    Honesty, Intelligence, and Race

    Staying on message:
    1 – Not all peoples are equally disposed to speak truth before face.
    2 – The lower the group’s median IQ the less likely they are able to speak truth before face.
    3 – Some populations must rely on lying to advance their collectivist religious social and politcal systems (the abrahamic cults)
    4 – Truth before face is, aside from individual self determination (sovereignty), the single most important civilizational difference between the west (whites) and the rest.

    Why? Because every single institution we value and that provides us with such a competitive advantage, and provides such a higher standard of living and quality of life, depends on it – the origin of our law, or our empiricism of our science, arts, technoligy and medicine, especially our liberty and jurty and common concurrent law – all depend on this one foundation: truth before face regardless of cost.

    And what is the left advancing? Collectivism and Lying instead. In other words cultural suicide.

    And why are women so eager to advance collectivism face before truth and ly ing to cover it?

    Because it absolves them of responsibility for defense of the behavioral commons. And women evade responsibility as much as they pursue attention and consumption. Training women to not rely on antisocial behavior is just as important if not more important than training men not to. and that’s what we have failed to do.

    Now back to the paper:

    As if we needed more evidence. The only people on earth who speak truth before face. And the entire left’s program is meant to undermine it – as is nearly every woman in the west :(. ) It’s a paper by Kirkegaard with his usual zeal.

    –“Research shows that honesty correlates positively with intelligence. Similarly, there are racial differences in honesty, with Europeans being more honest than various other ethnic groups. It is currently unknown to what degree race differences in intelligence can explain the differences in honesty. …

    We replicate prior findings that honesty correlated with measures of intelligence (r = .38, 95% CI [.34, .41]) and that Blacks (d = -0.67, 95% CI [-.76, -.59]) and Hispanics (d = -0.4, 95% CI [-.50, -.31]) are less honest than Whites, and this holds whether honesty is measured by self-reports, interviewer-reports or by parent-reports.

    In addition, race differences in honesty remained between Blacks and Whites but not between Whites and Hispanics after controlling for intelligence. Differences between Blacks and Whites but not Whites and Hispanics were noticeably lower in self-reports (Blacks: d = -0.18 [-0.24, -0.11], Hispanics: d = -0.24 [-0.31, -0.17]) than parent-reports (Blacks: d = -0.43 [-0.52, -0.35], Hispanics: -0.24 [-0.33, -0.15]) and interviewer-reports (Blacks: d = -0.7 [-0.75, -0.64], Hispanics: -0.3 [-0.36, -0.25]).

    Cross-national comparisons were made using national IQ data and Hofstede’s cultural dimensions. Bayesian model averaging suggests that Hofstede’s individualism dimension (β = .64, PIP = 100%), national IQs (β = .25, PIP = 73.6%), and masculinity (β = -.35, PIP = 100%) predict differences in honesty between countries.

    (CD: Meaning? Collectivism breeds dishonesty.)

    Parking violations per diplomat were only predicted by national IQs (r = -0.28, p < .001), given that no other variable reached a posterior inclusion probability above 0% besides national IQs. Implications and theories concerning these findings are discussed.”–

    (CD: I’m going to fetch that data on parking violations per diplomat and add it to my Countries table of data.)

    Cheers

    Truth is, that men will use the feminine means of toxicity especially if they’re fundamentalist christians. Which, is one of those facts I wish I didn’t know. It simply reinforces my frustration that despite the positives that come from christian ethics, the christian teachings essentially teach people to lie, and when arguing to use the feminine method of argument. And I find this exasperating.

  • All ideologies, theologies, and nearly all philosophies, as well as their pseudo

    All ideologies, theologies, and nearly all philosophies, as well as their pseudoscientific equivalents promise a false or impossible discount or free ride or some other benefit if we all agree to the same socially constructed set of falsehoods or lies. Most of the time theses lies tell us we are fre of some responsibility that is difficult if we bear this false responsibility that is easy.

    As far as I know there are no remaining false promises other than pseudoscientific or economic that are believable by enough people to cause a persistent improvement in our behaviors and lies.

    I do believe I understand the only viable non false set of ideas that can, with effort inspire us to better behavior. But they demand those responsibilities we often seek to avoid. So until I’m able to find a sales pitch that works I have a hard time promoting it. 😉

    Mostly yes. I tend to state it differently, in that humans just WANT. They then NEGOTIATE. And they are only honest in that negotiation when it suits them. And all too often it only suits them within a relatively small pool of people, most of whom are family, close friends, or…

    Followup: If he wasn’t such an unpleasant sarcastic arrogant pr–k, it would be easier to forgive his overwhelming bias, ignorance, posturing and sophistry. But, returning what he gives, what should one expect from a failed massage therapist whose intellectual work product is a gossip rag take on book reviews of the enemy’s propaganda.

    So yeah. That’s how I really feel. 😉
    Sorry for using your occasion to vent a continous frustration.

    It’s not one post. It’s just the accumulated absurdity of his desperate attempts to evade the obvious. Today’s bit of nitwittery is casting marx as a failed lutheran, and his continued attempt to lay the blame on Hegel.

    –“Q: What exactly is preventing you from moving to France?”–

    Promoting the common illusion that the nice parts of Paris where the millionaires live, and the tourists spend their drachmas, is anything to do with the absolute slums that surround the isle de france like an encampment, and the absolutely depressing, poor, and unsafe disasters of the big cities (without even touching the smaller ones): Toulouse, Rennes, Lille, Lyon, Grenoble, Nice (OMG), Nantes, Marseille (Marseille has a crime rate five times higher than most other cities in France including a gun-related fatality approximately every four days (2.83 gun deaths per 100,000 residents). The city has around 30 homicides per year and 40% youth unemployment, which results in high levels of property and petty thefts.

    (a) Islamization, political unrest, and an oblivious government.
    (b) Riots, Strikes, Blockades, and “everything on fire” nights.
    (c) multiple cities with no go zones
    (d) relative hostility to entrepreneurship.
    (e) unbearable business regulations.
    (f) intolerable taxes.
    (g) the offensive authoritarian arrogance of the bureaucracy.

    If you’re a commoner france is great. If you’re competent and ambitious then there is no alternative to the anglosphere, with the american system simply unparalleled.

    When the French government approached me about opening a location in france they acknowledged all their issues – they didn’t even deny it – but they stated that they still needed to work on bringing business and particularly technology entrepreneurship to france. To which I responded – you cannot create a technology company that cannot turnover highly paid employees at will. The technolgoy marketplace requries continuous talent rotation that mirrors that “noise” of tech moving through the businesses and institutions in the economy.

    I’m met with Glazed eyes. 🙂

    So yeah.
