Only dumb people are patriots

And this is a fact. Only a mentally challenged person would pledge his loyalty to a piece of land and the authority that governs it.

That's not very patriotic of you wtf.....

>>1
There is a truth to this. Dumb people stick to the paradigm of "my country/my tribe" and wouldn't entertain thoughts about more complex political landscapes - that requires intellect.

Patriots may be stupid, but they aren't as retarded as nationalists who worship their own brand of muttblood.

>>4
That's ethnicists, not necessarily nationalists. Granted it's a subtle distinction that may be beyond you're are grasp.

>>5

hey rabbi, whatch'a doin'?
nationalism
b-but it's not REAL nationalism! it's [meme word]!

>>6
Whom said that?

>>6,7
Ethnic nationalism is a thing and is distinct from Nationalism itself.

>>8
Show me a single major organization of nationalists who support immigration then.

I think it's not that they're dumb, but that they're not very critical. Something about inclination and not capacity. It's not as if "having the same mental capacity, everyone would come to the same conclusions", that is not the case, because the physical world is still in-itself meaningless, and so there is a lot of room for invention.

Patriotic dubs

It's only dumb for white people to be patriots, since their own governments want them dead. Chinese, Jews, etc. can all be patriotic without looking ridiculous. I mean, other than their deformed ethnic look which is pretty ridiculous looking.

It's not as if "having the same mental capacity, everyone would come to the same conclusions"

If you are intelligent enough to derive X from Y, why wouldn't everyone intelligent enough to derive X from Y think likewise?

>>13
You are likely to have irrational fears stemming from child experiences, for example, but be unaware of them consciously. This will influence your interpretation of events, and thus you will draw personally-biased conclusions. Critical thinking and the ability to understand your own biases and deeper motivations is more important than intelligence beyond a certain base level. Which, of course, means it is not important at all, as nothing in the material world has importance due to being an delusion.

as nothing in the material world has importance due to being an delusion

Would "information on the world being a delusion" be important? Such as a book.

>>15
No.

>>16
What if the only information about "world being a delusion" was contained in that book?

>>17
What part of "nothing in the material world has importance" is confusing you exactly?

>>18
You can't entertain a hypothetical situation without resorting to dogmatic thinking.

>>19
You asked whether a book was important, I explained that it was not important. You then asked whether a book would be important if it was one of a kind. It was at this point I realized your view of reality was confused, and I asked you to express you confusion.

You see, nothing in he material world is important. Therefore it follows that a book or "information" is not important. It doesn't matter if the information contained in a book is unique or not, it is still not going to be important. Further, there is no scenario where something is important if it exists, that's not dogma it's just common sense. Understand?

>>20

nothing in he material world is important
urther, there is no scenario where something is important if it exists, that's not dogma it's just common sense.

Imagine if this dogmatic position was only contained inside a single book in the world, without which you won't know it. Just imagine a book without which you won't know that "common sense" "You see, nothing in he material world is important".

If information is unimportant, then the distinction betweeen dogma and common sense is irrelevant.

To understand it, think about the time before you held the notion that "nothing in he material world is important".
You received information about the philosophical position that "nothing in he material world is important" and you were convinced by it. Now imagine it didn't happen: but from your future perspective this information would be important as "liberating insight".

>>23
Nobody said it was a "liberating insight". It literally doesn't matter whether you know it or not. There isn't any need to be "convinced" of reality, it just is.
>>21,22
You must be the dumbest, most butthurt man on Earth. Saying that nothing in the material world matters doesn't mean that *some things* (such as the fact that nothing matters) actually do matter. It means exactly what it says, nothing matters. Also, just in case you still don't get it, the distinction between dogma and common sense doesn't matter. But it is what it is, clearly nothing matters in the world and everybody can see that if they think about reality for a moment. Sounds like common sense to me.

Now, repeat your favorite buzzword: DOOOOOOGGGGMMMAAAAAAAAAAA! But still, nothing matters.

>>24
Clearly, your idea matters to you, as you defend it with zeal of committed ideologue.

tfw nihilists unable to accept that if nothing matters, then nihilism also doesn't matter - which implies defending and arguing for this position doesn't matter either.

>>25
To be fair, you do sound massively butthurt at the idea that nothing matters, it's hard to not keeping shoving it down your throat to see you sperg. Are you that same fag making the boomer wisdom threads? Hate to break it to you, gramps, politics doesn't matter.

A liberal muslim homosexual ACLU lawyer professor was teaching a class on Karl Marx, known atheist

"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Marx and accept that he was the most highly-evolved being the world has ever known, even greater than Jesus Christ!"

At this moment, a brave, patriotic Navy SEAL champion who had served 1500 tours of duty and understood the necessity of war and fully supported all military decision made by the United States stood up and held up a rock.

"How old is this rock, pinhead?"

The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied "4.6 billion years, you stupid Christian"

"Wrong. It's been 5,000 years since God created it. If it was 4.6 billion years old and evolution, as you say, is real... then it should be an animal now"

The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of Origin of the Species. He stormed out of the room crying those liberal crocodile tears. The same tears liberals cry for the "poor" (who today live in such luxury that most own refrigerators) when they jealously try to claw justly earned wealth from the deserving job creators. There is no doubt that at this point our professor, DeShawn Washington, wished he had pulled himself up by his bootstraps and become more than a sophist liberal professor. He wished so much that he had a gun to shoot himself from embarrassment, but he himself had petitioned against them!

The students applauded and all registered Republican that day and accepted Jesus as their lord and savior. An eagle named "Small Government" flew into the room and perched atop the American Flag and shed a tear on the chalk. The pledge of allegiance was read several times, and God himself showed up and enacted a flat tax rate across the country.

The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of the gay plague AIDS and was tossed into the lake of fire for all eternity.

Semper Fi.

>>28
Good story, but the Republicans stopped being "Small Government" a while ago.

nothing matters lol dude we're all just a speck of dust in space maaan we're so insignificant
