Excessive english sentimentalism, not realizing that peoples that evolved a morality that didn't make it necessary to hold land(AS) but evolved in a coastal city where administrating a navy is much cheaper(less cost to holding land) && having the slavic peoples pay the high cost of holding land for you made you guys excessively cosmopolitan, compare Leftist elite(Anglo-Saxons/Some-Hebrew)
Hebrews evolved as a diaspora peoples, so they evolved a morality that allowed them to justify "Open-Borders/Open-Arms" immigration policies.
* Morality is an excuse to justify the propagation of your genes.
* You evolve the morality that suits your polity
Right-Wing people = Landed peoples {Germans, Southerners, Sikhs, Broad Indo-Iranian Diaspora(Persians/Iranians etc}
Left-Wing elite = Anglo+(Some) Jewish,
The Asymmetry of Risk FAVORS US (It is always less risk * damage to favor less risk than it is to favor excessive risk taking, too much risk is irreversible, but too little isn't)
Very importantly the way you guys evolved makes it so that your moral sentiments will literally not allow you to get the right answer as it's mal-adjusted.
So it times where the lifeline of the empire requires judicious decision making trust the side that knows that the cost of holding land is very high and sometimes WE CANNOT allow more people in, due to the effects of assimilating a polity to high trust anglo/germanic ethics, and various other things.
God, this is so annoying, it's like PG who won't read let all of us evolve and enjoy the massive surplus of benefits that evolving in medieval europe had, they hung the bottom .5%-1% of their population for centuries and got massive eugenic bonus for that, so know they are happily virtue signal being against the death penalty, but they will NOT allow us to get there! (By speeding up the death penalty).
Naive social policies but excellence in the organization of production is the signature anglo-saxon trait, and people mistake English brilliance for the fact that they evolved to be successful at commercial life, it has very little to do with their intelligence, it's like a woodpecker thinking it's excellent at pecking wood because he's so smart, no Mr.Woodpecker your clout is from your massive eugenic evolutionary advantage and not from your brilliance, and it's a very severe mistake to take their advice thinking that you personally could succeed if only you listened to them.
Heuristic evidence to prove my point:
Warren Buffet(English/Leftist/Coastal evolution) : Charlie Munger(German/Right-Wing/Landed/Wiser)
Compare{Paul Graham, Jessica Livingston, Sam Altman} to {Marc Andreesan}
but because in a market economy status is decided by "Extremes not means" that status continuum of those at top will always be decided by the people who evolved for industry, Anglo-Saxon whites and NW Europeans have higher variance in their genetic distribution than asiatics, and AS are the most successful polity, so their elite will always float to the top, outperform everyone except our dutch friends(Thiel/Musk) and then because of their highly specific evolutionary history rally people at discount(high status provides discount in rallying fans, see PG's follower count) because of said commercial success and then doom the republic with poor social policies BUT NOT being bad at organizing industry.
Anglo-Capitalism tends to fail because of said elucidated mechanism, this is why Karl Marx said capitalism always collapses, not because capitalism itself, but because he observed Anglo-Capitalism when he did all his work in the "British-Museum" or so the story goes. Capitalism doesn't collapse, but English Capitalism does! It's just hard to tell they're the ones causing the collapse because in complex systems its difficult to perceive the consequences of actions cause of the time-lag.
Because their social policies outweigh the advantage that their "black-swan farming" manages to benefit.
The issue is both Sam/PG are undereducated. I definitely love them, but they need to stop advocating policies/politics.
tl;dr naive politics of new england is destroying our country, but it's hard to tell because a) their success b) they're lovely people c) time lag between consequences d)they somewhat make up their bad social policies w/ excellence in industry
