I thought it would be fun to try to write a post while drunk out of mind. My colleagues and I believe in working hard and playing hard, so after an incredibly productive week at work, it was time to get trashed, and so the designated driver parked his car at parliament hill and a bunch of us went bar hopping. I just wanted to get started, but one of my colleagues kept insisting that each bar we entered was too low class, and we needed to find somewhere better, even though the patrons in all the bars in that area were dominated by impeccably well dressed white collar professionals such as government policy analysts, lawyers, and high tech types, all of whom lived in the most educated city in the most educated country of the World’s most powerful continent. My social IQ is not high enough to distinguish between very high class and super high class, so I relied on my colleague’s judgement.
Once we found somewhere he approved of, I ordered two long island ice teas which came to $13.95. I gave the bartender $20 and asked for $2 change. He thanked me so profusely that I feared I tipped too much, so the next time, I ordered two long island ice teas, I asked for $3 change. This time he thanked me not at all. So the third time I ordered two long island ice teas, I was back to asking for only $2 change.
I then started working the jukebox and an extremely attractive young woman started looking at me nervously, like she feared I was going to put on hip hop or something. Instead I put on 1973 by James Blunt.
Followed by Last Friday Night, by Katy Perry:
Followed by Telling Stories by the fabulous Tracy Chapman:
Followed by a song that extremely few people are smart enough to understand: ummm ummm ummm
Followed by Hotel California
When I put on Hotel California several well heeled couples got up to slow dance. My fiance wasn’t there so I had no one to dance with. It irritated me that these couples were enjoying the song I paid for more than I was.
Lastly, I put on the theme song of my life. The elegant My Way by Frank Sinatra:
So you’re from Ottawa ? I went there, it’s a nice city.
What make you thing he is from Ottawa bro ?
Parliament Hill is the main landmark in Ottawa, and he onece told me he lived near Quebec and the city of Gatineau is just on the other side of the river. Something tells me you’re a black frenchman, am I right ?
Yes, and something = my pseudonym
Yes, and this pseudonym also makes me think you’re a teen.
I went there, it’s a nice city
I’m glad you enjoyed it.
My fiance wasn’t there so I had no one to dance with.
Is she hot ?
And why are you racist ?
Is she hot ?
Hot is not the word I would use because it has a very animalistic connotation. But by the standards of the United States and most of the World she’d be considered stunningly beautiful, but Ottawa has so many incredibly well bred people that around here, she just comes across as average. Keep in mind that this is the most educated and powerful city in the most educated country in the World’s most powerful continent, so people here tend to be of extremely good genetic stock, particularly in the streets around Parliament hill and the wealthier suburbs. You get the best people from all over the World coming here and mixing their genes.,
Indeed there are so many incredibly stunning women here and once they hit 30, they are so desperate for high class guy in his 30s that if you can talk and act with sophistication (which is almost impossible if you’re not from here), it’s not hard to find a beautiful wife. Beautiful women are a dime a dozen here, which is why I was for more concerned with finding a woman which character, good morals, integrity, and compassion. But even those traits are quite common here because of the good genetic stock, or the educated culture, or some combination of the two.
And why are you racist ?
I’m not. I think racism is horrific and incredibly stupid. To dislike a person based on race is one of the stupidest, most evil, and most primitive attitudes I can imagine.
Now I’m open minded to HBD, which some people consider racist, but I don’t because it’s just a scientific theory. Many here would argue, it’s pseudoscience, but pseudoscience is not racist unless there is a deliberate malicious attempt to distort the data to advance a political agenda. I reject the term scientific racism. If it’s scientific it’s not racism and if it’s racism it’s not scientific.
Europe (with or without Russia) is more powerful than North America if we only take the economic aspect of might.
Pumpkin Person, you are racist as long as you believe that races exist and that some races are inferior/superior to other races.
“Many here would argue, it’s pseudoscience, but pseudoscience is not racist unless there is a deliberate malicious attempt to distort the data to advance a political agenda”
Man, are you blind to the data manipulation or biased collection that make Pioneer Fund’s research and researchers outcast in the scientific community. And are you aware that the end goal of HBD is the implementation of eugenicist policies and cuts in social spending ?
I’m quite aware that sadly many HBDers are racist and exploit HBD as a tool to advance racism; but there are also many good people who explore HBD simply because they’re scientifically curious about group differences. You don’t have to be a racist to find this topic extremely fascinating.
These good people quit hbd as soon as they realize it is unscientific, the only ones who stay in are those who need to rationalize their prejudices or hatred and will take anything that gives the illusion of science to justify their opinion.
Also, the equation racist = bad people is unfair, there are many racists in every race that are kind, friendly and human towards others regardless of race but they still believe in racial hierarchy. HBDers feel offended when called racist because they don’t want to be thought as horrible persons and want to make believe that their opinions are unbiased and objective.
HBD or race realism are hypocrite labels: scientific racism is the real name of what you do. If you want to avoid self labeling as a racist, use terms like raciology, race science, racial science or whatever that tells the truth about your obsession with pretended racial differences in human worth.
What explains a black person obsessed with (and of supportive) of HBD?
*and supportive of
And I forgot to react to this:
“You don’t have to be a racist to find this topic extremely fascinating.”
To find HBD (human biodiversity) fascinating, you first have to believe that races exist as valid biologic concepts, that the pretended differences in behavior and abilities between races do exist as true realities and that no valid or strong explanation for them exists outside of biology. This makes you a racist by definition. If you don’t believe in any of the previously mentioned theories, HBD is everything but fascinating.
“What explains a black person obsessed with (and of supportive) of HBD?”
The same thing as a white person: observation of differences, disbelief in the mainstream and scientifically accepted explanations of their origins due to inability or unwillingness to understand the complexity of the various factors involved and nuances to be made, hence the need of a simplistic alternative that relies on an god-like concept: genes.
Genes are GOD
And Genetic Determinism is the only religion.
In natural selection’s name, AMEN!
Well , don’t you agree that HBD theories are pretty close to that ? This blog’s author admits to having a mystical relationship with HBD so he would not contradict me.
And Genetic Determinism is the only religion.
In natural selection’s name, AMEN!
LOL! Charles Darwin that great religious fundamentalist!
his blog’s author admits to having a mystical relationship with HBD so he would not contradict me
But I’m not a scientist, obviously. And even if I were, scientists routinely have a mystical like awe of the subject they’re researching; it doesn’t mean it’s a religion.
It’s actually you, Afrosapiens, you is being religious by pretending the basic laws of biology can’t apply to humans or to humans brains or human groups. As if humans are some divine creation that it above the rules of science.
And lion, it is not because you’re black that you can’t be prejudiced toward other blacks you distance yourself from. If you’re a successful middle class black person, you can share the prejudices towards blacks that are common in bigots of any race. But some black persons may be prejudiced against you and think you are a sellout, an Uncle Tom and the likes.
Intra-racial prejudices are common too, white hipsters on white rednecks, moderate muslims on extremist muslims, established migrants on recent migrants…
You can’t have an objectivity-insurance thanks to who you are. The “I can’t be anti-black racist because I’m black” only fools ignorants.
“Pretending the basic laws of biology can’t apply to humans or to humans brains or human groups.”
I never made any such claim. The only thing is that this basic laws of biology have not been proven to cause the differences between the groups we call races.
Human exceptionalism is not caused by any divine plan but by the fact that we have brains that allow us to transgress many of the basic laws of biology. This is why dysgenics that HBD deplores so much do not exist in animals because they don’t have brains that enable them to go against natural selection.
I don’t doubt that the most brilliant scientists are fascinated by their field of study and it’s a good thing as science is going deeper and deeper in the understanding of a reality that is revealing all of its complexity after centuries of scientific investigation. But HBDer’s fascination is something of another kind. And works in the opposite way to science.
It starts with a well defined pre-established conclusion: race exists and they naturally differ in human worth.
Then, you need to amass and create evidence for it, ignoring or finding excuses for things that don’t fit the hierarchical order.
The scientific mind however process the other way
He starts by defining race and faces the first difficulty. Yes populations have various genetic profiles and we can create clusters of genetic affinity that approximately fit pre-established racial categories, but that only comes after arbitrarily selecting some markers that are meaningful for the sorting effort
However, if we chose to establish an universal threshold of genetic similarity that allows to separate humanity in genetic subgroups on a common basis, we have to face the reality that non-Africans would account for one single race whereas Subsaharian Africans would be divided in tens or even hundreds of genetic races.
With this first reality, a scientist would start by realizing that race, in itself has no genetic existence: there is no gene of race but he may still be interested in varying gene frequencies and their implications for behavior.
If he starts an investigation on that topic, the serious scientist will only be interested in finding THE genes, and not developing disputable arguments implying there are some indirect proofs that the genes that we can’t find do exist. Because the serious scientist has no attachment to his hypothesis, he’s ready to abandon it as soon as one single counter-evidence disproves it because the goal of his research effort is not to be the one who’s always right, the one who always find the evidence of the truth that the whole world wants to ignore.
Actually, applying “basic laws” of biology leads to the general expectation that the races of man would differ little on complex traits.
Those laws being?
Abbreviated…natural selection removes genetic variance and beneficial mutations increase genetic variance. The more complex a trait is, the lower the beneficial mutation rate is.
So one would expect the races of man to vary on traits like eye color, skin color, etc. One would not expect much variation in “intelligence,” perhaps the most complex trait in the universe and an intensely selected for trait in hominids.
“Actually, applying “basic laws” of biology leads to the general expectation that the races of man would differ little on complex traits.”
Indeed,
And look, don’t you think funny that Pumpkin is saddened by the fact that some use HBD to advance racism when this same ideology finds that is scientifically established that Blacks are:
-stupid
-violent and impulsive
-carefree
-immoral
-parasitic
-selfish
-sociable because their primitive nature makes them unable of inhibition
-psychopathic
Or simply put: worthless/subhuman proliferating species that threatens to flood humanity’s gene pool with inferior mutations.
All of this, HBD claims, is caused by biology and this blog is dedicated to imagining the biological mechanisms that are involved in the aforementioned traits.
And then the author claims not to be racist and says he feels saddened that some people can make a racist use of his unscientific theories.
Pumpkin Person, just tell me: how stupid do you think I am ?
“LOL! Charles Darwin that great religious fundamentalist!”
HBD is Galtonian, not Darwinian and Darwin strongly opposed Galton’s theories.
HBD is Galtonian, not Darwinian and Darwin strongly opposed Galton’s theories.
According to wikipedia (admittedly not the best source), Darwin gave serious consideration to Galton’s ideas, but they were too hard to advance politically:
Darwin himself gave serious consideration to Galton’s work, but considered the ideas of “hereditary improvement” impractical. Aware of weaknesses in his own family, Darwin was sure that families would naturally refuse such selection and wreck the scheme. He thought that even if compulsory registration was the only way to improve the human race, this illiberal idea would be unacceptable, and it would be better to publicize the “principle of inheritance” and let people decide for themselves
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Darwinism
Darwin was an EXTREME HARDCORE racialist by today’s standards, even comparing some races to apes, saying:
At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes . . . will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilised state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla.
Of course liberals have tied themselves in verbal knots trying to cover for him with their revisionist history: “what he really meant was ….”. But intelligent people aren’t fooled.
Indeed,
And look, don’t you think funny that Pumpkin is saddened by the fact that some use HBD to advance racism when this same ideology finds that is scientifically established that Blacks are:
-stupid
HBD only predicts that genetic variants causing stupidity will be more common in blacks, or conversely, genetic variants causing smarts will be less common. But it also predicts an enormous range of genetic IQ in every major race, and that hundreds of thousands of blacks are genetically brilliant. I have showcased several examples on my blog.
-violent and impulsive
There are many violent people in every race. HBD only predicts that genetic variants causing violence will be somewhat more common in blacks, but the vast majority of blacks will be non-violent. Indeed the greatest violence against humanity and nature is done by the high IQ races because these created and control the most destructive technologies. If everyone in the World were black, there would be much less death and destruction and much more harmony with nature.
-carefree
Is that a bad thing?
-immoral
Again, it only predicts that genetic variants causing immorality will be more common among blacks to some degree, but what matters is actual behavior, and non-blacks have committed far more destruction in the World than blacks have because they’ve created and controlled all the harmful technologies.
-parasitic
One could argue that high IQ populations are more parasitic because they exploit the labor and lives of lower IQ populations and take advantage of them. Blacks are often employed in fields where people do real work and make real sacrifices (i.e. the service industry, the military, hospital aids etc). It’s high IQ people who work as biased columnists in newspapers, government officials with bloated salaries, investment bankers, lobbyists who get politicians to use government and military resources for their self-serving purpose etc, who are parasitic on a much larger scale.
So no, HBD does not seem to predict blacks are more parasitic. If anything, just the opposite.
-selfish
See above
-sociable because their primitive nature makes them unable of inhibition
HBD predicts blacks are more sociable because they evolved to be good at attracting mates. This is generally considered a good thing
-psychopathic
See above
Or simply put: worthless/subhuman proliferating species that threatens to flood humanity’s gene pool with inferior mutations.
LOL! HBD predicts blacks are genetically superior athletically, sexually, socially, musically, and they age a heck of a lot better than non-blacks. Their only major flaws, according to HBD is lower intelligence (on average) and more violence, but these two flaws cancel each other out because if one’s violence is not guided by intelligence, it doesn’t do the kind of large scale damage high IQ violence does.
Pumpkin Person, just tell me: how stupid do you think I am ?
I don’t think you’re stupid at all. I’m quite aware that you’re smart.
HBD is not making humble predictions that it’s ready to change when it faces the proof of their absuridity. It establishes all of these traits as irrefutable scientific facts.
You can’t say “I’m not a racist, I’m a race realist and it’s not my fault if the reality of genetics or biology is racist or puts some races at disadvantage for certain valuable things”. The reality of race realism is an hoax and the only ones who are interested in giving it the appearance of truth are racists.
“Pumpkin Person, just tell me: how stupid do you think I am ?
I don’t think you’re stupid at all. I’m quite aware that you’re smart.”
What I meant was: who do you think you are fooling ?
Man, I’m a lawyer, mastering and dealing with hypocrisy is what I’m trained for. You won’t get away with any “I’m not a racist, I have black friends”, “I’m not a racist, I am a race realist” or any hypocrite posture of this kind.
I would like to add that there’s problems with HBD as currently practiced, but it’s the best thing we got for those of us truly interested in human nature.
Too many HBDers revel in the superiority of one race vs. another (although, as Pumpkin points out, IQ differences aren’t everything). Many HBDers are straight up, hateful racists. But I like talking with Internet racists because it gives me insight into their thoughts and helps learn more about unconventional beliefs.
I would argue that if blacks were given more IQ/g enhancing genes, then we would easily be the dominant race. We already have more sexuality enhancing genes, and charisma. And we know that black intellectual inferiority isn’t linked to their physical phenotype (skin color, facial features, hair, etc.) by way of pleiotropy. And Jayman showed that black men are the most attractive when controlling for intelligence (https://jaymans.wordpress.com/2012/07/23/evidence-for-cochrans-harpendings-theory-of-genetic-load-the-link-between-iq-and-attractiveness/)
So one could make a genetic argument that if only the smartest black men pro-created repeatedly with the most beautiful women, we could create the most dominant and powerful race of people in history! This is why need to talk about eugenics for blacks, not ignore it.
HBD is not making humble predictions that it’s ready to change when it faces the proof of their absuridity
Yes it is.
The reality of race realism is an hoax and the only ones who are interested in giving it the appearance of truth are racists.
Nonsense
Man, I’m a lawyer, mastering and dealing with hypocrisy is what I’m trained for.
Lawyers are professional liars. Masters of distorting the truth to advance their argument, but they generally know nothing about science, statistics, objectivity, and advancing knowledge. Not that I have any science training either, but at least I can admit my limitations.
Aww, I realized there’s nothing but social science majors and humanities people on this blog.
The average IQ must be very low then…
“So one could make a genetic argument that if only the smartest black men pro-created repeatedly with the most beautiful women, we could create the most dominant and powerful race of people in history! This is why need to talk about eugenics for blacks, not ignore it”
I don’t believe in that either, you can’t manufacture breeds of Übermenschen. However, there is something real about the reproductive interracial success of black men that needs to be addressed by HBD: how can a genetically retrograde race can spread its retrograde genes in superior races with more ease than superior men themselves ?
Sexual selection is one of the most powerful tool of natural selection, we can see that among mammals, sexual selection happens through between males competition as males are set up to fuck every humanoid female living thing without much distinction and women have very little chances of being sexless.
So, what are HBD thoughts on the fact that blacks have better inter-racial reproductive success than the much superior orientals ? I’ve seen your statistics on online dating sites but let me assume it depicts unrepresentative non-elite samples, or in other words: the losers that have no game in the real word.
Aww, I realized there’s nothing but social science majors and humanities people on this blog. The average IQ must be very low then…
Steve Hsu’s blog probably has the highest average IQ in the HBD-o-sphere. Lots of hardcore science types. Steve Sailer’s commenters might be number two. They’re not especially scientific, but they’re politically much more sophisticated than we usually see on HBD blogs.

I’ve seen your statistics on online dating sites but let me assume it depicts unrepresentative non-elite samples, or in other words: the losers that have no game in the real word.
OKCupid dating data wasn’t particularly favorable towards blacks or Asian males, but I would guess in a society with no stigma wrt interracial dating, intelligent black men would easily dominate all other groups (controlling for race and IQ) (black women and Asian men would still be losers). Take black men with IQ > 115, and they should produce the most superior spawn in the history of mankind. They would relentlessly inseminate all the beautiful women with their magnificent organs, profusely spouting their baby batter in their wombs, and create the first true master race.
I’m thinking of a Battle Royale type situation where you put men of every race in the same arena and have them battle out for sex with women. 50 men per race, with only those men with superior intelligence levels. There would be organized trials where races of different men would compete for both the voluntary and involuntary submission of women to their craven sexual desires. And the black men would win everytime.
Hahaha, I meant *ravenous sexual desires* in that last post.
“Aww, I realized there’s nothing but social science majors and humanities people on this blog.
The average IQ must be very low then…”
Man, psychology is itself a social science, the natural (hard) science of intelligence is neuroscience.
HBD is the theory of psychologists who go well over their field of academic authority when they discuss evolution, biology, economy, history or sociology.
I’m a business law attorney, I graduated one year earlier than normal (skipped a primary school grade), my IQ has been measured for this reason and it’s pretty high, I will only have the humility of not showing it off here.
You can’t say law requires less mental ability than physics or mathematics. We need a very high verbal IQ to make the best defense, show the best face of the reality (we never lie but we make heavy use of willful omission) and distort laws at our advantage. We need to read people, understand the untold predict their reactions. And no case is the same as the previous. And contrary to natural sciences, the years of study we have to go through are not fascinating at all, it is boring and you find very few law professionals that have a passionate relationship with law itself.
Law professionals are maybe the most cognitively sophisticated of all, we don’t have geek’s intelligence but leader’s intelligence. And no wonder why many of the most influential people in this world have an academic background in law.
Though I don’t believe in HBD, I strongly believe in social reproduction. See, almost everyone in my family is in the field of law: my father is a human rights attorney, my mother is a prosecutor, my sister is a tax expert (which is France requires law background), I’m a business law attorney, a similar path. That would sound to corroborate HBD except that my parents and their respective families are white but my sisters and I are full blooded blacks from Haiti and we didn’t have it any harder to get where we are now.
And social reproduction is a well acknowledged phenomenon that has nothing to do with genetics but familial culture instead. My parents put me under pressure to perpetuate this family tradition in law, I put myself an even stronger pressure. I’m not saying that my parents would have been disappointed if I became a cardiologist or business executive but that would have been different. However, if I told my father “dad, I want to be a psychologist” he would have responded me “you’d rather chose a real profession”…
From what I see in Europe, black women have good success too, not as much as black men but African women are much more feminine than the stereotypical African-American sista. And they do extremely well in attracting men of other races when we realize how different they are from the dominant western standards of beauty.
There are clear signs that blacks are disappearing in Europe and that large segments of the white population are becoming not that white. The reason for that is that blacks are not segregated in Europe and have never been commonly thought as disgusting subhumans beings as in the United States. Here in the affluent suburb where I live, there are a few blacks, no Arabs, no Asians (because immigration from Asia is low in France) and the dominant population is white. But you would not believe how numerous and visible are inter-racial or mixed race families, they are even more numerous than in middle or lower class areas.
Lawyers are
False.
The only people on average smarter than lawyers are Doctorates in Nat Sci, and when I say Nat Sci, I mainly mean chemistry and physics.
There really is no better profession for someone who believes they are ‘smart’ to put their imagined chops to the test.
If you’re so smart, go try and hold a multi-billion dollar company responsible for its many and varied legal violations.
If you’re so smart, come up with a way to extract money from criminals — not petty criminals, or criminals that commit crimes punishable by criminal law, the criminals (read: who are shielded by the law) who extract value from the people who create it, the public, etc — while elite opposition tries to block you at every turn.
If you’re so smart, find an expert that can get you up to speed on whatever scientific and technical matter that the entire issue turns on. Learn it and learn it well enough to become fluent.
If you’re so smart, come up with a business model that allows you to finance all of this.
Three types of lawyers. The first type are the people who should have never gone to law school and who are screwed unless they land a BIGLAW job that allows them to become some corporation’s bitch when they fail to make partner.
The second type loves the messy business of civilized war. Unfortunately, they love preserving power.
The third type love civilized war but believe their pathologies (and talents) should go toward helping those who have no clue (many STEM inventor types, many many more ‘normal smart value creators,’)
lawyers are for the most part DISGUSTING, but i agree with swank to an extent.
in the everyday sense of “intelligent”, that is, in the sense that one uses it when describing his impression of someone he’s met, elite law grads are the smartest.
BUT NONE OF THOSE IS A TRIAL LAWYER!
TRIAL LAWYER = MENTALLY AND MORALLY RETARDED SATANIST WHO SHOULD BE SHOT.
but both natsci phds and elite law grads are examples of spearman’s law in almost every instance.
swank is a very disappointing moron who thinks there’s plenty of opportunity for jds; if a jd can’t make bank it’s wholly his own fault.
swank had shown himself un-moronic up to now.
quel dommage.
TRIAL LAWYER = MENTALLY AND MORALLY RETARDED SATANIST WHO SHOULD BE SHOT.
That’s true to an extent. A trial lawyer is selected to solidify facts. And because facts are so solidified by lay juries, the person to persuade them unfortunately fits that exact description. However, when fighting a powerful entity, the fight’s only just begun after the trial is over. The trial lawyer is no longer of much use during the appeal. You need to get the factual truth solidified, then the shootout over “the law” begins.
NONE OF THOSE IS A TRIAL LAWYER!
Most aren’t because most go to work for BIGLAW, ignore their conscience, and are hired hands that push people around with resources and never go to trial. And walking away from all that takes courage, because guys like this…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_R._Donziger ….end up fighting Chevron, winning, and Chevron will not stop coming back at him (and this case is an exact example of how asymmetrical the balance of power is). Whatever low opinion you have of people like Donziger, I can assure you that Chevron and their legal team are 1 million times worse than any trial plaintiff’s lawyer.
There’s also this guy…https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Schlichtmann…who went bankrupt trying to hold large companies to account.
if a jd can’t make bank it’s wholly his own fault.
I don’t believe that at all. Legal education is a sham. Law school doesn’t teach anyone how to be a lawyer. Most of the people who go to law school shouldn’t go. And they shouldn’t go because they don’t love what it takes to be a good lawyer, and half of the reason they go is because they have no clue what it takes to be a good lawyer. And the academy obfuscates the entire profession. It’s a mess.
But for those who love what it takes…there is a ton of opportunity.
Good article recently in Bloomberg Businessweek about lawyers.
It was titled, “Are Lawyers Getting Dumber?” The article argues that’s true.
Glad I didn’t go to law school.
More g-loaded abilities have shown greater recent evolution in primates, suggesting that they are more responsive to selection. It has been suggested to me that additive variance is not exhausted by selection, because new SNPs replenish the variance.
Fascinating. And it’s these g-loaded abilities that the divergent limbs of the evolutionary tree differ in the most.
Yes, they show recent evolution on the heels of what appear to be large-effect mutations that do not emerge often: evolutionary time scales. Your last sentence is just long-hand for ‘mutation increases genetic variance,’ a proposition I already dealt with above. So slow rate of beneficial mutation + intense selection = low genetic variance.
The fact that humans are a young and genetically homogeneous species and that the races of man cannot be represented or modeled cladistically further supports the above conclusion.
Deleterious mutations increase genetic variance too. However, your point is well taken concerning race differences, which are probably only in small part due to deleterious mutations.
What do you think the proportion of g attributable to additive variance in the West is?
You should have played this instead of your boring songs.
Argh, I hate trap rap (particularly theirs). And please don’t ghettofy this blog.
I meant no offense, I just want to keep this blog intellectual.
And these black men look very intimidating and sexually aggressive.

Pumpkin, for Americans who are known to be very aggressive and go getters, Canada seems to be a very tame place for them. Too tame!
Even Montreal is too smooth for a New Yorker. I miss the sociopaths back home, who always put you on your feet. I’m beginning to feel like a black person who grew in a rough neighborhood, and is labeled as self hating and a loser, because he wants to live a smoother and quieter life with White people.
New York city is extremely low class, with it’s pushy aggressive fast talking attitude. Even the good parts like Manhattan are unbelievably low class, particularly because everyone there is trying so hard to be high class. Trying to be high class is low class. I see elites from Manhattan all the time waltzing into Ottawa, and they’re so surprised when they’re not making the type of business contacts they hoped to get. They’re oblivious to how obvious their status striving looks to the truly sophisticated, and they’re oblivious to how low class their accents are.
Ha! So Jorge Videla and you, are finally in agreement on one thing. He thinks American elites are low class, and the Manhattan elites are the worst. Some people attribute this low class behavior on Jewish Hollywood influence. One can make a case that the Jewish elites right before the Nazis, were similar to the obnoxious behaviors of Americans. We can also make a case for Israelis, who are also known for their very low class manners.
6 long island iced teas???
Yes
”He thinks American elites are low class, and the Manhattan elites are the worst. Some people attribute this low class behavior on Jewish Hollywood influence. ”
yup, because they are like high functioning roma gypsies
http://www.informationng.com/2013/08/photos-romanias-gypsy-king-buried-in-air-conditioned-coffin.html
Also Santo, many American White people are so lazy, and they don’t want to do dirty work anymore. In essence, they are like the Jews who only count money, when it comes to getting their hands dirty. Many important work in America is mostly done by non-Whites. Whites are lazy, and only do fake work, like sitting in the office.
And this is a recipe of civilizational decline and maybe collapse. It has been predicted, that when a majority only care about luxury, they import outsiders who take over them, because they are too lazy to take care of themselves. In America, this has been accelerated very fast, with capitalism.
Taaka Vodka is the best for cheap drunkenness. I got wasted every night for a week for only $8 with this stuff!

Of course not. I’m the best thing to ever happen to her. 🙂

why are you the best thing to even happen to her ?
Pumpkin, to be fair, it’s appears that now blacks are becoming high functioning servants for whites in many expensive cities in America. And when I mean high functioning, they are performing tasks that require more brain power, like using a computer to process orders, deliveries, and understanding the specs of a product, all at the request of White customers.
So black people are doing work for White people, who otherwise, feel too entitled, to engage in them.
@ Afrosapiens:
I have almost never read that a HBD Blogger called different races simply “superior” or “inferior”. No HBD bloggers mostly have a world view which is deeply influenced by Darwin. There is no reason to call a lion in general superior to a shark or to a fly. Those species are simply adapted to different ecological ecological niches. In the same way the differences between different human populations do not make or another population superior or inferior. Also many HBD guys to not value different traits. Yes, Subsaharan Africans are on average far more aggressive and violent than Chinese, but that doesn´t make them bad. It is just the way it is. The fact that males of westafrican ancestry seem to be the most attractive is connected to their aggression. Most women ceteris paribus prefer violent men over less violent men.
The word “racism” has no real meaning. It is mainly used to describe behavioral patterns which non-subsaharan Africans use to compete with subsaharan Africans, especially cooperation. In current western societies subsaharan Africans easily dominate all other groups, which basically means that they rather beat up than getting beaten up, rather shoot somebody than get shot and that their males are successful at the partner market. The reason is that they can and are allowed to play out their strengths (like physical power, high aggression etc.) but non-subsaharan Africans are not allowed to play out their strengths (like strong cooperation). The word “racism” is used to identify and sanction anything non-subsaharan Africans could try to fight for their own interest in the way they can.
@Lion of the blogosphere:
The way I see it this Battle Royale type situation is actually happening in real life in western countries. I think for centures the institutional setting in european countries (and much more in east asian countries) worked in the way of males building up tools, wealth, civilization to attract women. This way traits like IQ were positive selected for. But other traits were used less, such as traits that makes males attractive to women in a physical sense. Having something but not using is evolutionary expensive and thus males in these regions (east asians much more) lost these traits, like fish in deep sea loose their ability to see.
Now the institutional setting in western countries has changed to the battle royale type situation. Because society will take care of children and women do work themselfes they do not still face a trade off when choosing a mate: concentrating on IQ and civilizational qualities or concentrate on physical attractiveness (of course having both at the same time would be perfect but thats rare). They can simply concentrate on choosing the physical most attractive guy. In this institutional setting black men win.
It is of course ironic that the achievements of european and asian males which make up modern civilization in the ende have led to a situation where they themselfes are disadvantaged. Without vaccination in Africa (which among other things lead to the current demographic explosion in subsaharan Africa), without planes which fly subsaharan Africans to Europe and Asia, without Pseudo jobs like in marketing for women, which are typical of advances economies subsaharan African males would of course have no chance to be as successful on the european partner market as they are. The only way for non-subsaharan African males to compete with subsaharan African males would be “racist” (e.g. no social security for women who have children with african males). As most whites today hate nothing more than racism this is not going to happen. Thus we can expect that especially current Europeans will be replaced by a mixed-race population with black grounding fathers and white founding mothers.
A lot of Whites today are also lazy, especially among wealthier Whites. They outsource real work to those sub-saharan blacks and other non-Whites. In many ways, you can say blacks will have practical skills, and Whites don’t. Whites just wanna have fun all the time. Maybe I’m biased, because I live in an urban setting. Whites live out hedonistic lifestyle more than blacks, and it’s their undoing. blacks might fool around, but Whites fine dine, wine, and live life of luxury.
In my home country Germany I do not have the impression that subsaharan Africans do any important work. Real work is done by other immigrant groups like Turks, or Germany themselves, but not by subsaharan Africans. Subsaharan Africans are extremely overrepresented in professional sports, they are overrepresented in the media. Many do not work at all because their german wives earn the money. Those I could make acquaintance of were often very hedonistic. Again: there is nothing wrong with that, why should subsaharan African males works when they don´t have to?
Yes, Sieven, you’re in Europe, it’s somewhat of a different story. It’s now very socialist in the Old World, and in some European countries, it’s too lenient, with their socialism and liberal outlook. In some countries, such as yours, black men are viewed as gods for women, regardless of their social standing.
In America, blacks engage in low skilled work, besides the usual professional sports and media.
So you are into White nationalism? Lion of the Blogosphere’s blog roll has some of that, for you to address what you’ve just mentioned. Check them out!
Your problem is a real, but it affects poorer Whites, and not wealthier Whites. They have no problem attracting mates, because of their status.
I am certainly not into white nationalism, actually I do not understand the whole hype about “whiteness”
Then what is your complaint about blacks, or the your fellow Germans? Your issues and mines are common problems among the wealthier Western Nations.
Did your fiancée read your blog and enjoy it ?
No. She knows I have a blog but she doesn’t know what it’s called. She wouldn’t get it.
Is she dumb enough that you can easily dominate her?
LOL wut?
I always felt that the optimal IQ for a female partner would be in the 105-115 range, given my own intelligence level/achievements. You don’t want a girl that’s too smart, or the relationship won’t last long.
If she happen to visit your blog, would she recognize you as the author by reading you ?
And so no one in your family or close friend know your blog or at least your ideas concerning the human races ?

You are leaving a double live, like Dexter, and you want to keep people that you love safe from your terrible secret.
But one day someone will find out the truth…

If she read the posts where I talk about myself, she might be able to connect the dots, but most posts here are not about me.
And so no one in your family or close friend know your blog or at least your ideas concerning the human races ?
Some of them know a tiny bit, but they find HBD so offensive that I have learned to keep it to myself.
And what do you answer if she ask you to sgow her your blog ?
I say, the only way this relationship is going to work is if I’m allowed my private space. I don’t read your private diary; you don’t read my blog.
Pumpkin, blacks may not be parasitic in a way like Jews, but they are parasitic in societies, where the general populace is usually smarter. This makes them less capable, relatively comparing, where they need some kind of assistance or help, to maintain a level of equity with others.
I don’t know if Jews are parasitic. They might be value creators which is the opposite of parasitic. Because Lion of the Blogosphere hates people who work in value transference fields, but he has nothing but praise for Jews, so it sounds like Jews are value creators.
Jews are over-represented in value transference fields, which are in essence, parasitic. In our current western societies, Jews have become the middleman between non-Whites and Whites, where they transfer value from both groups. Value in terms of labor, from blacks and other non-Whites, and value in terms of money from Whites. This is essentially, what value transference people do, they serve as a mediator between 2 parties, and enrich themselves in the process.

It’s all relative, as with many things, whether black women are desired or not. In Africa, some black men are upset that black women are dating and marrying Chinese nationals, who are wealthier and come to Africa to set up businesses. In America, people will not care, not even black men, because White women are the only prizes to most non-White men.
