That moron should be exiled and put to pasture!
What a bunch of morons!!
Here's an article from a social scientist with a genetics background everyone should read:
When the Strong Outbreed the Weak
He shows that not only group selection outdoes individual selection, but that the size of the group matters a lot (a pretty solid argument for diversity). By the time you are down to only two parties competing in a winner takes all system, you will be raising and breeding sociopaths.
WMM: Yes, indeed, in humans, because of our ability to treat diseases, we have transformed Darwinian evolution, or survival of the fittest genetically, to social evolution, which is survival of the fittest group within a society. Nations evolve as a group, those nations that cooperate internally are among the greatest competitors internationally, such as the USA. Ironically those countries that were based on the grand ideas of community sharing, i.e. communism, ultimately failed or are failing, because of cheating, i.e. within group social selection, which is the bane of group selection. In that system, some individuals cheat, end up preying on that society, and become very rich at the expense of the commoner. In such a society the idea of shared community good soon breaks down. Similarly companies with the greatest internal dynamics, associated with cooperation and collaboration, are the survivors. Survival of the strongest individuals in a society (company or nation) leads to predatory behavior, loss of a community goal, and ultimately failure. |
