Louis Pasteur was a lying fraud who tortured animals for fun.

>>16168327
Based choice.

Probably Richard Feynman or Carl Sagan. Not because of their great scientific contributions, but because they were cool as fuck. Ranked purely by greatness I'd say someone like Darwin, Newton, or Aristotle.

>>16168327
Germaphobia is a disease

Probably Robert Koch. Discovered the cause of tuberculosis and was a weeaboo.

How come you can't explain whats wrong with racism?
I sure hope you're not just irrationally bigoted against people who look out for their own kind. Not everyone is as self centered as you are, some people care about their families and their race, not just themselves.

>>16172811
>some people care about their families
yes
>and their race
lol no what a bitch
Anyway, fuck off back to pol where you belong, election tourist permanewfag.

>>16172914
Since you can't explain whats wrong with racism, how come you presume that racism is an irrational belief?
Is your dislike for racism something thats strictly an emotional urge for you?
Your race is your extended family, why do you hate them? Why do you favor outsiders over your own kind?

>Over time, the UNH scientist [Chanda] has escalated her grievances into increasingly dubious accusations of scholarly misconduct, misogyny, and homophobia, as well as entirely unsubstantiated remarks about sexual harassment.
>Additionally, Quillette has obtained copies of complaints against Prescod-Weinstein recently submitted to UNH by three other scholars. Among these materials is a database cataloguing over 50,000 of the tweets that Prescod-Weinstein posted during the five-year period ending in September 2023.
>Taken together, the sources reviewed by Quillette cover dozens of vilification campaigns waged by Prescod-Weinstein, beginning in 2015 and continuing to the present day.
>In some cases, these attacks were rooted in contentious social-justice issues playing out in the fields of astronomy and physics.
>But others seem to have been sparked by nothing more than glancing social-media disagreements, jokes, minor rebukes, or a targeted individual’s failure to take what Prescod-Weinstein deemed to be suitable notice of her accomplishments.
>While most of Prescod-Weinstein’s documented targets are scientists, others include a reporter, an art-history researcher, an early childhood educator,

This chick is a fucking joke, holy shit. All that Jewish blood did was make her a prolific slanderer.

who was the harvard dishonesty researcher that was caught falsifying her data?

Hey retard, here's a hint, you don't choose your race.

>>16178697
People don't choose to be paranoid schizophrenics, but we still tend to avoid them in the name of personal safety.

>>16178713
That would still depend on the individual schizophrenic and mental health is inherently different from race, so your analogy fails on two fronts.

>>16178128
>>16178697
Still no explanation for why it's bad. Just monkeys flinging shit lmao.

>>16178730
Imagine you're bleeding out on the street. The hospital that's treating you intentionally gives you inferior service because you are of your particular race and they don't want to race resources on your race. You die as a result. Clear enough for you?

>>16178734
Oh okay, so bad for interiors but not for me. The morality of racism is subjective in the absolute. Thank you for your clarification.

>>16178726
>That would still depend on the individual schizophrenic
And yet you would still behave differently around someone if you knew they were schizophrenic, and treat claims they make differently, out of a natural sense of self-preservation, especially if you didn't know them well or at all.
>mental health is inherently different from race
Different, but analogous. Neither are chosen, both impact the person, both SHOULD impact how you approach that person when you don't know them well or at all.

>>16178740
Oh you don't care until it happens to you because you're an NPC lacking in basic imagination and/or empathy neurons. Thank you for the clarification.

>>16178742
>And yet you would still behave differently around someone if you knew they were schizophrenic
You don't know shit about me. Don't assume how I'd behave.
>but analogous
*Disanalogous
>both impact the person
You don't demonstrate HOW they impact the person. Both your examples break down on the general level and are still case-by-case for how we treat the person.

>>16178743
I mean you really championed the subjectivity of it. Read your post again and tell me you didn't. I'll be waiting for an objective reason why racism is bad.

>>16178750
Okay I didn't.

>>16178749
>You don't know shit about me. Don't assume how I'd behave.
Okay, so you just have no sense of self-preservation and would approach any stranger exactly the same way even if you've been explicitly told they suffer from a debilitating mental illness that makes them a danger to themselves and others?

>>16178754
Why do you always think only in generalities? Let me say it a third time since you can't read: it depends on the individual case and what symptoms they show that dictate how we go about dealing with that person.

>>16178751
Still waiting on the objective reason why it's bad.

>>16178761
You got it.

>>16178763
Where is it?

>>16178765
The post giving an example showing that it's immoral to cause someone to die because of their race.

>>16178768
So your only reason is morality, a subjective abstraction?

>>16178768
Can you point me to an experiment that will prove the absolute laws of morality?

>>16178759
I can't tell if you're just being disingenuous or if you're actually this stupid. We're not talking about some clinical setting where you get access to a complete medical history and can debate for a few hours about the man's behavioral tendencies before choosing a correct course of action in how to interact with him. We're talking about some guy you come across out in the world and the only thing you know about him is that he has a dangerous mental illness.

>>16168270
Me. While I'm not famous or even highly cited, I'm still my own favorite scientist.

>>16178782
I'm still waiting. Where can I find info on objective morality?

>>16178128
racism will win

Myself and those who called out covid jabs for being rushed garbage.

>>16178697
you don't choose to be ugly either but nothing wrong with making fun of uggos

>>16178768
but the immorality here isn't the race part, it's the causing someone to die part. Denying someone medical treatment because they're a chud would be just as bad

>>16176784
Twum never did any of that.

>>16179237
Still waiting on the evidence proving objective morality.

>>16179237

There is nothing wrong with racism. Only morons are not racist.

Racism has pros and cons. If one group actually is significantly different than another, then it could be useful to create social norms and heuristics on how to deal with that group. The downside is that it can lead to false positives, such as assuming a black nerd is retarded and violent just because ghetto blacks are more likely to be. Or that dark skinned Brahmins are the same as Africans simply based on color.

Ideologies like religion have tried to extend the concept of the in-group to be larger and larger, so as to reduce inter-group violence and increase cooperation. Christianity especially is known for its values of charity, mercy, forgiveness, salvation. These try to give people second chances and reduce the incidence of blood feuds between groups, leading to a 'brotherhood of man.' In this sense they try to make the meaningful difference between people based on values or culture, rather than physical appearance. In terms of game theory this strategy worked better for multiethnic empires, as memes spread much faster than genes.

Since there are genetic differences between ethnic groups, and that may explain some percentage of the variance in behavior, it's not entirely baseless to be 'racist' to some degree. However it's possible for culture and upbringing to supercede genetic predispositions in large part. Perhaps the more reasonable future position will be to recognize there are average differences, not expect perfect equality of outcomes, but still give people a chance to prove their merit.
