The same reason we all do such things: Virtue Signaling. (see “Signal Spirals”) https://www.quora.com/Why-have-so-many-white-Superstars-adopted-black-children

Hmm. I would have to look at the literature in depth, but as a general survey, we would probably say that we feel morally superior (which is demonstrably true vs the Chinese), but that we feel equal to the Japanese and South Koreans. And in many ways we see Japanese and Koreans as socially superior.…

I’ll give you the correct answer. Intelligence: Capability(Potential) vs Smart: Demonstrated(Existential). But why can Potential and Existential differ? 1 – Measured Intelligence, or Intellectual Capability is equivalent to a personality trait. There is such a high correlation between openness to experience and intelligence that this idea will go mainstream in the next decade if it…

—“Do we want to live in a society, and world, where everyone is carrying firearms?”— Like anything else, the pareto minimum is 20%. Once you reach 20%, for all intents and purposes, everyone must assume everyone is carrying.

—“You base your premise on assuming the adversarial entities whom seek to destroy our culture, history, race and the foundational histories of mankind possess a consciousness.”— A Friend No. I make the assertion that all groups pursue their group evolutionary strategy, and that they do so within the spectrum of strategies available, largely (although…

by Stella Morabito Why doesn’t anyone investigate the toxic effects of today’s bureaucrat-run mega-schools in the wake of a school shooting? It’s high time we place a share of the blame there. Apologists for these noxious systems continue to shift blame for their failures using the media, various left-wing lobbies, and the kids…

It doesn’t work like that. You don’t contact intelligence agencies per se. That’s the most certain means of being ignored. (Darpa is an exception.) You write technical papers. You submit articles to think tanks. You show up at intelligence related conferences and military trade shows. You hire a small PR firm to spread the information…

—“So. The other day I was running & it clicked for me: It really is all about stopping lies. If we tolerate lies, and liars, eventually we will be ruled by the best liars telling the biggest lies. (And the best liars are ((())), 0-+, and <-0-+ . And the French –…

(I use very similar reasoning albeit from economics and demographics. but this post is very accessible and includes explanatory graphics.)

WHEN SOMEONE USES THE TERM “REDUCTIONISM” THEY”RE ADMITTING THEY HAVE NO ARGUMENT. —“The notion that “ancient western man lifted mankind out of ignorance” is a biased and parochial view of philosophical history. There was and is a global network. “— You have an unscientific (and non-operational) undrestanding of history. Why is it…

—“It sounds to me like reduction-ism.”— (a friend) Well that’s not a criticism, since the entire universe operates on a (scarily) small set extremely simple rules (forces) that produce all of existence. All human behavior, likewise, is quite simple. It’s the vast set of justifications and deceits that we use to preserve our negotiating…

We would rapidly starve. Research “monetary velocity”. Wealth is created (meaning prices are continuously reduced) by the velocity of trade.So failing to understand this is an example of the fixed pie fallacy. If we were all made equal tomorrow, we would starve in ninety days. https://www.quora.com/What-would-an-economy-be-like-if-everyone-saved-80-of-their-income

The average and mean of the distribution is higher. Whites have been practicing eugenics since at least 700ad. And warmer climates do not put pressure on the underclasses that winters do. https://www.quora.com/Why-are-the-IQs-of-white-people-higher-than-those-of-Africans

Gods as we know them were invented in reaction to (competition with) the new technology of aristocracy. The priests have always been liars. But the metalsmiths, and warriors cannot afford the luxury of faith – faith demands no skin in the game (no warranty), but truth, metalsmithing, and war, force a man to warranty his…

–“Two types of men kill Caesar. the one who thinks he is equal, if not better, and those who know they are inferior. The men who killed Caesar were the latter. This applies to the Germans and those who hate them as well.”–Neil A. Bucklew

—“Men at some time are masters of their fates: The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlings.”—- THE CULT OF NON-SUBMISSION

It’s all exposing the process by which a particular snapshot understanding is achieved along with the trade offs made

(So I know your virtue signalling is self defensive, but that doesn’t make it any less obviously a lack of agency, and a failure to mature into adulthood. The purpose of the postmodern revolution was to relieve the infantilized mind of the pressures of competition in modernity when freed of the excuse that…

You don’t know that your genes are speaking out of self defensive panic. I know mine are speaking. But then, scientific (operational) truth is in in my genetic interest. Technically speaking we cannot measure IQ reliably above 140. What we can do however, is group people in a distribution above 140 – and…

Retweeted Kevin MacDonald (@TOOEdit): Liberals are caught in a “moral matrix” that makes them think that conservatives have no morals at all, so they assume conservatives would disagree with any question with moral implications. The quote from Feingold is priceless. https://t.co/Nr9xGlDbvx
