    CONSERVATIVE PURITY IS OFTEN A BIT … MUCH.
    One of the problems with our moral intuition (meaning I probably share yours) is that we have an extreme sensitivity to purity, and often make the mistake, of demanding perfection that doesn’t exist, instead of benefiting from the best possible, that does exist. 😉
    Why? We want to trust our advisors and not have to think whether they’re right or not. But we can’t. We can only find people we trust more than others, and then dismiss the outliers when we think they’ve missed the boat.
    None of us is perfect. Certainly not me. 😉

    I wasn’t. And that’s a good reason to increase the N of the survey. Technically speaking we’d need to collect at least 1000 blacks. That said, it’s about proportionate.

    The more interesting question is, do you disagree that about half of black Americans hate white people?

    OUR GOOD PEOPLE ARE A VULNERABILITY: HOW GOOD PEOPLE WERE UNDERMINED.
    I love how you feel. I wish how you felt were how more people felt. I love good people. Unfortunately, our good people are vulnerable to the enemy’s pretense of goodness, when they’re actually evil.

    Our country continued to be homogenous, ethnocentric, and fully integrated until about 1960. We had regular issues as the economy and industry changed us. But we remained ‘integrated’.

    The reason the enemy succeeded in undermine us and creating conflict requires a bit more explanation than I feel energized enough to write right now, but…

    Woke (Race Marxism) is just the most recent attempt to ‘destroy the institutions of western cultural production’ by generating conflict using the Marxist (class), neoMarxist(culture), Postmodern(truth), Feminist(sexes,family), Woke(Race) sequences of sedition to undermine the harmony we’d produced between the classes and sexes (and through integration other Europeans) into northern European **Trifunctional, Rule of Law, Natural law, Concurrent legislation, Common Law, Truth before Face, Duty before self, Christian Love and Charity, high trust, innovative, adaptive, prosperous civilization.***

    They did it on purpose by the ‘march thru the institutions’. They wrote, planned it, migrated here from Europe, financed it, and started with the academy, and from the academy to the media and to the government, and to education. Everything they do that they claim is virtue, instead claims our effort at peaceful integration as oppression.

    Why? Our western civilization is behaviorally costly both psychologically and emotionally. And whether or not other people are CAPABLE of that amount of self-regulation, self-discipline, delayed gratification, and mindfulness that ignores the trivialities and insults of others – they are clearly often, unwilling.

    Once it was clear that communism would not work, the class Marxists converted to race Marxists and then the race Marxists came to America to use American postwar opportunity and global dominance, and ‘freedom and Christian tolerance to intentionally destroy our culture from within.

    It took them seventy years. But perhaps. more interesting is that they did it by (a) our women, (b) immigration, because (c) western men have not changed substantially and still adhere to our Trifunctionalism the balance between the three sacred institutions of and all: God(Faith), Country(Constitution), and Guns(Military) surrounding the core institution: the nuclear family and individual responsibility.

    Cheers

  • DEFINING RACISM AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT –“Racism can only consist of presuming

    DEFINING RACISM AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT

    –“Racism can only consist of presuming the cost of a group stereotype’s attribute against an individual of that group AFTER that individual has paid the cost to demonstrate their personal positive deviation away from that specific group stereotype attribute to you.”– Luke Weinhagen @LukeWeinhagen

    You cannot judge an individual by the properties of a class, but you can judge a class by the properties of its individual members.

    In other words, it is illogical, when presented with individual information counter to the properties of a class, to treat the member of class with the properties of that class, instead of his or her demonstrated properties.

    It is not racism to discuss group differences and attempt to produce institutions and policy that assist in treating us as individuals and groups who require different training in order to reach the same mindfulness, competency, and success.

    It’s NOT racism to state that if a group of people hate you because of your race, that it’s only intelligent and practical to seek separation, to eliminate the conflict, and allow both groups to produce the formal and informal commons they prefer.

    It’s racism NOT to do either of those things. Including denying them such that people remain unhappy, in conflict, and deprived of human flourishing. (What you’re implying you prefer.)

    We must govern with the people we have, with the biology we have, the genetics we have, and the demographic distributions we have.

    Liars claim they are heroic when they just lack the courage to admit the truth, solve the problem, and assist mankind in achieving desired ends.

    The feminine, equalitarian, responsibility evading, ethic is just cowardice and fear and neuroticism to avoid the settling of conflicts between groups, by pretense that avoiding conflicts between individuals will scale. (it doesn’t.)

    Nothing on the left ‘scales’. That’s what it means to be a leftist. (successful empathizing but failed systematizing.)

    No more lies. Including lying by wishful thinking.

    That would require evidence by demonstrated competency. 😉

    Which would be nice, really.
    Most very smart people end up relatively unhappy for no other reason than outlier intelligence is alienating and lonely.

    Me? I’m gregarious, and kind of enjoy the common man. At least the working class. They don’t engage in pretenses like the midwits. 😉

  • IQ is the most accurate measure in the behavioral sciences, followed by the big5

    IQ is the most accurate measure in the behavioral sciences, followed by the big5/6 trait/facets, with stereotypes the most accurate measure in the social sciences.

    There are volumes and volumes and volumes on this subject and none of the professionals disagree. And certainly the people who author the testes don’t disagree. The disagreement is from people outside the field or people tangential to it (Psychology today) that have other motives.

    Just search amazon. And pick one of the academic sources. I don’t want to recommend ONE. But there are at least a dozen books that carry it. You will find the best information in research publications instead of books, and that’s just ‘google scholar is your friend’.
    I keep a reading list but that’s a bit nerdy for general consumption.

    There is negative value in leveling the playing field. There are humans that require more discipline and less discipline before they can learn increasingly counter-intuitive concepts, because of our genetic differences,

  • Black *average* IQ, whether in the states (84) or Africa(75) is a standard devia

    Black *average* IQ, whether in the states (84) or Africa(75) is a standard deviation lower than whites and asians. Meaning half of the population is incapable of military service, or anything other than simple manual labor, and that one-in-five is functionally disabled. (US IQ is higher than Africa because average African american is 20% white, and because of the northwest coast where most of the 500K american slaves were purchased from, is the highest IQ group).

    So it’s true that blacks with equal ability can compete with whites and asians:
    (a) group differences in aggression and criminality remain constant across classes
    (b) this can only be ameliorated by the church or military training. From our experience, the church, within black communities, did the job well. In the absence of the church, we must reform education to be more reflective of behavioral training by the church, and less so on less relevant ‘political’ nonsense that produces the opposite result. Physical, behavioral, mental, training are all necessary. And more so the lower on the neoteny/IQ distribution.

    I don’t make nature’s rules.
    I just try to figure out how to use them for human flourishing.
    And that requires depriving people of comforting deceits that prevent human flourishing.

  • IS IT EGO OR ANIMAL INSTINCT? Ego, arrogance, or confidence in pursuit of femini

    IS IT EGO OR ANIMAL INSTINCT?
    Ego, arrogance, or confidence in pursuit of feminine equalitarianism or masculine particularism is the same behavior. The feminine mind is confident it’s right and the masculine that it’s right. However, the sex difference in that moral intuition is merely the female desire to avoid the responsibility that would cause conflict is simply infantilization, while the male tolerance for conflict to take responsibility is adulthood.
    Sorry. All sex differences in behavior are reducible to this one question. (really)
    Question your intuition. It’s just hunter-gatherer animal instinct that’s talking. Not morality, not reason, not intelligence, not knowledge, not wisdom.
