War Before Civilization: the Myth of the Peaceful Savage (
Oxford University Press, 1996) is a book by
Lawrence H. Keeley, a
professor of
archaeology at the
University of Illinois at Chicago who specialized in
prehistoric Europe. The book deals with warfare conducted throughout human history by societies with little
technology. In the book, Keeley aims to stop the apparent trend in seeing modern civilization as bad, by setting out to prove that
prehistoric societies were often violent and engaged in frequent warfare that was highly destructive to the cultures involved
Bullshit. The problem with pre-industrial societies is that warfare had relatively low casualty rates. Why? Because it's really harder to kill someone with a sword or spear than it is with a gun.
The first truly modern war (white people, of course) was the Thirty Year's War, which had 8 million dead.
In fact, if you go by a list of Major death events by size, guess what. Most of them involve either white or Asian people. In fact, you have to go fairly down far the list to find Africans or Indigenous Americans.

Pure breeding is a distortion of selective breeding. Pure breeding happens when dogs are bred for winning dog shows, rather than what they were originally bred for, such as hunting, herding sheep, guarding people, and so on.
Oh, quite the contrary, selective breeding really isn't a substitute for evolution. Let's talk Turkey. No literally, let's talk about Turkeys.
This is a wild Turkey
This is a domesticated turkey after generations of selective breeding.
Now, it's been bred to produce that lucious, lucious white meat, (with a little help from massive feed and hormones). Of course, it couldn't survive in the wild, and they aren't meant to have long lives. In fact, you know every year when we have that stupid ceremony where the President pardons a Turkey? The Turkeys are sent to petting zoos where they usually die within a year because they were never designed to live that long.
Again, there's a reason why we don't have generations of geniuses... Why Mozart was a great composer while his father was mediocre and his sons were failures. Genetics are fine, but you also have environment.
Eugenics, the set of beliefs and practices which aims at improving the
genetic quality of the
human population,
[2][3] played a significant role in the history and culture of the
United States from the late 19th century into the mid-20th century.
[4] The cause became increasingly promoted by intellectuals of the
Progressive Era.

And then people realized the horrible places it leads to and were horrified.
We can decide to make sterilization a requirement for welfare eligibility. This will not be compulsory sterilization because those who are congenially unemployable can choose to stay off of welfare.
Wow, you sound more like a Nazi every day, man.
My white privilege consists of the fact that when people notice that I am walking behind them they do not cross the street. When I walk into a store sales clerks do not watch me suspiciously. My white privilege has been earned by the fact that people have learned that white men are usually safe to be around.
Bullshit. Your white privilege has been that anyone who ever made an important decision regarding your life was a fellow white person.
