Yeah. Its genetic flotsom who genuinely believe their numbers on a test white collar job and being good middle management field niggers makes them superior.

Yes, teaching kids to read early and having intellectual passions cultivated is essential to a successful person.

You are being facetious. Being able to afford food and Healthcare while not being grinded down by mindless toil is a privilege.

>>218938302

It's a documentary
>>
Leftists want a utopia that's enabled simply by the right institutions and programs, with no effort or accountability on the part of individuals. Bad things happen because of the System, never because of individual limitations or stupidity. Therefore the idea of proactively self-screening for undesirable traits and choosing how to breed based on that (i.e. eugenics) is anathema to the Leftist ideology.

Right Wingers fear a dystopia that's permitted by individual behavior unrestrained by their hierarchical notion of a proper society. Any misfortunate that befalls someone is a direct and exclusive result of their individual decisions, because their nebulous and infallible God or Nature is incapable of unfairness or randomness. But despite that infallibility, and their ideal conception of the hierarchical society as remote and hands off, the notion of interfering with the liberty of childrearing is distasteful. (For them...the lower castes can and should have limitations since the laws bind but do not protect plebs, while they protect and do not bind them).

Eugenics is a third position that rejects Leftish childish abdication of accountability & autonomy and doesn't hypocritically bow to vague Right Wing notions of Nature and hierarchy. On a family level, but serving the interests of the people as a whole, there should be eugenic measures to ensure the dignity and health of our offspring.

>>218938302
Yes. But its not a sign of superior breeding or genetics. Its a sign that the slave owners think you deserve a nicer house on the plantation.

Its luck and privilege. Not a genetically determined divine right.

I do find it interesting that normalfags and Reddit seem to meme this movie so much, but don't acknowledge or discuss the eugenic elements of it. Because I'm convinced that opposition to eugenics falls almost exclusively on midwits and, at the risk of being redundant, religious types.

Morons have the Dunning-Kruger effect going on and will assume they're smart, capable, and worthy enough to pass on their genes. Smart people realize that eugenics have been an unstated reality for thousands of years. The Greeks comment how silly it is to spend so much time and thought on the breeding of prize animals, but have no care for the breeding of man.
But the midwits immediately get triggered emotionally and evoke baseless Nazi culling imagery and are incapable of considering the ramifications of limitless breeding, to include the severely disabled.

Lol
Look where their superior breeding got them.

But its totally going to work this time. And genetic engineering will fix it too. Look. In your fantasy society you would have been aborted or sterilized. You and people who..."think" like you are clearly inferior.

Its been thousands and thousands of recorded history with people who think like you. Where are they?

Where are these superior well bred superhumans? Where is their society?

We are seeing infant deaths and still birth on a level we've never had now because of genetic modification of...a certain shot. You people are fucking insane.

Clean water and sanitation would instantly stop the majority of infant mortality rates in developing countries. The powers that be are also oligarchs that hoard wealth and allow the elite in the US exploit their populace as long as they get their cut.

I re-watched it recently. I know it was basically a goof but if they knew how correct they were with their premise they probably would have expanded the movie, I thought it was too short and I wanted more.

There are villages in Africa, the ones bill gates didnt visit, that have higher glhealthier birth rates then the first world right now.
Anon Im talking about the first world.

And yes I know. We all know. Even the very idea of eugenics snd population control are their insane cultist propoganda that some retards believe.

Using the marketing slogan "reddit spacing".
Dismisses what I have to say as disingenuous.

If you want me to engage, be honest. It's all anonymous anyway! Stop hiding behind irony and trolling and make yourself vulnerable with a real opinion and serious argument.
However, if you are claiming that was your real opinion and you believe that was a serious argument, then there's not much to say since you're clearly too flippant and/or stupid to take seriously.

Was this world run by AI?
>>
>>218938077
Yes but it's not really far fetched.
If the message of the movie was about Class consiocuous and Culture Values instead of just "Muh anti intellectualism".
The irony is while it did made fun of anti intellectualism It wasn't wrong about the values of intellectualism and high trust society disappearing and being replaced by third world culture values. pole draft.

Yes, and it should be. All Republicans and illiterate should die off.

I got warned for sarcastically implying there are only two options to choose (left right, red blue ect) and no others recently. It was in an SCP thread on /v/ of all things. I found that weird.

The snl sketch with justin Timberlake and her mocha face getting slapped around by a rose was hot.

Yes but thats a good thing

She did not. The worst part of the movie were the two main characters. Her because she just was not hot. Him because he's an annoying zero.

>>218941504
It must have been. This is our future when AI becomes self sustaining. It will keep the lights on and food delivered. People will become even more useless, lazy, and r selected.

Dunning-Kruger has to be the most disastrous concept ever to be put out into the world because it makes complete and absolute retards like yourself think you can base any kind of argument or conclusion around "dunning kruger effect".

For whatever reason, it somehow captures your imagination and makes you think that any diarrhea thought abortions you have are correct. Even the original authors behind the effect (Dunning and Kruger) have come out and insisted that people are using their theory wrongly to push forward views, and still fucking retards like you push it.

You're a fool. You don't know anything about biology or about anything else, you never will know anything, not in a meaningful way at least. Everything that you "contribute" is a toxic and harmful pile of shit. Go back to gooning and leave the adults talk.
>>
>>218948351
Donald trump and joe rogan are the perfect examples of it.
>>
>>218948351
We used to just call them idiots. But wearing a lab coat and slapping a funny name on something thats been apparent fir as long as we've had the written word somehow makes it more...smurt.

Lmaooooo....BIG MAD.
Luckily, I know you're just joshing and you're not actually seething. A real retard wouldn't have structured a post like you did, or fixated so much on the DK-effect.

>>218948351
Dunning-Kruger ass post. Just because an argument has faulty reasoning does not mean that it’s statements are intrinsically wrong.

>>218948351
You are a living example of it, right now.

I still don't know what palantir is and why the fuck people hate this guy named peter thiel

I still don't know how people can't Google things and why the fuck people hate being informed.

>>218940621
That’s because she’s not. She married well, though. Won’t have to work ever again basically.

>>218954017
>Thiel was a major supporter of Donald Trump in 2016 and has funded numerous hard-right, anti-abortion candidates (e.g., J.D. Vance, Blake Masters), making him a target for progressives
? Google says this. Why do chuds hate him
