    (FB 1542260237 Timestamp) WESTERNERS ARE DIFFERENT – SCIENCE ERODES EQUALITARIAN MYTHS Twentieth-century cousin marriage rates explain more than 50 percent of variation in democracy across countries today. Political institutions vary widely around the world, yet the origin of this variation is not well understood. This study tests the hypothesis that the Catholic Church’s medieval marriage policies dissolved extended kin networks and thereby fostered inclusive institutions. In a difference-in-difference setting, I demonstrate that exposure to the Church predicts the formation of inclusive, self-governed commune cities before the year 1500CE. Moreover, within medieval Christian Europe,stricter regional and temporal cousin marriage prohibitions are likewise positively associated with communes. Strengthening this finding, I show that longer Church exposure predicts lower cousin marriage rates; in turn, lower cousin marriage rates predict higher civicness and more inclusive institutions today. These associations hold at the regional, ethnicity and country level. Twentieth-century cousin marriage rates explain more than 50 percent of variation in democracy across countries today. https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/11/twentieth-century-cousin-marriage-rates-explain-50-percent-variation-democracy-across-countries-today.html

    (FB 1542290125 Timestamp) Mesopotamian (Semitic) literature is underclass the same way that greek literature is upper class and roman literature (and english for that matter) is middle class. River lands and Forests are wonderful. Deserts suck. People are ignorant, dirty, superstitious poor, and tribal. Disease is rampant. Violence endemic. Thieving heroic. There is a vast difference between the wealthy and the poor. This is not so true in western civilization for geographic and demographic reasons. Just as it was not true in east asia. Just as it was less true in india. So while western lit is heroic (early european, aryan european, greek, roman… all of these are heroic literatures. They are not the submissive literatures of the mesopotamians and the egyptians. Whatever happens along the euphrates and the nile, we can certainly see in Gobekli Tepe and in all of the cities in the near east. Submission. This is not the literature of the hittites (anatolians), old europeans (balkans), There is a relationship between the russian steppe people, the mongols, and the turkic raiders, in levels of development and harshness of nature, but also an influence and more genetic similarity with the other post-ice-age peoples of europe, which were more influential via the scandinavians, pole-germans, germans, and even french. The church came into slavic peoples without being able to create an extractive political order as they were in europe. The bad people were the boyars, not the church. Where europeans took out their anger on the church and the aristocracy, americans did it on the aristocracy, europe in general, but were fully protestant and lacking central church political power, so without need to rebel against. During the period where east slavic people would have rebelled they had ‘better enemies’ to rebel against than the church. SO they did. Not very difficult really once you understand it but it has been very hard for me to understand it for some reason. So, the literature of suffering seems to be a continental thing, where the scandinavians are just pagan in spirit still. Germans are nauseating sometimes because of it. Russians nihilistic. And americans (and brits) have no cognizance of it whatsoever. Because we believe the world is under our control if we want it to be. So I am hostile to the submissive narratives for our people. Tragedy is a better substitute (and a western invention by the way), and tragedy calls upon us to fight together, not just suffer.

    (FB 1542494547 Timestamp) Understanding the white counter-narrative: we compete by high quality commons – that is our civilizational strategy. In urban density, where we not only have to domesticate our own underclasses over whom we have “some” status signal leverage, but vast immigrant underclasses, over whom we have “no” status signal leverage, we are forced to flee to lower density to produce those high quality commons. As density increases opportunity cost decreases and consequently opportunity deprivation by signaling is decreases. So normative degeneration is endemic in urban areas – because it’s affordable – while normative degeneration in less urban areas is intolerable. Meanwhile these underclasses whether kin or not, consume those accumulated commons like locusts, leaving Baltimores, Detroits, NY’s, LA’s and Oaklands in their wake. And because we have no right of DISASSOCIATION we cannot organize to resist their consumption of those commons we produce. The more dense the population the more the commons is “someone else’s problem”. The more sparse the population the more the commons is my problem. Hence urban demand for authority and rural demand for sovereignty. Once you ‘see it’ you can’t ‘unsee’ it. We are producing commons that attract wild animals, and we are forbidden by the state-academy-financial-sectors from depriving them of customers to feed on the commons we create – that none of them can. They think they’re creating something. But they are just speed-consuming the accumulated common capital of western civilization with every breath they take. The only solution is the restoration of voluntary disassociation and the markets will do the rest.

We may be seeing this happening at an unconscious level. Native speakers at a low brain level realize they are behind enemy lines so to speak. I know from experience movie quotes and childhood TV provide coded speech a non native could never train to understand. As an aside movie quotes are very powerful as they carry a whole story along with them.

    (FB 1542397477 Timestamp) MEME LINGO AS AN EXPRESSION OF ASPIRATIONS TO SPECIATE English has attained, in the post WWII world, the status of a lingua Franca, or trade/diplomatic language. There are sound economic rationale to have such a language, and historical rationale for that language to be English. Simply put, there are a host of transaction costs that can be minimized or avoided if we adopt a common language, for common purposes. But to those of us who speak English as a first language, there are a whole host of NEW transaction costs entailed both in being intelligible to foreigners and in foreigners being intelligible to us… Our language’s status as global lingua franca vastly aids and speeds the invasion and colonization of our lands. Our private thoughts and communications are readily understood by alien elements, at home and abroad. Our ability to discern ingroup from out is greatly degraded. Our ears are assailed by constant tirades of malicious, dishonest, out-group critique. For all of these reasons, and more, we are rapidly evolving our own non-mutually intelligible idioms, in the form of meme lingos filled with euphemisms, jargon, and inside jokes. And it’s not just us. My parents, who are still very much plugged into university-educated SWPL culture, have been adopting a progressively more idiosyncratic lexicon and usage my entire life, to the point that the way they talk, though still intelligible to me, sounds increasingly jarring and foreign (though it is no doubt soothing and familiar within their circles…) This process is being accelerated by, for example, internet censorship, as we are forced to innovate especially our expressions of derision faster than that can be identified, understood, and suppressed by the implaccable racial enemy. So my prediction is English will continue to variagate, into a standard “global” variety, and a bunch of regional and subcultural dialects, which will eventually become wholly unintelligible, separate, languages.
