Okay, so quick back story from an "old man" about why you no longer see "whites only" signs in the United states , as soon as I get done playing with my dog that seems to be wanting my attention
well the internet kinda made everything interstate commerce
not to mention most transactions are handled via credit card terminals which means most data is proably transfered over state lines
so where do you actually draw the line between local and interstate transaction now?
(this is not an argument one way or another, just bringing up points)
If my business only pays with cash and only accepts cash, would I be exempt?
I would say so, but im no lawyer
im just saying the lines between intrastate and interstate commerce has significally blurred (imo) since the advent of the internet and digital payment technologies
Prepping for a discussion;
race and crime: cultural Vs biological.
(Is the disproportionate representation of crime due to cultural/socioeconomic factors, or is it a biological difference; that blacks are just de-facto more violent?)
(Not gonna mention which side I'm intending to argue, as I want information from all sides.)
As is mentioned in "Theory of Race" by Wilson (1995), the discussion is "mired in an unproductive mix of controversy and silence" - and it's proving difficult to find sources that are up to date and relevant. Any helpful links would be much appreciated, if anyone has any to hand. (@tag me)
Nurture > nature
nurture = nature
morals are taught, not inherited
how we are nurtured effects our genetic growth and our ability to produce offspring, a minor example of that can be found here http://ccf.org/reproductiveresearchcenter/docs/agradoc356.pdf the effect of how you live your life on the life you bring into the world is noticible even on a genetic level given large populations and long scales of time this becomes the nature as culture and envirnments effect selection processes within the species which produces ofspring with different traits than those found outside the group that is breeding most often with itself than any outside group.
_Is this guy asking us to do his research for him_
that would be amusing
would be funny if i somehow got roped into doing that for someone to do a public debate
starting injectin falso info here and there 😃
LMAO no, I've been doing my own research too, just figured this might be a good place to find people who may already have some links to hand which could help me. Of course I'll be going through everything, as well as what I have so far.
my hypothosis is that you cannot simply take an average zygote from any person on earth and render an average person from them. their genetics has some effect on who they will become, as their treatment from conception to atleast the age of 25
longterm i think theres a relationship between genetics and envirnment that ultimately effects the diversion of species
Problem I'm having is the muddied waters - my compatriot keeps bringing up the race:IQ correlation (which he asserts is biological) and then the IQ:crime correlation to support his hypothesis that it's entirely biological.
Also states that race:crime is biological; he asserts this on the basis that on average, blacks have more testosterone and a higher fight-or-flight reflex... but since things like your posture, can chance your testosterone (and other brain chemicals), there's something to be said for a cultural/social reason for this too. Plus none of the studies I have found so far measure across cultures for the same races.
For example, the higher fight-or-flight reflex would be understandable for people who are constantly aware of external threats. #MudHutsVsDoubleGlazing
I mean, my main argument is "why does it matter".
Whether it's biological or cultural, you can't make policy around it.. you shouldn't, for example, make immigration policy that discriminates blacks because they have a higher propensity for violence.. that would be illiberal. But I really wanna drill down into the subject with him. Curiosity is peaked
im not sure how they messure testosterone averages between people but the only way i think there could be established a connection is by messuring the genes responcible for testosterone production because SO many factors go into testosterone levels in your native resting conditions that it can change after a few hours
The only problem I have is, Why are they obsessed with one race? If IQ is the problem, why not focus on high IQ people?
And not just the huawhite race?
My problem is that any result is meaningless realy
their argument is usually that iq and agression are conversely proportionate to eachother
You cant draw any policy based on this research
Because IQ is just a bi-line he's making to support his predetermined conclusion, imo. @shaving
And yeah @zutt , that's exactly what I said above
LOL shaving autocorrect
Like i dont mind them researching this
But you have to judge person based on his character
Not race
Yeah; but what's the point.
I'm with you there, but I still wanna have the discussion with him. Not just about why he thinks it's important, but also why he believes it to be true. Just out of curiosity more than anything.
when making national policys your almost always judging people by average traits relitive to group you can file them into
Yes but that is drawn on cultural grounds not racial grounds
As for why is alt right so obsessedwith it is simple
Well, I'm dead centre on this; There's no doubt looking at the figures that blacks commit more violent crime per capita than whites, in most countries. I don't believe it's entirely biological nor entirely cultural (though I think culture probably plays a bigger role; social disorganization theory)
I think it's worth examining the root cause, but as I mentioned in OP, the discussion is kinda taboo in the first place, which I think accounts for the "these kinds of people" arguments gaining traction
If you say that the problems with 3rd world migrants are due to their cultures that implies they can be taught adapt
If you say its natural you can say they are unable to coexist in one nation
And expell them all out
