Is it like Cards Against Humanity or something

leftism: Otherwise known as “progressivism” and even more inaccurately as “liberalism”, leftism is a term originating from the French Revolution of 1789, in reference to the political faction that opposed the French (so-called) king. However, the term is currently used in common discourse to describe those criminals who actively support (or at least tacitly condone) a host of OBJECTIVELY-WICKED ideologies and practices that contravene dharma, such as non-monarchical governances and corrupt economic systems (particularly socialism, communism, fascism, and liberal democracies), egalitarianism, feminism, perverse sexuality (especially homosexuality, bestiality, and transvestism), multiculturalism, and the illegitimate abortion of innocent, defenceless, unborn children. Cf. “dharma”. In the past decade or two (of this treatise being composed), the mass media, especially the motion picture industry and television production companies, has been aggressively promoting all the above CRIMINAL ideologies and practices, helping to expedite the destruction of human society. Recently, large corporations have jumped on the leftist bandwagon (so to speak), in order to profit. As explicated in Chapter 11 of this “A Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity”, the state of being of any particular human (or any other animal, for that matter) is due entirely to his or her genetic sequencing and his or her conditioning. Therefore, the explosion of the leftist/liberal mentality in recent decades, particularly in Western countries, has been caused by poor breeding strategies overtaking the more conservative tradition of mate-selection of previous centuries (and indeed, millennia). In other words, due to the fact that criminal behaviour (especially the deviant sexual acts mentioned above) has become increasingly more tolerated, condoned, and even GLORIFIED in most countries, there has been a proliferation of corrupt genetic codes within the wider human population. According to genealogists, for (almost) the entire history of humanity, most women have successfully reproduced, whilst a far far smaller percentage of males have bequeathed their genetic sequence to proceeding generations. Due to the gradual phasing-out of polygamous marriages in even the most conservative societies, as well as the eradication of poverty in most every country, more and more men (as well as women) have been producing offspring. Thus, the human genome has rapidly become adulterated by inferior genetic material (that is, DNA from truly pathetic, uxorious beta-males, bisexuals, and even homosexual couples who engage surrogate mothers or sperm donors in order to conceive children - something of a rare occurrence in previous centuries/millennia). Unsurprisingly, the majority of leftists find it difficult to accept the fact that their criminal mentality is largely inherited (and of course, they are unwilling to acknowledge the blatantly-obvious fact that their ideologies and practices are intrinsically sinful, wicked, evil and immoral in the first place). It seems the consensus amongst leftist “intellectuals” is that every human mental trait is due entirely to one’s environmental conditioning and social milieu, rather than as a consequence of BOTH one’s genetic sequence and one’s life-long conditioning - a fundamentally-flawed assertion that cannot be scientifically-supported. This term was very reluctantly used in the chapter on feminism. I say “reluctantly” because it is unlikely that the term will perdure for many decades longer. This is simple deductive logic, since, as clearly demonstrated in certain chapters in “F.I.S.H”, human civilization cannot survive with such leftist practices and ideologies in place. If you happen to be reading this Holy Scripture a century or more after its conception, you will probably be residing in a nation (as opposed to a country) ruled by a monarch, following the implosion of post-modern, decadent societies. So, either the term “leftism” will eventually become redundant and obsolete, or else, human civilization will devolve into a decadent, diseased state of existence similar to that of the prehistoric era, when the peoples of the world resided in caves or shacks, subsisting on whatever food can be sourced from the surrounding bushland. I trust that you who are reading these wise words will endeavour to influence your social circles to adhere to right-leaning ideologies and practices, such as (above all) monarchical governance, an entirely free-market economy, sexual purity, veganism, and all other virtuous principles. Fear not, for the truth will surely conquer (“satyam-eva jayate”, in Sanskrit)! Cf. “right-wing”. See “multiculturalism” and “socialism”. P.S. As a general rule, it seems (at least anecdotally) that the farther left-leaning is a person, the more physically (and of course, psychologically) UGLY is that person. Unfortunately, that does not seem to prevent leftists from propagating their mutant genes.

Mic drop!

My favorite thing is when Shapiro actually gives a source for what he's saying (which is pretty rare), and then after the fact you go and read the thing he cited, and it actually says the exact opposite of what he's arguing. But in the heat of a "debate", you can't do that and he knows it, so he gets away with it.

Is he though? Is he even good at that?

Yeah, he's like Mr. Satan from Dragon Ball Z, except he's not a hero.

I think we’re in Peterson territory here. Another good example familiar to UK viewers will be Jacob Rees Mogg. It is possible for someone’s education and ostensible articulateness to vastly exceed their understanding and intelligence. And the Shapiros, Petersons and Rees Moggs of this world spend a lot of their formative years being told they’re really smart. They believe their own hype, and that lends them ill-deserves confidence.

::narrows eyes:: I don't know. I think we're in brand new territory here where the subject is both full of malice AND full of stupidity. I used to think Ben was at least intelligent, if incorrect, but the more he runs his fast little mouth the more I'm starting to think he might not have much brains at all. Some of the shit he says is just so out there. Unless it's more the fact he dug so deep into all this that it's less embarrassing to keep going rather than admit he was wrong?

In this case I think it's pretty clearly malice. The stupidity is in the arrogance.

In the case of Peterson he had one point had the intelligence to become a doctor and Mogg despite being a loathsome hollow child of aristocracy is still cited to this day in law school in the UK when it comes to constitutional law. Shapiro was a child prodigy which is just another way of saying he never grew out of a age which he never was.

Yeah the alt-reich loves to always spout “facts don’t care about your feelings” but one thing you have to learn is that with them, every accusation is a confession. What they are really saying is, “My feelings don’t care about your facts!” They are never persuaded by facts because they were indoctrinated to resist facts in favor of biblical beliefs. You have to get them to trust facts again before you can steer them away their delusional indoctrination.

Ben’s feelings don’t care about facts.

Update?

It probably depends on the country , as the USA, for example, with the largest evangelical population in the world, is vastly more religious than say England. So here, much more atheists are ex-believers. At the same time personal pain is a entirely valid reason to question religious dogma and something way to many theists ignore again and again because theyre conned into believing " its all part of God's plan."

The worst part is the *implication* of that statement: that irrespective of your harmful experiences nobody is allowed to reconsider the existence of a loving benevolent omnipotent deity. If negative experiences aren't allowed to count against the existence of a deity supposedly defined as benevolent, omnipotent and omniscient, the implication is that this harm is somehow good for you. Ben Shapiro is indirectly advocating people ought to be masochists in order to retain their faith. This is why Christianity is frequently seen as a religion of suffering.

Religious interlocutors often start with belief in god as the default state. If we look at their arguments from that lens, where all atheists have reasoned their way out of the default position, it's easy to see why they misunderstand the atheist state of mind.

@@carlchristianlindalen9311 This is absolutely true. We should also not forget that many of these theists have never believed otherwise, at least insofar as they can remember. Most religious people grow up with it, having it spooned into them by their parents, and reinforced by their environment. They have no concept of what it means to think like an atheist, and their religion is so interwoven with their personality that changing it changes who they fundamentally are. This even holds true when their behaviour is not necessarily a reflection of their beliefs, they just never let go of the core concept. Like changes in personality, to them, becoming an atheist necessarily comes from outside factors that force someone to change. And that's how we end up with the "angry at God" line.

@@carlchristianlindalen9311 this is reflected in the historical use of the term atheist, once meaning "one who believes no gods exist". The more recent definition of "one who does not believe a god or gods exist" is one that has only *just* escaped the proposition that the existence of a god is assumed to be true unless proven otherwise.

A deep, loving, and personal one. One where the being will cast you into a lake of fire if you touch yourself because he just loves you too much to stop you.

@@JD-wu5pf lol tnx for the laugh

@@JD-wu5pf 😂 😂

@@JD-wu5pf why does "he" loves me ? Is he gay?🤣

It's interesting because for people who are into spirituality but not religion, God or The Source or whatever you wanna name it, is not apart from humans; we all are already God. And these people are always way more compassionate and understanding than traditional, religious people

I recommend Anders Puck Nielsen, Combat Veteran Reacts, The Russian Dude/The Canadian Dude, Speak The Truth, Perun, Operator Starsky.

Just because it's propaganda doesn't necessarily mean it's false information. Why don't you try debunking it on your own?

@@MrDoomedtofail Russian propaganda is overwhelmingly fake with respect to the other actors involved in the conflict.

@@warswordx4536 all war propaganda is overwhelmingly fake, it doesn't matter where it comes from. Please learn to think critically :)

@@MrDoomedtofail i do, that's why I know that russian propaganda is more fake that anyone else in the conflict. You should inform yourself a little bit more, rather than just assuming that everyone is lying and call it a day. Your position is as stupid as someone that blindly believes everything a side say 100%.
