Holy shit. Most of the time I give you credit for trolling, but I don't see where there could possibly any humor in completely misinterpreting one of the most well known studies in psychology. This is intro to psychology 101 stuff.
Morality is an evolutionary strategy. That's game theory shit. This should be exactly your thing.

"...are a good place to start."

Morality is not an evolutionary strategy. Morality is how the strong trick the weak into not playing the numbers game to try to overtake them. Institutionalized monogamy is a good example.

The reason this bothers me is because you present these idiotic statements in a way that could be convincing to morons. Not related to this one, but your comments about economy and race... any halfwit xenophobe can look at what you're saying and identify with it. Even if you yourself have a better understanding than what you are willing to share, you are perpetuating ignorance.

There are entire volumes written about the evolution of ethics and morality. This is not controversial, or fringe. It is beyond biology 101 and the scope of a wikipedia article, so I'm not surprised that this is news to you.

It's not my phrasing or tone, but I would have responded similarly

Same, again.

There's truth in here that shouldn't be discarded.

There are entire volumes written about the Earth being flat as well. That doesn't make it true.

You're wrong, but I'm not interested in "debating" people on the Internet who don't understand enough of what they're talking about to realize when they're wrong.

Nah. You're interested in trolling.

Otherwise, saying spurious things which bear no relation to the sources you cite to back them up, then getting all petulant, insulting and condescending when anyone tries to actually understand anything you're saying - that would be the opposite of your asserted persona.

Either you are truly a man's man, enlightening and empowering men to not feel guilty for being awesome... or you're a whining little pissant whom can't actually stand behind his own BS.

You're right. I have no idea what I'm talking about at all. I don't know why you even respond to me.

I'm pretty sure that the volumes written about the evolution of ethics and morality do contain studies and facts, whereas the volumes written about the Earth being flat only contain fiction and mostly bullshit

I'm also pretty sure you understand you cannot compare the two, nor assume these are somehow equal

Sorry, I don't discuss ethics or morality with people in shithole countries.

[wufwugy]

I just imagine Trump drinking diet cokes with his buddies in a writing room spitballing new ideas. One of them says he knows how they could get the people to call themselves shitholers on national tv.

It's not that you don't. You can't. And of course you can't; get called out on your indefensible 'shithole' views, now you go on "LOL, I TROLS U" mode

Typical

When you made an appeal to authority the other day - right after a reductio ad hitlerum - I thought you were certainly trolling. An appeal to the authority of Lenin... I genuinely chuckled. I thought it was a joke.
I guess it wasn't. I honestly thought nobody could fit that many logical fallacy's into so few words without doing it on purpose.

I don't expect you to reply since you've already ignored my link to the most prominent examples, but ask yourself this question: Why do animals use alarm signals when the act of alarming others makes it more likely for the individual to fall prey? Hint: this is a numbers game and has nothing to do with any touchy-feely stuff.
