He's a white supremacist. He means black people. Note the bold.
In October of that year, he responded to a video of people in a neighborhood in Atlanta, saying: “When a population gets feral, a little snip snip keeps things in control. Could offer incentives (Air Jordans, etc.).”
“Where do these population reduction conspiracies come from? All I see is trash multiplying,” he wrote in January 2023.
In May of that year, Beattie wrote on X that “It's not politically correct to say, but low-IQ, low-impulse control populations lack higher reasoning and moral faculties---they require strict corporal punishment and threat of violence to function properly within a society. Instead of anarcho-tyranny, we need Singapore for the dumb and violent, and Sweden for the more elevated.”
How does this interact with male doctors' right to deny women elective sterilizations based on their hypothetical future husband's desire for a kid?
The women are demonstrating too much intelligence (and independence) by seeking control of their own bodies
The US is a fascist state. They are enacting Nazi policies such as:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_unworthy_of_life
RFKs autism list will lead to life unworthy of life.
More proof that their alarmism about declining birth rates is bullshit
Bold emphasis is mine
But idea of offering** feral populations **financial incentives for voluntary sterilization is completely taboo.
Wow, just wow.
When a population gets feral, a little snip snip keeps things in control. Could offer incentives (Air Jordans, etc.).
Sure... some new sneaks for never being able to procreate? Sounds legit (heavy /s obviously)
I have a suspicion where this is being aimed at:
It's not politically correct to say, but low-IQ, low-impulse control populations lack higher reasoning and moral faculties - they require strict corporal punishment and threat of violence to function properly within a society.
It's the people RFK is targeting - people with Autism, ADHD, other neurodivergent conditions, the physically and mentally disabled. Cull the ones who are already "diseased" and leave the healthier ones to live one and procreate. At least that's my suspicion here - basically they're pushing the discourse towards an acceptance of some form of eugenics. It's terrifying.
The point in the last quote - 'to function properly within a society' is really a veiled form of saying - 'you will work until you die in whatever way we see fit'.
There's a similar push in the UK to get disabled people into any job, seemingly regardless of suitability, workplace accommodations (despite there being legal requirements to make such things) - and the way this is being done is to effectively penalise them financially by sanctioning the disability allowances, refusing PIP (Personal Independence Payment) and forcing those with lifelong conditions to undergo a full review every year. This pretty much can starve out someone into finding a way to live that means the Government pays less and the quality of life the person has is drastically reduced owing to the various stressors inflicted on them. The whole thing is a shitshow and is being argued about a lot at the moment in our Government parties.
Can disabled people work? For sure, and many do. Can all disabled people work? No, but the Government is going to make damn sure that you at least try, and if you fail, then find another job cause we ain't supporting you now we know you can work regardless of how effective you are... From a Govt statement:
We’re determined to fix the broken benefits system as part of our Plan for Change by reforming the welfare system and delivering proper support to help people get into work and get on at work, so we can get Britain working and deliver our ambition of an 80% employment rate.
In other words, to "function properly within a society".
...did you read the same text i did?..that was f*cking code-speak for urban black populations...
Thought i was reading the onion for a second
So he doesn't want a future generation of Republican voters?
So I know you're joking but I want to make the point so there's no mistake from you or anyone scrolling by in what this guy means.
He means black people. Like the whole of this statement is targeted at black people in the US. Dude is a hard-r neonazi.
Nazi fucks busting out the calipers?
"You got a vasectomy because it was forced on you for having low IQ. I got a vasectomy because I refuse to subject another human to this batshit world. We are not the same."
Intelligence isn't genetic. Its determined by large set of environmental factors as well as societal ones
It's genetic and environmental (I'd argue that societal is a subset of environment - the society you live in is part of your environment).
IQ is far from a perfect measure for intelligence, but it has a high degree of inheritability - up to 80%.
However
As soon as malnutrition comes into play, IQ is automatically severely diminished. Add in all the other environmental factors too, and - it turns out we do have a lot more we can do to increase peoples intelligence, before resorting to eugenics.
The irony. I bet most MAGA have sub-median IQ. But apart from that:
That stance of mass-sterilization is quite a hefty turnaround from "people should have more children", which we heard just a few months ago.
I don't want to be a doomer, but the economic prospects are bad. Lots of people already struggle to make end's meet, and if the mass layoffs of white collar workers due to AI are real, it will be even worse. Notice that it doesn't matter whether you think that AI can replace people, it only matters whether companies think that AI can replace people. Now, having children costs a lot of money, at least $100K, depending on where you live, and i understand people being reluctant about having children.
I also think that it's politician's job to improve the living conditions of the people, and GOP might actually for once be doing its job if it starts educating people about the socio-economic implications of having kids.
I also advocate for UBI (universal basic income), but the way i see it today, there's a high likelyhood that it will come, but will be too little to actually cover cost-of-living costs. I.e., it might be a "support", providing $400/month no-strings-attached and it would definitely improve the living conditions of many people, especially in low-income households. But it would still not solve all problems.
The soap boxes, ballot boxes, and jury boxes didnt work.
the Nazis are laughing that you're calling them Nazis, all while they're making plans to kill you.
So, they'll start with red state Trump voters, yes?
So maga folks. Lol
FASCISM STATS +1
Is this why they're getting a list of neurodivergent people together? Not that that has anything to do with IQ, but merely their perceived warped reality of it.
So they gonna set up radiation booths at rallies?
