Pretty much. ;)

I wouldn't get that high and mighty about it, though. As a rule, people everywhere don't know d-ck about anywhere but their locality.

"Flyover country" is anywhere but Home.

I disagree to the extent that certain places that aren't home tend to receive more coverage and therefore have more general awareness about them, either due to size or importance (or both). For instance, the number of times a storm goes thru the Midwest with the token 30 seconds of shots of downed trees and damaged roofs turns into mega news when it reaches East of the Appalachians.

Or the way the rest of the world follows the US elections in ways we never follow theirs.

Put another way, the effect may be universal, but not equally so.

There's a reason for that.

NCAA pulls seven championship events from North Carolina due to HB2. The state GOP responds thusly:


“This is so absurd it’s almost comical,” North Carolina Republican Party spokesperson Kami Mueller said in a statement Monday. “I genuinely look forward to the NCAA merging all men’s and women’s teams together as singular, unified, unisex teams. Under the NCAA’s logic, colleges should make cheerleaders and football players share bathrooms, showers and hotel rooms. This decision is an assault to female athletes across the nation. If you are unwilling to have women’s bathrooms and locker rooms, how do you have a women’s team?

“I wish the NCAA was this concerned about the women who were raped at Baylor,” Mueller continued. “Perhaps the NCAA should stop with their political peacocking — and instead focus their energies on making sure our nation’s collegiate athletes are safe, both on and off the field.”

That issue truly does create a myriad of worrying issues. Economies of the future would shrink with birthrates that fall below a certain threshold, and national security could be on the line, too. While this may sound like a Baptist's dream situation, again, it can lead to a great number of issues. There's no way to anticipate all of the issues a nation would see with this situation.

There's the obvious one: With a stagnant or negative population replacement rate a nation is positioned to be overwhelmed by immigrants who become the new majority. See: Europe.

So what?

It's all the same genome in the end.

The only problem I see is that smarter women have fewer babies, not that whiter women have fewer babies. If we're gonna be inundated with a tidal wave of genius browns to replace our moron whites, I'm all for it.

Nationality is arbitrary and race has zero meaning. Fix it so the smart people reproduce and I'm fine with disappearing into that dark night.

It's not a genome thing, it's a cultural thing. (At least for me.) The French are fighting to maintain French culture while their immigrant population, largely Muslim, want to see a more socially conservative society come into being.
