  • “Curt: If how are they able to run a nation (Israel) without imploding?”— How

    —“Curt: If how are they able to run a nation (Israel) without imploding?”—

    How long are the business cycle, the economic cycle, the generational cycle, the political cycle, the state cycle? Israel isn’t 100 years old yet. It’s heavily subsidized by the states. It’s militarily preserved by the states. At present the monarchies have more interest in ethnic alliance between jews and arabs than they have in ethnic alliance with Iran, since iran (ethnic persians), and Turkey (ethnic turks(mongolian) and iranics (kurds)) are the rising powers in the region, in opposition to the arabs and the north africans (proto-iranics). (The more I know about genetics the more I understaand the power of ethnocentrism and that civilzations and states are just expressions of ethnocentrism. And that empires are ethnocentric interests in producing trade.)

    So the question is, can they? How does Israel survive economically and strategically? How much longer will it survive demographically? The Arabs are just waiting them out.

    The only solution for Israel to survive is for all the world’s jews to move there, displace the Arabs, and it would be the Netherlands of the middle east, with about the same population density, same size economy, same extraordinary productivity, and from that position they could, like Rome, civilize the middle east – although through economics and imitation rather than war.

    Under that strategy, they can wait out Arab oil wealth. Islamists continue worldwide to reproduce faster than all other peoples, even if their rates of reproduction are lower. This is because Muslims reproduce and exist with the lowest capital (income) demands, the greatest substitution for family, socialization, and religious devotion for consumption.

    We don’t think of it that way but Islam is a very psychologically rewarding religion (addiction) because it is a very costly addiction. Think of it as Buddhism vs Xianity vs stoicism. How much time and how does each group spend self-regulating (in some ritual that produces mindfulness). Islam does the most with the least cognitive commitment and lowest adaptability cost.

    How much time does a protestant spend on competitive expression and materialism instead? How does a stoic do it? We all spend time somehow. We all spend our time somehow. All groups direct that time to something.

    Otherwise, the jews will continue to use the USA like they used Russia, and the pale, Spain, Germany, England, and Rome, and continue their bolshevik revolution here.

    I don’t see the Jewish identity as strong enough to form a nation when their group strategy is better satisfied by riding within and on host peoples.

    If for no other reason than they don’t produce enough people in the military caste (laboring and lower middle class) to create an army of at least 200K necessary to compete in the region.

  • A DIFFERENT UNDERSTANDING OF INTELLIGENCE – AND MAN The history of the evolution

    A DIFFERENT UNDERSTANDING OF INTELLIGENCE – AND MAN

    The history of the evolution of mankind is the incremental acceleration of adaptability due to periodic stresses. While we don’t study it, climactic stresses in Africa alone during the past five million years were challenging.

    So it is better to describe individual and group intelligence as the rate of individual and group adaptability, and group strategy, metaphysics(paradigm), mythology, tradition, and *method of argument* as regulating our adaptability to our group ability.

    Unfortunately, group strategy can enhance of limit group adaptability, and can advance it (european) or regress it (Islam).

    By using the model (paradigm) of adaptability to relate human biological, social, cognitive, and linguistic processes, we create commensurability across domains and produce a universal understanding of human behavior – thus assisting us in demonstrating that the entire human spectrum of tools (biological, social, cognitive, linguistic AND informational) is not only ‘relative’ but absolutely non-neutral.

    So I’ll take the opportunity to state once again:

    Differences in ability are neotenic and neurological. They may be nothing more than neoteny facilitating differential neurological growth.

    We have cannot yet identify genes determining intelligence, and those we find (thousands) appear to have tiny effect.

    That differences in cognitive adaptability or the distribution of it (memory vs adaptability vs prediction-innovation vs agency) appear to leave little or no evidence in the fossil record other than minor variation in the volume of the braincase.

    We have definite archeological evidence in the record of the evolution of tools and processes.

    We have definite biological evidence in the record of differences in gestation rate, maturity rate, depth of maturity, and self-regulation (neoteny) – which is the direction of investigation that would help us understand intelligence.

    We have definite biological evidence in isolated populations that the earliest people out of africa have the lowest cognitive rate of adaptation, and those people in highest stress environments (colder) the highest.

    And we have a definite recent record in the size of class distributions across human groups.

    And agrarianism obscured this evolution and it and possibly reversed it – which is my suspicion. And that only those groups that converted to manorialism (Rome, Germanic Europe, China) continued it. Agrarianism homogenized populations significantly, and limited evolution, in exchange for providing calories that allowed us a division of labor, specialization, and the application of our adaptation to the production of ‘tools, processes, and ideas’.

    From what I can ‘guess’ from the record, females innovate in neotenic expression along the calcium-melanin channel which appears to have a dramatic effect on rates of reproduction (the time at which a woman appears desirable and fertile). And males innovate in the adaptive expression along the cognitive specialization channel – which as far as I know evolved from throwing spears (or throwing anything). And males either inherit neoteny from females or self domesticate along the testosterone channel since ‘bullying’ has to be kept at an equilibrium where there is sufficient aggression and dominance expression to maintain the competitive ability for the family, clan, tribe, without creating unmanageable internal conflict. My suspicion is that neoteny is a purely female specialization since women (unfortunately) do not select men for it, and therefore women maintain an equilibrium of their neoteny versus demonstrated male dominance, limiting of outsiders outside female social superpredation (control).

    This is my current understanding of the evolutionary process and the differences in the sexes, races, subraces, groups, and classes.

    What it would imply is that the great filter is rather obvious: that any species that develops a division of labor and the returns on it that allow continuous adaptation into niches (division of labor) – and especially any group that develops democracy rather than ‘paternalism’, and does not continue natural selection, will devolve. We can see genetic devolution in the west in just 150 years. We can see genetic devolution in islam and everything it touces. Islam(judaism christianity) is the most desirable falsehood other than drugs.

  • As far as I know, intelligence is (like everything else) almost entirely genetic

    As far as I know, intelligence is (like everything else) almost entirely genetic. It’s early development biased. It’s controlled by a large number of REGULATORY rather than small number of protein-producing genes. The difference is purely neuronal. Of the neuronal difference its largely hippocampal and frontal. So a lot of things must go right for exceptional intelligence, and anything can go wrong.

    As far as I know nothing else is required of the paleolithic revolution (cognitively modern humans) other than an increase in IQ from the 50-60 (childlike but dangerous) range to the 70-80 range (unpleastant and hostile) to the 80-100 range (most of humanity), to the 100+ range (the people that make abstractions).

    As far as I know, the difference will not appear in changes in morphology.

    As far as I know cranial volume does appear in morphology and IQ.

    As far as I know just like spine and brain volume, developmental IQ is the resut of selection for neoteny (slowing development).

    As far as I know the races reproducte, mature, and have gestation rates that reflect this.

    As far as I know aboriginals isolated after the ice age increase in water levels have mid 60IQ’s

    As far as I know IQ roughtly translates to latitude – but I can’t yet determine if this is an agrarhian or pre-agrarian manifestation.

    As far as I know everyone woud have just GUESSED this prior to the second world war, and pseudoscience has tried desprately to suppress the obvious that science is not confirming.

    I know genetics have solved the Anthony-Renfrew debate, but any half-decent economist would have explained rather easily that IE had to evolve on the Eurasian Steppe, not in Anatolia. Or as Mainer’s say “Ya c’-hn’t get they-yah (evolve that) from hee-yah.” Always despised Renfrew as an anti aryanist for ideological reasons. Honestly, steppe life must have been pretty cool. In some ways, it still is.

    How about this: what is the capital value of a high trust society? What about 15 points of IQ? What about ethnocentirc harmony? Waht about rule of law? What about the civil society?

    You get what you measure.We don’t measure capital. We measure income. We do that to obscure the destruction (consumption) of genetic, institutional, cultural, informational, behavioral capital.

    How do you price those things? Well, it’s not impossible. And the cost makes almost every other cost pale in comparison.

  • Well, since as far as I know, we don’t have any known hittite dna we don’t know

    Well, since as far as I know, we don’t have any known hittite dna we don’t know that. The AFAIK Armenians are iranic peoples (southern to eastern), not europeans (Northern-to-western).

    Everything I know of says that the hittites survivors moved south into the levant and eventually outbred and are lost. It’s more correct to say that the lebanese, georgians, armenians, kurds, iranians, are the closest we can claim to indigenous people of the region and the hitties were a conquering minority of european invaders whose arrival created a dispersal (mass migration) out of anatolia.

    The marsh arabs (semites) probably arrived from the southern route via the arabian peninsula, red sea, and persian gulf rather than eastern route from the indus river back across the iranian plain and into the cuacuses.

    The indo european langauge evolves (as I undersetand it) from these proto-iranic people and the steppe people cooperating-competing with larger herds made possible by the invention of animal-drawn carts (wagons->chariots) – yurts on wheels – that allowed them to take supplies with them onto the steppe. They developed lactose tolerance into adulthood by substituting fresh water consmption for milk consumption, and gaining the 40% more calories from that than traditional food sources by doing so.

    Whatever the relationship, the grops shared a language and culture but still separated and behavied differently as they expanded iranic-east into india (repeating the iranic agrarian invasion in india of 4000 bc, and european-west (repeating the agrarian invasion of europe in 7000 bc.)

    The metal-economy in the ancient world was much like the oil economy in the modern world. Food was the subsistence economy. Metal made states and armies possible. States and armies made professionals possible. Professionals made invention possible, and so on.

  • A REPEAT OF HISTORY —“Curt: Who were the “Sea People”?— Ancestral aryans spr

    A REPEAT OF HISTORY

    —“Curt: Who were the “Sea People”?—

    Ancestral aryans spread across europe. The group that spread into anatolia were the Hittites. They rose to power about equal to the egyptians and the mesopotamians. But the hittites overplayed their hand and like today’s Turks) sought westward expansion.

    The various people of the north mediterranean allied and took advantage of it, and destroyed them. And they found it so rewarding they took out everyone in the levant. But subsequently they overplayed their conquest-hand, and like the Romans ‘ran out of other peoples’ civilizatoins to raid and the socialists (ran out of other peoples money to spend).

    This raiding resulted in the bronze age collapse, and the first (recorded) dark age. Every civlization in the east mediterranean disappeard, with a weak mesopotamia and egypt the only surviving civs.

    While mesopotamia eventually recovered, egypt only survived and never regained her previous glory. The hittites were exterminated, as were the Minoans and every other peole along the eastern med coast. The greeks even lost writing. and the story of the trojan war is, like king arthur, a story developed during those dark ages that eventually evolved into the ancient world’s equivalent of the bible.

    The ‘age of transformatino’ or what we see as ‘the great flowering of civiization and the beginning of our religious traditions’ occurs (just like the enlightenment) as they came out of that dark age. Taht’s why so much happens from 800-300bc. Just like so much happens in europe from 1400 to 1900 ad.

    An Insight Worth Repeating

    —“What I find interesting is that the reproductively favorable traits: Height, Light Skin, Blue Eyes, Blonde Hair, Sociability, Agency, Milk, and Grain tolerance end up in Europeans thus maintaining SIGNAL neoteny without sexual neoteny as in east Asia. Despite the fact that these traits evolved in different places in different groups, europeans collected them. and it’s because of the range of eurasian genetic experimentation in varying climates and conditions. This is one of the key insights I’ve had. East Asians overplayed neoteny. Africans, Austronesians (impulsivity) and Semites underplayed neoteny (aggression). Europeans collected highly desirable features abandoning primitive rapid maturity, deep morphology, and lack of agency (Africa) without sacrificing reproductive desirability (east Asians), or carrying reproductive undesirability to extremes (Australians). In other words, Europeans selected for symbolic neoteny without significant suppression of sexual maturity. Thus creating a balance between impulsive and rapidly maturing Africans, and calm slowly maturing east Asians. It’s like the three little bears: “this one is just right”.”—

    The most useful thing is to reform your thinking: historians wrote from a time frame. But in realistic terms, humans spread lightning fast, adapted lightning-fast, started speciating lightinng fast, and re-hybridized lightning fast. And it appears that it’s larely due to technological innovation on one hand and selection for adaptability (intelligence) on the other.

    During this entire time, migration and trade existed and was interesting and it was profitable. Because trade is always mre profitable than production. It’s just a far higher opportunity cost.

    Agrarianism wasn’t particularly good for intelligence, but it freed up the intelligent folks to work on intelligent things.

    We have, with the industrial revolution, freed up not so intelligent folks to work on unintelligent things. 😉

    Island 120’s.

    Given that I undrstand consiousness as a (thin) tool life evolved for the purpose of creating returns on social cooperation (envisioning otehrs minds), I tend to take not only emotions, but consiousness out of the process of analysis entirely, and see man as a trial and error calculator exploiting every possible opportnity for caloric returns.
