I guess I should probably say something about this... although, honestly, it’s hard to know where to even begin without getting sidetracked by how much everything seems to be spiraling lately. It’s just one thing after another, isn't it? Maybe I'm just being overly sensitive, but there’s a certain... a certain lack of cohesion in how things are being handled. It feels messy. Fragmented. Anyway, regarding what was mentioned earlier—I don't know. I suppose I have some thoughts, if you can call them that. It's all very deliberate, yet somehow completely disorganized at the same time. I might be wrong, obviously, but it feels like we're just circling the drain while everyone pretends everything is perfectly fine. It’s frustrating, I guess. Just... frustrating. kaže:
The genetic variations between races are actually pretty negligible. It’s been shown—well, I guess it's been established now—that the largest genetic gaps exist within Black populations. Specifically, if you look at the differences between two Khoikhoi individuals, those gaps can actually be wider than the differences found between a Swede and a Mongolian. It’s a bit much to wrap one's head around, I suppose, but that's how the data seems to shake out.

Look, just because there’s variation within specific subgroups doesn't somehow negate the existence of differences between racial groups. It's not an either-or situation. I mean, the differences exist on a completely different level entirely—genomic analysis is a whole other beast compared to just some simplistic percentage breakdown you see in a textbook. And honestly, just because people claim those differences are small... well, that doesn't actually prove anything. I guess you could say that the genetic difference between us and a chimpanzee is also incredibly small, if you really want to get technical about it. But we all know that's not how it works.

I suppose I should probably address this... though I'm not entirely sure where to begin. It’s all a bit much, isn't it? Everything feels sort of... scattered. I was thinking about it earlier—well, maybe I wasn't thinking, just drifting—but there's this sense that things aren't quite landing the way they ought to. It reminds me of how people react to news cycles in places like Chicago or even further out in Seattle... just this constant, frantic noise. And honestly? I find it exhausting. I mean, I might be wrong, I guess. Maybe I'm just being overly cautious or something. But you look at the way discussions unfold online, and it's just... it's messy. It lacks a certain... deliberation. Anyway, I digress. I tend to do that. I'll get sidetracked by a single thought and then suddenly I'm three miles down a rabbit hole. It's a habit. A bad one, perhaps. But regarding the actual point... I still feel we haven't quite touched the core of the issue. We're circling it, like a plane stuck in a holding pattern over some massive Midwestern airport, waiting for clearance that never seems to come. It's frustrating. Truly. kaže:
Where exactly is the proof that Black people are physically more capable than White people? I mean, seriously, where is the actual data? I guess I’m just asking because I feel like we throw these claims around without much substance sometimes. Maybe there are studies out there, or maybe not, but I haven't seen anything concrete that settles the debate once and for all. It feels like a lot of talk without much follow-through, if you know what I mean. Just seems... I don't know, unfinished.

Are you kidding me right now? Are you actually pulling my leg?

I mean, I could be wrong, obviously—I’m certainly no expert on these matters—but it seems to me like we're missing the forest for the trees. It's frustrating. Honestly, it's more than frustrating; it's exhausting to watch. I suppose I should probably stay quiet, but I can't help but feel like someone needs to say something. Just my two cents, I guess.

I was digging through some academic archives earlier—you know how it goes, getting lost in the weeds of old theses and deep-dive research papers—and I stumbled upon this massive PDF.

It's slow work, definitely. A bit tedious, I suppose. But there's a method to the madness, right? Just a thought.

And you'd better stick to being polite, because you really don't have the ground to stand on if you try some arrogant cursing. Maybe do a little research; we're talking about basic things here that are common knowledge to anyone who is even moderately informed. Just look at primates, for example.

In reality, there isn't much of a significant difference between a historical gap of 150 years or 250 years. Crack cocaine is just a weapon. Thanks for that observation; now I see exactly who I'm dealing with. When Americans were most oppressed, they also contributed the most. Academic achievement and the family unit of men and women among Americans in the US have been degrading since the late sixties.

The single-parenthood rate, which is on the rise... I think I've mentioned that at least once already.

The differences aren't exactly negligible. Even when you look at chimpanzees—our closest relatives—there's a 3% gap between us. That translates to roughly 90 million genes...
Recent research suggests that how our genetic material actually gets used matters way more than just how much of it we share... It’s less about the raw blueprint and more about how the body decides to execute the instructions...
Like I’ve said before, the genetic variance between two Hottentots from the same tribe is actually greater than what you'll find between a Swede and a Brazilian...

Are you seriously claiming that someone like a Hottentot would physically outperform a Russian or a Lapp out in Siberia or Lapland? Or that they’d just completely outclass a German or a Canadian up in the Alps? Are you actually pulling my leg here...

That’s just plain false. To my knowledge, not a single intelligence test has ever actually surpassed the local baseline characteristics of those people... There’s just no such thing as a universal metric that can fairly judge every single person on this planet... everything is too subjective for that....
If you’re going to claim something exists, then actually show us the proof instead of immediately jumping to attacks on liberals. I'm not one of them, so there's no need to drag me into that...

I haven't had the time to dig into this one yet...

Look, just because there’s variation within specific subgroups doesn't somehow negate the existence of differences between racial groups. It's not an either-or situation.

That argument is garbage, and you tried to back it up with an article about testicle size rather than penis size. Besides, I've never heard anyone claim that Black men have larger balls than us.

I also know that white men are highly sought after and popular lovers among Black women in Africa, much like how Black men and Turks are viewed in Finland and Scandinavia.

So, let me repeat: whether you mean to be arrogant or not, your claim is just plain nonsense. You should probably read what people are saying in the comments under that article too.

Plus, that whole thing is an article based on assumptions, not actual evidence...

In reality, there isn't much of a significant difference between a historical gap of 150 years or 250 years. Crack cocaine is just a weapon. Thanks for that observation; now I see exactly who I'm dealing with. When Americans were most oppressed, they also contributed the most. Academic achievement and the family unit of men and women among Americans in the US have been degrading since the late sixties.

The single-parenthood rate, which is on the rise... I think I've mentioned that at least once already.

The difference between 1699 and the 1980s is significant.

I used to think this stuff was all nonsense too, until the descendants of African Americans from Tuskegee won a lawsuit in the 90s that proved certain facts. In Tuskegee, a small town in the US, during a study funded by taxpayer money that started in the 30s and didn't end until 1972, poor Black men who had contracted syphilis were tricked into participating in a "treatment project" that—without their knowledge—offered absolutely no medical care. The researchers falsified documents to show improving health while doing nothing to stop a disease that causes tumors, paralysis, blindness, insanity, and death. One researcher actually said, "We have no further interest in these patients until they die." It was all done just to study biological weapons—basically, how fast a disease spreads through a population.
Since then, I’ve learned to believe a lot of things that initially seem like stupidity.

Your observation about oppression is pathetic. That's like saying Americans contributed the most when they were still colonial subjects. It's an argument worthy of a bottom-tier demagogue...

You haven't provided any sources or any proof.

What you're talking about doesn't actually hold water—where are your sources? Do you even have any evidence?
Robin Ramos2 said:We absolutely can be more moral if we subscribe to the superiority of our own value system. However, within the context of moral relativism—if everything is truly relative and there is no superior or inferior standard—then, I suppose, one could argue that something like female genital mutilation is just "cultural enrichment," or at least something we should show understanding toward because it belongs to a different, morally equivalent culture.

As far as genetics go, it's obvious there are genetic differences between races. That's just normal; different racial groups evolved under vastly different conditions. It’s clear that environment and surroundings are factors in the development of species and subspecies, and nobody would question the genetic differences between a North American Mustang or certain Arabian horse breeds. Yet, the moment you talk about humans, suddenly it becomes this massive taboo. It's plain to see that Black people are physically more capable than white people. Similarly, it’s clear they are less intelligent than white people, who in turn are less intelligent than Asian people. Regarding Black people, they also have a deficit in communication skills; over 80% of communication happens through facial expressions, yet in Black people, those facial expressions are far less developed. Etc, etc. Furthermore, regarding fidelity—which is tightly linked to the concept of responsibility toward offspring—it is known in the animal kingdom that individuals with a smaller ratio of penis size to body size tend to be more faithful. Black men, on average, have a larger ratio of penis size to body, and that reflects in their approach to monogamy. Studies of Black cultures indicate, with very few exceptions, an emphasis on reproductive success and an alpha-male culture of dominance, where the goal is to see who can fertilize more women and spread their seed.

In any case, you can claim that among white people there are bad fathers and that poor fatherhood is a consequence of poverty (is it really?? Or perhaps poverty is the logical consequence of a broken value system—this isn't meant to be a moral condemnation, just a techno-economic observation)—but it's clear that Africa has an extremely high number of single-parent households. It's also clear that Black Americans make up more than half of all single-parent households in the USA. Slavery is a common excuse, even though today's Black Americans are two or three generations removed from slavery (roughly how far we are from the end of the Turk invasions), and even though it's clear that Black people had much better family lives in the conservative 50s and 60s than they have in recent liberal decades. It's quite clear that children from single-parent families are more likely to end up as criminals or face milder or more severe socialization issues.


Genetic differences between races are practically negligible. Recent data even suggests that the genetic variance within Black populations—specifically among Hottentots—is actually greater than the variation you'd find between a Swede and a Mongol...

Where’s the actual evidence to support the claim that Black people are physically more capable than white people?

Where is the actual data to support the claim that whites are less intelligent than Asians, while being more intelligent than others...

There’s this supposed deficit in communication skills floating around. They say over 80% of how we connect happens through facial expressions, yet there's this claim that among Black Americans, those facial expressions are somehow less developed... but where is the actual evidence for that?

Looking further into the concept of fidelity, which is fundamentally tied to parental responsibility, there's some interesting data from the animal kingdom suggesting that species with a lower ratio of genital size relative to body mass tend to exhibit higher levels of faithfulness. When you look at certain demographics within the US, specifically Black Americans, there is a statistically higher ratio in this regard, which seems to correlate directly with their approach to monogamy—if you follow that logic... I’ll keep this civil and avoid using terms that might be more "accurate" to my actual thoughts on the matter, though the evidence points in that direction...

The Ottoman advance was halted outside Vienna back in 1683, and they were eventually pushed back past the Sava River by 1699. Slavery wasn't officially abolished until 1865. (though you had certain US states trying to sneak it back in later, only to have it struck down again), and the oppression of Black Americans persisted all the way through the 80s... not to mention the introduction of things like crack cocaine. And that's not even touching on the ongoing chaos happening in Africa.

It seems pretty obvious that Black families actually had a much more stable, high-quality family life during the conservative 50s and 60s compared to the hyper-liberal decades we've seen recently—but where's the proof?
Sam Jones4 said:There aren't any sources, because it’s just someone's take on things.

Maybe African Americans really are like that, but isn't that just totally normal when you're living in poverty? I mean, look at history here in the States—a hundred years ago, rural families used to have like ten kids! Who could possibly provide for all ten of them? Back then, white guys were probably pretty lousy fathers too.

I've had these exact same arguments before, and they can never produce a single shred of evidence, yet this nonsense gets spread around so efficiently. One guy even tried to claim we’re genetically more moral than Africans! I honestly couldn't believe what I was reading. So I told him, what's considered "moral" to you might be the opposite for someone else. There is absolutely no way we are more moral, let alone genetically. But it doesn't matter... it's useless.

Just pure idiots, honestly...
Robin Ramos2 said:It’s not exactly 'business as usual,' though. Just because crime isn't surging across the board doesn't mean certain liberal policies aren't creating massive headaches. The lack of a crime spike (? maybe) could probably be explained by the sheer amount of government spending on things like increased policing and CCTV, etc. But you really have to look at the specific subgroups that result from these liberal policies. The consequences definitely exist, but nobody talks about them because once leftist activists think they've 'fixed' one 'problem,' they immediately pivot the noise toward some other 'problem.' Case in Point is the way the government subsidizes single motherhood in the UK. If you look at any available data, single motherhood is almost a statistical guarantee for a path toward delinquency and poverty. It should be treated as a genuine issue, not as some acceptable substitute for the traditional family unit, which is exactly how the PC establishment treats it today. A mother's love and a welfare check aren't enough, and that's something the American psychologist Charles Murray warned about back in the '80s. He got crucified by the PC brigade then, much like how climate change skeptics get crucified today. This policy of sponsoring the single-parent model and acting like it's a perfectly valid alternative has resulted in the emergence of an entire unproductive, essentially useless—and more importantly, socially and economically damaging—underclass in Britain known as NEETs (not in employment, education, or training). Even the Labour government in the UK eventually had to admit this, despite being the ones responsible for this whole social engineering project. The same thing happened in the US before it hit the UK, where the breakdown of the traditional family structure among the Black population triggered a wave of crime that only subsided after abortion was legalized following the Roe vs Wade decision, which allowed pregnant Black teenagers to effectively abort away an entire generation of future criminals. Not to mention, the traditional family model isn't even that "traditional" for Black people in Africa, so there was no need to lure them into the single-mother trap—Black men are statistically far less inclined toward nurturing and responsibility, which is one of the primary reasons why the African continent struggles to establish a stable, functioning society. I'll attach an excerpt from an article discussing this exact issue in the UK.

Last week Blair made a rare speech about faith and morality in which he asserted that single mothers were “piling up problems for the future”. The comment was striking from the leader of a party that has traditionally defended single mothers and vehemently condemned those who have sought to stigmatise them.

Blair’s comments barely scratched the surface of what the administration is actually sweating over. It’s been sixteen years since Charles Murray sounded the alarm about a massive new underclass on the horizon, and if you look past the official talking points—the stuff the politicians conveniently ignore—it turns out his prediction came true. We're looking at the rise of the NEETs.

We’re talking about a group of 1.1 million people between the ages of 16 and 24, and honestly, the weight they pull on our economy and social fabric is just... well, it's massive compared to how many of them there actually are.

I mean, according to some pretty conservative estimates from the Department of Education, every single kid who drops out of school at 16 becomes a permanent line item on the taxpayer's bill. We're looking at an average lifetime cost of $125,000 per person, and in the absolute worst-case scenarios? That number climbs north of $380,000.

The ripple effects on crime rates, public health, and general chaos in our neighborhoods are just staggering. One study suggested that just one single group of 157,000 teenagers—those aged 16 to 18—could end up draining $19 billion from the US treasury by the time this cohort reaches the end of its life cycle around 2060.

Where exactly are you getting this from?
If we're talking about the US, sure, there's an argument to be made, but the root cause is slavery, which didn't just tear families apart—it actively prevented the very foundation of family life from ever taking hold.
Things only really started shifting back in the 80s, and you can't honestly expect all of that to just fix itself in twenty years...

But regarding Africa—what are your sources for that claim?

goldenpilot15 said:Look... sorry, but I honestly think that’s all a massive exaggeration and just plain hype. I know the Midwest used to rely heavily on wells, though I couldn't tell you about the rural South.
It reminds me of those old rumors about certain island communities being full of incestuous families before the modern era arrived. I was actually grabbing coffee once and chatting with a highly respected local historian who told me there might have been one or two such families on the entire island, and that the whole reputation was just wildly blown out of proportion.☕

It isn't an exaggeration at all. People tend to forget how things actually used to be in these parts. My grandfather was born in 1924, he'll be turning 90 this August, and he tells stories about what life was really like back then. He's originally from Slavonia, which back in the day felt like a completely different world compared to the rest of the country. He describes people as being worn down, ragged, living in little shacks made of mud. Every single morning he’d walk 6.2 miles on foot to the factory and back until he finally scraped enough together for a bicycle. And that's being generous—even today in some rural areas, you still hear the saying "you don't borrow a woman or a bike." No steady wages, just pure exploitation of workers...

And talking about the old days in Zagora, my grandad says folks used to trek on foot over the hills to get into the city. His wife would bake him a loaf of rustic, round farmhouse bread, he'd strap it to his back, and head out Sunday afternoon to make it by Monday morning. Then he’d work construction sites, eating away at that bread until Saturday when he’d start the long walk back over the hills to Zagora. He'd get home Saturday night, ask his wife for a quick meal, eat something other than bread on Sunday noon, and by Sunday afternoon, it was the same cycle all over again...

That was the reality for our people. You don't learn that in textbooks; they make it seem like everything was flowing with milk and honey until those wicked Communists showed up. Just think about it for a second... would so many people have been involved in all those various revolutionary movements—whether it was the Communist Party of America or the Nationalists—if things had truly been that good...

It’s what happens when you take a misunderstood Marxist doctrine and mash it together with a warped version of traditional Eastern philosophy, all filtered through the mindset of a totally primitive, uneducated populace. The result? A mass nightmare...

edit: I’m talking about North Korea and similar regimes here. I’m not looking to start a debate about our own country, though I might actually find common ground with some of you on certain points...


I wouldn't call them uneducated. In fact, it’s often self-taught people who cause the most trouble—that's where the real danger lies. Look at Stalin. You have these individuals who teach themselves everything and then walk around thinking they're the smartest people in the room, operating under this "I didn't need school or professors because I know just as much as you" mentality.

And those types tend to despise both the uneducated masses and actual intellectuals alike, which is how you end up with a "mass nightmare." For instance, back in the 50s, Pol Pot was involved in labor actions in America, and he drew conclusions from those experiences that led to something entirely different and grotesque. It's also interesting to note how Americans supported him, and even when the Vietnamese were finally taking him down, there were threats about resuming airstrikes on Vietnam...

I'm currently reading "child 44"—if you're interested in how these kinds of societies function, I'd definitely recommend it...

casualharbor9 said:This brings to mind some TV documentary from about 15 years ago; I think a BBC reporter was doing a semi-legal trek through some forbidden territories—places where people were teetering on the edge of starvation, and you could actually find human meat being sold under the table at a local city market... if I recall correctly, this was all still happening back while Kim Il-Sung was alive.
No regime has managed to cultivate such perverse levels of totalitarianism quite like certain Far East dictatorships. This North Korean situation feels eerily similar to what China went through during the Cultural Revolution... though one might argue the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia were actually worse (to them, even the Maoists—who used to force "deviant" party members to beat themselves with rulebooks until they passed out—were considered excessive).
And honestly, I find it hard to believe that Kim Jong-Il (is he still around?) ruled any better than his uncle did.
Things weren't exactly perfect here, but compared to them, we had it a little better...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-K9fv_oRvI

A bit better? Honestly, things were better here than in most capitalist nations, let alone compared to them...

Not to mention the reports from American anthropologists back in the 30s, which concluded that over 70% of Americans didn't even have their own beds, sleeping on haystacks alongside livestock. They didn't even touch upon other basic civilizational standards—they reported, quite horrified, how people in rural areas were drinking water from the same puddles as cattle, while tadpoles swam right next to their mouths...

And if that was the reality in the States, you can only imagine what it was like in places like Mexico, central and southern parts of the continent, or further south...

When the US was being established back in the day, it was practically lagging behind much more developed regions. A lot was actually accomplished during that era of communism, and if the Czechs, Poles, Canadians, etc., still have reason to complain, we don't really have much to whine about ourselves... Whatever people say today...
