Non-Aryan ADHD

[quote]So, the question: where did ADHD come from? If you
compare the list of classic ADHD symptoms to a list of the
characteristics of a good hunter (as seen on page 20), you�ll
see that they match almost perfectly. In other words, an
individual with the ADHD collection of characteristics would
make an extraordinarily good hunter. A failure to have any one
of those characteristics might mean death in the forest or
jungle.
If ADHD is a collection of skills and predilections necessary
for the success and survival of a good hunter, what about
non-ADHD people? Where did their skills evolve from, and why do
they represent the majority of the people in our culture? The
answer lies with the second basic type of culture that primitive
man produced: the agricultural society. In this sort of
community, farmers were the ones who provided sustenance and
survival. And the skills of a good farmer are quite different
from those of a good hunter.[/quote]
This would also explain why ADHD is much more common among men
than among women, since men did most of the hunting in Gentile
societies and hence selective pressure for ADHD would have been
stronger in men:
[quote]Some estimates put ADHD as occurring in 20 percent of
males and 5 percent of females.[/quote]
However, ADHD is not a necessary trait to be a good hunter,
merely an advantageous trait, therefore many of what we call
Gentiles need not have ADHD. It would certainly be a mistake to
presume that the % of ADHD people corresponds to the Gentile %.
In particular, Gentiles would not have been selected for ADHD
provided they were fishers rather than (land) hunters, since
fishing is completely different from hunting in terms of
temperament required for success.
I am increasingly finding it plausible that, during the
Neolithic Revolution, fisher Gentiles were the ones initially
learning farming from - as well as mixing bloodlines with -
Aryans, not only because their racially typical temperament was
likely to have been more amenable to farming than that of the
hunter Gentiles, but also because they would have lived near
rivers anyway, hence were probably the first to encounter newly
arriving Aryans. (This does not imply that I ethically despise
fisher Gentiles any less.)

I have ADHD. They made me take amphetamines when I was in
school. I don't want that to happen to any other kids.
Combine that with my lactose tolerance, hell, my last name
translates into "Sheep Paddock," I made the right choice early
on not to reproduce.

[quote]If we consider the notion that Trump might just have
ADHD, the question becomes less mystifying. The reason Donald
Trump can�t stay on message is that his brain actually does not
support this way of processing information.
...
In fact, he most likely does not recognize this as a problem.
From the lens of ADHD, one can imagine Trump answering back,
�What do you mean, stay on message? There are hundreds of
messages � and I�m addressing them all!� To the ADHD mind, that
is not a contradictory statement. That is how information is
processed.
...
Yet another symptom adults with ADHD demonstrate is a constant
attraction � if not addiction � to excitement. They crave
adrenaline highs.
...
Another issue for adults with ADHD is that they tend to fall
into the trap of overpromising. People with ADHD are often so
convinced that the next new thing will �save the day� that they
are willing to promise anything and everything just to continue
to follow their new obsession.
...
if it is true that Donald Trump struggles with ADHD, he actually
believes he can deliver. He actually intends to see this thing
through, and may not even become aware that what he intends to
achieve is impossible. Or, he may lose interest prior to that
point � and truly not understand why people could be upset at
his actions.[/quote]

Interesting post. I'd be interested also to know what
relationship, if any, ADHD has to high and low blood pressure? I
do not have ADHD and I've always had a very low resting blood
pressure, to the point were it has actually caused some doctors
concern when checking my blood pressure, often making them check
twice just to be sure. I also have an extremely high fear
threshold, I can probably count on one hand, maybe two, the
number of times my fight or flight mechanism has been triggered.
I can also run long distances quickly, which has surprised many
people because I'm only 5'10" and do not look like I'm built for
long distance running. My lack of fear has actually put me in
some very dangerous situations in hindsight.
I would also like to take issue here with the Aryan ideal of not
building muscle in the gym by lifting weights heavier than ones
own body weight. A person can build massive muscle in the gym by
simply lifting light weight with contracted muscles. That person
would only need eat half their body weight in grams of protein
everyday to build a lot of muscle fast. This can be done
efficiently, and without wasting resources. Two cans of beans
and a protein shake would do it.
You can build big muscle just by lifting 10 pounds of weight
repeatedly with contracted\flexed muscles....
I'm not suggesting that people should do that either, nor do I
appreciate physiques with massive amounts of muscle, or
high-sexual dimorphism. I'm just pointing out what is stated on
the main sight in this regard is not accurate.

"I'm only 5'10" and do not look like I'm built for long distance
running"
I'm not sure why you say "only" 5'10", which is already above
average for long distance runners:
www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=1164007
[quote]The average height & Weight for the top 10 ranked
marathoners is as follows:
For men:
5'7.75" and 129.5 lbs.
...
For women:
5'3.92" and 104.2 lbs.[/quote]
"I would also like to take issue here with the Aryan ideal of
not building muscle in the gym by lifting weights heavier than
ones own body weight. A person can build massive muscle in the
gym by simply lifting light weight with contracted muscles."
Those were meant to be two independent points:
1) do not build excess muscle
2) do not lift weights heavier than one's own body weight
The reason for 1) is that excess muscle costs extra energy to
maintain, which is wasteful.
The reason for 2) is that muscles are evolved to support no more
than our own body weight, therefore to lift significantly
heavier weights on a frequent basis is to unhealthily overexert
them.

Autism is basically the opposite of ADHD, the only thing they
share is difficulty fitting in socially/societally,
sensory/emotional issues, and they're more often diagnosed in
males ("why" is a subject of debate - more on this below).
Autism associated with retaining synapses/grey matter from
childhood/infancy, at the expense of developing mature,
"functional" networks like the Default Mode Network through
synaptic pruning. ADHD is associated with having fewer
synapses/grey matter than normal and a hyperactive Default Mode
Network (which inhibits the Task Positive Network; whereas
neurotypical people can readily switch between them).
---
Gender in ADHD and Autism:
One thing that can be said is Autism and ADHD are more
"symptomatically" masculine. Females can better compensate for
attention, linguistic and social deficits; which alone could
result in disproportionate diagnosis in males. But they're not
just a set of deficits - they're entire phenotypes and their
diagnosis isn't necessarily parallel to their natural selection.
(note, neurodiversity is a spectrum and people in these
categories don't necessarily exemplify them 100%)
The Autistic phenotype: Consistency, focused (unless
disinterested/distracted), less reward-dependent, inhibited,
hypotonic, impaired social tact, dislikes small-talk, organized,
hyposexual
The ADHD phenotype: Variety, unfocused (unless sufficiently
stimulated), more reward-dependent, disinhibited, hypertonic,
impaired affective empathy, chatty, messy, hypersexual
If they both are indeed more prevalent in males this could
suggest fisher and hunter types respectively, but the deceptive
tact of fishing contradicts autistic guilelessness, and autistic
people would prefer the predictable, logical routine of farming,
which they can be directly and single-mindedly involved in. In
my experience autistic people communicate with/relate to animals
extraordinarily well in spite of our difficulties with humans,
and we experience intense affective empathy. Edit: I asked
recently in an Autism group on Facebook, "how well do you
communicate with animals?" and the vast majority of people
expressed above average ability, happy not having to worry about
the convoluted rules and unfrankness peculiar to humans.
---
Results of a survey I posted in several Facebook groups (a
"random polls" group, an Autism group, and an ADHD group).
"Which role would you prefer?" The sample size was only 50-100
people and the results didn't differ drastically (besides
hunting being extremely unpopular among Autistics) but maybe
it's interesting nonetheless. I was surprised that hunting and
fishing were equally popular among people with ADHD, since my
two friends with ADHD are both enthusiastic hunters. One
commenter said they didn't have the patience for stalking prey.
Quite honestly I've always been more averse to normies than the
neurodivergent, they are the "fit" ones - the pawns to do
nature's bidding.

[quote]I've also learned that both people with ADHD and people
with ADD are capable of hyperfocus but only for things that
interest them, and find it difficult to concentrate on things
that do not interest them. This describes me well. I was
horrified as a child by the thought of having a 9-5 job and
doing the same thing every day. So it sounds like ADD/ADHD and
autism are not opposites and can exist in the same
person.[/quote]
According to WebMD: "Those with autism struggle to focus on
things that they don't like, such as reading a book or doing a
puzzle. And they may fixate on things that they do like, such as
playing with a particular toy. Kids with ADHD dislike and avoid
things they'll have to concentrate on."
Edit: My personal experience with people with ADHD tells me they
CAN focus on things they're interested in but it needs to be
"exciting, stimulating" things like FPS games and hunting
otherwise they're easily distracted.
Edit 2: Autism and ADHD are often diagnosed simultaneously but
they're easily confused, you can have "aspects" of both, if
you're screened for one condition you're gonna be screened for
others, and diagnoses are largely made from a "treatment"
standpoint.
I'm autistic and often didn't focus on schoolwork because I was
bored/daydreaming; not for inability to quietly focus on
something for hours, I'm too good at that. I'm also
hypersensitive to sensory stimuli (which both conditions
feature), and often "in my own world", both of which can create
difficulty paying attention to certain things. But I demand
peace and quiet, because I love quietly focusing; meditating,
writing, reading, drawing, gardening, for hours and hours. I
don't crave variety, change, multitasking, dopamine/adrenaline
rushes.
I feel like Aryanism and religion appeal to my autistic mind ;)

Everything we've been saying in regards to the difference
between Aryan and Turanian blood memory proven correct with one
meme. :D

Although the meme was undoubtedly created by a rightist, the
False Leftist agrees with it because it aligns with the values
of the False Left, who constantly complain about how
"capitalism" supposedly forces them to perform "mundane" tasks.

In other words, many rightists and false-leftists are lazy
pieces of ****, but you wouldn't know it judging from their
ramblings on the internet? :) ;D

To be perfectly honest, laziness is also a problem within the
True Left, though at least lazy True Leftists would not use the
above excuse.

I thought laziness was a lack of motivation, "unwillingness to
work", how can a True Leftist, acutely sensitive to the world's
problems, be unmotivated?
Also, it's noble to reject Capitalist slave-labour.
