Swiss fat cat with your horded Rosicrucian gold. I could survive a week off the calories you expend on two whole minutes of chauvinism.

Check your biases, privilege pig.

Well on a purely logical level, putting two biological/cultural groups into the same area without agreed conventions/goals appears to have rather poor outcomes, especially if one or more is “chauvinistic.” It helps nothing to pretend this is not so or that politicians do not put to use racial...

“Redneck” is a derogatory term for white laborers referring to the sun beating down their necks until reddened, you think white laborers are all stupid? “Villages” are typically far less environmentally impactful than urban areas. I believe labor is good for the soul and urban areas are...

I have no reason to believe that Iraq didn’t have chemical weapons (they’d use them on their own citizens before) and I have no reason to believe that the US had anything more than rumor to go on. US started war for Saudi interests, they’ve always been in bed together.

Many genes for light skin, rufosity and light eyes will have correlations, especially in modern regional populations whose recent ancestors were selected for all. This does not mean they have the same source. Even if two traits both evolved in two different parts of Europe and then traveled...

You say that now but granny is no fun at the dinner table if she’s gonna stare at that damn phone the whole time! Old people these days, I’ll tell ya...

I believe asking a Nordicist for an objective Balkan history won’t get you very far. Yes there were redheads there, yes they were likely very much (partially) ancestral to many of the modern populations of redheads today. No that doesn’t account for all redheads. No, Ashkenazi Jews having red...

Hope I look that good when I’m 80, let alone 104.

An I2a1b carrying IE proto-slav speaker had great genetic success 1800-2000 years ago. I2a is native European to the Mesolithic but that does not mean the males who carried I2a1b to success were Mesolithic survivors. I believe it is highly likely they were a tribe lead by a man who found himself...

What do we think will happen to Saudi Arabia if all they do is, say, open up to more capitalist investment? Are we going to ignore the basic slavery of Filipinos in Dubai and pretend Saudi Arabia could achieve all that Dubai has without it?

I have great misgivings for all the nonsense reification applied in taking tree models designed to help us understand larger migrations and trying to conform everything in all known languages to these trees. There are trees of languages yes, many languages directly descend from others but...

You know if Latins and others owned all the ports and ships then it would be expected that Albanians would pick up the words for sea based things (ship, sea, pier etc) from Latin and others. Old words fall by the wayside as they adopt the borrowed words they hear more often instead.

According to this guy, Albanian interacted with a (possibly extinct) Western Romance language, not Romanian: Madgearu, Alexandru; Gordon, Martin. The Wars of the Balkan Peninsula: Their Medieval Origins. pp. 146–147. Somebody who has the book could share those pages?

Political views aren’t meant to be held up to scrutiny. If they were it’d be a matter of science and empiricism. “Scientifically speaking,” the only politics that matter are those of power and how power is perceived, restricted and conferred. Any measure or any organization behind it, no matter...

I’m betting French-Canadian with some English and/or some other maybe East or South German and Slavic background.

The little light inside refrigerators suddenly makes a lot more sense to me.

Hi Maciamo, very interesting comments. People today also feel much less compunction to stay with one person, religiously or sexually. Religious and culturally heavy people, regardless our personal opinions about what is or isn’t necessary, have been the most successful throughout history...

Maciamo, I have moved my response to your thread on marriage: https://www.eupedia.com/forum/showpost.php?p=538668

Wife and I considered ourselves married before we were married. Getting legally married had to do with guaranteeing her rights and granting my surname which she loves. I see no reason why it can’t be contract based enforceable through government but not necessarily managed by them. Personally...
