Blackpill Why human brainsizes have been decreasing in the past 20k, and how modern populations give us a glimpse into the blackpilled past

I'll be basing it off this article, and shooting some blackpills at you: https://www.discovermagazine.com/th...ans-are-so-smart-why-are-our-brains-shrinking

According to the article, human brain sizes have been decreasing with the increase in higher population density.
This is most likely due to humans not needing to be as smart to survive anymore.
But we can use the blackpill to understand why this is inevitable, and how it explains the differences in IQ and brain sizes among different populations across the world.

First of all in evolution, whatever you don't need will be a waste to keep around due to it having an energetic cost, and will require more food.
As population centers got larger in the ancient past, the ones that gave up brain power to focus their energy on reproductive succees through better looks would have wiped out their competition.
We see this in modern times as well, as progeny number is correlated with a man's attractiveness while negatively correlated with his IQ, which is best predicted by brain size relative to body size.
Because of this, it is evolutionarily advantageous for someone to reallocate that energy from using it on brain power to using it on their facial asthetics.

So how can this explain some trends we find in modern humans?
Just look at the level of androgenization of different populations from around the world.
When we look at Africa, the males are very masculine and have the highest levels of tesoterone in the world.
However, they also have the smallest brain sizes on average, with it measuring around 1250cc, down from the ancient 1500s.
When we look at places with the least androgenization, the East Asians also have the biggest brains of all human populations, only down to 1420cc from 1500s.
This means there was smaller sexual selection for males in places like East Asia since they aren't so androgenized, and thus have bigger brains for people there.

Obviously this trend isn't universal due to other factors being a lot stronger. Curries for example are low iq and have small brains on average because they evolved in a region where food was scarce and they have poverty genetics to not die in case another famine hits.
Whites have middle level iq due to having only moderate sexual selection only, but have better facial asthetics because in the cold climate, all you could see after being covered up was the face, and thus why facial asthetics are the greatest in European populations but the testosterone levels are still in the middle. Even though Asians also lived in colder climates as well, they had low amounts of sexual selection as we have already established.

In conclusion, it's blackpills all the way down.
There is no theory that involves human sexual selection that can exist without the blackpill, because the blackpill is derived from observations of anmal sexual selection.
Humans are literally becoming lower and lower iq over the millenia because women are banging Chads instead of Newons or Teslas who aren't as attractive.

Brain sizes don't mean anything because IQ scores keep rising and women will increasingly use high IQ cumskin sperm donors because marriage is a dead institution.
This is the future of dual mating strategies: cuck will pay for foids onlyfans or through taxes for her to buy smart chad's genes.

Iq had been recently going up because of better nutrition, not evolution. But in the last few decades, IQ is back to going back down. Look up flynn effect reversal

As the article says, the EQ is the best measure of intelligence in animals, and is based on brain size and body size.
 
bigger brain doesnot equate to higher intelligence

Did you even read the article? It does for similar species of animals, and it is the best measurement of intelligence, when you take into account their body size. This measurement is called the EQ. If you look at people today, the best measure of their IQ is their EQ.

aboriginals have lowest population density yet has the smallest brain volume,while east Asians have high population density but have big brain volume
 
Globalism fucked with rices I don't understand how they are still liberal

"scandinavian qi has been decreasing" I call this jfl immigration

True if you mean abbos, but that part of the claim is straight from the article though. There’s always exceptions but it’s probably the general trend. Idk what the testosterone levels are in the abbos either, if you can find that we can compare it to my part of the theory where it negatively correlates to brain size due to female sexual selection.

Actually its the same case Iceland where there is almost no immigration into those viking communities.

The female brain weights less than a male brain, yet females can score just as well on IQ tests as males do. The question is what that decreased mass was responsible for. Most of our higher function is in the frontal lobe.
 
neanderthals and cro-magnons weren't smarter although they were physically larger with bigger cranial vaults
[UWSL]there's a robust correlation of grey matter to body size, and [/UWSL][UWSL]we are actually getting more neotenic/domesticated, and that's why brain size is shrinking, doesn't necessarily mean that is losing efficiency i.e actual IQ [/UWSL]

Females are also smaller, thus the body size to brain size ratio wouldn’t change much.

It says in the article that the brain size decrease is larger than the body size decrease. Also, the average cro-magnon was only 5’8”. The domestication part is also mentioned in the article. It’s actually an interesting read.
