Wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recent_human_evolution

From Wiki:

>Contrary to popular belief, not only are humans still evolving, their evolution since the dawn of agriculture is faster than ever before.[1][2][3][4]

>It has been proposed that human culture acts as a selective force in human evolution and has accelerated it;[5] however, this is disputed.

It both of these are true, then what would that necessarily imply for non-agricultural populations, or for populations that only much more recently became agricultural? Can anyone tell me?

And I wonder who disputes bioculturalism...

I can't tell for sure, but it seems that you're mistakenly thinking that evolution yields better individuals, rather than ones that are simply better suited to reproduce in the circumstances of the time

long way of saying niggers can't farm

>>519403808
I have never said evolution produces "better" individuals and don't know where you're getting that from. I'm talking about bioculturalism, the interplay between genes and culture, and asking if anyone can tell me the answer.

If humans "evolved from monkeys" then why are there still monkeys?
>>
>>519404121
Because it was adaptive for some populations of primate to remain the proto-monkey ancestors of today's monkeys.

It means niggers are getting even dumberer

Soon the age of the Supernigger will be upon us

No one has said it, so wouldn't this mean that populations of human that have had agricultural civilization for a long time will be much more adapted to function within it than non-agricultural (historically) people like many types of SS African, Amerindian, Australian Aborigine, etc. The non-agricultural populations would be suited to hunter gatherer lifestyles primarily and would be very likely to be lower intelligence on average and higher narcissism, higher aggression, and higher impulsivity on average. Amongst other differences, too, obviously.

This is a very rubbishy statement despite the four citations and illusion of science wikipedia gives off.

The term evolution is broad and is mainly meant to refer to very long term adaptations, like giraffes growing tall necks. Even evolution is considered technically to be a theory. A scientist would never say "contrary to popular belief, evolution is happening faster than ever!", a proper wording would be something like: "some metrics show that the human genepool is undergoing adaptation at a faster rate than ever before".

But you don't measure evolution in one lifetime or even a few lifetimes. No decent scientist would say that. This article is written and maintained by idiots.

Its not evolution, its devolution into hyperconformist cattle.

Are traits that helped survive agricultural transition more valuable for living in modernity than hunter gatherer or herder traits?
>>
>>519404952
I'd say yes. And it's not just the agricultural transition but thousands of years of refinement by local culture since.

Lizard is unevolved for millions of years, oh look they do tricks now their culture changed they are evolving...

Unfroze a caveman I will teach him manners
