I love that you started out with an overview of his background! Unfortunately, we didn't hear that he's an anthropologist now, or what position he has, why we should be listening to him. Has he published books, etc. I know you say it's because of the algorithm but it's really difficult to imagine that people don't want to know who the heck they're listening to and why. It makes it hard for me to listen to the episodes where I'm not already familiar with the person. For instance, I had no problem whatsoever getting instantly engaged with the Carl Benjamin episode, but I noticed in the comments that some people who didn't know who he was were puzzled and put off. I then imagined what if I didn't know who he was, and didn't know about the end-of-liberalism kerfluffle with Lindsay, and realized I would have probably switched it off.
Andrew, could you interview someone who is an expert in EQ, emotional intelligence and/or SQ, spiritual intelligence? This would offer viewers an alternative viewpoint to the one expressed here, as they explore the human condition beyond genetics.
So basically the same ppl that called the fuzz on their neighbors for having a BBQ during the coof, would have snitched on Ann Franks neighbors for hiding her in the attic.
Just so. Peterson describes it as everyone perceives themselves as a freedom fighter in Nazi Germany, the truth is you would be a camp guard. Going with the herd is simpler, mitigates risk, and is rewarding.
People saying, oh how could you discriminate against Transgenders....but at the same time they would never hire a Trans woman as a nanny for their babies.
As a non-woke gay man I’d never hire one. I know my history and the truth and the “trans” today are crossdressers in reality or gays and lesbians led astray by neo-marxism.
Dutton is pure comedy gold and a total ninja. He's the first person I ever heard talk about the studies showing the correlation between virtue signalling and dark triad disorders.
@@EmilyRose2021 Some of it makes sense though , obviously not the extremes. I’ve always wondered if there was a coloration between some of what he covered
@@EmilyRose2021 "Who funds these studies" - a good question about any research, but not a good faith argument disputing the methodology or findings of the research itself.
@@EmilyRose2021 Google search. "Virtuous victimhood Dark Triad" and you will see a Google Scholar link where you can find several studies on the subject.
I'm the only person in my direct family who isn't woke, so much that my brother was named after Ché Guevara, nearly everything he said rings true to me.
Yeah I wonder about that...I'm the only person in my family that is on the right, more or less, and I wonder why that is...I think it's because I've gone through more hardships and been forced to face certain ugly realities that they have been able to shelter themselves from, like for instance I have been attacked several times by black people while they haven't.
@@titanomachy2217 this also rings true to me. They've all lived very sheltered lives, I've been around the world and even lived in a communist sh&$#ole country. I'm the middle child of 3 also, not sure if that changes anything.
The issue is that it's a range so all you can say is the "average" IQ of group X is Y and it's partially environment, with transgerderism the whole "sex is a spectrum" is obvious bull.
First of all I love the Jews , however David Duke gets slammed as a KKK member while Joe Biden’s mentor Sen Byrd is hailed a Hero. Andrew has never listened to Duke in his entire life then makes assumptions on low information . . The older YT creators were a lot more researched before they opened their flappers .
Subscribed. Loved you. Thanks for giving me hours of backplay to watch. You are hilarious and witty and intelligent and I enjoyed watching our Andrew and yourgood self bantering away. I laughed so hard my cat ran away 🤣🤣🤣
@@Jannette-mw7fg hey, my experience is Janette is kinda right. I can comment on things I don't know, but _not authoritatively_ . A humble comment, if you will. I once had much more certainty about many of my Leftist political ideas. They made sense _within_ the Leftist framework of my logic and reasoning at that time. I became curious about opposite views, which I held to be wrong or repugnant. I'm glad I broke out of this frame and I'm embarrassed it took me so long to take a peek. Instead of having total certainty in the reverse, I think I am more keen the accept and embrace uncertainty.
That Andrew is prepared to interview Ed really tells us the UK is moving culturally to the right. During the hysteria of 2016, this would be unimaginable.
No, Elon Musk buying Twitter is the difference. People haven't really changed at all, the UK is culturally conservative. But on social media they haven't been allowed to comment truthfully for years. Do you really think the whole "Trans" thing would have run so out of control had it not been allowed free rein to force everybody to sing from the same hymn sheet or be silenced?
There are currently people screaming for Liz Truss to be thrown out of the Conservatives (nothing else could improve her popularity) for being interviewed by Carl Benjamin (Well according to hope not hate who briefed Jess Phillips) Tomlinson actually interviewed. Freedom of thought and speech is still very much at risk. There will be a raft of 'hate speech' laws on the way under Labour to stop you criticizing trans, Islam, MPs and policy. You will not be able to criticize policy that leads to your own demise, and you will have voted for it.
Yet the same people who understand this applies to the animal kingdom so how convince themselves we aren't part of it and these things don't apply to humans
Thats mainly cause of huge bottlenecks in the human population in history. Like our species had had huge numbers of people killed in wars and natural disasters. And at one point we were possibly as low as 5000 people.
@@UmbraBreeI’m realizing a deep point on this exact thread while watching this… everyone in 2024 says it’s “gross” or whatever for 40 y/o guys to date 20 y/o girls, right? Well, hear me out… Competition between tribes/populations has been going on forever. Society wants its men to be willing to fight for the group, and females select for that willingness. But some of these fighting age men will die. So, women should care more about the willingness to fight within a man than his age (would rather have an old warrior than a same-aged coward as a husband). Ergo, it’s perfectly logical for older men and younger women to form couples.
I've seen a few interviews with Dutton now and I really like this guy! One of the few kinds of poshies I like! He just doesn't give a damn how he comes across, says things with absolute certainty and conviction, probably enjoys offending people.....love it!
ruclips.net/video/Pe22Woac4w0/видео.html Brilliant interview in its own right, but skip to 34mins to see Dutton's extra-dry humour in full force - The man is hilarious!
Edward Dutton asymmetrical features meaning woke is total eugenics straight out of the Nazi handbook . i would say Liz truss is the mutant with less ability to run us than a lettuce and Boris the clown or toad off toad hall was one off those ..
"Predict" is kind of a silly word for it. If you had access to someones social media records, search history and articles they read, you'd be able to make an extremely educated guess if you even had to guess at all.
I couldn’t quite figure out why _a not insignificant percentage of people_ suddenly began to believe they were various birds or other animals, flowers, trees, etc.
Not sure either, but I expect it is a combination of at least two factors. 1: Being told from a very early age that we can be absolutely anything in life if we want it enough. There's nothing wrong with raising our expectations, but perhaps we have gone too far down this rabbit hole and our expectations have become unmoored from reality? Perhaps we need to re-remember there are limits to what we can do and be in life? As Ben Shapiro says, I am never going to become an NBA basketball player and there comes a point where I have to accept this reality, and my failure to achieve this isn't because of some racist/sexist/homophobic conspiracy to keep me on the outside. 2: Living too much of life in virtual online environments and not enough in physical reality. Mary Harrington is big on this. She thinks that so many of us have an online image or persona that we curate and cultivate. This is especially true of zoomers and young millenials. Somehow they have come to think that the virtual and the physical are equally real and interchangeable, and that my online personae are somehow transferrable to everyday life.
I get the vibe we've always had peeps who felt like the opposite gender, or race, or disability, or animal, flower, etc. Only now, they're not shunned for it, they're celebrated and their skeptics are shunned. Its like they've finally got the green light to let their freak flag fly! In New York City, prior to 1980, cis-male cross dressers were routinely arrested as public nuisances. But if they had a note from a shrink explaining transsexuality, they'd walk free. In the flyover states, like 1965-71, hippies also garnered public nuisance arrests. The reasoning was that violating community norms to the extent of causing alarm, were a breach of the peace. The pressure to conform was strong. The change came when the courts ruled that the 1st amendment "freedom of the press" implied a "freedom of expression" too.
It's number 2 for sure. During the pandemic this was amplified as the only socialising a lot of young people did was purely online. Online you are your avatar and they began to identify with it on a way they had never had the opportunity to before. When many of them re-entered the real world they were demanding that IRL people treated them the way their online friends had and were reinforced by their online "clan". This includes many "trans" people. Not all but many
@@souxcasa very interesting about demanding real world people treat them as online friends or NPCs (non-player characters) would do. This is fascinating. Makes sense.
I really like Dutton and I’m really glad you got him to speak slowly. He does speak too fast .He is openly aware that he is on the spectrum . He has very few boundaries from what I’ve seen which is refreshing .
He proved his point less than 5 minutes into the talk. You really said the UK is harmonious? I'm in America and that's still a totally crazy statement to make. If you believe in multiculturalism you're simply not conservative.
I am a woman, and unusually logical for a woman. All my life I have been in trouble for saying things that are factually correct but unacceptable to my audience. I, like ED, find it bizarre not to interact with individuals because of a characteristic over which they have no control. I have no problem with disagreeing with people as long as I can see why they have formed a particular opinion and that it is not tokenism to class signal their tribe. I do have the same emotional reactions as many women but I keep much of them private I loathe the be kind brigade and performative niceness which I consider to be untruthful and patronising. it is so refreshing to hear someone speak without embarrassment or aggression about published research. I have thoroughly enjoyed this interview.
Such rare individuals, who don't play the "my tribe right or wrong," games. To me, this is a planet of the apes, mainly populated by tribal apes, with thin veneer of civility, rudimentary language and sometimes even math skills. With rare Homo Sapiens thrown in here and there.
this is something ive been thinking for a while. i essentially grew up on tumblr during the woke revolutions during the creation of a lot of woke ideologies that are dominant today. and i remember "learning" them from my peers online (and in schools too), and i remember agreeing with some thing but disagreeing with others, and seeing the militantism, the lack of critical thinking, the black and white thinking etc. and i remember having the thought "these women who believe they are so opposite to the hyper-religious women they hate... are just the same as them". ive had the thought that many of them act the way nazis would have acted in nazi germany, fervantly going along with what their group believes is right. im glad he brought up that point because i have absolutely noticed it.
I truly noticed the similarities and parallels to Nazism in 2020 and it rang even truer when lockdowns were in the recent past. It was like peeking into a window of the past that was running the same film as the window showing the future and I’ve been stuck in the twilight zone ever since.
It’s a proven thing for dictators to give weak people power over the people who have created a higher standard of development and therefore a higher standard in society. If you change the rules by giving the weak and stupid power over those who stand far above them , they go on a extreme power trip . Mao and Stalin and Hitler all of them did the same . Even giving children the power to torture and kill … exactly what is happening with the “ race and equality “….. nonsense. Look at Fany Willis or Latitia James…. Highest power and no knowledge of the law…..
These ideologies were not created recently but simply recently introduced to the modern west; These ideologies have been presented / pushed into multiple countries for the last 200+ years. Think of them as a tool / part of a process of overtaking a country. What you saw was the adoption / implementation of the seeds being planted.
Genetic denialism is a problem, don't get me wrong, I am not saying that everything is purely genetically determined, but we know that genes and environments are each about half of what contributes to one's personalities.
It would be really interesting to do a genetic survey. Everyone in my family and surrounding community that are super woke have all kinds of health issues, untreated diabetes, TBIs, etc. I chalked it up to wanting big daddy government cover all their medical expenses, so a self-interest vote, but thinking about it, if it has to do with brain function and processing capabilities, then a TBI or untreated diabetes could certainly produce processing issues and various types of conditions contributing to brain rot, including just getting some crappy genes.
This might explain why some of the most intelligent people in England were supportive of Stalin, and why people with doctorates; lawyers, academics, scientists etc. were proportionately over represented in the Nazi party. In fact the SS recruited heavily from law graduates.
Sorry for the late reply. I think Hitler, and his cronies where more pragmatic. They went after the groups that would join their fold. Groups that has issues with Jews. It has been my experience that they Jews like a fight, a generalization of sorts about Jews, but one I have measured, first hand. It might be the example of David happening, and their respect for him. Jews in Germany, where highly prominent in German society, and academic positions, one of Hitlers challengers was a lawyer, a Jew named "Hans Litten". Despite having German Royal connections, under torture, Hans had his skull crushed in a vice, payback for challenging Hitler. What you may be looking at is something quite odd scientifically, and not so simple as described by "Mr. Dutton", and what he would have you believe. Mr. Dutton is talking about science, and not the arts, so I have neglected to call him a Doctor in this case. Most people make the presumption that they would not be involved in group think, or group talk, ending in murder or violence, they are wrong. Given what Mr. Dutton has said, I would not exclude him from those that would argue, left wing madness. My question is, is he trying to disprove left wing madness, or prove it? He may be highly calculated.
@@johnjames5842 I have found, or find, with word meaning drift, that the terms and meanings of left and right wing, have morphed so much, they are almost redundant, like the current use of the word populist being used to mean popular, instead of its real meaning as defined in the oxford dictionary from 1951. It was even said that the bill of the rights of America, was once described as leftist, that and to paraphrase, "The bill of Rights... smacked of the most extreme left -wing-ism" to quote the Atlanta constitution. You could not imagine saying this today. Their has been such a reversal of language, it is hard to follow ever-ones miss use of words unless you have a series of older dictionaries, made of paper! I find it perplexing, watching people get tied up in their own words, and arguing for hours about the language they use, is tiresome when you have to ask what is their definition of the words they use, then check the actual historic meaning, because of the failures of the education system, and their lack of rigor concerning the words they use. The current political, ,academic and social systems are in complete anarchy because of it. Yes you are right about the Nazis, but I am watching the overlap of leftist eugenics into arenas that where once right wing per say. And it is in error, and does not serve anyone.
@@johnjames5842 Dear mister James the nazis where, and to cut and paste wiki Nazism (/ˈnɑːtsɪzəm, ˈnæt-/ NA(H)T-siz-əm; formally National Socialism (German: Nationalsozialismus, German: [natsi̯oˈnaːlzotsi̯aˌlɪsmʊs] ⓘ), is the far-right totalitarian socio-political ideology and practices associated with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in Germany.[1][2][3] During Hitler's rise to power in 1930s Europe, it was frequently referred to as Hitlerism (German: Hitlerfaschismus). The later related term "neo-Nazism" is applied to other far-right groups with similar ideas which formed after the Second World War when the Third Reich collapsed. Nazis where right wing! The left wing is, and to quote wiki Left-wing politics describes the range of political ideologies that support and seek to achieve social equality and egalitarianism, often in opposition to social hierarchy as a whole[1][2][3][4] or certain social hierarchies.[5] Left-wing politics typically involve a concern for those in society whom its adherents perceive as disadvantaged relative to others as well as a belief that there are unjustified inequalities that need to be reduced or abolished[1] through radical means that change the nature of the society they are implemented in.[5] According to emeritus professor of economics Barry Clark, supporters of left-wing politics "claim that human development flourishes when individuals engage in cooperative, mutually respectful relations that can thrive only when excessive differences in status, power, and wealth are eliminated."[6] Please note I never got past the first part of Mr. Duttons misuse of genetics. Why because it was so bad I spared myself from listening to rest of his I presume waffle. If the Nazis where full of left-wing people, why is it so common that they are described as right wing? The left is not left wing as they do nothing in the above copy and paste despite what they may say! Try not to listen to them, but watch what they do! Ergo they the “left” are not left wing. They are out and out right-wing neo-fascists, that have failed at capitalism.
Oh Andrew, please don't deny that you feel more comfortable around either Europeans and/or more specifically Jewish people? And for ethnic reasons. I am 95% Anglo/Celtic with 5% Hungarian Jewish (evidenced by family history not genetic results) and even with that small percentage I feel weirdly comfortable/at home with Jewish people. You could say it is subconscious/conscious, and it may well be, but I have felt like this since I was young and before I had knowledge of family history ( it was information lost due to remarriage after a death in WW1 ). We do not need to fight our biology, the world is big enough to all have a place for our own ethnic groups. This isn't to say there is not a place for large scale mixing if people want it. America serves this purpose. The problem we have today was created by elites importing different ethnicities artificially, and against peoples will, and, importantly, at an unprecedented scale. It is such a clash of cultures and ethnicities as to be untenable. People's rejection of this is not wrong headed at all, or some primal evil that needs to be controlled. It is reasonable and needs to be addressed. The people are not wrong, the vision of the world imposed on them is wrong. Their views do not imply hatred or inherently lead to the type of hatred personified by figures such as Hitler. That is a simplistic zero sum view weaponised by the left. Under all of this Europeans are very conscious that they are being marginalised in their own land. Why on earth should they stand by and let this be imposed on them for zero good reason. All of the arguments for either economic or asylum are erroneous and flawed. The economies of Africa are some of the fastest growing economies in the world, most asylum seekers come from the middle east, a region that is home to some of the wealthiest states on planet earth, UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia etc. Why are those nations not held accountable, or demands made on them to adapt their culture to take on more refugees? The logic that Rwanda is not safe for example, tells you the distorted measure that our regime uses to maintain the immigration regime they desire. If you follow this logic then almost nowhere in the world is safe and almost half of the planet needs to seek asylum in the west. If the flaw in this line of logic is not obvious then there is no hope for real solid solutions. All the time every other nation is allowed to stay relatively cohesive whilst we are subjected to, as good as, ethnicity eradicating levels of change. We have all seen through history the horrors that meet ethnic minorities who have no homeland. Regardless of how hard we try this will always be an inevitable feature of humanity. And so, we will not give up our homeland easily. I say this without malice or any hatred of other people. I genuinely love the diversity this planet has created. To add this does not mean that other ethnicities should not be in this land, it is just that enough is enough. Let's just absorb what has happened and take our foot off of the accelerator altogether, for a long time, if not for ever.
You are right. But as Dutton said the left which are mostly European are causing the marginization and discomfort. Those of us who are minorities are minding our own business and are being incorporated into the left's cause.
watched one of this guys YT channel episodes where he visited some run down seaside town, was amazing to hear him be so blunt asking questions of people living the benefits life, we are used to the BBC showing everyone as a poor victim of the evil Tories and he is asking why they aren't working. anxiety and depression one mother repeats, her daughter who is also on benefits and has children complains she has to use her own money so her kids can have their own rooms, what she couldn't comprehend was her own money was also benefits money and being housed, free healthcare and free money wasn't good enough, she thought she deserved separate bedrooms even though her mother hasn''t worked for years and probably never paid tax , she has never worked and never paid tax and no doubt the children will do exactly the same, have children on benefits with no one even allowed to ask why the father isn't supporting them because no doubt he will be living in a separate house also supported by the tax payer meanwhile cheap labour pours in and is put up in hotels that have to be of a certain standard or they will riot until they are given housing so they can work , usually the work will entail whizzing about on electric bikes delivering junk food to all those people on benefits when they don't have the energy to heat up their own oven pizza
I saw his interviews in Clacton. Yes it was interesting how those women thought they were entitled to tax payers money and were complaining they didn’t have enough. What have we come to. The uk is now an international welfare state for immigrants and people like those two.
It's not even as complex as that. You literally just described women. Women cannot comprehend what money is and how money works. This is as true for corporate administration women as it is for council flat women. Their economic model is whining to get resources (which they do get btw). For example, NHS nurses are demanding a pay rise (just because) and the SIXTY BILLION education budget is being claimed to be TOO LITTLE to run "good schools" (with no explanation btw). SIXTY BILLION. Let that sink in. The cheap labour thing doesn't exist as they aren't doing any labour.
@@MarieFrancesca79 I haven’t watched tv since 2015 I’m German by the way, the negative developments scruton describes in Britain from after the war till today are the same that are killing Germany at the moment only that these developments began here in the 70s and have accelerated drastically since Merkel whose only goal it seems was to cripple and weaken us.
This man was on a roll! Too bad the interviewer presumed we couldn’t keep up with the guest. He kept interrupting and slowing momentum. Enlightening for sure
Most important point - scientific evidence indicates democracies do not survive if they are multi-ethnic. The biggest indicator of ethnic conflict is ethnic diversity. Conclusion - diversity creates war & division, as one group will always seek dominance over the rest.
The issue I guess is where do we draw a line on the science we accept? We want to use science to expose the idiocy of transgenderism, but when it comes to lots of evidence about intelligence and genetics, people seem to step back from it.
I understand why it is contentious. If different groups have different average intelligence, it makes it easy to organise groups into a hierarchy that is based on intelligence, which could then potentially be used to argue for group superiority. This is why people don't like the idea. However, it is a fallicious belief for a couple of reasons. - Firstly, group differences in intelligence have significant overlap. It is possible to find people of any group at any level of intelligence. Group differences and individual differences can both exist. This is something that people seem to struggle to understand for some reason (i.e. group averages vs individual differences). - Secondly, intelligence isn't equivalent to human value, nor is it a significant predictor of moral worth. Even still, this is a topic that is difficult to discuss and also difficult to properly understand. The average person may struggle to understand the data and therefore draw false conclusions, leading to dangrous worldviews. It's obvious that this is already happening - for example when Mr Dutton is speaking about the people who were outraged in the comments of his video that he was speaking with a black intellectual or a transgender intellectual.
@@Fatb0ybadb0y Neither of those debunk group-superiority. Sure, there's a bell curve in each group, making pre-judgment about any individuals problematic, but when it comes to collectives we see that collective-average IQ correlates most strongly to all of the important social outcomes, like health/wealth/crime/brokenhomes/addiction/etc. Some groups have not demonstrated that they are capable of engaging in democracy, or even basic standards for modern civilization. Some/many individuals: yes. Collectively: no. We need to be openly discussing and debating these problematic realities. As it is we swallow whole the notion that disparities in social outcomes by race must be a result of hate/racism/etc., which is nonsense and is slowly destroying modern western society.
Well, for starters you have to ensure that your viewpoints matches what the science says. When you say that you want to use science to expose the ''idiocy of transgenderism'' it sounds as if you're looking to use science to confirm your already existing beliefs about transgender people. The science is very clear in it's observation that gender dysphoria is a very real and legitimate condition, and treatement for people who suffer from the condition is to transition. If you deny that, you are not following the science.
The reason you can't "use science" to debunk transgenderism is because there is legitimacy to trans identities. Gender dysphoria is a recognised medical condition. Forrest Valkai, Robert Sapolsky are two names off the top of my head who have done some accessible content. Sapolsky is like the Attenborough of neurology, fascinating man.
to anyone Nazi out there who is as big a rotten upper elitist snob as Dutton' who came not from aristocracy but a long line off less then symmetrical people .;
I've been studying psychologists for 65 years and my research has found 99.9% to be ****ing nuts. To have an idea is an act of creativity. To be an idea is an act of insanity.
@@souxcasa No. My mother was mentored by a famous psychologist of his time whilst she did her Masters in psychology. I was 7 at the time. Since then, I have worked for, met and learned from many.
Was kinda wierd why you drgged David Duke into the convo but then you mentioned you were jewish so it makes sense. He just lays out the fact of jewish overrepresentation. If you were an honest person, you wouldn't try to counter-signal him. Actually debunk his statements, if you got an issue with him.
@@watchingyoutube5093 There was that too. Was thinking of LAC when they brought that up. It's just so hypocritical that the host is very against ethno-centrism but when it comes to his own people, immediately shows his nepotism. Every single time as they say. They're all the same, it's unbelievable.
@@beastvicious8672 Because everyone is a hypocrite. There is no way any of this research is legitimate. This is just one big cope of correlation does not imply causation. When the host tired to bring up that fact he deflected. There is no reasonable way that in such a short period of time these "lesser people" could have taken over the world and brainwashed everyone. Especially if you consider that it's a majority of women that are now woke....... This is a social contagion that MIGHT have some genetic factors associated with it. In much more likely reality these are just normal traits that are exhibited by all humans and the conditions were right to bring them about.
Ever notice that when it's White/European people making up the majority, it's called Cronyism, Nepotism, The Ol' Boys Club or something similarly corrupt.... but when the jewish people are severely overrepresented in a field.... it's just a matter of superior intellect or cultural goals? Nothing to see here, folks, move along!
I'm so glad, Andrew, that you're exposing all extreme view points & not just succumbing to audience capture like so many channels do. The trailer has me side eyeing this guy, but I'm always interested to hear different people's opinions, no matter how much I might disagree. I'll definitely be watching. Thank you!
I was the same after the trailer and having never heard of this guy before. What are your thoughts about him now? He came across as perfectly normal to me.
I just listened to a psychologist that worked with schizophrenic patients from the early 70s to the 2000s in state hospitals prisons private hospitals and ERs. He said that schizophrenic are very anti religious. He would ask them what the voices said. And claims that he found 23 patterns. And one was anti religious. So I thought that it was interesting that you guys have contrary opinions.
LOL, I'm in the 50% of your audience who needed to repeat sections of this interview to fully process Edward's points. And I have a doctorate! Seriously, though, I loved this one. Very mind-stretching.
Thanks for pointing out that he speaks very fast. One just has to relax into his talk and then one can think later when one rewatches the interview. Very interesting. Thanks
As a teenager, I claimed to have read "Lord of The Rings" to fit in and seem intelligent... then in my 40's I read it. There were many books I could not read as a teenager, or did not enjoy reading and in my 30's and 40's I read them for the first time or re-read them. I still have not read "1984", but have read "A Brave New World". I think it might be time to read 1984.
A Pedant writes: Dr Dutton refers to people with mutations having 'asymmetrical brains'. But humans do have asymmetrical brains. The human brain is lateralised, ie each cerebral hemisphere is specialised to do different things. What is referred to as 'the dominant Hemisphere' contains the language centres (Broca's area for language production, and Vernicke's area for language comprehension). This is not always the left hemisphere, even in right-handed people. The non-dominant hemisphere (usually but not always the right hemisphere) seems to be more implicated in spatial processing.
The worst thing Edward could have told Andrew was exactly that increased height also increases the chance of a hearth attack. Then Rubs it in afterwards! Love his humor!
I find it funny when people from the UK call their nation " Christian"....when only 2% of the population identfy as such. Now we see the chickens coming home to roost, where it's considered discriminatory to fly a British flag...IN BRITAIN!!!
Brilliant interview it’s so refreshing to hear an academic speak so honestly I love the fact that he is so blunt , but also he made me laugh , I will definitely be watching Edward again
Happy to see you know Ground news. Also, I am very skeptical of the correlations and their interpretation by your guest. I don't like the oversimplification nor the hasty conclusions one might be tempted to draw. I appreciated your questions, Andrew.
I really enjoyed this interview! This is the first time I had heard of a genetics basis for politics. The theory of how we are building up mutations makes sense, but leads to a bleak outlook for future society. Lots of food for thought!
I’m a 5’ old California native. I’ve been an “outlier “ all my life. Conservative and religious. Love our 🇺🇸 constitution and raised 6 great kids who are smart, good and conservative politically. Love this. ❤
There’s a few of us Californians that haven’t lost our common sense. Although, moving away from SF did help me to become free from the Progressive brainwashing.
What a wonderful conversation! Edward certainly does talk fast. I was having to rewind more than I'd imagine just to make sure I didn't miss any salient points. There's an old book titled something like "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" wherein the author, who is not a scientist, goes through the psychology texts and shows how the characteristics demonstrated by the liberal/left individuals match up amazingly well with what a shrink would classify as mentally challenged. That said, I also thought it was curious to see how leftists terms meant as insults, intended to marginalize, demonize, and shut down conversation.... like "Incel"... are now being used on polite conversation. For the record, I hold that nobody is "involuntary" anything because they can always visit a professional. They might not want to do that, for a myriad of reasons, but it's still a choice that's open to them. So if they refuse, there's nothing 'involuntary' about their predicament. This is doubly curious when later Andrew states that only 8% of men ever passed their genes down to this day. Are we to presume that 92% of men were "incels" all through human history? Secondly, this concept of "white flight" is also a pejorative in its nature. I say that because it's always portrayed in a negative light, and always only when whites do it. Folks tend to forget that the "flight" of the whites is only in response to the "flight" of the non-whites that the whites are allegedly flying from. After all, where did those non-whites come from? What were they flying away from? Why aren't they being called all sorts of names, having their character attacked, because they engaged in flight first? I mention these things because it's important to note how easily these concepts can get into our minds and color our thinking. It's good to be fact-based, but we must always watch out for things that wrongly shape our perception because that can lead us astray.
Yes they're both speaking freely. That's nice...as we only grow through engaging thinking...saying...rethinking...then disregarding previous misconception...that's why we have to see free speech...its evolving...
I think it was to keep people watching. It worked on me. I have watched a lot of Dutton but have never seen such a question posed to him, so I was very curious. When it came to it I realised the pause was a misrepresentation. Not good really
Wish youtube had a variable speed option, i think this would be optimal at 90% original speed. When i put it on 75% it sounded like Ed was a few drinks in lol

Wow, Andrew. Regretting that I am so late to this video to be commenting a month after the release. So much to unpack in Edward’s stream of consciousness. Without more context I question the rationalisation of many of his statements and with others, I think I’d need a good diagram to follow his argument! So many ideas floated in this conversation are presented as either true or false. I believe a nuanced perspective is what is needed. I’d like Edward to provide a few statistics and some citations before I can accept the validity of many of his assertions. If we take his arguments as presented as fact then the road to eugenics is ahead of us. Do we really want to follow it?
@@martinandroid2538 I maintain that you cant sustain Libertarianism from a left-wing perspective, however its refreshing to know that a leftist exists who isn't trying to be offended all the time.
Mr. Dutton has a very Rapid Fire way of expressing himself. Took me 3 intermissions to just attempt to digest this clearly well Educated Gentleman. This was a difficult one for me. Be well all, from Canada
Hey I was born in Tulare and grew up in Kingsburg! I live on the east coast now but it's nice to hear from someone from my part of the country! Cheers!!
Thank you Andrew, for being brave enough to request that the interviewee slowed down his speech. The content was extremely interesting but I was about to switch off due to the inhospitable style of his delivery; it was like being shot at with a Sten gun! Despite having worked as a university lecturer, being left-handed means my brain is insufficiently symmetrical to cope with such an onslaught ;o)
I don’t read Sowell because just by listening to what he has to say one can already debunk many of his conclusions with very simple logic. But I do appreciate that he speaks his mind and goes against the grain, even if he sometimes says things that ultimately appear to be a form of soft virtue signaling.
So enjoyable to hear this... This talk also confirmed some of my internal speculations that i was unwilling to study and investigate... It also lends credence to some other theories that can not be studied, but are demonstrably a part of the current happenings... Most glad to have been able to hear this... Best regards!
I used to be a liberal until I started working in hospital... you see it all there. I'm definitely a conservative now. My sister said that the government was changing her benefits and she was rather angry saying they were neglecting her. I asked why she thought it was the governments job to look after her?...crickets
Maybe it's about aligning oneself with whatever is in power, as a way to survive. Weak people simply go with the flow on the belief that strategy helps them survive. Maybe they feel they don't have what it takes to survive in any other way, or to survive the consequences of not going with the flow.
This isn't just weak people but most people in general and especially females. Most people are sheep. This research is likely just correlation does not imply causation.
16:25 totally, I was from the former group, I was going with the left politics. But then I became 33 years old, something changed, like a switch. I started seeing the left values as repugnant and became extremely conservative, I also stopped caring for the environment, it is what it is, I'm not afraid of the climate anymore. Also, I want to settle down and have kids.
Liberal jews, they can't stand ethnocentric white folk. Notice him constantly trying to lump together far left "woke" types with normal conservative white folk with group oriented values and who are concerned about demographics, but tries to distance them from lukewarm liberal colorblind anti racist types like himself.
I call me and my children as "pioneer". Because moved to Colorado and met my children's father. We ended up in Nebraska. But my son settled in Colorado after 8 years in the Army stationed in Germany. His wife settling in Colorado with him. My daughter ended up in Texas for the last 15 years. One of her sons going to college in Colorado. I plan to end up in Colorado. Maybe my daughter will end up in Colorado. Back together as a family again. I guess we all just needed to spread out wings so we could find our way.

I love that you started out with an overview of his background! Unfortunately, we didn't hear that he's an anthropologist now, or what position he has, why we should be listening to him. Has he published books, etc. I know you say it's because of the algorithm but it's really difficult to imagine that people don't want to know who the heck they're listening to and why. It makes it hard for me to listen to the episodes where I'm not already familiar with the person.
For instance, I had no problem whatsoever getting instantly engaged with the Carl Benjamin episode, but I noticed in the comments that some people who didn't know who he was were puzzled and put off. I then imagined what if I didn't know who he was, and didn't know about the end-of-liberalism kerfluffle with Lindsay, and realized I would have probably switched it off.
A proper crackpot! Quite funny but ultimately he is a charlatan. 😂😉
Andrew, could you interview someone who is an expert in EQ, emotional intelligence and/or SQ, spiritual intelligence? This would offer viewers an alternative viewpoint to the one expressed here, as they explore the human condition beyond genetics.
This was honestly the most enjoyable Interview I've ever seen.

Its incredible easy to discriminate against transgenders. Not associating with people who reject the fundamental categories of reality is very natural
bingo
As a non-woke gay man I’d never hire one. I know my history and the truth and the “trans” today are crossdressers in reality or gays and lesbians led astray by neo-marxism.

Its completely correct. Church ladies were never about the church - it was just a medium.

Yeah I wonder about that...I'm the only person in my family that is on the right, more or less, and I wonder why that is...I think it's because I've gone through more hardships and been forced to face certain ugly realities that they have been able to shelter themselves from, like for instance I have been attacked several times by black people while they haven't.

First of all I love the Jews , however David Duke gets slammed as a KKK member while Joe Biden’s mentor Sen Byrd is hailed a Hero.

@@Jannette-mw7fg hey, my experience is Janette is kinda right. I can comment on things I don't know, but _not authoritatively_ . A humble comment, if you will.
I once had much more certainty about many of my Leftist political ideas. They made sense _within_ the Leftist framework of my logic and reasoning at that time. I became curious about opposite views, which I held to be wrong or repugnant. I'm glad I broke out of this frame and I'm embarrassed it took me so long to take a peek. Instead of having total certainty in the reverse, I think I am more keen the accept and embrace uncertainty.
And yet he did just that
That Andrew is prepared to interview Ed really tells us the UK is moving culturally to the right. During the hysteria of 2016, this would be unimaginable.
as a 25 year old, it really doesnt feel like that
My sentiments exactly. The world could not have handled Ed in 2017-2020, we are the past the peak of leftist insanity.
No, Elon Musk buying Twitter is the difference.
People haven't really changed at all, the UK is culturally conservative. But on social media they haven't been allowed to comment truthfully for years.
Do you really think the whole "Trans" thing would have run so out of control had it not been allowed free rein to force everybody to sing from the same hymn sheet or be silenced?
There are currently people screaming for Liz Truss to be thrown out of the Conservatives (nothing else could improve her popularity) for being interviewed by Carl Benjamin (Well according to hope not hate who briefed Jess Phillips) Tomlinson actually interviewed. Freedom of thought and speech is still very much at risk. There will be a raft of 'hate speech' laws on the way under Labour to stop you criticizing trans, Islam, MPs and policy. You will not be able to criticize policy that leads to your own demise, and you will have voted for it.
The pendulum is swinging the other way. It has been pushed so far left that it will overshoot the mark of balance, on it's backswing.
Asymmetry in wild mammals is an indicator of an inbreeding population, and is a bit of a red flag for biologists
thats so true, genetics play a big part in my job, can confirm this is a factor.
Yet the same people who understand this applies to the animal kingdom so how convince themselves we aren't part of it and these things don't apply to humans
Thats mainly cause of huge bottlenecks in the human population in history. Like our species had had huge numbers of people killed in wars and natural disasters. And at one point we were possibly as low as 5000 people.
@@UmbraBreeI’m realizing a deep point on this exact thread while watching this… everyone in 2024 says it’s “gross” or whatever for 40 y/o guys to date 20 y/o girls, right? Well, hear me out… Competition between tribes/populations has been going on forever. Society wants its men to be willing to fight for the group, and females select for that willingness. But some of these fighting age men will die. So, women should care more about the willingness to fight within a man than his age (would rather have an old warrior than a same-aged coward as a husband). Ergo, it’s perfectly logical for older men and younger women to form couples.
So then, how long before you fascists are talking about eugenics in order to "fix the woke folks"???...Not long i bet.
I've seen a few interviews with Dutton now and I really like this guy! One of the few kinds of poshies I like! He just doesn't give a damn how he comes across, says things with absolute certainty and conviction, probably enjoys offending people.....love it!
I don't think he intends to offend, he just likes facts and data. My son introduced me to his channel a while ago I think Dutton is great

Given that AI is now able to predict our political leanings by scanning our faces, I don’t see why people think his ideas are so crazy.
Meh, probably machine learning rather than true AI. It's a subtle but important distinction.
Doubted you at first 🧐 but here’s the link to the paper

"Predict" is kind of a silly word for it. If you had access to someones social media records, search history and articles they read, you'd be able to make an extremely educated guess if you even had to guess at all.
I couldn’t quite figure out why _a not insignificant percentage of people_ suddenly began to believe they were various birds or other animals, flowers, trees, etc.
Not sure either, but I expect it is a combination of at least two factors.
1: Being told from a very early age that we can be absolutely anything in life if we want it enough. There's nothing wrong with raising our expectations, but perhaps we have gone too far down this rabbit hole and our expectations have become unmoored from reality? Perhaps we need to re-remember there are limits to what we can do and be in life? As Ben Shapiro says, I am never going to become an NBA basketball player and there comes a point where I have to accept this reality, and my failure to achieve this isn't because of some racist/sexist/homophobic conspiracy to keep me on the outside.
2: Living too much of life in virtual online environments and not enough in physical reality. Mary Harrington is big on this. She thinks that so many of us have an online image or persona that we curate and cultivate. This is especially true of zoomers and young millenials. Somehow they have come to think that the virtual and the physical are equally real and interchangeable, and that my online personae are somehow transferrable to everyday life.
@@baltasarnoreno5973 one of the greatest replies ever received. Superb insights-thank you!
I can see all of it being true.
I get the vibe we've always had peeps who felt like the opposite gender, or race, or disability, or animal, flower, etc. Only now, they're not shunned for it, they're celebrated and their skeptics are shunned. Its like they've finally got the green light to let their freak flag fly!
In New York City, prior to 1980, cis-male cross dressers were routinely arrested as public nuisances. But if they had a note from a shrink explaining transsexuality, they'd walk free.
In the flyover states, like 1965-71, hippies also garnered public nuisance arrests. The reasoning was that violating community norms to the extent of causing alarm, were a breach of the peace. The pressure to conform was strong.
The change came when the courts ruled that the 1st amendment "freedom of the press" implied a "freedom of expression" too.
It's number 2 for sure. During the pandemic this was amplified as the only socialising a lot of young people did was purely online. Online you are your avatar and they began to identify with it on a way they had never had the opportunity to before. When many of them re-entered the real world they were demanding that IRL people treated them the way their online friends had and were reinforced by their online "clan". This includes many "trans" people. Not all but many
@@souxcasa very interesting about demanding real world people treat them as online friends or NPCs (non-player characters) would do. This is fascinating. Makes sense.

He's jewish. They lie.
I am a woman, and unusually logical for a woman. All my life I have been in trouble for saying things that are factually correct but unacceptable to my audience. I, like ED, find it bizarre not to interact with individuals because of a characteristic over which they have no control. I have no problem with disagreeing with people as long as I can see why they have formed a particular opinion and that it is not tokenism to class signal their tribe. I do have the same emotional reactions as many women but I keep much of them private I loathe the be kind brigade and performative niceness which I consider to be untruthful and patronising.

this is something ive been thinking for a while. i essentially grew up on tumblr during the woke revolutions during the creation of a lot of woke ideologies that are dominant today. and i remember "learning" them from my peers online (and in schools too), and i remember agreeing with some thing but disagreeing with others, and seeing the militantism, the lack of critical thinking, the black and white thinking etc. and i remember having the thought "these women who believe they are so opposite to the hyper-religious women they hate... are just the same as them". ive had the thought that many of them act the way nazis would have acted in nazi germany, fervantly going along with what their group believes is right. im glad he brought up that point because i have absolutely noticed it.
I truly noticed the similarities and parallels to Nazism in 2020 and it rang even truer when lockdowns were in the recent past. It was like peeking into a window of the past that was running the same film as the window showing the future and I’ve been stuck in the twilight zone ever since.
It’s a proven thing for dictators to give weak people power over the people who have created a higher standard of development and therefore a higher standard in society. If you change the rules by giving the weak and stupid power over those who stand far above them , they go on a extreme power trip . Mao and Stalin and Hitler all of them did the same . Even giving children the power to torture and kill … exactly what is happening with the “ race and equality “….. nonsense. Look at Fany Willis or Latitia James…. Highest power and no knowledge of the law…..
This is exactly like the red guards and cultural revolution back in the 1960s in China.
These ideologies were not created recently but simply recently introduced to the modern west; These ideologies have been presented / pushed into multiple countries for the last 200+ years. Think of them as a tool / part of a process of overtaking a country.

It would be really interesting to do a genetic survey. Everyone in my family and surrounding community that are super woke have all kinds of health issues, untreated diabetes, TBIs, etc. I chalked it up to wanting big daddy government cover all their medical expenses, so a self-interest vote, but thinking about it, if it has to do with brain function and processing capabilities, then a TBI or untreated diabetes could certainly produce processing issues and various types of conditions contributing to brain rot, including just getting some crappy genes.
This might explain why some of the most intelligent people in England were supportive of Stalin, and why people with doctorates; lawyers, academics, scientists etc. were proportionately over represented in the Nazi party. In fact the SS recruited heavily from law graduates.
Sorry for the late reply.
I think Hitler, and his cronies where more pragmatic. They went after the groups that would join their fold. Groups that has issues with Jews.
It has been my experience that they Jews like a fight, a generalization of sorts about Jews, but one I have measured, first hand. It might be the example of David happening, and their respect for him.
Jews in Germany, where highly prominent in German society, and academic positions, one of Hitlers challengers was a lawyer, a Jew named "Hans Litten". Despite having German Royal connections, under torture, Hans had his skull crushed in a vice, payback for challenging Hitler.
What you may be looking at is something quite odd scientifically, and not so simple as described by "Mr. Dutton", and what he would have you believe. Mr. Dutton is talking about science, and not the arts, so I have neglected to call him a Doctor in this case. Most people make the presumption that they would not be involved in group think, or group talk, ending in murder or violence, they are wrong.
Given what Mr. Dutton has said, I would not exclude him from those that would argue, left wing madness.
My question is, is he trying to disprove left wing madness, or prove it?
He may be highly calculated.
Nazis and commies are both socialist authoritarian ideologies, therefore left wing (in the American sense)
@@johnjames5842 I have found, or find, with word meaning drift, that the terms and meanings of left and right wing, have morphed so much, they are almost redundant, like the current use of the word populist being used to mean popular, instead of its real meaning as defined in the oxford dictionary from 1951. It was even said that the bill of the rights of America, was once described as leftist, that and to paraphrase, "The bill of Rights... smacked of the most extreme left -wing-ism" to quote the Atlanta constitution. You could not imagine saying this today.
Their has been such a reversal of language, it is hard to follow ever-ones miss use of words unless you have a series of older dictionaries, made of paper!
I find it perplexing, watching people get tied up in their own words, and arguing for hours about the language they use, is tiresome when you have to ask what is their definition of the words they use, then check the actual historic meaning, because of the failures of the education system, and their lack of rigor concerning the words they use. The current political, ,academic and social systems are in complete anarchy because of it.
Yes you are right about the Nazis, but I am watching the overlap of leftist eugenics into arenas that where once right wing per say. And it is in error, and does not serve anyone.
Not only that but major news publications were praising the Nazis right up until shit went down

Dear mister James the nazis where, and to cut and paste wiki
Nazism (/ˈnɑːtsɪzəm, ˈnæt-/ NA(H)T-siz-əm; formally National Socialism (German: Nationalsozialismus, German: [natsi̯oˈnaːlzotsi̯aˌlɪsmʊs] ⓘ), is the far-right totalitarian socio-political ideology and practices associated with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in Germany.[1][2][3] During Hitler's rise to power in 1930s Europe, it was frequently referred to as Hitlerism (German: Hitlerfaschismus). The later related term "neo-Nazism" is applied to other far-right groups with similar ideas which formed after the Second World War when the Third Reich collapsed.
Nazis where right wing!
The left wing is, and to quote wiki
Left-wing politics describes the range of political ideologies that support and seek to achieve social equality and egalitarianism, often in opposition to social hierarchy as a whole[1][2][3][4] or certain social hierarchies.[5] Left-wing politics typically involve a concern for those in society whom its adherents perceive as disadvantaged relative to others as well as a belief that there are unjustified inequalities that need to be reduced or abolished[1] through radical means that change the nature of the society they are implemented in.[5] According to emeritus professor of economics Barry Clark, supporters of left-wing politics "claim that human development flourishes when individuals engage in cooperative, mutually respectful relations that can thrive only when excessive differences in status, power, and wealth are eliminated."[6]
Please note I never got past the first part of Mr. Duttons misuse of genetics. Why because it was so bad I spared myself from listening to rest of his I presume waffle. If the Nazis where full of left-wing people, why is it so common that they are described as right wing?
The left is not left wing as they do nothing in the above copy and paste despite what they may say! Try not to listen to them, but watch what they do!
Ergo they the “left” are not left wing. They are out and out right-wing neo-fascists, that have failed at capitalism.
Oh Andrew, please don't deny that you feel more comfortable around either Europeans and/or more specifically Jewish people? And for ethnic reasons. I am 95% Anglo/Celtic with 5% Hungarian Jewish (evidenced by family history not genetic results) and even with that small percentage I feel weirdly comfortable/at home with Jewish people. You could say it is subconscious/conscious, and it may well be, but I have felt like this since I was young and before I had knowledge of family history ( it was information lost due to remarriage after a death in WW1 ). We do not need to fight our biology, the world is big enough to all have a place for our own ethnic groups. This isn't to say there is not a place for large scale mixing if people want it. America serves this purpose. The problem we have today was created by elites importing different ethnicities artificially, and against peoples will, and, importantly, at an unprecedented scale. It is such a clash of cultures and ethnicities as to be untenable. People's rejection of this is not wrong headed at all, or some primal evil that needs to be controlled. It is reasonable and needs to be addressed. The people are not wrong, the vision of the world imposed on them is wrong. Their views do not imply hatred or inherently lead to the type of hatred personified by figures such as Hitler. That is a simplistic zero sum view weaponised by the left. Under all of this Europeans are very conscious that they are being marginalised in their own land. Why on earth should they stand by and let this be imposed on them for zero good reason. All of the arguments for either economic or asylum are erroneous and flawed. The economies of Africa are some of the fastest growing economies in the world, most asylum seekers come from the middle east, a region that is home to some of the wealthiest states on planet earth, UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia etc. Why are those nations not held accountable, or demands made on them to adapt their culture to take on more refugees? The logic that Rwanda is not safe for example, tells you the distorted measure that our regime uses to maintain the immigration regime they desire. If you follow this logic then almost nowhere in the world is safe and almost half of the planet needs to seek asylum in the west. If the flaw in this line of logic is not obvious then there is no hope for real solid solutions. All the time every other nation is allowed to stay relatively cohesive whilst we are subjected to, as good as, ethnicity eradicating levels of change. We have all seen through history the horrors that meet ethnic minorities who have no homeland. Regardless of how hard we try this will always be an inevitable feature of humanity. And so, we will not give up our homeland easily. I say this without malice or any hatred of other people. I genuinely love the diversity this planet has created. To add this does not mean that other ethnicities should not be in this land, it is just that enough is enough. Let's just absorb what has happened and take our foot off of the accelerator altogether, for a long time, if not for ever.
You are right. But as Dutton said the left which are mostly European are causing the marginization and discomfort. Those of us who are minorities are minding our own business and are being incorporated into the left's cause.

watched one of this guys YT channel episodes where he visited some run down seaside town, was amazing to hear him be so blunt asking questions of people living the benefits life, we are used to the BBC showing everyone as a poor victim of the evil Tories and he is asking why they aren't working. anxiety and depression one mother repeats, her daughter who is also on benefits and has children complains she has to use her own money so her kids can have their own rooms, what she couldn't comprehend was her own money was also benefits money and being housed, free healthcare and free money wasn't good enough, she thought she deserved separate bedrooms even though her mother hasn''t worked for years and probably never paid tax , she has never worked and never paid tax and no doubt the children will do exactly the same, have children on benefits with no one even allowed to ask why the father isn't supporting them because no doubt he will be living in a separate house also supported by the tax payer meanwhile cheap labour pours in and is put up in hotels that have to be of a certain standard or they will riot until they are given housing so they can work , usually the work will entail whizzing about on electric bikes delivering junk food to all those people on benefits when they don't have the energy to heat up their own oven pizza
I saw his interviews in Clacton. Yes it was interesting how those women thought they were entitled to tax payers money and were complaining they didn’t have enough. What have we come to. The uk is now an international welfare state for immigrants and people like those two.
It's not even as complex as that. You literally just described women. Women cannot comprehend what money is and how money works. This is as true for corporate administration women as it is for council flat women. Their economic model is whining to get resources (which they do get btw). For example, NHS nurses are demanding a pay rise (just because) and the SIXTY BILLION education budget is being claimed to be TOO LITTLE to run "good schools" (with no explanation btw).
SIXTY BILLION. Let that sink in.
The cheap labour thing doesn't exist as they aren't doing any labour.

A bit of a genetic dead end too, if you consider how most of them abort their children or are homosexual.
Most people don't have abortions.
Most important point - scientific evidence indicates democracies do not survive if they are multi-ethnic. The biggest indicator of ethnic conflict is ethnic diversity. Conclusion - diversity creates war & division, as one group will always seek dominance over the rest.
This is the dumbest shit I've ever read. What "scientific evidence" do you have on democratic ethnostates big dog 😂
So in other words, your a race supremacist. Moron.
The issue I guess is where do we draw a line on the science we accept? We want to use science to expose the idiocy of transgenderism, but when it comes to lots of evidence about intelligence and genetics, people seem to step back from it.
I understand why it is contentious. If different groups have different average intelligence, it makes it easy to organise groups into a hierarchy that is based on intelligence, which could then potentially be used to argue for group superiority. This is why people don't like the idea. However, it is a fallicious belief for a couple of reasons.
- Firstly, group differences in intelligence have significant overlap. It is possible to find people of any group at any level of intelligence. Group differences and individual differences can both exist. This is something that people seem to struggle to understand for some reason (i.e. group averages vs individual differences).
- Secondly, intelligence isn't equivalent to human value, nor is it a significant predictor of moral worth.
Even still, this is a topic that is difficult to discuss and also difficult to properly understand. The average person may struggle to understand the data and therefore draw false conclusions, leading to dangrous worldviews. It's obvious that this is already happening - for example when Mr Dutton is speaking about the people who were outraged in the comments of his video that he was speaking with a black intellectual or a transgender intellectual.
Possibly because a next step is Eugenics?
@@Fatb0ybadb0y Neither of those debunk group-superiority. Sure, there's a bell curve in each group, making pre-judgment about any individuals problematic, but when it comes to collectives we see that collective-average IQ correlates most strongly to all of the important social outcomes, like health/wealth/crime/brokenhomes/addiction/etc. Some groups have not demonstrated that they are capable of engaging in democracy, or even basic standards for modern civilization. Some/many individuals: yes. Collectively: no. We need to be openly discussing and debating these problematic realities. As it is we swallow whole the notion that disparities in social outcomes by race must be a result of hate/racism/etc., which is nonsense and is slowly destroying modern western society.
Well, for starters you have to ensure that your viewpoints matches what the science says. When you say that you want to use science to expose the ''idiocy of transgenderism'' it sounds as if you're looking to use science to confirm your already existing beliefs about transgender people. The science is very clear in it's observation that gender dysphoria is a very real and legitimate condition, and treatement for people who suffer from the condition is to transition. If you deny that, you are not following the science.
The reason you can't "use science" to debunk transgenderism is because there is legitimacy to trans identities. Gender dysphoria is a recognised medical condition.
Forrest Valkai, Robert Sapolsky are two names off the top of my head who have done some accessible content. Sapolsky is like the Attenborough of neurology, fascinating man.

Was kinda wierd why you drgged David Duke into the convo but then you mentioned you were jewish so it makes sense. He just lays out the fact of jewish overrepresentation. If you were an honest person, you wouldn't try to counter-signal him. Actually debunk his statements, if you got an issue with him.
confusing that Dutton also perpetuates the myth of high jewish IQ. Leather Apron Club made a great video debunking the studies that claim this.
@@watchingyoutube5093 There was that too. Was thinking of LAC when they brought that up. It's just so hypocritical that the host is very against ethno-centrism but when it comes to his own people, immediately shows his nepotism. Every single time as they say. They're all the same, it's unbelievable.
@@beastvicious8672 Because everyone is a hypocrite. There is no way any of this research is legitimate. This is just one big cope of correlation does not imply causation. When the host tired to bring up that fact he deflected.
There is no reasonable way that in such a short period of time these "lesser people" could have taken over the world and brainwashed everyone. Especially if you consider that it's a majority of women that are now woke.......
This is a social contagion that MIGHT have some genetic factors associated with it.
In much more likely reality these are just normal traits that are exhibited by all humans and the conditions were right to bring them about.
Ever notice that when it's White/European people making up the majority, it's called Cronyism, Nepotism, The Ol' Boys Club or something similarly corrupt.... but when the jewish people are severely overrepresented in a field.... it's just a matter of superior intellect or cultural goals? Nothing to see here, folks, move along!

So I thought that it was interesting that you guys have contrary opinions.

I was afraid that people like him had disappeared
As a teenager, I claimed to have read "Lord of The Rings" to fit in and seem intelligent... then in my 40's I read it. There were many books I could not read as a teenager, or did not enjoy reading and in my 30's and 40's I read them for the first time or re-read them. I still have not read "1984", but have read "A Brave New World". I think it might be time to read 1984.

Will self is very left wing and he has a face only a mother could love, so I'm convinced.
That nasty old junkie looks like he’s sniffing a turd.
This was a great conversation I look forward to checking out more of Edward's content.
A Pedant writes: Dr Dutton refers to people with mutations having 'asymmetrical brains'. But humans do have asymmetrical brains. The human brain is lateralised, ie each cerebral hemisphere is specialised to do different things. What is referred to as 'the dominant Hemisphere' contains the language centres (Broca's area for language production, and Vernicke's area for language comprehension). This is not always the left hemisphere, even in right-handed people. The non-dominant hemisphere (usually but not always the right hemisphere) seems to be more implicated in spatial processing.
I said 'more asymmetrical.'
yes, he speaks fast but I'm doing it chunks to avoid the anxiety that builds after about 6-7 mins .. fascinating discussion
You clearly have mutations and some mental illness what what
The worst thing Edward could have told Andrew was exactly that increased height also increases the chance of a hearth attack. Then Rubs it in afterwards! Love his humor!
I find it funny when people from the UK call their nation " Christian"....when only 2% of the population identfy as such. Now we see the chickens coming home to roost, where it's considered discriminatory to fly a British flag...IN BRITAIN!!!

Happy to see you know Ground news. Also, I am very skeptical of the correlations and their interpretation by your guest. I don't like the oversimplification nor the hasty conclusions one might be tempted to draw. I appreciated your questions, Andrew.
I really enjoyed this interview! This is the first time I had heard of a genetics basis for politics. The theory of how we are building up mutations makes sense, but leads to a bleak outlook for future society. Lots of food for thought!
Oh? It makes me feel hopeful. The mutants will simply breed themselves out.

What a wonderful conversation! Edward certainly does talk fast. I was having to rewind more than I'd imagine just to make sure I didn't miss any salient points. There's an old book titled something like "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" wherein the author, who is not a scientist, goes through the psychology texts and shows how the characteristics demonstrated by the liberal/left individuals match up amazingly well with what a shrink would classify as mentally challenged.
That said, I also thought it was curious to see how leftists terms meant as insults, intended to marginalize, demonize, and shut down conversation.... like "Incel"... are now being used on polite conversation. For the record, I hold that nobody is "involuntary" anything because they can always visit a professional. They might not want to do that, for a myriad of reasons, but it's still a choice that's open to them. So if they refuse, there's nothing 'involuntary' about their predicament. This is doubly curious when later Andrew states that only 8% of men ever passed their genes down to this day. Are we to presume that 92% of men were "incels" all through human history?
Secondly, this concept of "white flight" is also a pejorative in its nature. I say that because it's always portrayed in a negative light, and always only when whites do it. Folks tend to forget that the "flight" of the whites is only in response to the "flight" of the non-whites that the whites are allegedly flying from. After all, where did those non-whites come from? What were they flying away from? Why aren't they being called all sorts of names, having their character attacked, because they engaged in flight first?
I mention these things because it's important to note how easily these concepts can get into our minds and color our thinking. It's good to be fact-based, but we must always watch out for things that wrongly shape our perception because that can lead us astray.
One thing I've observed with the woke crowd which has really stood out to me is their incredibly feminine personality traits, especially in men.
Yes spot on, that's something I've noticed increasingly.
This is why we need free speech. It exposes so much. Oh jeez.
Yes they're both speaking freely. That's nice...as we only grow through engaging thinking...saying...rethinking...then disregarding previous misconception...that's why we have to see free speech...its evolving...

A little naughty on the intro there Andrew, tut tut tut, Ed didn't hesitate at all on that question
I noticed that, too. Very wrong, imo, to imply as he did, and I'll know not to trust him going forward.
I think it was to keep people watching. It worked on me. I have watched a lot of Dutton but have never seen such a question posed to him, so I was very curious.

Wow, Andrew. Regretting that I am so late to this video to be commenting a month after the release. So much to unpack in Edward’s stream of consciousness. Without more context I question the rationalisation of many of his statements and with others, I think I’d need a good diagram to follow his argument! So many ideas floated in this conversation are presented as either true or false. I believe a nuanced perspective is what is needed. I’d like Edward to provide a few statistics and some citations before I can accept the validity of many of his assertions. If we take his arguments as presented as fact then the road to eugenics is ahead of us. Do we really want to follow it?
I was thinking that, some diagrams / stats as I found it hard to find a conclusion to points bought up as they seemed to meld into each other.
So many weirdly sensitive people in the comments. He is lovely.
He's thinking...that matters...
Intelligence is often intimidating. From a centre-left small l libertarian I found little to be incensed about (obviously I wasn't trying).
thats what im thinking 'Extrerme' is not how I'd describe this gent lol
@@martinandroid2538 I maintain that you cant sustain Libertarianism from a left-wing perspective, however its refreshing to know that a leftist exists who isn't trying to be offended all the time.
I loved this guy!!!😂👏🏼
David Goodhart has good data on the ‘diversity’ myth in London. It remains very tribal.
Mr. Dutton has a very Rapid Fire way of expressing himself. Took me 3 intermissions to just attempt to digest this clearly well Educated Gentleman.
This was a difficult one for me.
Be well all, from Canada
This was so much fun!
Oh my gosh! I'm definitely going to want to watch this a couple more times! Hello from Tulare, California.
Hey I was born in Tulare and grew up in Kingsburg! I live on the east coast now but it's nice to hear from someone from my part of the country! Cheers!!
Thank you Andrew, for being brave enough to request that the interviewee slowed down his speech. The content was extremely interesting but I was about to switch off due to the inhospitable style of his delivery; it was like being shot at with a Sten gun! Despite having worked as a university lecturer, being left-handed means my brain is insufficiently symmetrical to cope with such an onslaught ;o)
One of the most enjoyable conversations I've heard in a while 😄 Dutton is blimmin amazing
Interesting!
I think Kurt Vonnegut said that 'there are no atheists in foxholes' is not an argument against atheism, but against foxholes.
But to argue that there shouldn't be foxholes, is a facile eruption of the is-ought fallacy.
I hope your guest reads Thomas Sowell. He explains things (culture , geography, education etc) so clearly with statistics.
He's already argued against Sowell
I don’t read Sowell because just by listening to what he has to say one can already debunk many of his conclusions with very simple logic. But I do appreciate that he speaks his mind and goes against the grain, even if he sometimes says things that ultimately appear to be a form of soft virtue signaling.
Really enjoying your content lately. Thank you!
The conversation tone and Cadence was awesome gentlemen thank you. The content was incredible as well
He's a eugenicist.
So enjoyable to hear this... This talk also confirmed some of my internal speculations that i was unwilling to study and investigate... It also lends credence to some other theories that can not be studied, but are demonstrably a part of the current happenings... Most glad to have been able to hear this...
Best regards!
This guy spent over an hour brutally dunking on his own looks it's kind of endearing 😂
"I'm getting you back for your dismissive tone about Wall-e"

Where is the David Duke interview? Was it ever posted? I don't remember seeing it.
Great interview. Dutton is a fantastically thought provoking thinker. Thanks for doing and sharing this interview.
This video has helped me a ton with my shift towards conservatives and with my exploration of faith
I used to be a liberal until I started working in hospital... you see it all there. I'm definitely a conservative now. My sister said that the government was changing her benefits and she was rather angry saying they were neglecting her. I asked why she thought it was the governments job to look after her?...crickets
Maybe it's about aligning oneself with whatever is in power, as a way to survive. Weak people simply go with the flow on the belief that strategy helps them survive. Maybe they feel they don't have what it takes to survive in any other way, or to survive the consequences of not going with the flow.
This isn't just weak people but most people in general and especially females. Most people are sheep. This research is likely just correlation does not imply causation.
He's a eugenicist.
16:25 totally, I was from the former group, I was going with the left politics. But then I became 33 years old, something changed, like a switch. I started seeing the left values as repugnant and became extremely conservative, I also stopped caring for the environment, it is what it is, I'm not afraid of the climate anymore. Also, I want to settle down and have kids.
Great interview with a dapper looking Prof. Dutton.
Thank you for slowing down this extraordinary interesting man .... thougherly enjoyable ❤
Humanities majors who take a few science classes are scary. Happily they can’t act on it - unless they become a legislator.
Humanities = Fraud
38:20 *"I don't want to moralize."*
Then proceeds to muddy the water with moralizing.
Liberal jews, they can't stand ethnocentric white folk.
Notice him constantly trying to lump together far left "woke" types with normal conservative white folk with group oriented values and who are concerned about demographics, but tries to distance them from lukewarm liberal colorblind anti racist types like himself.
I call me and my children as "pioneer". Because moved to Colorado and met my children's father. We ended up in Nebraska. But my son settled in Colorado after 8 years in the Army stationed in Germany. His wife settling in Colorado with him. My daughter ended up in Texas for the last 15 years. One of her sons going to college in Colorado. I plan to end up in Colorado. Maybe my daughter will end up in Colorado. Back together as a family again. I guess we all just needed to spread out wings so we could find our way.
This was a display on how good-hearted posh types communicate.
