When did you grow up and do you remember the details of how it happened?
 

To a degree, I grew up on Steve's comment board. Fifteen years ago or so, I was your typical libertarian-ish conservative. I already knew that genetics played a much larger role in racial differences than what society believed, but Steve and many commentators here helped me understand the depth of how genetics and race (family, really) influenced so much in individual lives, culture and societal outcomes.

However, where I truly "grew up" was understanding the importance of tribe. Jews showed me the way. Jews openly ask the question, "Is it good for the Jews?" What a simple and correct question. Yet, I had never thought that way about my people, at least not consciously.

In addition, I learned that Jews defend Jewish interests with little regard to the truth. The goal is protecting their tribe, not debating the facts. The facts, the argument serve a larger purpose: Protect the tribe. It's all a game.

Even on this board, many (all?) Jewish commentators will never give an inch on the importance of Jews in turning the West into a multi-everything, anti-white society. They correctly argue that many gentile whites helped lead this movement as a way to downplay the crucial role of Jewish money, media and organization.

It's fascinating to watch. You see how it's almost second nature.

Look, I'm not trying to trash on Jews. They're playing the same game as everyone else. They just happen to play it the best. They (well, certainly, many influential Jews) also happen to have as one of their goals the utter ruin of my people.

Anyway, I was child before, thinking that ideas (free markets, democracy, etc.) came before tribe. They don't. They never will. Tribe/race/ethnicity is family - as Steve often points out. Ensuring the well-being of your family is more important discussing abstract ideas.

When it comes to race and my tribe, I now think like a parent.

Why wouldn’t investment opinion be infected with who/whom?

 

It is. But with investing, you have to put your money where your mouth is, and that deters a lot of silliness. Also, sooner or later, the numbers prove who was right. Objective results are more important than subjective opinion.
