Do high standards of living lead to high time preferences? Does this always destroy democracies? - I know soft times lead to soft men, but how does a nation survive them when there is so much relentless soyface today?

[Kujo Jotaro]

I've been talking to progressives again, the free-market but a fair market people, and they keep bringing up this 'Gross National Happiness Index' Bhutan thing where politics is about maximizing average happiness in a society. Obviously I never got anywhere with them, but they didn't have anything to say back to my point about High vs Low Time Preferences. Which is kind of how some demographics spend their $1400 on stocks and other 'groups' spent it on Nikes. Someone with a high time preference focuses on his well-being in the present & someone with a low time preference focuses on his well-being in the future. Americans fuck this up with meme stocks and the 3,000+ stocks on NASDAQ being up only +0.69% Year-to-Date versus the coming inflation but in theory the 1400 put in stocks and not spent will still pay for Christmas this year if nothing else.

We just seem so bored with low time preference accomplishments that we don't even want to explore the stars anymore, we don't want struggle against anything to accomplish great things anymore. Just the leftist struggle sessions they have against the Great Internet National Socialism which always seems defined as something the average person actually agrees with. Like Trans-people in sports figuratively beating the shit out of women, and in some sports literally. Nobody is actually going to reverse Gay Marriage, and psych meds are easier to get than ever. We live in the soft times that make all men soft and weak.

Either way, my point in the arguments I've had is that happiness cannot be about self expression and gay marriage if the suicide rate has been only growing since 2000 (which surpassed Great Depression rates) and the highest rate of suicide idealization is among mized race people. People with low time preferences tend to not kill themselves, and people who act like Celebrities with their chemical dependencies and narcissism do. Firearms are hated most by suicidal people with a high time preferences who fear what they would do with them, and they put that on the 'Gun Culture' people with a low time preferences who collect and polish and shoot their guns at ranges with a strong hobby-group camaraderie that they've built up over years.

What do we do with the people with a high time preference, is there a way to prevent them during their childhood years or do we leave them be with easy access to guns to naturally sort themselves out? I think nature dealt with these people for us during earlier times in our civilization and we're just surrounded with them now because of our soft times make the soft men able to survive since the boomer era and compete socially with the low time preference people, am I wrong or is this just inevitable and what will it take before America gets to the hard times that sorts these people out for us? Is it China, SJWs collapsing America into warring pieces, or is there a softer route to dealing with these people's need for Social Democracy?

TL;DR: If the hard times which make hard men who make the soft times which make soft men who make hard times, around and around, what could the best-for-America end of this stage look like?

I think you're on to something with the time preference bit, it seems there is a very bold line that divides those who take responsibility for their future and those who don't. The problem here is that you can't divvy these sides up into neet little political parties because that's just one aspect of a person's value system.

Likewise when it comes to racial topics, there are a hell of a lot of boomer republicans who essentially support blm light. They will talk tough about how democrats are the real racists, but then feel bad for the injuns, and blackies because they were "oppressed". They'll unironically come up with justifications for reparations.

The USA has no unified culture, we don't really even have 2 distinct cultures. We have a bunch of people who all believe randoms things often contradicting themselves in the process. This is part of the reason I don't buy any sort of civil war theory. People don't have enough in common to rally around, and even if they did they'd just splinter as soon as their common enemy was gone.

You know I wonder how many of the people who constantly bleat the “soft times create soft men” quote are actually soft men themselves. I also wonder how many of them would actually survive the hardships they desperately hope for.

It is my experience than most first world men are very pampered and extremely soft and whiny even if they larp as though guys, their toughness usually comes down to hitting the gym a lot and buying certain though guy brands of clothes but they still have a domesticated character and are huge pushovers.

The thing is this can be a very good thing because any prosperous and orderly society needs that a majority people to comply with authority and rules and just agree to be nice, otherwise you get roid rage niggers running around and making any kind of constructive community effort become impossible since there is zero trust. What good are "based and redpilled macho macho men" when all you get is favela niggers shotting each others for petty shit and abusing everyone around them? The social contract demands a level of taming and domestication, the trade off is a better quality of life.

That said i do agree lately any positive masculine trait is being demonized and the screw is tightened way too much. For example, discipline is like a fucking curse word in current year. God forbids kids get taught discipline, hard work and meritocracy, they need to learn that is ok to be a fat slob and that they are entitled to be pampered and be considered equals and rewarded equally to people who are smarter and more responsible, otherwise is literal nazism. There is a balance somewhere, it shouldn't be this retarded. Boomers for example are whiny fags but they were admittedly a very industrious generation, maybe the economy was much better back then and it was easier to reap rewards but they still believed in the fundamental value that you at least have to move your ass and make yourself useful if you wanted respect and economic status and shit.

I really like this question. I definitely want SWJs to sunset themselves. I think we have that in common. I'm sure that hard times make hard men. I actually think it might have the opposite effect. I think the reason that the US is such a trash fire currently is because people born after 1945, decided to have divorces instead of children. The few kids around by the 1960s would either go on to do exactly what their parents did or have only one kid. This is a generalisation, but I mean to say this is the trend. In the '80s and '90s families had fewer kids and had more money to spend on their kids. I'm sure a lot of people remember Nintendo consoles and pokémon in the '90s and arcades from '80s. It's not good idea to use popular-culture as evidence, but in the latter half of the 1900s the idea that the would be too over populated for everyone to survive of the fat of the land was very popular. The book Make Room! Make Room! is a good example of this fervour. While Make Room and its kind could be described as Watermelon propaganda, which I would agree, it can't be ignored that the prediction of over population was completely incorrect. Many ideas of how America would turn out from after WW2 were flat wrong and much of social decay in America was never expected.

It's not hard to imagine that the Greatest Generation had a better foundation in childhood, lived their entire life on the gold standard, and lived in an America with something to prove coming out of the war of Northern aggression. Things that anyone knows works when it comes to society, two parent households, giving children the tools to be competent adults, like marksmanship, and growing up in communities when men went to work and women were home makers to name a few were practised then. Their children, the Boomers, discovered divorce and started trading up what wives they could have and their wives would trade what husbands they could have. While this could be like fun if you were staring down the barrel of "to death do we part", their children saw mommy and daddy transform into strangers who were no longer part of any family that had once created the kids seeing this. It was understandably traumatic. Gen X, the traumatised Boomer kids, reacted to this world of divorces by trying to Nerf everything. May be a good example of this is Jeffery Allen. (@Null did a MATI on him. It's linked in the thread.) Allen is a boomer who is so entitled that he believes he should get anything he asks for. I know it might just be a build up of always hearing yes in the past, but that sounds more like a soft man and not had man. It's not rocket surgery to see that NASA was the created by the Greatest Generation and the German Secrete Sauce they smuggled out of Europe during and after WW2. The Greatest Generation can be credited with creating the ideal that the Boomers pretend they are or that they are commonly believed to be by Millennials and younger. The decay of the West has been a steady pace generation by generation.

X-ers are truly awful. Filled with all the Lysine-processed Soy coming strait out American farms into the cereal and breakfast fed to Millennials and and Z-ers with their designed by comity education and designed by comity, the X-ers are the ones who are now starting to metastasise in American Society. They are the new Boomer stereotype of the 1990s and early 2000s. They are the target voter and they have replaced the Boomer in executive positions in Business and Government. It is the X-er, who loves Gender-Sex-Blacks-Trannies issues being cured, because to them it's an extension of the hugbox that they crave in response to their childhood. If younger people who are waking up to the broken realities of the US able to actually have voting power, then the influence of their jaded libtard parents wouldn't be so catastrophic. X-ers were the last growing population in the US. Since the X-ers were the last generation where the population was growing linearly, younger generations are not able to be as well represented politically as their parents can be represented. The brainwashing perpetrated by X-ers onto their Millennial children has continued the American Hugbox of Libtardation. It's really a deeper problem when you as a Millennial or X-er don't have freedom of association. Outside of religious groups, it's effectively illegal to have conservative thoughts in the United States. Most Americans have jobs where they have a W2, will get fired if they are late too many times, are completely replaceable, and even with college education are not able to have much control over if they keep their jobs or not. There are number of factors that influence this employment reality, thinking those true things will get you fired if you are ever over-head by HR speaking about them on Company Property or on Social Media.

The situation is dire. It must seem like I'm very black-pilled. It must seem like I think it's all too late for the US. Allow me to enlighten you to the angle that I see worth taking. In US election history only few times have there been a landslide vote in-favour of decedent party. As seen by the Balance of Parties diagram, situation such as the election of 1852, 1860 and 1912 the adage, "Divide and [you will] conquer" is plainly seen.

The mission of any parting wishing to change the face of American politics should be working to disrupt the unity of Democrat party. For example why is it that Jews are in the same party as Muslim Apologists? Why are are TRAPS and old-school feminists in the same party as tannies? Why are paedophiles and child sex abuse advocates is the same party? The free shit and sex party that has been the banner cry of the Democrats for the past 30 odd years needs to be challenged. I can in-vision the former Democrat electorate being better served by a Armenian Jewish Party, the MAP party, the TRAP party, and the Black Lives party. Inter-sectionalism is weak. It laterally creates an ideology of separation and not unity. It's time we just ask, "Why you being so hypocritically?", and like a cow to a LOL the seeds of division will be planted.

Alleging a historical process doesn't exempt you from it. Hell, if they were all living fulfillments of Rudyard Kipling's "If..." that would undermine the point for the same reason that SJWs implying that white supremacists own the culture from their bully pulpits at nearly every cultural institution we have is so laughable.

That said, is Hollywood is so obsessed with caricaturing random internet edgelords in their movies that we'll get a Cobra remake with the New Order Cult reimagined as accelerationist terrorists who recite the "Strong men create good times.." quote as their creed?

[Pimpleking55]

yet the happiest places on Earth by far are social democratic countries of Western Europe. Why? Because people over there make good money, have good benefits, can support families and have time for building strong family relationships, pursuing personal interests and development, travelling and other happy experiences. You should also keep in mind that countries of the so-called Nordic model are very pro-business.

This was the case a decade or 2-3 ago...since then we booted Christianity and common sense out of our nations and replaced it with migration policy's, liberalism and degeneracy. Now we are taxed to hell and back to pay for the new "Europeans'', anti hate speech laws are rampant, wages are stagnating. Healthcare gets more expensive each year because the migrants are sucking it dry since every single one of them has major mental and/or physical health issues,our social benefits can't be sustained in the near future because the working class are fewer and fewer, housing prices are going to the roof because of previous mentioned since they to need a place to live. Crime has exploded in the city's, with no-go zones if your a woman or a white guy.

The native western Europe population are complacent, fat, hedonistic and egocentric so strong family relationships are mostly gone. Most of the youth come from single parent family's, go to a school of your choice and ask a random child if their parents are together 19 of the 20 times they are not.
Also our schools have gone trough the shitter since its dumbed down to cater to the mouthbreathers so they don't get hurt and parent wont stop screeching before their offspring has a PhD, and all the educators are social justice warriors so don't you dare to have a single nationalist thought, or care about your history....shudder no globalism is god. Sexual education is tought to kindergartners with al its LGBT tranny glory and.

Our industry is bought by foreign investors so that is mostly gone as-well, development is nowhere near what it needs to be to progress and innovate so it is declining.

And i'll could go on and on, if you think Western Europe is a happy place....not anymore and it is making me a very sad panda.

Do you honestly think reversing gay marriage and tranny rights is suddenly going to fix the unhappiness epidemic in the developed world?

No, but despite asking the wrong question, you managed to point out one of the things that would.

That catty strawman you threw out there comes from a place of inherent dishonesty. The exact brand of dishonesty that has given rise to damn near every problem faced by the modern developed world. People may have willingly given up their rights, but they didn't do so knowingly. They were tricked out of their rights, and in turn, their ability to self-actualize, with false premises, ulterior motives, lies by omission, usury, and outright regular lies. This consent manufacturing technique is how the scum of the earth get what they want, on every level, from 'winning' a Twitter argument, all the way up the chain, to signing away our freedoms, national sovereignty, and economic buoyancy.

Democracy doesn't fail just because people can fuck with the votes. Democracy fails when dumb, gullible, or emotionally-supercharged people, are duped into voting against their own interests. It is very difficult for a non-fucking-psychotic person to keep up with the important problems the local community, state, country, and world face. Each order of magnitude comes with its own problems, each problem sees itself as the ultimate life-or-death situation, and that's how the people who care, market these problems. It is impossible to juggle all this bullshit in your head, when you're just trying to get through the week, so you can just get through the week after that, and the week after that, and the week after that, until you're finally allowed to croak. Ain't nobody got time for that shit, so most people, rightfully, don't pay attention to everything. Politicians LOVE the 24hr News Cycle for this horrible signal-to-noise ratio, because there is a very high chance that people won't pay attention when they try to tax the air you breathe, or the methane emissions from your farts, or the miles you put on your car, or every quarter you put in a gumball machine. All they need to do, is call their bill something like the "Protecting Children from ________ Act", or "The Freedom Act", or "The Bill Where Everyone Gets A Free Denny's Gift Card Act", or "The Bill That Only Good Empathetic People Will Vote Yes For Act". You want to 'Protect Children', don't you? Of course you do, you sin-filled monster. Now vote Yes on Prop 64 and get that free Senior Grand Slam!

People are highly emotional creatures, and as much as you'd LOVE to believe you're above it all, and wouldn't just vote for something because it sounds agreeable, you do. You do, you fucking schmuck, and you do it way more often than you think you do. You're not reading through hundreds and sometimes thousands of pages of legislative text. You're letting them take everything from you, and you are loving every minute of it, because you get to be a smuggie on Twitter and show everyone what a good fucking boy you are. So empathetic. So enlightened. So brave.

Some random thoughts. Are we basing this discussion on the idea that the 1950s-1960s were the high point of American culture or "civilization"? If so many scholars consider the 1950s to be a anomaly in world history. Wouldn't it be better to base this discussion on standards around 1877 to 1945?

Our Black Party

www.ourblackparty.org

I'm winning! I didn't even start this party and they are already doing it. This is great. Help support the OUR BLACK PARTY and get out the black vote from the hands of Democrats.

Remember, you can't spell Democrat without rat!

Come on! Who want's to start the American Jewish Party? I bet we you get Ethan Cline elected to the California House. You know every one named Lustig and-or Weinstein would vote for them.

---

There is still the TRAP Party. I bet Camille Paglia would make a great party simp. If you saw the Roda Viva Video from a past MATI in full, Paglia correctly predicted the 2021 Democrat ticket. It would be great to peal her and similar away from the Democrat base.

---

Still got a MAP Party that needs covering and we need a party to peal away Classic (pre-1960s) Liberals. Thinking out loud, Muslim Party. Maybe a US chapter of the Muslim Brother Hood. There are Muslims everywhere is the US. You know Amy Ramadan would vote for them, if she votes.

I'm sure we all Republican.
Do you get it? It's a play on the word can, which is a suffix in Republican.

It is a strawman question, but I wrote it to point out how absurd it is to even mention trannies and gay marriage in a post about low general happiness in society because I think it's completely irrelevant. Not to show any kind of superiority or enlightenment. I understand what kind of person you think I am but I don't think that my posts show that.
The current "they" who are actively eroding my constitutional rights, destroying my country's fragile institutions to make way for gigantic corruption are Polish nationalists who do the same exact shit you complain about except it's all wrapped in "opposing gender ideology", "opposing LGBT ideology", "opposing the regime in Brussels", "opposing the post-communist deep state". In America, when they try to take away your guns, take away your free speech, take away whatever you have an actual independent elected court system that often strikes down whatever it is that politicians want to do, over here the exact opposite happens because everything is controlled by one party. You think you've got it bad, well I can tell you it gets significantly worse.

If by "based" you mean "braindead", sure. I can no longer see any positivity in the future at this point. I can't confidently say I'll be alive in 10 years and I'm about to turn 30 and alone. Pretty sure that's the point where your chances of having tard children start going up anyway. I'm increasingly wondering what I'm even doing here? I've barely accomplished anything. Am I just here to consume resources until I get rounded up for toxic whiteness/not having the coof jab/insert other reason here?

Holy shit, look outside your window. The world isn't ending. Twitter crazies are just a very loud and annoying minority and they unfortunately have too much institutional power right now. Every generation has some freaks who want to radically change the world, troons aren't going to take over any time soon.

Talking to young people, it seems like they are incredibly fed up with old boomers making decisions for them. Lockdowns have ruined their hopes of graduations, proms, etc. I think we are going to see the teenage angst amplified x100 ripple through society in a couple of years.

Just find a community of people that shares the same values as you, and forget about anyone else.

The main problem is that the average person (of any age) just kind of goes with the flow. Currently, and with no real end in sight, society keeps drifting further into the crazy waters of the Left or Progressives or whatever one wants to define it as. Yeah the kids might be fed up with boomers telling them what to do, but that doesn't mean that these young generations are against them for what I (and I suspect @Return of the Freaker) would like them to be. A lot of them rage against the boomers because they think that people who want borders are Nazis, think that whatever country they're living in is incredibly Right Wing, etc.

I do agree with you, though. The world isn't nearly as insane as Twitter would lead one to believe. It is however constantly heading in that direction incrementally. It's true that troons aren't going to be rounding us up and putting us into femboy FEMA camps, but Freaker's concerns such as the steady and increasing anti-white sentiment has been, is and will continue to grow especially as demographics shift and so goes power to it. Most people just want to be left to their own devices. That is, unfortunately, part of the problem. It's that while you may want to be left alone, people and increasingly the state won't leave you alone. In the end all you can really do is have your own ducks in a row, but I don't think that it's unreasonable for someone to look at these things on a wider scale and feel pretty despondent when looking into the future.

That's basically it. Offline, I'm surrounded by boneheads who if they aren't really lefty they're still on board with all the coof shit. It's tiresome to say the least. And yeah, the future of America looks like Yugoslavia to me, but with one faction poisoned by pathological altruism.
