The Delusion of Altruism: Inclusive Fitness and the Collapse of Civilization
Michael Starks
The genetic predisposition to help our close relatives ( altruism ), which was vital to survival in our ancestors on the plains of Africa tens of thousands to tens of millions of years ago, is a fatal defect in an overcrowded world where our neighbors are no longer closely related and are engaged in a life and death struggle for survival. I have referred to this as ‘The One Big Happy Family Delusion’ and it is central to the suicidal utopian delusions of the political left, which arise due to the temporary abundance of resources and relative peace made possible by the merciless rape of the earth. Liberal political views that made sense in the past are bringing about the collapse of modern democratic societies and perhaps of civilization itself. Though this is obvious to any bright ten year old with access to the net or even satellite tv, it is totally opaque to the liberal/democratic/neomarxist/neofascist/third world supremacist/20,30,40 something Googloids and iPhoners, who will soon take over and destroy prosperity and peace in America and the UK, and then the world, both directly, and by leaving it open to destruction by the Mexican Cartels, Islamic Jihadists and far above and beyond all, the Seven Sociopaths who rule China. America and the world are in the process of collapse from excessive population growth, most of it for the last century, and now all of it, due to 3rd world people. Consumption of resources and the addition of 2 billion more ca. 2100 will collapse industrial civilization and bring about starvation, disease, violence and war on a staggering scale. The earth loses at least 1% of its topsoil every year, so as it nears 2100, most of its food growing capacity will be gone. Billions will die and nuclear war is all but certain. In America, this is being hugely accelerated by massive immigration and immigrant reproduction, combined with abuses made possible by democracy. Depraved human nature inexorably turns the dream of democracy and diversity into a nightmare of crime and poverty. Ignorance of basic biology and psychology leads to the social engineering delusions of the partially educated who control democratic societies. Few understand that if you help one person you harm someone else-there is no free lunch and every single item anyone consumes destroys the earth beyond repair. Consequently, social policies everywhere are unsustainable and one by one all societies without stringent controls on selfishness will collapse into anarchy or dictatorship. The most basic facts, almost never mentioned, are that there are not enough resources in America or the world to lift a significant percentage of the poor out of poverty and keep them there. The attempt to do this is bankrupting America and destroying the world. The earth’s capacity to produce food decreases daily, as does our genetic quality. And now, as always, by far the greatest enemy of the poor is other poor and not the rich. Without dramatic and immediate changes, there is no hope for preventing the collapse of America, or any country that follows a democratic system.
