What do we mean when we talk about race? Genetics, culture or a combination? Is it possible to quantify the nature/nurture relevance ratio? How about a child born from a black and a Jew, raised in Asia by a foster family? Which "race" do they get stamped on their Interwebz passport?
Culture results from genetics and environment. So, all of them. Yes. That kid is fucked. Also show me one instance in the entire world of that particular combination, just for kicks.

Come on, someone post some classic TA, please. This kind of OT is distracting, irritating and plain disgusting.
Didn't you mention not too long ago that you had met tribal people, that they were different from us, and that it was fascinating?
I think you refer to my words about nomads. They weren't tribal nomads actually, but yes they have a different, lighter stance towards life. It's the culture that's different. Different from me, I mean. I don't know about you, let alone about "us". Us bitcoiners? Us participants in the WO thread? Are you assuming I'm a thoroughbred Caucasian male? I could be ((( d_eddie ))) for all you know, or half-asian (Thai mom), or black or Inuit - well, I admit the latter's unlikely, but I could be. I guess you see what I mean.
If you are here then you are, at a minimum, some form of intelligent. And that's really what it comes down to in the end. High IQ populations do better than low IQ populations. As do individuals, on average.

Reality is what it is. Being disgusted with reality is needlessly limiting.
I'm not disgusted with reality. I'm disgusted with tireless back and forth drilling of the same old stuff by the few that care about it, to the detriment of the silent majority who doesn't mind a nice OT, but couldn't give fewer fucks about racist (un)subtleties than an annoyed honey badger.
You should. The entire western world is in a downward spiral, culturally, financially, in every way. And the better you understand it, the better you can prepare for the next few decades, the higher chance that you survive. Which I want you to. Don't die just because you were annoyed with people who spoke of what's to come.
