No problem. In fact i apologize if i came out as pedantic or pontificating. I just wanted to clarify my opinion on these genetic alalisis. Ultimatley the pist is correct in what matters the diference between russians and ukranians is a geografical gradient. And linguistic distance is not really correlated with genetics.
So there are some things here that i find irksome.
Lets begin with a very useful heuristic.
“Pots are not people, genes are not languages”
This means that when i learnt english my original genetic materoal did not change. Similarly if a population adopts parts of a material culture that would be interpreted as such archeologically this does not mean they had the same language or that they were genetically related. Everyone can build a sky scraper.
This is one of the reasons we cant know what happened before historical records. We can make educated guesses based on how we think certain demografic and linguistic phenomena work based on observations of hostoracal societies.
From these we can conclude that advection, great migrations moving enough people to affect genetics, only happens in very rate ocasions. In the americas, australia, and mybe the roman peopling of the western mediterranean and russian siberia. If you are an advectionist you have to explain why pre historic societies behaved in this way. But i have not seen anyone do that. Advection is often just assumed.
The main mover of demografic change in humans historically has been difussion. That is merchants and individual people moving around foliwing some sort of gradient.
As such you should expect genetic markers to be areanged in large gradients, defined by geografical features. The article finds this. And this is correct.
Everything else is either wrong or likley wrong. The mixing events are an artifice of statistical models asuming advection. They also make a number of other dubious asumptions regarding mutation rates and reconvination.
The timline for the development of slavs and indoeuropen is also wrong. The earliest ie language in the historical record is hittite. This is newer that 4000 ybp. Then there is tocharian wich should have diverged about the same time, indo aryan apearsa few hundreth years latter. We can asume diferent rates of linguistuc change, but bsed on the historical record and asuming creolization to speed language change as beckwith does its likley proto indoeuropean began to diverge arounf 4000ybp so claiming protobaltoslavic diverged from the rest of indoeuropean languages 7 to 3.5 kybp is equivalent to claiming slavic languages are as distinct as tocharian. Utter nonsense.
Finally we know from the historical record iranians(language wise) came from the east around 3kybp likley after they produced a horse big enough to carra a human on its back. We dont know were in the east they came from could be the altai, could be hazarajat, could be elswhere. But we know that when they got to ukraine there were already proto slavs there the bodi who happened to be agriculturalusts ocuping areas near bodies of watter hence bodi. So their model of origin for protoslavs can be easily disproven by the historical record. Specially the model with so many advection events.
Finally asuming advection is a calvinist doctrine that implies your birth (genetics) determines rour position, that race is a rwal thing and the main mover of history instead of just an artifice of circumstance. And that genocide was common. But the truth is genocide is ver hard, it requiers either a certain level of state capacity we have only arrived at in the last 150 years or vast technologica demografic or epidemiological gradients. All these asumptions and implications are wrong and the sort of people tgat beleve them are irksome.
Superhuman order not necessarily supernatural. Unless you hold the philosophical position in wich reality is a product of human subjective experience. No i have not read the book but it says rigth there in the screenshot.
Its certainly a wierd taxonomy and i have no idea of what uses it may have. But there are sets that can be defined in such a way.
With covid around you shuldnt go to a movie teather.
Disney cape shit sucks i agree. But be responsible and dont go to enclosed crowded places when there is an airborn plague.
Maneuverable reentry vehicles the iranian hypersonic misslies that were unveiled were these types too.
A titanic figure after all.
I asume its the same for other us warheads claimed to be hypersonic like the minute man ones. Is this also the case for similar gizmos in use by other countries like iran?
Thanks in the wikipedia it says 8 - 10 so thats why i asked
If he was human sized then how come he could wield a spoon big enough to fit all the grain in ukraine?
What if covid was a terrorist atack on china and iran by obama loyalists? With the aded benefit ithat it put them back in power.

There is no ssuch thing as absolute rule by a single figure. Unles they are are some sort of wizard with unfathomable abilities. In reality these figures are representatives of class interests.
Didnt the pershing ii have a warhead that could maneuver at hypersonic speeds? While it is still a balistic missile and not a glider presumably the materials used should meet the heat requierments of a hypersonic glider? Unless it was all made up and it didnt do what it claimed?
A recurrent gag in the chinese novel when a mage revolts is that the mc often figths other mages that have anti magic talismans or are messing with his casting so he shoots them with a flintlock
Man you are making me feel like im stealing drug war veteran value. We only operated for a few months and sold mainly to fishermen and sailormen.
Well i dont any more. But yea it was a fun bussines venture, comming up with the various chemichal proceses.
That resembles the ancient chinise ritual of gu too much, what if you creat a super fascist?
They put the pagans: prussians, pomeranians, pomeralians, etc in plantations. There is even one (wrong) economic theory that says the reason eastern germany is less developed economically than the west is because of the impact of those plantations. This model likley influenced hittler in some way.
As for nationalism. I think what differentiates nazis from other facists is that the former see the race as the mover of history while the later see the state. (Both are wrong, the correct answer is clases as defined by their relations to production, and race is not even a real thing) so this nazi may see the baltic conflict from a racial lens rather than a nationalist. Or more likley is thinking in anachronisms.
in that conflict the germans were the christians and the pagans were the balts and slavs… but this guy claims to be a pagan.
To play devils advocate one could argue that the theory of relativity stated as a matematical metaphor is already the information as processed by humans. And that such a descriptive statment about the world implies a belef in consistent natural laws.
I also dont see how that description about religion is useful. Dont worry abou being sleepy. Rest comarade. Somtimes i have migranes and take days to reply
