OC that I put tons of time and effort into

Yeah, I talked about this a while back. It’s fucking painful, isn’t it. I maintain my belief that the site has died because we don’t ban lies. We can’t build or grow. If we must always be on guard against evil within our midst, we can only revert to the lowest common denominator of social interaction.

Of course, this is already well known. It’s scientifically proven. It’s the foundation of multiculturalism. A lavishly funded study of over 30,000 participants by Dr. Robert D. Putnam of Harvard University showed that racial diversity in a community corresponds to:

  • Less confidence in local government, leaders, and news
  • Less political efficacy/confidence
  • Less likelihood to vote
  • More protests and calls for social reform
  • Less expectation of cooperation in times of crisis
  • Less confidence in community cohesiveness
  • Fewer contributions to the community, monetary or social
  • Fewer close friends
  • Fewer charitable contributions
  • Less volunteering
  • Lower perceived happiness
  • Lower perceived quality of life
  • More time spent indoors, watching TV
  • More dependence on TV for entertainment
  • Lowered trust in the community
  • Lowered altruism
  • More ethnic-based cohesion
  • More interethnic violence

GEE, SOUNDS A LOT LIKE HERE, HUH.

Of course, the sort of utter shit, low level interaction seen on Voat (the multicultural hell hole of FREEZE PEACH) is also what we see daily when viewing social interaction within cities.

Before the 1960s, even the largest Western cities were still virtually racially homogenous–they were white. There were blackouts and similar temporary crises, such as natural disasters, but this did not result in anarchy because people held unified values and standards for social behavior. Humans are happiest in small towns and similar settings. In a small town, everyone knows each other. Everyone begins to think roughly the same. Everyone knows who is bad, and everyone knows who is good. If something goes wrong, everyone knows where to look to find who did it. Everyone knows how to deal with one other. This is not the case in big cities. In big cities, you can walk into a throng of people and recognize nobody. People react to everyone like strangers. Cities are a cancer.

In homogenous cities, neighborhoods develop organically. This is helped by sensible infrastructure planning, wherein the city starts to behave as a series of small towns which just happen to be so physically close they are adjacent. Most ‘townies,’ then, work ‘out of town’ at a major commercial center, which in turn is also superimposed geographically. The development of stable neighborhoods is hampered by overly systematic, communist/grid style layouts. In a homogenous city, everyone can still mostly know how to deal with anyone else. This is fully possible with strangers if–and only if–there is a mutual point of conformity, which allows people to adhere to similar standards. Even seemingly superficial and orthogonal standards–such as etiquette, manner of dress; even accent and language–help produce this cohesion. Of course, racial homogeny is the genetic–and therefore subconsciously psychological–cornerstone of all these behaviors. If you have racial homogeny in a region, it is often entirely capable of maintaining standards of etiquette without external, artificial law or restrictions. This is why the size of government grows as nations become less homogenous.

In contrast, places like New York City are infamous for a lack of conformity. NYC is now a “cosmopolitan” mix of all sorts of people. Take a 20 minute subway ride and you’ll meet all kinds of weirdos. There is an endless array of speech (from upper class white accents to incomprehensible ebonics to outright foreign languages), dress (half-naked people, hobos in rags, hipsters, Africans with their pants at their knees, goths, suited businessmen, grunge teenagers, etc.), behavior (people acting stiff but polite, drunks, high junkies, thugs, loud college bros, shrill teenage girl gangs, stuffy old jews, hipsters, performers cartwheeling in the streets, tourists of every variety) not to mention race, and so on. In a racially homogeneous city, you can meet a stranger and say, “Okay, I don’t know this person, but he looks like my neighbors, talks like my neighbors, and acts like my neighbors. I think I can find common ground with him, such as I do with my neighbors,” and it works. But in NYC, there are as many kinds of people as there are people. You can’t ever know what to expect.

Of course, an absolute monoculture is not necessary. Some subcultures are perfectly fine. Imagine a Swiss mountain village of 200 people. It’s perfectly homogenous–everyone looks the same, behaves the same, all families have lived there for generations. Let’s say that one day, this village is isolated by an avalanche. Will there be disorder and chaos? Of course not; looking at the people you wouldn’t know anything happened at all. Life will go on exactly as before. Now imagine that a group of 30 Japanese tourists happened to be in town when this happened. Obviously, they are strangers and are nothing like the locals–but will chaos ensue now? Again, no! And not just because of the nearly European behavior of the Japanese, compared to their neighboring Asian cultures. While the Japanese tourists are utterly foreign to the Swiss villagers, they within themselves have a common culture. The villagers can learn this. They can thereafter use this culture as a mental category to smoothly deal with all tourists, collectively. Order is maintained, despite the rift in culture.

In NYC, you cannot do this. There is an endless array of different “types” of people. It's like a zoo. Every time you meet someone, you have to make a new category in your head for them. You rarely meet someone who can be filed under your existing categories. When you inflate your list of mental categories beyond your mind’s capacity, you can only afford to learn the most basic social skills for interacting with each category. This is why New Yorkers are so socially primitive. When order reigns, the legally imposed standards of behavior act as a kind of “supercategory” that provides surrogate common ground to people. This is how the city can still function, as it does now, but the residents are alienated and do not feel intimacy or belonging. When crisis removes authority, this supercategory vanishes with it. All that remains is the extremely basic modes of interaction reminiscent of prehistoric cave people. Modern city life is unnatural. It’s the same way we breed cattle. I wonder ✡who✡ could be responsible for that, though…

For what little it’s worth, I upvoted your post and threw it in my saved links because I want to keep knowledge of ivermectin on hand going forward. You know, since we’re all going to be exterminated otherwise.

Thanks for the response and the info. That is actually really fascinating and makes perfect sense. I have a natural hatred of cities, and I have always thought it was irrational. Seems more likely it was my subconscious telling me shit was wrong.

And FWIW, I would like to apologize for my previous rudeness in the only interaction we had...probably over a year ago now. This place wears on me when I get into it too deeply, and I reacted poorly.

I would also like to point out that I am no COVID doomer (probably should have done so in my ivermectin post), but all the boomers are. And ivermectin is the panacea boomers need right now. COVID is no worse and no different from any other flu season, and all statistics back this up.

I am more interested in the cancer research, which is why I lead with it in my links after general info and safety. I will likely begin taking ivermectin annually just for the potential apoptosis and cytostasis effects on cancer.

Don’t worry. The same thing happens to me. Constantly.

Might even be a little bit less bad! It “cured” the flu, after all...

I am about halfway through reading your linked posts (which have links, and so on), and holy shit how did this post not garner more discussion? https://voat.co/v/politics/4068413

My post is trying to say the same thing as yours, while yours was much better thought out and planned. Mine was just "are you fucking kidding me? 2 goddamn people on this article about a potential life saving drug?"

You know what...I'm not a quitter in general. I am going to stick around this place and try to be the change I want to see. I will try to bring some fresh content as much as possible and I will watch the new stuff and help filter low effort bullshit and lies.

There is nothing left but an endless, perpetual now, in which nothing ever happens. Nothing that jews don’t want, at any rate.

Well said man.
