Stupidity Knows no Bounds
Stephen Hawking
Apparently Stephen Hawking, famous for being smart, is actually quite stupid. Or it might be better to say that he is an over-educated fool. The fact that he has taken this position should call his science into question as well, because this shows serious flaws in reasoning abilities and general awareness of he world. What am I talking about? I’m talking about how this:
LONDON (AP) — British physicist Stephen Hawking has dropped plans to attend a major international conference in Israel in June, citing his belief that he should respect a Palestinian call to boycott contacts with Israeli academics.
The University of Cambridge released a statement Wednesday indicating that Hawking had told the Israelis last week that he would not be attending “based on advice from Palestinian academics that he should respect the boycott.”

Those Fakestinians are lucky to be alive. No other people group in the world would put up with such crap for such a long time (except for perhaps self hating white liberals). This is what I can’t stand. The left is always trying to paint us as Nazis, when they are practically oozing anti-semitism from their pores. I have the distinct impression that most leftists have no clue what the Nazis were about. What made the Nazis so heinous, was their attempt to wipe out the Jewish race. Not only their attempt, but the way they went about doing it and the things they did on the side. Nasty things like slicing body parts off of one person and putting them on another, and in some cases making lampshades out of human skins. If you take the anti-semitism away rom the Nazis, then basically all you have left is a neighorhood bully, albeit a socialist neighborhood bully. The Japanese were actually much worse during WWII because they treated everyone they came across like crap.
But that’s beside the point. The people all these left wing oikophobes are crying over ARE the Nazis of today. The Hamas charter says that they will not rest until the Jewish people are pushed into the sea. What does that sound like? Sounds like the Nazis.
So Hawking is upset over the Jews defending themselves from the Nazis. People like Hawking are the kinds of people who would rat out their Jewish neighbors to the Gestappo during WWII. But can’t dump it all on Hawking, when his attitude is typical and reflective of the dominant ideology for England and western Europe as a whole. That disgusting mental disease of maudlin self hatred and anti-semitism bound up and wrapped with socialism is going to be the death of Europe. I’m sick of the flagrant anti-semitism packaged as politcal correctness, sick to death of nazism repackaged as white guilt and multiculturalism, sick to death of the disdainful attacks on family. I don’t buy into that white guilt crap for one second, but when I see what the dominant ideology is in western Europe I almost feel ashamed to be European (genetically).
I’m almost to the point where I won’t feel sorry for Europe when the Muslims take over, but even though I don’t live there it’s a loss to me as well. The Muslims will destroy western culture and erase our history. They will tear down what is left of the Roman buildings to make goat pens, and they will turn the ancient cathedrals and churches into mosques. They will totally trample on everything that is there. Why should they care? It’s no their culture or history, it’s just booty taken from infidels who were stupid enough to let them come in and take over.
The Psychic
This has to do with the women who were kidnapped. So apparently some “psychic” told Amanda Berry’s mother that Amanda was dead, and now there is a backlash against the psychic for making an incorrect prediction:
Today, Brown faced backlash on social media for her incorrect prediction about Amanda Berry. It is unclear whether she has helped to solve a crime with her psychic predictions.
Really? Why? No one should be mad at the psychic. Anyone with an IQ above retarded should be able to realize that those people are hucksters. If you decide to spend money on a product that is overtly and outlandishly ridiculous (like say… ”dry water” which is acually a bucket full of air), then any dissatisfaction you feel later on is only a product of your own poor judgment. You should have known better. What kind of an idiot goes to buy “dry water”? A basic understanding of reality indicates that there can be no such thing. The same is true for “psychics.” There is no way of talking to the dead, and no way you can see something if you aren’t there. There is no “out of body experience” other than death.
I don’t understand why that person was ever taken seriously in the first place, why she was invited on a talk show, or how those people are able to make a living doing that crap. The fact that they are able to make living off of that disturbs me because that means there are lots of really stupid people out there. They are so fake, and the things they claim to be able to do are not humanly possible.
Yes I know the psychic was wrong, but all they do is spout out guesses, and any time you guess there is a possibility of being wrong. If you spout out enough guesses frequently enough some of them may even be right. It’s not like she just lied this time, she lied all the time. That much should be obvious to anyone with half a brain. Maybe people are mad at her for making a dishonest living, but it was obvious that she was fake from the beginning. People like that cannot thrive in the absence of abundant stupidity and impaired cognitive ablities.
I wonder if people are mad because they realized that they got suckered, or if they are mad because this has shattered their faith in “psychics.”

As Christians we must kindly re-term such inane, ingrained stupidity as a mere “blind spot.”
Hawking is a clever fool.
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - Do you think I’m being too harsh?
@soccerdadforlife - Man, talk about being backwards. You know I hate that whole ideology that seems to be running amok in western Europe. Everything that’s good is bad, and everything that’s bad is good. Not to mention their understanding and knowledge of history is entirely wrong.
Stephen Hawking is one of those academics who, much like celebrities, do not receive a normal amount of criticism from other people. They are put on a god-like pedestal and so they erroneously think their great knowledge in one arena can be transferred to another. This is a sign of deficits in both his character and the quality of the culture. A physicist is not interchangeable with a political scientist, a historian, or a theologian. So why is he given credit for assuming such quackery?
The parallel between the NATIONAL SOCIALIST GERMAN WORKERS’ PARTY and today’s western culture of hate for itself is unmistakable. The reason why statists of all sorts hate Jews is because individuals of the Jewish race have consistently shown the impressive power of the individual. They are a THREAT to the credibility of tyranny because of their unprecedented success, even in the face of unbelievable oppression.
The problem with so many Atheists is they choose idols to worship in lieu of a God. I am an Atheist and I do not understand why so many people have this tendency when unchecked. My only source of worship is my life, much as Rand advocated. Anyway, that psychic crap is pretty funny and very true. I have considered opening up a tanning salon, or at least working for one to profit off of other people’s stupidity. Capitalism allows for self-destruction of stupid people; voluntary social darwinism. I dig that. Even the 6% sales tax doesn’t deter many. I guess it’s sadistic of me but I think I would find great joy in such a business. (:
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - I think there’s a movement afoot to make “2Harsh” your middle name.
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - Well, they have abandoned God, truth, the Bible, etc., so why is their slide into foolishness surprising?
actually, this makes me love Hawking all the more.
@Facetiouseloquence - I recommended your comment because I agreed with your observation that Hawking doesn’t receive enough scrutiny from the media. They just fawn over him. I’m not as impressed with his thinking.
Oh, as regards Jews, there are plenty of poor Jews who haven’t done so well on the East Coast. Ask the blog owner about Jewish failures–he has a laundry list (genetic problems, a tendency for them to be liberals, etc.). Who was the guy who went to prison for fraud–Bernard Madoff? Wasn’t he Jewish? And didn’t he defraud a lot of Jews? If Jews are so smart, why did he defraud them for so long? Jews tend to not be as attractive as gentiles (Germans, for example). They tend to not excel in athletics. They are more than twice as likely to be homosexual than the general population.
I can also get on my pro-Jew horse. Jews have a higher IQ than average. They have a higher average income. God chose them from among the tribes of the earth. Jesus was a Jew, as were all the apostles. Jews rank high among Nobel Prize winners in science. Etc.
Whether Jews are exceptional depends on the measuring stick you use.
But if you believe that Jews are exceptional, why are so many liberal? Are they clever fools?
@soccerdadforlife - I implied that there are an unusually high number of exceptional individuals with Jewish ethnic backgrounds, not that there are not “flaws” among the race, and I must say I disagree highly with some of those you mentioned. Regardless, I have never been witness to evidence or even claims of Jews being more commonly homosexual. Where did you hear that?
It is hard to say why so many Jews are so liberal, but it’s pretty disconcerting. There’s a notable amount of guilt among the Jewish race, perhaps even stronger than that which exists among whites in the west.
@Facetiouseloquence - social scientist studies homosexuality
I don’t understand why whites in the West would have guilt. Are you referring to the mistreatment of Indians? That occurred initially in the East and South, actually. The Trail of Tears began in North Carolina. European settlers pushed the Indian tribes out of their area in the Northeast.
I read that the Scots have the highest per capita ranking among Nobel Prize winners and the link shows that they also have a very low incidence of homosexuality. I suspect that they also have above average income, tho if you compare them with other Europeans, their income might not be exceptional. Strange that the Chinese have a high incidence of homosexuality.
For exceptionalism in political philosophy, I have to recommend the English in the years prior to their catching the disease of socialism (which was formulated by Marx, who was [cough-Jewish-cough].
I take a perverse delight in poking fun at idols or anything that causes people to puff themselves up.
When it comes to Jewish intellectualism, I abhor Rand (sorry) but rely heavily upon the epistemology of testimony from the Law of Moses, which, of course, was given to the Jews. I also find David Berlinski to be a riot and read all his stuff that I can find. There are quite a few conservative Jewish intellectuals whom I read, but unfortunately they don’t seem to have much influence among their fellow Jews. :
I don’t buy the guilt as an excuse. Why should Jews have guilt any more than anybody else? And with a sound mind, guilt shouldn’t push people to irrationality, including liberalism. No, I think that Jewish liberalism can be ascribed to the worship of the govt. as savior. Traditionally, Europeans relied on the church to help the needy. Jews are either apathetic towards the church or hostile, but they see a need for helping the needy, so they look for another institution to substitute for the church (i.e., the govt.). I think that’s the main reason for Jews being liberal. They are, with more than a few exceptions, socialist idolaters. Kind of ironic, given the Law of Moses’ commandments to abhor idolatry, isn’t it?
@Facetiouseloquence - Well said. Yea it’s funny how they think that their self hatred somehow nullifies everything else they have in common with the Nazis, which is really everything other than self hatred.
I wonder if all these pompous liberal Islamophiles would still be a fan if they had to actually live under Sharia? Where drinking and listening to music could potentially be a death sentence.
Yes, true about self destruction. They should be able to waste their money on whatever stupidity they want, but I could not be less sympathetic when they find out it’s a hoax. I would laugh so hard if you opened up a tanning salon.
@ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove - Is there really? Have people been talking/complaining about me?
@Facetiouseloquence - I never heard of Jewish guilt before but it could explain those idiots who go out and protest against Israel with the Muslims. I think that hating one’s own people is a serious psychological flaw, and it ought to be considered a mental disorder. I wonder what it is that pushes people over that edge? It has to be related to issues of self worth, probably projected onto a macro scale.
@flapper_femme_fatale - That’s about as surprising as finding snot in a tissue after I blow my nose, during allergy season.
@soccerdadforlife - Dude white guilt is a huge problem which is being used as fuel for the left wing agenda. It’s not based on anything rational, and it is perpetuated by brainwashing and browbeating. The idea is that all white people share in the guilt of the white Imperialists of the colonial period (English, Spanish, Dutch, French, Portegues) and that everything the white colonizers did was racially motivated and had negative results. Of course that is revisionist history, but revisionism is the dominant view now. Also, the idea is that all white people share in the guilt of the Nazis (which is really big over in Europe, even among the countries that Hitler attacked such as England). The ideology is bolstered by such notions that only white people can be racist, and that multiculturalism is an improvement. It’s all a house of cards, but it’s the dominant view thee days, and as a result many white men have lost their nuts so to speak.
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - Oh, the anti-colonialism ideology. What if you don’t buy into that ideology? So why should Jews buy into that ideology?
@soccerdadforlife - I don’t buy into the cultural Marxist anti-white ideology. I have never seen anyone talk about “Jewish Guilt” before, but I think that what she said is basically correct, because I have seen it manifested before. If you read the article I linked to you can see that there are some Israeli Jews behind the boycott of Israel. There was also that guy a few months back, a former IDF man, who tried to defect to Gaza by going through Egypt. Israel took his passport away for his own protection, so when he got into Egypt he was seized and incarcerated by the Egyptian government. He’s probably being tortured.
Also there are those left wing Jewish people that get out and protest WITH the Arabo-Muzzies in he US. I have seen videos of that on youtube. Stupid Jewish people who for some reason identify more with the enemies of their people than their own people. I cannot understand why they are like that or relate to the thought process, because my mind is incapable of conceptualizing collective guilt. I am far too much of an individualist. My guess is that you are equally incapable of understanding that concept, but I THINK it is related to Stockholm syndrome. The proper term for hatred of one’s own race and ethnicity is “oikophobia” which means “fear of self.” It is the opposite of xenophobia, but just as ugly.
@Ambrosius_Augustus_Rex - Nah, I think that tribal pressures are dominant here. Jews bought into socialism in a big way back in the 19th century and socialists developed anti-colonialism as a method of undermining the societies of their enemies. It’s merely a tribal thing in my view. The young are easily manipulated and socialists are behind the manipulation of the Israeli youth. In northeast Jewish society, liberalism/socialism is the “correct” political philosophy and you better go along if you want to get the group benefits (access to money for business). It’s just like Hollywood.
