Jonathan Haidt (@JonHaidt) is getting exactly what he wants. Kids banned from YouTube. Phones banned in schools. Private schools taxed into bankruptcy. The only information kids will get is state-funded, state-approved, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.

The West didn’t lose to decadence, but to Prussia: barracks are called schools, obedience is called progress, and government clerks are calling themselves civilization.

Never. Give. Up.

Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire. The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk's level of progress. We need more Elon Musks.

Is Building AGI Dangerous? In general, why should you be worried about something? It comes down to capability and morality. ~Conjecture Institute Fellow @dela3499 w/ Ambassador @ToKTeacher

"Wherever we look in Europe, there’s an overrepresentation of Muslim countries at the top of the crime lists. Controlling for age, sex, and income reduces this effect, but it remains strong. Immigrants in general commit much more crime than locals. Within immigrants, non-EU immigrants are much more crime prone. Within those, Muslim immigrants cause the most crime." Some shocking statistics: "Algerians in Germany are 26x more prone to crime than the average German. 13 other Muslim-majority nationalities are at least 5x more criminal than the average German. Only one non-Muslim majority meets that requirement (Georgia)." "Green (Muslim) is at the top of all the rankings, with special mention for the winner, Algeria, with the brutal record of one crime for every three Algerians every year. Algerians are ~1500x times more likely to be a pickpocket than Germans, to murder at 35x the rate of Germans, to commit 23x more crime overall, and are 8x more likely to commit sex crimes." "A few hundred Palestinians were accepted into Denmark in 1992 under a special law. Of them, about 64% had criminal records: 21% ended up in prison, and 43% got at least one large fine. About 59% were on welfare. Of their children, 34% have been convicted of a crime, 13% received a prison sentence." But why don't you write another screed about "islamophobia", progressives? Go ahead, give the far-right even more power. unchartedterritories.tomaspu…

In his final moments, Henry Nowak told police officers nine times “I can’t breathe” and four times that he had been stabbed. In response police officer dragged him across the gravel, handcuffed and read him his rights. It was the last thing Henry heard before he died.

I want the world to hear what we heard.

‘Bij een vrouw was een lading spijkers in haar onderlichaam geschoten; soldates waren gedood met pistoolschoten in hun vagina; van een door Hamasleden verkrachte vrouw werden de borsten afgesneden en naar medestrijders gegooid’

The Battle of Ideas and Error-Correction The society of the West is not the society that makes the right decisions all the time, it's the society that corrects errors. There is no limit to the size of error that we can make. The important thing is how good we are at correcting errors. Many non-Western societies don't try to correct errors, they want to entrench them. They don't recognize that there are going to errors in everything they do. That is their weakness. It is why we already have the tools to win the battle. We've got what it takes. ~Conjecture Institute Advisor @DavidDeutschOxf with Advisor @peterboghossian & @ReidN

Literally 0 shame.

From Module 4: Israel lacked oil, farmable land, and drinkable water, yet solved those disadvantages by innovating. In the battle of civilizations, “knowledge and wealth are the most potent weapons one may obtain.”

None So Blind as Those Who Refuse to See The Horrors of October 7th

When it comes to billionaires my take is the opposite of Leftists: Billionaires SHOULD consume all their wealth: megayachts, English castles, mountains of cocaine, own a dozen homes and 30 cars - do it! Spend it all! The worst thing that can happen is for a billionaire to try to ‘do good in the world’ and shovel money to NGOs for some cause they get excited about. That’s the worst thing that can happen. Charitable donations should be taxed at 500%. A billionaire’s lavish lifestyle poses no threat to me but their misguided ‘good intent’ is absolutely cancerous and potentially civilization ending.

Please share! Remember! The Islamic regime stopped executions in the past after being exposed! Sharing this can save her life!!!!!!!
