    I mean, you have to ask why, in the ancient world, the tragedy of achilles was as dominant as the bible was in the medieval era, and it constituted the vast majority of the content in alexandria. Why did they replace achilles with this person jesus? That analysis ends debate.

    THERE ARE ONLY TWO SUCCESS STORIES

    Don’t be daft. There are only two success stories in history. The far west: a professional militia of kin that create markets, and the far east: a professional bureaucracy of kin that create monopolies. I have no idea why we even pay attention to the fertile crescent. it is an exercise in a professional class of liars (priests). Which is the worst of all possible worlds. Starting first with any technology is a disadvantage because of the cumulative network effect. The chinese avoided religion altogether. The west was conquered by it and has tried repeatedly to escape it. Maybe this time we will be successful in replacing religion with Literature, the Oath, Sports, and Festivals.

    Also: The problem for sub saharan africa (and for most of the world) is (a) the tradition of stealing on behalf of your family tribe and clan, and (b) the expression of this tradition in *corruption*.

    The only fix for corruption is not to demand good people (they don’t exist) but to create good judges.

    If you demand uncorrupt judges (and kill them if they are not uncorrupt), the judges will prosecute politicians.

    Until you have an army or police force, and a judiciary that is paid enough that corruption is not ‘valuable’, then it does not matter what government you have.

    step 1. soldiers who protect the people.

    step 2. judges who are not corrupt

    step 3. police (or soldiers) who will enforce the judge’s rule.

    It is cheaper to create highly paid police and judges than to create a highly paid military.

    The world is very simple if we stop trying to find good men, and instead, punish people who are bad – leaving only good people able to work in government.

    Ukraine has the same problem. Every poor country has the same problem.

    Westerners do not have this problem because we were always a militia – meaning all men fight. This is the secret to western successes. It all begins with our militia.

    That’s strike two. Um. Study archaeology, economic history, genetics. Particularly neolithic-atlantic copper, Mesolithic civilization, and the conquest by the celts. And the economy of the celts. The Romans destroyed the celts for WEALTH.

    What does a temporary organizational method like a ‘State’ or ‘Government’ have to do with a civilization? Governments and borders are disposable. And the Han are the largest most homogenous ethnic group. I have no idea where you get your ideas from….

    I don’t see that. I see a systemic problem going back to the origins in the late neolithic, passing through the development of their aristocracy in the age of transformation, and continuing to the present. It might be that we drag them out of it, but it doesn’t look encouraging.

    China is a very old civilization, nearly as remote as the british isles, and following a similar pattern of development. The chinese rate of development was early because of it, very slooooooow for reasons I think I might understand.Vs westerners who were late and very fast.

  • The Problem. One of The Roots of It. One Fifth Is Inbred.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3419292/

    Consanguinity is a deeply rooted social trend among one-fifth of the world population mostly residing in the Middle East, West Asia and North Africa, as well as among emigrants from these communities now residing in North America, Europe and Australia. The mounting public awareness on prevention of congenital and genetic disorders in offspring is driving an increasing number of couples contemplating marriage and reproduction in highly consanguineous communities to seek counseling on consanguinity. Primary health care providers are faced with consanguineous couples demanding answers to their questions on the anticipated health risks to their offspring. Preconception and premarital counseling on consanguinity should be part of the training of health care providers particularly in highly consanguineous populations.
