we need an epidemic

california can help with that

epidemic is not good enough, it kills pretty indiscriminately

I hear the black death is back

if only the earth would find a way to shake off the fleas. lmao. man i am way too negative. 😄

this problem would be extremely easy to deal with if you had the right government

yes, and theres no shortage of rats either

*right* government implies a perfect government

the solution to the original problem is obvious - a government controlled eugenic breeding program

and people have known it since the 19th century

that that was the solution

but that is so far off

my god

we've had a period of liberty and that time is reaching it's limits.

our governments are engaged in active dysgenics

on a massive scale

on multiple fronts

`paradigm shift 2070`

You don't even have to have a "breeding program" if you just have a system where quality men rise in social status.

not really nerth, selection mechanism became dysgenic after the industrial revolution

Liberty and Individualism seem to be good for periods of expansion, particularly expansion of human society and civilization into previously uninhabited or underutilized land

basically low population density = liberty and individualism will succeed

i remember some dude on this chat said there should be a lottery system for breeding. i think that came from like isaac asimov or something can't remember.

just wanna grill for g*d's sake

the extra material in the gene pool came from weak/poor individuals that became capable of surviving

it appears to fail at high population pressure

lmfao a lottery

that's retarded

yeah lol

only a liberal or a communist would propose such a thing

i called him out on that

social status does not automatically result in more children

for higher levels

in fact, it may be the opposite

at least today

yes

yes people will k-select themselves out of genetic relevance

and that problem does not solve the population expansion of undesirables

but before industrial revolution we were only breeding high iq people

it just doesn't

they will just breed
