[The following is a guest post by Ganzir and does not necessarily reflect the views of Pumpkin Person]
Let us make the following assumptions to simplify an illustrative example, although they are unnecessary for such an effect to arise.
- Intelligence is normally distributed.
- Our model intelligence test item has an item characteristic curve, i.e., graph with intelligence on the x-axis and probability of solving the item on the y-axis, with a break-even point, i.e., the IQ at which 50% of people solve it, of 130.
- This item’s characteristic curve is symmetrical in that going X IQ points above 130 will increase your probability of solving the item by the same amount that going X IQ points below 130 will decrease your probability of solving the item. For example, a person with an IQ of 120 has a 35% chance of solving this item, which means that a person with an IQ of 140 has a 65% chance of solving it.
- Although people above IQ 130 might miss this item and people below 130 might solve it, the only determinant of whether or not a person solves the item is the probability on the item characteristic curve corresponding to their IQ.
If I am told that a randomly selected person solved this item, what is my best estimate of their IQ?
130?
Wrong!
If you said that, you committed the base-rate fallacy because you forgot that there are more people below 130 than above 130.
To calculate the answer, apply Bayes’ Theorem. Look that up if you do not know what it is (that is a good habit to learn; look something up yourself before asking someone else). In this problem, it will tell you that our general formula is to calculate A = B * C / D for IQ X, where
A = The probability that someone has an IQ of X (in this case, X = 130), given that they solved the item
B = The probability that someone will solve the item, given that their IQ is X
C = The proportion of people who have an IQ of X
D = The total proportion of people who solved the item
D is the sum of, for each IQ, the proportion of people who will solve that item at that IQ multiplied by the proportion of all people with that IQ. In other words, D is the sum of B * C calculated for every possible value of X. Technically this would be an integral, but we could treat it as a sum by doing the calculation for each IQ point, or each 5-point IQ range, or whatever division of the intelligence spectrum.
In a sentence, the formula A = B * C / D means that the probability that someone who solves the item has an IQ of X is equal to the proportion of people with an IQ of X who solved the item divided by the total proportion of people who solved the item. If that does not make sense, please contemplate it until it does. Venn diagrams might help.
Once you have calculated B * C / D, find the maximum value of A. That is your best guess of the person’s IQ.
Why is this important? Because if you have an item for which the break-even point is far from the average and for which the item characteristic curve is (informally speaking) not close to flat around the break-even point, then the maximum value of A will be closer to the center of the IQ distribution than the break-even point is. If that sentence was a bit much to digest, someone who scores really high on a test, or solves a really hard item, probably has a lower IQ than almost everyone would think!
Allow me to demonstrate on our example item, with the help of <a href=”https://www.iqcomparisonsite.com/IQtable.aspx“>this chart</a>. A very, very rough estimate of D is the sum of the following:
- Proportion of people with an IQ of 120 * Proportion of people with IQ 120 who solve the item
- Proportion of people with an IQ of 130 * Proportion of people with IQ 130 who solve the item
- Proportion of people with an IQ of 140 * Proportion of people with IQ 140 who solve the item
I calculated the proportion of people at each IQ level by, with numbers from the table linked above, subtracting the proportion of people at IQ X from the proportion at IQ X+1. Now we plug in:
- 0.0105 * 0.35 = 0.003675
- 0.0034 * 0.50 = 0.0017
- 0.0008 * 0.65 = 0.00052
(Please do not bitch to me about significant figures. There is no need to bother with them here, and to how many decimal points I calculated the proportion of people at each IQ is arbitrary and irrelevant.)
What do we learn from this? If everybody with an IQ of 120, 130, or 140 attempted this item, and one of them were randomly selected, the probability that they have an IQ of 120 is 0.003675/(0.003675+0.0017+0.00052), which is about 62%. Even though the item “nominally” discriminates at 130, the majority of people who pass it have an IQ of 120!
This is a contrived example calculated with very generous assumptions, but my point, which stands even in the real world of non-spherical cows, is that a person who does one thing that seems to indicate exceptional smartness is probably not so exceptionally smart. The “Ganzir Effect” applies to reality as well as intelligence tests, which should be understood in the context that an intelligence test is only worthwhile insofar as it predicts real-life performance.
A concrete example of the Ganzir effect
I can give you a concrete example of this effect from the Mega Test norms:
The fourth column gives the percentage of testees in each six-point range who solved problem 36 (three interpenetrating cubes), the hardest problem on the Mega Test. Only the range 43-48, where 8 out of 13 candidates solved this item, exceeds its break-even point. However, from the third column, we find that 87 people solved it. Even though candidates in the ranges 37-42 and 31-36 were much less likely to solve the problem, 25 people in 37-42 did and 23 people in 31-36 did. If all I know is that someone solved the three cubes problem, it is almost three times as likely that they scored in the 31-36 range, i.e., high Triple Nine to low Prometheus, than in the 43-48 range.

i assume a jew given his name.
obviously musk’s edu and sat say he’s a lot over 110.
but the facts this guy adduces are interesting if true.
BUT! to be FAIR!
most high IQ pipo have nothing to show for it except their score.
they don’t have patents. or prizes. or papers.
obviously musk’s edu and sat say he’s a lot over 110.
Assuming he didn’t lie about them like he did his video game scores
Elon Musk bet Sam Harris a million dollars that the U.S. would not see 35,000 cases (not deaths) but cases of COVID. When the figure hit 35,000 DEATHS and 600,000 cases, Musk went ballistic:
Yeah, I read that too. Critical Thinking is a skill that Elon Doesn’t have. In fact, most people don’t have it. Including this blog.
RR has the best critical thinking skills as evidence by his complete 180 when he objectively looked at the data.
obfuscation of laungauge in robot logic to disprove intelligence is measurable.
sure melo
you can believe that’s critical thinking if you want to
(melo the troll lapdog of rr)
PEEPEE: WHO’S MAX WEBER N SHIT? I JUST GOT OFF THE BOAT AND THEY BRAINWASHED ME N SHIT.
mugabe will object
–
my aunt did not want to save money
she wanted a cheeseburger so got a title loan on her car for 100 dollars at 20% interest a month and used her social security to pay it.
I told her she would have more money if she paid the loan fully but she said no it’s my money
This is why social security had to be done against the will of the corporations by FDR because he had the power and the people would vote against anyone taking it away.
but the people are stupid so inflation took their money away anyway and they don’t save money.
10% of people are on welfare but 5% cannot do the paperwork to get welfare because IQ 75 (paper work IQ) thus homeless or family supported.
people don’t believe me when I say these people can’t get help because derp derp “anyone can do paperwork” derp derp.
no, these people get taken advantage of with identity theft
everyone who qualifies for welfare should get it but gvt requires you to be mentally capable of getting it
and I tell people, this baby boomer and they say no it’s MY money because IQ 99 level shit
Those people who pay ten million a year to live in Manhattan are not going to do poor peoples paperwork for them, they need their money to live in expensive places that cost a lot because supply and demand rental agreements.
and why you think only few people go to Yale and Harvard and not all college students? It cost money to pay teachers. So those teachers only want best students with high scores on tests. Supply and demand.
I am called a schizo conspiracy theorist be cause I said I need food to eat or I cannot be mentally healthy.
why?
because people are stupid
99 IQ is stupid
they are taken advantage of most of all because they follow stupid school shit that tells them to follow authority.
so I said you need vitamins and minerals and they don’t believe me
no one believes Mugabe and no one will do what he says for the same reasons.
ONE YUGE DEAL WITH AI IS…
IT CAN ONLY DO WHAT IT DOES WITH A SHIT TON OF INFO.
HUMANS LEARN A SHIT TON WITH HARDLY ANY INFO IN COMPARISON.
pipo don’t understand how human brain intelligence works so then people come out with fake a.i. that doesn’t work and then pipo say oh no, we need yuge a.i. factories to make it work.
Being taken advantage of 99 level IQ shit
don’t forget to drink your ovaltein
That’s because humans are VASTLY more intelligent than AI.
Anyways if you look at the current US political trajectory, its only been 1 generation since they brought back the economic policies of the 1800s that living standards have declined drastically. Hahaha. Poor americans.
correct!
imagine what americastan’s propgandists would say if real median wages hadn’t increased for 50 years in the soviet union?
as evil lincoln said: you can’t fool all the people all the time. trump is kerensky. apres trump le deluge.
Puppy is opposed to wealth taxes guys./ So hes like Macron but dumber because macron opposed them because they hurt his bosses. PPuppy opposes it because he thinks its ‘inefficient’?
Inefficient for who? What?
The best way to tax the rich is corporate taxation or property taxes. The IDEAL way is a wealth tax. It actually wouldn’t cost much money to hire 1 auditor to spend a year auditing a trust fund kid each and it would be revenue positive. The auditor would pay for himself and the entire IRS 100 times over on just a few wealth audits.
I would support a wealth INCREASE tax, not a wealth tax per se
^^ Low IQ
i am opposed to pipo being forced to sell their homes because they can’t afford the property taxes.
this is called “gentrification” in the US.
given that most of the wealth of the middle class is in its house it’s OBSCENE that bill gates only has to pay property taxes on his mansion.
this is another case of consumption tax being REGRESSIVE. because property taxes are in general FLAT.
One of the main arguments of neoliberals is that its impossible to tax the rich because it takes too much work….
Only people with….certain neurological conditions….actually believe that. Im not going to name them. We all know who they are here.
Do you support taxing rich countries to help Africa? I didn’t think so. You’re just a libertarian because you have certain neurological conditions and the racist kind too.
Are you so autistic you dont understand the concept of being more loyal to your own country than other countries?
Are you so dumb that you can’t think beyond crude identity politics? You’re a poor man in a rich country so of course you support rich countries giving money to their poorest citizens, because that’s the policy that most benefits you and yours. You are completely incapable of defending your pseudo-leftism on moral or philosophical grounds because if you could, you’d explain why wealth transfer is good when it happens nationally but bad when it happens globally. And no you don’t have to remind us that you’re a racist; we know.
I told my friend the reason poor countries are poor when they have huge resources is because their government is corrupt to not care about its people.
so maybe instead of giving aid relief we should change the government there to benefit the people with their own natural resources.
But that ain’t going to happen because we would need to invade them or something. And invasion to do so never has work with nation building.
so then what does happen is that those people never get what they need from the rich dictator and we pay for everything as to their health system.
All government is stupidity
because it has people in charge who come from the geographic population with the average personality deciding what to do.
leadership = government from the people where it exists
you cannot expect good gvt when the people are fighting each other for resources zero sum
corruption is the problem
solve that first
(bureaucracy don’t do it)
(is why gvt is being restructured at the moment since 2008)
Does anyone else read animes comments and think he might be trolling? Like hes pretending to be a hardcore libertarian idiot to expose how ridiculous it is?
Does anyone else read animes comments and think he might be trolling?
Only socially retarded people like you think he’s trolling. I’m a brilliant judge of character & I say he’s sincere.
You study econ
you have an unfair advantage calling everyone who doesn’t autistic.
whose job is it to enforce wealth taxes and why are they not doing their damn job
wealthy people have self interest to stop wealth taxes stupid pill
and the public is dumb
that is why it doesn’t happen
don’t blame me for your incompetence to get things done pill
The other main neoliberal argument is that if you tax Master he will run away to another country.
So thats why we need to end open borders. Right? Right?
blame yourself pill
it is your fault wealthy people don’t get taxed
only a need to end open borders for CAPITAL.
if master can’t take his fortune with him then he’s much less likely to leave.
capital controls have a long history. they are the flip side of the coin to trade restrictions.
in general one can be pro-closed borders or pro-open borders for EVEYTHING on NOTHING. otherwise he’s contradicting himself. which almost everyone does.
immigration restrictions + trade restrictions + capital controls OR
open borders, free trade,
emigration restrictions are something the ussr had and cuba has. emigration is bad for a country when it is a brain drain. how much richer would india be if it could keep all its smartest people?
Anyone ever wonder what puppy is doing in the liberal party? His views on econ and politics are more aligned with the neoliberals. What the hell is he doing in the same party as Chyristia and Trudeau?
I bet puppy also opposes the carbon tax because its ‘inefficient’ (for who? What?)
You’re just jealous because I’m accepted by all the cool Marxists that you and Mug of Pee so desperately want acceptance from.
Do you oppose the carbon tax?
lol
trump disposed of the carbon tax for the oil companies
so the USA can be oil independent?
and make profits!
pill is pills worst enemy
despite canada being woke-tard central its economy is very extraction heavy. so a carbon tax is suicide for canada.
canada is a mining, “forestry”, ag country basically. just like australia and south africa.
If you wanted to make the USA a safer and richer place literally overnight. Deport all the blacks back to africa and median wealth per person goes up 2 or 3 times.
I’m sure it would help Ireland if welfare cases like you left. So when are you leaving?
pill wants redistribution of wealth
but not to poor people?
Why does pill think the gvt is competent enough to do so?
The gvt is made of the people pill says are the problem!
stupid 🙄
you need to change the gvt to make it do different things
but pill doesn’t realize
different people have different incentives as to those changes
(bevis and butt head cornholio video)
Baverstock’s (2024) response to commentaries further shows how we should look at genes/DNA sequences—as passive, not active causes, the active cause is the phenotype and, consequently, genetic variance isn’t the driver of evolution. The logical consequence for hereditarianism should, therefore, be clear—hereditarianism fails on conceptual grounds since it assumes that genes are active causes of the phenotype and evolution.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S007961072400018X
One’s parents phenotypes is the main active cause of one’s phenotype, therefore hereditarianism is true.
What’s the argument against this?
Seems like you’re missing a second premise.
rr says: phenotype and genotype have no correspondence.
OMG.
P2: Hereditarianism means one’s phenotype is mostly similar or derived from one’s ancestors phenotypes.
“rr says: phenotype and genotype have no correspondence.”
That’s true though.
Lurker, I’ve stated the entailments of hereditarianism and then showed how they failed based on what we know about genes now. MAYBE 100 years ago it could have held weight, not today, though.
So what’s the entailment of the argument? Because that’s true on a DST view, too. The fact of the matter is, Baverstock’s argument—which is an outstanding synthesis of the knowledge we’ve gained in the last 40 years on the developmental system—outright refutes hereditarianism due to the entailments I’ve discussed.
If that is true under DST it is no refutation of hereditarianism. All you are claiming is genes are not the active cause of developmental differences or development. So what? Also, there is really no such thing as “active cause” in physics except whatever makes one thing into another (the laws of physics). That is what is meant by the whole system causing development, ultimately. But apparently, ancestral phenotype takes some sort of primacy in this development… which is why hereditarians existed before anyone knew what a cell or DNA strand was.
Well yea, behavioral geneticists claim that one main finding of their field is that of correlations between family members, but that’s also expected on DST as well. So how do we adjudicate between H and DST? Obviously, by looking at the current wealth of knowledge on the gene and what it does in context.
Even though you deny IQ is genetic, do agree with Jensen and Lynn that it’s probably still biological or do you see it as cultural?
DST would not predict MZ twins would correlate more than DZ twins
One more thing is which theory makes successful novel predictions—and DST is used in the extended evolutionary synthesis which DOES make successful novel predictions, which hereditarianism DOES NOT (contra Urbach’s protestations https://notpoliticallycorrect.me/2024/02/21/hbd-and-the-lack-of-novel-predictions/).
https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspzb.2015.1019
(Also note that H assumes the MS is true.)
I think biology is obviously necessary but I don’t think it’s sufficient. What I do think is sufficient is being engrossed in the main culture of the test. Yes, I think that IQ is cultural—there’s no other thing for it to be, in my view.
well the fact that you emphasize developmental resources makes it seem like you have a more biological conception of environment than most HBD deniers.
We know why MZ twins correlate more on T than DZ twins, as Joseph and Richardson have exhaustively shown.
what’s T?
Any trait that shows MZ > DZ correlation.
So Joseph and Richardson exhaustively showed that MZ twins correlate more than DZ twins on traits where MZ twins correlate more than DZ twins. That’s a tautology.
“well the fact that you emphasize developmental resources makes it seem like you have a more biological conception of environment than most HBD deniers.”
True. I’d like to think that my position holds a bit more weight than typical HBD deniers. I think it’s a truism that without organisms there are no ecologies (but there are environments), due to the interconnectedness of the organism and ecologies.
Are your views falsifiable?
What? They exhaustively showed WHY MZ > DZ in trait correlations, and it’s not due to biology like hereditarians like to claim.
i’ll have to look up their argument
They’re logically falsifiable.
but not empirically?
Well I’m currently formulating an a priori argument against g. Before hereditarians get to the empirics, they must have their concepts and definitions in line.
RR’s views about IQ (it being non-existent, intelligence being immeasurable ,and more immersion into X content being equal to a higher test result for any phenotype amongst humanity) have already been logically falsified by me and probably others.
if no correspondence exists
why do cats not give birth to dogs
a dog genome is not a cat genome?
Because anime(cat) says dogs are not cats rr calls him a hereditarian.
The rr personality is so dishonest.
“Because anime(cat) says dogs are not cats rr calls him a hereditarian.”
So stupid.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Try reading the paper first, champ. Then we can discuss the implications of Baverstock’s argument. Don’t be another AK and dodge reading it for the next year and a half.
I will read it, or at least skim it, but when it confirms my suspicions that it is arguing that two plus two makes five, you owe me for the time I wasted.
Knowing as I do that there is only one group of people who mention the second law of thermodynamics in the context of evolution, I got suspicious when, after the abstract, I saw “2nd law of thermodynamics” in the search terms. I then Ctrl+F’d “thermo” and, after hitting Enter a few times, found this:
Strip away the big words and you have the classic creationist gem that evolution violates the second law of thermodynamics because it requires that a closed system become more orderly. News flashes: (1) the second law is statistical, not physical; (2) much more importantly, the Earth is not a closed system because it receives energy from the Sun. Baverstock (2024) said there is no empirical evidence for the Sun. Maybe he went blind from looking at it for too long. I knocked over a Jenga tower and then rebuilt it. Jesus H Christ, I just violated the creationist second law of thermodynamics!
I am not saying that refutes, or even weakens, whatever point you were citing the paper in support of, just that I am not going to waste any more time reading this dumpster fire without a specific and very good reason to do so.
rr doesn’t believe in self regulation in cell biology.
genes to him cannot have anything to do with the process of embryogenesis.
fuck him if he says active or passive causes whatever bull shit.
look up the hox gene
further
look up how genes allow self regulation as part of the cells homeostasis signaling network.
The good reason to read it is that it’s a great synthesis of the last 40 years of what we know about the gene concept.
“rr doesn’t believe in self regulation in cell biology.”
Haha what? Can you explain how that’s an entailment of my views and how that follows from the views I hold?
“genes to him cannot have anything to do with the process of embryogenesis.
fuck him if he says active or passive causes whatever bull shit.”
Can you explain that distinction to me?
Again puppy doesnt literally understand what nationalism is and the concept of being loyal to a country lol. Autism.,
I understand but it shows how politically and philosophically vapid you are. You have the politics of a caveman.
“Me vote John because me loyal to tribe”
So you dont believe that 99% of people are loyal to a particular country rather than Mother Africa?
more social retardation. People are loyal to their race/ethnicity, not their country.
<b>[redacted by pp, Feb 27, 2025]</b>
State your stance on the carbon tax now
I support it because i’m not a libertarian like you
….Right…..
You only stopped being a libertarian because I castigated it so much over the years and said it was a sign of autism
lol! I have never ever EVER been a libertarian. You just have really bad Theory of Mind so walk around with all these false beliefs about people which prevent you from functioning in society.
Anime= Libertarian satire bot
What do you think of peter thiel?
I wonder.
What does pill think of Elon now.
elon is more libertarian than anime
but pill said he wasn’t autistic.
?
anyone who is not IQ 140 like pill
is autistic to pill
–
(by all accounts Elon is 150)
M&M was actually tested at 140
pill has some kind of sense for this personality type (proto ubermen)
There’s no way Elon is 150. Listen to him talk about any complex subject. That’s only 20 points below Bill Gates. Even 140 might be an overestimate since he didn’t self-report his original SAT score.
anyone who is not IQ 140 like pill
There’s no evidence pill has a one a 200 level mind like Musk. In all the years he’s been here I’ve never seen him say anything truly brilliant. Possibly one in 50 level (IQ 130)
Just for context puppy thinks Oprah is 140. So his judgement is kind of like a random number generator
My judgement is impeccable. I correctly predicted Elon’s IQ would equate to 140 before he disclosed his SAT score.
And you b elieved his self reporting. Incredible.
It’s believable that the richest man of all time, and who made his money in high tech, has a 140 IQ. Do you have a better guess?
Puppy wont let me make political predictions because it would be embarrassing to be always right
no dumbass it’s because your predictions are completely inappropriate. You don’t understand social norms. Why can’t you predict something normal like the price of gas in 6 months or who will win the midterm elections?
I sure hope Elon never gets into a political scandal. Elongate would take a while
“Look. Business owners should be allowed to not serve gays and blacks. Thats the free market.”
Philosopher: What if they want to stop serving autisitic people?
“Well then that should be banned and they will lose investments and opportunities to be tech billionaires”
you’re mocking an inconsistent person not a libertarian.
?? Whats the difference? Explain
it means pill
you don’t know what you’re talking about
If business owners cannot ban people from their establishments on the basis of race or sexual orientation, then why can PP redact comments he does not like?
One of Trump’s ideas I thought might actually be good was to do away with a federal income tax in favor of a national sales tax or consumption tax.
Although, it would have to be progressive as they are naturally regressive. It’s much more difficult to evade.
On top of that you should Implement a steep tax on luxury goods. Maybe even an enormous wealth tax if your net worth is above, say, $5 million. Rich people may be able to circumvent this, though. Not sure how.
“One of Trump’s ideas I thought might actually be good was to do away with a federal income tax in favor of a national sales tax or consumption tax.”
Can you ban this person? I think his IQ is way too low to contribute to this blog comment section.
what’s wrong with a very progressive consumption tax?
if a rich person lives like a middle class person then the middle class have nothing to envy except the rich person’s economic power. and the rich person isn’t wasting his money. he’s investing it not spending it. this is straight out of weber’s book.
for example: super yachts are taxed at 100+% of their cost. political donations are taxed at 1,000+%. etc…
obviously flat sales taxes are REGRESSIVE. and even a very PROGRESSIVE sales tax can’t be used to replace an income tax otherwise it would be 18th c france in a few generations.
but it can be a supplement.
i want oprah to pay a tax for all her trees.
Unmod all my free market/pro Macron comments. Those are my real opinions.
I think I need to take a break from politics and the drama and lock in. One of my coworkers just got a job making 200k a year and I KNOW that he’s not smarter than me. He definitely has better executive function, though; I’m a procrastinator.
Regardless, I’m competitive and seeing that guy nearly triple his salary in a year has me feeling stagnant. My bitch wants FIVE kids, so I got to get serious. I might still attend protests because it’s really uplifting, but I can’t keep doom scrolling it’s taking a toll on my mental health
LOL.
Did you guys see Macron completely emasculate Trump on camera?
I told you he was a chad. Trump tried straight up lying about shit and got corrected. That needs to keep happening.
Stop letting him pretend to be a badass. Grow some fucking balls.
Guys I want you all to note I made a prediction that ‘Melo’ is a neoliberal. I said it from day 1 that the guy wouldn’t even know the first thing about marx and lo, hes been promoting Macron incesstanly. Hahaha. Adorabale.
Who cares? Being badass is for children, and not even them.
That’s the point. Trump Supporters are mental children.
It should be illegal to date them tbh.
But unfortunately, Harris/neolibs are even more childish, because they have no replacement for old school machismo and are obsessed with girldicks, bad videogames, drugs, therapy, Netflix, failed political systems and scientific theories, racial justice, sexism, gambling stocks and crypto, or other get-rich-quick schemes, etc.
That’s why Trump was able to easily win over a lot of religious people, despite not being kumbayah-everyone-hold-hands type of politician.
“old school machismo and are obsessed with girldicks, bad videogames, drugs, therapy, Netflix, failed political systems and scientific theories, racial justice, sexism, gambling stocks and crypto, or other get-rich-quick schemes, etc.”
What the hell are you talking about?
Trump won because most people are morons that have no media literacy or ability to think critically.
What the hell are you talking about? Biden’s presidency literally only exacerbated the problems America was facing like inflation and lack of a future. Nothing got “better” except the gay things I mentioned.
Name some of the problems and policies that exacerbated them
Aid to foreign countries with no benefit to the US (or those foreign countries in the long run). Money spent frivolously on useless programs.
Reliance on imports. Low wages and lack of jobs and innovation because of reliance on slave labor. Illegal and legal immigration taxing our social safety net tax dollars. Increasing population driving housing costs up. Nothing done to combat inflation or the thinning of the middle class. Etc.
“Aid to foreign countries with no benefit to the US”
But there is a benefit to us and them. Why do you think there isn’t?
“Money spent frivolously on useless programs.”
Like what?
“Reliance on imports”
What’s bad about that?
“Low wages and lack of jobs and innovation because of reliance on slave labor.”
So you’d be okay with raising the minimum wage to 20/hour?
What evidence is there to suggest that innovation is lower due to “slave labor”?
“Illegal and legal immigration taxing our social safety net tax dollars.”
Did you not know that most people are a net negative on the system? Did you know the only exception are first-generation immigrants who put in more than they receive?
“Increasing population driving housing costs up.”
Lol, that’s not what’s causing the housing crisis. We’re not importing enough people for that to be a major driver of housing inflation.
“Nothing done to combat inflation or the thinning of the middle class”
LOL. Biden was the most pro-labor president in the last 2 decades and was fixing inflation too.
He wasn’t “fixing” inflation by supporting the Ukraine war. Also, Biden wasn’t anything, he is half-alive.
None of the rest of what you said has any relevance to anything because it is all conditional on other policies.
It’s a general problem Biden and the liberal/neolib world order has, and it’s that they don’t recognize that human societies have different trajectories and that trying to maximize profits while also performatively enacting equality does not work (and while they do that, the real parasites who pretend to care about social causes just use the aid for equality and the environment to gain more wealth).
“What evidence is there to suggest that innovation is lower due to “slave labor”?”
Because human beings don’t innovate in the direction of humanity when they have no reason to live. Lol. The only innovation they make is greater fueling of the consumer system and fighting parasitic taxation and inflation to escape the system. (They also don’t innovate when they have absolutely no connection to humanity like most liberals do… it’s that heat-map study.)
“He wasn’t “fixing” inflation by supporting the Ukraine war.”
lol, oh yea? How so?
“None of the rest of what you said has any relevance”
Yes it does. I’m waiting.
“Because human beings don’t innovate in the direction of humanity when they have no reason to live.”
Lol, what? It sounds like you just don’t like capitalism. I’m not sure if you even understand your own views. It’s kind of sad, really.
I never said I was a “capitalist” in Turning Point or cuckservative terms.
Imports and most people being a “net negative” is all contextual. I don’t care about GDP except as a temporary necessary evil. Did you think otherwise? Maybe go and argue with a random old White Trump supporter you can intimidate.
Just wanted to give a few examples of puppys psychometrics abilities honed over 20 years:
Why does Puppy make these statements when he knows about HBD and statistics….
Hmm….
Can’t figure it out.
Is it because they is black? (Puppy props up Dr Phil to demonstrate becoming famous on daytime tv shows genius to boost Oprah)
Religion.
If you can’t confront your mental programming that you had since a child eventually you will always be a child.
Said Oprah winfrey is ‘at least’ 140 IQ or the same as Elon musk…
correct.
Said Kamala Harris is also a 130 IQ individual….
No I said Harris is 115. And your God Scott Adams thinks Oprah is 20 or 30 IQ points higher than Harris so my numbers make sense. Adams also agrees with me that Trump is around 120.
Said RR is a 140 IQ and shows deep understanding of science…..
I said he scored around 140 on a general knowledge test but I also said he scored 108 on an official IQ test and the equivalent of IQ 65 on the SAT but 120s on Gestalt. Overall I’d say he’s smarter than the average university grad (IQ 110) but not as smart as Harris (IQ 115). He’s well-read in science despite his lack of formal education.
Said Dr Phil is also got the IQ to be a theoretical physicist….
He was extremely sharp 20 years ago but has not aged well cognitively
Said that if you sample 1000 people on their 3 most admired people then you would possibly get 3000 seperate answers….
Yes POSSIBLY, not probably or even plausibly
Deducted from a poll that when 20% of american men said they most admired Obama, that means Obama is ‘america’s most admired man’ and oprah is ‘most admired woman’.
If more people list Obama as their hero than list anyone else, then yes that makes him the most admired, regardless of whether it’s 20% or 2%.

Puppy will go to his grave believing Africa is going to come good any day now.
Like Bill Gates and those other morons.
We just have to sit here and wait till they die out and get replaced with people that haven’t watched Disney as a child.
After all, the jews almost killed christianiaty. So its possible, something will replace SOCIAL JUSTICE as a de facto religion.
Poor RR.
The people that suffer most from their religious beliefs…are the devout. Never the cleric. Never the object. Never the sin.
but you believe in social justice. You believe rich people should be taxed to help poor people. Poor Americans are just the Third World of the First World. Did you watch Disney as a kid?
You just never got it. Even from day 1. I support social justice. You support social injustice.
The other day puppy said most people would rationally put Africa above their own country’s interest if they were moral.
Again, i had to screenshot it because sometimes you can catch a religious person in the middle of a statement that they know is absurd as they say it. It makes them think momentarily ‘SUM TING WONG’, but after a second of hesitation, the alter ego has to ‘correct’ the ego and they go back to daily programming.
Expect to see more statements as this trump revolution continues.
Bit of inside baseball that will fall on deaf ears on the low IQ and autism people here.
But Norm Eisen has been invited onto 2 liberal blogs I follow – Michael Tomasky and Paul krugman.
Basically why are left wingers promoting neocons? I don’t want the neocons anywhere near left wingers thoughts. If you put a neocon in a room with someone is weak spiritually and intellectually…in about 10 minutes they eventually assume control of the persons mind.
We need to keep Satans spawn away from those of pure heart. Just ban neocons.
Lol, They just released the Epstein flight logs and Trump is on them
we’ve known that for years unless he’s on even more flight logs
Is it heavily redacted? Got a link?
No it’s basically all the shit we already knew.
It’d be hilarious if Oprah were on there to watch PP spin it and try to control the damage.
“She was using her freakishly large brain to pretend she was in on it to expose them, but then Epstein died.”
The trump zelensky press conference is the best thing ive ever seen.
Its even better than that time Trump went to the black journalist association and bashed them hahaha
Trump wouldn’t dare talk to Bibi like that. He’s a Zionist puppet just like you
^^ Puppet who said its moral to be Africa First
Having morals makes me a puppet? lol. What a sociopath.
Yes youre a puppet. Africa first lol
you’re the puppet. Israel first lol
I’ve never seen a world leader treated with such disrespect. It bordered on heightism. Trump and Vance reminded me of 2 racist white cops in the south interrogating a black teenager. People are disgusted:
What’s funny is that even conservatives are saying this is disgusting and makes Trump look weak.
You do sound kind of religious and infected by the real woke mind virus when your comparisons boil down to racist White people in the South like the kind you see Jewish-directed Hollywood movies. Like the horror movies you watch.
Zelenskyy’s little “tough guy” act is really hard to stomach knowing how little he really cares about his people, and I think to a professional media personality like Trump who knows the game of acting in front of the camera it rubbed him the wrong way. Lol!
Lol you can always tell when someone is ideologically captured when they stupid shit like this.
Damn Z looks so out of place there, both in looks (he’s leaning over and looks noticeably smaller than Trump and Vance, he’d look like a child if he sat all the way back on the chair), and Trump is just towering over him (pun intended) when Z is speaking. It’s not even the broken English, Trump just looks better and way more assertive there.
trump should have had his ss detail hold him down while he pissed on his face.
anyon whwo is disgusted by this is PURE EVIL just like zelensky.
sad!
Mugabe is talking a lot of sense lately.
Well for me I keep saying the best thing trump ever did was the ‘media and financial elites’ speech in 2016. That was the first time in my whole life a politician said something about certain powerful forces in international and historical affairs.
He didn’t say anything specific. He’s a puppet like like you.
Do you want me to quote it at length? Or is that offensive to you as well?
Damn, so that press conference just adds more evidence to the pile that Trump is a Russian asset.
Ok guys, another IQ test.
Why did Trump and Vance start attacking Zelensky today?
So Trump would have an excuse to throw Zelensky under the bus.
Bingo!
That’s why the first mineral deal was so unfair to Zelensky. It was basically a ‘fuck you’ to Ukraine.
Why do you ask IQ test questions when you dont know the answer?
IQ test question:
What is the IQ of a carpenter who flunked high school and never went to a good college and loves rap music and black culture?
The west supported Ukraine because if they won, or even if they lost, Ukraine would be indebted to the USA. This was Bidens and kamala’s plan as well not just Trump.
Anyone in any war is indebted to the country that supports it.
it’s took Britain decades to pay back the USA from WW2
You said RR, Oprah and Musk have a similar IQ. I want people to know that the person that runs this blog on IQ has the psychometric and psychological/social perceptiveness of a tree stump.
A fitness trainer, tv talkshow host and a guy that founded 3 Fortune 500 coporations in different industries.
Hmm which one is the odd one out? LOL
Thats what you yourself said. Marsha said she believes RR’s true IQ is sub 80. I put his IQ at about 70.
You said hes up there with Musk and most STEM academics. So basically our side is horribly wrong or you have some sort of supernatural ability to see intelligence in a guy who rejects a basic science textbook because it doesnt support his religion (that you, yourself also believe in btw).
You said RR, Oprah and Musk have a similar IQ.
LIE!
I want people to know that the person that runs this blog on IQ has the psychometric and psychological/social perceptiveness of a tree stump.
You run this blog?
A fitness trainer, tv talkshow host and a guy that founded 3 Fortune 500 coporations in different industries.
Hmm which one is the odd one out?
Musk. Unlike Oprah & RR, he’s never actually created a business. He just buys businesses that other people created and then pretends to understand the technology while the REAL engineers do the actual work and hope the socially retarded man-child doesn’t break anything.
You said hes up there with Musk and most STEM academics.
LIE!
^^^ what a know-nothing. PP is right about clown Elon Musk.
And its the same thing with blacks in general. Most blacks have IQs in the 60s or below as Chris Langan says.
You seem to think they are smart enough to be almost the same as middle easterners and most latin americans….
Again. One of us is completely and totally and horribly wrong about basic psychometrics.
You’re the only one dumb enough to think blacks (when raised in First World environments) have IQs in the 60s. The most extreme HBDers believed they have IQs of 80 (0% white admixture) to 95 (75% white admixture). Pure blacks average 80 and whites average 100. Middle Easterners & Latin Americans average around 90; in between blacks and whites in both IQ and skin color.
People who think blacks are 60IQ (or lower):
Yes in Africa they arguably score in the high 60s, but that’s extreme malnutrition which stunts people 1 SD below their genetic potential. Same reason West African men are only 5’7″ but black American men are 5’10”.
Why do you keep saying they have extreme malnutrituon? The population is at a 20% compound gorwth rate. Where is the nutrients coming from to do that? Bill gates?
And they have never actually fully tested africa. They have tested students in africa.
The vast majority of blacks find school too boring to even attend. They basically tested the elite 1%
You don’t need to be well nourished to grow your population, you just need enough nutrients to keep yourselves and your kids alive. Black Africa is about 100 years behind the West when it comes to nutrition. Just as white Americans today are taller and smarter than White Americans in WWI (the Flynn effect), unmixed black Americans are taller and smarter than both black African today and unmixed Black Americans in WWI.
The vast majority of blacks find school too boring to even attend.
LOL! Stop making stuff up.
Black culture – rap music, basically.
Blacks dont exist in visual arts, movie direction/scripting, theatre, animation. Zero in painting or sculpture.
They cant act. Every single black actor is basically being himself on a movie set.
Their comedy routines is basically always telling ‘jokes’ about being treated badly by whites. You can literally set a timer and within 5 minutes a joke will be about being treated badly by white people. Try it – Pryor, Noah, Chris Rock etc see if they can last 5 minutes.
They are completely non existent in literature or poetry or philosophy going back 3000 years and counting.
Frankly, the idea of a black person doing philosophy is almost as comical as the idea of an autistic person doing philosophy to me. Its like a dog playing poker or something.
And youre going to tell me their IQs are in the 80-90s?
A race with an average IQ below the 80s could not have contributed so much to American culture (rap, jazz, rock, sports, comedy) nor could they have defeated whites in the Haitian revolution:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haitian_Revolution
Sports isnt a cultural achievement dumbass. Unless you mean inventing a sport which africans cant do.
Music, yes. Accept it.
Comedy, no. Blacks cant do comedy.
Blacks like Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan were HUGE cultural icons. Yes I realize sports is more a physical than mental achievement, but still requires some basic cognitive skills above what you would find so frequently if they had a genetic IQ in the 60s. You may not appreciate black comics but a lot of people do; hence the success of Richard Prior, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle. Comedy is very g loaded (look at all the Jewish comics) and a race with a genetic IQ in the 60s would never produce so many competitive comics.
Have you ever entertained the notion the reason there are only jewish and black comics is because the only jokes allowed are against gentiles?
LOL! Interesting theory but I can think of other possible reasons. Being r selected, what blacks lack in IQ they makeup for in charisma, extroversion, rhythm, and aggression which are all useful traits in comedy. Also, historically comedy was the one field where whites did not discriminate against blacks and Jews because they enjoyed laughing at them, so they gained an early foothold in that field.
Its not a theory its a fact
You do not need to look past this comment
it’s intersting…
the pill personality uses “religious” as a term of abuse. i would too for many people. but not for others. he should tell us what he means by “religious” if only by more examples.
because “aesthetics don’t lie” is a religious sentiment.
it’s not a sentiment of anal philosophy or natural science.
AND zelensky is a proof text!
his appearance to the eye and to the ear. his voice sounds EVIL.
why? why does he look and sound the way he does?
Want me to tall about black quantitative abilites. Ill give you a clue – blacks dont just ‘suck’ at math. The literally don’t even have the concept of math in Africa without colonialism. There was no such thing as numbers in africa before arabs and whites went there.
Yes Africans had very primitive math knowledge when they were first discovered, but the oldest known math was also found in Africa:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishango_bone
The main question in my mind after reading that Wikipedia article about the Ishango bone is, if it was a tally mark counter, what did Africans 26,000 years ago want to keep count of?
What a know-nothing.
I guess it’s all perspective because I just watched the interview again from an overhead perspective where the size difference isn’t as noticeable and Zelensky looks more powerful and annoyed with them.
I just wish people had the balls to call Trump a pussy to his face. It’s not like he’d do anything.
He’s genetically inferior.
I think the morally correct thing to do is enslave all white people, cull the men, and keep the women as sex slaves. Only allow them to reproduce men when we need more white females created.
We already know you want that, lol.
Wow.
Most people have the decency to keep the things they fantasize about when beating it to themselves (coincidentally, I had a music playlist going and the song that was playing when I read this was Beat It by Michael Jackson)
i agree melo is an ANTI-COMMUNIST who thinks he’s a communist…
because brainwashed and mentally retarded.
marx didn’t and could never have predicted pipo like melo.
replacing the income tax with a sales tax = REGRESSIVE TAX!
Most people who create new theories don’t really comprehend their ideas being commodified so that lower IQ but aspiring intellects like Melo or other internet communists can have something trendy to wave around. It’s like nerd culture that becomes mainstream.
Also isn’t Marx basically a materialist? If you’re a monotheist why would you be a Marxist?
Jesus dude if you’re going to criticize me at least learn to speak english.
I literally said we should replace it with a PROGRESSIVE sales tax. I even acknowledge that sales taxes are naturally regressive.
How you would make it progressive is up for debate. Maybe like a rebate at the end of the year and higher incomes get less back? Idk. There’s definitely ways to do it and it would simplify the tax code and encourage investing.
^^^TAGALOG != ENGLISH^^^
no matter how PROGRESSIVE, such a replacement is REGRESSIVE. but because mentally retarded you can’t unnuhstan why. sad.
YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PHILIPPINES IMMEDIATELY.
“One of Trump’s ideas I thought might actually be good was to do away with a federal income tax in favor of a national sales tax or consumption tax.”
^^^NO MENTION OF PROGRESSIVE^^^
“no matter how PROGRESSIVE, such a replacement is REGRESSIVE.”
Me when I don’t understand English. Even if the rich were only taxed 1% more on purchases than the poor it would still be progressive.
You can’t honestly believe that if we did something extremely progressive like taxing POS purchases 50% on anyone who’s net worth is over $5 million AND 5% for everyone else is worse for the working class than the stupid shit we do now?
“NO MENTION OF PROGRESSIVE”
Literally the next line:
“Although, it would have to be progressive as they are naturally regressive. It’s much more difficult to evade.”
LEARN TO FUCKING READ
MELO NEEDS TO INVEST IN A ONE WAY TICKET TO THE PHILIPPINES.
SAD!
Replacing a welath or income tax with a consumption tax is basically something puppy or anime would say. No marxist in the history of the world would even joke about doing that. How would that redistribute power and wealth to the majority if you only tax the 2 or 3% of income that the rich consumer, never mind their offshore trust fund?
Redistribution>tax policy
Then its only a technocratic exercise about ‘efficient’ ways to do it. But the main thing is redistribution. If you dont accept we need it, youre not a marxist. Youre like anime or puppy or macron or some other creature of the night.
Replacing a welath or income tax with a consumption tax is basically something puppy or anime would say.
No it’s not. If anything I’d do the opposite, and lower taxes on consumption because it’s good for the economy and because I don’t want the rich saving money that they pass on to their useless kids and I’m sure anime feels the same way. Mug of Pee worships trust fund babies because they’re not strivers and HATES HATES HATES self-made people because he’s a lazy piece of shit.
I believe that since the rich get richer more though capital gains than through salary, that above a net worth of $10 million, wealth increase should be taxed like high salary (37%). So if Elon Musk was worth $300 billion in 2024 and then $400 billion in 2025, that’s an increase of $100 billion and should be taxed like a yearly salary of $100 billion where you’d end up paying $37 billion for 2025
Ok youre idea isnt that bad. But I would go off the base, rather than the increase. Otherwise youre just taxing compounding rather than wealth.
Is it because pill is Irish that he has to think fighting is the only way not to be autistic?
Ireland is a small island so I guess only those people who bullied the most survived?
I mean that pill is older than me and higher IQ yet feels he needs to push others around with stupid words that don’t mean anything because autism is not being less intelligent or inferior to what he is / knows about stuff, it’s something else. So he’s just being mean.
I can understand things if I want to but because pill has to feel superior (hidden inferiority) he has to believe only he is the one who knows stuff and that makes him better than everyone else aka not autistic.
Superiority complex = not autism pill thinks of himself
The more I watch this interview the weaker Trump and Vance look.
Z: “You have nice ocean and don’t feel now but you will in the future”
Trump: “You don’t know that”
Z: “God Bless-“
Trump: “You don’t know that”
(Repeats a couple times)
Trump: “Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel”
Trump: “We’re trying to solve a problem. You’re not going to tell us what we’re going to feel. You’re in no position to dictate that”
Z: “I’m not trying to dictate anything”
(More incoherent rambling)
Z: “You’re going to feel influence”
Trump: “We’re going to feel very good and strong.”
Like it’s so obvious how out of place and forced Trump’s fake outrage is. It’s blatantly planned to make Z look bad.
Like this is almost as bad as that time Trump did that interview with the black journalist association. He looked so fucking dumb then and lost the black vote because of it. He looks even dumber now and everyone who isn’t deep state or a part of his cult is turning on the US.
This press conference and the black journlaist association interview would make me want to vote trump permenantly into power
https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5166003-tech-billionaire-elon-musk-government-jobs
and musk’s appearance again on rogan = musk will soon be demoted.
trump let him make a fool of himself.
DOGE will become what it should have been all along. it will make suggestions but it will have no power by itself.
No elon is actually a lot more powerful than I thought. I thought trump would sweet talk him into a useless committee and do a report after 5 years and nobody reads it.
Elon basically demanded refugee scheme for his brothers in south africa. Hes the one pushing the minerals deal in Ukraine. And the tariffs against china would be maybe triple than what they are now without his beloved factories being there.
That said Elon is basically universally hated by the left, right, neocons and even most neoliberals which his amusing.
Hello?
Yesterday JD Vance proved hes ready to be president of the United States and not a territory of Israel.
don’t hold your breath
I had to do a lot of digging and digging but I finally found something Norm Eisen wrote on Netanyau.
Curiously, he criticised netanyahu for trying to end the supreme court in Mother Israel. Interesting.
You not going to approve my other comment, Pumpkin?
huh? I thought i approved all your comments
never mind; found it and posted it
Thanks bruh
LMAO. Dude Kamala predicted all of this. She is such a good public speaker. 100% predicted he was going to just give Ukraine to his daddy Putin.
Imagine how immoral you have to be to watch that interview and come away with the conclusion that trump was in the right.
Obviously, people with low social IQs and brain washed minds will come away with the conclusion that Trump is standing up to the “international elite”, but real ones know what’s actually happening.
Zelenskyy and his creditors are literally letting Ukrainians die in a fake fight for freedom. The Russians will not stop without something like a virtual nuclear war, and Zelenskyy knows this, and still continues on this steady stream of death.
If you ever get to an argument with someone who is saying that Ukraine started the war by trying to join NATO, all you have to do is ask them why Ukraine was trying to join NATO.
Every cuckservative I’ve asked this has straight up avoided the question hahahaha. They’re like the people who say the American Civil War was over “states’ rights”
I can see the argument that the U.S. started the war by provoking Ukraine to join NATO, but I would never argue that Ukraine or Zelenski started the war. Imagine if Zelensky had spit in Trump’s face. Trump probably would have whipped it off with a napkin and then said “get this animal out of here”.
You remember what Putin said right after/before they invaded? They basically said that Ukraine shouldn’t even exist and that it belongs to Russia. Basically, the same shit China says about Taiwan.
Ukraine wants to join NATO because Russia is an imperialistic dictatorship. FULL STOP.
if melo doesn’t know
those people in Ukraine and Russia go back centuries
same with Taiwan and China
why you think people want to rule places where both people are next to each other, because they think of them as their people
melo needs to eat more jello
If you could actually comprehend why the Mexican and Ukrainian presidents are Jewish, and why our president has so many Jewish relatives, maybe you could come to a better conclusion about geopolitics.
Why would melo think Russia would want Ukraine to join NATO?
The civil war happened because the supreme court struck down the Missouri compromise.
I’m going to start a new religion based on Adonitology.
I’m so blessed to be with a PAWG. I’ma marry this bitch and give her 5 kids.
I bet that infuriates Lurker and Mugabe.
Not really, it’s a white pill that nonmasculine men with small penises can find women who are attracted to them just by following trends. It makes me look better in comparison.
It’s just sad that you don’t realize you’re basically a tool for propaganda. That does not give me faith in humanity. Also, the way you talk about her makes it clear you don’t really love her and vice versa.
And because of that, your kids will never love you (unless they’re deluded, which is really love but more like an animal’s loyalty).
Make sure to post all of my comments PP, you missed one.
maybe the DOGE strategy was to do what they knew would later be deemed illegal by SCOTUS just in order to get a ruling from SCOTUS. and perhaps a more favorable one than had they not gone crazy.
if the president were a CEO he could fire anyone. he could fire the whole government. but the founders obviously didn’t intend that. what would be the point of congress? congress can create and fund an independent agency and the president can simply refuse to hire anyone or spend any money? not original intent.
but the permanent bureaucracy is a problem whenever it doesn’t represent the people. but a permanent cure to this problem is not DOGE. because a permanent bureucracy is needed. it just needs to be representative of the people. and washington dc is very NOT representative. ideally there would be legislation assuring the bureaucracy’s politics was representative of the country as a whole.
ideally there would be legislation assuring the bureaucracy’s politics was representative of the country as a whole.
Then people would just lie about their politics to seem representative. So instead maybe affirmative action to make sure the bureaucracy resembled the people ethnically combined with low polygenic psychopathy scores and the banning of people with dual citizenship.
The USA is like Russia or Australia in size in that it is basically a continent government.
That is why it is federal state and local in structure.
Federal government runs the superstructure of the military and home defense. That means it has the greatest power to interface geopolitically with the international system.
In a corporation the limit of a hierarchy is one hundred thousand people before communication breakdown. Thus the federal agencies are subdivided of the government.
So the government has to organize between the agencies. And that is what D.O.G.E. is as a policy advisor.
People don’t realize how big, very hugely big the economy is when it comes to keeping it stable.
pill will say, all you need is a strong man to push everyone in line. But then the next election happens and people cannot afford the next economic cycle crash. His idea of the economy is Ireland where all you need is the entire population to agree and things get done. He cannot understand continental economic systems. No one can because of Dunbars number.
NASA has people working days and nights with quantum maths to keep problems from happening. The keep people, the astronauts from not dying. Yet they don’t operate with millions of people. Pills brain is to small to understand that the larger the system the more decentralized it needs to become. Those that design the agency must do so by such ways as to limit mistakes that are big and the only way to do so is by error correction at all levels. (Look up six sigma in manufacturing products)
coordination is what keeps the system stable and you do that by understanding the rules of what everyone agrees to do in order to know where things are and need to be. The electric grid keeps record’s. Amazon store keeps record’s. Everyone should and does. Walmart just in time system works that way. As a super organization the economy eliminate inefficientcies.
its not simple as oh just tax people differently, people need rules to follow that don’t tax the working memory so much they break down.
the rules create the emergent property of self organization
google became to large and became alphabet
that is you don’t build up the government until is don’t work
you create rules for inter agencies to follow, cutting waste and spending and for restructuring.
because ‘tarded melo personality’s idea of a rich person is a rap star. he makes millions and then goes bankrupt because he spends even more.
no. even with the most progressive sales tax the rich (non rappers) will pay a smaller percentage of their income than the poor.
= REGRESSIVE tax.
“he makes millions and then goes bankrupt because he spends even more.”
Rich people spend more money than poor people that’s just a fact. Obviously, they typically don’t spend more as a percentage of their total income of wealth.
It really just comes down to how much someone spends yearly. A frugal CEO who makes a million dollars a year but only spends 50K is probably going to pay less in taxes as a percentage then someone who only makes 20k a year and spends almost all of it even if the richer person is paying 50% vs 5% for the poorer one. And I’ve met plenty of rich people who are frugal, but there’s just as many who are NOT.
Either way I think you’re missing the forest for the trees.
(cause and effect)
if rich people have to spend more then they start spending less
if I were rich and I stopped spending on this or that product or service then I would need to save money to make sure I had returns on my retirement future.
that dives costs down on super rich but up on the upper middle class.
meaning I spent less as a middle class person and wages go down for everyone who works to make those products and services.
The USA then becomes Japan in 1998
zelensky looks and sounds demonic.
aesthetics don’t lie.
you’re so embarrassing.
Yeah he’s straight up fallen for Russian Propoganda.
I don’t mind that he hates Zelinksy, but calling people Satanic like some 7th century exorcist is just cringe. He’s so weird.
It is weird, but I also think hating Zelensky is weird. I’m not saying he’s perfect but he’s no Donald Trump.
This is where Social IQ comes into play because you have to be able to actually gauge who has good aesthetics and you can’t be gullible enough to allow outside influence to dictate how you judge aesthetics.
Trump is evil. You can see it in his eyes they’re beady and reptilian.
it isn’t binary
personality has many dimensions to it
when looking at people they have a history of being a certain way by how they are treated.
so not only is it there emotional expressions but over time you can see it in the body as well because of the activities they do.
i have not read the book yet but it is called; “The body keeps the score”.
i would assume that what you do in daily life results in the body having it ingrained in body tensions that can be detected in interactions with others.
and this both is about how they carry themselves with others and the environments they are in
It’s ironic how Mugabe will say that the cons of multiculturalism are exploited to topple democracies, and yet, when Russia does exactly this to the US, he just falls for it hook, line, and sinker.
Why don’t you go and sign up to fight in Ukraine?
Lol, why would I die for a country that isn’t mine?
What a stupid argument. Do you guys even think before you type this stupid shit?
