Topic: An actual question
DarkDude started this discussion 3 months ago #130,265
I’ve heard white people express the opinion before that whites have higher IQs than blacks.
If white people as so smart, answer this one simple question.
Why are there three spatial dimensions in our universe?

Some physicists think there's more.
I don't know why we experience 3 rather than 2 or 4, but I do know European culture is more advanced than colored civilizations in Africa.

So if you don’t even know how many dimensions space has and everything exists in space, then you don’t really know anything do you?

You say "advanced." From a purely objective perspective, without thinking about what individuals value because that’s subjective, what is superior about European society? If there is something special about you that’s more than me, does that mean you’re not going to die? What rule actually fundamentally applies to me that doesn’t apply to you? I don’t think there is anything.

You said some physicists say there’s a different number and you said "experience 3" implying there might be a difference between the number of true dimensions and the number we experience.

There's a lot of examples that could be mentioned, but advancements in physics is one.
Europe has made significantly more discoveries in the fundamental nature of the universe.

Just because other Europeans discovered things, that doesn’t make you superior. You’re saying you’re superior because of things other Europeans did. Prove you’re really a smart European and tell me why space has three dimensions. If you’re superior because you have the capability to make discoveries about the fundamental nature of reality, well then you can just do it right?

Even if hypothetically I was inferior to you, you would have to admit based on this, that something is superior to you. So whatever arrogance you have over me that you feel is justified, whatever you think should be done to me, something else should do to you, because you are also inferior to something which is superior to you.

Have you ever wondered why? You’re assuming that if Europeans produce more scientific discoveries than Africans, it must be because Europeans are more intelligent. What if I told you that for all of history up until the 1990s, Europe always had a higher population than Africa? Would it then necessarily require that Europeans are more intelligent than Africans if Europeans produce twice as many innovations as Africans if there are twice as many Europeans as Africans?

Yes. Africa is poor due to colonialism which means that Africans have had limited access to education compared to Europeans. As Africa develops economically, access to education will improve and so will innovation.

What you’re failing to understand is that Europe dominated the world due to very specific conditions that only happened once in history. The discovery of America and the invention of gunpowder. Native Americans were wiped out because due to isolation from the old world, they didn’t have resistance to old world diseases. Europe got gunpowder before Africa, because of trade routes that connected Europe with China. Europe also had a higher population than Africa which also helped Europe colonize Africa. Obviously the country with more people can get more men to fight in the army and so on. The reason why Europeans dominate in science isn’t because Europeans are more intelligent.

Why do you think China didn't take over the world when they got gunpowder first?
Why do you think Europe defeated the Indigenous rather than the other way around?

For most of history, India and China actually had the largest economies. Europe was relatively poor until the gunpowder and disease accidents happened.

Taking over the world isn’t evidence of intelligence. It’s evidence of respiration. Europe was poor so they were more greedy. That’s why the Spanish went plundering the Americas looking for gold.

North African empires held territory in Europe multiple times before the age of exploration and European colonialism.

Like the whole premise of your racism is that well if blacks are biologically different than whites and that explains why whites are more successful than blacks can never become more successful than whites. But if you believe that biology can change then that means that even if it were true that whites were biologically superior to whites which is something I don’t believe in at all, then that would invalidate your claim that blacks and whites can never be equal or that blacks can never surpass whites.

You also do realize that bullets are made from metal that’s softer than the metal they penetrate right? Lead is a softer metal than steel but a lead bullet can puncture steel armor because of the velocity.

Read a book, they call it the bronze age and iron age for a reason.
It's *everything*. Not just which sword is stronger, but who had better farm tools to make everyone well fed. and who could sell tools, and who had to find any way to pay for tools that lasted.

I know in movies they like making these epic sword battles, but in real life, spears were much more common (even in Europe). For example, the ancient Greeks had an arms race to see who could make the longest spears.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarissa
The reasoning is simple: a spear is longer than a sword so if you have a spear you can stab someone with a sword before they get close enough to swing at you.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Age
> The Iron Age (c. 1200 – c. 550 BC) is the final epoch of the three historical Metal Ages, after the Copper Age and Bronze Age.[1] It has also been considered as the final age of the three-age division starting with prehistory (before recorded history) and progressing to protohistory (before written history). In this usage, it is preceded by the Stone Age (subdivided into the Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic) and Bronze Age.

I’m not denying that iron is important, but I am saying that if the Assyrian Empire was so superior to the Kushites, it is weird Assyria fell 900 years before Nubia.

If the soviet union split and Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus all fought over the #1 spot it would be very disingenuous to say the soviet union just failed relative to some 3rd world country.
Now in reality it got split up, and the US took #1 spot so you can say the Soviet Union failed.
Neither existed in their old form, but they became the lineage for new countries.
If Babylon is the new #1, and they were split off from Assyria then how are you going to point to this event as proof Assyria failed relative to Nubia?

A Babylonian was living in a more advanced society before, during, and after splitting from the other cities in Assyria.
Those cities fought each other and continued to evolve.
Nubia can claim to have been more stable, but that doesn't seem to count for much if you're technologically lagging and subject to stronger neighbors.

Fertile crescent -> Europe (settled by fertile crescent peoples) -> USA (European heritage)

How are you so fucking stupid that you think that’s a burn? You’re literally just adding onto my argument. I was calling you stupid for saying you can tell how powerful a country is by looking at a map. What the fuck is wrong with you? Do you have brain damage? Fuck you. I hate you for how stupid you are.

Yes, what's your point?
At one point no one lived in Europe.
For thousands of years, Europeans have been superior.

The US has 170,000 troops abroad and 800 bases. That’s an average of like 200 people per base, but the distribution isn’t even because the largest bases are in countries that are close allies like Japan, so the most common size is less than 200 people.

They can move troops around when they need them.
200 troops to secure the base while they ship in 1000 if they need it.
Or to coordinate with contractors among the locals.
A small base is enough to keep the local leaders loyal.

That’s literally not true though. There were periods where Europe suffered decline and other parts of the world had larger empires. For example during the Middle Ages, the Islamic world was more powerful and more advanced.

That’s not why the United States has military bases. The United States has military bases to protect our allies. Countries that aren’t allied with us never have US bases.

It's lean, and the US still gets what it wants. All those corps coming in and doing what they like, and 200 soldiers is enough to keep it running.

Do you just completely lack a concept of time? Japan wasn’t allied with the US when we went to war with them either.

We have a base in Cuba, and we aren't allied to them.
What does that have to do with Japan? We didn't have a base in Japan when we were adversaries.

You just keep stating one incorrect thing after another, and then when I give a concrete example of how wrong you are, you call me stupid over and over.
Do you think saying it over and over makes anyone reading forget whatever BS you just wrote?

The universe has three spatial dimensions because this number uniquely allows for stable, complex structures like planetary orbits, and it supports the inverse-square laws for gravity and electromagnetism that are essential for atoms and chemistry. While we can't definitively "prove" it, scientific theories suggest three dimensions are an optimum for life to emerge and for stable, complex systems to form and function as we know them.

That’s not really a reason though, those are just consequences of there being three dimensions. That’s like saying the sun exists because the Earth is warm.
