German Greens falsified evidence
Those that do not like it, already know; those that do not know, approve it.

India
most rape stories on European women in India are of multiple assailants; Indian men (in large part due to worse nutrition) do not have height and strength advantage over Euro women than Euro men have.

Why would you feel it's hellishly dystopian, when it's a positively banal part of the international system and has been for longer than you've been alive? As long as you claim citizenship of Country X, you have reciprocal obligations with country X
You're missing that part that all states conspired to make everyone have citizenship and do not allow to exit citizenship unless person has another citizenship (or guaranteed to obtain it). Exiting citizenship often is difficult thing.
So it's not a choice

Ukraine to protect the Ukranians despite Ukraine facing far worse than Palestine.
Really? Less civilian Ukrainians killed by war in 2 years than Palestinians in few months (and that's not counting as a percentage of population). Also Ukrainian women are free to travel outside.
why high IQ black people do worse than high/mid IQ white people
Regression to mean: children of rich high IQ blacks regress to mean and thus end having lower IQs that children of rich high IQ whites. If you correlate this with individual's IQ instead of parents' IQ or SES, you get much smaller racial gap.
and higher average IQ should correlate with more pro-social,
Consider than men are more criminal than women even if they have equal or slightly higher IQs than women, Among dog breeds, Huskies are stupid but rarely kill people, Pitbulls are smarter but kill people on regular basis.
I've seen no theory for a separate "criminality gene" being fleshed out.
congratulations on anti-HBD people running successful campaign on obfuscation

"Identifying with a criminal culture",
It definitely exists and it's partly downstream of genetics.
orthogonal to IQ.
nobody suggesting it's orthogonal

look at the gay/lesbian community. Even if you crack reproduction, neither of these is capable of maintaining civilization, IMO.
Without a way to reproduce they cannot evolve towards goal of maintaining civilization, maybe cracking reproduction would make them to (and possibly introduce a schism)

So at this point, we have pretty clear data that when Europe was Christian (and America), there was almost 0 non-white immigration to Europe
from wikipedia: By the mid-16th century, there were approximately 10,000 Africans in Lisbon, around 10% of the city's population. probably the reason there isn't large amount of blacks in Portugal now because they they all assimiated, this might be part of reasons why the country transitioned from a superpower to "hey, actually portugal belongs to eastern europe" tier.

What if Ukraine winning wasn't the goal in the first place but killing most Russians? .... Russia is big. And they can rubberstamp Russian citizenship to anyone wishing to enter EU. Wouldn't work.

You answered neither of 2 my questions!
that year St Louis reported 200 murders in a city of 300,000 (of whom only 150k are black).
looks like you're showing number of murders for greater St. Louis (which is 3 million) with figure of population of St. Louis city.
why Nigeria reports more 10x homicide rate than Ghana, which it shares border with? Is 0.3 homicide rate per 100k for Senegal in 2015 close to truth?

a huge amount of Russians were accepted.
ahem. ahem. What means 'huge'? Ever since COVID times, EU does everything to let less Russians in, not more. And they mostly let those Russians the least likely to go to war (e.g. rich).

"Ottoman" isn't genetic, Turkic tribes assimilated tribes they conquered, so any genetic effect is minimal, Turks in Turkiye have somewhat little genetic ancestry besides what was already there before Turkic conquest and effect on the Europe is even less.

15,000 British ruled over 400,000,000 Indians. In 2003, 130,000 NATO forces ruled over 20,000,000 Afghans, a vastly more favorable ratio. And yet they lost, because they were too afraid to do the needful.
I don't think it explains it. 5 centuries ago Babur the conqueror captured Delhi using Afganistan as his base. India is probably easier to conquer.

Your argument doesn’t really make sense.
Really? Do you object to that part that MAOA & DRD4 genes associated with climinality too?
specific dysfunctions, likely enabled by legal and social changes that were predominantly enacted by non-black politicians, entertainers and businessmen, that are not the natural destiny of their inhabitants per se.
I agree about this, but even if this this get fixed, we won't see B-W gap in USA disappear.
Why South Africa, Botswana and Nigeria officially report higher homicide rates (and by large margin) than less functional African countries? Low crime in African countries is suspect.

E.g. USA blacks and whites have same IQs after you "control" jointly for individual's income, education, marital status (and other factors which are downstream of IQs)
or, jokingly, controlling for lattitidue, Texas and Alaska have same climate.
The latter sentence is very weak evidence for the former. What they do when they are in minority doesn't neccessarily tell what they would have done if they had majority. one data point: Asian Americans are horrendously underrespresented in ratsphere despite higher IQ; even more so underresented relative to their IQ.
