This is a very significant discussion
That people from different cultures are different, some showing more social virtues
Some cultures are nice and some not so nice
But what is also very significant now is that this kind of topic - 'HBD' - 'Human Bio-Diversity' - can be considered now 'racist' and 'right wing', to suggest some cultures are better
What if the examples were not far away tribes, but closer to home?
People are being arrested now, or careers being destroyed, for saying things publicly, about sub-groups present in their own societies ... 'These migrants are often not like us'
Yet people - including often the most 'anti-racist' in theory - seem to act on such forbidden-to-speak perceptions, speaking in euphemisms ... e.g., seeking a house in a 'nice neighbourhood', one with 'good schools'
The 'ethnic realism' sites delve much into concrete studies, which seem to show that even tho culture, upbringing, family, neighbourhood are important -
Yet it seems that much of behaviour is genetic-influenced ... cultures developed in certain ways because long-ago circumstances and practices 'weeded out' certain kinds of people, who did not have children
Studies show that people adopted as near-newborn babies, still show behaviour traits of their genetic forebears, much to the surprise of adoptive parents
North-western Europe - including south-western England, developed in certain ways, likely due to regional history ... much execution of malefactors in times past ... a great deal of outbreeding, and prohibition of cousin marriage ... aristocrats giving land tenancy to 'more intelligent, responsible' young couples, who prospered with surviving children ... which helped develop societies of wide social trust
In some of the world, however, the majority of people marry their cousins, because 'only the clan can be trusted' ... this seems to be often associated with corruption, lower 'IQ', lack of civic-mindedness, an 'ethics' where only the clan truly matters ... but there is fear to speak of this ... or of 'clan-based migrant crime gangs'
Typo in previous comment, should have been 'south-eastern England'
A truly gruesome account of colonialism and the most barbarous scumbags (it would appear) of all. The European genocidal invaders.
However, I believe there is a an even deeper, less understood role of what kind of entities lurk within.
Ask yourself this - why do we have a Human Rights Act. Why do humans need this. Why does our legal system need to protect us. From whom? From what exactly?
The humans, a physical manifestation, a being. What else is here? Who else is here?
Peace to the humans.

A short video about colonialism. Truly eye popping. Please watch.
I read somewhere once, and I think I might have even posted it here, that years ago human groups for no bigger than about a hundred people and so everyone knew who the psychopath was. Only a few people needed to be conned by the lying, cheating, toe rag for everyone to know who he was, and after that, he had to behave himself or he would get thrown out of the group.
But in modern society, though, psychopaths can move from group to group and start all over again wrecking people's lives.. They can also rise up in companies as modern capitalism seem to reward psychopathic behavior, like extreme greed and selfishness. And the clever, intelligent ones can use their ruthlessness to rise up in society sometimes becoming leaders of countries. These people are often pro war because they don't expect they will ever fight in one, but they think they can gain from it. There seems to be a lot of them in the Ukraine right now, sponsored by the psychopaths in the US. They are all after the money.
The hairs on my wooden leg start twitching everytime I see that Talmudic "6 million" symbol.
