  • If you want me to analyze any people’s history I can find good in those who held

    If you want me to analyze any people’s history I can find good in those who held kinship territory, and not find good in those who didn’t. It’s really that simple.

    If your kin are not disciplined enough to hold territory they will not be disciplined enough to create competitieve commons.

    If they cannot create competitive commons there will be nothing to examine – no record of their existence – to comment upon.

    Commons create intergeneral capital. Kin groups (genes) create intergenerational capital. And to some degree you must trade off one against the other.

    Of course as always, the more eugenic your people the better their history.

    —“Curt Doolittle thoughts on the Dutch?”— They started with a post-pastoralist, migration period ,north sea gene pool untouched by urbanization (urbanization is dysgenic due to lower cost of opportunities. Cities are a trade-off). They started the organized application of manorialism first, and were at it the longest (commons). (And in some sense northern europeans seem to have practiced some variation on manorialism at least back to the corded ware era.) They built necessary and survival-dependent commons early (technology and commons). They built a dominant trading state with a tiny population and small territory using a navy (technology and commons ) They produced some of the finest arts in the late medieval and early modern world (technological innovation in the arts). They avoided the problems of immigration despite their tolerance and trade. (Heavy normative demands) And as far as I know they were (until immigration) the best gene pool on earth for having done so. (see height and skull size) They have taken the pathetic disease of postwar virtue signaling to extremes and committed suicide. (I would live there but I’d be in jail for violating the speed limit so often. I build up hundreds of dollars of tickets every time I go there. lol)

  • How Will Iq Skeptics And Social Justice Advocates React If Genome Wide Association Studies Find Strong Genetic Correlations That Explain Much Of The Average Iq Variation Between Population Groups And Between Individuals?

    THE STATE OF THE SCIENCE

    The evidence exists, however, the causes are more obvious: 1) the size of the underclasses. and 2) neotonic(pedomorphic) evolution – meaning the retention of childhood features, and 3) transfer of female verbal acuity to males because of pedomorphic evolution.

    Cold Climates, Agrarianism, Manorialism, and the raw Capital Costs of Tools (metals) needed to survive in those conditions, in addition to the aggressive hanging of the underclasses for more than a thousand years, allowed both upward redistribution of calories and reproduction, and the downward population of labor by the middle genetic classes.

    So by the time of the industrial revolution (if not the literacy revolution) europe (and west asia) had vast stores of underutilized human capital. However, both had to break free of the church and the bureaucracy which had made the vast majority of capital “dead” (static) and in support of rent seeking (church bureaucracy and chinese imperial bureaucracy).

    For the rest of the world, they have been unsuccessful at one or both of two factors: either (a) decimating the underclasses, and (b) developing deflationary grammars (methods) in the sequence math, logics, reason, empirical law (tort), and science.

    West europeans and east asians and ashkenazi were able to limit the size of their underclasses and to force upward redistribution of reproduction. East asians have the highest Neoteny, West Europeans, and then Ashkenazi. And less visible testosterone levels to equal more visible morphology(features).

    This is the primary difference between the races and subraces: Degree of neoteny, and distribution of male and female traits (brain structures) between the genders. Strangely enough, in the Ashkenazi they have nearly reversed it. Which is why they have such exceptional verbal (if not spatial) skills.

    So that’s the state of the science as I understand it.

    in other words, the greatest material differences are driven by the size of the underclasses, and therefore the median distribution in the gene pool, and therefore the language, norms, traditions, and institutions necessary or the persistence of such a gene pool with such a distribution.

    All of this is very simple. The marxist-postmodernist-feminist attempt at the second dark age – this time of pseudoscience – just made us lose a century and a half to their deceptions.

    –“QUESTION: Are Italians European?”—(a follower) This is one of those ethnic questions that’s misleading. Because it confuses the modern state of italy, with the italian peninsula with the people who live there, which include french, swiss german, german, austrian, northern italian (germanic), and southern italian (mediterranean and greek). Southern italians (especially from Naples south) are of greek and anatolian origins. Northern Italians whether very early (Etru) , Italian (Ital), or later ‘invaders) Germanic) are all of Danubian (Germanic) origins. People of Sardinia are the remainders of the earliest europeans. People of Sicily are a blend of pretty much everyone in the ancient world, because Sicily was an extremely important port for transporting goods around the mediterranean using the sailing technology available in the ancient world. **General Rule of Thumb: ** If you work at it a bit you can pretty easily identify almost anyone’s tribal origins. Black hair and ‘swarthy” complexion and body hair = South route around the black sea = Anatolian/Eastern-Mediterranean/ Indo-Iranian. Or as I am often corrected “West Eurasians” (or middle easterners) Brown, Red, Blonde hair, very white complexion = Northern route around the Black Sea. Northern route people still exist in at least three if not four variations: atlantics, germanics (central europe), nordics, and northern and eastern slavs. The history of southern slavs is extremely complicated and I end up offending someone if I talk about it. But by and large they vary from very old peoples who started metalsmithing in what is today Bulgaria, to the remains of the steppe people who migrated there during the last major migration periods. The problem is that the spanish are largely from Atlantic and Celts and often have dark hair but are from the same lineage (R1b) – just less inbred with later versions of europeans. Something ‘very different’ happened around the black sea either before or after the deluge. we don’t know what but it caused repeated waves of expansion with the latest being the Yamna (horse) people what gave europe her ancient culture = although pre-yamna, yamna, germanic, christian, and modern values still exist if you understand which originated which set of ideas. But europeans, in general, regardless of earlier (southern), or later (multiple waves of northern), origins, evolve from what we (incorrectly) call ‘Caucuses’, but is apparently poland-ukraine-southern russia, with the caucuses the line of demarcation between the european, indo-iranian, and (now extinct) people that invaded india. The word Aryan is correct (Yamna expansion), but impolitic in the current century, and “White” is a poor substitute for Ethnic Europeans. We are, after all, all from the exceptional grazing and farmland between the north sea in poland, the black sea in ukraine, and the north of the caspian in southern russia. Europeans originated along the north sea, baltic sea, black sea, and caspian sea, and their russo finnic ancestors the arctic sea. It’s just that trade in the mediterranean was much more profitable for anyone – until the atlantic and now pacific came along. Some of us find it ironic that Poland is probably origin of the european diaspora. 😉 Italy empirically (by all measures) consists of two very different countries – north and south. Just like Belgium has french and germanic under the same state. Just as americans have nine different cultures under the same state. The reason different countries do not separate is that it is economically disadvantagous to one party or both parties. For example, catalonia (wealthy and culturally and genetically different) vs spain (poor), and north italy vs south italy, and west ukraine vs east ukraine. and the northern states vs the southern states vs the plains states, vs the coastal west (ecotopia). Or canada vs quebec. All of these countries would be better off alone, but the industrial revolution and fiat credit made it difficult for small counteries to engage in defense.
