Race does not exist. You got THAT right. It's just some subjective
little matter that does not play any role anywhere. But species do
exist. And cro-magnons are another species different from Modern Humans.

Species matter! Proof? One survives and leads and makes future of
mankind, another goes extinct, dude. Extinct! And it is always the less
evolved that goes extinct.

How many times have you read my ACOB (and other parallel) blogs from
beginning to end? You know what I'm talking about, but as a cro-magnon,
do not dare to address it. Your collective nature keeps you silent cause
other cro-magnons are staying silent on this.

Thank god you're an "engineer" :-( The worst, the most useless,
scientist is a cro-magnon scientist. They're a heap of no good dead
weight that true scientists have to constantly watch and keep them from
spreading lies. Science does not belong to cro-magnons. In their hands,
it becomes military industrial complexes. Why? Because you have a _fear_
deep into your nature. For good reasons too. The fear of sensing Modern
Human around you. A more evolved, more capable, more enduring Modern Human!

I'd go for the the Panamera. I like sedans better than SUV's.

If I was filthy rich, a Rolls-Royce Ghost would be great for cruising,
the only drawback being how "showy" it is.

A 911 for days when a sportier ride is desired.

Worse yet are the mandates that take away our freedoms.

Everyone knows that they want to be able to shut off our cars
remotely, to restrict our travel freedoms, right? And control when we
run our air conditions, and what we eat, and all sorts of other
things. Utter tyranny, is the plan.

I agree. There is no answer to the problems with mining. There is no
answer to the problems from being utterly dependant upon communist
China for everything from minerals to the completed car or solar panel
or wind turbine or power transformer.

The West takes a massive hit, while China laughs and builds a hundred
coal plants every year. They are happy to take our money and make
everything for us, until we are as dependant and as weak as babies.

It indeed looks like that. It might not have been obvious around 2010 or
so, but once Snowden revealed what kind of surveillance Westerners are
under and seeing the behaviour of Marxists since that time, it's pretty
clear that they want nothing less than total control.

Someone was circulating the theory that Trump's (and Musk's) desire to
annex both Canada and Greenland is the result of wanting access to the
minerals there, which are crucial to the development of electric
vehicles. I would imagine that there are lots of strategic military
reasons too. Maybe the man isn't joking...

Shipping, gas, oil, minerals, fisheries... Historically, Denmark hasn't
done well protecting its interests since the Danish-Hanseatic War and
certainly can't defend Greenland nor is an independent Greenland feasible.

Canada is a far reach but with Trudeau the Lesser quitting, who knows. The
SAM provinces might be weighing which is worse, DC or Ottawa.

The underage girls aren't yet mature enough to realize how much of a
loser the pedophile that was hitting on them is.

There will be lots of resistance simply because Canadians have
traditionally seen themselves as "better" than Americans and don't want
to be a part of the "inferior" culture. In reality, there is nothing
better here except for the women in Quebec. They look better than what
the US produces, but they're just as dim.

liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

The scary thing is how few children this subset of Whites has produced.

I'd say the 14 of us in that list have 10 offspring total

Poster Children
========== ========
-hh 0
Ahlstrom 1 daughter
Carpentier 0
D'Oliveiro 0
DFS 0
Feeb 0
Joel 0
Relf 2 (1 of each)
RonB 5 na
Slimer 1 son
candycane 0
rbowman 0
shitv 1 daughter
vallor 0

It should be at least 30 or 40, to carry on the race.

By comparison, my wife's 3 cousins that are a little younger than us
have 14 children between them.

More of your never-ending hairy-eared-Iranian ignorance.

"The prevalence of osteoarthritis increases with age, with the highest
incidence occurring in individuals between the ages of 55 and 64. It is
estimated that about 50% of people over the age of 65 will develop
osteoarthritis in at least one joint."

Also:

"Osteoarthritis (OA) is prevalent in Iran"

Whites in the US live longer and better than you hairy chimps in Iran.
It's no wonder you escaped that shithole country to live around
Caucasians. If you weren't welcomed here, it would've been another
White Western country, of course.

"Where do most Iranians migrate to?
Iranian diaspora - Wikipedia. Over one million of these people and
their extended families live in the United States, with anywhere between
100k-500k living in countries such as Australia, Canada, Germany,
Israel, Sweden, Turkey, and the United Kingdom."

heh! Just how bad do you hirsute freaks want blue eyes and blonde hair?

Arguments based that down into genes don't mean anything. We all share
genes with mice too, so ... Are they any basis on which we decide who's
cro-magnon human and who Modern Human? Such arguments won't apply and
are all beside the point.

The argument that makes you a cro-magnon species and me a Modern Human
is based on much more recent events, and involving the last ice age
trapping the Africans who'd gotten to Europe. They've got everything to
do with geography and temperature, especially the amount of exposure to
sunlight. Only and only the tiny percentage of them which happened to
get born albino could get enough sun to survive in long term scales.

I'm not some "engineer" man's fucking tutor. Go dig them out for
yourself, and if you are any capable, think past what they tell you as
well about stuff they cannot tell you cause they're often cro-magnons
themselves.

the USA any time soon. The culture/system/history is
just too different for a good fit.

Trump makes these statements For EFFECT ... not because
he's really serious. He mostly wants Canada to deal with
all the immigrants coming down. He's a native salesman
and thus creates grand illusions - intending to deal
somewhere to the middle.

With Greenland, for example, it was barely a week after
he talked about buying/occupying that Denmark suddenly
put a LOT more money into defense efforts there. This
is more what he really wanted. As an actual territory,
Greenland would be a huge money-loser. SO, real world,
expect more EU and US military watch bases there. That
is 'good enough'.

The Woke seem confused on that issue. Of course the Woke aren't having a
very good time right now, so they may a little constipated. Ford, McDonald's
and Walmart are the latest to drop (or curtail) the DEI BS.

It's not a matter of thinking. They've been brainwashed into believing
emotion equals reason. Whatever the latest talking point on CNN or MSNBC
they're glom on to it for dear life (probably teary-eyed when they do).

Which race of dog have you owned?

There's far more variation between dog breeds than between human "races".

I always get a laugh when some white dude, seeing the children of a biracial
couple, says, "they look black".

Meanwhile, the black dude says "they look white". :-D

Greenland would be a great place to put all the wannabe migrants. Let
them prove their worth there, for a few years, before letting them
into the mainland.

I was consultant on such a study twenty years ago. No, its purpose
wasn't to restrict travel freedoms: it was that police pursuits often
becoming high speed chases which were dangerous to the public, as they
often ended in a crash with collateral damage/death to innocent bystanders.

If you want safe food, expect restrictions on the dangerous stuff.

Golly, its interesting to see the goalpost shift here from "it ain't
happening at all" to now being "oh, but its too expensive to fix".

Depends on what answer one is looking for: a short term gratification
of cheap energy, or more holistic perspective of addressing the costs of
most of its actual externality costs too? For example, a "clean up the
mess you've caused" tax to pay for the damage that it is doing (and has
done) would create the market incentive to reduce its externality costs,
and shift the market to less bad alternatives...even if the tax money is

True, the West has allowed short term capitalism to be the priority and
outweigh strategic positioning, but there has been some leadership to
allow some rebalancing. For example, because of policy, domestic
manufacturing capacity of solar cells has quadrupled since Biden took
office.

Yet we keep on buying stuff at WalMart, because we're unwilling to pay
more for domestically produced.

Gosh, its almost as if there strategically needs to be Federal mandates
which prevent us from being so dumb and avoid doing what we know is
profoundly bad for us ... but there's folks who bitch it "takes away our
freedoms": one can't have your cake & eat it too.

Anyone who knows, knows this.

There are two groups of "underage" girls:

1) Those that you pick up.

2) Those that pick up you.

Quiz:

Which of the two aforementioned groups is the larger?

Times's up!

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

It is looking like the next generation is going to be a lot more
productive in that respect since conservatism seems to be very popular
with them. However, the biggest issue shouldn't be raising the birth
rate; it should be decreasing the birth rate of people who produce
children because the government rewards them for doing so. Here in
Quebec, Muslims produce a platoon of children because the government aid
they receive for each one of them accumulates to such an extent that
they don't need to work at all. They feed them bugs or whatever the heck
Muslims eat and drive around in a shitty, rusty Dodge Caravan, so you
know their expenses are low. They are basically being paid to replace
the productive population with garbage people who go on to create
criminal or rape gangs and terrorists.

If you don't believe that last part, tell yourself that here in
Montreal, the area of St-Léonard used to be Italian and peaceful. Now,
it's overrun with Algerians (who used to be the people who terrorized
the Mediterranean as pirates, kidnapping coastal peoples and turning
them into slaves), and criminality has skyrocketed.
