So we have determined that most humans will not work unless they have to

Also evolution ceases without some sort of social darwinism.

And power corrupts.

communism ignores each one of these completely or almost entirely. Yet aeros, mavl, mountme, etc still support it. And million of other retards. Wow.

Source?

Social pressures aren't the only thing that causes evolution, environmental stresses also trigger natural selection.

but thats the not the same thats a communist belief. I do science and stuff, I do clouds I know what im saying because clouds are science, so im a scientist and not like the uneducated peons I hate.

Next up, how to tell the difference between a cirrus cloud and a cumulus cloud. That sounded so scientific, im so cool.

wow hellfire. You don't know what darwinism even means. Gee, he's only like the 4th most important scientist ever. hellfire = fail.


and then oddfish the fucking retard wants to take the power that is distributed over many companies and put it all in the hands of one goverment.

You're using it pretty loosely and in a pretty unscientific manner. Social darwinism is not the only means of evolution you fucking idiot.

I reject as not in evidence your notion that most humans will not work unless they have to.

survival of the fittest is pretty much the only mechanism of evolution. And survival of the fittest is pretty much the same as darwinism.

saiko, you are smarter than that. most humans will not work, especially not the required lower class jobs that suck.

Sure, some of us would take science "jobs" or porn jobs just to avoid boredom, but most required work would not be done and you know it.

one of the many, many extremely obvious evidences against sams idiotic view of the world through a straw is that inheritance of money and power, the cornerstone of royalty and the inbred elite for centuries completely throws natural evolution out the window. one doesnt even have to argue further than that, sams pov is dead already.

"survival of the fittest is pretty much the only mechanism of evolution."

Fittest is a pretty fluid concept as it depends on what stresses are being placed on a species. What may be advantageous at one point in time isn't necessarily optimal at another.

Next SA is going to be arguing for Eugenics.

the funny thing is, and this fits exactly in with sams bizzaro opposite world, is that HE is so fucking retarded he thinks that feudalism is capitalism.

"Next SA is going to be arguing for Eugenics. "

Hes been arguing this for years. He just avoids that particular epithet because its not PC.

true, which makes flexibility the most prized advantage. Intelligence=flexibility. Omnivores=flexibility. No surprise then that the planets dominant species is an intelligent omnivore.

and yes, Eugenics to some degree would be a good idea. You can't force law abiding citizens to now have babies, but you can certainly discourage overbreeding amongst the lower classes(which the world is stupidly not doing).

How much offspring have you got, Sammy? You do realize that if the answer is 0, this means you are as evolutionary unfit as can be?

But from the point of view of darwinism, it is. Which is it you think is more important, darwinism or civilized society?

Because you were arguing the former over the latter before.

Also an obviously flawed assumption btw. The vast majority of people will work if there's enough benefit to it. Mere survival doesn't satisfy most people.

"So we have determined that most humans will not work unless they have to"

Wrong. A person will work if they feel the value gained from working is greater than the value lost if they were not working. It would be an incredibly sad world if the only value in work was the income. No, the right idea is to find a job you enjoy.

"Also evolution ceases without some sort of social darwinism."

"Social Darwinism" has nothing to do with evolution at any level. It is also simply wrong.

"And power corrupts."

Power tends to corrupt. And money is power, so money tends to corrupt. Getting rid of money would get rid of one tendency towards corruption.

In a communism, no one has power over anyone else anyway, so I'm not sure where you're going with that.

Or, more precisely, find something you enjoy, then find a way to get paid to do it.

"The vast majority of people that don't work in the modern era are on the nanny state welfare teet.

I know this to be true for a limited period per person, unless said person is incapable of work. The people who don't need to work are in that position because, through merit, inheritance, or most often luck, they are independently wealthy. And yet we very often see these people work.

Similarly in countries where welfare is a lot more developed than in the US, and people can choose not to work for years on end, we observe that this option is only used for sensible reasons, such as child rearing, taking care of family or oneself, or to better oneself. And after a while people still get jobs. Whether they choose to do so because of a primal need to contribute or because they can enjoy a higher lifestyle if they do is psychologically interesting but irrelevant to your assertion that they wouldn't do it at all.

1. How willing one is to work depends solely on one's education and what information he receives from childhood to adulthood.

2. You are applying your own judgement to concepts you know nothing about.

3. This thread is stupid.

"So we have determined that most humans will not work unless they have to"

Incorrect bigotry.

"Also evolution ceases without some sort of social darwinism."

Laughably incorrect bigotry

"And power corrupts."

e.g. wealth, which equals power, sams holy grail.

Wow, this OP should be added to the hotrod list of retardation

Evolution does not matter from your perspective sammy.

Mankind as a biological species will be extinct within 500 years by your reckoning.

Which is probably a given if we all start to reckon like you.
