    All the “high T alpha males” I’ve ever met are also the least critical thinkers I’ve ever met.

        Yeah I tend to think that anyone who identifies as high t alpha male is actually just the opposite.

        They are usually the ones seeking admiration and approval. Meanwhile the free thinkers are just doing our days and caring for our tribes. No approval needed.

      I’m a high T male, which is why I started balding at 20 and my balls are the size of grapes

        Balding is not related to testosterone, but rather Dihydrogentestosterone (commonly referred to as DHT). Although high testosterone levels often mean high DHT levels as well, it is possible to have high DHT whilst still having low testosterone levels.

        The amount of androgen receptors in your scalp is also relevant, some people are just unlucky and have lots of androgen receptors in that area and start balding at a young age despite average DHT levels

    “Pele who can’t defend themselves physically”

    Like Elon, who pulled out of a fight he tried to start with Zuck because he’d get his ass kicked?

      I’m still hoping this happens and leads to a WWE style outcome.

      Elon has a heart attack on the ring and falls on top of Zuck pinning and smothering him. Zuck is forced to tap and Elon is stretchered out the ring

      He retweeted it from a page. Be noted those are both very right wing and very gatekeepy about autism (if they’re really autistic and not just some weirdo claiming to be such).

      A government of autists would come up with optimized solutions to many problems. The issue is that most people are resistant to actually fixing things, so everyone would just get mad.

    The post is starting out with the wrong assumptions so naturally it’s conclusions are wrong, top tier shitpost.

    In the old days we’d use this kind of pseudoscience for mischief (you know, trolling), now it’s disinformation spread by useful idiots to upend their democracies.

    Ironic that only a source of “trust me bro, this is how the NPCs work” is all that’s needed for Musk to be like: “Derp my filter says it’s true! This must be true because it’s on 4chan, no sources or further thoughts needed…”

    “Well, back to my compound, security guards, and lobbyists that protect me from the majority!”

        It largely depends on what lense you parse your logic through, if its the lense of accumulating wealth and power you will almost always reach the same conclusion, the same if you use dialectical Materialism you will almost always reach yhe same conclusion. In the first instance you wont be able to understand how others can’t see the truths that are burning into your retinas, while in the latter truth you will understand exactly why they avoid the rubric of logic which brings makes their lifestyle unable to accept they are everythig wrong with the world and dragging us int a greenhouse heat death in the pursuit of profit.

          the same if you use dialectical Materialism you will almost always reach yhe same conclusion

          Material and historical conditions vary widely. Dialectical Materialism exists to synthesize solutions to a variety of contradictions. Stalin, Mao, and Tito reached some very different conclusions, despite growing up during the same international conflagration. Subsequent leftist revolutionaries - from Che to Chavez, had their own takes on the best path forward. A lot of leftist infighting can be attributed to these differences in baseline material condition.

          A relatively wealthy leftist living in the imperial core is going to have this sense of living in a post-scarcity world with a relatively liberal social order, while a Philippian labor organizer is going to be struggling just to survive while the state’s brutal police forces actively hunt them. Chinese communists and Vietnamese communists have a very acrimonious history together and are easily pitted against one another by European industrialists. And coalition building between northern Indian communist farmers and the Kashmiri neighbors who they are in economic competition with is extremely difficult.

          While you can always talk about the straight hyper-moral correct positions, they don’t always lend themselves to the physical labor involved in building local movements or the historical biases native to your region.

          One big take away of dialectical materialism is that outcomes aren’t clear and conclusions aren’t certain. You always need to try things, anticipate failure, and move forward from there. You can’t trap yourself in rigid ideology or you’ll find that ideology used against you as soon as capitalist leadership can adopt that rhetoric.

      Or if they’re like a few people I know…whose critical thinking skills are “parrot opinions from someone who I think is almost as smart as me (according to me) because I exclusively listen to them”

    I’m yet another Autistic person chiming in here to say that Elon is an ass clown

    I’ve met plenty of neurotypicals who defied group think, so this isn’t even close to right

    You folks know what’s up though, you don’t need me to tell you anything here. Love you guys, sorry we have a jackass amongst our population, you know how it is

    Yeah, this is a really weird flex. They’re taking work from the author of The Mass Psychology of Fascism, which in a general sense can be used to compare Nazism to the current MAGA movement, but saying that those susceptible to it are… Beta males?

    If these mental gymnastics were any more complex they would have won gold in France last week.
