Approximately 60 million die each year, come what may.To be replaced by approximately 140 million.I'm not sure if that is civilised or not.More of an inbuilt necessity.
The earth supports a human population of nearly 8 billion people. The highest number since creation. This would not be possible if mutual respect and civilization didn’t exist.

Feel free to parse her quotes down for us..."The more we can elevate black women, that’s going to be a beautiful thing.”"I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege."To me, it's as clear as daylight. Whites are patronizingly superior due to skin color and in the unique position to elevate people who are inferior due to their skin color.
So white privilege does exist.

Everyone does seem to know my name and insist on making small talk with me. I feel like a celebrity. Why do all these people seem intimately familiar with me?
Because you are unable to hide from public scrutiny.

You said critical thinking makes you an atheist.The use of critical thinking is what made me an atheist, yes.Not sure if that was intended to make a further point.
So it is not based on facts or evidence that made you an atheist according to your confession.

1. India deported 15% of its British residents (white people). This applies to the next 2 items in the list.
You are wrong. It is UK that is deporting Indian workers.
Health and care visa applications dropped by a massive 76%. This comes even as many Indian workers are facing deportation from the UK.

What are you talking about? Are you even reading what I'm typing?
You said critical thinking makes you an atheist.
The reason I can't tell you no god exists is because there is no possible way for me to rule out every possibility, I just don't have the kind of access I would need to make that assessment.So at the end of the day what makes me an atheist is that I believe in critical thinking, which when used properly doesn't permit faith as a basis for anything. Critical thinking however, is not as religion.

All of the evidence says there is one Universe, but that is a vast conspiracy designed to hide the truth, science is obviously a cover-up.The multiverse is the real truth that the Deep State of the Universe doesn't want you to know.
Does the multiverse exist in the Bible?
The Bible doesn't teach that there is an alternate creation outside of God's created universe. Just as there is only one God, there is only one universe. God created people to be stewards of his creation.Jan 3, 2021

Still don’t understand why people hate Jews though just because some of them are pretty pesky.
The Jews have 613 mitzvot (commandments). But there is no commandment in Judaism that teaches Jews to be likeable. With 3000 years of persecution, expulsion and antisemitism, one would think a commandment to be 'likeable' might have help Jews overcome the burden of 613 commandments that still left them undeserving of proper recognition throughout their history.

What is "white" privilege?
White privilege denotes both obvious and less obvious passive advantages that white people may not recognize they have, which distinguishes it from overt bias or prejudice. These include cultural affirmations of one's own worth; presumed greater social status; and freedom to move, buy, work, play, and speak freely.

Tell us about how God showed his backside to Jews.
After the Jews made the covenant of circumcision with God, Moses asked God to show them his dick.
Exodus 33:18
18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”
But God replied no one can see my front or they will die.
Exodus 33:20 20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my front, for no one may see it and live.”
Then God showed the Jews his backside instead.
Exodus 33:23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my backside; but my front must not be seen.”
This is why the Jews did not recognize Jesus as God because they could not compare their backsides.
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

Something about people claiming to see drones,Something something rumors of Iranian Mothership,Government not giving clear answers on identity of the drones.Nothing that makes me think aliens or foreign spies.It's just a bunch of rumors so far.Lot of possibilities.
The U.S. military has a harder problem identifying drones than they do sighting balloons. Balloons have a consistent shape they are basically round.

America led the world in Covid related deaths at 1.3 million.Cause they are fat asses. Now read the article and it's data which is relevant not irrelevant shit like higher mortality rates due to Americans being fat fucks. You want to look at numbers relevant to healthcare not muddy the data with statistics about Americans choosing to be fat fucks.
Obesity is a health problem in America.
The latest estimates are that approximately 34% of adults and 15–20% of children and adolescents in the U.S. are obese. Obesity affects every segment of the U.S. population. Obesity increases the risk of many chronic diseases in children and adults.

The reason to bring it up is to pool resources. If we know a certain group is a disproportionate part of the problem we can target resources towards them. So if we know rap music is appealing to the worst instincts of black youth, and we can see that Jews are running the music industry, if we ban jews from the music industry than perhaps what will fill the vacuum is people who want to use music to raise up the morality of black youth as an examllebrilliant. And I therefore cannot get a job for which I might be eminently qualified because you see the stereotype and not me.
Just try to be more likeable.

I like to hide. Jeans, t shirt and a baseball cap is not my preferred style, but it does allow me to blend in .I usually keep my head shaved because it is the most common haircut and allows me to blend in, in situations I can't wear a hat.When it is less than 60° outside I always wear a hoodie. Usually Grey or black and pulled low over my face.There are no logos on my clothes and typically the shirts are black.I typically keep to myself and yet somehow my reputation precedes me. Everyone knows my name. They like me. I don't typically like them, though I am kind.I don't make small talk and try to avoid people who do. I sometimes act aggressive towards those who do make small talk because they have pierced the veil I am trying to keep between me and the world.I never take my headphones off because It helps me create distance. I enjoy coffee shops in book stores because it us one of the few places where people will not attempt to talk to you.Usually I avoid people but the exception is really large crowds. I enjoyed Vegas for example because I was alway in a crowd and nobody noticed me.The only person I don't avoid is my son. I do try to avoid my wife. She knows what she signed up for.In case you are wondering, I find it rude if I feel or hear your presence. Can I hear you talking on the phone over my headphones?Are you not loud but boisterous in public?Do you try to stand out in any way?If yes to any of those than go fuck yourself.Why do I hide myself?I don't know. I don't know that I care that much. I don't consider it a flaw. I consider it a moral failing if anyone else does not hide, though.
You hide to escape embarrassing moments.
Yes.

If you are not claiming causation the the correlation is meaningless. In fact, I suspect that I could find a larger correlation to another group. If it isn't causation and correlation is useless then why use it as an identifier?
Causation is written all over the Wylted reasoning. He states by just expelling them all the problems go away.
Wylted wrote:
Whether it is their religion as a factor or genetics or millions of factors, why would the causation matter. The reality is that if you want your country to do well the best thing any western society can do is expel the Jews who push for open borders, cutting the dicks off 7 year Olds and all other forms of leftism and degeneracy such as porn and rap music which polluted the mind of the youth.
I don't know what causes them to be behind so many things ruining society. I don't care if it is a strong minority of them, the truth is that if you just expel them all then the problems go away.

I will say Jews in business are stingy but on average they donate more to charity than the general population, even low income Jews donate disproportionately. I would like to know what charities they donate to and maybe I would take it back. So if they are donating to causes that harm western society than perhaps it is inherit evil and not generosity at play. On the surface level they appear charitable.I will say I have seen more try to get free shit than the general public in some places. When I was 16 and worked at Safeway. There was this free sample policy to allow a free sample of literally everything and some of the Jews would take that policy way too far. I finally stopped letting them sample. Other races would just sample a few items they never tried but the jews would do it to like 15 items and then also be the first to bitch about the prices, which have to be inflated so much because they over sampled. So if they sampled oreos for example. They get an oreo but than the rest of the package would need to be thrown in the trash. Once I stopped letting jews sample. Prices droped
Is that your experience why Jews are disliked?

Land owned by the Palestinians before the Jews made it their homeland after the Holocaust in Europe.
4. 1947 – Proposed UN Partition Plan
Following the end of WWII, the newly formed United Nations proposed a plan that would grant 55 percent of historic Palestine to a Jewish state and 45 percent to a non-contiguous Arab one. Jerusalem would remain under international control.
Palestinians rejected the proposal because it stripped away much of the land that was under their control. At the time, they owned 94 percent of historic Palestine and comprised 67 percent of the population. This plan was never implemented on the ground.

Have you made ntioned to the Muslims in Israel's government? Or would you rather just take a top post about Judaism and show the intellectual laziness of conflating it with Israel?
The Israeli Parliament has 120 seats. The current Parliament has 17 non—Jewish representatives, out of which 11 are Muslim, 4 are Druze and 2 are Christian’s Arabs. In the previous parliament there were 12 non-Jewish representatives , 9 of which were Muslims , 2 Druze and 1 Arab Christian.
At the end of 2023, the Moslem population of Israel was estimated at 1.782 million (18.1% of all residents) – an increase of 35,000 compared with the end of 2022. The annual growth rate of the Moslem population in 2023 was 2.0% (2.2% in 2022). The US government estimates the total Palestinian population at 3 million in the West Bank and 2 million in the Gaza Strip (midyear 2022).

A stereotype is a local truth applied to a larger group predictively. It is a lazy shorthand which is often wrong. Group trait assumptions are generally wrong.
Jews stereotyping should have ended with the Holocaust. But when the Jewish group trait not to be likeable continued. The antisemitism continued. Even Jesus was disliked as a Jew and crucified.

So would you suggest that I, because I am a Jew, am stingy? If not, then it isn't a proper stereotype of Jews, just a biased judgment of some people who happen to be Jewish.
Confiscating and Annexing Palestinian land is going beyond stingy. It is criminal. Now top that with the genocide of the Palestinian people. And you have a modern reason why Jews are disliked. 3000 years of antisemitism has not taught the Jews to be likeable. It is not a part of their religion Judaism to be likeable. As you sow so shall you reap.

The biggest or "real" reason why the Germans hated the Jews began in World War 1. During the war, German citizens bought war bonds. However, the Jews bought gold instead. After the war, the German economy collapsed and the only thing to trade that was worth value was gold. The Jews didn't support the war effort, and after the economy collapsed they purchased up all the businesses dirt cheap. This enraged so many Germans, that the Nazi movement gained support, so many people supported seizing the wealth of the Jews, because they felt it was swindled from them. The "war machine" put Germans back to work, and as their military research and arsenal grew, so did Nazi rhetoric and Germans felt emboldened to "punish the Jews" and things snowballed from there.
Goes back to the original premise Jews were never taught to be likeable.

I literally already pointed out the problems but here is the raw numbers broken down showing the inferiority of socialized medicine.
America led the world in Covid related deaths at 1.3 million.
US spends most on health care but has worst health outcomes among high-income countries, new report finds
The United States spends more on health care than any other high-income country but still has the lowest life expectancy at birth and the highest rate of people with multiple chronic diseases, according to a new report from The Commonwealth Fund, an independent research group.
US healthcare covid file
New poll shows jump in adults who rate the quality of US health care as 'poor'
The report, released Tuesday, also says that compared with peer nations, the US has the highest rates of deaths from avoidable or treatable causes and the highest maternal and infant death rates.
“Americans are living shorter, less healthy lives because our health system is not working as well as it could be,” the report’s lead author, Munira Gunja, senior researcher for The Commonwealth Fund’s International Program in Health Policy and Practice Innovation, said in a news release. “To catch up with other high-income countries, the administration and Congress would have to expand access to health care, act aggressively to control costs, and invest in health equity and social services we know can lead to a healthier population.”
US comes in last in health care rankings of high-income countries
People in the US see doctors less often than those in most other countries, which is probably related to the US having a below-average number of practicing physicians, according to the report, and the US is the only country among those studied that doesn’t have universal health coverage. In 2021 alone, 8.6% of the US population was uninsured.
“Not only is the U.S. the only country we studied that does not have universal health coverage, but its health system can seem designed to discourage people from using services,” researchers at the Commonwealth Fund, headquartered in New York, wrote in the report. “Affordability remains the top reason why some Americans do not sign up for health coverage, while high out-of-pocket costs lead nearly half of working-age adults to skip or delay getting needed care.”

Why drugs are addictive?
Physical addiction appears to occur when repeated use of a drug changes the way your brain feels pleasure. The addicting drug causes physical changes to some nerve cells (neurons) in your brain. Neurons use chemicals called neurotransmitters to communicate. These changes can remain long after you stop using the drug.

By the same token, we can say that protestantism and judaism were important for the birth and development of capitalism and that's been pretty good for the world but religions are not perfect. These religions have a dark side as I said it in another thread. So, what you said is somewhat coherent but I need to check it more carefully. It would be helpful if you give your source.
Religion is anti capitalism.

I’ll steelman you and say you’re talking about the Abrahamic god that’s been around for about 4000 years. Whilst modern humans have been around for about 300,000 years. Unless you’re a Young Earth Creationist. There’s been many other religions alongside/older than the Abrahamic faith with large numbers of followers. No, God is not universal. There’s documented tribes that are/were close to isolated who fell under atheistic (lack belief in gods).Though i’ll hand it to the Abrahamic faith that they have some good human stories. Even though many of them are copies from other philosophies/religions.
Every religion has God as its central figure.God is universal in all religions.
