That was not entirely these Jews' fault, if one wants to be fair. Historically, assimilation often required conversion to Christianity, no? It's only in the 1700s and 1800s when this began changing, IIRC.

Either way, though, the population will still end up being duller after this emigration relative to before. If dull and smart people have the same TFR but smart people emigrate at much higher rates, then the smart share of the total population will still decline over time. This process will...

Very possibly, Yes. That said, though, even right now, the EU is a confederation, no? It's obviously less than a federation but there are still elements of different states uniting and coordinating various aspects of their policies, such as on foreign policy, on trade, et cetera, no? In this...

The EU works better, no? It would make the brain drain go faster but it would probably ultimately not prevent it. Whether the brain drain occurs over 100 years or over 30 years ultimately makes no difference to the countries being affected since the ultimate amount of human capital lost is the...

This is why such technologies should be both subsidized and incentivized for the lower classes as well. How to incentivize lower classes to utilize such technologies if they are already subsidized for them, well, you and other people can go and put forward some ideas in regards to this.

FWIW, I'm not disputing that there is a real problem in regards to this: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/24/health/covid-health-worker-immigration.html I'm just saying that it's a tragedy of the commons-style situation because everyone here needs to do their part, and if one party doesn't...

India is essentially a Hindu version of the EU and/or Austria-Hungary. It's pretty cool when you think about it. I just wish that India was much richer. Voluntary eugenics for the win! In any case, you shouldn't be stingy about taking the Third World's smartest people since if you won't, then...

Voluntary eugenics. They would still be able to donate their sperm/eggs to other Third Worlders, especially if the West would be willing to subsidize this. For that matter, the West would also be capable of donating its own sperm/eggs to the Third World. I hear that white/European sperm is a hot...

FWIW, refugees/asylees and illegal immigrants are both not particularly educated: https://www.cato.org/blog/family-diversity-immigrants-are-far-better-educated-us-born-americans So, it does make sense to see whether there are safe third countries that can resettle large numbers of them. But we...

It all depends on what kind of refugees we're talking about here. As in, just how well are they capable of successfully assimilating and integrating. If they're comparable to the Vietnamese and Persians who are already here in southern California, then I'd have no problem with them living next...

You sure? https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/10/4/most-americans-support-resettling-afghans-in-us-poll https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2021/9/30/22696708/afghan-refugees-poll-resettlement-siv Well, we've got one case so far...

Well, just how many of the Afghans whom we imported are pederasts?

Afghans are too culturally incompatible? Even the pro-US ones?

I thought that you were Russian or at least of Russian descent!

Where do you currently live?

Yeah, in Kazakhstan, AFAIK, you're generally pretty safe if you stay out of politics. And I like what the country has made for itself over the 30+ years of its independence.

Due to Canada being too Woke?

I prefer the US better. :) But I would enjoy visiting. :)

No; seriously. Kazakhs are very moderate: https://www.unz.com/akarlin/map-death-for-apostasy/

I'd be cool living in Kazakhstan! ;)
