Odds and Ends, 1/19/21

In der news.  In all cases, emphasis added.

A gift from the ethnonationalist filth.

Ethnonationalist hypocrisy:

Johnson:

The ethnonationalist vision is of a Europe — and a worldwide European diaspora — of a hundred flags, in which every self-conscious nation has at least one sovereign homeland, each of which will strive for the highest degree of homogeneity…

Ah, yes!  “…the highest degree of homogeneity.”  Very good!  Excellent!  So, John Morgan can get the hell out of Hungary and Full Moon Ancestry can end his intermittent Bang East Europe tours. I can’t wait!  And we all await, with bated breath, for Der Movement to criticize British expat colonies in other people’s nations to the same extent they decry “Polish plumbers” in the UK.

HBD begins to devour itself.  Good, good.

Most scientific discoveries have originated from Europe, and Europeans have won 20 times more Nobel Prizes than have Northeast Asians. We argue that this is explained not by IQ, but by interracial personality differences, underpinned by differences in gene distribution. In particular, the variance in scientific achievement is explained by differences in inquisitiveness (DRD4 7-repeat), psychological stability (5HTTLPR long form), and individualism (mu-opioid receptor gene; OPRM1 G allele). Northeast Asians tend to be lower in these psychological traits, which we argue are necessary for exceptional scientific accomplishments. Since these traits comprise a positive matrix, we constructed a q index (measuring curiosity) from these gene frequencies among world populations. It is found that both IQ scores and q index contribute significantly to the number of per capita Nobel Prizes.

From ancient natural philosophy to modern physics, the history of science has been dominated by Europeans.

Virtually everything said in this podcast about electoral politics is exactly what I have been saying on this blog for years. Years.  Interesting that Taylor explains why he is not interested in electoral politics.  OK, fair enough.  If someone is not interested, if they believe they are not suitable, who are we to say otherwise?  But what about really organizing and helping others who are so qualified?  Grooming Amren supporters for such?

The comments section gets into Sallis' Law as well as the failures of HBD. Some "North Indian" comes there and asks why he needs to leave America since he's so superior in every way (cognitive elitism!).  You see, if you follow the HBD approach of ignoring genetic kinship, ethnoracial identity, and High Culture/civilization, then, yes, I suppose a "high IQ Indian" is acceptable (of course, one has to evaluate the "q index" HBDism discussed above). But, the whole idea of White nationalism and racial preservationism is based on racial identity, and EGI is based on genetics, not to mention Yockeyism, which is based on High Culture and the overall Identity (racial, civilizational, etc.). The reason to exclude a South Asian is precisely because they are South Asian and not European, and it doesn't matter "what they contribute."

Then we get into Sallis' Law and the typical NEC behavior of using Southern Europeans as some sort of "racial yardstick" for comparison (phenotypically of course, genetics are ignored).  The alien Asian asserts that if he mated with a White woman, the mongrel offspring 'would look like an Italian or Greek."  So, we see the usual NEC mendacity in this regard.  Of course, it doesn't matter what this alien believes his potential mongrel offspring would look like, it matters what they would actually be, racially speaking (genetically half-Indian, and from outside the Western civilization).

What someone believes someone looks like is irrelevant; what matters is what they actually are.

Then we have Silver talking about "woppish Italians."  So, Sallis' Law is, as usual, in full force. Indeed, Sallis' Law is more of a natural law than anything you can find in physics.
