1) Genders differ in interests, preferences, and aptitudes. This makes 50/50% gender equality in fields like engineering an absurd and counterproductive goal.
2) Women in the workplace has been a disaster and most women would be happier raising children at home. Higher education for women is frequently wasted.
3) College for everyone is an absurd and wasteful goal and most people would be better off in a Swiss-style apprentice system.
4) Our $825 billion defense budget could be slashed in half without making us any more unsafe. It is driven by irrational fear and greed.
5) The IQ gap can be explained almost solely by genetics and this gap explains a lot of societal issues.
6) Democracy itself is largely a bad idea. Most voters are clueless and uninformed and the founders were rightly worried about mob rule.
7) Our modern consumer society is breeding misery and runs counter to everything we know about what constitutes a good life and fostering happiness.

no women teachers under 30, nor over 45. (no shitlibs, no old crone battleaxes either)
no girls allowed.
corporal punishment instead of suspension. (not perverted english BDSM whipping, run laps until they puke.)
detention comes with mandatory hand-copying of school lessons.
safe space for duelling. (eliminates bullying)

Idiotic stuff like the three-strikes laws has resulted in people spending their life in prison for stealing TVs. Drugs and immigration account for like 60% of the prison population. Deport the illegals and force non-violent drug offenders into treatment. Execute or lock-up for life psychopathic violent offenders.

The US penal population of 2.2 million adults is the largest in the world. In 2012, close to 25% of the world's prisoners were held in American prisons, although the United States accounts for about 5% of the world's population. The US rate of incarceration, with nearly 1 of every 100 adults in prison or jail, is 5- to 10-times higher than rates in Western Europe and other democracies.
Based on the results of its study, the NRC calls the US incarceration rates "historically unprecedented and internationally unique".

i mean, they could just stop selling drugs and stealing TVs, right?
no amount of "treatment" is ever gonna help those people, they're always gonna be a drain on society
every previous civilization just killed or exiled these people - we need to do the same. if there was another solution to this problem, somebody would have already figured it out in the past 5000 years

Executing them would probably be optimal from an efficiency standpoint, but would result in a massive human rights backlash. You can't seriously argue we can't find a better way to deal with them then spending nearly $80K a year to lock them up? Over a 30 year period you are looking at $3M plus factoring in inflation.
At $75,560, housing a prisoner in California now costs more than a year at Harvard

maybe 80% of the total population, but not the population that actually participates in "public discourse" (as per the Wiki definition of the OW).
and Google isn't just any old tastemaker.

4)Our $825 billion defense budget could be slashed in half without making us any more unsafe. It is driven by irrational fear and greed.
First sentence is true. Second sentence is rated mostly false. No one disputes the utter greed and waste in defense spending. But it's not from irrational fear. It's from the US's long term strategic view of projecting power globally and maintaining superpower status. Also our military realizes the importance of spring training, ie, gotta give our boys practice in actual shooting so they're ready for the next real war. (China doesn't get this and will get pwned when the showdown happens. No one in the Chinese army from the generals on down has ever been in combat ljl)

"6)Our justice system is shameful and we imprison many people unjustly. No one should be in prison for non-violent drug crimes."
real talk thats outside the overton is that we need serious drug laws to lock up criminal nigs when we dont yet have evidence of their violent crimes.
believe me, no decent white person is in prison for oops possession. thats a weird canard but you should have known libs were lying since youve met thousands of drug users in college+professional settings and NONE of them have gone to prison for it

Mass sterilization and cheap and widespread birth control in Africa should be a top priority.
Genetic engineering for higher IQ populations should be a priority.
Dumbs should be provided incentives to not breed and higher IQ healthy people should be provided incentives to breed.

Cultures are not all equally good. Some cultures absolutely suck and we don't want them here.
Maintaining a distinct and American culture is also a good thing.
Tech companies manipulating information is a serious threat to the entire country.

academically, philosophy and literature etc. are either leisure activities for the noblesse or the domain of highly intelligent people who can make material contributions to their respective fields
whether they should be offered as majors at all at schools beneath the top 25-30 or so (being generous) is highly debatable. nobody being "trained" as a philosopher at a lesser school will be able to contribute to the field or use his education in a productive way.

majors like business are prole and not rigorous but they at least leave kids with shreds of knowledge which will help them to get jobs. something like accounting is not difficult at all, yet just two fairly basic courses in accounting would make a kid with an otherwise pedestrian intellect very employable out of college.
the point is that kids are increasingly treating college as an extension of high school – not so much as preparation for what you’re going to do with your life (which would force them to think much more seriously as to whether college is even appropriate for them) but as something that is almost a necessity today, regardless of your major. so kids go through the system without much thought, and then after ending up on the job market realize that they don’t know what they need to know to be employable. this would be fine for a) the potential contributor, b) the kid from money, or c) the kid with a pedigree to get a job regardless, but for anyone else it’s a waste of years and tuition $.
these kids are then left to spend more years and $ on dumb graduate degrees like MBAs and journo degrees when they were just as capable of learning everything that they'd learn in those programs as an undergrad. this is the kind of stuff that should be taught at the undergraduate level. MBAs exist in part precisely because the material isn’t hard, which leads to employers treating credentials as a proxy for intelligence, but in principle kids are still capable of learning this material without having to do second degrees.
i am all for the idea of a liberal arts education but, especially for non-elite kids, it needs to be anchored in some sort of constructive training.

Great post - but I'm not sure about #6. It's not too outside the mainstream to discuss over-imprisonment relating to non-violent drug crimes, e.g. mainstream libertarians discuss openly their belief that almost all drugs should be completely legal and govt. shouldn't have a say in what you put in your body.
I think this is b/c the Overton window is primarily restricted by leftist thinking / inability to discuss or engage these topics, and it's actually a mainstream leftist belief that we are tragically imprisoning far too many people (although they're mostly focused on the disparate racial effects of this).
