—âEducation-associated genesâ? Iâm a bit skeptical that such are really verified.”—Rich Berger
It’s just a politically correct term for the 1000+ IQ correlated genes that have been discovered as yet. Most public estimations of IQ are done by degrees (a very bad proxy by the way), and by framing education related genes rather than IQ they circumvent criticism by the anti-IQ-measurement groups.
ARISTOTLE: THOSE WITHOUT AGENCY ARE BEASTS TO BE RULED From Alexander of Macedon by Peter Green
“He had the whole body of Greek civilized opinion behind him. Euripides held that it was proper (eikos) for âbarbariansâ to be subject to Greeks. Plato and Isocrates both thought of all non-Hellenes as natural enemies who could be enslaved or exterminated at will. Aristotle himself regarded a war against barbarians as essentially j ust.48 Such theories may well be dismissed as grotesque; but they are no more grotesque than de Gobineauâs concept of the Aryan superman. And grotesque or not, they have the power to compel belief, and thus to affect menâs lives in the most fundamental way. When Hitler exterminated the European Jews, he based his actions, precisely, on the belief that certain categories of mankind could be dismissed as sub- human â that is, like Aristotle, he equated them with beasts or plants.
For Aristotle, however, the brute or vegetable nature of barbarians had a special quality, which must have struck a responsive chord in his pupil. âNo one,â he wrote, âwould value existence for the pleasure of eating alone, or that of sex . . . unless he were utterly servileâ (i.e. slave or bar- barian). To such a person, on the other hand, it would make no difference whether he were beast or man. The key example he cites is the Assyrian voluptuary Sardanapalus (Assurbanipal): barbarians, it is clear, are to be despised above all because they live exclusively through and for the senses.
The purely hedonistic life, in fact, was something which Aristotle taught his pupil to regard as beneath contempt. Such a doctrine must have had a strong appeal for Alex- ander, who always placed a premium on self-control and self-denial (at least during the earlier stages of his career), and whose enthusiastic, impressionable nature reveals a strong hero-worshipping streak. (It made no odds to him whether his hero was mythical or contemporary: he may have modelled himself on Achilles, but he was equally ready to adopt the quick-stepping gait of his old tutor Leonidas.) The Alexander who ate so sparingly, who gave away the spoils of war with such contemptuous generosity, keeping little for himself, and who said he was never more conscious of his own mortality than âduring the time he lay with a woman or sleptâ50 â this, surely, was a man whose debt to Aristotleâs teaching and inï¬uence was fundamental. For good or ill, the years at Mieza left a permanent mark on him.
Aristotleâs advice on the respective treatment of Greeks and barbarians is, of course, capable of a more mundane interpretation: that in order to get the best out of those whom one intends to exploit, one must humour them far enough to win their cooperation. Greeks required to be treated as equals, to have their sense of independence – however illusory -â fostered with the greatest care. Asiatics, on the other hand, would only respond to, or respect, a show of rigorous authoritarianism â the Victorian district ofï¬cerâs creed. Whether Aristotle intended this lesson or not, it was one that Alexander learnt all too well. As we shall see, he applied it to every individual or group with whom he subsequently came in contact.

It’s highly flawed to use it imo for several reasons:
a) A guy can date outside his race and still want kids from a female of his own race: I sleep with black women and Asian women a lot yet would never have kids with a non-white.
b) Women on dating sites apply rational thinking to their dating preferences. A woman meeting a nice guy that’s not of her race in her every day life would care way less about his race as long as he’s not too ugly/dumb/poor.
c) if that graph was the absolute truth you’d see equal representations in real life: yet black man/white woman is way more prevalent than black woman/white man.
2) the 90% not feminist figure is stupid and only exists because of the way the question is asked and how women associate feminism with nagging, bald or pink-dyed hair activists. But 99% of Western women are feminists.Jul 21, 2018 5:24amARISTOTLE’S ETHNOCENTRISM

—“… Good propaganda does not need to lie, indeed it may not lie. It has no reason to fear the truth. It is a mistake to believe that the people cannot take the truth. They can. It is only a matter of presenting the truth to people in a way that they will be able to understand. A propaganda that lies proves that it has a bad cause. It cannot be successful in the long run. A good propaganda will always come along that serves a good cause. But propaganda is still necessary if a good cause is to succeed. A good idea does not win simply because it is good. It must be presented properly if it is to win. The combination makes for the best propaganda. Such propaganda is successful without being obnoxious. It depends on its nature, not its methods. It works without being noticed. Its goals are inherent in its nature. Since it is almost invisible, it is effective and powerful. A good cause will lose to a bad one if it depends only on its rightness, while the other side uses the methods of influencing the masses. We are, for example, firmly convinced that we fought the war for a good cause, but that was not enough. The world should also have known and seen that our cause was good. However, we lacked the effective means of mass propaganda to make that clear to the world. Marxism certainly did not fight for great ideals. Despite that, in November 1918 it overcame Kaiser, Reich, and the army because it was superior in the art of mass propaganda…” – Dr. Joseph Goebbels.

Adam. How many people know you well enough to understand your journey over the past twenty years? I mean. I’ve known you since maybe… 2010 at most? No one can accuse you ever of having a fixed perspective, or not experimenting with what life has to offer. I mean. damn. You’ve sort of explored it all. And that’s what makes your observations so interesting.
(To Adam’s friends: I love this man, and he has a depth of character that I’m envious of.)
1) To develop mental fitness and distance from our impulses (to develop agency)
2) To accumulate an inventory of human errors and bias so that we do not make them in our own lives, and are not affected by others who employ them.
3) To survey the sets of myths and paradigms (stories we tell ourselves) such that we can choose goals in our lives.
4) (the bad part) to find a verbal means of achieving some degree of the mindfulness that is trainable through religion(mythology), ritual (prayer or repetitious action), and self authoring (stoicism – a ritual), and meditation (a ritual in and of itself). Mindfuless serves as a sedative for animal impulse, without the soporific affect of chemicals
that interfere with processing in general..
As far as I know that is the end of philosophy. The rest is just left to religion(nonsense/lies) or science (decidability/truth).
Nearly all of the corpus of philosophy is reducible to fantasy moral literature (french), or fantasy psychological Literature (german), fantasy pseudoscientific literature (ashkenazi), or the attempt to develop scientific versions of those fields (english, American.)
The problem with science, law proper, and truth proper is that in matters of the personal and social we are not ambivalent neutral surveyors of the material – but seek only personal and group advantage in whatever we can filter from it to advance our interests.
Yet science and truth are uncomfortable and dehumanizing.
So to no small degree, philosophy is PRACTICED as the pseudoscience and pseudo-rationalism of finding excuses that comfort us given our genetic, social, economic, cultural, and temporal conditions without relying on the demands easily falsified and supernatural faith.
In other words, like religion, it’s therapeutic self medication – sedation.
