the whole reincarnation idea as presented by hindus is insane, because the ultimate realistic goal is just to be a brahmin, and once you get there it doesn't matter how you treat anyone because you're holy now. it's the concept of izzat, deified. fucking putrid.

To my mind the issue is that it provides a hierarchy and then judges you on your adherence to it. There may be some universal pre/proscriptions, but you also are judged based on how you perform the role and duties of your caste. Thus while a lower caste may revere the learning of a Brahmin, they are not to emulate it; rather they are to accurately fulfill their debased role in the hopes of being reincarnated as one. The slave's dreams of a better life are put off to the next; man's inclination towards self-improvement is entirely sublimated into the metaphysical, while the base reality is that nothing ever changes in a lineage no matter how many generations go by. It seems precisely designed to suck the enterprise out of a people.

Though there is some truth to a cynical view that things change little in a lineage regardless, still the dangers of a non-universal morality and code are made apparent in the Hindoo.

why do the LIBTARDS like jeets. is it really just because they're minorities? i know that's probably the reason but it can't be the ONLY reason. there has to be SOME logic to this. *sigh*

They're not white and nobody likes them. As far as libtards are concerned, that's enough to prove we need infinitely many in the country.

I’m sure that there’s some “Introduction to Brahmin Social Etiquette” course that they could take if need be.

It's almost impossible to pass if the rules are plentiful, varied, and rigid enough. Speaking from my own experience, I can look at an Israeli to see his kippa/yarmaluke and instantly know his politics. It goes further with ultra orthodox, I can tell you what sect someone belongs to based off the length of his coat, the type of hat he wears and his hair. With some sects I'm also able to tell if he's married or not despite Jews not wearing wedding rings because of the color of his socks.

I assume it's the same with Brahmin.

IQ matters far less than people think it does, someone with a 95 IQ who is living up to his potential beats a lazy 140 IQ person.

Soon after that election, Mr. Miller went to work for Representative John Shadegg of Arizona, and then quickly crossed the Capitol to work for Mr. Sessions. Perhaps the leading immigration foe in the Senate, Mr. Sessions was a product of a region where immigration had soared, largely in places unaccustomed to it. In two decades, the number of immigrants had grown fourfold in Alabama, Kentucky and South Carolina; fivefold in Arkansas, Georgia and Tennessee; and sixfold in North Carolina.
Mr. Miller had opposed immigration mostly on cultural grounds, warning that newcomers were failing to learn English and endangering public safety. But Mr. Sessions emphasized economic concerns and what he called “the real needs of working Americans,” saying foreigners threatened their jobs and wages.

Mr. Miller’s minor moment of Capitol Hill renown stems from his efforts to defeat the so-called Gang of Eight bill, a bipartisan attempt to pair new enforcement measures with legalization for most of the country’s 11 million undocumented immigrants, and to offer them a long path to citizenship.
He opposed the bill with the same zeal that had inspired high school parodies, haranguing reporters into the night and earning a gadfly reputation.
In retrospect, three elements of Mr. Miller’s approach foreshadowed his future exercise of power. One was his rejection of the view that Republicans needed to court minorities. The Gang of Eight bill was born after the 2012 presidential race, in which the defeated Republican, Mitt Romney, lost the Latino vote by 44 points.

Sessions has long been a critic of legalizing undocumented immigrants, and has pushed to curtail immigration to the United States, in part by constructing a wall along the southern U.S. border. In fact, he has spent his two-decade career in Congress working to thwart immigration reform bills from both the right and left, with Miller coming on as an adviser in 2009 to join that effort. When the so-called Gang of Eight introduced a bipartisan immigration reform bill in 2013, Sessions played a key role in killing it; when the bill passed the Senate, his aide Miller literally wrote the 23-page handbook that House members were given on how to fight the deal.

Listen, far be it from me to stop anyone from saying conservative politicians are full of shit but...

If you all are arguing about whether Miller was anti-immigration originally or just saying nice things now, we have his record before 2016 even including his high school letter to the editor against Spanish in 2002.

Links. I'm mobile if someone can archive for me please.

Some of the people Blondi is referencing were arrested in the feeding our future scam that's been an ongoing investigation for a few years now - so stuff started under Merrick Garland.

The left already hates Garland for not taking Trump totally out. If they find out he was against Somalians that'll just be more fuel to their anger.

No one has to do any "legwork" for you whatsoever, given you were the one who made a claim first, my niggy. Everything you've been given has been out of courtesy.

You wanna substantiate the whole "he will betray you" thing or is "W-well, he's a kike!" the extent of your argumentation skills? Because so far you've provided literally nothing and just handwaved everything people have given to the contrary.

Miller has been constant and consistent in his beliefs both privately and publically going all the way back to high school. Literally everyone who knew him corroborates this.

Ffs the guy called into the Larry Elder show over 70 times just to complain about how brown and liberal his school was.

Anyway, I cannot fathom how someone couldn't answer the breakfast Q, and it's legit mind boggling to me someone might not have an internal monolog. Like mofo, wtf, I had one at like toddler age. How could someone NOT fucking have one?

So it cuts both ways. There is a barrier on both sides of the communication divide and I gotta always work with it. Or avoid people. I mostly try that one first.

the most powerful ability in the modern age, is to be able to think like a idiotic person and to think like a sociopathic person, as those two types of people will be your roadblocks wherever you go.

as someone swimming in idiots due to my job and location, its a learned skill and will save your ass.
