Don’t know much about history
Supposedly we are ruled by the cognitive elite, but, strikingly, when compared to the elite of a century ago, they don’t know much about history, don’t know much biology, don’t know much about a science book, don’t know much about the french they took. The members of the old elite would casually make interlingual puns, erudite references to ancient history and to the latest science of their day.  I am …
Google is evil
The official story for the shafting of General Petraeus is that: Central Intelligence Agency Director David Petraeus resigned after a probe into whether someone else was using his email led to the discovery that he was having an extramarital affair, according to several people briefed on the matter. A Federal Bureau of Investigation inquiry into use of Mr. Petraeus’s Gmail account led agents to believe the woman or someone close …
The damage caused by diversity
Diversity kills. Occidentalist has updated his survey of surveys. Despite radical social changes and a wide variety of testing regimes, American black IQ always tests out one standard deviation below American white IQ. Similar differences in character and criminal propensities are obvious. How big is one standard deviation?
Origins of Leftism
Bruce Charlton, who is usually wise except when his religion gets in the way of reality, argues that the origins of the left are not in Christianity, but rather in secularism, that Christianity became corrupted into leftism by becoming secular, rather than secular because corrupted into leftism. He is wrong. Christianity really is to blame. First Christians became leftists, then, being leftists, became secularists. Christianity became corrupted, then became secular …
The Dark Enlightenment
The fundamental realization of the Dark Enlightenment is that all men are not created equal, not individual men, nor the various groups and categories of men, nor are women equal to men, that these beliefs and others like them are religious beliefs, that society is just as religious as ever it was, with an official state religion of progressivism, but this is a new religion, an evil religion, and, if …
Religion and reaction.
Fosetti criticizes Bruce Charlton’s claim that there are only three sides: Christianity, Islam and secular Leftism Obviously most Christians are secular leftists, in that they have chucked the Gospel overboard because of all those horribly reactionary bits commanding patriarchy and commanding toleration of all sorts of things that progressives are not supposed to tolerate, and in the process they have demoted Christ the redeemer to Jesus the community organizer.

The neg in romance stories
The authors of A Billion Wicked Thoughts: What the Internet Tells Us About Sexual Relationships have surveyed thousands of porn sites and great stinking piles of slash romance fiction. It was a tough job, but someone had to do it. They tell us that the ideal-looking hero of a romance story has “dark hair,†which accents the “white teeth†in his “sensual mouth†curved into a “crooked smile.â€. But a …
Dude, where is my flying car?
The first man on the moon has died, and pretty soon the last men on the moon will be dead also. where are the space settlements? By the year 2000, we were supposed to have flying cars, space settlements, and cities that looked like this:
Legitimate rape
Todd is deep trouble for using the phrase “legitimate rapeâ€, for implying that a lot of rapes are not legitimate – implying that a lot of rape allegations are false rape allegations, or the post hoc reinterpretation of profoundly ambiguous events as rape. Evolutionary psychology predicts that women will be far more upset about consenting to sex with someone that they subsequently deem a creep or a loser, than actually being …
