Lol what is with you guys and throwing around "r-selected" all of the sudden , what crackpot site are you getting this from ?
very interesting
LOL then what happened to it? Because China is one of the most collectivist nations on the planet.
Its pretty foundational biology that describes differing strategies organisms use to survive in differing environmental conditions with varying resource abundance.
Greece is part of Europe/the West you moron. Now present evidence of individualism in ancient Egypt and Sumer (not 'Sumeria').
Yeah, Greece is considered the West dude.... that's not really controversial.
Before I push your shit in with the ecological and evolutionary reasons why communities in Europe developed individualism and a universal understanding of ethics, while other ethnicities did not, does any other region come to mind?
Egypt and Sumeria are out. That was a stupid comment about them respecting individualism. Anywhere in Asia come to mind? Africa? North America? South America? The aborigines of Australia? Madagascar maybe?
Sure, in the 70s lmao.
Depends on your classification. He also lumped Greece in with Europe, as if it was the same thing.
Egypt, largely was collectivist, but there were many individualistic aspects. The heads of houses, especially after the period of the golden age of Greece, would compete against each other for fame and piety. Their odd fascination with their personal burial rights would be a ready example.
In Sumeria, although we dont know as much of the nation as say, Rome, we do know that their society was modeled after a distaste of centralized control. Sumeria might be the first example of what was later known as the city state. This is, however, only after the end of the Uruk period in their cultural history.
Read my post to golden nirvana. I do laugh, however, at your cretinous lumping of Greece with Europe, as defined as the west together.

If it's your intention to use, uh, biology to argue that... the west invented ethics, let me caution that cards will likely be handed out to anyone that starts in on the racist biological superiority nonsense. There was already a mod warning in this thread about racism.Before I push your shit in with the ecological and evolutionary reasons why communities in Europe developed individualism and a universal understanding of ethics, while other ethnicities did not, does any other region come to mind?
And you are using it in a very peculiar way, you are probably driving at something but I couldn't care less what that is.Its pretty foundational biology that describes differing strategies organisms use to survive in differing environmental conditions with varying resource abundance.
Greece is part of Europe. Stop making a fool of yourself.
When you learned history in undergrad... or whereever, was the history of Greece taught as part of the West? Is it part of the EU now?
So we have that covered. I also crossed my t's and dotted my i's by re-reading your post. You mentioned the oldest civilizations that we know about. Nothing about individualism or universal ethical principles arriving anywhere outside of western societies. To get you on your knees and lubed up for this dick of facts you're going have your shit pushed in by, anywhere else come to mind?
You shouldn't have warned him , I'm pretty sure I was about to draw that outIf it's your intention to use, uh, biology to argue that... the west invented ethics, let me caution that cards will likely be handed out to anyone that starts in on the racist biological superiority nonsense.

So what?

maybe he really likes Greek ifyaknowwhatimeanI was under the impression I did not fail to mention, and include examples for, Egypt and Sumeria. This lubing dick talk on your part is odd....
