Who are our geniuses?

Who was our last Leonardo Da Vinci? Or Who IS? Do we have any legendary citizens these days?

True genius goes unrecognized now as the preferred trait became conformity.

Bait not accepted

Ahmed Mohamed. Kid is a friggin genious.

Terry A Davis.

Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Ford

Thomas Pynchon, of course.

This guy.
Also this.

>Ben Franklin
You know he was a massive racist right?

People love to shit on him because hasn't done anything but becoming an astro-physicist is very hard.

WE

obviously not.

Im the Genius here mate

>>>/reddit/

he was a thinker, but he was actually a shit scientist. None of his ideas actually worked and he barely had a grasp on the concepts he was playing with.
at best he was a very imaginative man with some painting skills
a genius, I'm not so sure

lol lets just drill into the air the same way we do with the ground!

Bill Nye is a polymath.

Isaac Newton is Da Vinci tier and about 200 years his contemporary.
Eistein was probably our most well known recent genius, but maybe not quite Newton or Da Vinci tier. His ideas did shape science for most of the last century though.

Bill is a faggot

Ignorant pleb

Miles Mathis ("π = 4").

Just kidding.

...

anyone born before current year is considered a "massive racist"

This place is a pro-German nationalist board. Ben HATED Germans more than he loved America.

get out troll

He's a cool guy, guys like him really make it hard to justify deporting Africans back home.

One can not be simultaneously a racist and a genius?

Also, I think you mean Afro-physicist

Mussolini

Winston Churchill: "What a man! I have lost my heart!... Fascism has rendered a service to the entire world... If I were Italian, I am sure I would have been with you entirely from the beginning of your victorious struggle against the bestial appetites and passion of Leninism."

Thomas Edison: "The greatest genius of the modern age."

Book dedication from Freud: "To Benito Mussolini, from an old man who greets in the ruler, the Hero of Culture."

Mahatma Gandhi: "Unfortunately, I am no superman like Mussolini."

Leon Trotsky: "[Mussolini] was the only man who could have brought about the revolution of the proletariat in Italy."

Georges Sorel: "[Mussolin is] a man no less extraordinary than Lenin . . . of a greater reach than all the statesmen of the day . . . not a socialist from the bourgeoisie; he never believed in parliamentary socialism."

Vladimir Lenin: "What a waste that we lost Mussolini. He is a first-rate man who would have led our party to power in Italy."

Juan Perón: "Mussolini was the greatest man of our century, but he committed certain disasterous errors. I, who have the advantage of his precedent before me, shall follow in his footsteps but also avoid his errors."

Ronald Reagan: "Fascism was really the basis for the New Deal. It was Mussolini's success in Italy, with his government-directed economy, that led the early New Dealers to say "But Mussolini keeps the trains running on time." "

FDR: "There seems to be no question that [Mussolini] is really interested in what we are doing and I am much interested and deeply impressed by what he has accomplished and by his evidenced honest purpose of restoring Italy."

FDR: "I don't mind telling you in confidence that I am keeping in fairly close touch with that admirable Italian gentleman."

Like alive today? Hard to say because our society venerates athletes and musicians, not geniuses. And most of our innovation has been in the tech fields, where efforts are collaborative. The days of the mad scientist, tucked away alone in a lab are coming to a close, if not gone completely. The last "solo" genius I can think of would be Tesla. Ted Kaczinski was a literary/social/political genius to be sure.

But I dont think astute observations are what OP is looking for.

Da Vinci is the only one. He is the only legendary citizen to that level. No one else has ever or will ever be Da Vinci tier.

He hated Germans more than he loved America.

>guys like him really make it hard to justify deporting Africans back home.

Meh, I think we can spare a "science communicator" like him and be okay.

Bill Gates is pretty based. He reminds me of myself. Like the Sperg to end all Spergs.

Professor Brian Cox.

Absolutely visionary.

Van Neumann

>one smart black guy counterbalances the entire race

Probably the closest we have today.

A genius would know that Germans aren't subhuman

I find bullshit

>Thomas Edison
Hated Italians

>Frued
Wrote really bad stuff about Italians

>Reagan
Hated Italians

FDR
>hated italians

>Churchill
Hated Italians

I doubt those quotes are real.

Doesn't take a genious to know Canadians are sub-human

The Musk?

Fuck off subhuman! Elon Musk is a genius and loved Canadians and went to University here because he loved Canadians so much.

>I find bullshit

>Thomas Edison
>Hated Italians
Thomas Edison, as quoted in Pound in Purgatory : From Economic Radicalism to Anti-semitism (1999) by Leon Surette, p. 72

>Frued

>Reagan
>Hated Italians
Ronald Reagan. Time in 1976. Reagan adviser Jude Wanniski has indicated that, in 1933, New Dealers as well as much of the world admired Mussolini’s success in avoiding the Great Depression.

>FDR

>I doubt those quotes are real.

He is desu

>build a clock
>become a millionaire

But you know they all believed in Nordicism right? They had an ethnic hatred of Italians.

literally eddit. These aren't geniuses they are media figure heads.

>genius
>thinks the matrix is a documentary

Pick one

Those are actual quotes. The rest is irrelevant.

Turing
(((Von Neumann)))
(((Feynman)))
(((Grigori Perelman)))
Coïncidence ?

ditto

/thread

But why would they say that if they hated Italians?

I know this is supposed to be a bait but isnt Stephen Hawking supposed to be actually legit ? I mean I know he said some stupid shit about politics but that should not undermine his science stuff.

you are a troll and I won't talk to you anymore

>not even (you) worthy

you are a bad troll.

...

Snob. Scorsese is better.

Da Vinci's accomplishments were more varied but Einstein's genius was considerably greater.

me.

Tesla.

Terence Tao

A true genius doesn't just know a lot of things, he creates NEW things/knowledge. Most bargain bin geniuses have a lot of head knowledge but never contribute anything significant to the advancement of humanity.

The closest in our lifetimes is Elon Musk, and he's brute forcing his way there.

Fucking lel

I believe he created a clock from his imagination but left this country because it's so racist.

Forgot his name though

Nicola Tesla
Hawking is ok but not Tesla tier.
Einstein is overrated
The biggest one before Tesla was Newton

Those are the only two that came to my mind too. I wanted to include Bobby Fischer, because of his being turbo redpilled, but I don't think he covers enough bases in the same way Ted Kaczinski does. Other than Tesla though (as far as actual inventions and such goes) I can't think of anyone since. It's pretty sad to think how wasted he was purely because of greedy Jews and invention thief Thomas Edison. It wasn't that Tesla was born at the wrong time (depending on how much things change in the future) he was born in the complete wrong universe. If you genuinely want to help people purely for the greater good, you have absolutely no chance when your backers are Jews. I think that's part of the reason I'm glad Starlite died with its inventor. You can see how mad the Jews are about it still now, there's numerous videos, information, and tests by NASA that proves how well it works, yet if you look it up it's always "claimed it could do X". Calling it a claim is like "claiming" fire is hot, water is wet or grass is green.

Stay mad you hook nose kikes, it's a surprise that with those big chess club brains of yours you've never actually invented anything yourselves.

this guy.

Chris Ware is the best artist alive, period.

seconded

Probably the greatest mind in recent times

If you're going to name drop the 20th century like you know what you're talking about, you're gonna need more names. Let's add a few more to the list:

David Hilbert
Alexander Grothendieck
Jean Pierre Serre
Lev Landau
Hermann Weyl
Julian Schwinger
Kurt Gödel

Have you even read the theory?

Me

This guy (maybe?).

Elon Musk
Demis Hassabis

>Who was our last Leonardo Da Vinci?

You'll never have a genius like this again because it's no longer possible to be a jack of all trades in sciences. You have to specialize most of your life to be able to make small breakthroughs now. It's just not humanly possible to encompass novel discoveries in multiple fields.

However, if you wanted to be a genius /on the same level/ as DaVinci, it's never been easier. ~90th percentile people can replicate his skills and far surpass his knowledge pretty easily.

That's the tradeoff.

All the geniuses of old were a product of their time.

It sounds like a justification to a laziness.

I have no doubt in my mind it was this dude right here:
