MrNemo posted:In a way Rorschach is an idea of some Captain America figure in a world where Hydra has won and we've got world peace and order. He can't even stop to weigh up the pros and cons, he can't really consider the costs because that starts to take away part of what makes him a hero. Captain America can't compromise, which in comics makes him an idolised figure but once you change the context makes him a bit of a psycho. Peace through genocide isn't peace in your Hydra example. Rorschach was right to try to expose Ozymandias. You can't kill your way towards Utopia. That's kind of what the HBD people miss,when they talk about the R/k selection strategies.

Abner Cadaver II posted:none of this helps me understand how people who worship Reason & Science are believing in Atavistic Negroids in the 21st century their prior beliefs (which conveniently enough they never bother to examine) lead to Bayesian (they don't actually know what this means, but they're cargo culting hard enough that nobody calls bullshit) certainty. they're ignorant louts who've learned to parrot technobabble. not even wrong, really. Edit: Not Even Wrong would be a good name for a LW parody.

I'm interested in what you guys are talking about, but it'd be more interesting in it's own thread.

It's partly because you can see all those contradictions and decide that the thing to do is fight them rather than embrace them. That's why the NRx hates SJWs so much. Nobody is worse than the person who sees the same problems you do and comes to the opposite conclusion about what to do about them.

Nick Land. As part of embracing the machine-god who lurks at the end of time.

Helsing posted:...People instinctively understand something that we're not supposed to acknowledge publicly, which is that being the object of charity and pity is contemptible and is essentially a way for our "benefactors" to lord it over us. nah, you're just broken.

Sure, but that dude is arguing that all charity comes from a place of contempt. It's very Randian. If you feel contempt when you give someone a couple bucks, that's an indictment of you personally, not all Humanity. ^^*edit* That there are a lot of broken people doesn't mean that it's not useful to point out that finding the needy contemptible isn't normal. Dollar tipper people are rightfully derided. Peztopiary fucked around with this message at 06:31 on May 5, 2016 |

It's not inherently demeaning, it isn't an unspoken societal rule (excuse me, instinctual (lol)) to pretend otherwise, and people who think it is are broken.
