As the cheaters spread, the mat deteriorates and eventually sinks to the bottom. WS is maintained in the total population by between-group selection, despite its selective disadvantage within groups, exactly as envisioned by multilevel selection theory (Rainey and Rainey 2003)

he's saying that we weren't calculating for polygenetic traits back when their theory was first proposed, and that current computer models show that their theory is plausible

ya as their models get more accurate it'll be exciting to see what happens

that isn't true by the way - the infinitesimal model has been around for ages

as for bacteria, they are almost clones of each other

What do you mean?

What isnt true

he is saying that critics were criticizing their theory by saying 1 trait = 1 gene, and that we know now that many genes affect a trait

but in the infinitesimal model it is assumed that an infinite number of alleles affect a trait

The Evolutionary Dominance of Ethnocentric Cooperation

http://jasss.soc.surrey.ac.uk/16/3/7.html

This is also a good read my friends. I think I’ve posted this elsewhere I forget. It is about ethnocentrism dominating all other strategies

In this simulation model

Ethnocentrism is a robust strategy and worked in other models also and under other initial variables so researchers determine this is not a “knife-edge effect” but, once again, a robust evolutionary stable strategy. Methinks if whites don’t adopt it soon we won’t be able to compete.

@Myndrian great article

Molyneux just tweeted about this topic, can't find it. anyone else see it?

Which topic? Ethnocentrism?

yes

i feel like i just saw him tweet about this

specifically wrt evolutionary success vs. "diversity"

isn't that what the article is about?

I think this one is “The Evolutionary Dominance of Ethnocentrism”

right

Errr ethnocentric cooperation. But he is right and is probably referring to the same thing

i think moly tweeted in direct and explicit reference to it

i'll try to find it

Ok sweet I’m to lazy sorry I’ll

Lol

"sorry I'll lol" lol wut

Also, can someone please meme this already. I don't have photoshop.

I’ll was supposed to be lol

We need a meme force

An IE meme force

I guess we already got one eh?

Develop a humorous memetic culture

Meme soldiers

This should be our main objective right now 👆🏻

Look at this dude.

He was the rapist or the rapee?

Was he raped?

lol what do you think
