I find it interesting that Britain voted to leave the European Union even though it caused their pound to hit its lowest value in 50 years.
This shows that at least for non-college educated Northwestern Europeans, ethnic genetic interests trump financial interests.
But because high IQ people tend to be liberal, high IQ Northwestern Europeans often support mass immigration.
But unfortunately, extremely high IQ whites like J.P. Rushton allegedly questioned whether immigration was really motivated by liberal goals, or whether that’s just propaganda.

Wow, human life is going to exist because of my blog! This is an example of me advancing my genetic interests. The fact that Mikey is influenced by my blog, shows his personality is similar to mine. Since personality is incredibly polygenetic, he must be genetically similar to me (regardless of his racial background). Thus, the fact that he is having kids, shows the human gene pool is a tiny bit more genetically similar to me than it would have been had I not started this blog. I have cleverly increased my genetic fitness, without the financial and stress burden of becoming a father myself, although I now have enough money to raise 10 kids.
Genetic interests can operate on multiple levels, not ethnic only. Indeed interracial couples and interracial friends tend to be even more similar, to negate the fact that they are racially different.
If I were to survey my readers, I would find that although we are all very different races, on average they are similar to me, and further, they would be most similar on the most heritable traits.
So be fruitful and multiply my little pumpkin heads!
They were only working against their financial interests because the Jews crashed the markets as revenge!!!!!!!!!

I suspect brexit will be good for both the UK and the world’s economy in the long run.
Everyone needs to return to their ancestral homeland, and that includes white Americans. We need to go back to Europe and give the country back to the Native Americans.
Why?
Why* 2
No there ”ancestral lands”, territories no have natural owners, we are not trees of plants, 😉
@marsha
Right of Conquest, etc.
For me my genetic interests ARE my personal interest.
For example I have an instinctual feeling to have sex with my girl as much as possible. Its up to 3-4 times a day now. (I have Hi Testosterone levels)
And even tho I don’t have any instinctual interest To go and donate sperm. When I read Pumpkins reasoning that it has a higher pay off geneticaly than conventional sex. I damn sure looked into it!
And Now sperm donation is a life goal I’m currently goingg to strive for. Hopefully I can get that bachelors in these next 10 years 😎
As of right now I Believe sperm donation WILL BE the developed worlds new mating system. It may take hundreds of thousands or millions of years, but it WILL be the main system. Its the genetic equivalent of being a king in an ancient kingdom!
But that’s in the future. Right now I’m praying my girlfriend doesn’t misscarry. She had a misscarry before a couple years ago in a different relationship. So that puts her probability of having another at 25%
(She was 18 so she most likely was smoking and or drinking while preggo) so it probably was a fluke. Either way I have statistics on my side regardless.
There are some factors that a lot of Americans wont qualify for with sperm donation.

Jews are panicking over Brexit.
Meh. Half of them are. For instance, Soros bet ON Brexit.
He is set to make a killing.

Bullshit.
Jews are shitting bricks over Brexit. They are concerned that whites are starting to awaken politically to their ethnic genetic interests. They are concerned that this limits their control over the European Union and that it might even collapse.
http://www.timesofisrael.com/are-we-on-the-edge-of-an-abyss-or-should-we-celebrate-british-jews-react-to-brexit-vote/
Just because Soros made money off it doesn’t mean he supports it. It just means he’s a good businessman.
From that article: Amid worries over rising nationalism and increased isolation from European Jewish communities, Jewish leaders call for an ‘inclusive’ UK.
Jews like to piss people off, and then call it quits, “you need to calm down, I was only joking”. The ultimate psychopaths who never learn their lesson.
Maybe I’ll make a little extra coin as a rapper:
Jews are shitting bricks over brexit,
They don’t want them to exit.
But if you call them out they call you anti-Semexit

Why does Continental Europe need the Anglo-Proles? They are everything rotten about Western Civilization.
And worse, Anglo-Proles carry Jews on their backs!!!
The Anglo-sphere has contributed to Western civilization, but they’re too gullible. They get led around by the nose by Jews.
Spaniards are more street smart and culturally sophisticated.
Unfortunately, many Anglos are too ignorant to know the difference between a Mexican and a Spaniard.
JS has a deep resentment towards Anglo-Saxons, which is okay.
I personally believe that pretty much all “White trash” in the U.S. is either Anglo or South Italian, but not all Anglos or South Italian are “White trash” (get it?)
do you agree, JS?
I also agree that our isolation from continental Europe made us less selected for government/ good function, as you once said (I can’t find that comment, but it struck me).
And adding Ashkenazi Jews to the mix. Europe got rid most of them for good, and they came to America.
I don’t agree. You’ve obviously never lived around Southern Italians.
most are not bad….as with Anglos.
I’ve known more Northern Italians… it’s just a lifestyle thing. The organized crime predominately stemmed from Southern Italians- I have family that lived in New York for a long time, the South Italians were the second worst Whites when it came to that- following the Ashkenazis.
Southern Italians in Italy aren’t the worse of the worse. The ones who came to America were the lowest of dregs. Essentially, most American Whites are descendants of trash from the Old World. There aren’t many Spaniards in America, which is not a coincidence. Spain got rid of her undesirables with wars and conquests throughout the centuries.
I have no prejudice against Southern Italians- it’s just that the proliness of the North East USA had to come from somewhere- it was Jews to an extent but they have a wide distribution of class (some enjoy quite elegant things, others do not).
Mugabe was right in that the “White trash” are a great threat to Western Civilization;
i.e. the Alt-Right doesn’t seek to further traditional White civilization, but create their own version of it, which of course, can not be done while being led by people with median IQs in the 80s (where your median White is at 100)….
I learned today that 3 of my Paternal Grandmother’s 4 Grandparents were born in Spain(I had previously thought just one).
My paternal grandfather’s mother was born in Spain, so two of his.
The turmoil surrounding the change in Europe/fall of empires (Portugal had monarchy problems in the early 1900s, the Germans a tad bit earlier, etc.) so some Spanish continued to leave because of that, not necessarily because they were “dregs”.
The dregs in Spain were used for “cannon fodder” in the wars against the Moors, during the Hapsburg Empire, the conquest of the New World and the Spanish Armada. Furthermore, Spain inherited an efficient agricultural system from the Muslims, and thus were able to have its men engage in trades and mercantilism, more so than let’s say the Anglos, who had a larger peasant class.
“The dregs in Spain were used for “cannon fodder” in the wars against the Moors, during the Hapsburg Empire, the conquest of the New World and the Spanish Armada.”
Yes. The Spanish did have to originally settle the new world, a great effort, requiring lots of poor people, the English and French sort of piggy-backed off of it (why you saw more proles consistently coming over until, well, 1965). It took a more substantial effort on the part of the Spanish, and they got rid of, it seems a higher proportion of their proles than the English (also the people who fought off the moors)- they were also quite eager to carve their own destiny, most of Spain having been recently freed (1475?, with Cuba being settled in 1492?)….
As for agriculture- the Middle Easterners, in general were never to into it, they used it in Mesopotamia to get started but didn’t do much of it otherwise, there were of course cities but they were ironically fed by nomadic peoples bringing stuff into market (I always think Arab smarts are underestimated- that’s tough to do), so we could assume the Umayyads brought that to Al-Andalus. Much of Andalusia seems to be almost like scrubland, and while Galicia and Asturias (NW) and Basque country (NE0 seem to be temperate, the central and North central regions of Spain seem to be some hardcore desert.
pp should do a post on selection in dry climates (as opposed to cold)- surely it’s not easy to survive like you say it is in Sub-Saharan Africa?
the reasons I don’t read AmRen anymore is that;
1. They are very Pro-Anglo
2. Likewise, about half the readers and a few of the writers don’t seem to understand that Spanish is a European language and the people are European (I saw recent comments about the ‘Shitiness of Madrid’ :/).
3. It’s also a “Blacks are always wrong Whites are always right” type deal (tried to blame the Black mayor of Flint for trusting the State testing to put her city on the lake water- how dare she TRUST THE EXPERTS)….
ultimately failing to realize that Spain is a White country and hence the language is White in origin, is very scarily ignorant.
Did they learn of the early history OF THEIR COUNTRY (the King and Queen of Spain sending people over here)- do they realize that these people settled here, bred with the NATIVES (or do they think that the land was uninhabited and the non-White people from Spain just occupied it?)
there’s really no alternative to history that is even quasi-logical.
how people with IQs in the Normal range fail to comprehend this is a mystery to me (albeit, AmRenners, typically don’t have IQs in the normal range)…
if you inform them with a logical progression of their mistake, you get this;
As Mugabe said of another “these are people who need to get fucked in the ass until they beg for more”…there’s no other way!
now don’t get me wrong, Americans who don’t understand such basic concepts aren’t necessarily bad, so long as they don’t act upon their dumbassery.
i.e. aggressive Neanderthal amrenners will not listen when informed they are wrong, they will get angry, and stuck repeating the same line, despite the evidence, while more decent people will laugh awkwardly and ACKNOWLEDGE they know nothing on the subject and presume (correctly) that they are wrong. It’s about EGO, I suppose.
It’s not from Italians. It’s from the blacks, islanders and Mexicans.
Islanders?
Who are they?
Long Island people or Cubans?
The latter is prole, typically (although Ted Cruz is pretty non-Prole) but the former is *typically* not.
I just remembered my Aunt (by-marriage) has family that is South Italian. They were well-off, but relative to a well-off somebody of another ethnicity they are a tad more prole, but that’s okay.
JS is right that White Latin Americans are prolier than even Anglos, as well.
Educated White Latin Americans are a step above Anglo Proles. Hispanicism Proleness is not offensive, because it’s expected. American bourgeois are proles, but claim they are not.
certainly. There’s a reason it’s said that Argentines ‘are more European than most Europeans’- it’s just that modern day brain dead proles don’t know the difference between Mestizo and White Spanish, before they didn’t White Latin American culture was, to the non-proles (not Nordicst leaning prole fuckwits) to be high-brow.
But Cubans, are to me, an exception;
i.e. “Judge Millian”;
they have such a desire to be good Anglo-Proles that they start acting like them, lol….
The Superiority of Spain created the Mestizo, Castizo and the Mulatto, and then gave them a new nation. Anglo-Proles to this day, do not know what to do with their colonial subjects. And Spain knew about HBD long before Rushton.
That’s quite correct. Cubans are proles, more so than White Puerto Rican types, either here in the States and on the Island. And yes, it’s true, educated Puerto Ricans are classier than Cubans, who want to be like the Anglo Proles. Even Hugo Chavez of Venezuela was classier than any White Cuban.
The problem with Cubans is their communism, which is of Marx, an Ashkenazi Prole, then you have the strivers who emulate the upper middle class of the Anglo-Sphere. Prole and Prole, double prole!
And speaking of Europe, noticed many Continental Europeans of the higher classes with an education, do not care for Monaco. Monaco is the European version of Las Vegas and Donald Trumpville. Only Anglos seem to be infatuated with it.
Spain has done so much for the new world, and now it’s descendants in the U.S. are going to be thrown in the oven with Mestizos.
Pathetic.
Step #1 to make America great again:
Sentence Dump and Mann Coulter to death and publicly execute them, they are the source of the above mentioned ideas/future.
How Americans can’t tell the difference between a Mestizo and a Spaniard is one of the greatest mysteries of psychology of all time.
1. It’s basic, basic, basic, level one history (if you have any knowledge of the origins of the discovery of the new world you should understand this concept)
2. It’s basic, basic, basic level one geography (Spain is in Europe)
3. It’s basic, basic, basic level one linguistic (Spanish, and Portuguese for that matter, are Latin languages).
how people with verbal IQs above -4 SDs from the mean don’t understand this is mind blowing to me.
Mestizos come in varying degrees of native ancestry. Those who look predominantly White, could pass as Spaniards. Mestizo is technically half native/half Spanish, but today few people in Latin America are such, they are either very native in appearance, or more on the Spanish side. Castizo is 75% White, 25% Native.
I’d say the least prole Latin-American subset are the Colombians- even mestizo ones are less prole on average, compared to your average Anglo.
This is evidenced by people I know, and watching the Colombian produced Pablo Escobar drama.
Yes, we all know Anglos are proles. Anglo Canada is prolier than French Quebec. Australia is prole, and the UK is very prole.
Jorge Videla in the eyes of Anglo Proles, was not White because of his phenotype, despite being an anti-semite and staunch Eurocentrist.
This goes to show you that Anglo Proles are a confused bunch. Again, Anglos to this day, do not know what to do with their colonial subjects, hence all the deep seated racism and social dysfunctionalism in all English Speaking countries. They are the most severe and a lost cause.
“Step #1 to make America great again:
Sentence Dump and Mann Coulter to death and publicly execute them, they are the source of the above mentioned ideas/future.”
WRONG.
though…i will credit “Another William Playfair” with the ability to think outside the standard HBD box…if only that much.
plenty of his counter-propositions are retarded.
Your average “mestizo” is, as you hinted at, really like 75% Amerind and 25% White.
But, regardless, they should still be able to distinguish those people from Spaniards (using the up to 1/8 Amerind standard).
It’s not only that, these people think, theoretically, that *Evo Morales* and *Cameron Diaz* are part of the same race (well, half of Cameron Diaz, that is, although Blondes often get a free pass);
Also,
part of the reason I defend Jews, is, that simply pushing blame to them for the demographical changes, and increasing ignorance of our youth is lifting any responsibility for those things from the Anglos.
I think the Anglos, had the issue of really being basically uncivilized/isolated from Europe for so much longer the rest, they were conquered by the Romans later, but unlike Germany, did not form an Empire/were united shortly afterwards (Germans in the Holy Roman Empire in 800)- I also thing isolation from Europe and the continental politics made us (I’m a little less than half-Anglo) not have a capacity for government.
treefiddy-
thanks.
“Thinking outside the box” entails the good and the bad.
You should join Robert Lindsay’s Alt-Left…..
i’m not left-wing…not on many important things, at least.
ultimately, I just hope that rational thought can be applied to this whole thing, here and in Europe (the Europeans will be better at it), and the Alt-Reichers are INCAPABLE of doing that…just look at any one of their website’s comments- AmRen, Breitfart, Trump’s facebook page, etc. Practically incoherent a lot of the time…
they are pretty much ex-Neo-Cons who desired something a little bit more than the dog whistles they were getting in regards to race and ethnicity, no it’s going to lead to Anglo-Proliness carrying the day, destruction of the proud Spanish and SW Asian peoples, and a general economic and moral clusterfuck.
I want to get *as far away* from the U.S. as possible, almost immediately, and most of Europe, too….but to where?
Australia?
Australia is another Anglo Cesspool. Expensive, with a low quality of life, and too many non-Whites.
It’s hard to admit, but Anglo proles are doomed, those who have been priced out of their own countries. The numbers will continue to rise. Most cannot speak a foreign language, and are shut out of job opportunities overseas.
*now* not “no”
And I would agree with you, White Cubans are very prole, prolier than any educated mulatto type from the Hispanic Caribbean. Hugo Chavez was classier than any White Cuban.
British make Australian landscapes look boring. Sydney is like Tampa with steroids, lol
Melbourne is a try of the Liverpool in the Meridional hemisphere.
But the orderness of the british mindset make Australia during most part of our history a safe and calm place.
Mexico have more beautiful european architecture (and pre-colombian as well) than most of USA and Canada together AND just look to the canadian Quebec….
(i can being histrionic..)
you can differentiates where a latin-influenced areas start and where a anglo-uber-industrialized areas finish.
Yes, Quebec and Montreal are classier than any place in New York City, with its wealthy Jews and Anglo-Prole types. Then you have America proper-the real USA, which is just as ugly and boring of a wasteland, with old machinery, instead of old rotting buildings.
It’s amazing how Lion’s themes have spilled over on a HBD blog such as this. But then, America is all about HBD, and now, it’s the ultimate HBD land. Higher IQ people in America are literally putting dumb people out of fashion.
Pumpkin needs to visit Manhattan for all of his HBD needs. The city has everything that a HBDer can observe. Manhattan has eliminated much of the black demographic through liberal programs and Hispanic immigration, and yes, White people are very selfish (ethnic/racial interests at play), and now even more so. Poor Jews, however are able to withstand the test of time. This is because Ashkenazi are more clever than Whites, and know how to adapt and pool resources due to higher IQs, where they stay in Manhattan for free, where as blacks completely lose out to these wealthy residents.

In that NYT article, it talks about the Google building in New York. It is not far from the residential buildings where the poor live. But Google do not create jobs for them, because these poor people tend to have lower IQs, and cannot work in the technology field.
lol
okay, I’ll give you that. That picture is fucking hilarious. Can’t help but chuckle every time I scroll by it.
Yes they do.
https://notpoliticallycorrect.me/2016/06/22/marriage-divorce-and-genetic-similarity-theory/
Jews are the only group, least likely to form interracial bonds with blacks. Studies have shown it. blacks only make good exploitative subjects to them, and that is it. Perhaps Jews are too educated, too elitist, with too high of an IQ, to think highly of them, and this is coming from a HBD viewpoint.
I’ve never met anyone personally, who is half black and half jewish.
Cochran debunked the common anti-HBD argument on his blog within a paragraph:
“Why he does he deny the results of behavioral genetics, particularly the high heritability of IQ? The same reason that Marc Feldman does – because he doesn’t like those results, what else? There’s nothing like bringing up an argument that could be true in some other world, but just happens not to be in this one. Couldn’t populations that do poorly in one environment have superior performance in another? Sure – but there’s no existing environment where that reversal actually happens. The rank-ordering on IQ is the same everywhere.”
https://westhunt.wordpress.com/2015/01/20/lewontin-wins-the-craaford-prize/
Unless the anti-HBD commentators on this blog ever gave an example of that, it’s a succinct way of calling out their bullshit
I don’t think anyone here is an HBD denier….except maybe afrospaiens.
and me…that is, environment-independent HBD. it’s barely one step above blank-slate-ism.
and afrosapiens is retarded.
the misuse of the word is problematic,

for most of hbdears
”iq = intelligence”
or even worst
iq is BETTER than intelligence
iq is a statistical result of the cognitive paper-test, is not heritable in the same way a specialization in painting techniques or Beethoven symphonies are not heritable.
creativity and intelligence dispositon yes they are heritable
thankuverumuch
IQ is useful to the extent that in can predict some success, but as for “General cognitive ability” it appears that, based on the fact that IQ scores correlate higher with parents, as age goes on, that environment and genes do interact, meaning the “General cognitive ability” is not universal, but it can be a good indicator when variables are held even somewhat constant.
Iq is useful because it measure the cognition, i mean, our capacity to think and solve problems in a descontextualized scenarios, like a simulation of the reality. To really measure the real intelligence of the people you must need measure how they interpret (possibly interact) the real world. Brexit case is a good example of how you can measure real intelligence. This is a real general intelligence.
There are some very common current misunderstood as ”smart” people are always smarter than ”less-smart” people. Just look for Brexit referendum!!! Most of, based on hbb criteria, the smartest of the british people voted to the remain while most of not-so-smartest of the british people voted to the leave.
Humans have four fundamental possibilities of thinking/approach (although most of us will be mixed): instinctive, emotional,logical and rational.
like a jo-ke-po (rock, paper and scissor) Sometimes a instinctive approach will be stronger than a emotional or logical approach, rational is the only one that will be most of the time winner than others.
Brexit was a instinctive referendum, primarily
”you prefer long term national security or economy”
most of smarter conservatives in Britain choose economy
”You prefer long term national security or multicult”
most of smarter liberals in Britain choose multicult
i’m still try to understand why so much so-called smarter people, i mean, those who have comparatively higher iq scores, tend to be so stupid in politics and how this phenomenon affect their rational (analytical-critical-moral) capacity to do good judgments about the world in other aspects**
seems most of the ”smarter” ones are just like other cognitive groups. They are not smarter exactly because they are more rational, even there is some reasonable correlation between iq levels and rationality. But because they are the smarter WORKERS, so-called professional classes. I nail it.
Make sense that in a over-emphasised-work society the best of the workers were being selected instead the real smartest.
Iq = cognition = cognitive potential ( like raven matrices: is interesting to analyse our pattern recognition in a descontextualized scenario or in ”non-scenario”, but the world itself is a constant simple-to-complex pattern recognitions )
people seems forget that we are as cognitive/smart entities firstly a thinker being. If your thinking was wrong your action will just follow your first decision.
Supposedly the smarter masses will be universally smarter but it’s not showing.
the best of the students will be always the best of the thinkers** i really don’t so

That’s because smart people get co-opted by the system. It’s the dumb people who can’t adapt the system to their advantage and end up resenting it, thus seeing its flaws more clearly.
There is nothing “dumb” about not adapting to a sick and stupid system.
Your idea of smart is consists of opportunistic sociopathy.
Kaczynski didn’t adapt. Kim Kardashian has, by inter alia whoring herself out to the media.
Are the Kardashians smarter than Kaczynski? Really?
they are under your worldview
Most humans are evil, so the smart ones tend profit off their evil.
If Kaczynski had the same body, temperment, incentive structure & luck as Kim Kardashian, he’d be much, much richer than her.
Adapt to the system that is genocide them??
Do you think liberalism is a smart choice??
If the answer is yew explain why
So called smarter are pussy absolutely convenient with the evil.
Many smart people don’t even care if they have kids, so why would they care if their race disappears. They don’t even care if their families disappear. It’s not their problem, it’s their genes’ problem.
Only those ethnic groups that are wired for both intelligence & ethnocentricism will use their intelligence to their genetic advantage. The rest will just use it for their personal advantage, which in their case, conflicts with their genetic advantage, because those humans did not evolve to thrive in globalism.
“The rank-ordering on IQ is the same everywhere.”
WRONG.
whites from the early 20th century did worse on IQ tests than modern Africans. (Note how this blows environmental determinism to pieces.)
east africans do much better in les Etats than whites…or compared to their coethnics in africa.
japanese burakumin do horribly in Japan…yet…overseas they’re essentially indistinguishable.
Ugh, this moderation is unbearable. Pumpkin hurry up and approve it so I can move on with my life.

No, because it just posted… fuck it ill repost the full comment and see if it works this time.
““seem to be temperate, the central and North central regions of Spain seem to be some hardcore desert.
pp should do a post on selection in dry climates (as opposed to cold)- surely it’s not easy to survive like you say it is in Sub-Saharan Africa?”
It’s not. It’s just another anti-black narrative of alt right nut jobs. you should read this link william:
http://rstb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/367/1599/2130
It explains the main differences in in selection pressure driving encephalization between africa and eurasia
To put it as simple as possible, Africans hominid’s encephalization was mostly caused by species turnover(possibly due to higher mutation rates, higher genetic diversity, and more inter/intra species conflict.) while european hominids’s encephalization was usually following a migration event and were then followed by a continued within lineage encephalization especially within homo erectus and homo neanderthalis.
Curiously homo sapiens saw little to no within lineage encephalization( they seemed to have just appeared with their big brains and all) until they migrated to europe.
This lends more credibility to Dunbar’s(and to a greater extent my) ideas:
Basically the cold “forces” the evolution of bigger and more spherical brains and at higher latitudes bigger orbital sockets and a bigger visual cortex are desirable(which could increase spatial IQ). This is all because of simple physics: objects with more surface area lose heat quicker so more compact ones should retain more heat.
However, You just have too look at the differences between neanderthals and the first homo sapiens to see which selective process is better. homo sapiens were more neotenized, more creative, taller, had bigger genitalia, and won the evolutionary arms race in the end.”
Wow I triedd to post the full thing and it didn’t do it, I’ll try changing my IP
It isn’t that important I guess just check out the link it was pertaining to this comment you made:
““seem to be temperate, the central and North central regions of Spain seem to be some hardcore desert.
pp should do a post on selection in dry climates (as opposed to cold)- surely it’s not easy to survive like you say it is in Sub-Saharan Africa?”
Basically I was just saying that the processes that caused encephalization in Africa(higher mutation rates, higher genetic diversity, higher species turnover rate and more inter/intra species conflict.) differ from the ones that caused it in Europe(Migration events,Bergman’s principle, allen’s rule, lower light levels that lead to increased spatial IQ’s, and increased necessity for resources)
Neanderthals and Homoerectus were shown to have within lineage encephalization after their respective migration events.
However, I believe that the first processes lead to a more “desirable” hominid. Homosapiens were taller, more neotenous, had “bigger dongs” and were more creative than neanderthals.
The link explains all of this in much greater detail.
so it was saying that evolution is really not occurring at a constant rate, it starts suddenly and stops suddenly, and even so is modeled by a logarithmic/ non-linear function?
It was a little thick for me :), but I do get some technical points and the gist (I think)…
One criticism of Lynn’s IQ study was that the Kalahari was too tough for the Bushmen to survive with such low IQs/ mental ages.
It in many ways goes to show the notion that you can’t give SAT/GRE/tests that do a certain extent rely on school learning (the correlation to IQ does not imply causation/it is an IQ test, it’s just that in controlled/developed countries, students with higher IQs learn better, but if you have no education, it’s a terrible indicator).
“so it was saying that evolution is really not occurring at a constant rate, it starts suddenly and stops suddenly, and even so is modeled by a logarithmic/ non-linear function?”
Sort of. While the main point of the paper was to falsify the climatic variability hypothesis(a mainstream cousin of the cold climate theory HBDers love to embrace) A huge part was the fact that the paper seemed to identify key differences in the characteristics of encephalization that acted upon in hominids in Europe and Africa.
While both african and european hominids showed a gradual increase in brain size there were totally different causes:
Africa is an incredibly harsh place to survive it’s home to thousands upon thousands of venomous and poisonous insects and reptiles and is littered with prides of lions, alligators, hippos, hyenas etc. So it would be incredibly ignorant to claim that such a place would be less harsh than a cold environment.
Africa is so harsh in fact that Hominid encephalization there was mostly driven by high species turnover. Meaning a species didn’t see any brain increases within it’s own populations usually it would go extinct while a new bigger brained population rose to dominance.
If you take a look at Figure 1b it shows that homo-erectus in africa didn’t change in brain size at all for about a million years and then suddenly around the 1 mya mark homo-heidelbergensis appeared and had a bigger brain size than homo-erectus. While in eurasia homo-erectus’ brain increased gradually overtime and eventually evolved into homo-heidelbergensis. Homo-heidelbergensis encephalized gradually as well.
Homo-sapien appeared randomly, big brain and all and when it migrated to eurasia we suddenly see a big step change in brain size followed by a slower gradual increase over time. It seems that when a hominid species migrates(to any environment not specifically a cold one) there seems to be a “founder effect” where a sudden increase in brain size occurs, but lets say that the new location is in fact a cold one then there will be a gradual increase in brain size overtime because of the physical demands on the brain and body in a colder environment( again see Allen’s rule and bergman’s principle).
Africans have higher levels of genetic diversity but it seems a lot of it is junk DNA however, within this junk dna there are a lot of Hox genes which to make a long story short, can cause more “severe” mutations allowing greater leaps in anatomical dfferences within relatively short time. this video goes to great detail about it and it’s for beginners so you should be able to get it but honestly I think this may be a cause for the stark differences in encephalization between eurasian and african hominids:
To put as simple as possible I believe brain size increased because of sexual selection,and high mutation rates in africa while eurasians encephalized because of the cold weather and migratory bottlenecks
“One criticism of Lynn’s IQ study was that the Kalahari was too tough for the Bushmen to survive with such low IQs/ mental ages.”
One thing to note is that hunter gatherers are REALLY good at their job:

Not only do they survive the kalahari desert(which no child could) they are good at it too.
Bushmen and the like might be child like in their math and reading skills but, this link gave me interest. Someone had discovered that children understood complex math but could not replicate the skill in a educational setting I’m not sure if this is the right link but i think it is:

Sorry for the long ass wall of text but anthropology is a passion 😀
so while Whites had brains that in lieu perhaps of sexual selection, would simply have mutated to larger size because of the climate shift, while Blacks were selected for it?
Yes and no. See whites and blacks are still homo-sapiens when blacks moved to eurasia they grew in brain size because of a bottle neck and then continued to grow in size because of the cold weather’s demands on brain and body shape.
Homosapiens had originally evolved in africa but because it isnt quite as cold, their neotenous heads and large brains probably evolved due to sexual selection caused by larger mutation rates and their larger mutation rates are caused by the fact that african hominids tend to have more genetic diversity.
It’s akin to black smithing where metal is heated to such high temperatures it loses form and entropy increases but once it is shaped and then dunked into cold water it hardens it’s form and entropy decreases.
Blacks are the heated metal without form and the whites are finished metal.

Sorry didnt mean to post that twice

‘smarter’
before you venture into a cause, logically speaking, you need to know what you’re doing, know all the related variables ….
really don’t get why Pumpking started moderating the hell out of the comments and drove mugabe away…profanity aside, he contributed far more to the discourse than anyone else here.
Mugabe was basically just posting pictures of Black strap-ons by the end and ranting about “ch!nks” and “ch!nkess(es)”.
TRUE
the jew van Creveld knew as much.
the distinction between immigration and invasion is a falsity.
depends on the circumstances- I mean immigrants have consistently entered the U.S., in the big scheme/large scale (although limited at times) and it’s worked.
The system/type we have now is bad. It does need to be reformed.
how has it worked?
US whites are (culturally AND genetically) heterogeneous as hell too.
American exceptionalism is only true when it pertains to how insanely shitty the country is.
when european immigrants flow to the US and Canada in the half of XIX and begining of XX they were the same element of the ”autoctonous” CURRENT inhabitants, is like inter-continental transference of the same elements.
Like chineses immigrating to the Singapore.
The question is: even you’re right about the hipocrisy to be against immigration today if most white americans are descendent of immigrants…. but most of them are WHITES (lol),
immigrant is a less essential identity than white.
Early Merica was a white-nationalist nation with shy nordicistic ambitions.

RETARDED people are ENERGIC, lol
soooo cute this puppy!!!
(i don’t apologize their make up, i like it, but unfortunately, many times creativity don’t correlate very well with logics =( )
I’ve convinced my girl to get pregnant again next year. I’m Guna try to get into a bachelors degree program at some point. That’s the only qualification I don’t have to be a donor. Meanwhile I’m convincing my girl to try and surpass the current female world record for children at 70. Hopefully I can get her to at least 20. She doesn’t know how fertile she is
Pumpkin may have increased his genetic fitness more than he thinks if my plans come to fruition
Great one.
