Biology of Race

Endeavoring to repel a colonialist invasion of one’s country hardly makes one an “ethnonationalist.”

Yeah, I’d say Harpending is pretty damned illiterate as far as his comments on genetics and evolution are concerned.

I did. European is synonymous with white. So there is a European or white race.

Celts, Slavs, Germanics, Basques, they’re not races. They’re cultural and linguistic groups or tribes. The original Celts, Slavs, and Germanic people were all Nordic though, until they absorbed other kinds of white people.

I mean this is no disrespectful way (really), but I strongly suspected that you were going to suggest that in your response to my question that South American’s would be more progressive if they take on more European culture, which is what you did. You’re implying they would be better off with a white peoples’ ideology. Hence we hardly see non-white libertarians or ancaps. Has anyone on here met a non-white libertarian? I’m sure they’re out there, but in such an insignificant number.

Yes, that’s what I meant.

You might as well not bother posting the SPLC I don’t consider them a guiding light of morality.

Just be honest and say you’d never accept evidence for race and iq regardless of what’s presented

There’s no lie in anything I wrote. But I get it, the truth hurts.

Benefit of acknowledging IQ?

You would have known before a single bomb has dropped “nation building” will fail in Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq.

To clarify - are you in the camp that certain ideologies are only compatible with certain races?

Just looking for a clarification, not a treatise. Thanks.

Focusing on IQ is the equivalent of an NFL GM picking a WR based solely on their 40 time or a LB based solely on their 225 bench test.

That would be pretty dumb wouldn’t it?

Well remember that Marxism is European in origin also. That’s one of the most deadly and unjust ideas ever put into practice. Trial by combat is fairer than “to each according to his need”.

Edit:
I have met black libertarians, two of them. They’re an immigrant couple. He was from Trinidad and she was from Kenya. So they got to see screwed up government up close. As a rule very few people raised with a certain ideology ever switch. That’s why inner cities are permanently Dem despite the abject failure there. That’s why union vote switching toward Trump was such an outlier. Nobody saw that coming.

But you have to realize it is a really fringe ideology (you know individual sovereignty). Many republicans hate the Freedom caucus because they stick to their guns.

Modern Finnish research shows that countries with an IQ averaging less than 90 fail to create or maintain democracy. This explains why any attempt to bring democracy to countries with low IQ are doomed to failure. We can learn from Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq. Denmark is fast approaching a critical low IQ level, -Helmuth Nyborg.

IQ has a lot of predictive power

No, it really doesn’t, but whatever, I keeping forgetting the whole correlation/causation thing is an issue for you.

Maybe you should do some actual research on race and iq because it’s clear you have done zero

Right, that’s it…

No, it doesn’t, because IQ isn’t fixed. You (stupidly) assume that IQ is static, a biological feature like green eyes or a person’s height. That’s not so.

Start with the Bell Curve by Charles Murray

Yes, I should start with a highly controversial book you’ve bought hook line and sinker…

Gonna pass, homie.
