    Of course. That is science. How then to apply it given the circumstances is the only question.

    And I can’t understand why you can’t understand the difference between the universal first principle of causality of all subsequent behaviors,(science) and the resulting variation of behavior (applied science) that suits the interests of each polity.

    So again, you’re talking about science vs applied science. I realize you’re talking about application instead of the science itself.

  • THE RIGHT DOESN’T UNDERSTAND ME AT ALL: SCIENCE VS APPLIED SCIENCE I think it’s

    THE RIGHT DOESN’T UNDERSTAND ME AT ALL: SCIENCE VS APPLIED SCIENCE
    I think it’s funny that the right chastises me for holding a humorous rational discussion with some BLM activists (who were smart, talented, and skilled by the way – unlike so many on the right.) They view this as tratorious rather than practical. And they are selfish enough that they fail to understand that all groups have grievances that have resulted from the false promises of the marxist-progressive-feminine- credentialist movements of the 20th century that attempted the impossible under the pretense of endless growth and the blank slate. Very often, you can’t solve your own problems without solving the problems of others with whom you are in conflict.

    I might be a race realist in the context of politics but that doesn’t mean I’m a racist in the negative sense as unsympathetic or universally critical of other peoples – just the opposite. I want us all to get along and cooperate even if that takes smaller more homogenous polities to do so. And I myself, might want to live in a small ethnically homogenous polity befitting my northern european preferences. But that’s all. And even then I’d be more comfortable with my peers in my class worldwide than I might be with a normal distribution of my people. That’s normal for intellectuals.

    Most of us would like a homogenous family life, a homogenous class social life, and a homogenous political life and the luxury of a heterogenous economic life. But those things all emerge in any urban or rural territory as people naturally sort into those groups. The problem arises when trying to create universal rules and laws for heterogeneous populations with different abilities and therefore needs. For anglos the adage that “god is an englishman” applies. But it’s the same for all populations. Our religions, myths, traditions, norms, and institutions are an expression of the needs of our civilization in the context of our demographic distributions (abilities and stages of development)

    There is a difference between the science (what I do) and applied science (forming polities using that science). Our motto is ‘let a thousand nations bloom’ for a reason. It’s in our mutual interests to build polities economies societies and families that suit our demographic differences and degree of genetic cultural technological and institutional development.

    If you wish I was a ‘white power’ advocate, I mean, even if that were what I think is best for humanity, europeans, and maybe myself, that doesn’t mean the science differs. The science just tells us how to make different polities, and the consequences of our choices.

    And it does so by ending the false promise that these collectivist and universalist nonsense religions are ever possible. Diversity creates demand for authority to resolve differences that either cannot be solved because of demographic differences or would better be solved by different polities where similarities are advantags by trade and differences are ameliorated by homogeneity.

    I don’t exist and no science exists to solve a preference. A science exists and I exist for the production of decidability independent of context – something that we call truth. I exist only to provide people with the truth necessary to organize economies, societies, and polities sufficiently to obtain their needs, wants, and preferences without causing conflict and warfare with others doing the same.

    Affections.

    –“the statement that “epigenetics aren’t hereditary in humans” aligns with the predominant scientific consensus. Most epigenetic marks, such as DNA methylation, are largely reset during gamete formation, which means they are not typically passed from one generation to…

    Or quanta are discrete because of marginal differences necessary for the formation of stable relations and therefore we can describe them digitally (operationally) rather than analog. Yet brcause wo lack knowledge we can only describe their continuous behavior in time mathematically because mathematics is limited to the statistical despite all operations being described computationally.
