This site is such bullshit. I constructively participate in the debate and my opinions are constantly downvoted because you bugmen can't handle real discussion.

fuck off.

They would also survive a beating one day per week. I would prefer that their life is optimized for the good.

I disagree, and I’m worried that this view will prevent adequate nutrition for children more and more frequently (meatless Monday etc). The next step is then preventing adequate nutrition for myself from special taxes or regulations on meat.
The bioavailability of protein from lentils is about 60%. So your cherrypicked comparison has about 50% of the useful protein content of beef.

Macronutrients are not the entire picture. If you look into micronutrients you’ll find all of the essentials in beef, some are not found at all in plant sources.

Be careful about all fda recommendations, they were heavily influenced by lobbying from the sugar / grain / cereal industry and are not being updated in step with science.

Your original comment was 100% feels so it's interesting that this is your response.
Nothing is in the same ballpark as red meat in terms of nutrition density and bioavailability.
India has the highest rates of depression and one of the highest rates of heart disease, I posit this is because their exceptionally low intake of nutrition from animals.

Hong Kong, with the highest consumption of meat per capita, has the highest life expectancy in the world.

I eat burgers for my health. Often with no bun or fries. The more of my calories come from beef, the better I feel.

Libertarians don't generally attribute poor people's situation to laziness. Conscientiousness would be a closer approximation, but still pretty bad.
Potatoes are a complete, if poor, protein source. You'll live. For a long while at least.

What does a carefully chosen straw man IQ question (may never have appeared in an IQ test in history, afaik) have to do with the fact that no sub saharan african society had developed the wheel before colonialism?

I did not read your mind. I summarized your actions. I never assumed intent or motivation. You are the one who did those things. Projection.

Perhaps that assumption you made that you apparently don't believe was a completely made up figment of your imagination, which is what my comment illustrates.

Well, of course. Problem is that, apparently, we're doing the best we can.

This kind of misallocation is really the only thing keeping velocity of money high enough to sustain the economy

You mention this ad hominem so you can extrapolate beliefs that may be completely fabricated.
Re:IQ rates are dropping in many developed countries on Wednesday May 22, 2019 @04:12PM (#19984972)
so you’re saying the value of bridges is a “social construct”.
Re:IQ rates are dropping in many developed countries on Wednesday May 22, 2019 @03:26PM (#19984579)
Why are you making all of these assumptions?
Re:IQ rates are dropping in many developed countries on Wednesday May 22, 2019 @03:16PM (#19984487)
culture dependent like the wheel.
Re:IQ rates are dropping in many developed countries on Wednesday May 22, 2019 @03:15PM (#19984468)
yes, all those pesky mathematics involved in constructing things like, well, buildings, or the wheel. Very much socially constructed.
Re:IQ rates are dropping in many developed countries on Wednesday May 22, 2019 @03:11PM (#19984446)
IQ is the best test we have to predict economic success.

If you trust terrible epidemiological surveys, sure.

Yea, that'll help those kids!

You say saturated fat and cholesterol like they are a bad thing. No, I do enjoy producing my own natural hormones. You may want to revisit the science of both. Much of the negative press has been funded by the sugar (grain) industry.
I think you should look into the accounting of those sources. So much of what you posted is totally irrelevant to cattle ranching, particularly in the United States. You’re just throwing a bunch of spaghetti at the wall, “look, muh data”

Unless you consider that those grasses and rainwater used by the cow would’ve been completely ignored if the cow wasn’t there. And no, humans wouldn’t be able to get energy from those grasses without the cow.
What about the fact that if you search: "The donald reddit" then reddit.com/r/the_donald is not in the first page (or 10) of results?

edit: I do see it first if I search "donald reddit"

hopefully we change or enforce h1-b so that it fulfills its purpose to bring skills we don’t have.
And black identity is detached from black supremacist ideology? In fact, logic is useful in evaluating the world. All of it.
So you've established that it's desirable for black people to be proud of their blackness.

Is it desirable for white people to be proud of their whiteness? If you allow for one of these and not the other, you'd be a racist.
