  • Q: “Do Caucasians age faster?”

    THE CORRECT ANSWER: YES, OUR *SKIN* DOES AGE FASTER. Aging in humans in particular, because we are long lived animals, is due largely to accumulated cellular degeneration. Of the three Major Races Asian and Black skin is THICKER, more COMPACT, and Ages More Slowly than White Skin. Asian and black skin has thicker and more compact dermis than white skin, with the thickness being proportional to the degree of pigmentation. This likely contributes to the lower incidence of facial rhytides in Asians and blacks. In addition, darker skin types are thought to have more cornified cell layers and greater lipid content compared to white stratum corneum. The major cell type of the dermis is the fibroblast, which synthesizes the main structural elements of the dermis. Black skin has been found to have more numerous, larger, and more nucleated fibroblasts, smaller collagen fiber bundles, and more macrophages than white skin.29 Chronological aging reduces the life span of fibroblasts; their potential for division being lower in the elderly. Fibroblast functionality and reactivity likely contribute to both the aging phenomena and abnormal scarring. See Scientific Paper: Aging Differences in Ethnic Skin

    —“What are some examples of an evolutionary government?”—

    THE CORRECT ANSWER

    The most evolutionary and durable government in the modern world is the Anglo which in english, british, american, canadian, austrialian, and new Zealand versions has gone through multiple reformations and civil wars resulting in little other than revision in the contract between the government and the nobility and the militia. In other words, monarchy, multi house government representing each of the classes, under rule of law (natural law) has survived the longest. And there is no limit to this method of government other than possessing a population that will tell the truth in court, and a bureaucracy that will eschew corruption.

    Now, when people ask this question I assume that they are asking what is the best form of government, and the answer is not what they expect: that which solves the problems of the present without creating more problems in the future.

    As far as I know Rome has not been improved upon. (And can’t be except outsourcing all functions of the bureaucracy to companies.).

    1 Rule of Law (the state my not escape natural law)

    2 Monarchy (judge of last resort) with multiple Houses for the Classes.

    3 A Universal Militia and property required for enfranchise-ment.

    4 Switch to Authoritarianism in Times of War.

    5 Redistribute heavily in times of windfalls.

    6 Maintain a meritocracy (market) when neither at war nor having windfalls.

    7 Reallocate the means of production if they become cal-cified.

    Why? This system adapts to all circumstances.

    –Q:Curt, Is the white race violent naturally or were they taught to be?”— Quora User

    ( https://www.quora.com/Is-the-white-race-violent-naturally-or-were-they-taught-to-be/answer/Curt-Doolittle )

    I’m going to give you the best, most scientific answer that is currently available. You may or may not like it. But to the best of my knowledge it’s unassailable.

    1 – The white race is empirically LESS violent than all other races. (sorry. fact.) We currently attribute this to the facts that (a) limited survival of the underclasses in harsh winters, (b) the aggressive hanging of up to 1% of the population every year (heavy intolerance for crime), (c) high sexual dimorphism combined with lower levels of testosterone and therefore lower levels of impulsivity and aggression, (d) higher demonstrated creativity which appears to be a genetically influenced personality trait (curiosity, ‘worry’, and industriousness). (e) greater freedom (for men) to compete in the dominance hierarchy.

    2 – The white race is empirically superior at the application technology, voluntary cooperation, planning, and maneuver to the use of violence, thereby allowing smaller numbers of warriors to defeat superior and wealthier numbers.

    3 – The white race has empirically used the application of violence to create markets that in turn increase wealth.

    The white race’s superiority in ancient and modern ages is because of the use of violence and technology to create markets.

    4 – The white race’s superiority at producing arts, sciences, and technologies is because of their discovery of ‘deflationary truth’. (What we call scientific or empirical truth, that evolved from ‘reporting’ or ‘testifying’ rather than opining, elaborating, or conflating – regardless of cost to the self or others.)

    5 – The white race’s discovery of ‘deflationary truth’ was caused by the use of the militia, that indoctrinated all free men into the use of military and technological epistemology. This means that all mean of property were trained to some degree, and all the wealthier families were professionally trained, to use horse, bronze, and wheel, to maneuver.

    6 – The white race’s use of militia forced meritocracy, and meritocracy forced ‘sovereignty’, and sovereignty forced the natural law of voluntary reciprocity, and use of the natural law forced markets in everything: the jury, freedom of association, of cooperation, of cooperative production, of reproduction (Marriage), of production of commons (government), of polities (competing rule).

    7 – The white race (North Sea Peoples) evolved the only government without governors: Rule of Law, by Natural Law, incrementally discovered by independent professional judges, and recorded in the Common Law of Torts, with judicial decidability provided by the changes in state of Property in Toto, where Property in Toto was determined by the bearing of costs to obtain an interest without imposing a cost upon the costs born by others. This form of law evolves faster than all alternatives, and leaves the least opportunity for the evolution of all forms of parasitism and predation. (Or it did until 20th democracy eliminated Rule of Law.)

    8 – So to answer the question, while whites are demonstrably less violent, they are demonstrably more cooperative, with demonstrably higher trust in one another, producing lower risk and friction, allowing greater risk, allowing greater returns, and thereby evolving technologies both institutional, normative, commercial, and technological, faster than all other civilizations. This is why the west, despite being on the edge of the bronze age, evolved fastest in the ancient world, and fastest in the modern world, with the dark ages of religiously enforced ignorance causing a thousand year delay in world innovation.

    9 – However, it is probably more correct to view white people as more patient and disciplined and industrious – probably due to four or more millennia of selection pressures above the 40th parallel – and therefore suppressing petty violence in exchange for expression of superior exceptional violence. But again, this may be for the simple reason that except for Han, Korean, and the Japanese, White People are the most genetically homogeneous, genetically isolated, genetically domesticated, for the simple reason that they have systematically eradicated their lower classes.

    10 – The white race was able to drag mankind out of ignorance, superstition, tyranny, poverty, starvation, and disease, one civilization at a time, by the application of sovereignty (property), markets, technology, truth, using violence to do so. Evolution is unkind to primitive organisms. primitive social organizations, and primitive ideas.

  • More Dismantling of Socialist Fallacies

      (a) There is a vast difference between the state-finance sector, and the entrepreneurship-venture capitalist sector. There are severe issues with the state-finance sector. they have everything to do with credit and political manipulation, and nothing to do with entrepreneurship and investment. The injustice is largely in credit sector in the usa, not the entrepreneurial. (b) The stock market provides a lottery effect for entrepreneurs, and access to capital by which large companies can offload research and development, and reward innovators. There is a reason that the stock market is in the USA and the Bond market in London, and heavy industry in Germany, and military industry in Russia: risk-reward. (c) The venture capitalist industry is marginally profitable, but when it is profitable it is very profitable. However, because of this lottery effect, many, many companies are started and much innovation happens. Meanwhile calcification occurs at established companies as rents are maximized by employees, management, unions, creditors. (d) —“You leap to the conclusion that the best capitalists must innovate, which is an incorrect leap. “— Not sure if you’re being dishonest here but I am saying ALL entrepreneurs must innovate, and all capitalists (financial sector) must constantly search for innovators. The reason is that it is nearly impossible to preserve capital at regular rates of inflation. Today, speculating on commodities and investing in property and investing in consumer and business debt provides the principle means by which the financial sector prevents LOSSES. So this is the problem with leftist thinking (people who have never had money or responsibility) it’s that the central problem of making money is entrepreneurial. The central problem of HOLDING money is preventing losses from the continuous process of inflation the government uses to maintain employment. (e) —“What has the capitalist actually “produced”? — You are falling into the error that production has value rather than organizing people to invest, produce, distribute, and exchange. In other words, what do distributors produce? What do retailers and wholesalers produce, what do investors produce, and what do owners, management and staff produce? the answer is that all of us transform state, but only the LEAST SKILLED transform materials. Meanwhile all of the rest is transforming TIME using incentives, using opportunity and money. (f) People aren’t interested in just profits. There is no evidence of it. Entrepreneurs and venture capitalists are interested in doing good for family, friends, customers, and society, because status signaling is the only meaningful reward once you have wealth. (g) as far as I can tell it’s not capitalists (entrepreneurs) that are parasitic but the financial sector, politicians, and unions and socialists. IT is very clear to any of us who have had wealth and responsibility how childlike and victims of Dunning-Kruger overconfidence that well intentioned fools are. It is very very difficult to build a company, you do it at huge risk to yourself, your health, and our family and your investors. And almost all of them fail. The lottery effect of a market encourages people to take risks and fail. If you eliminate the lottery effect of the market then there is no incentive to take risks given the rate of failure.

  • Evolutionary Origins of Moral Intuitions

    Humans are demonstrably amoral (both predatory and productive) as we see fit in the moment. If this was not true we would not need so many institutions to train people on the one hand; and manners, norms, traditions and laws to assist us in cooperating; and parents, neighbors, police, judges, generals and soldiers to insure those manners, norms, traditions, and laws. We feel (almost all of us) the instinct to lie/cheat/steal/kill, just as we feel (almost all of us) the instinct to tell the truth, to transact honestly, to avoid imposition of costs, and avoid harm. Just as we feel (almost all of us) the instinct to invest in future cooperation and engage in signaling. The simple truth is that we are so exceptional at creating manners, ethics, morals, traditions, laws and institutions of their defense, that it is almost always inadvisable to violate them rather than engage in productive cooperation, no matter how limited the value or returns on cooperation are to us. That evolution has provided us with the emotions of pride and fulfillment and shame and fear, when we demonstrate those moral and immoral actions, is simply evolution’s expansion of offspring-defense to the rest of the band, and tribe (now community). And the value of that expansion of that trait of kin-selection to what we call ‘morality’ is the result of nothing more than the danger of being outcast versus the (absurdly high) rewards of cooperation. Language evolved (it appears) to increase the (absurdly high) rewards of cooperation. The adage “many hands make light work” doesn’t include a metric, but Adam Smith gave us one: divsion of labor does not merely increase linearly, but logarithmically such that the labor of one person when spread to ten is on the order of ten THOUSAND times more productive. In simple terms the better your language(correspondence), the better your verbal ability (iq), the better your division of labor (institutions of property), ad the greater your suppression of free riding, parasitism and predation (crime), the faster you will produce, the more calories you will capture in relation to output, and the more offspring you can afford, the more advanced tools and weapons you can produce. Hence why tolerance for milk (40% increase in calories form the same production) plus horse+wheel+plus bronze), allowed a small population north of the black sea to spread from spain to china. ANd why guns, germs, steel, law, and accounting allowed a small population to rapidly rule and transform the world. The primary problem is that we wish to remain children with a steady state and little stress, when it is the continuous conquest of stresses that provides evolutionary adaptation and innovation. In other words, our moral sensations are evolutionarily correct, but our work sensations are evolutionarily counter-productive. You cannot save your way out of poverty, nor avoid work your way into prosperity.
