    Funds don’t produce differences in education. Period. They merely sort neighborhoods by income. Instead Parents and genes do. Fixing parents and genes is … effectively impossible.

    MORE NEOTENY:
    –“In other words, children who learn to walk later are (eventually) less fat, less ADHD, higher in educational attainment, higher in intelligence, and apparently bipolar. The correlations are quite weak, this is not a strong genetic relationship. Nevertheless, this pattern of results mostly makes sense from a life history perspective where evolution can tune organisms to either develop well or develop fast. Those that take more time to develop reach a higher level of eventual performance.”–

    Thanks. And yes I understand the comprehensibility problem. It’s usually over time and with repetition that I learn to reduce the way I construct and weave together ideas to something ordinary people can understand. But the truth is that I consider people like you my audience.…

    And a high school audience.

    “Title: Individual Success Comes from Working Together as a Society, Made Possible by Heroes Working for the Common Good

    The author is making a few key points:

    While focusing on individual success is practical and leads to the best results for individuals, the economy, and politics, no one succeeds completely alone. All human achievements depend on being part of a society that provides resources and has rules.

    The author disagrees with Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics” (rules for how robots should behave). The author thinks these rules only work if society creates the right conditions for them.

    How far into the future people think (called “time preference”) when making decisions depends on how well society provides shared resources. This affects things like preserving genetic traits, physical appearance, civilization, and culture over time.

    Although it might seem like this view goes against wanting a country for a specific ethnic group (an “ethnostate”), the author argues that it actually supports this idea. Having the power to get people to be patient and think long-term leads to the best shared resources for the past, present, and future.

    For the author, “Whiteness” means individuals being responsible for things that benefit both themselves and society. It means respecting ancestors, investing in shared resources now, and passing on resources to future generations. This allows continuous improvement through a culture of pursuing truth, excellence, beauty, cooperation, and heroically overcoming challenges.

    The author believes understanding these points provides a scientific and inspiring worldview. It can be the basis for laws and a natural religion to preserve European people, their connection to their ancestors, and nature.”

    Title: Individual success comes from working together as a society, which is made possible by people being heroes for the common good

    The author is making a few main points:

    While focusing on individual success is practical and leads to the best outcomes for individuals, the economy, and politics, no one succeeds entirely on their own. All human achievements depend on being part of a society that provides resources and has rules.

    The author qualifies Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics” (rules for how robots should behave). The author thinks these rules only work if society creates the conditions for them.

    How long-term people think (called “time preference”) when making decisions depends on how well society provides shared resources. This affects things like preserving genetic traits, physical traits, civilization, and culture over time.

    Although it may seem like this view goes against wanting an ethnostate (a state or country for a particular ethnic group), the author argues the opposite is true. Having the power to get people to be patient and think long-term leads to the best shared resources for the past, present and future.

    For the author, “Whiteness” means individuals being responsible for things that benefit themselves and society as a whole. It means paying debts to ancestors, investing in shared resources in the present, and passing on resources to future generations. This allows continuous improvement through a culture of pursuing truth, excellence, beauty, cooperation, and heroically overcoming challenges.

    The author believes understanding these points provides a scientific and inspiring worldview. It can be the basis for laws and a natural religion to preserve European people and their connection to their ancestors and nature.”

    No I’m calling you out for the fraud of attempting to justify your burdening others with you genetic detritus thereby continuing the expansionary increase of the cost of your poor genes, poor character, poor upbringing, poor behavior, and deficient performance onto society and polity because you couldn’t both keep your legs closed, develop the character and economic security for motherhood, make yourself desirable for a man before and after reproduction, and hold a family together so that you weren’t a burden upon others who clearly rejected you as did your husband or boyfriend, or lover, or friend with benefits, or one night stand, or participant in the train that ran though your bedroom each night with regularity.
