Dawkins thread - the squel
Dawkins thread continued from >>16813862

Rare to see a topic so popular on /sci/ so it'd be a shame to just let it die because it hit the bump limit.

Ok here’s how I see it. Dawkins is right. I support trans rights but saying gender isn’t binary is political and not correct.
For all of human history. In 99% of all human societies. Gender has been male and female and it’s not a social construct like race. Everyone used to agree there was Male and Female. Maybe intersex but that’s between X and Y chromosomes. Intersex doesn’t come about from a Z chromosome.
That doesn’t mean I’m against trans right. Sure be yourself, but don’t change science.

>What causes people to think sex isn’t binary?
They're anarchists, simple as. First anarchists rebelled against the order of the absolute kings and the pope, when they replaced them with constitutional monarchies and heretical churches then they also rebelled against them and removed religion and monarchy altogether, then they rebelled against belief in God and whatever form of government they had reached, now they're rebelling against nature and reality itself, ultimately to end up rebelling against life by killing themselves.

They don't actually believe what they're saying, they're rebelling against reality by telling you that something false is true, because they need it to be true to them, because nature and reality are wrong, so they must be corrected, until they conclude that life itself is wrong and must be corrected by death.

Gender is just cultural foreplay—everything leading up to sex that isn't actually sex. It has no value to society beyond making sex easier and more natural. Gender divorced from sex isn't just dumb and pointless, it actually makes sex worse and less natural.

Trans people exist and you can objectively show that their brains are different with CT scans. The problem isn't the existence of trans people the problem is that they can self-affirm their gender. Before it became trendy to transition, the data showed that less than 2 in 50 people who sought help for gender dysphoria were actually trans and the rest had other underlying issue and their dysphoria could be treated more effectively in a different way. Then self-affirmation became the talking point and the 48 out of 50 started mutilating themselves for no reason.
As far as what Dawkins said it's true but a bit outdated. Gender truly isn't binary and is a spectrum but it's extremely skewed to either male or female and the ones who fall in the middle are rare. Gametes aren't the only way to determine gender.
The problem is that there is no consensus on how gender is supposed to be defined. Trans activists say it's solely based on brain gender. Biologists say there are multiple criteria but the nuance is that 99% of population fits the bill on all of them. But what do you do for the 1%?
It is simultaneously true that many fetishists hijacked the trans movement and that conservatives are vilifying trans people for political gain.
The most annoying thing is that we had a proper system for this - the Other gender. People understood that this is simply an unfortunate thing that happens and let these people live in peace but that ended where parties from both ends of the political spectrum decided to weaponize it.
It's a really complex issue and it's difficult to please everyone and come up with a definition of gender that won't upset anyone. Now that the problem is extremely politicized you can forget about anyone arguing about it in good faith.
For most intents and purposes, yeah there are males and females. It's a fact. But there's a reason why we'd want to rigorously define this in accordance with modern biology. Don't dismiss the topic as stupid or solved science.

Gender has no value to humanity beyond acting as a dimorphic catalyst for reproductive sex. Whether that dimorphism can or can't be bled out on a gradient (it obviously can, as thousands of years of Western art will attest) doesn't matter at all. It's like saying someone is on the eagle spectrum because they have an aquiline nose or on the cat spectrum because they have a feline aloofness and playfulness. Have fun writing esoterica about it but it has no structural importance to society whatsoever.

Sex is when penis goes in vagina and baby comes out. Gender is the social norms that are supposed to help that happen. Like when a male bird of paradise does a bird dance. That's gender. Sex is after that when the sperm goes in the cloaca and makes an egg. Transing your gender is both antigender and antisex. A really narcissistic, asshole, art-qua-art thing to do, which is why it flourishes again and again throughout history as a coda to periods of discipline, prosperity, and boomering. Hope this helps.

Imagine if perfect transitioning was possible. Whenever, wherever. You are a man and you take a pill and turn into a female version of yourself. It is almost like magic. You lose every secondary male characteristic and gain female characteristics including womb and ovaries etc. Similarly a female may do the same and gain functional male genitalia and whatever comes with it.
In short, this pill turns you from XY to XX and vice versa.
Trans people would become obsolete. Thus yes, there are two sexes. It is very simple.
If such a pill existed, these people who call themselves trans would find another word to either victimize themselves or to slap a unique label onto themselves. Like "I have transitioned 100 times, I am a centransitioner." It is all about that. They are just inventing new labels to feel important as they have no skill or anything of value to offer. I am not saying trans people don't have any value. I am saying those who don't are inventing these bullshit terminologies to feel special than the rest.

>trans rights
No such thing. Everyone has the same rights in an ideal society. There are no separate "classes" of rights (especially not for mentally ill men wearing dresses)

The gay "rights" and trans "rights" and women's "rights" etc are all new rights they invent because they want new privileges. Such as...

Gays have the same rights as everyone else: marry someone of the opposite sex. They don't get to invent a new right to marry someone of the same sex etc.

Mentally ill troon men wearing dresses have the same rights as everyone else: use the bathroom that corresponds to your sex/gender (same thing) assigned at conception. They don't get to invent new rights to use whatever bathroom their perverted feelings desire.

"Women's rights" gets more complicated because 100 years ago they actually didn't have the same rights as men. But that no longer applies. Anyone screeching "womens rights" today is just trying to invent privileges for women, like having their accusations in a courtroom or an HR mediation have more weight than a man's etc.

>a social construct like race
Also wrong. We can easily classify races with DNA and even bone structure. If a construct correlates with observable scientific phenomena to the point it has strong predictive power then it is not a social construct by definition. To steer my wall of text back to the topic: Dawkins of course acknowledges race is real pic related. He's still a faggot though and pretends it doesn't matter.

They’re insane anon. They think because you can deconstruct the human body into its base parts its constructed form doesn’t exist. They will say phenotype or ethnicity (even the woke crowd doesn’t know what to use anymore) instead of race as though it makes any difference. It’s still a biological cluster of noticeable differences. They’re playing word games for all the reasons >>16822730 said. They don’t like the words you use.

Your blending together argument is like saying “there are 10 year olds whose biological age is 15 and vice verse. There’s so much overlap that age is a social construct.” Yeah but is there any doubt about the average traits of different age groups? Imagine going around saying age is a social construct. It wouldn’t be taken seriously.

Your own post is almost an admission that “race is a social construct” is at best a meaningless phrase and more realistically, a term of propaganda.

The standard American racial categories give you biological information. If I say “a black guy walked by” you know something that translates to biological information.

African populations have a lot of genetic diversity, yes, however the evolutionary pathway between black people has similarities because it's in Africa. Each race emerged due to time spent genetically drifting + location. You are right to point out this with Africans though on the same token, but it doesn't fully capture how races arose and hence why they exist

I really don't care about your talking points. Given a large database of unclassified DNA samples from nominally distinct populations around the world (including all kinds of inbred nigger tribes), explain what data analysis you'd use to categorize them, so that only 4 (or however many races you think there are) distinct clusters would naturally emerge.

Hard mode: without appealing to correlates whose choice is justified by pre-scientific racial theory to begin with.

If you mean specifically a snapshot from right now: each distinct African group would be their own race, europeans their own, etc. There would be FAR more distinct clusters than 4

That's a rough way to do it though, because a snapshot necessarily removes history from the analysis. If you went through a phylogenetic approach then you'd like separate black people (africans) from the group which split apart and became the rest of the races. So you'd have the geographically black race, geographically european race, etc. With the black race itself representing substantially more diversity than the rest of them

Ok, then.

>a snapshot necessarily removes history from the analysis
But you don't need "history" to account for inborn differences; you just need the relevant genetic data. To claim otherwise, ironically, would be a genetic fallacy. "History" is relevant if you want to explain how humanity branched out into the existing clusters. What you're trying to do here is trace distinct lineages backwards in time until they (presumably) converge into a smaller number of branches, so that you could map your racial ideology onto that and claim it's science.

In reality, all you need to justify the common man's plight against "racial genocide" is the common-sense, data-driven heuristic that masses of foreigners (especially from other continents) are a net negative for society. But that's just not good enough for crypto-globalists and their useful golems. They need to drive home the point that a Swede and a Frenchman are "racial brothers" who belong in the same pan-European society. i.e. unify all the operative branches of the global oligarchy on the given continent, to make it easier and more efficient for them to lord it over their goycattle.

Yeah you don't need history in a perfect scientific world where everything is solved for you, we don't have that. We have no idea how the genetics works at the level we're trying to parse here, and the relationship these genes have with speciation-style effects which races appear through. It's why white/black is strangely useful because (1) it is a visual indicator of geographic genetic lineage and (2) these indicators arose in the same environment - i.e. European genetic clusters didn't produce the African genetic markers

If you want to dance around with Africa having more genetic diversity, then ok that's a fair stance and you've picked a strong position, but without real knowledge of how genetics works at this level AND if you are ignoring other ways to obtain this information (phylogenetics) then your argument is stuck in an alleyway

I agree with the subtext here that 'race' as a category is not useful in that particular topic, yes. Race science itself is quite crude and low resolution. It's frustrating however that people just deny it exists. Not only does it show up in data but it's in front of everyones eyes and people pretend its not true

There are all kind of gauges in the head. They tell you whether you're alive or dead, and whether you have 4 limbs or none, whether you're male or female. Like in a car, sometimes these gauges get stuck and you think you are dead when you are really alive:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotard%27s_syndrome
Similarly, people with gender dysphoria likely have a gauge in their head that tells them they are one sex when their body is the other:
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6677266/
So Gender Dysphoria is likely neurological not psychological.
So I guess what (((they've))) done is create a new axis by separating gender from sex and saying that there are male women and female men. The sex (male/female) is based on the body and the gender (man/woman) is based on how a person neurologically perceives their gender.
I'm not making a judgement on any of the above but I think we should treat people that have gender dysphoria with kindness as it must be absolutely horrible. I also don't believe arguments like "it doesn't happen anywhere else in the animal kingdom" are fair arguments because the human mind is far more complex.

Richard Dawkins is not a Christian; he has recently identified himself as a "cultural Christian" to express his appreciation for Christianity's cultural and ethical significance while still maintaining his atheism. He clarifies that he is not a religious believer, but he finds the Christian ethos, hymns, and carols comforting and would be upset if cultural aspects like churches were lost. His stance is a preference for Christianity over other religions, which he feels is a "fundamentally decent religion".

This isn’t really surprising when what pros can be found in religion aren’t necessarily exclusive to it. The Jews used it to foster better family ties and community values. Christianity made an immensely beautiful time of celebration — Christmas — and you can just as easily argue you’re a Christian for celebrating Christmas just as easily as you can argue you aren’t.

It’s just Art. Even atheists find churches and cathedrals beautiful. That’s true and raw appreciation right there. Faith isn’t necessary to appreciate it.

Christopher Hitchens famously despised religion and especially Muslims but he was like “nooo you can’t build Israel nooo” (and to be fair he’s not wrong that it was retarded to just make your home next to a people who’ve historically hated Jews) as though it’s not worse than the amount of Jews that were kicked out of Muslim lands or how it was purchased fair and square or how sand people have literally everywhere else to go in the Middle East (but the fact that no other Muslim land will take them in is just showing just how insane and unwanted Palestinians are even to other Muslims) but for some reason will piss and shit and scream when Jews come out a bit ahead (Jews also lived in Palestine prior to the establishment of Israel and the word ‘Palestinian’ also referred to Jews for centuries) because Muslims only care when Jews (and white people) do a thing, and the world never cares when Muslims do 100x worse shit to each other.

there's two aspects to it, i reckon:
first, the idea of sexuality/gender identity in the first place is a sham. lot of people don't realize that by denying *qualities*, they are inherently accepting and integrating the idea of these identities that enable this shit in the first place.

THIS IS A PURPOSEFUL AND CALCULATED STRATEGY BY MARXISTS. by muddying the waters and confusing definitions, it allows them to purposefully destabilize the culture that was here before.

the second thing is that sexual development is a path-dependent process, and so male/female ends up being a fuzzy category that's more about consistency of a collection traits than any one specific trait. you know, it's a neuron thing. fuzzy categories are often exploited because, by their very nature, they don't have an easy description because there isn't any one trait that marks the category.

Ah, but such a person would still not be the same as a conventional/real woman: as a conventional woman’s life history is to be born a girl and grow up into womanhood. Whereas this hypothetical magically transfigured man to woman’s life history is once to have been male, then converted to a biologically indistinguishable interpretation of a female version of the original male individual.

This difference might not bother most people, but it exists and would still likely “not be enough” for many transgender people; they’d still be chasing a greater high just like now. An analogy to the difference would be how we wouldn’t consider a 90 year old in a 20 year olds body the same as a conventional 20 year olds body, due to all their experiences etc.

In short trying to transfigure people to the opposite sex to treat their mental illness is futile.

Ok. Well, the word 'fish' used to mean any sea-dwelling creature. If you ever wondered why clams and lobsters are "shellfish", now you know: they live in the sea and they have shells. Under this perfectly reasonable, common-sense definition, a whale doesn't "look like" a fish but simply is a fish. There's nothing objectively wrong with this categorization; it's just not that useful scientifically. Scientific categories aren't about what makes it easier for normies to categorize things but what makes it easier for scientists to organize knowledge with respect to scientific explanations.

And geographic ancestry is objective & predictive, which is what made my original argument relevant in its own right.
I'm not linking merely just aesthetics of dark skin = African person, I was saying that long-term environmental pressures in Africa produced stable, measurable population structures with things like genetic drift, selection, and other evolutionary mechanisms shaping morphology. This category of analysis is quite easy and fruitful for study.

Hello Anon. :) I spent some time analyzing your discussion with the Arbiter™.

I believe the highest information-density was when the Arbiter™ said:
> Looking like a tar-black gorilla nigger is at best a correlate of the actual factors that determine the nature of the beast.
This supports that the Arbiter™ models people as consisting of a stupidity gene and a color gene which inherit independently of each other.
Therefore, while knowing the "geographic ancestry" of someone's color gene might give you the ability to make statistically better-than-even guesses as to their stupidity gene, it wouldn't be reliable at avoiding a significant fraction of mistakes as well.

Then working backwards to the Arbiter™'s original intent:
> And if I show you a picture of a whale and one of zebra I bet you could easily tell me which one is a fish.
They were probably emphasizing that despite a whale looking more like a flounder in where it lives (or a dolphin looking more like a shark, if you want to filter out the size discrepancy); a whale (or dolphin) actually shares more ancestry with a zebra (since both are mammals).

However, I agree that the Arbiter™ lost the plot when they began using "non-scientific" as a gatekeeping slur/synonym for "not genetic" and then shutting down rhetorically when they realized their mistake. I admired your persistence attempting to extract value from the conversation and would like to converse with you further using any possible means.

I call myself Huxley, after the defender of Darwin's Theory of Evolution in the 1860 Oxford debate. I trace no genetic ancestry to Huxley, but I consider myself to share the ENFP phenotype with Huxley and view them as a role model for open scientific debate. To bring us back to the thread topic of Dawkins, you might say I trace a memetic ancestry to Huxley. [math]k_\text{B}T_\text{r} \approx 4.1 \, \text{pN} \cdot \text{nm}[/math]

Mentally ill retards know who they are and will respond with mentally ill posts even if you never addressed any one of them in particular.

Mentally ill retards have zero impulse control. They literally can't help it.

Since life is conceived at the interaction level between the two gametes, wouldn’t this mean that life is made with the goal to produce more gametes for this pivotal interaction to take place?

How is this not binary?

The argument for "trans rights" is that "gender affirming care" is very profitable and if you oppose it you are going against a business that covers a large chunk of the US economy largely dominated by a (((certain group))). That is why they are special and why questioning them is a hate crime.

Large chunk of the US economy? More testosterone is used by bodybuilders than FtMs, and similarly with estrogen and postmenopausal women.

It is a disorder, not a gender classification. Claiming otherwise is no different than arguing against the fact that humans are bipedal by pointing to someone in a wheelchair.

I'm talking about the medical industry as a whole, not just trans shit. Also your picking out one minor part of it to make your disingenuous argument just shows the shape of your nose.

If Dawkins is right, there is no soul and what follows is that morality is subjective and rights are nothing more than privileges and immunities conferred on the basis of sentimentality from the former, ergo, how you see it is completely 100% wrong being predicated on an assumed objective morality. Being oneself implies their existence and lifestyle choices are justifiable and exempt from scrutiny which is anti science and on the tier of being "a child of God". Total retard.

He already answered your 90 attempt at a gotcha: their condition can't be accurately described by either label (man or woman); it's its own thing (a kind of disorder).

The basic sense of right and wrong is neither objective nor subjective. It's not independent of human minds but neither is it dependent on any mind in particular.
