never have been listed…
it just means the odds are against you…BIGLY.
what’s the trump brand without the donald?
Slow Carb Diet. Need to change habits. The SLC allows for a cheat day one day a week where people can eat bread if they so please.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25527677
For many years, nutritional intervention studies have been focused on reducing dietary fat with little positive results over the long-term. One of the most studied strategies in the recent years for weight loss is the ketogenic diet. Many studies have shown that this kind of nutritional approach has a solid physiological and biochemical basis and is able to induce effective weight loss along with improvement in several cardiovascular risk parameters. This review discusses the physiological basis of ketogenic diets and the rationale for their use in obesity, discussing the strengths and the weaknesses of these diets together with cautions that should be used in obese patients.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3945587/
The SLC allows for a cheat day one day a week
One cheat day a week is not enough given food addiction, peer pressure to eat constantly, constant advertising etc. People will relapse too much on that diet.
i guess only buffett and me peepee.
i’m not saying one should hold a stock for 30 years irrespective of what happens.
i am saying one should NEVER buy a stock of a company whcih he can’t say for sure will be around in 30 years or be acquired.
one should think of stocks as variable perpetuities.
some claim the duration of 30 year bonds is greater than that of stocks on average.
they might be right.
but it’s not much greater.
a stock is a variable, usually increasing, perpetuity.
THAT’S WHAT IT IS!
yet retards treat them like sports teams. sports betting.
my favorite holding period is forever.
would it were everyone’s.
in 1953, iirc, the actuarial average holding period reached its peak for NYSE stocks.
what was it?
8 years and 1 month.
sounds right.
“One cheat day a week is not enough given food addiction, peer pressure to eat constantly, constant advertising etc. People will relapse too much on that diet.”
See the problem with obesogenic environments? Food addictions can be mediated with counseling. Ask me about it.
I need advice on food addiction.
“I need advice on food addiction.”
I doubt you’re really ‘addicted’ to food. The DSM-V finally recognized food addiction (about time):
http://foodaddictioninstitute.org/dsm-v-acknowledges-food-addiction/
Including (but not limited to):
a. recurrent episodes of binge eating, in which binge eating is defined as eating in a discrete period of time, (e.g. within a 2-hour period) an amount of food that is definitely larger than what most people would eat in a similar period of time under similar circumstances, and
b. a sense of lack of control over eating during the episode (e.g. a feeling that one cannot stop eating or control what or how much one is eating.).
Food addictions can be mediated with mindful eating. I thought it was bullshit and I rolled my eyes as I got to the part (I bought the book for the obesity research) but at the end of the books I came around to it.
You pretty much eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full. Eat whole foods.
http://www.dianecarbonell.com/does-mindful-eating-work-for-weight-loss/
Watch Sandra Aamodt’s Ted Talk too, she talks about mindful eating.
Oh ok, no I’m not a pathological food addict, just a French gourmand with a big boy’s appetite.
yeah it was as high as $60 in 2013 ..not only do diets not work but the ‘fat acceptance’ moment is probably hurting their business too
Exactly. Dieting doesn’t work. Maybe some other people around here can get it through their heads.

Stock is way up RR. Great Forbes article on how Oprah outsmarted Wall Street:
With Wall Street taking a dim view of Weight Watchers International in recent months and short sellers betting against her, Oprah Winfrey went to work. She revealed a 42-pound weight loss in January since she started the Weight Watchers program. Winfrey appeared on the cover of People Magazine, saying “I finally made peace with food.” She published a new cookbook “Food, Health and Happiness” describing how eating had finally become joyful to her and Weight Watchers launched “Connect with Oprah,” a members-only video platform designed to spark inspiration and insight from Winfrey.
On Wednesday, investors who had bet against Winfrey got run over by Weight Watchers’ surging stock. Shares of the company soared by 34% to $19.34. The company showed surprising strength in the financial figures and projections it unveiled on Tuesday evening, when it reported that membership had grown by 10% to 2.6 million during its latest quarter. The company is now profitable again and expects to earn as much as $1.40 per share this year, compared to the $1.17 Wall Street had been expecting.
Christopher Sobecki, a Weight Watchers director and managing director at the company’s biggest shareholder, gave the credit to Winfrey. “We benefit not only from her active role in Weight Watchers advertising, but also her broader visibility and influence as a role model and advocate for pursuing a healthier lifestyle, both to our members and potential members,” Sobecki said on a Wall Street conference call on Tuesday.
The result left many on Wall Street licking their wounds. Investors had been massively betting against the shares of the Weight Watchers, expecting they would fall. Short interest in the stock reached 80.2% of the outstanding float in February and now many of the short sellers appear to have been caught offside and forced to cover their positions. Call it the Oprah short squeeze.
In 2015, Winfrey surprised the market and joined up with Weight Watchers, acquiring a 10% stake in the diet company and agreeing to serve as its chief promoter. At first the stock surged by 300%, changing hands for as much as $28, which in effect was the first Oprah short squeeze. But investors quickly lost interest in the stock and short sellers started to pounce again. By September 2016, nearly all of the Winfrey-related gains had evaporated with the stock trading under $10 and the company’s CEO, Jim Chambers, resigned.
Winfrey, who serves on Weight Watchers’ board, is now helping Weight Watchers find a new CEO. She is also hinting at potentially running to be U.S. president. Short sellers on Wall Street certainly might not underestimate her chances. If she runs, she could find herself opposing another guy who has been steamrolling short sellers on Wall Street with markets hitting fresh highs, Donald J. Trump.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/nathanvardi/2017/03/01/oprah-destroys-those-on-wall-street-who-bet-against-her-and-weight-watchers/#1affa01b288f
OK I stand corrected. That doesn’t change the fact that it’s a shitty program with a part-owner who is ignorant to dieting.
Oprah bought WW @$28 in Oct 15
The stock is now $17
The overall market went up ~12% http://performance.morningstar.com/funds/etf/total-returns.action?t=SPY
I appreciate that this may be a turnaround situation. If she can turn it around and keep pumping up WW. Good.
I suppose, it could have been much worse without her brand.
I’m not a nutrition expert, but people say WW is a decent regimen.
Philosopher, Oprah bought Weight Watchers stock at $6.79, not $28:
“Winfrey spent roughly $43 million on Oct. 18 to buy 6.4 million common shares at $6.79. Her stake also came with 3.5 million options, or 5% of the company, exercisable at $6.97.”
http://fortune.com/2016/02/26/oprahs-stake-in-weight-watchers-is-still-a-winner/
It’s now worth $17.79
Very good. Oprah is giving Carl Icahn a run for his turnaround money.
I respect Icahn. Even like him. Doesn’t make me fucking Mossad.
Well total return with dividends of S&P is 20%.
Oprah got 162%. So, her endorsement/brand really helped a lot there Pumpkin.

I hope she’s as tired as me and that we’ll just spend the evening fucking without any substance abuse.

at least show us you have taste.
you’re not trying hard enough to be black.
Oh no… Mugabe is now stealing my avatar. Buy yourself a personality dude. I found out where your trolling comes from: you hated the frat boys in college.
I checked urbandictionary’s entry for frat boy and it just looks like a conversation between Philibuster, Asshat Jimmy, Peepee and Mug of Pee dissing me.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=frat+boy
Look at this girl telling the truth about frat boys:
“It’s more than pizza and beer.
Frat boys: the stereotypical tall, beautiful, buff guys who wear snapbacks, Polos, Patagonia jackets, colorful shorts and Sperry’s. The ones who are thought to be dumb jocks who peaked in high school, carry Jack Daniels in their backpacks and only care about getting girls, partying and barely getting a degree. If you’re new to college, you’ll probably find yourself exploring the world of frat boys and frat parties, and here’s what you should keep in mind.
1. Yes, they’re hot.
Frat boys seem to have a way of knowing what they look great in. Whether they’re all dressed up for a meeting, sporting their letters on a t-shirt, at the gym, ready for a party or going to class, they look good and they know they look good. Believe me, one time I was walking on campus and almost tripped over a rock due to the frat boy football game that I couldn’t stop staring at. No matter what they are wearing or how they look, you’ll know a frat boy when you see one. They seem to have this strong presence that just radiates “frat boy,” and there’s something oddly intriguing about it. Be thankful for the frat boys that grace your campus each and every day.
2. The love they have for their brothers is SO CUTE.
Seriously. These guys create bonds with their brothers that just can’t be broken and it is ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE. They’re always looking out for one another and have each other’s backs. 24/7, they’re ready for whatever one of their brothers might need, whether it’s a ride home or a buddy to grab burgers with. The loyalty they prove to their fraternities is admirable and a trait that any girl can find attractive. There are few things more heart-warming than seeing brotherly love that frat boys constantly show.
3. They don’t hate girls who are not in sororities!
Whoever said frat boys only like sorority girls was completely incorrect. To each his own, yes. I’m sure this varies from guy to guy and yes, there are things in Greek Life that are exclusive specifically to Greeks, but just because you’re not in a sorority does not mean every frat guy is going to judge you for it. There are countless frat brothers who have no issues with non-sorority girls, and you can still appreciate frat boys, be friends with them, experience the party scene and everything else they have to offer.
4. “Frat guy names” are a thing.
If you meet a college guy named Nick, Josh, Ben, Mike, Jared, Brandon, Tony, Trent, Trey, Cody, Brody, Chad, Brad or anything that rhymes with “dad,” chances are, he’s in a frat. It’s also highly likely that two brothers in the same frat have the same name, or four of them. No, really. One night, I met four brothers in one house named Alex, and that made for a very confusing situation.
5. They plan safe parties.
Most of the time, house parties are registered and have permission to be held. Frat boys respect the law enforcement and regulate their houses to make sure nothing gets too crazy or out of hand. They also care about the safety of who is in their house, have “sober teams” who control their parties, and are likely to call Ubers to take guests home so no one has to walk. They’re all about having fun, but they understand that putting their brotherhood on the line isn’t worth risking.
6. They’re smart.
Most fraternities have a GPA requirement that holds the brothers to an academic promise. The frat boys I know are extremely intelligent, goal-oriented and driven. One night, I had a conversation with a highly intoxicated frat brother who was talking about his determination to succeed in school and become a famous doctor. Inspirational.
7. If you’re going to go to a frat party, it is EXPECTED that you know every word to “Jordan Belfort,” “All Night Longer,” and “I Love College.”
Fuck yeah !!!!
Every Thursday. Every Saturday. Just take my word for it and learn the songs.
8. Frat boys are involved in the community.
Each fraternity has their own philanthropy/charity they raise money for. They hold several events each year and participate in different awareness weeks to spread positivity to their communities and bring attention to various organizations while fundraising and showing support by wearing T-shirts, decorating their houses and educating students around campus for the benefit of a great cause.
9. They’ll make you wish you could be a frat boy.
I’m genuinely heartbroken that I’ll never get the chance to experience brotherhood. I just really, really, really want to be a bro. Especially on Superbowl Sunday.
10. They’re just normal dudes who want to be well-rounded and have a good time.
While there is a certain type of love for frat boys, at the end of the day they’re just normal dudes in college. They aren’t untouchable, unapproachable, or incredibly special just because they’re in a frat. All they want is to make the most of their college experience, be a part of something bigger than themselves, and make memories to share with their life long brothers.
So, the next time you walk into a dark house with pounding music, pong tables, no toilet paper, low-ceiling-basements, party lights, and the hard to miss smells of beer and sweat, remember that this is what these guys live for, and you’re getting to be a part of it. Frat boys are a fantastic part of life in college, so keep an open mind, don’t listen to negative stereotypes, experience it for yourself, keep calm and frat on.”
This girl got it, you did not. How about dealing with your inferiority complex in a more productive way ?
Inferiority? We’re not the orphans Afro.
Thank you for caring but I have a large loving family which is totally free of psychological issue and is highly respected. And I’m about to perpetuate my prestigious name and to give my wife and children an amazing life. Self-esteem on fleek.
Bruno Mars is one of the few gays I like.
Hahaha, is that official?
Bruno Mars’ girlfriend is Jessica Caban, a smoking hawt model. Bruno Mars is probably the luckiest midget on earth ladywise.
Uhhhh are you trying to make my ears bleed. Shit, your music is bullshit. It totally makes sense that you’re a lonely alcoholic and that you can’t understand how someone can get 100 girls before 25. Smh. And those old videos really wanna make me throw up.
Can you sense it? I feel it.
The ads are changing. No longer so many magic negro worshipping.
The alt right is gutting anything that comes out on social media and embarrassing the jew illusion weavers.
Who wants to bet All State don’t want the furor again over insurance?
Although Hollywood will still make an interracial porn movie by the end of this year.
Hum don’t celebrate, I saw something on the scene that said advertisers would actually increase the promotion of tolerance.
Remember an electoral victory is not a popular victory. I’ts only 50% or slightly more of those who voted, it excludes those who didn’t want to vote or those who couldn’t because they were too young or foreign residents. The majority of the population totally rejects the alt right, even if they achieve some electoral successes there is nothing like a popular wave of racism.
They lie about the polling. They lie about the economic stats. They rig the votes.
The alt right, judging by how Brexit, Trump, Italy and so on happened, is far more popular than the Jew media makes out.
That’s why they are acting out with the Russia rubbish and the hate hoaxes. Zion’s control is collapsing!
Yeah they lie about everything, everyone is lying to everyone about everything. Typical schizophrenic mindset.
In the real world Breitbart is only the 8th political website, it comes after the Huffington Post, The Blaze, Drudge Report, NewsMax, Politico, Salon and Infowars. My favorite, the very SWPL TheScene.com doesn’t make the list, not surprising.
http://www.ebizmba.com/articles/political-websites
It’s also interesting to see Alexa’s demographic stats. They say Breitbart News is more visited by people without college education at all or by non graduates with some college education. The HuffPost as well as TheScene dominate among the college educated. It makes sense, you have to be dumb to agree with the Alt-Right.
Maybe they can resist Zion’s mind control because they’re less educated?
No, ignorance is the ultimate enemy of intellectual freedom. It makes people able to believe things that don’t add up, intuition wins over reason, belief over knowledge.
RR, speaking of mainstream media, you should definitely visit The Scene’s sports page. I’m hooked on that stuff, so inspirational.
https://thescene.com/categories/sports
NYT and WAPO saw a doublng of site traffic on Alexa… from China.
Now Chinese IPs are 50% of their readership.
ZiOn AlWayS LiES TO YOUR FACE AND MOST PEOPLE WILL NEVER PICK IT UP.
For example the Trayvon Martin hate hoax where the 12 person jury fully aquitted him was a massive glitch.
Same with the ‘I can’t breathe’ guy who beat the shit out of the Korean shopkeeper and had to be physically subdued.
Or the guy that was shot running around the car saying he was just reading a book (in a stolen car).
A black man of that background reading a book?
Hahahah
Once you see the glitching, you know the Narrative is collapsing.
Its becoming clear who the real enemy of the West is – not Russia, not Arabs, not China….
ZION
^^^^ Just what I said, ignorance is the ultimate enemy of intellectual freedom. You know, just because you say outrageous unsubstantiated nonsense doesn’t mean you’re a free thinker. You’re just an intellectual slave to your emotions and the ideal target for manipulators of all kinds.
“Same with the ‘I can’t breathe’ guy who beat the shit out of the Korean shopkeeper and had to be physically subdued.”
Huh??? That’s not what happened.
Trump has successfully disrupted Zions weaving on Sessions. Very well played.
I was seeing on the alt right boards a lot of disquiet about it. It was a big fuckin gamble but the news cycle is now focused on conflating the Russia angle with the Democrats.
I have never seen anyone like Trump in my life. I think Machiavelli would love Trump.
Trump really is the real deal. We are all blessed to have observed his rise from very unique background. I suppose, rising through conventional zion controlled channels was simply impossible.
AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
TUCKER CALLED OUT ZION.
AHHHHH JIMMY JIMMY HE DID IT!!!!
I cant believe it!!
He called out the Necromancer, and the democrat blanched. Hahahahah. 9m in.
Jesus christ. On national tv.
My god. The civil war is coming.
8:30 onwards.
This is a historical moment. The first time the mass media has referenced Zion. Tucker is going to be given a strong talking to and possibly blackmailed/bribed/threatened/fired.
close but no cigar.
He didn’t name the enemy and even said ” top 10 countries” .
But the fact that he nearly went there is definitive evidence that he knows.
they all know.
I stand by my claim that he is a semi-Cuck.
He’s not a full blown cuckservative like the others.
He not at all a cuckservative. By your measure, trump is a fuckin cuck because he doesnt name Zion.
Tucker, can’t say it.
There’s nowhere near 10 countries that control or influence the US.
Only 2 – Israel and Saud.
Saudi Arabia is the definition of a puppet state.
They increase their production of oil to bring the price of oil down because the U.S wanted to punish Russia for Ukraine.
And they did that with the full knowledge that oil is the major source of their government’s revenue.
Such incredible obedience is the sign of a colony not a master.
the jews push that narrative as a way of giving the rednecks a bone to chew on.
I am truly amazed at how so many alt-righters and HBDers believe that Saudi Arabia is a nation that clicks her fingers and gives America orders.
What planet are you guys on ?!?!?!
I am definitely thinking about taking a professional I.Q test as either i am dumb and you guys see things that i can’t or i’m a genius.
Its one or the other.
Saudi Arabia is the definition of a puppet state.
Correct
Oil prices were killed by fracking and the general world stagnation plus China’s slowdown.
If you look at Wikileaks you can see they fund Hillary.
I also read they funded Netanyahu’s campaign in Israel.
If Saudi Arabia behaved like any other muslim nation it would have been invaded for harbouring and funding terrorism.
My guess is that Saud/Mossad/CIA work a lot together for Mid East supremacy, particularly over the Shiites. I have no idea what Saud sees more generally how the world should be.
I know how Israel wants it to be. That’s more obvious.
” Oil prices were killed by fracking ”
70% of all oil consumed in the U.S. is used for transportation.
Natural gas isn’t used in conventional vehicles so shale gas has virtually no impact on the oil price.
From 2010-2013 i worked as an algorithmic trading developer at BP .
None of the models that i worked on even considered shale gas.
If you’re referring to shale oil then that has been absolutely clobbered by the crash in oil prices.
Some US Shale oil producers require $90 a barrel just to breakeven
And that’s not including the fact that many US shale producers lie about their costs to get more investors.
you cant trust Texans.
Many shale oil producers are going to default on their loans soon.
The primary reason that oil prices crashed was Saudi Arabia refusing to stabilize the market.
the second factor was the oil futures contracts, but that would not have any effect if Saudi Arabia acted.
” If you look at Wikileaks you can see they fund Hillary.
I also read they funded Netanyahu’s campaign in Israel. ”
Exactly .
They are puppets of whoever is in power.
Obama wanted Hilary to win.
Just look at the way Obama is being treated by Trump.
Obama wanted Hilary to win.
Now that Trump is in power they will do whatever Trump tells them to do.
The saudi foreign minister even said that when trump comes to power and sees the files he will change his view on Saudi Arabia and that is exactly what happened.
Trump hasn’t said a single bad word about Saudi Arabia since he came to power.
” My guess is that Saud/Mossad/CIA work a lot together for Mid East supremacy, particularly over the Shiites. ” .
another crazy thing that HBDers and particularly alt-righters say.
Every single operation that the U.S has executed in the middle east has empowered the Shia .
There are two main reason for this:
1. The Shia consider the Palestinians to be infidels worse than jews.
That has obvious implications
2. The Shia are easier to control as their religious obedience to a command structure is very similar to the Catholics.
They believe that the Ayatollah speaks for God and that anything he says is what God wants.
If you were ever able to take over that command structure then you would have complete control over all shia.
The Shia are obedient subjects while the sunnis are much more independent thinkers.
A sunni’s adherence to a leader’s command depends on whether he feels that the command is morally right or wrong, while the shia obey the ayatollah irrespective of whether or not they think that the command is right because they believe that the ayotollah speaks for God.
The sunnis believe that the very concept of an Ayotollah is clear cut paganism, as no one alive today can speak for God.
A prominent example of sunnism was during the early 1990s when the Saudi puppet government allowed the US to use their air bases in the first gulf war.
The puppet religious establishment of the country issued an edict which effectively said that such collaboration was religiously acceptable.
That edict was completely rejected and it resulted in the formation of many anti-government groups and a large number of attacks on government instillation.
The situation was so dangerous that the US had to shut down all bases in the country and move ~60,000 troops .
I can not think of another situation where the US ran away like that.
by contrast, Iran collaborated with the US during the 2003 invasion of Iraq without even a whimper from the shia, even though many shia civilians died because of the war.
The Ayatollah even boasted about it by saying something to the effect of ” if it wasn’t for us America wouldn’t have been able to occupy Iraq ”
the puppet gov of Saudi Arabia wouldn’t even dream of saying something like that in public.
when you think about those two points then you will understand that the western establishment favors the shia. .
don’t trust words , only trust actions.
look at who they are bombing . All of them are Sunnis.
Well its very clear you read around. I’m just not seeing a coherent narrative in your views.
Ok, let’s look at oil. There was a spurt of investment in the mid 2000s onwards in shale and fracking which massively expanded supply. Combined with a significant world recession and China’s massive slowdown (their numbers are fake news like ours), that would seem to be more coherent than the idea Saud by itself, used oil prics to punish Russia (?!).
Then you have this interpretation of Iran which is just plain wrong. Iran funds Hizbollah. The Sunnis and Shias hate each other. Saud fund ISIS as per Wiki emails and Netanyahu has confirmed they are working with Saud to get the Syrians.
There’s also just the spectacle of what you are saying. Saud is not a puppet. That’s ridiculous. The Gulf States have trillions in wealth and can easily afford to buy freedom with that. They know Israel’s infestation game, so they don’t let the jews mind control their people. Their wealth is much more concentrated than the West and they’ve used is previously to donate to Bush’s dad, Hillary and Netanyahu.
In my opinion, a more coherent narrative is that the Zionist Israelis, Saud, and CIA are are partners, with the CIA of course being a kind of ersatz one, being as it was a tool of the gentile elite. Its unclear to me how far the infestation of the CIA is. Its very compromised in any case and the previous 5 CIA directors have been neocons i.e jew puppets.
” that would seem to be more coherent than the idea Saud by itself, used oil prics to punish Russia (?!). ”
U.S wanted to punish Russia so they told the Saudi gov to do it.
” Saud fund ISIS as per Wiki emails and Netanyahu has confirmed they are working with Saud to get the Syrians. ”
And who told them to do that?
and who is ” the Syrians” ? Syria is majority Sunni.
” Saud is not a puppet. That’s ridiculous ”
This is insane.
Why would they squander billions every year by buying U.S arms that don’t work ?
Why would they help America overthrow Sadam in Iraq when Sadam was containing Iran ? who is better for them? Sadam or Iran ? obviously Sadam.
why do they push anti-Islam stuff in their media ? read the English version of their paper sites and its all anti-traditionalism .
What interest do they have in getting the natives angry with all this anti-Islam stuff?
if i was the king of Saudi Arabia i would do everything i could to keep the natives on my side as they are much more of an immediate threat .
The only way to explain their constant riling up of the public is that they have been told to do so.
Everything they do goes against their basic self interests.
Humans always act in their own self interest until outside factors come into play.
I don’t know what i can say to convince you.
the entire Alt-right scene have fallen for the jew narrative .
they even believe that Saudi Arabia did 9/11 !
what possible benefit would they get from doing that ?!?!?! ?!
The same gullibility is seen in the left and the HBD ideologues.
I have leftist ” friends” that i’m still in contact with and they speak about Saudi Arabia as if they are masterminds planing the world!
The jews have managed to play both the conservatives and the liberals.
Hitler was right.
Why would they help America overthrow Sadam in Iraq when Sadam was containing Iran ? who is better for them? Sadam or Iran ? obviously Sadam.
Because the goal was to go after Iran next. By your logic Israel would also have no interest in removing Saddam since he was containing Iran, but you clearly don’t believe that.
I’m not saying your overall argument is wrong, but this part is.
On Saddam
He invaded Kuwait, a Gulf ally. He went rogue. But they kept him in power after Desert Storm to be a meat shield vs Iran.
On Syria
Syria is mainly Sunni, but its elite and government are Shia. Assad is a member of the Alawite sect. Most of the ‘rebels’ i.e CIA mercenaries/theatre terrorists are Sunni, trained in and funded by Saud.
On Russia
But Saud doesn’t control the oil price on its own. OPEC does, but even then you have other major non-OPEC nations. Its just not possible you can control the oil price via Saud post fracking.
Their Media
I don’t know. But I do know the Saud state endorses the most extreme form of Islam other than Al Qaeda/ISIS, which is the Wahabi variant. Unlike many muslim nations its very strictly enforced.
You do raise one important point that I don’t know anything about Jimmy when I reconsidered. And that is – why allow Saud/Gulf emiratis have the oil at all? It seems kind of odd to me that Israel wouldn’t take the oil for itself and put a puppet state there.
Per your thinking, that’s maybe what they have done. Put a pliant vassal elite there to control the oil and the money and not have the Middle East go crazy about direct Zion control.
So in an indirect way, maybe you are onto something with the Saudi royalty and emirati elites.
For example, we know Obama did nothing to aid the Arab Spring in the Gulf States unlike North Africa and of course, Syria…..
Maybe you’re right. Its very hard to know. I wouldn’t be surprised that Zion controls Saud on reflection. Interesting perspective.
PP
” Because the goal was to go after Iran next. ”
Do you really think those clowns can think like that?
You severely overestimate their abilities.
They are some of the most incompetent fools the world has ever seen.
There are African despots that are more competent.
” By your logic Israel would also have no interest in removing Saddam since he was containing Iran, but you clearly don’t believe that. ”
No.
The great Saddam was an immediate threat to Israel. In fact, Saddam was more of a threat to Israel than Iran has ever been.
In 1991 when Israel sent America to wage war on Iraq , Saddam responded with missile strikes on Israel.
Those strikes proved that
1. Saddam had the ability to take Israel out
2. Saddam had the balls to do it.
Iran has never even dared to attack Israel.
Also notice how Iran’s nuclear program only got sanctions while Saddam’s got bombed.
The jews know who the men in the middle east are.
Jesus Jimmy, lot’s of good insight from you lately.
But then it begs the question – why keep Saddam there after Desert Storm?

Truly a historic moment. If Tucker knows, it half the conservative establishment knows it, secretly or openly.
The wind of change starts with naming the enemy for what it is:
FUNDAMENTAL YIDDISH TERRORISM
I see Zion banned JP Rushton on UK amazon. Niiiiice.
Rushton is still on Amazon in murica. Maybe American Zion didn’t see it for to remove his books? I bought Altruism, Socialization, and Society off Amazon. (PP have you read that book? It’s when Rushton was a social learning theorist. I’d figure you’d have read this book due to your Rushton obsession. On the other hand, it’s not about race or IQ so you probably didn’t.)
Philosopher,
Just say what it really is: Liberals = Zion.
The way you say it just makes you look stupid because if everything is really was a Jewish conspiracy then no one who supports conservatism would be in power. Your schizo tendencies of paranoia do not rationally make sense in the light of the fact that the agenda comes from personality types not race. it is the personality of those in power that are not all jews that is the reason for Political Correctness. Your obsession of calling everything you do not like Zion shows you do not understand even the basics of the psychology of those in power.
The CIA was infiltrated by Nazis not Jews.
Do you even know about operation paperclip?
We landed on the moon because of Von Braun and the Free Masons.
The New Age Movement of the 60’s – 70’s came from Blavatskys work.
The internet and all computer technology came from Alan Turing and John Von Neuman. Earlier work came from Kurt Godel and Bertrand Russell Principal Mathematica, Peano’s Axioms, David Hilbert and Georg Cantor.
Your occult knowledge is severely lacking.
Do you even know of the pythagorean cult?
Do you know about Hypatia?
Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Heraclitus, Archimedes?
What about Galileo, Copernicus, Dante, Giordano Bruno, Davinci, Michelangelo, Spinoza, Leibniz, Rene Decartes, Goeth, Faust, Kepler, Newton, Voltaire.
The power structures of the world are much bigger and diverse than you think they are philosopher. I have been studying science, art, history, philosophy, geography, sociology, metaphysics, politics, religion, literature and all other kinds of culture since I can remember. Nowhere do I find that zion is as powerful as you think it is. What I find is that power people are the ones who learn everything then can about everything they can find.
As it turns out, IQ tests do not measure theory of mind, self-reflection, wisdom nor objectivity. Intelligence is more than puzzle solving. It is about higher levels of thought. Higher levels of metaphysical understandings of reality. I agree with Chris Langan that you can only measure intelligence by the qualitative comparison of others works and reproductions. I scored 1471 on the SAT yet my WAIS 4 score is 113. On facebook because of my social network they place me at 155. If the NSA really is running a simulation of the entire planet maybe 155 is accurate? Everything is dependent on the correlations and coefficients. IQ tests do not measure everything and their accuracy is questionable. I would not place all my hopes in a system that is unable to measure all forms of pattern recognition.

So operation paperclips was false information?

Did illuminaticat cure his schizophrenia? He seems way more coherent now
Illuminati’s grasp on reality is barely there.
Its not personality. Its race.
You’re confusing the neconservative Lena Dunham social justice platform with real ‘liberalism’, as far as that word means anything anymore.
Neoconservative – social liberal/eco conservative/aggressive foreign policy (towards Zion’s enemies i.e arabs, white nationalists, slavs, possibly Chinese if they get too confident)
I’ve noticed that too. Illuminati fluctuates in coherency. Mind control???
Zion mind control?

Nothing will shake my belief. There’s been nothing I’ve been more certain of my whole life. Behind every lie, every crime against nature, every scam, every racket, every addict, every poor pensioner, every shitty trade deal and every ‘refugee’ lies the dead hand of the Necromancer.
To be fair, its only now the alt right are realising their enemy is not ‘SJW’ or ‘Democrats’ per se. Anymore than the ‘establishment’ or ‘old rich ‘white’ men’ are the left’s real enemy.
In time, the populists must see that the power at the apex of the hierarchy which makes them frustrated and angry is of course, one group with an historical record that makes the Huns and Goths look like honest blokes (and they really were honest barbarians).

Stop bashing intution. The problem in this world is not enough common sense. Not more autism and getting out the ruler.
If we spent 15 years trying to prove genetics effects personality, race, sex, and IQ we’d still have our heads in a toilet like Afro.
Common sense can’t be taught. But it can be rediscovered.
When you see something stupid like a man dressing up like a woman as a child, you thought – this person is odd. Not – this person is a ‘hero’.
I[‘ll tell you waht a fuckin hero is. Someone like Tucker that is debating jew sockpuppets with his hand tied behind his back because if he says it he could literally have his career destroyed even though its fuckin obvious.
Kids don’t like having feminine dads and butch mothers. Its weird. Thats what kids know – intuitively. Everything you lose from being more intuitive in rigor you gain in being generally right.

One day illuminaticat is clearly Schizophrenic, now all of the sudden he’s normal with a hi IQ… maybe when he’s angry or frustrated he becomes more rational?
Also Phil definitely right about everyone of his conspiracies. Although I personally don’t care because it doesn’t effect my daily life.. I’m too worried about reproducing and making sure my investments beat inflation every year to be concerned about Jews running the world. I’m too concerned about my personal future. Call me selfish, I am.
I do not see how jews can influence the culture to such a negative extent without help from the people that want that negative culture wich would be a large number of non-jews. It is like saying that the Hollywood elite are all Illuminati Satanists but no one cares. How the hell can Miley Cyrus be so popular unless people actually like that sort of thing. If America is a Christian nation why don’t we stop the Satanists? It is because so many people love what comes from Hollywood that the money keeps them going. And don’t say the jews control Hollywood. That’s a copout. The average person loves that kind of culture. Without popular demand there would be no money and no Hollywood. Philosophy does not understand supply and demand and he does not understand that cultural addicts to Hollywood are majority non-jews. The real issue is that millions of nonjews love Hollywood, they don’t care that it is run by the Illuminati, they don’t care that jews have influence in Hollywood. They consume the culture because they agree with it.
Philosopher fails to establish that all jews are complacent nor does he understand that a large group of nonjews think Caitlyn Jenner really is a hero. It is not Jewish brain washing, it is the genuine values lots of nonjews have. if 50 percent of Americans can vote for Hillary why can’t 50% of Americans be pro zion because that is their genuine value system. The manufactured magic n-word thing Philosopher talks about is not because of jews, it is because many nonjews value that sort of thing. Philosopher is brainwashing himself into thinking that it is only the jews that are producing the degenerate culture. That is what pisses me off. Many jews are nice people and don’t agree with the negative culture norms we have.
He fails to understand history of the counter culture of the 60’s. And how the industrial revolution began in the enlightenment period. How capitalism and marxism and the military industrial complex are interrelated. The bicameral nature of the human brain. Why Nikola tesla and Edison were at odds with each other. Where technology came from, where religion came from. How astrology Buddhism and Christianity interrelate. The gnostic gospels. The war between Atlantis and Lumeria. How 2012 Mayan calendar was produced. How the Chinese zodiac influences the east. The measurement of time in all civilizations. The origins of the Kabala in Babylon. How the Greeks founded Rome and how paleo-Hebrew began as hieroglyphic offshoot from Egypt hieroglyphs. Abraham came from Babylon to Egypt.

Then watch this:
When you’re finished I want you to consider something that is a key debate in economics:
Does supply create its own demand?
No, that’s why Bernays was hired to find out ways to manipulate people into buying factory excess from WW2. That’s why people use advertising, packaging, endorsements, and use certain imagery with their products – he invented all those things we take for granted. Back in 1946, none of these things were done. Bernays uncle was Freud. I have always defended Freud as a genius, because he was.
But whereas Freud was more like an analyst, his nephew was a practitioner of the dark arts. Since Bernays, the science of brainwashing has come along so much to the point where I think you have to lean somewhat schizo to be naturally immune. You cannot ‘reason’ your way out, because you are already tethered to too many anchors.
If you can understand that people can be psychologically manipulated, given false anchors from birth, and predatorily censored and thought policed….
You will have understood why I view the Jews as the base of all evil in human history going back to the New Kingdom, from whence they came.
As Nietsche has written about extensively – they are masters are inversion of morality. They can both create Christianity and destroy it. But of course, they mainly didn’t like Christianity because it was too soft. Only whites would like something like that.
Now you say you read – but how much can you synthesise? A person with little social intelligence or experience thinks too theoretically. And even then I still ask – can you synthesise?
On the other hand, reading your comment above, its clear you are far more coherent on medications.

PP, how do you know Oprah is the biggest brained female & Black on the planet ?
“PP, how do you know Oprah is the biggest brained female & Black on the planet ?”
He doesn’t know.
It’s an arguable point of course, but there are formulas for estimating brain size from head circumference & Oprah’s estimated brain size is statistically likely to be the biggest in her race & gender.
I go into great detail here:
https://brainsize.wordpress.com/2014/07/06/the-brain-size-of-the-worlds-most-successful-woman/
Of course you have scientifically measured Oprah’s head circumference as well as that of every woman and black person in the world. And I suppose you have taken brain shrinkage due to age into account so you’ve measured Oprah’s brain size at its peak in her 20s…
Now let’s get back to the real world, the biggest brain on earth belong to an anonymous person, probably suffering pathological megacephaly. The biggest functional black brain belongs to a black African male and the biggest female brain belongs to a white women. They are both anonymous persons in their 20s.
Of course you have scientifically measured Oprah’s head circumference as well as that of every woman and black person in the world.
Oprah’s head has been measured by hatters and she has to have her hats custom made to fit her head. Obviously no one has measured every black or female cranium, but enough have been measured to statistically predict the range of normal brain size.
And I suppose you have taken brain shrinkage due to age into account so you’ve measured Oprah’s brain size at its peak in her 20s…
I’m not saying Oprah had the biggest brain every year of her life, but her huge head circumference suggests that perhaps at some point in her life she arguably had the biggest brain in her race and gender, especially since world population was smaller when she was in her 20s, so much less competition. I just think it’s cool that arguably the biggest brained member of entire race and gender (at some point in her life) became arguably the most successful member of her race and gender (at some point in her life).
Now let’s get back to the real world, the biggest brain on earth belong to an anonymous person, probably suffering pathological megacephaly.
Pathological megacephaly is often caused by brain fluid (not actual brain size) or by a brain that is super-sized in childhood but by adulthood is actually smaller than average.
The biggest functional black brain belongs to a black African male
Given the sub-optimum nutrition in Africa, the biggest black brain is probably not there.
“Oprah’s head has been measured by hatters and she has to have her hats custom made to fit her head.”
All wealthy women have custom made hats, and measurements include the hairdo worn with each hat.
“but enough have been measured to statistically predict the range of normal brain size.”
Not at all, and from what we know, most of West Africa has cranial volumes in the same range as the two southern third of Europe as well as Japan. And these figures come from an old study, many things must have changed since then, many meaning full variables might have not been controlled for.
” but her huge head circumference suggests that perhaps at some point in her life she arguably had the biggest brain in her race and gender”
No, and it’s even more likely than my brain is bigger than hers in her 20s:
-She was born poor in the 50s Jim Crow south, I was born poor in the 90s Haiti. Spent most of my early life in a Catholic orphan home so I might not have been that badly fed.
-I grew up much, much, much richer than Oprah, I think I’m richer than her in her 20s. So it’s clear that I have been much better fed before reaching my peak brain size. I’ve skipped a grade, been a top student, graduated from an elite college, meanwhile, she was doing ratchet things like becoming pregnant at 15.
-I’m an athletic 6’2″ male, she’s an overweight 5’6″ female. This alone puts me in a much higher predicted brain size percentile, even controlling for age. My head doesn’t look that disproportionally huge though, my hair is cut short but if I compare with my girlfriend, my head is much bigger and she’s a 5’10” tall Caucasian, Panthéon-Sorbonne graduate, born rich in the 90s France.
“Pathological megacephaly is often caused by brain fluid (not actual brain size) or by a brain that is super-sized in childhood but by adulthood is actually smaller than average.”
Nothing like that:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalencephaly
“Given the sub-optimum nutrition in Africa, the biggest black brain is probably not there.”
Yet the tallest black person obviously lives there, and since most African countries have a median age around 20 years, Africa probably has the largest population of people in their brain size peak period.
All wealthy women have custom made hats, and measurements include the hairdo worn with each hat.
Even when Oprah went briefly bald in her twenties, the TV station could not find a wig big enough to fit her head
Not at all, and from what we know, most of West Africa has cranial volumes in the same range as the two southern third of Europe as well as Japan.
East Asian Americans have bigger crania than white Americans who have bigger crania than African Americans, and given that American nutrition makes black Americans nearly 1 standard deviation taller than their West African cousins, it’s likely that they are nearly 1 SD larger in brain size too.
-She was born poor in the 50s Jim Crow south, I was born poor in the 90s Haiti.
When it comes to nutrition, 90s Haiti was probably worse. The average height in Haiti is several inches below African American height.
-I grew up much, much, much richer than Oprah, I think I’m richer than her in her 20s. So it’s clear that I have been much better fed before reaching my peak brain size.
But your prenatal and early infancy environment was in Haiti and that’s where the brain does most of its growing. And the wealth of the country one grows up in has a much bigger effect on one’s brain growth than the wealth of one’s household.
I’ve skipped a grade, been a top student, graduated from an elite college, meanwhile, she was doing ratchet things like becoming pregnant at 15.
Oprah could read by the time she was three, skipped two grades, and despite growing up in poverty, briefly attended an elite high school (though she left after getting pregnant)
-I’m an athletic 6’2″ male, she’s an overweight 5’6″ female. This alone puts me in a much higher predicted brain size percentile, even controlling for age.
She’s 5’7″, not 5’6″. And yes, a man your size should have a much bigger brain than she does, but the fact that her cranium is so much bigger than yours, makes it extremely unlikely that you do. And her encephalization quotient (brain size relative to body size) is even more impressive.
My head doesn’t look that disproportionally huge though, my hair is cut short but if I compare with my girlfriend, my head is much bigger and she’s a 5’10” tall Caucasian, Panthéon-Sorbonne graduate, born rich in the 90s France.
Your girl was born in Morocco and even elites in poor countries suffer from sub-optimum prenatal nutrition as you did being born in Haiti. The good news is your kids might be much smarter than you two are, because they’ll have your genes but with a first world biological environment
Nothing like that:
Nothing in that link contradicts me
Yet the tallest black person obviously lives there, and since most African countries have a median age around 20 years, Africa probably has the largest population of people in their brain size peak period.
But when Oprah was in her twenties, her brain was arguably bigger than any in sub-Saharan Africa, especially since Africa’s population was much smaller than.
“Even when Oprah went briefly bald in her twenties, the TV station could not find a wig big enough to fit her head”
Source ? Moreover, even if she had a big head for a woman, there must have been black men with exceptionally large heads at the same time.
“East Asian Americans have bigger crania than white Americans who have bigger crania than African Americans, ”
Why do you restrict your comparison population to the US while you attribute a worldwide record to Oprah. There are 500 million West Africans and they are young, 40 million African Americans and barely 10 million East Asian Americans. Population size alone makes it much more likely that the biggest brained black is West African and that the biggest brained female is not black.
“When it comes to nutrition, 90s Haiti was probably worse. The average height in Haiti is several inches below African American height.”
No, blacks lived in third world conditions in the segregated South. Haitians in the 90s probably enjoyed the same economic situation, plus advancements in medicine and food productivity. Plus I was in a Catholic institution, not starving at all, and with nutritionally-aware caregivers I assume.
“And the wealth of the country one grows up in has a much bigger effect on one’s brain growth than the wealth of one’s household.”
France has a much better overall health profile than the US.
“briefly attended an elite high school ”
Through a social program.
“though she left after getting pregnant”
Ghetto as fuck.
“but the fact that her cranium is so much bigger than yours”
How do you know ?
“Your girl was born in Morocco”
No, she was born in the wealthy western inner suburbs of Paris, one of the richest area in Europe and the world. Her father and maternal grandparents were born in Morocco.
“The good news is your kids might be much smarter than you two are”
Sigh… I don’t care about the size of my brain. The only sizes that matter to me are that of my biceps, my pecs and my dick as well as my girl’s boobs and butt. And our kids, I just want them to be happy.
“Nothing in that link contradicts me”
No mention of fluids nor brains that start too big and end up too small.
“But when Oprah was in her twenties, her brain was arguably bigger than any in sub-Saharan Africa”
She was certainly not the biggest brained black in America and the Caribbean, there were already rich young black men who grew up in the north of the US or were part of the Caribbean elite.

But Oprah’s estimated brain size is so large, that the odds of another black or woman matching her are theoretically billions to one, and if that’s true in the World’s richest country, it’s especially true worldwide.
No, blacks lived in third world conditions in the segregated South. Haitians in the 90s probably enjoyed the same economic situation, plus advancements in medicine and food productivity.
Even as far back as World War I, there was virtually no height difference between U.S. blacks and whites, suggesting that even under extreme racism, they had white levels of nutrition, simply because they lived in the United States. Although there is great cultural inequality within countries, the biological environment tends to be similar for all social classes.
Plus I was in a Catholic institution, not starving at all, and with nutritionally-aware caregivers I assume.
It doesn’t matter if you’re nutritionally aware if the stores don’t sell foods that are fortified with vitamins and if disease is in the air.
France has a much better overall health profile than the US.
Then why is the average height in France the same as in America, despite the fact that France has fewer non-whites (who tend to be shorter)?
Through a social program.
You could claim the same about every black American who attends an elite school. One could say you attended an elite school because of extreme socio-economic privilege.
Ghetto as fuck.
She was raised in the ghetto and sexually abused. What’s your excuse? 🙂
How do you know ?
Since you love posting pictures of yourself, post one showing the top of your head with a tape measure wrapped tightly around:
Sigh… I don’t care about the size of my brain.
Then stop wasting your time arguing about topics you don’t care about.
No mention of fluids nor brains that start too big and end up too small.
Wikipedia is mostly written by non-specialists who don’t have access to the latest imaging studies published in peer reviewed journals and hidden from public view by pay walls.
She was certainly not the biggest brained black in America and the Caribbean, there were already rich young black men who grew up in the north of the US or were part of the Caribbean elite.
Elite or not, they still lived in the Caribbean and were dragged down by the sub-optimum nutrition and poor health care of their entire societies, and while some may have escaped this, their numbers were too small to make a super sized brain probable
“And her encephalization quotient (brain size relative to body size) is even more impressive.”
We can compare human EQs? Sauce?
We can compare human EQs? Sauce?
EQ is just a formula telling you how big your brain is compared to the average animal/mammal your size. Rushton used it once to compare the races, but was criticised by Jensen of all people for not using a human specific formula for body size adjustment
Source for Jensen’s comment on Rushton? And yea, within species, total neurons in the cerebral cortex would be a better predictor or cognitive ability.
Damn, being kind increases your IQ.

As of today, I’ve decided to transition to becoming a Jew….
I did this because I wasn’t getting enough money as a black man.
Now, I’m going to be a jew from now on.
(Rubs hands)
one of the two main writers of south park was a Jew.
Jews are allowed to make jew jokes but their victims aren’t.
Also notice how every jew-wise figure is portrayed as crazy and ignorant.
iluminaticat, when you become a minority in your own country will you still be pro-Jew?
Just because I am white does not mean I think all whites are good people. The forces of history don’t care about people that never planned for the future. I understand how the 60’s were influenced by the great depression. my grandmother was born in 1917. I understand how Alex jones thinks the elite want global depopulation agenda. He is too crazy to understand that the science behind it was wrong and he is too crazy to realize that most elite people understand today that the science is wrong. I am a millennial and I understand how baby boomers think. I understand how ecological-anarchists think. Everything that people think is the problem is not the problem. When robots decimate all jobs or when we start realizing moon and mars colonization who will care about being a white minority. Virtual reality and augmented reality is coming. Robots are coming. The future is a scifi world.
Do you not know where we are heading. Do you think Google and Microsoft and Facebook don’t have plans. Minority Report is not a movie it will be reality. I robot is not a movie it will become reality.
Carl Marx this is that technology drives history. The US military understands technology. Only the smartest soldiers become leaders in the hierarchy. As long as the elites have the highest IQs it does not matter that whites become the minority. the high IQ elites will see what is happening and where the future is going. Right now 1 billion white people exist and because of the agenda all the high IQ whites and the other races have already been selected. The elites have the supercomputers and they have their plans.

Pumpkin did you check out Darknet?
Not yet but I did find a decent horror film on Netflix: The Harvest
i’ll watch it with my dude on Friday. Sounds like a great netflix and chill session haha.
An even better Netflix horror to watch is called “creep”
Very scary
Illuminaticat when he’s on his meds may be the smartest most intelligent person here.
what do you think about the young white couple in Georgia,sentenced to 30 years in prison for displaying Confederate flags and yelling the “n word” at a black family?

Tucker is talking about mass surveillance on FOX.
He is in big big big trouble. If he keeps talking like this he will be killed. They must have warned him. I remember Phil Donahoue got removed from air for speaking against Iraq…on the ‘liberal’ MSNBC.
Tucker is proving that they are not all shills.
And he’s proving me right about Murdoch….
Murdoch has been waiting his whole life I imagine to get one over on his ‘competitors’. Ahahahah.
The worst aspect of the NSA is that it allows the jews to spy on all their enemies and ‘read their minds’, people like Trump and Tucker for example.
The best measure is to go dark or start literally using paper messages for these guys. Or encrypt everything.
“On 27 January 2013, on the occasion of the Holocaust Remembrance Day, Berlusconi said the Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, except for passing anti-Jewish laws in 1938, only had done “good things” for Italy; and also said Mussolini from a strategic point of view did the right thing in siding with Adolf Hitler during World War II, because Hitler at the point of time when the alliance was made had appeared to be winning the war.”
I’m coming around to the idea Berlusconi was actually one of the good guys. He was harassed by the Economist (Rothschild) and the courts.
Its because he had the strongest immigration policy in Europe.
Once you open the borders in Italy, all hell breaks loose.
Not a day goes by where the conspiracy doesn’t become more apparent.
Animekitty knocked it out of the park with his earlier. It’s funny, the ostensibly insane guy is the most sane here.
Anime makes a point similar to one that Geoffrey Miller makes in Spent: That vapid pop culture, rampant materialism, degenerate social values, and the fetishization of perversion and stupidity wouldn’t exist if it didnt appeal to the basest desires of the American public. The elites don’t force us to like the utter garbage fed us to by the media; rather, we instinctually gravitate towards it because it tickles the nether regions of our reptilian brains.
The “One World Order ” globalist, pro-immigration propaganda crap feeds into the hardwired universalist sympathies of SWPLs, while the Kardashians and reality TV crap feeds into the hardwired desires of proles. The elites don’t have to induce us to be that way; we actively seek out crap messages and entertainment regardless of who produces them, and modern communication technology allows us to do so. Our world is hopeless, not because of the grip the elites have on our minds, but because the human species is genetically destined to fail.
Sad!

Times have changed
And we’ve often rewound the clock
Since the Puritans got a shock
When they landed on Plymouth Rock.
If today
Any shock they should try to stem
‘Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock,
Plymouth Rock would land on them.
In olden days, a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking.
But now, God knows,
Anything goes.
Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writing prose.
Anything goes.
If driving fast cars you like,
If low bars you like,
If old hymns you like,
If bare limbs you like,
If Mae West you like,
Or me undressed you like,
Why, nobody will oppose.
When ev’ry night the set that’s smart is in-
Truding in nudist parties in
Studios.
Anything goes.
When Missus Ned McLean (God bless her)
Can get Russian reds to “yes” her,
Then I suppose
Anything goes.
When Rockefeller still can hoard en-
Ough money to let Max Gordon
Produce his shows,
Anything goes.
The world has gone mad today
And good’s bad today,
And black’s white today,
And day’s night today,
And that gent today
You gave a cent today
Once had several chateaux.
When folks who still can ride in jitneys
Find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys
Lack baby clo’es,
Anything goes.
If Sam Goldwyn can with great conviction
Instruct Anna Sten in diction,
Then Anna shows
Anything goes.
When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up
Now turns a handspring landing up-
On her toes,
Anything goes.
Just think of those shocks you’ve got
And those knocks you’ve got
And those blues you’ve got
From that news you’ve got
And those pains you’ve got
(If any brains you’ve got)
From those little radios.
So Missus R., with all her trimmin’s,
Can broadcast a bed from Simmons
‘Cause Franklin knows
Anything goes.
This describes our degenerate times. Only a degenerate homo like Cole Porter could’ve understood…

Pharrell Just Got a Major French Arts Award
What can’t Pharrell Williams do? The style and music icon can wear high fashion with ease, sets trends every time he steps on the red carpet, and makes Grammy Award–winning music too. Did we also mention that he’s a father?
Williams once again traveled to Paris during fashion week, but this time he had a separate, pretty momentous purpose for being in the City of Light. On Monday he was presented with France’s Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (aka Order of Arts and Letters) honor in Paris for his contribution to the arts.
Audrey Azoulay, France’s minister of culture, presented the green and white medal to the 43-year-old, who welcomed triplets with his wife earlier this year.
Williams noted that “France is the center of art,” at the ceremony and expressed that he was “grateful” for the honor, according to the Associated Press. Then on Tuesday, Pharrell took to the Chanel fall 2017 show and posed alongside Karl Lagerfeld.
Williams is in great company as Michael Keaton and Sharon Stone have received France’s prestigious Order of Arts and Letters honor in the past. With new music possibly in the works from his uber-popular group N.E.R.D., we can already guess that this might be the star’s biggest year yet.

Crisis[edit]
According to the authors, the Fourth Turning is a Crisis. This is an era of destruction, often involving war, in which institutional life is destroyed and rebuilt in response to a perceived threat to the nation’s survival. After the crisis, civic authority revives, cultural expression redirects towards community purpose, and people begin to locate themselves as members of a larger group.[41] The authors say the previous Fourth Turning in the US began with the Wall Street Crash of 1929 and climaxed with the end of World War II. The G.I. Generation (which they call a Hero archetype, born 1901 to 1924) came of age during this era. They say their confidence, optimism, and collective outlook epitomized the mood of that era.[42] The authors assert the Millennial Generation (which they also describe as a Hero archetype, born 1981 to 2004) show many similar traits to those of the G.I. youth, which they describe as including: rising civic engagement, improving behavior, and collective confidence.[43]

I tend to agree, brotha!
Cole Porter is fabulus!!!!
Why only gays lke Broadway, it’s beuaitufl and all people men and women can enjoy, theres Gershwin, SOndheim, Porter, Kern, andrey lloyd weber, it’s America’s greatest Art form in my opinion, better than porn at least.
I love Jonny Mathis, he is so beautiful!!!:
Illuminaticat is definitely a genius. maybe not IQ wise, but definitely in his ability to process and store massive amounts of USEFUL information. Those autistic genes combined with schizophrenic genes of his are finally working out for him.
In a couple weeks he might even have a girlfriend.
The guy is completely autistic.
You’re confusing psychosis with shiz type thinking.
The guy is as bread and butter as you get in many ways.
If I stuck you in a cage and cattle prodded you for 15 days, you would go psychotic as well, even though you have no known schiz tendencies. People go psychotic from stress, fatigue and emotional pain.
I just don’t see any inherent schiz tendency is his word use, thinking, and hobbies/interests.
Schiz hate hate hate computers and ‘AI’.
Technology is the safestrefue for the aspy – its inanimate, does what the rules say and makes someone think they’ve changed something. Marx’s analysis was technology changed society, but the people can change it to make it better – which they did.
I genuinely don’t understand the fascination with AI, robots, video games, and computers. Maybe I’m just a dumb girl but like that stuff isn’t interesting at all to me. I get movies, literature, history, etc. But the techno-sciencey stuff is just so bleh
Yeah, most people you meet in Mensa or these other high IQ type things have object fetishes – electronics, computers, cards, engineering, machinery, numerology. I never looked at my computer and thought ‘how does that work?’ or ‘how many clouds are there in the sky?’.
“I never looked at my computer and thought ‘how does that work?’ or ‘how many clouds are there in the sky?’.”
Do you view those preferences as something “bad”?
I’ve similarly never been heads over heels with technology, with the exception of the Internet. I taught myself some basic HTML when I was little because I thought websites were fascinating. But I’ve never had the mechanical, object-oriented, male-typical obsession with understanding how gears, motors, pistons, etc. work together, or had a strong desire to learn how physical systems work.
This cognitive orientation was only problematic to the extent that all the men in my family do have a bent towards technology, mechanics, and tinkering, and growing up, they had some disdain for my greater focus and interest in history, politics, etc.
On the flip side I’ve always had a strong appreciation for nature and enjoy travelling and hiking.
Something about the fringe, heterodox thinking and personalities on this blog induced me to drink. I came into work hungover this morning (I very rarely get hangovers, even when drinking heavily). I think my boss notices. This blog may not be good for your health.

Schizophrenics like philosopher are driven by emotion just like autists. But that emotion happens in different ways. Shcizos are attuned to the emotions such that they feel the minds of others and are swayed by them. It goes deep into the instinct where as philosopher said, that blacks show more schizo traits and Asians show more autist traits. Instinct is what Carl Jung called Introverted sensing. It is that animalistic view on the world. Predation, procreation, safety, fight and flight and food. Autists emotion is completely divorced from the social aspect. If they watch a cartoon they get attached to the characters because they are cool. To the autists the characters are following that same emotion the autist thinks is good. Autist follow the logic of the character and schizos follow the primal emotions (can I fuck them, will they try and kill me). Autists (cars are so cool, Optimus prime is cool because he is a hero that leads the Autobots against the evil Decepticons).
Philosopher is not INTJ. He is ISTJ. I now know why I get the feelings I get from him. He is empirical as with Te and he is instinctual as per Si. Myself I am now thinking i am the one who is actual INTJ not philosopher. Introverted Intuition is archetypal. Its models of reality derive from mysticism. The saying “all is one” and “as above so bellow” both are with Ni. Philosopher does not like master. Jung said There would be no prophets of Isis Ra and El (Israel) without Ni dominants. Philosopher can’t stand what goes against his Si but like an animal can’t understand higher aspects of metaphysics philosopher feels something wrong but can’t explain it. Schizos feel something wrong and make up rationalization for what is wrong. My sister brought a person to my house and he said a cat was biting his head and foot. There was no cat, it was all in his mind. Philosopher is the same. he feels something is wrong and rationalizes an answer that is just in his mind.
If I was really autistic my emotions would be totally divorced from the social aspect of reality. I do not see people from the lens of instinct (Si), I view them from Ni (mysticism). I feel a deeper meaning from people and objects that what most do. Symbolism is above rationalization. The meaning behind events and symbols all derive from Ni. What if the meaning behind the tree of life? What is God? If I were truly autist I would immediately grasp onto these symbols as good or evil. But then there is also neutral. Autists are swayed by emotion and devoid of the meaning symbols have to other people. Everything is either cool or stupid to autists. To schizos these symbols go into them as an animal would face it.
I do not ignore people like autists do because I understand that I am not the only person there. I do not only talk about what I am interested in. If Philosopher knows anything he should know that people are animals. I know intuitively what make a person who they are. So I must treat an animal in a different way than I would a human being. If you understand the zodiac you understand that humans are different animals on the inside. Human beings can control their animal side. Those that can’t control it will be ruled by it and show it in their behavior. I can see it in people and that is how I know if the person in front of me will understand what I am saying. The animal side of a person is the reason I have had so much trouble with people. You can have a good relationship with animals but if you wish to have a meaningful relationship you need to be a human being. You need to control your animal side.
If you watch an animal you understand it’s instincts. Philosopher rationalizes everything he sees in people by it. He thinks I am an autist because the autist is a particular animal to him. An animal with no instinct. Domesticated. The elites had said that because humanity is domesticated that the true elite must retain their wild side to control domesticated humanity. Mind control is really instinct control. Philosopher thinks only the jews have this understanding. That is why he calls them master. He does not understand that gentiles perfectly understand instinct also. The bible calls 666 the number of man, the mark of the beast. If every man has an animal side then only the christ can control it. What is christ? When christ was transfigured his face shined with the golden light of the sun.
The snake represents the spine and it represents the primordial instincts of man. The fall of man was when the snake (instincts) told eve to eat from the tree of knowledge. Adam and eve realized they were naked and were cast out. They were prevented from eating from the tree of life or they would live forever. When you are naked in front of the opposite sex you realize why nakedness is covered by cloth. The tree of life is the release of inhibition. Sex is so shameful to people because they are scared of exposed. It shows us that we are animals. This is why woman are hated in all masculine religions. Dominance is masculine and submissiveness is feminine.
Dominate men hate being dominated because they reject their submissive side. When you hate submissiveness you hate woman. You try to control the sexual relations people have. Why did the priests hate Jesus, he preached submissiveness. If you hate woman then you also hate Jesus. Why do people hate jews, their morality teaches submissiveness. Their morality says that everyone should be like woman. If you reject you feminine side you will hate jews. Hitler said that he would replace christ. he murdered gays and the handicapped. His father beat him every day well his mother did nothing. Hitler loved the Kieser and hated the bolsheviks for killing the Zar.
The difference between liberals and conservatives is the right and left brain. The political left is right brained, the political right is left brained. Atlantis is left brained, Lumeria is right brained. The sun and the moon are their symbols. Jews are right brained because of the moon (femininity). And the majority of the extreme left politics are right brained. They are behaviorists, they think operant conditioning can shape man into anything, it is why the famine in Russia happened, it is the religion of the social justice warriors. Hitler was left brained. he was conservative. He saw how the jews controlled the media because of their right-brained nature and he hardened himself against all things right brained. The problem is that everyone has both a left and a right brain. When the sun is at war with the moon abomination of desolation occurs. Anarchists are destroyers. Hilary Clinton is an anarchist. Trump is an authoritarian. But Trump is not at war with the moon as Hitler was. He cares about the handicapped, he would never send them to ovens.
Philosopher does not get the meaning behind the sun and the moon. If he only understood left and right brain he would get why the harmony behind sun and moon is important. Is Caitlyn Jenner a hero? Is Justin Bieber really a Christian as he says he is? I believe Shia LaBeouf is more genuine than Justine Bieber. Our instincts only go so far if we allow them to make us animals without higher judgments. Schizos attribute what is in others minds to things that exist only in their minds, artists don’t understand minds. If philosopher is ISTJ and schizo then he is not intuitive. His instincts about people may be right but he doesn’t understand why they are right. Only an intuitive can know why his intuitions are correct. Si is primal mind and Ni is higher mind. Ni can know who a person is at almost a psychic level. The difference between an animal and an angle is distinct. Man was made from animal and angel. We have the higher mind but we also have serpent in the spine.

Technically the left brain right brain hypothesis is garbage.
But you’re right, moderation is key. Both the sun and moon are required for the sustainment of life. Extremism is almost always fallacious.
Ok , this post was harder to read and understand.
How can anyone have a 160 IQ, or even a 150 IQ , when IQ tests were standardized on around 2,000 people?
For example, the WAIS was normed on 2,200 people.
The expected rarity of a 160 IQ is 1 in 31,560 ( 15 S.D) so how on earth can these IQ tests have a ceiling of 160 ?
Its impossible for any IQ test to give an IQ above 149, but they all do.
Each individual subtest has a ceiling that puts you in the top 1 in 2000 level and then they can statistically predict that only 1 in 30,000 will hit the ceiling on all 11 or so subtests. That’s how they can measure IQs as high as 160
statistically predicting is one thing, but saying that those who are capable of answering question 60 have an IQ of 160, is another thing.
How do they design the test items when they only have 2,200 people ?
How would they know that the ” hardest” question was a question that only someone with a 160 IQ could answer?
What does it mean if someone can correctly answer the 60th(last) question on the Ravens test?
Well on the wechsler, no individual item requires more than 135 IQ in any particular domain, but getting every item on a subtest right takes a 145 IQ on that subtest, and scoring 145 on every subtest takes an overall IQ around 160
Not sure how the advanced raven was normed
Yes this is a puzzle. how can low IQ psychologists (130) make questions that are above their IQ level. Only people with IQ’s of 160 could make a test with questions above IQ 130. How is the test made if the IQ of the test makers is not above 130?
“Well on the wechsler, no individual item requires more than 135 IQ in any particular domain, but getting every item on a subtest right takes a 145 IQ ”
That’s like saying that you need to be 6 ft tall to touch the ceiling of any room in a house , but it takes a height of 7 ft to touch all ceilings in the house.
“Any time you read about an IQ higher than 150, be dubious. No major IQ test is designed to be accurate at much more than 3 std. deviations.”—Charles Murray

No, I follow Murray and read all of his tweets.
