Preface: this is not white apologia, I am not white, I am a pure asiatic mongoloid barbarian. With that being said----

There seems to be a sentiment that is largely a holdover from the liberal beliefs about ‘bad apples’ in our gene pool or whatever. Some people seem to think that we could solve all our problems by not allowing these bad apples to have children. It seems pretty straightforward, right? Parents pass traits to their offspring, you get rid of the bad parents, and you won’t have the offspring having bad traits.

Well… aside from that being borderline eugenics, it’s also bullshit. Not completely bullshit, but pretty much bullshit.

AS FAR AS WE KNOW, BELIEFS ARE NOT HERITABLE. This means that if your parents were bloodthirsty fascists, you are not necessarily a bloodthirsty fascist. Heritable traits are generally much simpler (and by simpler I mean comparatively simpler— even things like eye color needs hundreds of genes, each thousands of bases long, to be coordinated) than behavioral traits. Which means, aside from a few very, very basic instincts OUR BELIEFS ARE LEARNED AND NOT INHERITED FROM OUR PARENTS. While parents can influence your beliefs heavily as an environmental factor they don’t just magically give you ideas when you’re born.

So there. It feels good to want to murder bad people but just know that until we fundamentally restructure society, killing them will just be like trying to fill up a river by draining it with a sponge.

    Also, if you honestly think murdering all white people is an option, please log off the internet for a while and go touch grass. You sometimes see this take on Lemmygrad and it’s not a healthy one.

      Good advice. Sometimes the sentiment can be read in the same way as ‘death to Amerikkka’: a call to abolish racial categories.

        That’s how I always saw it, as a call to abolish “whiteness” not the “white genocide” CHUDs are always screaming about. I didn’t realise anyone was saying it here in complete seriousness.
