You think this is the chief value? Or is this just your own hangup? I almost married a black chick, even though I believe in hbd. I can see a lot of cultural and political effects that are far more important than snark snark autism snark.

Well, Sweden intentionally doesn't collect these kinds of stats, so it would be hard to prove. But I would suggest that the fact that they don't collect these kinds of stats is pretty damning. Where there's smoke...
So maybe not hard proof. But bayesian evidence, yes

I do think they have moral worth, but I've always wondered what anti-hunters think happens to animals that aren't shot in the wild. Best case scenario they get pushed out of the pack and die of starvation. Or they get killed by a predator, or disease. Some guy with a gun is not an obviously worse source of death to me, though I think they have to eat the meat for it to be ethical.

Does anyone know of any smart, young(ish) Christian thinkers with interesting perspectives? Been listening the This Cultural Moment, about being Christian in a post-Christian world. It's excellent, but I'm having trouble finding more.
How do the few motte Christians manage their faith? It's something I really struggle with. I had a religious experience where everything clicked, but my brain is not good at this sort of faith and I inevitably end up in doubt again. I hate it.

Thank you. I agree that the argument that it foments race hate falls flat when you take into account that the people saying this are pushing race hate.
I'm definitely at 3. I think there's too much invested in the illusion for it to fail. White elites can pivot to the anti-White resentments of certain minorities to outcompete other Whites. Arguments about truth are irrelevant, even harm to the very groups we claim to be protecting is irrelevant.
As long as that coalition is a source of power, this stuff can't be used to help anyone.
We're a long ways off from there really being no way to make money if you aren't substantially brighter than average. My plumber makes 250k, he's been doing it a while but his company is just him and two other guys.
I think that if we separated kids by ability and slotted them into tracks that lead to realistic career choices, you could have a lot of very successful Black and White tradesmen, foremen, etc.
But first, we'd have to admit that aptitude is a thing, and that not everyone can grow up to be a physicist. We make perfect the enemy of the good, and it's mostly the underserved who pay for it.

90 percent of the time I short post and I've never gotten shit for it. Except for when I'm a dumbass, but that isn't really a length issue

Children are more likely to stay in the religion if their father practices than if the mother practices. It isn't obvious to me why

I'm locked into starting a career in tech, in one of the wokest cities in the nation.
I need to make money. I'm hoping to start a family in the next few years, and if I'm lucky, I can make enough money that my wife won't have to work full time.
But I've heard a lot of horror stories. And while I was antiwoke in the past, I'm even more so today.
How can I survive in this field while minimizing the amount of "evil" that I have to be accomplice to? I'm not a great liar, and I do see this stuff as a form of mundane evil.

Man, those links are a trip. If I showed those to anyone back in the '90s, they'd think it was something a White supremacist put together.

It won't make you less interesting, and it's cool to subject yourself to things like this. That having been said, I'm not sure you want to create a narrative where something like this is just going to change everything you don't like about yourself. It can, however, be the start of that, if that's what you want.
Edit: All that said, I think we'd be better off if more people did crazy stuff like this. Go for it, have fun, learn something about yourself, and try not to die like the dumb kid who poisoned himself in Alaska

I don't believe the parasite class weakening the host shit.
I think they are a group of high achievers that agitate effectively as a class, and may preferentially hire other Jews.

I don't have any statistics, but I think Jews having outsized power in certain areas (Hollywood, banking) is fairly obvious.
I believe that Jews preferentially hire other Jews, but I don't have stats.
It also seems obvious that Jews agitate as a class.
Kanye has said a lot of crazy shit about a lot of people and groups, but look what happened when he went against Jews. They coordinated against him, and hurt him more effectively than any other group has been capable of.
Sometimes when I'm researching random shit I'll tell him about it.
He can be a useful sounding board. Basically an NYT liberal, but heterodox enough to be able to have certain conversations. It helps ground me.

I've heard about people doing this with extremely wealthy, famous people. Just send an invitation and wait for the assistant to send you a "can't make it but thanks" gift. Dunno what the success rate is, but it's funny
I don't believe in some grand Jewish conspiracy. I would expect them to interbreed with white elites. As Yarvin says, the story of Jews in America is a story of assimilation, not domination.
But the upper crust whites are a hell of a lot more Jewish than the bottom tier. And as such, they have more power. And because of the Holocaust/Jewish advocacy, they're still capable of agitating as a class when they want, in a way that upper crust whites can't or won't.
"They interbreed with other elites" isn't much of a gotcha for what I'm saying.
