  • The liberal conception of power nears a magical understanding of reality. It’s understood as if there was the sacred artifact that one can steal and keep for themselves, becoming Dictator of the country. It’s so deeply ingrained that even top US leadership acted like Maduro would just drop the Stone of Power upon capture so they could give it to anyone they wanted to.




  • They’re pulling out the Kingdom of Israel stuff lmao

    Fun math time

    Since everyone has two genitors, going back one generation means multiplying the number of ancestors from the last generation by two, meaning for g generations we have 2^g ancestors. Going back 3000 years ago, when the Kingdom of Israel existed, generously assuming only three generations per century, we have at least 30 generations of ancestors. This amounts 2^30 ancestors, which is a bit more than a billion. In 1300 BC we estimate a total population on earth of 100 million people. So less than a tenth of your total ancestors. Which means, statistically, you certainly have absolutely everyone from these times as ancestors, even if population movement was very small, because one single cross-culture child carries almost all ancient ancestors from two part of the world.

    The tweet’s Greenland bs is less absurd, we sit at 2 millions ancestors for 400 million people in 1300 AD but that’s still a pretty high chance of having Dorset ancestry
