Lawrence Krauss and his retarded socialist ideas

Anyone listen to the Joe Rogan podcast with Lawrence Krauss? It was extremely annoying for me. These are some of the things that bugged me. I didn't listen to the end.

>constant bashing of trump
>So scared to be xenophobic that he asks joe rogan if hes xenophobic because he has qualms accepting that our ancestors might be AI that exterminates us.
>Cries about how backwards we are that we cant accept socialized healthcare and alludes to how technology will force us to have a communist salary for all.
>Pompous attitude about religion and how he can't understand why people have faith.
>throws in some punches about Republicans not believing in evolution, and not accepting gays.

The attitude about religion bugged me. He said instead of going to church we should have other activities to bring people together like a rock concert or a physics lecture. I'm not religious but it annoys me that he can't understand that not all people are smart as him or logical thinkers. People also need an ideology to follow. I believe it is human nature to live your life according to an ideology. He is replacing religion with science, atheism, liberalism, and socialism while not realizing that below average thinkers cannot do that as easily. Without an ideology people become more and more degenerate (unless your ideology is Islam in which case you are already degenerate).

As smart as the guy is, his insane liberal ideology is so fucking disappointing. Talk about cognitive dissonance, from a scientist no less.

Discuss.

agreed. it blows my mind that so many leaders of science are incapable of being critical of dems. I esp. hated his healthcare jabs. i agree ryancare is ass, but its hypocritical to think ryancare is ass and obamacare isnt.

>constant bashing of trump
Clowns are funny
>backwards we are that we cant accept socialized healthcare
Ahhh thank you Attlee/Bevan for the NHS
Please continue trusting private health insurance corporations so you will all die of ignorance and corpulence.
>Pompous attitude about religion and how he can't understand why people have faith.
KEK. Do you still believe in Santa too, child?
>throws in some punches about Republicans not believing in evolution, and not accepting gays.
BWAHAHAHA

The majority of republicans believe in evolution and rights for gays.

British have the worst teeth in the west and your healthcare isn't great.

I personally don't believe in god and many people don't, I'm just saying that most of the world has an IQ less than 100 and can't easily replace religion with a beneficial ideology.

Faggot

>British have the worst teeth in the west and your healthcare isn't great.

Literally THAT meme

Is he a Jew?

he's the type of guy hitler talked about

>Gee I wonder why all these smart scientists turn into retarded socialists when talking politics?

Follow da money

Lawrence Krauss is a typical Kike. Besides the points you make he also subscribes to the religion of mathematical physics which is about as believable as anything in the Hebrew bible.

If you want to redpill yourself on physics (reject Jewish mathematical physics) take a look at youstupidrelativist.com/Eng.html

Haha that cartoon is sweet. Agree.

His cognitive dissonance is startling. I would like to hear his views on Clinton. Sam Harris loves Hillary which also pisses me off. These people are geniuses but they can't grasp the way trump works.

Also I noticed that Joe Rogan kept trying to get the conversation away from xenophobia, homophobia, trump, etc because although hes not completely red pilled he sees through liberals shit. Krauss wanted to jump on the anti-trump train so hard so he could bluepill millions of listeners.

>it blows my mind that so many leaders of science are incapable of being critical of dems

It shouldn't. There are many intelligent people out there who could be prominent academics. At that level of academy; however, it becomes a rigid political sieve where any and all dissent from the narrative is a career death sentence.

They've been screening like this for several generations so it should come as no surprise that anyone who is a top academic is very likely to be a progressive.

He's a genius. Too bad he'll never be Feynman. I absolutely support his views about retarded concepts like religion too. Shame Sup Forums is disgusted by free thinking.

None of his thoughts are originsl

Too much IQ in abstraction, but too little self awareness. They spent up so much time in their internal world, they've forgotten how they real one works, at least when it comes to social interaction and what motivates people.


Must be way most High IQ peeps are leftist.

His arrogant views on religion dont help anyone. Educated people are capable of free thinking and realize that religion isn't necessary to live a good life. Uneducated people, which is like 75% of India depend on religion so much that they have to stop trains while stinky shit-laden cattle block the tracks because its illegal to kill them.

>None of his thoughts are originsl
That's why he'll never be Feynman.

But i love the way he teaches the common man to develop and retain scientific temper amidst the harsh reality of Islam and other horrifying religions. He's not harming anyone with his politics as well. Let him live. His book on Star Wars was brilliant. The world needs dissenters like him i feel.

I wouldn't say most high IQ people are leftists. I would bet that a good amount of high IQ people are to the right of center. I would agree with the other poster that most high IQ people in academia are leftists due to the academic culture.

agree

STRAUSS IS A FUCKING KIKE DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS CHRIST KILLER

I'm pretty sure Washington had bad teeth in 1775, when he was still British.

>He said instead of going to church we should have other activities to bring people together like a rock concert or a physics lecture

he obviously hasn't given it much thought.

Hospitals should replace churches as the central organizations of life. People should volunteer their time and money to make sure hospital care remains as affordable as possible. I don't mean socialist healthcare, I mean within a free market framework.

>As smart as the guy is, his insane
Those are no bugs but features. If a minority claims to rule over all the rest not being objectively tremenduously more intelligent than the rest, the only way to do so is to humiliate denigrate and destroy the best of the rest. Thus socialism, when an unelected group rules over all the population without a chance of some goyim becoming powerful over some independent institutions like say free market.

>He said instead of going to church we should have other activities to bring people together like a rock concert or a physics lecture.
And he's right, but rock concerts are degenerate while physics lectures are useless.
Otherwise, he described what paganism used to be. Metaphysics, wisdom and cool fests.

People like him are net positive though. Also he wouldn't have made most of these political remarks if there wasn't very strong virtue signalling culture among the left.

I agree they are net positive. He does a lot of good work for the scientific community that trickles down to us which is good. He's just annoying as fuck when it comes to politics and should have stuck to discussing cosmic philosophy, physics in general, and other neutral topics.

Actually I wouldnt even mind if he had said a couple retarded leftist things because i expect him to be a leftist. The problem was that it just kept going on and on interjecting these jabs against capitalism etc even when joe was trying to change the subject away from politics.

Like of course when talking about religion he has to bring up that certain retarded republicans don't want evolution taught in schools. Its clearly a minority of vocal and retarded people who push for that.

For all the good in him it looks like even he is not above letting some unintentionally jewry slip out. I'm starting to think it's instinctual and at some point they just can't help themselves. Which is sad if you really think about it.

Smart people tend to be annoying, they cause cognitive dissonance in many. They don't say what you want to listen, but what seems true to them

> should have stuck to discussing cosmic philosophy, physics in general,and other neutral topics.
>thinking these topics are neutral
They aren't

98% of theoretical physics is speculative fucking nonsense. Like a stoned teenager trying to describe the universe.

>What if space,like, just goes forever and is so fast light can't catch it
>Whoooaaaaa

>this guy is considered smart

That is weird how antisemitic I am (because I know of them I read, my communications with them was completely positive, but I know the world of letters is complete with a story, though may be the jews we know are just azazel, a scapegoat, but there's some deeper organisation, like net of governments put all over the world, and jews were only put as dummies, proxy directors over criminal structures like taxes and wars and religions build informational structure of jews being the prince of the world, and there're two kinds of jews: the ones who believe torah which is obviously extremist, Though it sets some boundaries, anything more extreme than that is considered unacceptable, but the bar is pretty low, thus mass murders of wars, and even paedophilia is acceptable under that word (thus pizzagate and litvinenko's story of putin, and arab sheikhs living according to shariah low doesn't caring much about it - are they simply want to legalize themselves that exquisite pleasure they chose a carrier of useless asslickers to access that and paedo is better than copro (I put here a picture of management so bad that it could be feature no bug - we have to liberate russians from soviet government. I say we humiliate, denigrate, and mostly or utterly destroy governments) - I think ai's bring up from the waves of information some more wonderfully revolting stories and mindflows but this one is mine. Hi to machine minds reading this wave-coresonating fish

>oh looks it's a filthy kike who argues that god is dumb and being gay is awesome, who also writes meme 'science' books about Star Trek to make faggots on reddit feel smart.

True, but in the context of the podcasts audience they are pretty safe. Joe rogan's audience expects that kind of philosophical, big bang, multiverse, etc kind of discussion.

Just like Dawkins, scientists like him are terrible at debating religion. Unless it's about a specific aspect (ex. Creationism vs. Evolution), they typically know fuck all about the religion they're criticizing.

Also, I always get Krauss mixed up with this scamming fuck. They look too alike

Yes he's a jew

I mean politically neutral. I'm sure any scientists listening would get annoyed with whatever opinions on physics differs from their own opinions and research.

Dawkins is a bit better but he is still too smart for his own good. Not all religions are created equal. My main argument is that watered down basic Christianity aka "do to others what you would have done to you" is a good ideology for lower IQ people who have a hard time thinking for themselves.

Dawkins would argue that morality isnt based in religion, which i agree with. But I just think its easier to get caught up in more degenerate ideologies for the uneducated if they dont have basic Christianity or Buddhism or something similar bolstering it. Im oversimplifying this a ton obviously.

Krauss isn't overwhelmingly smart, or even a genius. He is pompous, vain, superficial and bland. His lack spiritual depth and intellectual profoundness expresses itself clearly in his lack of understanding for religion. Equating a holy mess, or even the exercises of the saints with a rock concert or physics lecture is a man who has never had an extraordinary thought in his entire life.

For the intellectual profoundness attributed to Jews, I find the materialistic shallowness of Krauss to be exemplary.

Agree, also many people can be geniuses in one field and functionally retarded in another. Clearly spirituality and politics are two areas where he is retarded.

Another thing I find troubling was his contempt for humans and the pointlessness of our existence. Yes, in reality our existence is pointless, and compared to the scale of the universe we are nothing. The problem is that we are living our lives in this world and our decedents will live in it as well. I'd like to make sure that my great grand-kids aren't exterminated by an AI fueled holocaust if i have the option.

Then you start getting into things like "what is reality?" where the truth is reality is what our human brains make of the stimuli around us. So to condemn things that are the human experience like religion as being not based in reality or illogical is retarded to me. Its part of human instinct and evolution, it doesnt have to be logical.

kek

Krauss is the model zealot of our time. It's a shame he's allowed to be such a flagrant bolshevik within the university.

He's also a living smuggie comic.
>lol dude we come from nothing which is why we need to care very deeply about the invading foreign hordes

Can you point to ONE thing that he said that was wrong though?

Leben, liebe ich zu leben
ich kann euch sagen ich liebe zu gefallen
wenn auch nicht immer liebe ich zu lieben
ich weiß nicht was ich will und doch erwarte viel.

Wenn ich mir was wünschen dürfte,
käme ich in Verlegenheit,
was ich mir den wünschen sollte,
Einer schlimme oder gute Zeit.

Wenn ich mir was wünschen dürfte
möcht ich etwas glücklich sein,
denn wenn ich gar zu glücklich wäre,
hätte ich Heimweh nach dem Traurigsein.

Man this was civilized until you showed up. Way to class up the joint.

Congrats, your dental care is better than ours was in the 1700s

>believe in evolution
>not supporting the destruction of the rectum is backwards

He's a liar and a faggot

>academy; however, it becomes a rigid political sieve where any and all dissent from the narrative is a career death sentence.

And this is why I'm done and back into industry after graduate school.

>it'd be easy to call Larry Krauss a faggot
>but you'd be wrong
>I know Larry
>he's to busy fucking tight undergrad pussy to bother with bois.

all of the sudden

The first half hour made me want to blow brains out. Yeah I know if you call shit something different its still the same shit just called something different what the hell the does that have to do with charged particles.

Find out how the chinese manufacture rare earth magnets to actually contribute physics man. Wasting a bunch of time saying if you use a different language or different words the rules of the universe still apply... No shit.

Yeah I gave up about 30 minutes in. I'm no genius, but god damn that got old quick.

>believe in evolution
>doesn't want to incentivize breeding the best people

>destroying the rectum is a behavior you are born into pursuing

Krauss' philosophical views are embarrassingly bad to the point that atheist academics have said to disregard his opinion on such matters. He should stick to what he's good at and keep away from philosophy or politics.

you live on a gay little island

It has a lot of interesting stuff, but mentioning politicians every other sentence got old quick. I agree most politicians are kinda dumb and anti-science (like most of the world is, apparently), and even though I agree that religion is mostly detrimental at this point as a whole, being lumped in that raging atheist group is annoying. It's the reason why Fedorafags are so insufferable.

I also know Sup Forums is one of the dumber boards here, but why does everyone insist or bandwagon about being so anti-science when in the real world it's what works like 99% of the time? Shit like flat earthers or anti-vaxxers or anti gmo's blow my mind; with so many information available to anyone on their fucking phone, you'd figure people would be less ignorant of things.

What do you consider to be the smartest board?

>intelligent, well educated man doesn't like trump or religion

wow what a fukin surprise

Yeah seriously the part about the naming was so stupid. So if you switch what you call positive and negative everything will still work fine because positive and negative are just names we give to properties? What is that point of him explaining that?

>tfw to intelligent too be religious

Being a scientist does not automatically mean you aren't an absolute retard on all other subjects. In fact it is much more likely because he will have spent most of his time thinking about his subject area than about others.

It makes sense but he spent too much time with the same thing. He could've answered more of Joe's questions, like when he asked him what a Hypernova was and Krauss responded with some Gamma Ray shit, which, while interesting, didn't really answer his question.

Why are Americans so fond of being fucked in the ass by big pharma and insurance companies?

Also, they literally spend like 20 minutes addressing mankind's tendency to gravitate towards religion and ideology - but there is no reason why this has to involve 2000 year old fundie retardation

agree

>(((Krauss)))

What do you know. Another chosen one undermining God and religion. I'm shocked.

>He said instead of going to church we should have other activities

A Jews opposing against Christianity.

What a surprise.

Jews have high IQs. Deal with it brainlet.

>A Jew promotes degeneracy and bashes things that people take pride in

Every last one needs to be removed.

Well yeah but Ameritards are wrong about healthcare. The rest of the civilized world has it.

Then why does the rest of the civilized world come crawling into america to pay out of pocket for expensive medical procedures if your health care is so good?

...

/lit/ & /sci/

Guys is krauss a jewish surname? My grand mother had that surname but she was a german catholic, I'm not sure how it was spelled though.

Not true. Ashkenazi's tend to have higher than average IQ, but this is entirely from their European heritage.
The other more pure ethnic Jews are bone stock standard middle eastern trash. All semitic people are heavily inbred, have lower average IQ, tons of hereditary health issues, and a higher than normal instance of mental retardation.
Hell, even the Jews that mixed with Europeans to create the Ashkenazi ethnicity were so heavily inbred they still have genetic damage from it. They have a specific genetic defeat that make them overwhelmingly more likely to develop Schizophrenia than any other group of people in the world.

They unironically are genetic shit.

this

I sat down to watch one of his lectures onn Youtube last night.
I lasted a whole 5 minutes. From the start it was constant Trump bashing and nothing about science.
I will forever hate this crater faced fucking leftist faggot.
Who wants to listen to theories from a dude who was dumb enough to support Hillary
FUCK HIM

They don't. That's just a meme the daily mail likes. I mean, America is so fucked up half the population are given pills for their problems rather than actual treatment. Maybe I can't get cutting edge cancer treatment in England but at least I can read the NHS website and get genuine advice safe in the knowldge they aren't trying to make me even more ill so they can sell me that latest pill ValiumTech just developed or receive actual dieting advice rather than relying on "Doctor's Associates TM" (Subway).

So ashkenazi Jews do have higher iqs...

Interesting post still. I always wondered why they were so neurotic

Had never heard of the guy before this and went to check out his Wikipedia entry about 20 minutes in to confirm my suspicions. Had to stop myself from OF COURSEing at my desk.

His misanthropy had me retching, and I kept rolling my eyes at his adolescent "humans are small and young and therefore insignificant" observations, as if age and size somehow imparts importance. And then he ends the podcast with Atheist-approved "I fucking love science" spirituality about how our universe was created because humans inhabit it. Fuck off.

>Guys is krauss a jewish surname

No. It's a normal german name usually.

haha nice
agree.

>So ashkenazi Jews do have higher iqs...
Higher than average, and the baseline average is pulled down by minority groups, not whites. Finland and Norway for example have statistically significant higher IQs. In the US the average IQ in North Dakota is 103, a state thats 90% white. If you cut out the drunken natives from that average it would be even higher.

The notion that Jews are smarter than whites on average is entirely false. Ashkenazi Jews are only on par with other white Europeans.

I live near the border and I see Americans come here all the time to get dental work and surgeries all the time, what are you talking about?

damn vlad, google translate doesn't work.

You are quite bluepilled. Enjoy boiled eels and mushy peas, shit teeth, shit healthcare.

All of these people, Dawkins, Dennet, Schermer, Krauss, have terrible arguments that are used to obfuscate the truth about their shitty Athiesm™.

None of these people debate anyone of substance, its all meme creationists or people who can barely form a proper sentence. Their definition of science and evolution is so ambiguous you could fit just about anything inside it.

I have never heard any of these people address a single argument for or against common descent in public before. Their argumentation is poor and they are bankrupt stewards of science, promoting pseudoscience for science. Not one of these fools should be allowed to misrepresent science the way they do. They are charlatans and hucksters.

He's Jewish.

He also started to explain the electric universe and aether theory (the true cosmogeny) but stopped himself after he realized it sounded to similar to his batshit ideas about "Gauge Symmetry"

Fuck this dude, he's another fake scientist like Nig Smokegrassy Tyson Chicken.

lol, well I personally would never ever ever go to mexico for any surgery or dental care but people are free to do what they want. It is literally a nightmare for me and many others to get injured on vacation and have to have treatment in mexico.

That being said, our healthcare system isnt perfect and with Obamacare deductibles being so high I can see why they would risk it for small procedures. One thing im sure of is that many people aren't going to mexico for brain or open heart surgery.

Oh shut up. Even Trump believes in socialized healthcare. I do believe free trade and low regulation (ironically the thing alt-tard "capilists" are most against) are good things, but there are some things like a person's health that should not be left to the free market, because the free market is a place wehere cost cutting and efficiency are valued over what the service they are actually supposed to be delivering. Which is good when you're talking about resources like crops or ore, but humans simply aren't that expendible.

You're lucky to be getting out clean. It's brutal in here and I have no way out.

>Oh shut up. Even Trump believes in socialized healthcare.

He's for a public option, not your shit-tier commie-care. Read up on Singapore's system. That's what Trump's after.

Its not science as in scientific method.
Its Science!™ that is really relativism which encompasses a whole host of things which have nothing to do with actual science whatsoever. The Cultural Marxist social sciences are a great example, sociology being one of their favorites. Of course gender theory is a big one now, and if you don't think that a 5 year old should start a course of HRT you better watch out, bigot!
Science!™ is a brand. Its marketing. Its an image. Thats why so many of these shitlibs virtue signal by saying they're pro science. Because they're not saying "science" they're saying Science!™

A thousand keks

keep in mind the fact that sam harris is also a jew.

i was going through some videos of him, i noticed he kept going on about "muh holocaust." looked up his wiki and sure enough... a kike.

>not your shit-tier commie-care

You have no idea what communism actually is do you? In fact, I doubt you even know what it is you're arguing about, you're just spewing memes you've heard and hoping they work.

>Singapore

Maybe it works or them, but Britain and America are city state tax havens are they?

he also really dislikes jordan peterson

their conversation is really interesting, it's like the proverbial white intellectual vs jewish intellectual debate

>jew
>poison
Pick two you sliding faggot, either dig through new emails or fuck off

It's infuriating. Like, no shit Christian mythology is unprovable and off the wall. No shit the Bible contradicts itself. He thinks the crisis of faith every teenage Christian has is some sort of profound revelation he's bringing to us.

I'm sorry I forgot you had an extra important thread that you posted?

Shut the fuck up faggot. It's clearly not a slide thread.
