cadeveo said...: I do't know... a dude going on for ten minutes on how the European Jews are imposters and the true Jews are Black because...Hitler said so, isn't gonna win too many to his theory. That's not the appeal to authority/expertise you wanna make and be taking seriously.

"Hey, everybody! Jesus was a blue-eyed, blonde-haired Nordic...cuz HITLER SAID SO!"...No, still sounds bat-shit. Not winning minds and hearts there.

I'm not questioning the general thrust of your indigenous people of the globe thing, but you really gotta do a hell of a lot better than a video of some dude using the say-so of the "great anthropologist" Adolf f***king Hitler to make your points.; Jul 25, 2011, 6:04:00 PM

You would be right.

If this was a popularity contest.

If this was a game of "winning" people over to a theory... it would be difficult to persuade people of a truth because "Hitler said it."

In fact ... if you wanted to prevent people from believing something ... you would be well served by teaching them 'Hitler said it'.

Truth or no truth ... they are going to reject it because they have been taught to reject particular people and to ignore ideas.

Challenge yourself to get beyond the messenger.

WHAT did he say?

WHY did he say it?

Is what he said FALSIFIABLE?

Then falsify it and fuck who said it.; Jul 25, 2011, 6:41:00 PM

"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."

The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
