especially with regards to the extreme similarity of fascists and communists

2017-01-31 09:42:34 UTC  

in terms of economies

2017-01-31 09:42:36 UTC  

in the long run

@diversity_is_racism Watched that Varg's video. Roman salute and Swastikas are ancient symbols unalienable from Europe

Here in South-East Europe, men used to greet each other with a wave of a hand and a greeting "Здраво" which means wishing good health to someone. Shaking hands was introduced with industrial revolution, and was unkown to common men who always approached each other with a sense of distance

I'm sick and tired of people who say that lone wolf attackers are cowards or made cowardly attacks

2017-01-31 14:06:12 UTC  

Lone wolf attackers are very courageous people, because unlike vigilantes of old days, they have nothing to hope to, and have nowhere to run or hide or to seek refuge nowadays

2017-01-31 14:06:29 UTC  

once they commit attacks they become the loneliest people on planet, denounced even by their family

2017-01-31 14:06:42 UTC  

and their only exit is either death or prison to life

Reminder that African-Americans don't cluster with Africans on PCAs.

(2003) Wickrama & Bryant analyze the community context of social resources and adolescent mental health.

They find that higher ethnic heterogeneity is associated with a greater risk of depression.

(2006) Matheson et al. analyze the relationships between urban neighbourhoods, chronic stress, gender, and depression.

They find that higher ethnic heterogeneity is associated with greater depression and stress.

(2003) Neumayer finds that higher ethnic heterogeneity in a country is associated with a higher frequency of suicides.

(2009) Das Cassandra & Di Rienzo find that higher ethnic diversity is associated with worsening environmental performance, greater pollution.

(2010) Dronkers finds that ethnic diversity is associated with decreases in PISA scores.

(2010) Ahlerup shows that higher ethnic diversity results in increased corruption, reduced growth, reduced economic development, worsened provisioning of public goods, and reduced income levels.

(2005) Lassen shows that higher ethnic diversity is associated with a larger informal, underground, hidden ("black market") economy.

(2010) Li shows that higher ethnic diversity is associated with less tax morale, i.e., a reduced likelihood or motivation to pay taxes.

(2011) Altheimer shows that higher levels of ethnic heterogeneity are associated with greater homicide rates.

http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0306624X11414813

(2011) Chon shows that while income inequality is not related to national homicide rates, but it is related to ethnic heterogeneity which is highly related to national homicide rates.

(2007) Newton discusses what he calls "The New Liberal Dilemma" of social trust in heterogeneous or otherwise mixed societies.

Newton states that this dilemma arises from the preponderance of evidence regarding heterogeneity indicating that ethnically, linguistically, religiously, or otherwise culturally mixed societies tend to be characterised by a wide range of social, economic, and political disadvantages and ails.

In the face of the overwhelming evidence against societal diversity, Liberals must choose whether they want a strong society that deviates from their egalitarian values or a fractured and dying one that - at the least - doesn't offend anyone too much.

Some of this evidence is presented below:

2017-01-31 16:07:13 UTC  

(Easterly & Levine, 1998; Knack & Keefer, 1997; Alesina et al., 2003) show that heterogeneous societies have poorer economic performance.

(Goldin & Katz, 1999; Alesina, Baqir & Easterly, 1999; Alesina & Glaeser, 2004; Benerjee, Iyer & Somanathan, 2005) show that heterogeneous societies spend less on public goods and (Mauro, 1995; La Porta et al., 1998) show that they deliver these goods less efficiently, less fairly, and to a lower standing.

(Easterly, 2000; Svennson, 1998; Alesina, Baqir & Easterly, 1999; Annett, 1999) show that heterogeneous societies are more corrupt and have larger black markets.

(Hero & Tolbert, 1996; Plotnick & Winters, 1985; Lind, 2003; Luttmer, 2001) show that heterogeneous societies have more uneven wealth distributions.

(Alesina, Baqir & Hoxby, 2004) show that heterogeneous societies are less likely to benefit from economies of scale.

(Mauro, 1995; Annett, 1999) show that diverse societies are less politically stable.

(Adelman & Morris, 1967) show that nation and state building is more difficult in diverse societies.

(Paxton, 2002: 266) shows that diverse societies tend to be less capable of democracy.

(Leigh, 2006a, 2006b; Eisenberg, 2006; Coffe & Geys, 2006; Glaeser et al., 2000; Helliwell, 1996; Knack & Keefer, 1997; Putnam, 2003; Alesina & La Ferarra, 1999; Zak & Knack, 2001; La Porta et al., 1997; Hero, 1998, 2003; Costa & Kahn, 2003) all show that mixed societies have reduced levels of social trust, civic cooperation, and social capital.

(Alesina & La Ferrarra, 1999; Costa & Kahn, 2003a, 2003b; Lassen, 2003) show that heterogeneous societies have lower rates of volunteering and participation in voluntary associations.

(Rice & Sumberg, 1997) show that heterogeneous societies have lower levels of civic culture and cultural development. Cultural homogeneity is also stayed by heterogeneity.

With all of this in mind, and no ostensible benefits to diversity, it cannot be said that a position of endorsement is tenable without resorting sheerly to ideology or an argument to faith in egalitarianism in lieu of data.

2017-01-31 16:13:52 UTC  

Good morning, gentlemen.

2017-01-31 16:14:44 UTC  

Good morning, lad.

2017-01-31 16:14:46 UTC  

Or, evening.

2017-01-31 16:15:02 UTC  

As applicable. 😀

2017-01-31 16:15:12 UTC  

How is everyone doing?

2017-01-31 16:15:30 UTC  

Great. Having a ball. You?

2017-01-31 16:16:52 UTC  

Doing just fine.

lol

One of the funnier parts is that he knows of dysgenics and acknowledges it for other countries but *not* Greece. He said Greece was dumber due to leading less but when the news showed they read more than previous generations he just denied the news was right.

2017-01-31 16:24:03 UTC  

wew Greece!

2017-01-31 16:25:42 UTC  

Yeah it was kind of a nothing burger argument.

(2016) Beauchamp finds evidence for contemporary genetic selection in the United States.

The majority of this natural selection is negative: IQ is decreasing, health is worsening, diseases are becoming more pronounced and pervasive, stature is falling, menarche is ocurring earlier, and predispositions to obesity are growing.

2017-01-31 16:30:54 UTC  

RIP

2017-01-31 16:31:28 UTC  

@HonorVirtutisPraemium What was that debate about, regarding Greek population

2017-01-31 16:32:17 UTC  

That it has undergone selection just as every other population.

2017-01-31 16:33:06 UTC  

I was saying that there is not perfect continuity between the ancient and modern Greeks because of a variety of mechanisms including genetic drift, population admixture, fertility differentials (included in g-drift), mutation, copy-number variation, and more. There's no possibility that they're the same or - at that - better.

2017-01-31 16:40:19 UTC  

It's obvious

2017-01-31 16:40:54 UTC  

Not only is selection for weakness combined with servility emphasized, but strong and autonomous carry an increasing burden

2017-01-31 16:49:18 UTC  

As for ancient Greeks, I certainly believe, unlike 99% of racial anthropologists (well, every true anthropology is raciaL) that ancient greek statues WERE NOT the accurate representation of overall greek populace

2017-01-31 16:49:42 UTC  

Even though they were certainly inspired by individuals of such constitution who lived among greeks

2017-01-31 16:51:22 UTC  

The busts of real personalities in Greece, like Aristotle or Plato, show persons with less emphasized nordic characteristics
