Second ('Third') Trump Presidency Thread

[mqt]

We have lived in a period of relative peace for half a century globally. how is the progress of Africa and Middle East coming along in the pursuit of prosperity?

Africa and the Middle East have absolutely not enjoyed the same levels of peace in the past half century as “white” countries, but China is making some serious headway now that they’ve acquired more resources. Weird how the countries with resources and autonomy are doing better than those that haven’t had those things.

Also, these countries don’t exist in a vacuum. The US and Europe are still there competing with these countries for resources and influence.

Right, that reason being centuries of building gender roles that establish men as the people that do these things.

Yeah - That is what it is.

I was fortunate enough to be in advanced math courses my whole life. You just don't understand basic realities of life.

 

[mqt]

those dang cave women being taught by society that they shouldn't be the ones to go kill a bear!

That was the portion that men being biologically bigger and stronger influenced those roles. But we don’t need to go out killing bears any more, so maybe we could take a deeper look at gender roles now.

 

[thethe]

Not recently, because white men have seen to it that we either take their stuff, enslave their people or kill a bunch of them. It’s not genetic superiority, it’s the good fortune of white men being best at war at the right time in history. This isn’t even a demonization of white people as I’m sure the other racial groups would have done the same if they had won that particular lottery.

I’m sorry, I didn’t know you took advanced math courses. I hereby withdraw any and all arguments, advanced Math knower.

We don't need this anymore because men provide implicit security to women - If men stopped caring about these things society would collapse.

we have done that. the feminist movement has ensured women get married later, have fewer children, and pursue a corporate career or join the military because THEY CAN DO ANYTHING A MAN CAN DO!

sad side effect is that women are more miserable today than they've ever been

I'm just telling you I know a bit more than you about the makeup of a population that is high aptitude.

Its amusing you actually think the only reason women aren't high achievers in these fields is because MEN ARE SUPER BAD PEOPLE!

ITS ALL THE BAD MANS FAULT!

it's hard to overstate this... if men decided to collevtively protest and stop working... society would in fact collapse.

it's men who drill our oil. who dig electrical lines. who build buildings. who build cars. who manage our sewage and plumbing. who make the water flow. who grow our food. who protect the country and society.

society literally could not function without men doing what they do. and yes - I am implying that women could not under any circumstance fill the void

Fortunately for society, we are good people inherently (most of us).

The fun thing about nature vs. nurture is that it’s similar to the chicken or the egg: we can both look at the same data and both reinforce our views that something is either natural or due to environment.

Your whole worldview is based on the oppressor/oppressed construct. You don't look at data objectively in any way.

Yes.. basically everything we rely for basic survival is managed and operated by men... amd that's by necessity, not because of some dumb social norm engineering

I know we have. What I’m arguing is that this isn’t something we should change in favor of the old way of women being subservient to men.

if it's leading to less happy and well functioning women, why shouldn't we change?

 

[thethe]

It’s not subservience. It’s gratitude for the amazing world we built for everyone. This world couldn’t have been done without women functioning in their traditional roles.

Society is more complicated than that. I’d argue the causes are much different than changing gender roles.
