Sooo...

Is the reason we haven't come together as a species and started to work toward the common good nothing more than the effect of people being incapable of coming to an agreement over a number of philosophical arguments?

I talk to a lot of people, belong to a church although I'm an atheist, and I always like to ask big questions when I can get a person comfortable/abstract enough and it seems like a great deal of what sways a persons view of life and the makeup of their efforts is their perspective on the big questions.

Primarily
what happens when we die, what is the purpose of life, and how we relate to others in contrast to ourselves.

People have very specific coping mechanisms dependent on the perspective they hold over various philosophical issues.

I mean... We're all just brains, abstract complex processes ect ect so on and soforth.
We KNOW what's reasonable, what is the best for us and for others.

Why can't we just reach out... And take Utopia?

Probably true.
But memetics exist. There's a certain number of people that grasp the fact that information is co-evolutionary with humans.
Like... I know enough biology to know I shouldn't be an alcoholic, still am.
It seems to be really basic reason that should dictate how others are treated, certainly is not at all, systemically.

Why is it apparently more fortuitous for most people to be a zombie herd?
Is it because the people smart enough to do the herding have decided that on a philosophical level all that matters is their own experience and therefore everyone else might as well be zombies so long as it serves their own ends?

If a person is smart enough to engineer society how could they not see the reason in that the best possible outcome is everyone cooperating to a common good?>

The whole problem with stating that "we all know what's reasonable and what's best for us and others" is everyone's subjective view of the world and what they beleive lives up to those standards is subjective and so varied there can be no agreed apon absolute set of values.

At a fundamental level, yes I think so. But life's not that binary. At some point people will disagree. Sometimes those people are very powerful, and this is what creates a division of nations. We also have to consider our other differences such as culture. It is very difficult to assimilate, and most people find that it is a destructive process.

Well ya okay. The people who are at the top got there because they're ruthless and willing to climb there using the rest of us as stairs.

But if people are just brains full of information and reactions therein and society is just a bunch of people that all agree to uphold certain ideas then why hasn't it yet happened that a bunch of people came together to make up a bunch of arguments that people can't reasonably argue against and began the process of converting things into... Yaknow, general reasonable goodness?

If it's just a series of good arguments that you have to teach the reasonable people that really only amounts to writing a, 'What a good person is, how to be one and why that's important manual'?

Security, police and military are the most immature of humanity in a morality and spiritual sense. They give up their personal responsibility and responsibility for their actions to a higher athoritive power and think it makes their actions justified. The man locking his fellow man in a cage for a law written by other men is still fundamentally imprisoning another human. A soldier who kills another for his country still has killed another no matter what he has been led to believe and how he may think he is virtuous for enforcing the will of his government through lethal force. They are the most devided and mentally enslaved amungst humanity. At least the sociopath is living in accordance with his nature

A great deal of your statement appears to fall under the genre of identity dynamics.
Giving yourself up to a large identity is a natural social things that humans do for nature of being human.
What I wonder is that you can see humans caging other humans, and killing other humans.
But for some reason it seems that you cannot argue against those behaviors because more people agree with them than those that do not.

But that seems to imply that not all arguments are bound to reason/logic, and I wonder why that's so ridiculously effective.

And why do some people seem to back the arguments that don't have sense.

Nobody want's to be unreasonable... Right?
>>
>>721739486
Look dude, think about it.

If you were born in Medieval times under a ruthless and monstrous king, would you be inclined to invent a steam engine so that king could use it to cook you alive with it?

Summarily, if you hypotehtically had knowledge to build an anti-gravity mechanism with recycled magnetic energy for free, do you think you'd give away that knowledge so the people at the top could kill you for competing with >muhh oil companies?

If the people at the top want humanity to stagnate, then the ones at the bottom with the means to move humanity forward would be killed if discovered. If they're smart, they won't open their mouths, and they tend to be smart.

Look at Galieleo or countless others in history who had all the tools to advance humanity, but chose not to go further because their lives were threatened by petty, worthless wastes of life born already at the top with all the world's resources.

Control freak and soulless rich shitstains/satanists will always be there to stagnate and suffocate progress and science. They are not even human. They are a disease and so are their lackeys working for them.

There would have to be an absolute change in the vast populations mindset to enact a change like that. The argument of natural law is basicly what your speaking of and its been around for quite some time already. The ideology exists but it by no mean is it taught or practiced. The problem is humanity is by nature competing with itself via natural selection and not all are created equal by any means. Through different times and states of the world all of the different personality types and strategys have had been the most effective so there is no one unified ideal operating system for humans. This will always be the way of mankind and different intelegence levels has a huge effect also

Well yes but humanity describes all of us. Every human falls within the purview of humanity.

Societies and cultures are the mechanisms that regulate the function and teaching of individuals.

Natural law argument yes goes all the way back to the greeks and before to the first thinkers, what I keep asking is why don't the arguments to the effect of, "We should all be reasonable?" work.

I can understand religion and it's purpose and function and why it makes people more likely to believe not-truth because it's more comfortable, but why don't people who understand that rather than argue with religious people (Dawkins method) do more to systematically edit the information pool (Voltaire, Bill Nye, technically Hitler if you really need to mention Etc etc) for the next iteration to perhaps have the world be a bit better off?
>>
>>721740423
You're basically smelling your own farts dude.

Trying to be a pseudo-intellectual and blaming things on religion while ignoring the real problems like poverty and resource hoarding real people have to deal with on a daily basis.

But sure, keep blaming all of humanity's problems on "cultural norms" or other such bullshit when it can be summed up in one word:

Greed.

>>721736337
We might of been a better society if we weren't suppressed and subdued by religion. It makes people so stubborn that there is a man in the sky. It's philosophical ideals are flawed and primitive. I think it's not slowing down anytime soon with the population increase and the more people being controlled by social media and main stream bullshit. We are getting fucked more and more each day. The new generations will be the downfall of society and the start of a new with two classes. Upper class and sheep.

I feel like that's largely projection.
Not an argument against your statement but you seem to be assuming my stance despite the fact that I'm mostly just asking questions.

It takes a lot of work to create good arguments/conversations and this is arguably the worst place to do it but it's the medium I have at hand.

I'm more concerned with philosophy than I am with sociology yes.

And I'm not trying to sound/be intellectual, I just... Don't have better words for trying to have this conversation than what I'm using.

Greed, selfishness, subjective urges and needs and reflexes.

Yes. But we also have reason and love and math and school and everything. I'm not yelling into the void, "Why aren't things better!?"

More specifically my question remains, "If reasonable people eventually come to the conclusion that cooperation is the best way forward and being reasonable is the best way to do things." Why that form of thought isn't in any way popular?

Perhaps we have too much white matter?>

Another thing I've been thinking about and realized is the nature of ones upbringing pegs you to a certian lifestyle and social status. I beleive this is in a way controlled by the powers that shouldn't be also. The people in the world at the highest levels grow up in a much less violent environment and are schooled at private institutions that focus on their problem solving skills and more mental persuits. Now the people in the lower class grow up in the public schools system that if full of violence and state propaganda. They go home after that and watch tv etc and struggle to survive. I think the elite's upbringing builds a person in a way geared to in effect be able to have the best chance to in effect be apart of the group running the world if they are mentally capable of it. As for the plebs, the elite create a harsh social culture and world for them so as to keep them divided and easily manipulated/controlled. That's how you build the minds of soldiers and police and criminals and the easily manipulated populace as a whole.

>>721740746
Religion is just an effect of the larger problem of resource competition.

Religion was invented to control the poor into giving their resources to the already wealthy church.

Now instead of religion we have things like fake charities and social causes. Of course, all fake and quite wealthy already, just like the churches of old.

Don't blame the symptom for what the sickness does.

I don't think there is a secret ruling class.
And if there is it's only made of people and money.
Being born into a station is entirely normal, but why does everyone think that it's the be all end all? The framework is, like society, entirely imaginary and only continues to exist because enough people support it..

Advertising is easy, reason/being reasonable is an easy idea to plant in a person.

Does it have to be us? People on the internet or maybe an AI, that makes the comprehensive education of the people happen?

>>721740423
There are active groups of people working in unison with a shared beleif and goal running and directing the world vs the vast aggregate of the population that is raised in the school system the controllers built and watching mass media for the majority of their free time. They have structured society in such a way that we are all chasing our own tails and all pointed in different directions. You also have to remember the vast majority of humanity isn't smart enough to mentally work out the true value of morality without religious dogma dictating it and waving the threat of eternal damnation over their head to help with their self control. Also the death of god left people looking for something to fill that void and no set of solutions was offered. This leads to nihilism or beleif in political dogma to replace the religious morality. Think natsoc or communism and the unwavering faith in political dogma that killed over 100 million people in the 20th century from these beliefs in the state. Fucking dangerous and deadly

I believe, though feel free to argue with me, that religion is actually more of a symptom than a cause.
After people got reason and abstraction they understood death and existential crisis and needed something to make them feel better.
Thus a series of lies was agreed upon and people felt better.
Religious people are statistically more emotionally healthy, in part due to their enhanced capability to look at all the terrible things in the world and being able to have faith that there is a higher purpose and design to it and that someone loves them and that death is but a transition period.

Well if weren't born in a first world country you are fucked. On average you'll have no political power, let alone resources to sustain a family. If you were born in a first world country you would have a better lifestyle and education but the education system is flawed. Kids/teenagers don't feel sleepy till 10:00pm or above and usually have to get up at 6:00am. Unless you have an uneducated family on diets, you'll likely lose focus. Discipline is basically non existent so ferals will disrupt the lesson. Then kids will not likely pack good food as they will be distracted of a morning or not pack it at all as the food will get soggy and undesirable later in the day. When the kid gets home they'll likely do leisure activities until bedtime and repeat the cycle. Schools don't focus on expanding your vocabulary or putting good mental gearing in you before you leave. Instead your filled with garbage that teachers are required to teach from the education board. Assignments don't really help you but instead cause stress. You're not being taught how to live a prosperous life but instead how to get good marks and to fall in line.

The problem is everyone is strained because the resources are being hogged by the pigs at the top.

The education system is mentally handicapping students. The shit they teach doesn't interest the student as its brainless shit. It doesn't get them curious or get them thinking at all. Almost everything they teach isn't mentally arousing in any way. Essentially you learn the basics, learn a method, put your knowledge into action then poof! It doesn't exist anymore but only on your record as to how well you preformed. Schools basically waste all your early years as you only apply 20% of that knowledge. Wide reading is useless, analysis text and film should be optional, only basic math should be taught and not fucking Pythagoras and advanced algebra, history goes in depth into useless information etc. why don't schools encourage initiative and curiosity? Because they want it to be like this. Dumb fucking muscle brains that construct, go home and breed.

That drive is quite necessary and important for survival, especailly as we start traveling further into space.

A forced peaceful mindset means extinction and slavery on a galactic stage. But a species with a built-in defense mechanism becomes more survivable and competitive.

Hey retard. I have a question for you:

If religion and the idea of an intelligent universe is just something to comfort stupid people, why is it that the great minds throughout history, eg. Isaac Newton, Galileo etc were such keen students of occultist philosophy and theosophy? Nearly all known sketches attributed to Newton depicted Solomon's temple (in which occult teachings state Moses placed a representation of the planets in a circle around a large flame) and he spent most of his life contemplating ideas/artefacts like this.

It's incredibly arrogant to assume that you're somehow more intelligent than others just because you're an atheist. The parasites that run the planet have subverted every religion away from the path of truth, peace and the teachings of their founders.

I defiantly agree with you there. The base idea of Marxist utopia and the other socialist ideologs is a very sly play on pitting groups against each other to justify redistribution of wealth. The problem is the world is made up of individuals and a group is a mental construction. By lumping people into a group and saying they are exploiting you and you are a member of a exploited group dehumanizes the "rich" and justifys violence against individuals. Every person has a different history and path that has led to their state in life. Some is from family wealth, intelligence, innovation and hard work. This doesn't matter as your seen as the evil rich exploiters and as such seizing all your wealth is totally fine.

No... Do you even know how much some boats cost?

1000 low class working people won't even use up the value of an expensive boat in their entire lifetimes. Birth to grave.

Do you have any grasp at all at the quantities of money we are talking about here?

Think about how much a trillion dollars is.

That's a MILLION millions.

That's a MILLION millionaires.

Can you fucking grasp how much money that is? And the richest families in the world are rumored to have 30+ trillion or more.

Can you even fathom what kinds of quantities we are talking about here?

No, a thousand people workers use much less resources than the value of a single boat they're working on.

I recently watched the move "Arrival", and the plot reminds me of your argument.

>spoilers

12 alien vessels arrive on earth, all in culturally different locations. Each vessel has part of an equation to the evolution of intelligent life (FTL travel, infinite power, etc) and forces humans to unite as one, with the first step of learning a universal superior language to decipher the equation. The aliens do this because they need our help in 3000 years.

My point being, is that the only way we as a species will overcome our internal differences is with the help of extraterrestrial life, otherwise we are going to destroy our planet before we can leave our own solar system. I honestly think extinction is inevitable for us.

George Soros basically controls the foreign policies of the world using leftist ideology and mainstream media. If you kept up with politics at all you'd have heard of him.

Also, I.Q isn't everything. A person of average intelligence can become more powerful intellectually than some of the smartest minds of our time, purely because they have access to hidden knowledge/advanced philosophies that you can only study by being born incredibly wealthy. This makes them wiser a lot faster than the rest of us. It's like starting the game of life with cheat codes. You can raise your I.Q by studying and thinking more often about complex processes, especially if done from a young age when the brain readily absorbs information. The rich know this and have used it against us for a long time, teaching children fantasy stories and making their early education unproductive.

No. You're regurgitating bullshit here, what is "genetic potential"?

Society hasn't got a clue about the scope of human potential, we are nearly all capable of achieving anything we want, as long as the foundations are in place from an early age to make development efficient.

This is why they like to think there is some magical plain.

If there is and all the really smart people are just using this unknown magic then they dont have to feel so bad about being intellectual inferiors that only produce more inferiors.

The simply lack the genetics to have big complex brains that produce higher intellect and they need to explain it away to feel better about themselves.

Media and information has led to this unfair competition plain that people judge themselves off.

Most are not even in the league and develop massive mental problems and aggresion from this awareness as seen in this thread.

No you don't, kill them and the people on the rung immediately below just take their place, and do the same.

Look, I don't want to sound negative but at a certain point we just have to step back and admit that, unfortunately, human nature and these utopian ideals just don't mesh well together. The evolutionary processes that propelled us to the top of the food chain aren't compatible with philosophies such as that.

Honestly it all depends on how people were raised. Even though we knows what's good for everyone more often than not we stick to our normalities we were taught as kids because most people fear change, and don't want it. Plus with the over arching "class" structure now a days it's almost impossible for a "upper class person" to drop to "middle" or "lower". While controversially it's extremely hard to go up in class. So people will always be divided.

>No you don't, kill them and the people on the rung immediately below just take their place, and do the same.

Well if you kill the people at the top, you need to take out their lackeys who would repeat their efforts.

I really think personally, if this species has absolutely any chance of surviving, it will have to be as a predominantly military species. And it will have to shed its parasites killing it from the inside before it can proliferate into the stars.

Utopian ideals are actually quite feasible given the correct technology.
>>
>>721749155
And how far down do you have to go killing everyone? What makes you think that history won't repeat itself? How is making ourselves a "military species" help anything? How does that not just lead to the military leaders at the top becoming just as corrupt as whoever else was at the top to begin with? Sounds like exactly the same shit is gonna happen, just under a different name and by different individuals.

>>721748997
Homo sapient have domesticated themselves.
We continue to do so. some races are more domesticated then others and are more cooperative and able to create a utopia.(check the crime stats to see which)

Some others are still at proto human levels.

Now these proto humans breed allot faster as the dumb breed faster and are allowed and even supported to breed faster.

You see Utopian societies all over the place, they are simply being eroded. Sweden was utopia 30 years back for example.

Some asians countries/districts are utopia today.

>we are getting smarter
No we are not, we are getting dimmer and this has been the trend as long as intelligence is measured.
the genetic iq has been declining for hundreds of thousands of years.

you can see the reduction on intellect by the reducing size of skulls in all previous hominids.

it is a evolutionary given that brain sizes reduce.

Then on top of that there is a genetic admixture spreading in to western population groups that misses polygenes that relate to high intellect.

Homo apient as a whole is getting dumber.

Now the thing you are confused with is the small population that is of high iq and only breed with high iq partners.

This results in higher iq individuals.

This high iq median group is really small rapidly declining.

Smart people dont have enough children to change the world population iq median, that or dumb people breed to fast, (probably a bit of both)
>>

No it isn't. Evolution has nothing to do with anything we are talking about. It's a process where populations slowly begin to conform to their environments, not a set pathway where a population can become "more" or "less" evolved. Please don't use analogies you don't understand.

-what is tribalism
-reptilian brain (no not reptilians conspiracy, the oldest part of the human brain that controls survival instincts, greed, selfishness, contempt, jealousy, etc etc etc.)
-a mechanism for self managing population numbers, just like disease it is a way for nature to keep the fat trimmed so to speak to try and keep numbers from getting out of hand and no longer sustainable

these are a just few of the reasons in my opinion

i believe for it to change over time as a society we would have to all have a new perspective or viewpoint on ourselves and the world and after multiple generations of that all throughout the majority the reptilian brain would shrink or be reallocated to new thought or functions leading to a mental evolution/perception of the universe etc..

Do not let the lowest of the low breed, do not let the defects spread in to the main population groups.

Nature selected those out, we fucked with nature and now all the weak are breeding fast.

think 'faster/slower than' rather than 'fast/slow'.

the scale always measure the same thing, relative intelligence. It is humans who are changing, due to diet and the spread of education, and the scale reflects that.

How are you accepting this retarded thing when the alternative is there and has been there for 90 years.

no
the reason we can't come together as a species and work towards utopia is because
1. people are stupid
I don't mean this in an I hate all people way, I just mean our average intelligence is not that great
2. we don't all have that same goal. most people don't care about that shit, or rather don't care to live a lifestyle that would contribute to that shit. we're not just some robots that can wire ourselves to all push towards the same goal, we're individual people with individual lives, and most people see living life as more than contributing to take humanity to the next step
some of this falls in line with what you said but I think you took it to a broader scope than what it actually is.

The differences are there, but naming it does, categorizing does divide. Ya dip

The fact that you are looking for answers to a simple question. That you can't see for yourself proves to me that your line of thought is fucked boyo

Norming =/= skewing.
Considering iq test should be void of cultural influences this norming because of cultural changes should not be a thing.

We can't get to a utopia because huge numbers of people believe you only have the right to exist if you generate profit for an employer, and your worth as a human being is directly linked to how much profit you can generate. This Neo Feudalism takes advantage of a person's natural drive to be productive and exploits their natural intuitions about the value of hard work.

We aren't even moving towards a utopia because most people believe EVERYONE ELSE doesn't deserve to live in a utopia.

so what is the external value it's tied to? average intelligence of your grandad? how is that not still a relative, internal reference?
>>
>>721755561
Again you are talking about norming, this is changing the tests.

>>721755604

what are you on about? cultural influences?

>but naming it does, categorizing does divide
Naming is categorizing you stupid nigger.

>>721755667

what do you think I was talking about? They adjust the tests, and they adjust what a score of 100 entails, so they can have a solid 'norm' of 100.

are you responding to someone else by replying to me? If not, i'm not sure what you think you're arguing.

Why would you otherwise change the tests.
the test of iq should be fine, if your test groups data profile changes you should not change the test because as you say it the data profile with which they calculate the avg to set the value of 100 to changes.

So why change the test?
>>
>>721755604

"the standard scoring is set so performance at the population median results in a score of IQ 100."

they change it so that the average score is 100.

median average, as it says. IQ scores map a bell curve.

>>721755783
So you skew the data and you are pro this, why would you want that?

Some old dude is tested some new dude is tested, both are tested on different standards. as they took the tests at different times of history.

making the value of the data absolutely useless.

Why are they making the test results of iq value, why are they skewing this, why did they only recently started to do this?
>>
>>721755877

because it's a test of relative intelligence? if you have no normal distribution, then what does it relate to?

it's not externally referenced, it's internally referenced.

'smarter than average' requires a knowledge of the average score, which requires a large enough sample to sit the same test. In order to ensure the average sits at 100, they renorm the test.

this is literally psych101, honestly, can't wait til you get to 102, and start asking the real questions.

sure and when we stop counting the people who die we can stay alive for ever.

>cant you see that that is totally unscientific and making it completely pointless to take that test.

where did anyone say 'want' apart from you?

>>721756197
You speak highly in favor of adjusting the value by which you measure over time.

>>721743380

shoulders of giants. Newton was smart, but modern man has the advantage of centuries of work since him to lean on.

newton born today would be able to read thousands more books, and listen to many more lectures, and would therefore start with more understanding upon which to build.
