What's with the 'charges' ? It's a discussion not a pretend court. I don't respond to 'charges', nor do I insist that you do where you perceive them. I know where you stand and you have an idea of where I stand. I'm not an apologist for the Matthews and their like but I wonder how helpful this view of 'they're better than me, i'll be deferential ..... i'm better than them, i'll be contemptuous' is ?

"but I wonder how helpful this view of 'they're better than me, i'll be deferential ..... i'm better than them, i'll be contemptuous' is ?"

Being contemptuous of the Matthews and their ilk is very helpful indeed. It prevents us from tolerating or accepting their general skankyness ? and thus prevents us, and the rest of society, from sinking to their level. If we were to accept the Matthews and their condition, if we respected it, it would normalize it. Human society would then be doomed to regress as we took on the cultural and biological traits of the underclass. A new dark age would ensue.

Luckily, Mother Nature foresaw this problem and programmed us to be repulsed by cretinism, weakness and stupidity. So it?s an automatic response, we don?t even have to worry thinking about it.

Have you ever thought you might be overly vigilant ? Why not be aspirational instead of obsessed with what's at the bottom? I think you might be greatly exaggerating the risk and it makes you sound fearful.

But I am aspirational - as is everyone else. We all want a better life for ourselves (Mother nature's programming once again).

I wouldn't say I was 'fearful' - not yet anyway. But the risk is a real one. Nurturing the underclass cripples us economically - diminishing our quality of life and preventing speedy scientific progress. If the qualities of the underclass were to permeate out into wider society there would, eventually, be little or no progress. We would as a species become incapable of abstract or creative thought and would revert to barbarism. It's worth noting that although there have been many fabulous human civilizations in the past - none have survived to the present day. They all became decadent and decayed and were eventually lost in the sands of time. Are we sowing the seeds of our own destruction by apportioning resources and respect to the underclass? Some would argue that we are.

There is a view that the decadence diffuses downwards rather than upwards.

I am surprised that anyone believes that.
