Traditional values as the worst evolutionary instincts
Humans worship their instincts as if they were moral laws. They call them traditions. They call them values. But many of them are nothing more than prehistoric impulses dressed as ethics. What once helped a tribe survive now keeps humanity divided, violent, and blind. The worst part is that we glorify our weaknesses and call…

The psychology of nationalism and patriotism
Nationalism and patriotism look alike at first glance. Both are forms of loyalty to a collective. Both stir emotion, shape politics, and influence moral decisions. However, they differ in tone and intent. Patriotism is personal affection for a country—an attachment to its culture, people, and values. By contrast, nationalism transforms that attachment into a political…

How far can nationalism go? And its fake origin
Nationalism often begins harmlessly. A song. A flag. A map on a school wall. It speaks of unity, heritage, and pride. However, behind this comforting mask lies a force that has shattered civilizations. Nationalism does not stop at belonging. Instead, it sharpens identity into exclusion. Myths spread. Hatred intensifies. In many cases, violence follows. Once…

Freethinkers International: Why this project must be Dutch-made
I hate nationalism. I hate tribalism. Both are poisons. Both divide, distort, and destroy. Nationalism gives us enemies where there were neighbors.

Of ideas rooted…

Let’s stop this with the famous claim “The biggest problem in politics is the stupidity of people” made by Helmut Schmidt. But…

While this comes natural for Homo sapiens, this article shows how much suffering this has brought. Patriotism is obsolete in every aspect. My article explains when there is no sensible of genetically improving…

Who is George Soros working with? After mixing all the races in Europe, IQ drops and a ban on nationalism at schools occurs
George Soros doesn’t work with one particularly distinct religious clientelistic group but whoever he wants to work with (someone bigger than he is). I am not saying the subject of his article is his work, I truly believe my sentient readers will get the clue. We all know different races possess different innate intelligence. And…

Different nationalities, different races, different languages, different religions. Why not to kill each other?
Post-colonial Africa suffers from artificial borders that their occupiers made without regard to ethnicity, religion, or nationality. This really didn’t reduce all the violence. But genocides, wars and ethnic cleansing are not just African specialties. People speak different languages, are of different nationalities, different races, and their religions also differ. So why not to kill…
