Chinese kids want to become astronauts while kids in the US and the UK want to become vloggers, according to poll

submitted by EthnocratArcheofuturist from self.debatealtright

This poll says everything you need to know about why China has a future and why the West is rotting. This is 100% a result of liberalism.

kids aspire to be their heroes and idols

This is what happens when an entire generation of children are allowed to spend all their time sitting indoors and playing on ipadds or laptops. Gen Z was ruined by their lazy, neglectful parents.

In the USA you can make 10x as much money and respect being a video faggot vs astronaut.

I think that's the entire point of the post in the first place. The children of declining -- won't use 'dying' like Ethno did -- societies think only of money while the children of emerging and vigorous societies think of things like civic duty, exploration and service to a good greater than their bank balance.

[–]EthnocratArcheofuturist[S] 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

It's because liberalism doesn't believe in the greater good. Liberals think the greater good will always lead to totalitarianism. Greg Johnson has explained this beautifully.

It's the whole point of postmodernism existing in the first place, modernism was about the unifying myth; The Authoritarian Personality said the unifying myth leads to meanie bad guys therefore we need postmodernism to socially engineer everyone into being deracinated and then we also need to destroy all community bonds. It's pretty much out in the open they say they're doing this to intentionally destroy our societies and pretty much no one talks about it.

The noble savage. None of them are turning down wealth, they probably just don't see a chance to get it.

Math and science and physics and whatnot are important and all, but come on, little autistic Jimmy down the street isn't going to be a rocket scientist. Not just anyone is suited for any job. We're not losing anything because he wants to be a youtuber.

Slow Jimmy needs a dream too.

Money, yes. Respect?

Maybe respect isnt the right word. Recognition is better.

Also, there is basically no real opportunity in the US to be an astronaut anymore.

They have a 1 in a billion chance of becoming an astronaut. Yet a one in a thousand of being a successful streamer... So which seems like the more attainable goal?

[–]aukofthecovenantWhite man with eyes 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I don't think children know anything of the chances, nor would they be dissuaded by them anyway. How many little girls want to be princesses, for example?

What's the result in Russia and continental Europe? Anglos are a dying civilization.

    he's right though, space is fake and gay. space is just harry potter for boys.

    Not sure if you're being serious or not.

    [–]MarkimusNational Socialist 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

    space is obviously real but the rest is serious, space is gay af

    I couldn't disagree more. Space exploration is the ultimate expression of our European Faustian spirit. It's what we Europeans do. We go further than anyone else. The Moon landing was the greatest achievement of all time, and we have Nazi rocket scientists to thank for that by the way.

    [–]aukofthecovenantWhite man with eyes 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

    The distinction lies in the motivation. Putting people in space just to say "We did it, bitches!" is fake and gay because the goal is mere social approval. Putting people in space as a real foundation for expanding the species beyond Earth is actually meaningful.

    However, the latter needs long-term investment, serious scientific prowess, and an outward-thinking culture. We liberal democrats can't have that...

    That's not what actually happened.

    No, but it's how a lot of people today perceive it.

    Tossing a rock at your enemies from 254 miles up could change lives.

    The West has a tradition of mocking the "nerds" and scientific achievements aren't supposed to be glamorous. It's a pity it was different many years ago.

    Britain gave Newton a burial like a king. Scientists were always held in high regard in the West. It's ironic that the aristocracy respected scientists more than the contemporary bourgeois bugmen.

    Anyway, becoming an astronaut has more to do with exploration.

    The West has a tradition of mocking the "nerds"

    Does it? Or is that a Hollywood trope where nerds are a stand-in for, well, you know...

    [–]asterias 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    Bright students at school are routinely bullied by the rest for being "nerds", I don't think it's because of the jews or because of hollywood but because of our own fault.

    Don't most education districts in the US have mixed ability classes? You have the studious A+ student who is put in the same class as disruptive IQ90s who can just about write their own name and don't give a shit about their education.

    This is the problem. The Labour party in England experimented with this in the 1990s and 2000s by closing down most grammar schools (basically high schools for the top 20% of academically gifted people, mostly single sex) and sending everyone (except those who had parents with money of course, they could always go private) to 'comprehensive' schools with mixed-ability classes. It was a disaster. Many schools abandoned the practice.

    Education should be segregated by ability. Bright kids, whether they're 'nerds' or not, should not be dragged down by low IQ troglodytes who want to piss around.

    who do you blame? the parents. parents in the US are utter garbage. we need a 1 child policy, we're really breeding quantity over quality.

    [–]EthnocratArcheofuturist[S] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (7 children)

    Oh come on, the influence of the media and academia is far more damaging.

    [–]EvilNick 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (6 children)

    but in the end the parents are the ones letting the kids consume the media, and not questioning what the teachers are actually teaching their kids. Usually because shit parents today are too busy consuming influential media themselves.

    [–]EthnocratArcheofuturist[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

    That's never going to happen. Parents shouldn't be like North Korea. The state needs to be like North Korea. We need to control the media and academia.

    [–]EvilNick 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

    have fun with your starvation, how is actually watching your OWN spawn being like north korea. asking the state to watch them for you, yeah not lazy at all. the only thing I think should be regulated is breeding. Sorry you should need a permit to have kids.

      what are you talking about theres plenty of very easy tech to control what your kids can watch on any device. if everything were to collapse you would eventually just be replacing one propaganda with another.

        if they can't use their device they'll go over to their friends house and use theirs.

        okay then their friends parents are shit parent lol, whats the difference.

        Let them send Chinese people into space, it's a waste of money when you can send robots for a fraction of the cost.
