  • DEFINITION: GENETIC LOAD Genetic load refers to the burden carried by a populati

    DEFINITION: GENETIC LOAD
    Genetic load refers to the burden carried by a population of organisms due to the accumulation of deleterious mutations, or the presence of less optimal gene variants, compared to some optimal genotype.

    This concept is crucial in the fields of genetics, evolutionary biology, and conservation biology because it has implications for the health, survival, and reproductive success of a species.

    TL’DR;
    Genetic load consists of the accumulation of genetic non-adaptation to domestication syndrome (neoteny), genetic mutation, and their combinations that result in variation from fitness, symmetry, neoteny, self regulation, and agency.

    The result in civil society, economics, and politics, is class variation, which consists of variation in the capacity to bear responsibility for self, private, and common over increasing periods of time.

    This is why there is so little class rotation. Genetics.

    TYPES OF GENETIC LOAD

    1. Mutational Load

    Definition: This is the genetic load imposed by harmful mutations that arise naturally through DNA replication errors or due to environmental factors. These mutations can reduce the fitness of individuals carrying them.

    Impact: Over time, new mutations may either be eliminated by natural selection if they are severely detrimental or accumulate in the population if they have only minor effects on fitness. The accumulation of many such slightly deleterious mutations can gradually reduce the overall fitness of the population.

    2. Segregational Load

    Definition: This type of load arises when different alleles (versions of a gene) exist at a single gene locus, and the heterozygote genotype has a higher fitness than either homozygote genotype.

    Impact: Even if natural selection favors the heterozygote, the homozygote individuals are still produced by sexual reproduction, resulting in some individuals with reduced fitness.

    3. Inbreeding Load

    Definition: Inbreeding load is the reduction in fitness that arises due to increased homozygosity (both alleles at a locus are identical) of deleterious recessive alleles. Inbreeding can lead to a greater expression of these harmful recessive traits.

    Impact: This is particularly a concern in small populations or those that are isolated, where genetic diversity is limited, and there is a higher chance of breeding between close relatives.

    REDUCING GENETIC LOAD

    Natural Selection and Genetic Drift

    Natural Selection: Over time, natural selection can reduce genetic load by favoring individuals with fewer harmful mutations. This selective pressure leads to a decrease in deleterious alleles in the gene pool.

    Genetic Drift: In small populations, genetic drift can also influence genetic load, sometimes increasing it by chance fixation of deleterious alleles or reducing it by chance elimination of such alleles.

    Artificial Selection and Genetic Management
    In managed populations, such as those in conservation programs or in agriculture, genetic load can sometimes be managed through selective breeding practices that aim to minimize the incidence of deleterious alleles while maintaining genetic diversity.

    Gene Editing
    With advances in genetic technologies like CRISPR/Cas9, there is potential to directly reduce genetic load by correcting deleterious mutations at the DNA level, although this approach is subject to ethical and practical considerations.

    Implications of Genetic Load
    Understanding and managing genetic load is crucial for the conservation of endangered species, the management of captive breeding programs, and understanding human health and disease. For example, genetic disorders in humans are often a direct manifestation of the genetic load, particularly when harmful recessive alleles become expressed in an individual’s genotype.

    Summary
    Genetic load is a significant evolutionary force that affects the fitness and viability of populations. Managing and understanding this concept is critical for improving health, conserving biodiversity, and understanding the evolutionary dynamics of populations.

  • SEX DIFFERENCES IN COGNITION – AND CONSEQUENCES Here is the short version: 1. Sc

    SEX DIFFERENCES IN COGNITION – AND CONSEQUENCES
    Here is the short version:
    1. Science consists of the process of discovering first principles(causes). We construct everything from chains of causality using first principles. It is a universal falsificationary logic.
    2. The first cause and therefore first principle of human differences is sex differences. The second is degree of noetenic evolution (resulting in race) as neoteny is the direction of human evolution (domestication syndrome). The third is accumulated genetic load (resulting in class).
    3. Sexes differ in cognition, speech, tactics, strategy, conflict, and warfare (see sex differences in antisocial behavior) with male force, fraud, and criminality and female manipulation, reputation destruction, and promiscuity.
    4. Civilizations differ in their use of masculine and feminine strategy.
    5. Religion(middle east) teaches lying and manipiulation. States (china) teach force and coercion, and Contractualism(law)(europe) teaches reciprocity and contract. (it’s much more complicated but that’s the simple version).
    6) Sex differences function as a division of labor, time, and scale:

    GIVEN Sex Differences in Cognition:
    Feminine vs Masculine
    Lateral (more) vs longitudinal Brain Organization (fast)
    In Time (now) vs Over Time (then)
    Direct (perceptible) vs Abstract (predicted) Causality
    Empathizing vs Systematizing
    Experience vs Consequence
    HyperConsuming vs Capitalizing
    Devotion in time vs Loyalty over time
    Special Pleading/asymmetry vs Consistency/symmetry Status by Consumption w/o responsibility vs Status by Capitalizing with responsibility
    Irresponsibility vs Responsibility for Commons
    One/Few vs Populations/Many Small
    Scale vs Large Scale
    Prey(Submission) vs Preditor(Dominance)
    Herd vs Packs Global vs National
    Dysgenic vs Eugenic
    Devolutionary vs Evolutionary
    Left (parasitic) vs Right (productive)

    AND GIVEN
    Sex Differences in Limits:
    Masculine: There is a limit to what responsibility I can bear.
    –vs–
    Feminine: There is no limit to the consumption I can bear.

    AND GIVEN
    Distribution of Sex Differences in the Population:
    [masculine (systematizing) vs feminine (empathizing)] The distribution of traits is overlapping in the population distribution with a few cognitively feminine males and cognitively masculine females, as well a larger number of extreme males (autism) and extreme females (psychosis).

    AS SUCH
    Evolutionary Necessity of the Division of Cognition
    Masculine conservatives perceive the world across time (reals) and feminine progressive perceive the world in time (feels). Progressive historians complain about history and conservative historians explain history.

    Feminine in time vs Masculine over time.
    Masculine minds will be better at everything at scale. But the feminine ability to intuitively manage many relationships and states of mind (children especially but other women as well is an equal advantage in the IN TIME domain.).

    Unconstrained vs Constrained Visions (scarcity)
    If the feminine mind did not hold the unconstrained vision, mothers would give up on their children. If the masculine mind did not hold the constrained vision, no group would survive the disorder. So, we see feminine opportunity and masculine scarcity. Evolution always divides the labor. Among humans it divides the cognitive labor of “TIME and SCALE”.
    (Note: See Thomas Sowell: A Conflict of Visions)

    Evolution of Differences in Cognition
    Our findings are that all differences in cognition valuation and expression, other than those of genetic load or in-utero development, are caused by sex differences in the organization of the brain for the purpose of dividing the labor of the sexes into specializing in opposite time frames.

    Why? Physics and Ternary Logic of the Universe.

    Think of humans evolving from fast male sperm predator, and slow female egg prey if you want a humorous analogy to help you remember. But while easy to remember and somewhat humorous, the analogy is quite accurately the causality.

    Explaining why this division of labor exists produces an origin of sex differences in physics and combined with differences in responsibility and status seeking provides the three causal properties that define human differences in behavior.

    Nature likes ternary logic which is something we explore elsewhere if you want to twist your brain inside out on yet another issue. 😉

    9) Methodology
    Though our work is entirely based on the intersection between neuroscience – particularly over the past decade, and linguistic analysis (from computational linguistics) our methodology uses similar techniques to intelligence, personality, moral bias, and psychological bias testing, but we do so by constructing expression from the causality of the underlying organization of the brain (neurology) instead of deduction from from language alone. (Which has plagued psychology since its origin.)

    Also, I keep pretty exhaustive data by country and even by genetic composition within the country. ALL group behavior correlates on every single measure with IQ. Sorry.
