    Q: LET’S SCIENCE THE RACE AND ETHNICITY ISSUE

    –“Race is above iQ. You need a folk bound by blood”– Theobald

    Well, you’re expressing it as a preference, so how about I science it for you:

    –“Devotion in time and loyalty over time to ethnicity in reproduction, society, economics, politics, and war is an advantage over all other alternatives. And the only advantage of alternatives is trade of goods services and information that improve the responsibility, agency, productivity, and capital of the ethnicity.”–

    Why? This is why…

    Except at the margins, (very top and very bottom) of any population (ethnicity race species) ingroup cooperation whether genetic, reproductive, social, economic, or political is an advantage over outgroup cooperation because of the material differences in neotenic evolution, related personality traits, related intelligence, and accumulated genetic load (defects).

    In addition the aggregate neoteny, personality, intelligence, and genetic load composition of population is more influential on the conditions opportunities and outcomes than the same property of any given individual in that population.

    Therefore the optimum polity is a small, homogenous, low power distance, high trust, redistributive (commons) polity that is larger than the minimum reproductive threshold possibility of improvement and error correction) and smaller than the minimum divergence threshold (difficulty of improvement and error correction). This number is between ten thousand and ten million.

    But the minimum survivable polity appears to be three hundred thousand, and even then only when in association and alliance with others who, in total, constitute five to ten million.

    But even at five to ten million the survivability of those polities requires alliance into the tens to hundreds of millions for defense and trade policy.

    And subsequent alliance into the totality of others similar evolution, culture, and development for defense alone.

    This only means ‘let a thousand nations bloom’ so that we may construct polities (human intergenerational farms).
    Trading and visiting are different from cohabitating. 😉

    Staying on message:
    1 – Not all peoples are equally disposed to speak truth before face.
    2 – The lower the group’s median IQ the less likely they are able to speak truth before face.
    3 – Some populations must rely on lying to advance their collectivist religious social and politcal systems (the abrahamic cults)
    4 – Truth before face is, aside from individual self determination (sovereignty), the single most important civilizational difference between the west (whites) and the rest.

    Why? Because every single institution we value and that provides us with such a competitive advantage, and provides such a higher standard of living and quality of life, depends on it – the origin of our law, or our empiricism of our science, arts, technoligy and medicine, especially our liberty and jurty and common concurrent law – all depend on this one foundation: truth before face regardless of cost.

    And what is the left advancing? Collectivism and Lying instead. In other words cultural suicide.

    And why are women so eager to advance collectivism face before truth and ly ing to cover it?

    Because it absolves them of responsibility for defense of the behavioral commons. And women evade responsibility as much as they pursue attention and consumption. Training women to not rely on antisocial behavior is just as important if not more important than training men not to. and that’s what we have failed to do.

    Now back to the paper:

    As if we needed more evidence. The only people on earth who speak truth before face. And the entire left’s program is meant to undermine it – as is nearly every woman in the west :(. ) It’s a paper by Kirkegaard with his usual zeal.

    –“Research shows that honesty correlates positively with intelligence. Similarly, there are racial differences in honesty, with Europeans being more honest than various other ethnic groups. It is currently unknown to what degree race differences in intelligence can explain the differences in honesty. …

    We replicate prior findings that honesty correlated with measures of intelligence (r = .38, 95% CI [.34, .41]) and that Blacks (d = -0.67, 95% CI [-.76, -.59]) and Hispanics (d = -0.4, 95% CI [-.50, -.31]) are less honest than Whites, and this holds whether honesty is measured by self-reports, interviewer-reports or by parent-reports.

    In addition, race differences in honesty remained between Blacks and Whites but not between Whites and Hispanics after controlling for intelligence. Differences between Blacks and Whites but not Whites and Hispanics were noticeably lower in self-reports (Blacks: d = -0.18 [-0.24, -0.11], Hispanics: d = -0.24 [-0.31, -0.17]) than parent-reports (Blacks: d = -0.43 [-0.52, -0.35], Hispanics: -0.24 [-0.33, -0.15]) and interviewer-reports (Blacks: d = -0.7 [-0.75, -0.64], Hispanics: -0.3 [-0.36, -0.25]).

    Cross-national comparisons were made using national IQ data and Hofstede’s cultural dimensions. Bayesian model averaging suggests that Hofstede’s individualism dimension (β = .64, PIP = 100%), national IQs (β = .25, PIP = 73.6%), and masculinity (β = -.35, PIP = 100%) predict differences in honesty between countries.

    (CD: Meaning? Collectivism breeds dishonesty.)

    Parking violations per diplomat were only predicted by national IQs (r = -0.28, p < .001), given that no other variable reached a posterior inclusion probability above 0% besides national IQs. Implications and theories concerning these findings are discussed.”–

    –“Why did France begin its fertility transition decades before the rest of the continent?”–François Valentin

    The answer is relatively obvious and isn’t really much of an enigma.
    a) French society, particularly after the French Revolution, embraced more individualistic and secular values compared to other parts of Europe. This cultural shift contributed to a greater acceptance of birth control and smaller family sizes.
    b) The ideas of Thomas Malthus, who argued that unchecked population growth would outpace food production, were widely discussed in France. This influenced early adoption of family planning practices.
    c) France urbanized earlier than many other European countries, which contributed to the decline in birth rates.
    d) France had relatively high literacy rates and educational standards for women, which influenced family planning decisions.
    e) The weakening of the church’s influence on daily life, including its stance on birth control.
    f) Perhaps most importantly Relative decline: the catholics had outbred the protestants, and french agricultural productivity (geography) and population were the source of her relative wealth. So the french had a faster rate of adjustment than protestant or poorer regions of europe. Compare with the Irish and the consequences of the potato famine.
