- [17:56:27] <JohnGuru> <Ragtime^> Thanks to Donald Trump, people are saying Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays.
- [17:57:06] <Ragtime^> well, it was germaine to Christmas
- [17:57:23] <Malkovich> haha
- [17:57:24] <Cyberclaus> germaine jackson!
- [17:57:26] <Cyberclaus> ahem
- [17:57:26] <Malkovich> That's a fucking lie.
- [17:57:48] <Ragtime^> what kind of language is that for Christmas?
- [17:58:02] <Malkovich> Real talk (tm)
- [17:58:08] <Cyberclaus> Merry Christmas ya scurvy bastids!!!
- [17:58:10] <JohnGuru> what's the sense in stealing $1.5 Trillion from the people for christmas?
- [17:58:27] <JohnGuru> that was his goal, right? Get it passed by christmas?
- [17:58:30] <Ragtime^> Perhaps it was what the people wanted.
- [17:58:34] <JohnGuru> he even said so
- [17:58:52] <JohnGuru> 77% of the public hate the tax bill, and why shouldn't they?
- [17:59:09] <Malkovich> He signed it before the new year, too, so the PayGo rules applies and cuts to Medicare are coming.
- [17:59:10] <JohnGuru> we do still take polls, Ragtime^
- [17:59:36] <Ragtime^> Yes, but the only poll that counts is the electoral college.
- [18:00:03] <JohnGuru> I hear the white house staff makes up fake polls for Donald :)
- [18:00:07] <Malkovich> Supply-side economic reforms have never actually led to an economic boom.
- [18:00:33] <Ragtime^> Ronald Reagan started an 18 year bull market.
- [18:00:39] <JohnGuru> he is too narcissistic to be able to handle the truth (didn't somebody make a movie about that?), and he's too dumb to research the poll numbers himself
- [18:00:41] <Malkovich> After he raised taxes.
- [18:01:21] <Malkovich> We need to go back to Einsenhower-era progressive tax brackets.
- [18:01:33] <Malkovich> Eisenhower = last half-way decent Republican President.
- [18:01:38] <Ragtime^> That put him in a better position to politely tell Mr. Gorbachev to tear down a wall.
- [18:01:52] <Ragtime^> Under Eisenhower, there was a 90% tax bracket.
- [18:02:00] <JohnGuru> yes, and the country prospered
- [18:02:22] <JohnGuru> starting with Reagan, the richest people did well, but income of the working middle class stagnated
- [18:02:33] <JohnGuru> that's when, because of the new tax rates, income equality began to skyrocket
- [18:02:36] <JohnGuru> thank you Mr. Reagan
- [18:02:59] <Ragtime^> JohnGuru: do you propose a solution to that?
- [18:03:34] <JohnGuru> yes, several solutions actually. A whole raft of economic changes. I could post some videos by Richard Wolff, of Democracy at Work D@W organization, if you like
- [18:03:47] <JohnGuru> starting with hefty increases in the tax rates of the richest brackets
- [18:04:13] <Ragtime^> The one thing the American people overwhelmingly want is immigration control.
- [18:04:28] <JohnGuru> Ragtime^, you don't have the vaguest notion of what the American people want.
- [18:04:44] <JohnGuru> you're in the propaganda business, not the facts business
- [18:04:48] <Ragtime^> the last election gave me a clue
- [18:05:03] <JohnGuru> yes, me too! 2 million more votes for the Democrats
- [18:05:30] <JohnGuru> Turnip started out being a minority president, and it's getting worse
- [18:06:14] <JohnGuru> So Ragtime^, ifyou want to drive your car into some liberals, now is the time before the 2018 midterms.
- [18:07:54] <Ragtime^> JohnGuru: That would be against the law. I found that I can do more damage to the enemy if I comply with the law.
- [18:08:25] <JohnGuru> Don't see why you should comply with the law, Ragtime^. Nobody in Trump's administration does
- [18:08:54] <JohnGuru> you can probably get a pardon, just like Nazi Joe Arpaio :)
- [18:09:17] <Ragtime^> I don't recall ever seeing Sheriff Joe wearing a swastika arm band.
- [18:09:21] <JohnGuru> the gangsta president
- [18:10:07] <Ragtime^> I just received an offer that I cannot refuse.
- [18:10:12] JohnGuru deep breaths
- [18:11:01] <Ragtime^> The leader of a political party has asked me to be his speechwriter.
- [18:12:05] <JohnGuru> okay, I'll give you a tip, Ragtime^. It's not a good idea to call him "der Fuehrer."
- [18:12:21] <Ragtime^> I don't know German anyway.
- [18:12:34] <JohnGuru> but you know that phrase :)
- [18:13:24] <Malkovich> Lugenpresse!
- [18:13:32] <JohnGuru> whoa
- [18:13:46] <JohnGuru> that's the German translation of "Fox News" isn't it
- [18:14:05] <Malkovich> haha
- [18:14:08] <Malkovich> Basically.
- [18:14:42] <Ragtime^> you prefer fake news?
- [18:15:18] <JohnGuru> nah. I finally blocked Fox News posts to my timeline, Ragtime^
- [18:15:43] <JohnGuru> I thought I might learn something by monitoring, but it was nothing but hate posts
- [18:15:52] <Ragtime^> It is aways nice to have a free press.
- [18:17:41] <JohnGuru> I see they've ramped up a propaganda war against Mueller now. That's going to be fun

- [18:21:58] <muadnem> There's a good montage of Obama saying merry Christmas publicly about 100 times on YouTube. The 'war on Christmas' never existed.
- [18:22:16] <JohnGuru> well, facts don't matter to propaganda organizations, do they
- [18:22:36] <JohnGuru> in fact, in fascist states, facts are often considered subversive
- [18:22:40] <muadnem> Obama seems way more likely to actually be a Christian than trump.

- [18:33:16] <JohnGuru> last I saw, Fox News was using the method popularized during world war II by the japanese for identifying american planes. FN puts up an image of a liberal political figure, some enemy of their 'state,' and scrawl a message of hate over it. Everybody gets to post a comment about how vile this person is.
- [18:33:46] <JohnGuru> it's very personal, and it's very incendiary
- [18:34:03] <JohnGuru> no informational content whatsoever. Just mocking excoriation

- [18:40:33] <Malkovich> ... but European culture is not a monolithic thing.
- [18:41:31] <+friida> the african human genome on the continent of africa has far more depth than the rest of the world
- [18:41:54] <JohnGuru> I believe that's true
- [18:42:08] <+friida> all the emigre's from there amounted to a very small portion of the whole, and then THEY spread out and became asians and europeans etc

- [18:43:08] <JohnGuru> ah, so your point is that Fox News it he result of inbreeding :)
- [18:43:14] <mime> JohnGuru Its actually the opposite way...
- [18:43:48] <+friida> foxnews is the result of parent child couplings, sibling couplings, etc, for at least five generations
- [18:44:29] <+friida> the toothbrush was invented at fox news, otherwise it would have been called the Teeth Brush

- [18:45:35] <mime> Here is an advanced genetical model illustrating how this works.
- [18:46:18] <mime> JohnGuru Well, so you are correct on inter-specie level, so to speak. But I dont take regard to subsets when saying its the opposite way.
- [18:47:08] <mime> Its genetic segregation which occurs at inter-specie level.
- [18:47:23] <mime> Thus variations become smaller and smaller within the same species, but bigger compared to others.
- [18:47:25] <JohnGuru> There was a project sponsored by National Geographic called the Genographic project. They invited people to send in a sample of their DNA, typically a swab of the inside of one's mouth, and they would identify the various genetic branches of one's ancestors. Many people who thought they were "pure white" had african forebears, and people who hated jews had some jewish ancestors... it
- [18:47:25] <JohnGuru> was very eye-opening for the participants
- [18:47:45] <mime> Such "surprises" just comes from ignorance in the first place...
- [18:48:07] <JohnGuru> there's just no such thing as a "white man"
- [18:48:32] <mime> Well, thats a little strange, JohnGuru. First of all, there is really no such thing as homo sapiens - there is no specie-type for that.
- [18:49:03] <mime> "nlike every other human species, Homo sapiens does not have a true type specimen. In other words, there is not a particular Homo sapiens individual that researchers recognize as being the specimen that gave Homo sapiens its name. "
- [18:49:05] <Ragtime^> If the liberals claim that race does not exist, then why do they push affirmative action?
- [18:49:06] <mime> Unlike*

- [18:49:14] <lakituscloud> — "Homo sapiens | The Smithsonian Institution's Human Origins Program"
- [18:50:01] <JohnGuru> Ragtime^, the U.S. is the most racist country in the world
- [18:50:03] <mime> Many people think we come from One Origin, like Adam and Eve in Creationism. Thats not so according to the Fossil records. There are multiple origins, it was actually springtime in Sibir some centuries ago.
- [18:50:59] <mime> So when one say "there is no such thing as a white man" - thats strange at multiple levels.
- [18:51:08] <fattratt> So when did the biped lose its feathers?
- [18:51:11] <JohnGuru> there is no such thing as a white man
- [18:51:23] <mime> Yeah, you can repeat it, JohnGuru, but what does it mean?
- [18:51:42] <+friida> when did the dinosaurs gain their feathers?
- [18:51:51] <mime> Likewise we could say; there is no humans, only st
- [18:52:05] <mime> ... only stardust, but that makes as little sense and isnt really helpful in any regard.
- [18:52:07] <JohnGuru> well, i'm bbl
- [18:52:16] JohnGuru (~jvalley69@JohnGuru.users.undernet.org) left IRC (Quit: nap time)
- [18:53:10] <mime> There is huge variations and differences between humans, much bigger than seen in other animals and their subsets, for example. Just look at an Asian, and a Caucasian.

- [18:53:51] <lakituscloud> — "Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - Woodstock - YouTube"
- [18:53:57] <mime> Here even the origins is different, you know and consist of exclusive and specific admixture. These differences will no go away by changing some definitions or looking at the world from a different perspective.
- [18:54:07] <mime> These are natural differences, and as seen by genetic drift, they arent going to go away.
- [18:54:21] <+friida> the way i see it is darker skin colour is a result of evolution in regards to the harsh effects of the Sun, so first humans lose their body hair, then the skin is affected and changes to darker skin (over generations)
- [18:54:34] <+friida> what this means is white people only recently lost their fur
- [18:54:44] friida raises a defiant eyebrow
- [18:55:11] <mime> Well, skin-color is really a bad anthropological standard, and many misunderstand it due to phenotypical categorization of humans according to their color; such is much more than skin-deep.
- [18:55:36] <mime> A "white black person", for example one suffering from albinoism, is still not the same human as the other object.
- [18:55:48] <+friida> yes, but my explanation is petty enough to explode thru the meme world if propogated rush limbaugh style
- [18:56:20] <+friida> survival of the fittest and all that
- [18:56:26] <+friida> Wagner would be so proud!
- [18:57:57] <mime> Its simply not correct that skin-color is merely a phenotypical trait. Its genetical and it constitute one of our differences, which is much more than color by itself. A Spaniards is as little a black man as a Chinese is Caucasian.
- [18:58:29] <mime> For some reason we must also call black people for black, and not by their scientific name.
- [18:58:34] <mime> That also confuse the debate.

- [19:01:02] <+friida> both are
- [19:01:21] <mime> Yeah, I have already explained that confusion. "Homo Sapiens" is just a name, its not a specie-type.
- [19:01:30] <+friida> a black and a white can successfully breed repeatedly and reproduce progeny who can also breed with anybody

- [19:02:08] <+friida> it's not like a horse breeding with a donkey
- [19:02:22] <mime> A horse and a donkey is two different species, they arent subgroups.
- [19:02:28] <+friida> correct
- [19:02:35] <mime> That you need sexual compatability to consiste subgroups is BS.
- [19:02:40] <mime> There are thousands of subgroups of mice.

- [19:02:53] <+friida> a black person and a white person have less than 1/2 variation between them
- [19:03:19] <mime> That would depend on how many alleles you investigate. If you only take 20, there are fewer differences; they are still differences. If you take 100; there are only differneces, hehe.

- [19:06:28] <+friida> that's YUGE
- [19:06:31] <mime> Thats a difference, yes, but its much more than color-deep.

- [19:11:47] <mime> You dont need many scientifically observations to establish that there are differences between an Asian and an European. But science tells us why this is, how this is and what to make of it - to simply reject science and what we observe, based upon some misnomer, is simply not smart.
- [19:11:51] <mime> It discredit very serious people.
- [19:12:52] <mime> It discredits all evidences, it discredits everything we value as accuracy, proof, yes, the entire scientific discipline is undermined by such.
- [19:13:55] <mime> We could just as well become Scientologists :-)
- [19:14:32] <+friida> all right, i'm clear, now what? (Charles Manson at the Hollywood Scientology Center)

- [19:15:48] friida not smart enuf for science
- [19:16:05] <mime> The second world war and what is portrayed as the horrors therefor, is probably the most substantial reasons to why many rejects truth and reality to the benefit of anti-science, but thats not doing science, thats doing horseshit.
- [19:16:30] <mime> At BEST, rhetorics. But its not even rhetorics.
- [19:16:34] <+friida> yes! yes! the second world war was nothing but fun!!!
- [19:16:37] <+friida> :D
- [19:16:51] <mime> Are you bored on Christmas Day, friida?
- [19:17:05] <+friida> merry christmas
- [19:17:17] <mime> Thank you and blessed Christmas to you and your family as well, friida :-)
- [19:18:14] friida writes that down on her calendar
- [19:18:24] <+friida> dec 25 is christmas
- [19:18:27] <+friida> ok, got it
- [19:18:38] <mime> Well, its the Vigil, so Europe really celebrates the 24th.
- [19:19:13] <mime> After 17:00 on the 24th of December, Christmas has begun.
- [19:19:18] <+friida> dec 24 is christmas, got it
- [19:20:58] <mime> So, we have established that humans is really just a name and that what we denote by it is really different and diverse at all levels.
- [19:21:23] <+friida> and all those subspecies that claim to be human should be rounded up
- [19:21:32] <mime> "Human" is just a name.
- [19:21:36] <mime> There is no specie-type for it.
- [19:21:52] <+friida> so my dog is a human?
- [19:22:05] <mime> Dogs has a true specie-type, hehe.
- [19:22:10] <mime> Homo Sapiens do not.
- [19:22:27] <mime> This is where the creationist narrative of the lacking transitional fossils comes from, you know.
- [19:22:32] <+friida> so homo sapiens are wanna be dogs, wanna be chimps, wanna be marmosets, etc?
- [19:22:34] <mime> They arent lacking; they are just not homo sapiens.
- [19:23:18] <mime> Homo sapiens is just a name we use of the diverse and different offsprings of the various humanoid ancestors.
- [19:23:27] <mime> It do not have a true type.
- [19:23:30] <+friida> so, YOU are not homo sapiens?
- [19:23:47] <+friida> pardon my french, what the phuc are you?
- [19:24:04] <mime> Homo Sapiens is just a name we use to denote all the diverse offsprings of humanoid ancestors who arent homo sapiens.
- [19:24:13] <mime> Its just more accurate to call me Caucasian.
- [19:24:15] <Malkovich> uh
- [19:24:46] <mime> "Unlike every other human species, Homo sapiens does not have a true type specimen. In other words, there is not a particular Homo sapiens individual that researchers recognize as being the specimen that gave Homo sapiens its name."
- [19:24:52] <+friida> so you are ignoring scientific nomenclature of speciation in order to be a special white race?
- [19:24:55] <mime> Smithsonian institute.
- [19:25:15] <mime> Of course not, friida - I just use it according to scientific nomenclature correctly.
- [19:25:20] <mime> Its just a name without a true type.
- [19:25:31] <+friida> I am not caucasion

- [19:25:37] <mime> So what?
- [19:25:38] <+friida> i'm a subhuman
- [19:25:46] <+friida> no wonder you can't teach me anything
- [19:25:46] <mime> Then you are something else, friida and thats equally fantastic?
- [19:25:54] <mime> So many misnomers here.
- [19:26:27] <+friida> hell, i'm not even human
- [19:26:31] <+friida> thanks mime
- [19:26:43] <mime> Its just a name used to denote the offsprings of non-homo sapiens, yes.
- [19:26:58] <mime> As you are such an offspring, you are of course a human, friida. But its not very scientifical. Its just a name.
- [19:27:01] <mime> It has no type.
- [19:27:05] <+friida> so why do they even use the name homo sapiens,
- [19:27:10] <mime> I explained that, friida.
- [19:27:16] <+friida> shouldn't they excise it from the language?
- [19:27:18] <+friida> you did?
- [19:27:30] <+friida> sorry, i have the attention span of a bird sapiens
- [19:27:35] <mime> Its merely a concept, a terminology, friida.
- [19:27:51] <mime> You must understand what this terminology denote, in order to use it correctly. It do not denote a speciemen.
- [19:28:29] <+friida> we could just change the dictionary definition to say human being is john glenn
- [19:28:35] <+friida> then it would have a spaceman

- [19:29:03] <mime> It would be correct to say that every offspring of mentioned humanoid ancestors are called human, but they have no true ancient type or anything like that. Its merely a name.
- [19:29:24] <+friida> so we are all Bob
- [19:29:28] <mime> Yeah
- [19:29:28] <+friida> ?

- [19:29:48] <+friida> mime is telling me human beings do not exist
- [19:29:58] <mime> You are very dishonest, friida.
- [19:29:59] <+friida> only caucasians and negroids exist
- [19:30:03] <Deanr`> friida: oh, well....
- [19:30:07] <mime> Its better to be dumb, but I am not sure you are dumb.
- [19:30:20] <+friida> mime, I don't believe you
- [19:30:28] <mime> Its very clear that the offsprings of mentioned ancestors exist, friida.
- [19:30:32] <thymos^> i am mime's favorite negroid
- [19:30:32] <+friida> I think you have a very definite surety about me
- [19:30:33] <mime> But its merely a name; its not a type.
- [19:30:54] <+friida> you are my favourite negroid too, thymos

- [19:31:59] <+friida> happy birth of zombieboy!
- [19:33:50] <mime> So, homo sapiens is merely a general term used about the diverse and different offsprings of equally diverse and different ancestors.
- [19:34:02] <mime> Its not a species-type.
- [19:34:06] <+friida> are you a raccoon then?
- [19:34:14] <mime> Thats not the same thing, friida. Please.
- [19:34:51] <+friida> all homonids can be traced back to Lucy
- [19:35:02] <mime> Thats not correct.

- [20:20:19] <Cyberclaus> on an unrelated and stupid note
- [20:21:01] <mime> But then again, America is merely 250 years old. There has been done a lot of reaserch before that time, and also after that time in already established countries, like England and Germany.

- [20:22:06] <mime> But I dont think that has stopped them from obtaining both acknowledgment, reputation and progress in understanding.
- [20:22:56] <Cyberclaus> the world is ancient... 20 years at a time

- [20:23:36] <zenmonkey> they keep it secret
- [20:24:21] <mime> There is also this sociological factor, that "American" is more a legal term than a scientific term. Like dr. Ivar Giæver, who won the nobel prize in physics. He later became American, and thus didnt win this prize for America...

- [21:03:27] <LionClan> David Hilbert did the algebraic union of time and space, and asked his friend Hermann Minkowski to investigate the geometric implications; Hermann Minkowski taught spacetime to Albert Einstein.
- [21:09:07] <LionClan> Bernhard Rust was the nazi minister of education and culture removed the Jewish influence from Gottingen University, so all three came to America.
- [21:14:08] <mime> Hilbert do not seem to have come to America, but died in Germany in 1943 according to Wikipedia.
- [21:16:44] <mime> Wikipedia could be wrong, but it lists some sources regarding these relations. However, there is a jewish stereotype which ruins any debate.
- [21:17:44] <mime> These stereotypes simply shut down any analytical approach to anything which involves "Jew", as identifier or similar.
- [21:18:52] <+friida> the jews are not a race
- [21:19:37] <mime> Well, that is a difficult topic. By some factors, a jew is simply a person born of a mother who held a certain religious opinion.
- [21:19:39] <Cyberclaus> abrahamic religions
- [21:19:51] <Cyberclaus> borrowed a lot from zoroaster
- [21:20:00] <+friida> correct
- [21:20:15] <mime> This is for example the case with converts, and generally also the attitude among the "native jews".
- [21:21:28] <mime> On the other hand, some scientists claims that there are some specific genetic markers exclusive to the jews, which is nothing but natural as they have amalgamated with other people and thus left their specific markers in some populations.
- [21:21:29] <+friida> there is no genetic difference at all between the jewish people of israel and the palestinians around them
- [21:21:30] ZShurp (~ZShurp@71.204.203.156) joined the channel
- [21:21:42] <mime> Hehe, exactly.
- [21:22:05] <mime> But that is a little generalized, I think. For jews are by no means a homogeneous group. If you travel to Israel, that will become very apparent.
- [21:22:07] <+friida> except for millions of aleles

- [21:23:13] <mime> There is also this show on YouTube, called "Ask an Israeli", which will serve the same purpose as an actual trip to Israel for observing this fact.
- [21:23:31] <mime> They come from all over the world, generally speaking.
- [21:23:38] <mime> And that is very, very apparent of course.

- [21:33:58] <Cyberclaus> it is the generalized derogatory hour
- [21:34:00] <Cyberclaus> is that it?
- [21:34:28] <mime> Is there a problem to say that jews as being wanderers has with time strayed outside of their ghettos neighborhoods - much like black ghettos today - and their biological origins?
- [21:34:39] <mime> Its clear for example in the case of Jewish Germans, and Jewish Ethiopians.
- [21:35:37] <mime> I dont get your problem, Cyberclaus. It seems to be much more a private problem of rationalization and such, than an actual problem.
- [21:36:04] <Cyberclaus> you appear to be complaining about jews
- [21:36:05] <mime> Whats the problem, Cyberclaus? Cant speak about Jews, thats anti-semitism or something like that, speaking about Jews?
- [21:36:10] <ZShurp> mime, is it a problem to say that Betelgeuse has no observed planets?
- [21:36:15] JohnGuru (~jvalley69@JohnGuru.users.undernet.org) joined the channel
- [21:36:16] <Cyberclaus> complaining the key concept
- [21:36:17] <mime> Cyberclaus I am merely being objective and factual.
- [21:36:27] <Cyberclaus> weak argument
- [21:36:29] <Sol> Its THE JEWY JEW HOUR NOW?
- [21:36:32] <ZShurp> The variation in Betelgeuse's brightness was first described in 1836 by Sir John Herschel, when he published his observations in Outlines of Astronomy.
- [21:36:34] <mime> I am sorry, but accusation is even worse, Cyberclaus.
- [21:36:43] <zenmonkey> ZShurp what do you have against the betelgueze?
- [21:36:49] <Cyberclaus> you are steering the convo mime
- [21:36:53] <Cyberclaus> into idiocy
- [21:36:58] <ZShurp> zenmonkey, it doesn't have any observed planets. This is clearly a crime against planets
- [21:36:59] <Cyberclaus> it's fundamentally annoying
- [21:37:05] <mime> No, you are doing that, and you accuse people of things they have not said, done or intended.
- [21:37:11] X sets mode +o Cyberclaus
- [21:37:14] <ZShurp> Betelgeuse has committed planetcide
- [21:37:24] <@Cyberclaus> I have a better idea
- [21:37:33] Cyberclaus sets mode -o Cyberclaus
- [21:37:38] <JohnGuru> lol
- [21:37:47] X sets mode +o JohnValuk
- [21:37:52] <heythere> isn't that star a red giant, a dying star? .. maybe it absorbed all its planets when it expanded
- [21:37:53] <JohnGuru> ah
- [21:38:06] <JohnGuru> The Great and Powerful Oz
- [21:38:11] <Cyberclaus> hah
- [21:38:14] <mime> As I think is very obvious here, there is a jewish stereotype, often denoted by the term anti-semitism, which effectively shut down any analytical approach to anything "jewish", as identifier or similar.
- [21:38:25] <ZShurp> heythere, probably. Or blasted them out. Or we just can't observe them because the radial velocity method doesn't work on variable stars
- [21:38:36] <JohnGuru> merry xmas ZShurp, zenmonkey
- [21:38:38] <Sol> Do jews have a land holding right to Israel?
- [21:38:44] <zenmonkey> hey johnguru
- [21:38:45] <Sol> based in historical and biblical terms?
- [21:38:50] <@JohnValuk> your aggravation fest mime is about to end
- [21:38:52] <mime> We just have to accept the historical facts at this biological level, Cyberclaus. There is no problem with that.
- [21:39:05] <zenmonkey> well mime I'm not saying your mother is fat at all. not saying anything like that. and I'm certainly not going to comment on her sexuality.
- [21:39:14] <mime> huh?
- [21:39:31] <ZShurp> *OH*, well that is interesting
- [21:39:33] <mime> What is very clear on the other hand, is that jews as wanderers has strayed outside of the ghettos and their biological lineage and ancestry in some cases.
- [21:39:37] <zenmonkey> I didn't say anything is wrong about your mother's promiscuity
- [21:39:38] <mime> That is very obvious.
- [21:39:50] <mime> Such can be seen in the case of the diversity of groups in Israel, for example.
- [21:39:50] <JohnGuru> zen, you been reading Derrida again?
- [21:39:52] <Sol> I guess the Zionist started buying up land before WW II and the zion international congress was establsihed well before any sympathy of the british for jewish holocaust survivors. The Zionist congress was looking for a homeland I think.
- [21:39:55] <ZShurp> I just read that Betelgeuse is only 8 million years old -- too young for stars to have even formed
- [21:40:11] <ZShurp> It looks like giant stars don't stick around long enough for planets to form
- [21:40:18] <ZShurp> before they go *kaboom*
- [21:40:31] <JohnGuru> okay, I allow all kinds of dirty talk in here, but talking about astrophysics is asking for trouble
- [21:40:38] <Cyberclaus> hah
- [21:40:41] <Cyberclaus> star dirt
- [21:40:46] <JohnGuru> *nods*
- [21:41:02] <Cyberclaus> molecules that think
- [21:41:05] <Cyberclaus> very cosmic
- [21:41:09] <mime> I think some people are more emotional than rational when it comes to certain topics, and I dont know why the jewish topic is hypersensitive.
- [21:41:10] <Sol> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Zionist_Congress
- [21:41:12] <lakituscloud> — "First Zionist Congress - Wikipedia"
- [21:41:14] <Sol> first meeting 1897
- [21:41:15] <Cyberclaus> topic selection is a deep mystery
- [21:41:17] <JohnGuru> well, I don't believe molecules think
- [21:41:24] <Sol> they were interested in buying up land in palestine well before any modern wars
- [21:41:37] <JohnGuru> I've decided to come around to Dennett's point of view. Brains don't think, they just think they do
- [21:41:44] <Cyberclaus> mime the problem is that your inflammitory range is very narrow
- [21:41:46] <ZShurp> Hey, JG, I'm just relating certain facts about the evolution of giant stars, I'm not trying to stereotype anyone
- [21:41:48] <mime> Any jews or others are welcome to try to refute science, but thats really redundant.
- [21:41:52] <Cyberclaus> too few groups to bash
- [21:41:58] <mime> Stop accusing people of what you project, Cyberclaus.
- [21:42:01] <ZShurp> "they just think they do", heh, no contradiction there :)
- [21:42:04] <JohnGuru> ZShurp, okay. I was going to try to make a joke but
- [21:42:21] <Cyberclaus> inflammitory mime
- [21:42:32] <Cyberclaus> you have merely selected a common topic
- [21:42:46] <JohnGuru> ZShurp, I know, it seems paradoxical, self-refuting, but that's only becasue the language is ordi8nary and not technical
- [21:42:52] <mime> You arent even addressing what I say, Cyberclaus, but accuse others of your feelings.
- [21:43:09] <Cyberclaus> read your own logs blather
- [21:43:11] <Cyberclaus> it's blather
- [21:43:18] <JohnGuru> his point is more along the lines that there is no such thing as consciousness, but the signs that brains make, in electronic form, signify consciousness but it's not ACTUAL
- [21:43:25] <JohnGuru> it just represents consciousness.
- [21:43:33] <mime> Next time, try to be an adult and read what is said, Cyberclaus. Stop projecting your BS into what others say and dont say.
- [21:43:44] <JohnGuru> sort of like whenever you have a representation of something that doesn't exist
- [21:43:45] <zenmonkey> consciousness is a word that denotes a phenomena
- [21:43:53] <Cyberclaus> you are citing old noise mime
- [21:44:00] <Cyberclaus> why bother to cite it at all?
- [21:44:01] <JohnGuru> zen, yes, but you're being reasonable.
- [21:44:04] <heythere> like unicorns?
- [21:44:07] <Sol> 8 million years is short for some sort of biochemical evolutoin probably.
- [21:44:07] <ZShurp> A representation of consciosuness without consciousness? OK, that makes my head hurt
- [21:44:09] <JohnGuru> yes, like unicorns
- [21:44:10] <mime> You have a lot of ad hominems, Cyberclaus. They are becoming boring and predictable.
- [21:44:12] <ZShurp> I'd rather talk about Zionists
- [21:44:17] <zenmonkey> to say that human brains are not conscious, you are really implying some primitive understanding of consciousness is wrong. it's what consciousness *is*
- [21:44:26] <JohnGuru> or money. The paper, the coins, etc. are all representations of money but the money ITSELF does not exist.
- [21:44:34] <Cyberclaus> I try to be objective
- [21:44:40] <Cyberclaus> but a stream of blather is just that
- [21:44:42] <Cyberclaus> blather
- [21:44:47] <JohnGuru> if I were objective, I'd be dead
- [21:44:51] <Cyberclaus> haaa
- [21:44:58] <Cyberclaus> you might be a lens :)
- [21:45:05] <mime> I understand that you project something into what is said, Cyberclaus. That is very evident. But you dont prove that what I have said is inaccurate.
- [21:45:05] <Cyberclaus> wordplay
- [21:45:07] <Cyberclaus> yay
- [21:45:09] <JohnGuru> zenmonkey, yes. Well, it's complicated isn't it
- [21:45:18] <zenmonkey> not to me
- [21:45:18] <Cyberclaus> mime yer a weasel
- [21:45:26] <Cyberclaus> and an amateur weasel at that
- [21:45:27] <JohnGuru> you really only have two choices, mysticism or objectivity
- [21:45:29] <mime> Are you done with the personal attacks soon?
- [21:45:47] <heythere> well some say money is like a language, but for expressing the change of ownership of value only
- [21:45:51] <zenmonkey> I don't have to know the inner workings of consciousness to know that the word "consciousness" denotes a phenomena
- [21:45:56] <Cyberclaus> I attack your topic choice
- [21:45:57] <JohnGuru> mime, if you just avoid stigmatizing the jews, you probably won't have a problem
- [21:45:59] <Cyberclaus> pick another one
- [21:46:03] <Cyberclaus> all will be lovely
- [21:46:05] <Cyberclaus> maybe
- [21:46:14] <JohnGuru> :)
- [21:46:19] <mime> The sooner you finish that childish stuff, you could rather focus on what is said and try to understand it, and then for example try to refute it if you think its inaccurate.
- [21:46:34] <mime> No one is stigmatizing the jews, JohnGuru.
- [21:46:38] <mime> Stop that BS.
- [21:46:39] <ZShurp> zenmonkey, maybe, maybe not -- it depends on what sort of ontology you're using. Perhaps the world is a strange sort of thing such that subjectivity can never itself be a phenomenon
- [21:46:41] <JohnGuru> heythere, oh yes, money is very much like language. Both are symbolic, where the entities represented are imaginary
- [21:46:48] <Cyberclaus> what you call history is no excuse to rant forever on it
- [21:47:10] <mime> No one has ranted and certainly not "forever", but this assbleed of yours seems to be a constant.
- [21:47:16] JohnValuk sets mode +b mime!*@*
- [21:47:24] <Cyberclaus> now you can listen and not pollute
- [21:47:41] <Cyberclaus> happy now?
