Here are the five main beliefs:

If the image is hard to read:

1.Just as intelligence, a moral sense, aesthetic appreciation, and other factors place humans above animals, some humans are in a very deep sense better than other humans.

2.Society disproportionately benefits from the scientific and artistic genius of a select few. An important goal of government and public policy is to channel their energies in productive directions and leave them free to pursue their missions.

3.As confirmed by modern behavioral genetics, heredity is the dominant force behind human variation.

4.Egalitarian ideology and concerns over what is called “social justice” are primarily driven by ugly instincts, namely envy and feelings of inferiority.

5.While all rational beings must be utilitarians to some degree, everyone has non-utilitarian commitments. The best ones put an emphasis on beauty, freedom, and progress, rather than pleasing supernatural beings, fealty to some “natural” order, the glorification of imagined communities like nations, or equality of outcomes.

(Every time there is a space between the “#.” and letters it messes with the formatting so I have to eliminate the space, so I apologize if it’s hard to read)

    Not only that’s bullshit about animals, but ffs the one thing everyone knows about Nietzsche is his “morality is sus” thesis

      I really want to drop this guy off within 50m of a hippo so that he can show us how his intelligence, morality, and aesthetic appreciation put him above the fearless 1500kg 30km/hr death machine.
