In the following video Tulsi Gabbard warns America NOT to invade Iran.
However not even Oprah could stop the war with Iraq, despite hosting a series of anti-war shows to it in the few months before it began:
Why are these wars so hard to stop? And why do even Presidents like Trump , Obama, and George W. Bush, who campaigned against them, suddenly start supporting them once they get into office?
Commenter philosopher believes there’s a secret elite he calls “Master” who orders the Presidsent around once he gets into power. So why do people run for President if they’re just going to be bossed around once they get there? Perhaps they think that by getting elected President, they’ll be in charge, but only once they get there does Master reveal himself.

While this may sound like a psychotic delusion, there are similar theories to explain the Fermi Paradox. In the fabulous after-on pocast, it was suggested that the reason we’ve never been visited by aliens is that a Master species of aliens has ordered all advanced life in the galaxy to leave us alone, and if we too become technologically advanced enough to visit distant planets, these Master aliens will reveal themselves to us too, and tell us what the rules are.
It could work the same way in American society. You never find out about the secret elite running things until you gain enough power for Master to reveal himself to you.
Do I actually believe this? Not in the literal way philosopher does. I believe “Master” is better understood as a metaphor for the huge lobbying groups that buy politicians, but I don’t believe there are any independent individuals ordering most recent presidents around. But it would make a great horror film!
Pumpkin, what careers are good for people with high Spatial Intelligence.
Architect, Pilot, Sea captain, Surgeon, Engineer*, Physicist*, mathematician*, Rocket scientist, Some qualified fabric worker, Landscape Gardener, Property Surveyor, Music composer*, Movie director*, painter, Sculptor, Video games designer, TV series Script writer*, Flat decorator, Chef (in particular recipe inventor) etc
The one with *, you are also competing with high verbal who can access the same results by symbolic reasoning (not images and spatial relationship among things and concepts).
Extreme high verbal could also do rocket scientist but only for the most complex tasks. Else they would be to slow compared to high spatial ppl.
Internal medicine* is also a full high spatial and (very) high verbal field, with an advantage to spatial except for the top 2% of the pbs …

Holy macaroni, Rahul Gandhi clearly has some strong Aryan genes.
The first pic still looks pretty Indian, but this one his facial pattern is pretty white.
His mother is italian.
Yeah managed to figure that out after my posts lol
Philo,
Exane article doesn’t tell more. Neither Bolsonaro alleged comments neither the article structure make much sense. President is at a Brazilian chamber of commerce meeting for enhancing business with the USA and tell that Bresil international tourism can’t be only gay because they are families to protect there. The article doesn’t tell how much money the gay industry (mostly tourism I suppose) represents.
In France we call that « café du commerce » talks ….

Bozo is near to impeachment because he is a complete idiot. Anyone who understand hbd knows beyond capitalism/parasitism lower intelligence is the biggest treat for any nation. Surprisingly or not many hbdearest seems Trump and Bozo are respectively smarter and enough to be president. It’s all about despise heuristics in inconvenient facts tô capitalist ideology and combine with IQism where the quantitative value worth more than qualitative. Doesn’r your IQ if you believe profits is more important than environment. Indeed its shows you’re dangerous and not a IQ-genius. Your value and fact system matter more than your estimated potential. Bozo want to replace universal previdence by particular/coorporativist, even many countries which adopted this model come back to universal. Chile faillure experience where great part of retired people live in poverty margin is a huge example. Even right winger countries, now, as Hungary and Italy have avoid “private ” previdence system. But some fake socialists prefer a homophobic president even he is totally savage capitalist in his Policy..
Previdence = pension system
How can I, LOADED, be an autist? I’m clearly a savant genius that people would give their right hand to be. Not a very unjustifiable statement either.
Pumpkin, are Autists proven to have lower picture arrangement scores than neurotypicals? Is it also true that high anxiety=higher verbal IQ?
1) yes
2) I don’t know

Trying to prevent a war with calm common sense rarely works, especially in emotion driven, elite controlled America. It just allows you to say “I told you so” later, for whatever that’s worth. My sense is that Rep. Gabbard is one of the most honest (maybe THE most honest) and sincere Democrat presidential hopefuls, which means there’s no hope she could win.

I can’t talk about how the test is scored. That’s confidential.
Just listened to Scott Barry Kaufman interview of Robert Plomin. It interesting because it’s the only interview were Plomin is really challenged intellectually. Kaufman is quite insidious, and a bit vicious, and Plomin got a bit emotional, despite him towering Kaufman.
The interesting part is after the first hour and 10 minutes. It’s true that when jewish speaks about each other works, they tend to throw away epithetes like brilliant. When they speak about goyim they disagree with, they will say they are not nuance or resolute enough or any antonyms they can through away.
I guess many bright scholars from prole background like Plomin know that despite being anti-Trump and liberal. Its just their daily bread.
Towered over him physically or intellectually?
Intellectually. I didn’t have any image.
It’s the first time I listened to Scott Barry Kaufman. He was very knowledgeable and able to think quick on his feet. But Plomin had by far the upper hand.
Plomin is playing the modest but showed is true self when attacked with real argument.
This article shows exactly the viciousness of the guy one could perceive during the interview : the mixture of flattery and despective comments, an arbitrator position not owed by any reason and a proclamation of scientific unbiased attitude. Really quite nasty when it comes from someone intelligent and well versed – so it seems – in the field.
I am happy I didn’t become a scientist !

*Radiation.
Also some extra corners regarding Yamashita and East Asian war mongering (which I suspect there’s much of). Yamashita was actually against Japan fighting the east Asian power (which includes USA and Britain) and preferred an more diplomatic approach for Japanese geopolitical interests. He was in the minority despite being very smart, dependable, famous and correct. Despite that the nation of Japan fought like crazy. So we’ll se what the what the Chinese will do when in the conditions mentioned above.

Comments. Geez commenting on the phone sure is hard. It requires an IQ above 130 for sure.
So we are seeing Chinese authoritarianism rise, presumably to prepare for an war economy, “nationalise the people”, improve the economy, fight of traitors and give the credit of advancement to the ruling party. North Korea is also an extension of China, North Korea is not independent.
I said raze in weeks, but with the right arrangements it can be done in days, or less than a day. Even if you have super lazers (like what Russia is looking in to) the heat caused by all of the energy could cook the air if enough missiles are launched, but if done before the kinetic missile is properly launched it could work. Donald trump’s space force doesn’t seem that crazy now huh? Navies are going to be vulnerable to kinetic missiles, aircraft carriers are not only going to need air support but space support! Expect U-boats to make a comeback.
The Chinese are going to try to court the rest of Asia to join them, that would give them an intense numerical advantage, as well as Africa’s an Americans resources as an bargaining chip for the poor non-chinese Asian worker classes. This would make Chinese big business and government support large government policies that would enrich the locals greatly and be very enticing for the poor workers of South East asia (and maybe south asia). The Chinese elites in those regions would become more pro-china and more anti-western, and thus being great agents in forming propaganda.
So the fronts would be:
The Central Asian mountains
Siberia
The Indian Ocean.
The Pacific
Space
South and central Africa (the rainforest).
The wars effect on climate change would be huge, that’s another mayor reason why China would need an pan-asian alliance.
This comment was intended to be an continuation of this https://pumpkinperson.com/2019/05/18/tulsi-gabbard-tries-to-stop-a-war-with-iran/comment-page-2/#comment-134715 comment, but it winded up here.
Massive lasers can’t detect all missiles before they are launched though, and that’s why I said weeks becuase some missiles would get by while others not. It would be an imperfect defensive syatem, that wouldn’t create total coverage, which would be crucial considering the destructive capabilitiea
Pumpkin, aren’t oral and written expression achievement test things? Wouldn’t it be counterintuitive to measure them on an IQ test (ok, they don’t measure it directly, but it’s an influence. However, it’s an influence you can’t take out, but since most people don’t have verbal expression difficulties, it doesn’t really change the norms).
So I figured out what makes Bill Gates, Genghis Khan, Napoleon Bonaparte, etc.
Such exceptionally successful outliers.
They all have this exceptionally rare, probably genetic ability, to turn their greatest weakness into their greatest strength.
Napoleon conquered all of Europe despite only being average to short in stature. 5ft2 to 5ft7. He also constantly surrounded himself with very tall men.
The fact that he surrounded himself with taller male ally’s is a classic way for primates to become alpha males when they themselves are small. He instinctively knew how to build an army.
More importantly HE WAS UNDERESTIMATED. Which in turn allowed him to acquire power when others had their guard down.
Bill Gates not only invented the PC but also founded Microsoft. Again a nerdy looking software developer type, creating an international business hierarchy? pft yeah right .
Again, underestimated by others and thus able to acquire power.
Ghengis Khan is the ultimate example. Statistically he was the least likely guy to even survive into old age, let alone become the most reproductively successful human to have ever lived.
His clan abandoned him and his family when he was a child. His 1st wife was stolen. but somehow he overcame every single adversity. He overcame every single statistical setback and odd. How?
Underestimation. When his wife got stolen, the kidnappers did not Kill Ghengis and his brother, because they were still teenagers at the time and lets just say the kidnappers paid for their mistake.
When people constantly underestimate you, it can allow you to defy expectations, and reach statistically near impossible heights.
Bill Gates did not invent the P.C
Whatever. I’ve learned a few things from this blog, and most importantly, I have to say, is not to take things personally and the fact that you may not have control over everything. Other people have control of the situation so it’s best to let go and let them screw up. Thanks, Pumpkin.
