HIs post is basically incoherent, but I think I can decipher the general spirit of his objection and convert it into a sane(ish) argument: if you think about the timeline recursively branching out to account for all the possibilities since the beginning of the universe, the number of parallel universes that that should exist right now is absolutely incomprehensible, and the odds of you ending up in this particular one are so incomprehensibly small that it's essentially impossible.

that argument really doesn't make any sense though; that's like saying "the odds of you being the person you are instead of one of the other 7 billion people in the world is so incomprehensibly small that you obviously must not be you, occam's razor bitch." there's nothing all that interesting or crazy about their being trillions of other universes of varying similarity to our own

No, it's more like saying that they are so vanishingly small that you must be you for a reason, except in this case, it's more compelling, the odds of you being in this particular universe (if the many-worlds wank is correct) is essentially 0.

and the odds of someone being the mega millions winner is essentially 0 and yet there's still a winner every time. it's not like just because the chance of somebody being a winner is basically 0 means there's no winner. the argument a misuse of statistics

Call me back when the same person wins it a quadrillion times in a row, and then we can discuss how that occurrence was nearly inevitable compared to what you're proposing.

Why do science nerds always smell so bad? Is personal hygiene against the scientific method or something? Do science nerds think they're exempt from cleanliness for some reason? Are scientists "too smart" to brush their teeth? You have to go to the horse races on a weekday to find ppl with worse breath, or maybe a homeless camp. Science ppl have halitosis that could be weaponized and they never shut up talking about their escapist soience fantasies so that compounds the problem. greasy disgusting smelly cringoids

The average IQ of a country matters little unless they can advance the theoretical knowledge behind science, that's where countries get their real power, as that's what gives them advancements other countries don't have.

For instance Russia may not be very smart on average, but their science was dominated by Jews for a long time, which is what gave them the ability to compete with the US in STEM in the first place. China absolutely sucks as science is the thing, though I will admit they have some interesting engineering projects like the north south water transfer, but they don't "compete" in the field of STEM so much as they just listen from the sidelines.

The fact that traditional gender roles aren't as essential to survival in a world where men and women both sit in the same cubicles.
Gender has become a much grayer concept, to the point where it's now a seemingly interchangeable cloak anyone can wear.
Or so it seems at least.
The reality is gender roles will ALWAYS been needed or our species will go extinct, no amount of automation and artificiality will change that.
And it's not just the species but the individual that dies. You can't undo eons of sociobiological programming in one or two generations.
That's why these people will never be more than faulty outliers incapable of equilibrium between their body and mind (ie. mentally ill).
