The only question is which groups are best suited to excel in that environment, usually defined as increasing their population relative to other groups.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, people often confuse Survival of Fittest with Survival of the Best. Fittest doesn\u2019t mean smartest or most civilized or nicest (definitely not nicest). Ironically, Africans may be the race that best suits the current environment. It\u2019s a time of plenty and they breed big time when times are good. Europeans (and their diaspora) may be particularly ill-suited for this environment, which, ironically, we created.<\/p>\n<p>Conquest can come in many forms. It can be Conan and his buddies overwhelming lessor warriors or it can be African immigrants moving into the lands of a people that no longer has the will to defend their borders.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, the conquest is right from the standpoint of promoting those genes that work in the current environment and letting those genes that don\u2019t die out.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, I disagree with Steve: Invasion is good. Those who can\u2019t or won\u2019t defend their borders \u2013 their people \u2013 should be replaced by those who can.<\/p>\n<p>(How\u2019s that for being able to look objectively at a situation. I belong to a people being conquered, and I can\u2019t hate it more. But I\u2019ve spent years tying to get friends, family and neighbors to wake up to what\u2019s happening and all I\u2019ve got for my efforts is scorn. I\u2019ll keep trying, but it\u2019s tough being part of a suicide cult.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments at Steve Sailer: * Every era presents a new environment.
