Amelia poses a question. Can we hyperstition manic pixie dream radicals into existence? This is almost the same question as: can we psyop the existing supply of art hos into adopting right-wing opinions? Can they be seduced to the dark side, which is to say to the forces of the good, the true, and the beautiful? At the individual level it’s a known phenomenon that women will tend to adjust their beliefs to match those of their boyfriends and husbands; can we do this at the collective level, as well? Can we hold frame, letting them know that gay race communism might offer them a ‘career’ but at the price of romantic loneliness ... that they have to choose between being ‘good’, and being loved? Women love nothing more than male attention. By projecting the political imperative of remigration and reconquista onto a whimsical avatar, perhaps a signal can be transmitted into the collective mind ... ‘Men want this ... you can be this ... doesn’t it look like more fun than whatever you’re doing right now?’

The purest and most powerful form of modern mythology, however, is not to be found in comic books, fantasy novels, or conspiracy theories, but in the humble and unserious meme, which has grown to encompass, supersede, and transcend the other forms with its ubiquity.

Before Trump was elected, Pepe had been deified via his connection with the primordial Egyptian god of cosmogonic chaos, Kek...

This fueled the half-serious, half-ironic belief in meme magic on the forum – the notion that memes could be used to prophecy, or perhaps even to change reality. Proliferation of a meme could establish a sort of resonance between the consciousness of human beings and the universal mind, leading to the manifestation of the meme in reality.

Kek was typically depicted in ancient Egypt as a man with a frog's head.

Dude is a bit swarthy for an Anglo-Saxon. Is she saying to breed with the immigrants to make those immigrants English?

HeadSet says

"Dude is a bit swarthy for an Anglo-Saxon."

Nonsense. It looks like you have a problem with men and women getting
married and having a family.

The whole point of the comic is that the male hero of it is a regular English guy.

I guess the Amelia meme has caught on.

"Regular" English guys are Nordic and rarely have black hair. And for the few "jets" that do, it is unlikely both kids would have black hair. The fact that both the man and his kids have black hair implies that the man is an immigrant.

The original British, Irish, etc., did have dark hair, brown or blue eyes and light skin. Before various conquests from the Vikings, Franks, and Anglo Saxons etc. I'm not sure if it's true but I've read that Sean Connery would be an example. At least in recent history.

Back 10,000 years you reach cheddar man, with dark skin, dark curly hair and blue eyes... I think that's the farthest back there is data for.

Be very cautious of anthropology when it veers into politically charged areas. For example, the Cheddar Man reconstruction with near African skin color. Here is his direct descendant, still living in the Cheddar area:


Same eyes, similar nose and face shape - incredible actually. And yet the skin tone is presented as dark brown, despite this man living in post- ice age conditions in high northern latitudes. Unless one is eating seal livers with high vitamins A and D (as the Inuits do), dark skin would be maladaptive.

Anthropologists base the skin estimate on the absence of one modern European lighting allele. However, East Asians are light from other genes, as were Neanderthals (who lived Europe over many Ice Ages, since 600kya). I suspect they missed a gene that kept pre-modern European groups, including Cro-magnons, light.

Correct, and it wasn't just the UK. When Euros switched to cereals is when it's estimated the skin lightened up. Last I read ~7K years ago.

goofus says

Also correct and so you might be right.

Yeah, that picture is super dark lol! I'm a genetics guy and don't particularly care about the politics of it or anthropologists. That reconstruction sure does look like someone was trying to make a point though!

From AI, take it as you will:

Dark skin was common in Europe for most of its inhabited history, with lighter skin becoming dominant only relatively recently.

Pale skin did not become widespread until about 3,000 years ago, during the Iron Age, according to multiple studies analyzing ancient DNA from over 300 individuals.

The first signs of lighter skin appeared around 14,000 years ago in parts of Northern Europe, such as Sweden and France, but remained rare.

(I wouldn't consider France Northern Europe)

By the Bronze Age (7,000 to 3,000 years ago), the proportion of dark-skinned individuals had dropped to about half.

Genetic shifts were driven by migration: Neolithic farmers from Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) brought genes for lighter skin (like SLC24A5) around 8,000 years ago, and later migrations (e.g., Yamnaya herders) further spread these traits.

Even as late as 1,700 years ago, during the Roman Empire, dark skin was still common in many parts of Europe.

This transition was not a simple or linear process, but a complex patchwork of migration, gene flow, and local adaptation, challenging the old idea that lighter skin evolved gradually due to low UV exposure alone.

"Even as late as 1,700 years ago, during the Roman Empire, dark skin was still common in many parts of Europe." <- if that is true I'm sure it's documented in writing and no need to do genotyping.

So I asked it about that and there isn't any apparently. It kept mentioning people like Ethiopians migrating lol.. All that seems to really exist are some comment about Euro's being white and even more about red hair.

"Netflix" Natural History and Antrhopology have been around for a long time weaponized, both for 'superiority' and 'inferiority'. You'll only get what some devious bloodline wants you to see. The Smithsonian destroys a lot more history and natural history than it preserves and reveals, and its charter is to pursue various historical fairy tales consistent with current allowed views of culture, history and religion.

DNA by itself is an electromagnetic antenna and a memory battery (condenser) (epigenetics), which means the signal for life is received from some other dimension and there is constant back and forth communications from the DNA antenna arrays in various forms of life. That dimension is much more playful than standard evolution allows. The why and wherefore of life is still a huge mystery that public 'science' has tried to fool us about.

DNA significance is wildly distorted to make us believe current public 'science' is the end all and be all as a limiting guard rail, whereas the hidden sciences as usual remain exclusive to smaller groups.

My dad was Irish but had black hair and blue eyes, a combination which is common among the Irish for some reason.

Strangely, he had blonde hair as a boy, then it turned black.

Grok does say that it's rather unusual for the native English to have black hair:

The percentage of native Anglo-Saxon English people (meaning individuals of long-established English ancestry, primarily descending from pre-modern populations in England, excluding recent immigrants and their descendants) who have true black hair is quite low.

Reliable modern estimates, based on surveys, genetic studies (like UK Biobank data on white British participants), and population observations, place it at around 5-8% for naturally black hair among the broader white British or indigenous English population.

Maga_Chaos_Monkey says

There is the vitamin D effect, where people with lighter skin survive better in northern Europe.

But it's also true everywhere in the world that lighter skin is selected for by men, because everywhere in the world, most men find fairer women more attractive. The very word "fair" in English means both "light-skinned" and "attractive".

It's true in Japan, and even in Africa. The high-status men get their pick of women, and they almost always choose light-skinned women.

And high-status men leave more surviving children than others in every generation.

Patrick says

Yes, commonly known as "Black Irish." In pre-Roman days, folks from Iberia migrated to Ireland and Wales and added to the genetics. Some have said Black Irish may be from Jewish influence.

That is not uncommon among White people. Seems to me that so many White children are born blonde with blue eyes and the hair darkens as they get older and many have the eyes change to hazel or brown. You have heard the term "baby blue," right?

Maga_Chaos_Monkey says

Odd, because if today one goes to northern England, Scottland and Ireland, one will see a high abundance of red or auburn hair. I presumed these folks were dependents of the original Brittons and had less Germanic blood.

Same, white blonde hair as a kid and my eyes were bluer vs. blue green now. My hair turned brown in high school.

Right, I meant before they showed up. I have no idea what the Picts looked like. I think they were something all to their own.

Plus, they save on toilet paper.

Yes, now that we’ve stopped the censorship “misinformation” complex that was developing under Biden. Nina Jancowicz, Biden’s proposed “disinformation czar” for a “Disinformation Governance Board,” went to England after Trump won. No coincidence - it’s a friendly environment for censors and autocrats.

We can speak openly about the negative effects of immigration. We can even do the unthinkable in England - expel illegal immigrants.

HeadSet says

When my son was born he had deep blue eyes. Supposedly this is caused by a lack of melanin in the iris, which gradually increases upon exposure to sunlight. By the time he was a year old his eyes had turned brown.

More appropriately, why doesn't Ulster belong to the Irish, instead of being the British satrapy of Northern Ireland?

Good point.

Paul McCartney:

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain you are tremendous
And nobody knows like me
But really what are you doin'
In the land across the sea?

Tell me how would you like it
If on your way to work
You were stopped by Irish soldiers?
Would you lie down, do nothing?
Would you give in, or go berserk?

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain and all the people
Say that all people must be free
Meanwhile back in Ireland
There's a man who looks like me
And he dreams of God and country
And he's feeling really bad
And he's sitting in a prison
Should he lie down, do nothing?
Should he give in or go mad?

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

The song was written by Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney in response to the Bloody Sunday massacre on 30 January 1972, when British soldiers shot 13 civil rights protesters in Derry, Northern Ireland. Released in February 1972 as the debut single by Wings, it was banned by the BBC and other UK broadcasters due to its political content. Despite the ban, it reached number 16 on the UK Singles Chart and number one in the Republic of Ireland.

If one were to take a vote with the folks in Northern Ireland, whose families have been living in Northern Ireland for centuries, would they choose to join the rest of Ireland or stay with the UK?

There are rich colonial Protestant families who own a lot of land in the north, but they are outnumbered by the native Irish even in the north.

A truly democratic vote would result in the north joining the Republic.

Northern Ireland was majority Protestant / CoE until the late 1960's. When it looked like the Catholic minority was set to become the majority, TPTB panicked, and started passing bullshit laws to limit the political power of Catholics (who were presumed to support reintegration with the rest of Ireland). This led to the Troubles of the 1960's - 1990's (financed largely by the USSR).

Now that Ireland is still part of the globohomo EU while Northern Ireland has Brexited, this has actually led TPTB in Northern Ireland to consider reintegration.
