Fuck you too. And fuck you too.

Two and a half. I have been looking for the kill argument since day one. No one have been able to supply one yet. All I get every time is the same snorting arrogance based on not even bothering to read up on the increasing amount of relevant litterature. How can I possibly see the error of my ways, when you keep pretending that it's an obvious pile of drivel, that just ain't that obvious?

And Alister Hardy is Copernicus in this bitch.

What fucking racism??? We're all subjected to endemic cretinism!!! For forty thousand fucking years!!! It's right there on the god damned skulls!!! Aaand there goes the theory of evolution. That sure as hell is an umbrella hypothesis in equal measure. Well done. You just gave creationists their best weapon ever. AAH must be wrong 'cause it's umbrella hypothesis trying to explain way too many seemingly unrelated phenomena. Then a buck load of other umbrella hypotheses must be wrong too. The theory of the heliocentric near-universe. The theory of gravity. The theories of relativity. Of plate tectonics. Of evolution by natural selection. How much are you willing to sacrifice to finally shut that Welsh grandma up?

One more time for Prince Knut: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16828044/ Surfer's ear, a clear marker for lifetime aquatic activity, is prevalent in both erectus and Neanderthal fossils from 2mya and until the extinction of the Neanderthals 40kya. For that very long period of time, the hominin brain was on a constant increase, until it peaked around 1500cc in Neanderthals. Couple surfer's ear with these biochemical needs of the hominin brain, hominins couldn't have kept evolving a larger and larger brain without vital access to such nutrients, with saltwater seafood being by far the most parsimonous source. With sapiens moving in to dominate Eurasia, surfer's ear disappears from the fossils. And this happens alongside a now gradual loss of sapiens brain volume all the way to modern times. You do the math.

Piss on William of Ockham...

It doesn't matter what you believe. Science stays true whether we believe in it or not. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16828044/ I didn't back away, I'm gonna explain it again. The chain ends with EPA and DHA. Which is plentiful in salt water fauna seafood, and nowhere else. You brain needs DHA for its growth and upkeep. And you have lost 100cc of sapiens brain over the last 40 millenia, because the 40ky old mutated gene now synthesizing ALA and other terrestrial PUFAs towards EPA and DHA is inefficient. You haven't been able to upkeep your brain in full since that date. There is only one likely explanation for why you're in short supply of DHA today: Because you no longer eat the original diet that built your brain across at least two million years. Because you switched from seafood to big game. Terrestrial big game has the benefit of a much higher calory count, though short in the brain-specific building blocks. Your hunt for more calories is gradually costing you your brain. Ongoing. Do you now understand? Do you understand just how fucking important this discovery is? And do you understand how bleeding stupid it is to keep rejecting such a discovery just because it is an inconvenient truth for some fucking fraternity?

You're missing 100cc of brain because of it, sapiens. And today we're draining the world oceans of the brain food. Endemic cretinism will only increase, if we even survive the next century, what with climate change, fission war and whatnot. This is all based on the already known fossil archive along with comparative analysis straight out of Darwinian tradition and sound biochemical observation. Uhuh. Do you even know what this idea is actually suggesting? Do you even give a fuck? That's nice. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07w4y98 No one ever succeeded in proving it false. As little as the cardinals proved Galileo wrong. So why add it to your kitchen salt? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_deficiency A quarter of the world's sapienses don't get enough iodine. Are you gonna believe the WHO? There is only one general food source plentiful in iodine, as well as the other brain selective micronutrients. And that is seafood. You're denying irrefutable evidence for no other reason than that of Elaine Morgan being an irritating armchair scientist that is not supposed to have a point. You're all acting out of sociological bullshit, not scientic enquiry. And it needs to stop, 'cause her studies have over time revealed why we have been losing our brain for 40 millenia, and why it will only continue for any foreseeable future. Without Morgan, we would simply not know this. Stop pissing on your own giant already!!!

The biochemical building blocks still aren't there unless you use them tools to crack open a handful of oysters couple times a week. For hundreds of thousands of years. Do that for two million years, what you get? Bigger and bigger brain. Without salt water fauna seafood, an ape just won't evolve it. The Earth is not the center of the universe. What can you do?

Exactly. Because bipedalism evolved +5mya in the hinterland of Africa, in freshwater lakes and streams. Vertical bipedalism is what happens when all simian species wade through shallow water, as illustrated above. We see that as bipedalism in the early hominin fossils, because they became a semiaquatic ape first in African jungles, evolving from even earlier canopy dwelling apes. Conversely, the growing brain needs salt water biomes. Both terrestrial and fresh water foodchains simply do not contain the micronutrients necessary for a mammal species to evolve that large brain across cento millenia. It needs specifically EPA and DHA fatty acids and most crucially iodine to do it. That's why an ocean dolphin have five times the brain of a savannah zebra. 'Cause lo and behold, salt water foodchains have those exact building blocks in quantity. That's why the hominin brain grew exponentially long after the birth of hominin bipedalism, because a strand of australopithecines made the transition from fresh water to salt water in East Africa ~2mya, giving birth to the Homo family. A then flooded Afar Triangle was the perfect tropical cradle towards the beach ape that you all still are. There is no terrestrial scenario that can thus explain that difference in dates for bipedalism and growing brain, respectively. The aquatic one can.

Which is why all other simians and mammals also needing access to fresh water doesn't evolve surfer's ear, obviously. Neanderthals and erectus before them. At least two million years of hominin evolution is accompanied by surfer's ear. Right from the explosive brain growth of the Homo family. You do the math. I know, he's one of the heretics. He says what you don't want to hear: That this inconvenient truth is long since proven using your own scientific method. You need all this to be nuts for deeply complex sociological reasons, and it just refuses to be, it's disgusting. Then to hell with your own scientific method.

It was always semiaquatic. From before zoology coined the term "semiaquatic". I'm not responsible for WHAT YOU WISH THIS IDEA WAS SUGGESTING!!! Four lines of text, over sixty years old. And you all still refuse to read them!!! 'CAUSE THERE IS NOTHING NEW TO LEARN!!! THE EARTH IS STILL THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE!!! Still no mermaids in there. They were never there in the first place. Still nothing crazy. 'Cause it was never crazy. You arrogant fools have pissed on your own giant long enough. The continents of the Earth move!!! You know how old the genes coding for the ALA-to-DHA enzymes are? 40,000 years. The exact same date as the beginning of sapiens' brain atrophy. What a coincidence. Almost as if your ancestors had to evolve that function to try and keep synthetic access to DHA from other fatty acids when evolving away from being a fishing ape and towards of big game hunting ape. Which is clearly being done insufficiantly, 'cause your brain has been shrinking ever since. But how could you possibly know that? You're not allowed to read these banned volumes. In paleoanthropology, you're only allowed to take their word for it. Are you also gonna deny that your master race sapiens brain has been shrinking since the genocide of the fishing Neanderthals?

"During the last few years, when I have found myself in the company of distinguished biologists, evolutionary theorists, paleoanthropologists and other experts, I have often asked them to tell me, please, exactly why Elaine Morgan must be wrong about the aquatic theory. I haven’t yet had a reply worth mentioning, aside from those who admit, with a twinkle in their eyes, that they have also wondered the same thing." - Dan Dennett, "Darwin's Dangerous Idea" (1995)

There are 8 billion semiaquatic apes living on Planet Earth today. Is that clear enough for you? And you're not even acknowledging the existence of the relevant litterature. You don't even click the link.

I am. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5696936/ But you're burning these banned volumes. 'Cause we already know everything. Nullius in Verba doesn't apply. Only Might Makes Right.

Surfer's ear does not evolve in cold winds and rain. I'm gonna repeat that: Surfer's ear does not evolve in cold winds and rain. You have to be in water for hours a week for years. Hence the name. All I know is that today, Homo sapiens match the freediving capacity of sea otters and hippos.

And then there is reality. Jim Moore is this debate's Dan Brown. We are an old beach ape. Of course we are. Nothing else makes any damn sense, if we truly are a result of the mechanisms of evolution as put forth by Darwin and Wallace. And you're stuck in thinking the Earth is still the center of the universe, and that you don't have to read these banned volumes. The Waterside Ape | BBC R4

Funny how screenplay writer Elaine Morgan to this day is poo-poo'ed for being an amateur speaking up in proper company, but you just looove to listen to car mechanic Jim Moore, an amateur in equal measure. I know. You're still the master race. The peak of evolution causing your own extinction. Of course you're much smarter than the inferior Neanderthals. We all know the Earth is the center of the universe. Except for FUCKING SURFER'S EAR IN THE DAMN SKULLS!!! GO TAKE A FUCKING LOOK YOURSELF!!! THIS IS FULL ON DENYING IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE!!! YOU'RE DOING NOTHING DIFFERENT FROM CREATIONISTS!!! 'Cause baboons are smart enough to recognize the same thing, sure. Hippos aren't bipedal in water, because they don't descend from brachiating simians +25mya. Except when you pick aquatic foods for five million years.

Science is a strange culprit, it stays true whether you believe in it or not. What you're all feeling right now is the sensation of the cardinals in 1632 in Rome.

Uhuh. Except that Homo sapiens have lost about 100cc of brain volume over the last 40,000 years. Doing with less: hominin brain atrophy I am just gonna repeat that: Homo sapiens have lost about 100cc of brain volume over the last 40,000 years. Which does coincide with the earliest true archeological evidence of big game hunting in Eurasia, of mammoths, etc. Suggesting that maybe as late as 40kya is when hominins started to let go of a chiefly aquatic diet rich in brain beneficial nutrients, in favor of a more calorific terrestrial diet lacking is such nutrients. Which is slowly costing us that big brain we're so bloody proud of. And sapiens 40kya is not even the hominin with the largest brain ever. That was the Neanderthals that they genocided. That's right. That's not being said out loud that often either. Them dumb-as-pig-shit Neanderthals that you have all been taught was subhuman had a bigger average brain than you and your direct ancestors. They were likely smarter than you and your ancestry too. In the 1990s, Peter Rhys-Evans made the testable suggestion that surfer's ear would be detectable in hominin fossils, if they had really been largely fishing apes. And OH MY!: Aural exostoses (surfer’s ear) provide vital fossil evidence of an aquatic phase in Man’s early evolution Neanderthals also got 'surfer's ear,' suggesting they liked to fish AS SOON AS SOMEONE GOT THEIR HEAD OUT THEIR ARSE AND ACTUALLY STARTED TO LOOK AT THE ALREADY EXISTING FOSSIL ARCHIVE!!! BUT GO ON ABOUT HOW THERE IS NO FOSSIL EVIDENCE FOR THE AQUATIC APE HYPOTHESIS!!! A journalist once told Albert Einstein about the publication of a book titled, "100 Authors Against Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity". His reply was: "Why one hundred? If I were wrong, one would have been enough." No sjit. That is a helluva thing: Every single ape and monkey species becomes vertically bipedal when wading through shallow water. But of course that can't possibly support the heretic notion that that's how hominin habitual bipedalism began in hinterland lakes and streams in Africa. That's because you don't read up. 'Cause you think you don't have to [Survival of the fattest: the key to human brain evolution] These have become banned volumes and Nullius in Verba somehow don't apply.

What would make the victims' families feel that justice has been served? What would make them feel protected by the law? Question: How often does it happen in South Carolina, that a white person gets the death penalty for a crime against somebody black? Who's the last white getting executed for a crime against a black in SC?

The confederate cross is the de facto swastika of North America. It symbolizes this: Had you really forgotten? This is a human being, who had his back torn out by a leather whip by a violent criminal, whom a sick culture didn't deem eligible for punishment. "It's just a n****r." Simply because this man's ancestry lived under more sun than the ancestry of the criminal swinging the whip. THAT is what the confederate cross will forever symbolize. It was designed specifically to represent that sick culture. That's why violent psychos all over the world still use it. It was, is and will always be the slave flag. It doesn't symbolize "we just want to be left alone, Washington" and never will. It doesn't symbolize sexy Hollywood stars with busoms in expensive garments dreaming back to happy days, when "n****rs did as their were told, so us good white folk could live our God given life style." Exactly as how the swastika will always symbolize camps of industrialized genocide, aimed at an ethnicity who by an equally sick culture were pseudoscientifically deemed subhuman and subject to being "expedited." The swastika doesn't symbolize "restored German honor after the humiliating conditions in the treaty of Versailles" and never will. Even if somewhere in Dresden, a ninety-something year old geezer can't let go of his glory days driving a tank across the fields of France, while he keeps blabbing about all the good Hitler did for Germany before the war. Dylan Roof chose that symbol to illustrate his madness for a reason. Just as he chose the flags of Apartheid-era South Africa and white-supremacy Rhodesia as well. While burning the Stars and Stripes. Hell, he probably didn't throw the swastika in for good measure, 'cause he didn't have to. There is no pride to be found for white Southerners in the confederate cross. It only tells the story of as shameful a chapter of their history as the nazi era were for the Germans. The Germans at least banned the Swastika from all public life. Why the hell are they suddenly better than Americans on this? Why the hell are we even discussing this? Can you really not see beyond Vivien Leighs t**s???

Seriously? I'm the problem here? I think you should be more concerned about the ones not using the word N, then.

"Bah. It's just niggers." And I'm sure his defence will be crocodile tears all over that. "He is a young man with all sorts of hormones bubbling through his system. He was confused and not responsible for his actions and shouldn't die because of it. Look at him, everyone can see that." Translated: "Come on, people. It's just niggers. It's not like he killed somebody important." Be interesting to see if there's any bloody difference between 1955 and 2015 Carolinas.

Both American and European right wing nutballs use both the swastika and the confederate flag for a reason. Somewhere in Germany there is still some old fella from the Afrika Korps dreaming back to the good ol' days of glory and honor, when he flew the swastika on his uniform. "Then I was a winner, then the girls wanted me." When Adolf Hitler designed the red, white and black swastika for his insane racist fantasy, he did so for an inhuman society based on perpetual racism; the pesudoscientific notion, that his ethnicity as a natural fact was superior to that of jews and other "degenerates," that nedded to be weeded out. When W. T. Thompson designed the red, white and blue confederate flag, he did exactly the same; to desperately keep alive a just as inhuman society of perpetual racism; the pesudoscientific notion, that his ethnicity had the natural right to own another, because his was the only decent one. By default. Both are follies, both lost the war, and justice has never been better served. But some refused to acknowledge that defeat. Refused to let go of their sinful culture. Refused to acknowledge, that their way of life was the inferior one. And some still do. Out of sheer pig arrogance. Those people are losers of society looking for an excuse for why it ain't their fault. There is a simple principle in law: You find a "precocious toddler, a fertile octogenarian and a moron in a hurry" when ruling against perpetuities. They are fictional types of people, simply put "the man in the street." And if you would ask them, "Is the confederate cross flag just as much a symbol of hateful racism as the nazi swastika," and the answer runs along the lines of "Yeah, duh!," then it is. No. There is no case, only disgrace. It was an American tragedy that it wasn't eternally outlawed in 1865. That if anything allowed white racism to fester. Take it down, now!
