       Because shorter "whites" still have partial Giant ancestry,
       whereas even taller "non-whites" do not.

       “Because shorter "whites" still have partial Giant ancestry,
       whereas even taller "non-whites" do not”
       I guess that is valid considering the majority of “non-white”
       NBA players (including “non-black” “non-white” players like Lin,
       Misaka, etc) have less giant blood compared to “white” players:

       An example of short Giants would be pre-MJ MTV artists:

       But you still haven’t confirmed whether or not:
       [quote]unlike non-Western confidence, [Western (including
       Eurocentric) confidence] is always directed towards one side of
       the spectrum (regardless if someone expands it or a Eurocentrist
       follows it) as opposed to a part of the spectrum that helps
       complete their purpose?[/quote]
       The first point I tried to confirm

       It is hard to know for sure. I have encountered people of
       various different physiques/net worths/qualifications/etc. who
       all say that what they've got makes them feel confident, which
       would appear contrary to your proposal, but how many are telling
       the truth? People who lack confidence often try to portray
       themselves as supremely confident, so it is not always
       immediately clear whose apparent confidence is real and whose is
       an act.

       Seems like confidence can based off of various kinds of
       parameters (as opposed to an amount of people that claim to base
       it off of certain parameters).
       “People who lack confidence often try to portray themselves as
       supremely confident, so it is not always immediately clear whose
       apparent confidence is real and whose is an act.”
       Sounds like most selfish people. They seem to lack confidence
       themselves leading them to focus on themselves more than others
       (which is ignoble especially if there is no completion point).
       I read on a Reddit post about Jung’s concept of confidence and
       self esteem, which is about overcoming fears and other natural
       conditioning that leads to low confidence. This helps to resist
       selective pressure and to prevent any more loss of original
       nobility.

       I fell to the current system before I even realized it was meant
       to be avoided at all costs. I feel the only fear that truly
       needs be overcome is the fear of death. No one can serve a
       community in a truly unselfish manner if they fear death. Many
       whom have sacrificed for their community through human history
       did so by by sacrificing their own lives! This is just a fact at
       this point...
       Question:
       Why are "progressives" such as Bill Gates so afraid of death?

       "Why are "progressives" such as Bill Gates so afraid of death?"
       Because they want to personally witness the progress they
       believe in. As there is no limit to progress by definition,
       there is no point at which they can feel that they have finished
       witnessing it.
       Fear of dying prior to completing what you want to do is
       understandable (especially if you can find no one reliable to
       take over the task), but what you want to do must have a
       completion point.
       The worst double-standard, however, is that progressives who
       fear their own deaths support progress itself, even though
       progress is none other than the death of what came before.
       Instead, progressives shamelessly say that the old has to go in
       order for the new to come.
       Then again, what do we expect? Progressives are literally those
       who support animal experimentation (which has led to the deaths
       of countless victims) for the sake of medical (ie.
       life-prolonging) research, so it's not as if their
       double-standard were not already through the roof.....
       Conclusion: progressives are vampires.
