I remember seeing some older white people who hated black culture as they though it appealed to base instincts
 
they thought that a white person adopting such styles and mannerisms was backward, as they were capable culturally of striving towards pursuits of higher culture
 
So what do you think of "wiggers" and how can this issue be addressed?

I used to see people elsewhere post a lot of (intentional?) wordsalad describing detailed complex "neoreactionary" views which they admitted was purposely verbose (using more words than necessary to filter out "pseuds" or dumber people).
 
This seems to have filtered out in favor of a general MAGA populism (?), maybe just because it's the biggest alternative movement that's closest nearby to those views (?).
 
Anyway is anyone in to NRx views or is it a stale or dead meme at this point or what should we think of it?

> Bottles was born in 2017 as a personal need. I needed a practical way to manage my wineprefixes. I hate the idea of using applications that install me a version of wine for each application and I decided to create this application, based on the concept of using one or more wine prefixes as a "container" for all my applications.

Seems like a lot of trust has been obliterated today, like I cringe reading people try to broadcast intimate opinions shared within a relationship post-breakup on to social media
 
So then either you have to find people you can test a lot to see if they're trustworthy, or you mostly have to "let it all burn" until trust completely breaks down in society forcing a reset of trust and punishment of breaches of trust
 
So what do you think about how high trust societies are created, how much trust exists in society today (USA), or what are your thoughts on this topic in general?

It's an unofficial end to summer with kids going back to school and some places curtailing operations.
 
Seems like in the spirit of trying to reduce people's labor that shopping or picking up food might be curtailed on the day so people don't have to work with customers as much, for those who have the day off.
 
What does Labor Day mean to you?
and how many people do you think are like this?
 
I guess there are some blacks and Native Americans who think there were certain whites that wronged them in the past.
 
Other "POC" are fine with whites and don't really care and think pitting races against each other is just a divide and conquer propaganda meme to distract people from conflict against wealthy people.
 
There seem to be some white girls who are dating "POC" simply because of their hatred of their own whiteness or maybe white males who ghosted them or something.
 
On the other hand I see more "POC" speak positively of whites at times in reaction to some of this anti-white racism.
 
So like why do you think there is so much hate of white people sometimes today?
The Case For Computer Based Math (www.computerbasedmath.org)

> CBM is a new subject that starts from maths in the real world and works back to redefine the educational subject to match. A crucial change is to have computer-based (rather than human-powered) computation at its heart—redefining maths as the anchor subject for computational thinking across all subjects, centred on real-life problem solving, not historical hand-calculating techniques.
May have had a post like this some time before
 
I can't tell what natsoc is through the propaganda, plus a lot of self-identified natsocs online seem like classical liberals with a nationalist bent to them
 
I generally like freedom over authoritarianism and capitalism over socialism, so those would be my complaints
 
I like conservative / nationlist things and voluntarily taking care of people instead of socialism though
 
so what do you define natsoc as and if you're natsoc why do you like it and if not natsoc what do you like instead

Incidentally this is an argument against government welfare for humans, that such welfare may reduce a person's incentive to find work if they are given things they don't have to "forage" for. I note this with all sensitivity that humans are not the same as animals, but I think the analogy exists (some people were up in arms about comments made like this before, complaining that such a comment was equating humans with animals)
One stat says divorced men are twice at risk for taking their lives
 
So redpilled people here probably have no illusion about the danger of divorce; normies need to be redpilled about the dangers
 
Personally I'm ok with marrying, so long as you basically go in knowing it could end in a divorce, which drives up the cost of savings to prepare for a divorce, or maybe at least having an idea in mind of what to do if things go south.
 
I presume a lot of guys who don't have these plans would be more at risk.
 
Then another risk factor is an addiction like drugs, some of the deaths are drug overdoses. So like if people have drug problems here, are they getting help for them or is a forum like here a good place for men to talk to each other about that issue.
 
Financial strain is another one. So maybe a focus on building up a strong career to be able to weather any kind of storms or setbacks? Any tips or thoughts on boosting financial well being?
 
Do you feel lonely and have you found other people to connect with? I think there need to be more organized IRL general groups. At least I remember all these local clubs and private organizations that existed as kind of social outlets where people would go, but it doesn't seem like that has persisted in popularity with the younger ages (plus they don't have the leisure or funds for dues, probably).
 
What are some other risks and how could we make middle aged white men in general resilient to improve the statistics?
 
(Of course some of the problem is structural, the economy being strained by regulations and so on and so forth)
Some say they're white elders who dindu nuffin
 
Some say they had all kinds of power and made awful choices
 
For myself I had stereotypical experiences of boomers and some of them could have been humbler, more generous, kinder, more courageous, and so on.
 
The younger generations seem "lost" due to defective leadership of the older generations, although maybe it could be argued they have failed to "bootstrap" certain things.
 
But also I feel the boomers' parents were more of the ones that needed to prevent things that were happening, and they could have possibly parented better.
 
The boomer parent generation seemed to have the baton and dropped it, but then boomers ran far away in the wrong direction, then the generations coming after than have been simply a derivative of this aggressive lead in the wrong direction made by the boomers
 
Thoughts on boomers, or their parents, or the generations?

> How often should you shower?
 
> While there is no ideal frequency, experts suggest that showering several times per week is plenty for most people (unless you are grimy, sweaty, or have other reasons to shower more often). Short showers (lasting three or four minutes) with a focus on the armpits and groin may suffice.
 
> If you’re like me, it may be hard to imagine skipping the daily shower. But if you’re doing it for your health, it may be a habit worth breaking.
