@AppyOrtho As a Southerner who loves his people and the region, he is right. The South used to be the height of elegance, dignity and nobility in America and itโ€™s been driven to cultural suicide, resulting in squatted, wiggerized pickup trucks and hillbilly hip hop.

@NotMikeHarlow Gay man here, I was in a monogamous relationship with my partner for 28 years. It only ended because he died from a stroke. You need to get out there and meet some real gay people and stop listening to stereotypes

@NotMikeHarlow The attempt to make open relationships the norm is horrifying, so I have to agree. Acting like wanting a monogamous relationship means you arenโ€™t as โ€œevolvedโ€ as they are, when theyโ€™re actually just incapable of restraint, is the gay gaslight of the century.

The argument that Rome fell because of immigration-driven population replacement doesn't really hold up when you look at the genetic and historical evidence. 90+% of the "immigrants" into Roman era Italy were ancient Greeks, coming from the most developed regions in the world with the most educated populations. They don't really count as immigrants since they were simply moving from one Roman province to another, and in most cases they were moving into areas of Italy that Greeks had already colonized and settled centuries earlier. The difference in the Imperial period is that they were now also moving into central and north Italy. So the basic premise of a totally foreign population flooding in is already wrong. What actually happened was the opposite of the decline story. They arrived centuries before the western collapse and a millennium and a half before the eastern one, and the populations they contributed to went on to produce some of the highest measured cognitive profiles in pre-modern Europe. Once you line up the genetics, the timeline, and the outcomes, this fairy tale falls apart. 90+% of the "immigrants" into Roman era Italy were ancient Greeks, coming from the most developed regions in the world with the most educated populations. They don't really count as immigrants since they were simply moving from one Roman province to another, and in most cases they were moving into areas of Italy that Greeks had already colonized and settled centuries earlier. The difference in the Imperial period is that they were now also moving into central and north Italy. You can see their genetic contribution clearly in modern Italians, which hasn't changed much since antiquity apart from minor Germanic admixture in the north. Southern Italians (Calabria, Campania, Sicily) carry 63โ€“67% Roman-era Ancient Greek-like ancestry. Central Italians (Lazio, Tuscany, Umbria, Marche) carry 49โ€“56%. Even northern Italians (Lombardy, Veneto, Liguria) carry 29โ€“33%. The same Roman-era Ancient Greek-like signal shows up at around 20% in Iberia. This is not a foreign population replacing natives because it's a continuation and expansion of a Mediterranean genetic cline that already existed. The samples from Imperial Italy, around 1โ€“200 AD (after the big migration into Italy had already happened), were mostly Greek mixed, and scored higher on PGS EDU/IQ than other Europeans, higher even than medieval Europeans who lived 1,000 years later. So the so-called "immigrants" were still smarter than the surrounding European populations. The timeline alone destroys the argument of collapse due to population replacement. The main Roman-era migration into Italy happened around 150โ€“50 BC. The western empire fell in 476 AD, roughly 500 to 600 years later. The eastern empire fell in 1453 AD, roughly 1,500 years later. What kind of "population replacement causes civilizational collapse" mechanism takes 600 to 1,500 years to produce its effect? At that point they're not actually describing a causal process, because when your supposed cause and effect are separated by 600 to 1,500 years with an entire functioning empire in between, they're just pointing at two distant events and asserting a connection without explaining how one led to the other. If you want to argue demographics mattered for 476 specifically, the only even remotely plausible candidate is Germanic migration, and specifically the fact that Germanic immigrants became overrepresented in military commands in the 4th and 5th centuries due to corrupt political decisions by emperors and regents. And those Germanics most likely had lower intelligence than the Italians they were displacing in military roles, since medieval samples from Germany and medieval Viking samples score lower on PGS IQ/EDU than Imperial Italian samples. But even this wasn't population replacement. It was a minority being overrepresented in military positions, not a demographic shift in Italy itself. The eastern half of the empire, populated by exactly the same Greek stock that had settled central Italy centuries earlier, continued for another 1,000 years and remained the most developed civilization for centuries after the West fell. The genetics were basically the same, yet the outcome was the opposite, which is something the hypothesis cannot explain. The actual genetic evidence, as far as it goes, points in the opposite direction. Pre-modern civilizations appear to show selection for higher intelligence and lower rates of mental disorders, not against.

@HeraldOfRome Greeks did not make up 90% of the migrants and slaves coming into Italy during the Western Roman empire. Many were Gauls, Iberians, Germans, Dacians, Numidians, Assyrians, Egyptians, etc And you seem to be suggesting that Greeks were somehow mentally superior. That's silly

@DancingEddie_ Don't worry too much about it, 90% of so called rizz is actually getting drunk/high or talking to escorts/whores and buying them what they want. There's no value in cultivating that skillset.

@walterkirn One can celebrate the peace while also questioning its permanency and criticizing how we got here. If someone kidnaps you, you donโ€™t say thank you when they release you.

We are in a propaganda war. The video of Pete Hegseth โ€œquoting a fake bible verse" from Pulp Fiction is yet another example. The original post came from RUSSIAN media and was then amplified by a Turkish psy-op account until it was picked up by major U.S. outlets. It didn't include the additional context that Hegseth said he was "badly paraphrasing Ezekiel." Outside forces are using social media to build outrage amongst the American people. WAKE UP. The war isnโ€™t just in the Middle East. Itโ€™s in your hand every time you open social media.

So weird how the Media/Swamp class, whoโ€™ve been wrong for generations on geopolitics, keep getting outsmarted by a guy they dump all day as their intellectual inferior. And next theyโ€™ll claim itโ€™s all โ€œluck.โ€ Itโ€™s not. Regardless, Iโ€™d rather side with someone โ€œlucky,โ€ who wins, rather than zeroes who are unlucky, and lose.
