Christopher Langan's Cognitive Theoretic Model of the Universe

[whitecoast]

I don't know, is Langan really that smart? He's got this ethnic European superiority thing going on that seems pretty pompous, even racist. Maybe it's a reaction against anti-white sentiment in America, sure, but this just seems over the top to me, emotional thinking run amok.

There’s definitely a lot of projections coming from Langan here. Yes, Europeans do receive a lot of unjustified criticism, but Langan is doing this with the Chinese and Africans in the above also, irrespective of any slivers of fact. Odds are people receptive to his true and good ideas might be turned off by this poor behaviour, so in a way he’s arguing against himself and the potential good he may bring to others.

That man needs to find better people to follow and conversations to engage in on X. If you wouldn’t say something like that to someone sitting across from you, you probably shouldn’t be saying it across a keyboard either.

It reminds of the distinction between gurus and mentors, and that we should never put people on pedestals.

Oh no. Not racism. Langan is cancelled!

Langan was punching back at an anti-white Twitter account that was gloating about nature healing by reducing the white population. But of course, white men aren't allowed to dish it out, right? They're expected to take the abuse, indefinitely, because racism bad (but only white people are held to this standard, one somehow never finds Indians or Chinese clutching their pearls about other Indians or Chinese being racist).

Well, I can't help but wonder what all these leftists who are so down on the 'Patriarchy' would do if they somehow discover that Jesus was Julius Ceasar. For example, if some liberal university announced it, (it's a thought experiment). Weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth?

I have noticed that Indians, Chinese, and other Eastern peoples tend to do things or not based on their culture perhaps more so than Westerners.

I just found this recent interview with Langan and only now realized that it is the same guy this thread is about. Apparently, at least IQ wise, he is more or less the smartest man alive and in recorded history (with an IQ between about 190 and 210):

Are we assuming that the "they" who wants to create "soul smashing" are 4D STS or similar? If so, what do they achieve for themselves through this "soul smashing"? And then there's the question of whether or not this is part of a "natural" cycle and if there is, from a big picture pov, a need for certain souls to be "smashed" to contribute to the primal matter of the 'redo'.

Everyone wants to play in the sandbox but no one wants to be the sand.

It's actually from a couple of years ago. Chris had it as an exclusive for his substack subscribers.

The Daily Wire flew Langan and his wife out to wherever this studio was, put them up in a hotel for a couple of days to do it, said it was the first of some bigger thing they wanted to do, then scrapped the whole thing and the video was never released.

If I remember right Chris was quite upset over the whole thing, in particular them not releasing the video. It was very strange. But then, I don't know how often that kind of thing happens in media circles.

Could be they found out about his views re: the Zio-bankers.

That’s interesting, I didn’t know that.

Yeah, I watched a number of portions of it and my strong guess is that some of the things he said weren’t deemed shareable by the Daily Wire.

Noticed, unsurprisingly, that the highest recorded IQ in the world doesn’t prevent you from drawing wrong conclusions. But over all what I saw so far is quite interesting (also his background in the real middle class world) and he comes to a number of conclusions and ideas that seem to go more or less in the right direction. The interviewer lost me as soon as he sort of ridiculed the paranormal and/or UFO‘s while Langan takes this quite serious as possibility. What I also found interesting is that Langan very early on saw that there is quite more to Trump then what was officially reporting in the mainstream about him. In his opinion Trumps IQ is probably around the average college professor which wouldn’t surprise me.

Found this post about the situation regarding the interview, which took place in April 30 of 2022, in the deep recesses of my emails.

High Strangeness at the Daily Wire

The Daily Wire is a conservative media company with HQ in Nashville, TN. It was founded in 2015 by Ben Shapiro and film director Jeremy Boreing. It's a leading online publisher with a notable presence on Facebook, and it produces video podcasts for people like Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, and...

He writes:

It follows that the true rationale is thus more likely to have gone something like this:

“The Judeo-Christian Right already has a high-profile power structure, and Chris Langan isn't in it. We’re already Big Shots on a Mission from God, so why do we need Chris Langan? Who does this joker think he is, anyway?”

They started this interview process with Chris before the Daily Wire deal with Jordan Peterson was done, so he thinks that once they had Peterson, already a well-established intellectual they knew they could control, they no longer needed HIQ Chris and kicked him to the curb.
