If you ask me, The human race as a whole is meaningless until they give men and boys the exact same scope of entitlements as their female counterparts. This includes holding each woman accountable to her behavior and to the same moral standard as each of her male counterparts.

If intelligence is smarter than no intelligence, and humans have intelligence while the universe has none, then humans should be smarter than this meaningless universe, and be able to do whatever they want with it immediately - and yet nothing could be further from the truth. Of course, none of this tells us which God is the real one - and it can only be - but that's enough logic from me for today

Inherent or objective meaning (or value) is necessarily impossible. To have meaning (or value) is necessarily to have meaning (or value) to someone, typically for some purpose or in pursuit of some end. Free--floating meaning, meaning detached from a person (which is a prerequisite for inherent of objective meaning) would require that a thing have the same meaning to all beings at all times, in all places and under all circumstances. A human life has meaning, has value to a person because we are people. It has a different value to a bear. Just as it has a different value to a sand flea, a mouse or a trout. Some beings place absolutely no value or meaning on human life. These is no reason why they should. Nor does their failure to value human life alter my determination of the value of human life TO ME. Those who claim that a thing has objective value or meaning often ground that claim by appealing to a deity. They assert that life, the universe and everything has value, has meaning because it has value and meaning to God. But this is just goalpost shifting. These things still only have value or meaning because they have value of meaning TO SOMEONE. Who that someone is does not matter. That meaning or value remains subjective to that someone. It is not binding on me to share that evaluation. "You are the universe experiencing itself." No, I am not. I am not "the universe". That statement is facile (and exposes the hubris of the author). What is true of one member of a set is not necessarily true of the entire set. I am a conscious, self-aware mortal entity composed of matter and energy. It does not therefor follow that the universe (of which I am a part) is a conscious self-aware mortal entity composed of matter and energy. It is just composed of matter and energy. Being composed of matter and energy is the sole criterion for membership in the set of all things that we call the universe. How is anyone impressed by this sophistry?

I don't think you understood the essay. Read the article on consciousness, I'll put the links in the description. Check out Roger Penrose's theory of consciousness. You say everything is just "matter and energy" as if that settles the question when matter and energy are themselves poorly understood and at best modelled in part by scientific theory. They are mystical terms. Read a physicists view of what is matter, I've posted links in previous videos, and you'll find that top physicist will answer "we don't really know." And yes you are the universe, not the entire universe obviously. If there's sophistry at play, it's in your comment.

That's the nihilist perspective: "nothing lasts forever so everything is pointless." Sex lasts 15 minutes, is that pointless too? Bread only lasts a few days, why bother with it? Why do you assume that something needs to last forever in order to be meaningful? What does "forever" mean when time itself is not understood?

@@StudioBrule Hey Steve, you understand what I meant by it's all pointless at the end if it's all going to end. I dont look at the little things in our lives but at the whole picture and the grand scheme of things. Life IS pointless and meaningless even from a religious perspective. Where are all the great empires of the past ? And like it's been said, if you ever have doubts about the meaninglessness of life, take a walk among the ruins of past empires, or I would say graves. Sure, we like the little joys of life as we are designed to but again I look past that and focus on where it all ends.

There's also the fact that it's near impossible to get any poetry recognized or published that isn't the theme of: "I'm an insert identity here, look at how victimised I am!" %90 of the people trading on this are women or male feminists, and woe betide you if you have any poetry which isn't! validating the victim identity narrative. At a poetry reading, where people were showing their work to the poet Henry Normal, I honestly had three different women all tell me to take my stuff and leave, and that I was threatening the "narrative of liberation", by daring to write on things that were, mmm, different! Then again, the publishing industry is so female dominated at the moment, its impossible to get anything published, even with a doctorate.

Academia is a female-dominated industry. That's it's primary influence. Which is the primary force behind woke. It's women. Until the West is ready to acknowledge this, nothing gets solved. It is not minorities. It is not non-cis, non-straight people. It is women. The rest are a drop in the bucket. Look at the nursing industry. The industry is so incredibly dysfunctional, that it has a second industry, that's responsible for keeping it functional: 'traveling nurses'. These nurses are set to ONLY be temporary. They are paid far more. This is one of the only - if not only - industries where this exists. Oh, wait. Substitute teachers. What a coincidence. Why does it exist? Because nurses are so unreliable. The entire system is built around this constant. The proof is mountainous. We just need to accept it, and work with it. Like ALL our ancestors did.

Old poetic advice for the censorious female: “If thou dost marry, I’ll give thee this plague for thy dowry. Be thou as chaste as ice, as pure as snow, thou shalt not escape calumny. Get thee to a nunnery, go. Farewell. Or, if thou wilt needs marry, marry a fool, for wise men know well enough what monsters you make of them. To a nunnery, go, and quickly too. Farewell.” Willy Shakespeare, a poet currently cancelled as cancelled can be.

My name is Alien. Big Alien! Big Bad Alien!! Alien 7040 billion C. **Smartphone** If your phone's temperature is above 44° C, it's too hot. There are approximately 6.84 billion smartphones in the world. **Computers** 70° to 85°C (158°F to 185°F): This is the normal CPU temperature range for gamers or systems running intense programs. In 2019, there were over 2 billion computers in the world, including servers, desktops, and laptops. **Airplane** According to the latest estimates, there are approximately 100,000 flights per day. This number includes all types of flights, including passenger, cargo, and military aircraft. Passenger flights alone account for over 90,000 flights per day, transporting millions of passengers to destinations all around the world. Inside the typical commercial jet engine, the fuel burns in the combustion chamber at up to 2000 degrees Celsius. **Nuclear power plant** Nuclear energy now provides about 9% of the world's electricity from about 440 power reactors. High-temperature nuclear heat applications can be subdivided into two fundamentally different techniques - the use of steam up to temperatures of 540°C, and the direct use of the heat transferred through a heat-exchanger at up to temperatures of 950°C. Nuclear plants release 2 MWh heat per MWh electricity produced. The heat of vaporization of water at 100 °C is 2,23e+6 joules per kg. So 2 MWh or 2 * 3,6e+9 joules can vaporize 7,2e+9 / 2,23e+6 kg = 3,2 tons of water. **An overhead power line** An overhead power line is a structure used in electric power transmission and distribution to transmit electrical energy along large distances. It consists of one or more conductors (commonly multiples of three) suspended by towers or poles. Since the surrounding air provides good cooling, insulation along long passages and allows optical inspection, overhead power lines are generally the lowest-cost method of power transmission for large quantities of electric energy. The American power grid is sometimes called “the world's largest machine,” with its more than 500,000 miles of high-voltage transmission lines, 5 million miles of distribution lines, and thousands of power plants The total length of transmission circuits worldwide is estimated at 4.7 million kilometres, and the length of distribution grids between 88 and 104 million km. Overhead lines are typically operated at temperatures of 80degC (depending on conductor material, conductor sag and ambient conditions). In certain conditions temporary overload up to approximately 100degC is allowed. **Car** To put it simply, nobody has an exact car count for the entire globe, but a fair estimate can be made using data from automotive industry research firm Hedges & Company. The number of cars in the world is estimated to be around 1.47 billion vehicles. For most of the modern car, the normal operating engine temperature is in the range of 75 to 105 degrees Celsius. **Train** The National Rail network of 10,072 route miles (16,116 km) in Great Britain and 189 route miles (303 route km) in Northern Ireland carries over 18,000 passenger and 1,000 freight trains daily. Indian railway runs 13,169 passenger trains daily, on both long-distance and suburban routes, covering 7,325 stations across India. Mail or Express trains, the most common types of trains, run at an average speed of 50.6 km/h. At 120 degrees F, the locomotive may be placed under load and used in light engine, light use. At 140 degrees F, the locomotive has reached the lower limit of "normal operating temperature range" which for most of our locos ends at 180 degrees (140-180 F). At this point the loco may be used for normal use. **Air conditioner** An air conditioner provides cold air inside your home or enclosed space by actually removing heat and humidity from the indoor air. It returns the cooled air to the indoor space, and transfers the unwanted heat and humidity outside. Roughly 2 billion air conditioning units are now in operation around the world, making space cooling one of the leading drivers of rising electricity demand in buildings and of generation capacity additions to meet peak power demand. Residential units in operation account for nearly 70% of the total. Air conditioners work on three power factors; Real Power, Apparent Power and Reactive Power. Real Power is the instant product of voltage and current, Apparent Power is the average power of current and voltage. Reactive Power is the power consumed in an air conditioning unit that does not perform any useful work. Usually, the work is the useful part of this energy transfer, while heat is the nasty by-product - for example, in a lighting fixture. The useful work is that electric energy is converted into light energy.

I want to get to the root of the ideas of femenism, because I suspect that they are not about what they claim it is about - even the anti slavery notions... I appreciate videos like this, where I can source the founders of the movement and read their material, to see what they wrote, and understand their true beliefs... I infer that they will all share as a core belief, the quote given in this video by 'Nellie McClung': 12:57 "The whole race is suffering from masculinity and men and women are alike to blame for tolerating it..." I have seen other founders denounce men, as such, but in particular, they denounce men's aggressive side - but particularly their sexual side - as solely and exclusively about raw domination: like Sauron level domination... This idea is utterly laughable, however, I perceive the echo of this idea extended throughout every level of society, in the west, Aus, America, UK, etc... It is an absolutely laughable idea, because not every man has committed to obcene levels of crime... Not every man has the psychological profile which would make this level of raw domination likely... Men actively form a battle line against other men and women who set out to achieve these aims... The ideas need to be rooted out and purged... Because they are anti truth... But the other side to the coin, in terms of women's desires... The book called 'a billion wicked thoughts' reveals that women desire - actively seek it out as a form of erotica content - the very thing they are denouncing as evil in men... Women desire men's aggressive side... And we found out this information in a secular society where women are given the freedom and liberty to exercise their free choice, and to consume any material they want... EroRom... Things are not what they seem... Keep digging men and women...
