Milo shows, K-selected Out-grouping Is Not Yet Strong Enough

Milo puts Breitbart first:

THE senior editor of a right-wing website has resigned after a video emerged online showing him discussing paedophilia.

Milo Yiannopoulos said he did not want his “poor choice of words to detract” from his Breitbart News colleagues’ “important reporting”.

The supporter of Donald Trump hit the headlines after footage emerged of him saying “older men help those young boys to discover who they are”.

Announcing his resignation on Tuesday evening, the 32-year-old said: “I would be wrong to allow my poor choice of words to detract from my colleagues’ important reporting, so today I am resigning from Breitbart, effective immediately. This decision is mine alone.

“Breitbart News has stood by me when others caved. They have allowed me to carry conservative and libertarian ideas to communities that would otherwise never have heard them. They have been a significant factor in my success.

“I’m grateful for that freedom and for the friendships I forged there.”

He added: “When your friends have done right by you. you do right by them. For me, now, that means stepping aside so my colleagues at Breitbart can get back to the great work they do.”

One of the pains in the ass when trying to garner clicks without MSM support is that you need to produce content that shocks amygdalae, to burn memories of yourself into people’s minds and create a brand image – and you need to do it in as short a contact time as possible. If you look at the people who are successful in the alt-right, you will find their average content is borderline over-the-edge. Inevitably, some of the content may seem over the edge, just due to the way averages work. Those who have less over-the-edge content, perhaps this site included, invariably will have to come to terms with the fact they will never achieve Milo-level popularity and name recognition.

It is tempting to use a single piece of over-the-edge content to judge them, especially since being the most outrageous of their content, it will tend to stick in your mind better and be more highly prioritized by the amygdala due to how the mind works. Although that works as a means of judgment in the real world, in the online world it is probably useless. So without personally knowing Milo, but knowing the business somewhat, I am prone to view Milo’s comments as one of the periodically too-shocking comments that inevitably get made when you are trying to walk up to the line, triggering amygdalae enough to be memorable, without triggering a SWAT raid.

The main reason I find this Milo-situation to be interesting is that it highlights a critical stimulus liberals respond to – their ability to splinter their opposition. In this situation, they are seeing a significant portion of the establishment right turn on Milo, and punish him for some comments from years back. To liberals, this is incredibly relieving to their amygdalae. They have successfully played, “Lets you and him fight,” inflicting harm on Milo, without enduring any appreciable risk themselves.

The opposite of that stimulus would be if we looked at Milo, looked at the liberal, and totally ignored what the left was telling us about Milo, as we turned on the liberals with even greater ferocity. To the left, that would be the material mental meltdowns are made of.

My assumption is that it approximates what would have happened eons back when they traveled to a new land and felt threatened. They would have tried to turn the natives on somebody else. If the natives turned on the target, the r-strategists would have felt both control and relief. If the natives were unswayed and focused their rage instead on the r-strategist migrant, the r-strategist would essentially know that their days in that land were numbered. The panic they would feel would motivate their further migration.

We have seen the latter stimulus applied to the left recently. Candidate Donald Trump was their ultimate attempt at out-grouping and splintering. Liberals had made the best effort at out-grouping possible, trying to turn the nation on Trump. And then the nation ignored their arguments against Donald and elected him. That panic we see is a programmed response designed to provoke migration.

If this time the entirety of the right had ignored Milo’s old comments, the left would have gone apoplectic because that would have been a sign of full on K-selection. It would have signaled that people were more concerned with survival and the protection of the nation from the traitors of the left, than attacking Milo. For that to happen now, we’d need to purge the cucks and the establishment hacks, something easier and more likely to occur as we approach the onset of full K-selection, when all of this will occur naturally.

Until then, when creating shocking content, steer clear of any stimulus which runs counter to the K-selected urges regarding the protection of children, or of loyalty to group. Ignoring that warning will give ammunition to the left, and perhaps more importantly, amygdala-relaxation.

Spread r/K Theory, because we need the left to have less amygdala relaxation.

The simple fact is, that if Milo was a typical Leftist SJW and said what he did, he would have been celebrated by the Left. And anyone from the Right questioning his statements would be accused of homophobia.

Although I take your point, I would also note that a substantial portion of the right did not outgroup Milo, even in the face of the charges that were made. If charges of that nature are only producing a limited out-grouping, K is damnably close.

I’ll have to go back and reread the parts ot the book on migration, because I feel this is a topic of very shaky ground. What historical evidence do we have on how migrants have tended to act over the eons? There’s also the argument Molyneux gave about “regression to the mean” – the initial wave of immigrants is tough and hard-working, but their children revert to being r-strategists as in the home country.

I agree with this. You don’t have to be for homosexuals or anything at all to giggle with glee every time he pounds a verbal stake into the Libs.

“One of the pains in the ass when trying to garner clicks without MSM support is that you need to produce content that shocks ”

Breitbart is a different beast.Mercer of Renaissance Technologies, a computer hedge fund, has invested 10 million of his personal money in it. Milo was his attack dog and he probably dropped him. Goal has been reached anyway. Trump is in office.

Google Maher Milo to see what MAHER had to say about statutory rape. Much worse.
Interestingly both are Jewish.

Why should we as libertarians compromise for either the K-selected conservatives or the r-selected liberals when it is obvious that we have the superior mindset and values?

“Lets you and him fight,” the psychiatric term is triangulation. Fake news is a major gaslighting operation.
