(FB 1542210631 Timestamp) THE COMING CIVIL WAR ISN’T JUST ABOUT RACE by Göran Dahl The purest and most basal of all conflicts are those between different genetic clusters – it doesn’t get more fundamental than that. You’re not really disagreeing with Curt’s proposition that it’s a war of reproductive strategies, you’re just left hanging without a proper explanation. It will be a race war, but there will also be race traitors as you may imagine; those who aid and abet outgroups through intimate relationships and deliberate actions that are deemed detrimental to our fitness. So a lot of in-group members will be butchered because of their crimes, and at the same time, there is evidence that suggests that their propensity to commit treason is genetic. So saying that it’s going to be a race war is not enough; it’s also going to be an intra-racial conflict where those with weaker selection for ethnocentrism get weeded out, because they’re more likely to do something considered anti-white. We usually refer to these people as leftists. Since we and leftists pursue (on average) different evolutionary strategies, we can also state that there is going to be a conflict revolving around speciation. Of course, speciation is unlikely to occur because it takes hundreds of thousands of years on average (and that’s for small, isolated groups prone to genetic drift). Likewise, I think people will find it more prudent to extirpate leftists altogether to prevent them from posing a threat ever again, so instead of a speciating divergence, only a single portion of the species will survive to evolve further.

(FB 1542260237 Timestamp) WESTERNERS ARE DIFFERENT – SCIENCE ERODES EQUALITARIAN MYTHS Twentieth-century cousin marriage rates explain more than 50 percent of variation in democracy across countries today. Political institutions vary widely around the world, yet the origin of this variation is not well understood. This study tests the hypothesis that the Catholic Churchâs medieval marriage policies dissolved extended kin networks and thereby fostered inclusive institutions. In a difference-in-difference setting, I demonstrate that exposure to the Church predicts the formation of inclusive, self-governed commune cities before the year 1500CE. Moreover, within medieval Christian Europe,stricter regional and temporal cousin marriage prohibitions are likewise positively associated with communes. Strengthening this finding, I show that longer Church exposure predicts lower cousin marriage rates; in turn, lower cousin marriage rates predict higher civicness and more inclusive institutions today. These associations hold at the regional, ethnicity and country level. Twentieth-century cousin marriage rates explain more than 50 percent of variation in democracy across countries today. https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/11/twentieth-century-cousin-marriage-rates-explain-50-percent-variation-democracy-across-countries-today.html

(FB 1542219045 Timestamp) THE OTHER GREEK INNOVATION: TRAGEDY —“Nietzsche found in classical Athenian tragedy an art form that transcended the pessimism and nihilism of a fundamentally meaningless world. The Greek spectators, by looking into the abyss of human suffering and affirming it, passionately and joyously affirmed the meaning of their own existence. They knew themselves to be infinitely more than petty individuals, finding self-affirmation not in another life, not in a world to come, but in the terror and ecstasy alike celebrated in the performance of tragedies.”—

(FB 1542290125 Timestamp) Mesopotamian (Semitic) literature is underclass the same way that greek literature is upper class and roman literature (and english for that matter) is middle class. River lands and Forests are wonderful. Deserts suck. People are ignorant, dirty, superstitious poor, and tribal. Disease is rampant. Violence endemic. Thieving heroic. There is a vast difference between the wealthy and the poor. This is not so true in western civilization for geographic and demographic reasons. Just as it was not true in east asia. Just as it was less true in india. So while western lit is heroic (early european, aryan european, greek, roman… all of these are heroic literatures. They are not the submissive literatures of the mesopotamians and the egyptians. Whatever happens along the euphrates and the nile, we can certainly see in Gobekli Tepe and in all of the cities in the near east. Submission. This is not the literature of the hittites (anatolians), old europeans (balkans), There is a relationship between the russian steppe people, the mongols, and the turkic raiders, in levels of development and harshness of nature, but also an influence and more genetic similarity with the other post-ice-age peoples of europe, which were more influential via the scandinavians, pole-germans, germans, and even french. The church came into slavic peoples without being able to create an extractive political order as they were in europe. The bad people were the boyars, not the church. Where europeans took out their anger on the church and the aristocracy, americans did it on the aristocracy, europe in general, but were fully protestant and lacking central church political power, so without need to rebel against. During the period where east slavic people would have rebelled they had ‘better enemies’ to rebel against than the church. SO they did. Not very difficult really once you understand it but it has been very hard for me to understand it for some reason. So, the literature of suffering seems to be a continental thing, where the scandinavians are just pagan in spirit still. Germans are nauseating sometimes because of it. Russians nihilistic. And americans (and brits) have no cognizance of it whatsoever. Because we believe the world is under our control if we want it to be. So I am hostile to the submissive narratives for our people. Tragedy is a better substitute (and a western invention by the way), and tragedy calls upon us to fight together, not just suffer.
