>He said it's hard to DOMESTICATE Zebras.
It's hard to domesticate animals, period.

>>138514016
It ignores India, which had all the advantages Europe did.

Its a desperate, disingenuous attempt to try and explain why Europeans utterly excelled as conquerors of the world and developers of tech and thought by using every single argument except the most salient: IQ, high trust and biology.

>Please, don't post the TAMED zebras. He said it's hard to DOMESTICATE Zebras.

You tame the animals, kill the ones that don't cooperate, and repeat with the next generation; eventually the Darwin Fairy magically makes the animals Domesticated.

Aurochs, for example, the forerunner to the modern cow, were terrifying man-killers. Now they're hamburger filing.

I've seen retarded niggers literally using this book as an argument for why Egypt was black lol

Jewish author
Peer reviews result in Diamond getting BTFO.
Obvious anti white propaganda.

Also, I think he spends too much time focusing on why the Native Americans were such pushovers and less on why the Industrial Revolution, or the Military Revolution, or the Enlightenment, or the Agricultural Revolution, or useful firearms, or deep-sea navigation, or any number of other things all happened in Europe and not anywhere else.

Geographical determinism.

Critical flaw is that the arguments that apply to Europe apply more to China, with no explanation.

White people

Raised in captivity and trained to the saddle, exactly the same as any horse

if this thread doesn't prove that pol is retarded idk what will

>>138515245
This.
Right on point. This is exactly what is wrong with liberal thinking. There's no way gentics are to blame for different outcomes between groups it must be sole environment oh plus evil whitey that fuck every thing up. And they wonder why we want to gas them?

>>138514016
You're a racist if you don't agree with this book, don't you get it anon?

>>138514016
(((Diamond)))

He starts from his a faulty premise.

I.e. All humans are the same. And draws all his conclusions from that maxim.

>>138514016
white power fags hate it because it doesn't say europe conquered the world because europeans are better than everybody else

The entire book is a circular argument by a Jew who specializes in ornithology, not evolution. The environment shapes the genes of the people and then people are able to shape their environment. We evolved into who we are from cold, dark winters where only the strongest and smartest survived. Then the strongest and smartest proceeded to tame their environment. It's complete Jewish sophistry.

>>138514016
I don't know and I don't care. Is it a book written just so the west accepts immigration?

Also, the Jew ignores the neanderthal DNA that only negroes lack and the impact this may have had. Whether purely genetic or from fighting them for survival as evolutionary pressure.

The races are different because of geography

which then impacts biology.

(((((((OY VEY))))))))

You tame a series of them for decades and breed out the ones less suitable for human needs.

Domestication isn't, has never been, and will never be easy.

Excellent book. /pol/ is just unintelligent to read books more than 100 pages lol

Which is why Guns Germs and Steel is on the shelves of Barnes and Noble.

>>138516635
The critical flaw is that geographical determinism is too broad to be taken seriously as a historical argument. In other words, it's not an argument.

>>138517640
Environment shapes genetics, friend.

Only partially over a very long period. Domesticated dogs will still run off chasing deer or rabbits if allowed to even if never taught to do so.
