Synopsis: A paper was written that suggests political affiliation is hard wired into us. Conservatives since Stone Age hunter gather times were better hunters and providers, they tended to protect the tribes because they were stronger and thus could pick prettier genetically fit women and reproduce more successfully. Leftists were inferior weaker, uglier, sicker and by necessity had to parasitize and control conservatives to survive.
Studies today show women who have better facial symmetry (pretty), are healthy and intelligent are more likely to be conservative. Men who are stronger, more successful, healthier and handsome are more likely conservative, In fact it’s such a strong correlation A.I. can now predict political bias with a high chance of success by facial recognition. Other studies show conservatives of both sexes today are better genetically fit, which is probably partially the cause for the differences.
Amazingly an unnamed study showed giving leftist men testosterone will cause them to unknowingly start picking more conservative candidates.
Leftists on the other hand are less likely to be able to self support, have higher mutation loads, have more physical and mental health problems and tend to pick candidates that offer social support and welfare programs.
As on any bell shaped curve of population many exceptions exist I imagine and he mentions.
In other words, liberals suck.
That isn't exactly true.
Conservatives are merely the people who get things done. They are the workers (followers and leaders), the moms and dads who raise families, the ones who put bread on the table, folks who go to school at night, who pay their own way (and wouldn't want a hand-out), guys and gals who think nothing about working 2 jobs to make ends meet.
Liberals are the handful of pamper pusses who are afraid to get their hands dirty...who would rather complain than fix the problems they see.
As Brooklyn Jews said about Bernie Sanders back during the 2020 election, every Jewish family in Brooklyn has a crazy uncle like Bernie. He doesn't have a job but he's got a lot of passion about how the government should destroy yours.
Right, I don’t think the strategy of parasitizing and controlling the producing genotypes can be discounted.
If it didn’t work they would have died out thousands of years ago.
Liberals are like Same sexers. There are new ones born every day. The old ones die out. The newly born replace them.
There’s a spectrum of independent and dependent people. Workers and shirkers, makers and takers.
I think everybody figured this out in childhood.

You raise a good point.
But I don't think the reason it hasn't died out is related to whether or not it actually works.
It doesn't work.
The reason it hasn't died out is that it seems to be a kind of secular religion. Leftism argues for "fairness" and that gives its adherents a warm and fuzzy feeling (i.e., meaning to their lives). But, whenever they actually get a chance to prove their point by installing a collectivist government, they quickly learn that it won't work (Cuba, USSR, Venezuela, etc., etc., etc.).
Right now the Leftists are looking at China and saying, "See, it works in China."
What they have failed to recognize is that China has survived because it has stolen intellectual property and product designs from the U.S. On top of that, China has adopted a quasi-capitalist form of communism and that has given it a thin veneer of success.
The quasi-capitalist form of communism of which you speak is presently being destroyed by Chairman Xi and the CCP. All vestiges of that very successful but blatantly anti communist system is being systematically eliminated.
The China of which you speak, no longer is. All vestiges of free enterprise and individual entrepreneurial effort is being erased. The presence and industrial excellence of foreign companies is being or rather has been eliminated. The foreigners, their money and their brains are or very soon will be gone.
Xi is forcing a return to a purer socialist, communist, state. The new communism is based on the corporate industrial communes that provide all the citizens need for life. The corporations are all CCP controlled but offer a degree of independence from pure government control.
The transition is now, in full force tearing asunder what was. All that was isn’t and will not be. The Transition in China is a tragedy so great it is immeasurable.
Point well taken!

We might be developing some confusion here. I don’t mean leftism works. I mean the individual strategy that liberal\weak people use works.
Specifically that weak/nonproductive people use to influence people who are productive and strong to help them, to give them a share of the kill. Today that equivalent would be to provide them with welfare benefits etc.
I imagine Stone Age people used ideas like pleasing the mountain gods while today they use ideas like equity or social justice. Both eras had different people, different strategies but the same goal. That the numbers on welfare,tax paid benefits like food stamps, free heath care etc are swelling sort of proves it works.
Interestingly Ayn Rand’s Novels get into this sort of philosophical questions and she wrote them nearly a century ago.
As to stone-aged people, Will Durant, in his "Story of Civilization," posited that the collectivist demand for sharing (not necessarily trying to please the gods) was evident as soon as men invented fire (and probably before).
In other words, weak, non-productive people wanted more than their earned portion and pushed collectivism (sharing equally) as a means to get it.
Survival of the fittest. When a society values the productivity of the individual and allows the individual to keep the fruits of labor, the society is strong and vibrant. When society compels producers to give a significant portion of the producer’s bounty to the non-producers, non-producers multiply, producer output declines, and the society dies.
But that doesn't stop the Bernie Sanders types from sitting around the campfire pushing their message (while BTW the real producers are out hunting for big game).
What's bizarre is socialism and communism are failed intellectual properties stolen by the CCP from city-slicker Europeans. There is nothing Chinese about the CCP. It's 100% foolish white man culture, imported and forced onto Chinese that never saw anything like it in their 5,000 years.
Don't try to stop a resource competitor, though, when they are making a mistake. The American Deep State should support competitor political instability, and promote communism the world over, which they basically do.

Transcript 0:01 · hello hello and welcome to this edition 0:03 · of a quick pipe now sometimes in science 0:07 · in in scientific research uh metaphors 0:10 · can be useful to making sense of things 0:13 · a good a good metaphor is worth a lot it 0:16 · makes you think in a different way and 0:18 · it allows you to make sense of something 0:20 · in a way that you wouldn't otherwise be 0:21 · able to allow something to click and I 0:24 · think I've come across one and this is 0:25 · in a very interesting article called the 0:27 · hunter-gatherer fitness model of human 0:30 · of political ideology by Windsor swam 0:33 · which has been published in aporia mag 0:36 · um online magazine and essentially to 0:39 · sum it up the idea is something like · HunterGatherer Fitness Model 0:41 · this 0:42 · conservatives are the winners in the 0:46 · hunter-gatherer world uh who are at the 0:48 · top of the hierarchy who get all the 0:50 · resources and therefore want to conserve 0:52 · what they have and are therefore in 0:53 · favor of the hierarchy which which they 0:56 · being skillful and Brilliant 0:57 · hunter-gatherers are able to ascend and 1:00 · Liberals are the losers in the 1:02 · hunter-gatherer hierarchy they are the 1:04 · people lower down the hunter-gatherer 1:06 · hierarchy who therefore want to find 1:08 · ways of extracting resources from the 1:11 · winners in the hunter-gatherer hierarchy 1:13 · and because uh we have two sets of uh 1:17 · moral foundations we humans on the one 1:19 · hand we want to get to the top of the 1:20 · hierarchy but on the other hand we have 1:23 · to be able to to maintain a functioning 1:25 · group in order to survive we have to 1:27 · maintain this balance as it were 1:29 · essentially between hierarchy and power 1:32 · and order on the one hand as individuals 1:36 · um and as and and our functioning social 1:39 · group which has elements of equality and 1:41 · whatever which keeps keeps people that 1:43 · are the losers really on board on the 1:46 · other and that's basically pretty much 1:48 · as far as I can see what he's saying and 1:49 · I think it's quite a good point so he 1:51 · notes that we are for most of our 1:53 · history we have been hunter-gatherers 1:55 · and so this is maintained within our 1:57 · minds and in order to send our bodies 1:59 · and in order to survive as 2:00 · hunter-gatherers you have to be 2:01 · physically strong you have to have a 2:03 · strong immune system and you have to be 2:05 · resistant to parasites 2:07 · um if you are uh strong and and you are 2:11 · um 2:12 · and whatever I knew I was listening to 2:14 · parasites and you have good you have 2:15 · good health and so forth you were going 2:17 · to be a good hunter-gatherer and you 2:18 · were going to ascend to the top of the 2:20 · hierarchy and females are going to be 2:23 · sexually attracted to you and if you are 2:25 · a female and you evidence good genetic 2:27 · Health by being a good immune system 2:30 · resistance Paradise By by being good 2:32 · looking and pretty and so forth then you 2:34 · will get a husband who is high up the 2:36 · hierarchy and you will have more 2:37 · resources and you'll be more likely to 2:39 · pass on your genes and you'll attain 2:41 · these resources get out of the top of 2:42 · the hierarchy and you'll want to you'll 2:44 · want to conserve these resources for you 2:46 · and the interests of you and your family 2:49 · and your descendants uh on the other 2:51 · hand if you are physically weak if you 2:54 · are physically ill then you will not get 2:57 · top of the hierarchy you will not get 2:58 · the same access to females you will not 3:00 · get the same access to resources you 3:02 · will be envious of those that do get top 3:04 · of the hierarchy and therefore you will 3:06 · push in favor of ways of ensuring uh 3:09 · that you obtain more resources is from 3:13 · those that have them I you will push in 3:15 · favor of equality that's the fundamental 3:17 · difference and it could be argued that 3:19 · that's the difference between liberalism 3:20 · and conservatism conservatism is broadly 3:22 · concerned with uh hierarchy with 3:25 · structure with order and so forth 3:27 · whereas liberalism is like it's a 3:29 · simplification but it is broadly 3:31 · concerned with equality with social 3:33 · equality and with harm avoidance with 3:35 · with everybody having the same and 3:37 · feeling equal and so forth now then if 3:39 · you look at the various studies of 3:41 · differences between conservatives and 3:43 · liberals 3:44 · this point is backed up and this is all 3:46 · cited in the in the article conservative 3:48 · men on average have stronger upper 3:51 · bodies than liberal men Republican 3:53 · voters regard themselves as more 3:54 · masculine and a more conserved with 3:56 · masculinity than our Democrat voters 3:58 · female conservative voters are more 4:02 · feminine and basically better looking 4:03 · than female Democrat voters I of course 4:07 · what that implies is that is that those 4:09 · females have better immune systems and 4:11 · are more resistant to parasites because 4:13 · of course it's that that being good 4:15 · looking is of being able to maintain a 4:17 · symmetrical phenotype and a pretty 4:18 · phenotype is a reflection of having good 4:20 · genetic health and being listened to 4:22 · parasites being able to fight them off 4:23 · and having enough biological resources 4:25 · left over to be able to maintain a 4:27 · beautiful phenotype 4:29 · um uh equally a subjective fact that 4:31 · conservative people on average are are 4:33 · both are objectively more physically 4:36 · attractive uh than uh than our than our 4:38 · than our liberals if you administer 4:40 · testosterone I if you make a a Democrat 4:43 · voter for feel that he's stronger I feel 4:46 · that he's more powerful than he becomes 4:48 · more inclined to vote Republican more 4:51 · inclined towards towards conservatism 4:52 · vaccine hesitancy is higher among 4:55 · conservatives than liberals mainly 4:57 · because conservatives regard themselves 4:59 · as healthier and feel that they don't 5:00 · they don't need these kinds of things 5:02 · they don't need medicine they're healthy 5:03 · they see themselves as healthier whereas 5:05 · liberals see themselves rightly as as 5:07 · physically weaker and more ill and 5:09 · therefore require these things and on 5:11 · average 5:12 · um people who are conservative tend to 5:14 · earn more they literally have more 5:16 · resources whereas people that are 5:17 · liberal tend to earn less they have less 5:19 · resources and so obviously you can see 5:21 · why they would meditate having less 5:23 · resources would cause them to debilitate 5:24 · in favor or abilitate in favor of them 5:26 · being uh Pro equality now he goes into · The Divide 5:30 · other things other areas which I'm not 5:32 · quite sure are correct but he argues 5:34 · that basically 5:35 · it's the The Divide I suppose you could 5:38 · say between do you try to get power 5:40 · overtly or do you try to do so in a 5:43 · subtle way to do so overtly is a is a is 5:47 · a conservative thing to strive for power 5:49 · if you're weak you can't strive for 5:51 · power openly because you won't you'll 5:53 · probably be beaten up and killed uh or 5:55 · or you'll you'll be too concerned about 5:57 · your own weakness to be able to dare to 5:59 · do that and so you virtue signal and so 6:01 · forth and so you basically become more 6:03 · concerned with the subtleties of 6:05 · socializing in order to get power 6:07 · um as opposed to just fighting to to get 6:10 · power oh there's a number of things here 6:11 · I'm not sure he's right about but one 6:13 · point that he does make is that what 6:14 · liberals will tend to do is attack 6:16 · hierarchies because if you if you attack 6:19 · a hierarchy then you are attacking the 6:21 · system which which the conservative is 6:23 · good at and which the conservative has 6:25 · ascended you you are creating chaos 6:29 · um and in that chaos you might be able 6:31 · you will undermine the hierarchy and 6:33 · therefore bring about a system where 6:35 · there is is greater equality and he 6:37 · gives an example of this as Modern Art 6:39 · what odd Modern Art does is it basically 6:41 · attacks traditional hierarchies and 6:43 · traditional Notions of beauty and it 6:45 · brings about basically high levels of 6:47 · disgust and unpleasantness and and so 6:49 · forth which are conservative values 6:51 · often conservatives being higher in 6:53 · health are higher in disgust because 6:55 · it's adaptive to be high in disgust 6:58 · um and you undermine all this and 6:59 · therefore in the chaos you can kind of 7:01 · Mark out a niche and and extract 7:03 · resources similarly people who are 7:05 · liberal will be more in favor of welfare 7:07 · state because they basically can't look 7:09 · after themselves they will be more in 7:11 · favor of a a state having the Monopoly 7:14 · on violence because they won't be able 7:16 · to stand up for themselves so they want 7:18 · other people to stand up for them so 7:19 · basically what he's reducing it down to 7:21 · although there's other nuances to this 7:22 · is that the liberalism is the Cry of the 7:24 · week of the people that are further down 7:26 · the social hierarchy and hunter-gatherer 7:28 · terms whereas the conservative the 7:30 · conservatism is the The Deep a deep 7:32 · voice the deep throated song of the of 7:34 · the straw who are hotter and the healthy 7:37 · uh who are who are higher up the 7:39 · hierarchy in these terms and he also 7:41 · notes that increasingly now with AI and 7:42 · so forth you can with 72 accuracy you 7:46 · can tell just from what someone looks 7:48 · like whether they're likely to be 7:49 · conservative or liberal and this makes 7:51 · sense because conservatism is gonna 7:53 · overall be a reflection essentially of 7:55 · of genetic Health which will be 7:58 · reflected in a symmetrical phase in 7:59 · strength and all these little markers a 8:02 · low mutational load essentially 8:04 · um whereas uh liberalism will be a 8:06 · reflection of poor genetic health will 8:07 · be reflected in in high mutational load 8:10 · now there's obviously there's little 8:11 · more to it because you can see how in a 8:13 · highly liberal Society such that we are 8:15 · in you could get a person who um is 8:18 · highly intelligent highly healthy 8:21 · um and and uh whatever strong immune 8:23 · system whatever that who work who 8:25 · reasons that it's a jolly good idea to 8:27 · kind of pretend to be liberal uh in 8:29 · order to attain status so you're going 8:31 · to get people like that but similarly 8:33 · you're going to get people that are just 8:34 · even in a liberal Society the 8:36 · conservatism is just built into them 8:38 · because they are healthy and because 8:40 · they are strong and whatever and they 8:41 · just won't be able to bring themselves 8:43 · to be liberal so it it uh it leaves us 8:46 · asking quite a few questions I think but 8:48 · anyway I think it was a jolly 8:49 · interesting article uh and I will leave 8:51 · a link to it and it's worth a read and I 8:54 · will see you all soon and goodbye 8:56 · hello the Jolly heretic is an online 8:59 · Public House which meets on Mondays and 9:01 · Thursdays at 7 pm UK time 2PM New York 9:03 · in which we
