Remember when the creationists were the big problem?


For those that don't know what Clubhouse is: Clubhouse is an invitation-only audio-chat iPhone app. It's been popular lately among the media, tech, and activist groups.





quote:

A brief exchange on Clubhouse between

@BretWeinstein

and Brooklyn, an activist who took over the room. Everyone seemed in agreement on this.


quote:

To be clear, I am not extrapolating from this single example. I've been hearing this exact same talking point for years, sometimes even from biologists. Many evolutionary biologists don't push back. They think it will just go away on its own. It won't.


quote:

Eugenics is really just evolutionary theory within artificial constructs. Leftists were bound to realize this sooner or later, and dismiss evolutionary theory accordingly. We're seeing the birth of a new religion. Spirit is already there, only formal structure is lacking.




YouTube video w/audio of Clubhouse chat even more revealing

I don’t think “Brooklyn” will change the scientific community’s point of view regarding eugenics and evolutionary biology.

I love this discussion.

Eugenics is a fact. And it works.

Its a tool. There is no moral claim.


Its such a juicy subject for those reasons because pea-brains cant separate the different parts of the debate.

Can I get a summary of some specific claims from actual people in the field? I have literally no idea what is going on, and I'm tangentially related to the field. That context you provided is not of academic quality, unfortunately. He says some spurious things in an attempt to settle debates, but doesn't dive into why, for example, the estimates of transgender people are higher than the strict prevalence of Disorders of Sex Development.

ETA: I didn't listen to the audio because I need to read things.

Who gives a shite?


I mean really, when are we going to just ignore the 5-10% of nut jobs on the far left and far right?

Do you understand how fricking frustrating it is when I say I'm center-left and get automatically tossed in with the SJW, radical left who I actually disdain? What about y'all on the right? You're a small government conservative but do you enjoy getting lumped in with anti-democratic white nationalist movements or the Q-tards?

Every time someone posts some outlandish shite that "the other side" did, it just keeps this cycle going.


IGNORE THEM!!! Take away the oxygen and maybe they'll finally just shut the frick up and crawl back into their holes.

On the flip-side of what pretty much everyone is saying here is that I think it makes people nervous when Joe-Bob from the country store who thinks higher education is a joke starts talking about how everyone is pussies now and there needs to be natural selection. You want to have a conversation about natural selection and evolution within the human race? Sure that's fine. But first acknowledge that big brain, higher education people took over the world a long time ago. You are just living in a world they created, affected by science that you probably can't even begin to understand in just about every facet of your life. Bombs big enough to level your entire city could rain down on you and you probably haven't the slightest clue how they work. Sorry Joe-Bob, no chance in hell that you are the arbitor of natural selection. You are just a psychopath with dreams of killing people that you are trying to rationalize.

Well this psycho seemed totally rational. It would be like me going to her job ordering a medium coke and start yelling at her that its a small amd not a medium. Its Like she would know way better than i the difference between small and medium cups.
