I don’t agree with anything you both said… you can be an alpha type and not a psychopath… you can be an alpha type & not view yourself as an Apex predator… because as a predator you are just that… preying on the weak and that’s not the type of leadership we need in the world! Those people are dangerous! Those people are the Hitlers of the world! True psychopaths! You can be decisive and strong & not be a predator. Strong willed, smart, and adaptable people should lead but they don’t have to be cruel or prey on others… those are just shit psychos and if anyone claims to be a apex predator is a threat to society and the problem with the world! That mindset is how genocide & atrocities happen and that’s a dangerous precedent to set! So I disagree with all of what you both said

A lot of the psychopaths on the seal teams did not make it through selection process on their own merits. The Admirals helped them through selection so a lot of the psychopaths really aren’t and should not be there. This is why SEAL team six actually weeds out the psychopaths who can not be trusted; you can be a straight up stud and bad ass without being a psychopath from my observation of psychopaths when they are in a negative situation they run to mommy or daddy. They are not as Apex predacious as you think. The military actually looks for INTJs who are the balanced predator. Were psychopaths are an imbalanced toddler or more precisely a baby of about 1 to 2 months old.
I knew a former SEAL that dropped out because of poor leadership in the late '80's, and he was furious to tell me. It truly fucked him up and nutted up when I stupidly mentioned it, like a dumbass, around some big dogs. He was clearly traumatized.
Psychopaths don't have a side or a team. If you're useful to them and it suits them, they may keep you around for a while, but don't fool yourself into thinking you're on the same team. They're on their own team.

Apex predator? Thats the problem with my salespeople. They all want what they want, but the key to success in sales is listening and meeting the needs of your customer. Predatory behavior leads to bad blood and i want to sleep well at night
The people who care about other people and listen to what the customer wants, leave sales because of the type of salespeople you are speaking about above. I loved sales and made my first sale on my first call after 2.5 minutes on the phone, after being in the company just 30 minutes and not even meant to be talking to customers that day. My trainer just asked me if I'd like to try speaking to a customer. Many people on that team had not made a sale in one or two days. I didn't know the price or the details of the product. What I found incredible in sales though was the toxicity and bitterness of some other sales people. I was in the field for about 9 years but have since left. Too many toxic types like you mention above. The field is still in medieval times in my opinion. The wrong sort of people are hired for sales. It should always be about the customer first. Most sales people just want to dominate other sales people and dominate the customer.
Totally agree. Sales should be more about customer service, thoroughly understanding and then meeting their needs rather than customer manipulation we commonly see in that field of work. I also quit and am now a much happier gardener with my dogs, don’t miss the office psychos at all.

A lot to think about in this small clip. A year or two ago a friend asked me how much power I wanted. He's a clever guy and kept saying "it's good to be king." I recognized the Mel Brooks quote, but got the movie wrong. In the original reference, the lesson is that kings live in a world where MANY people are just waiting for the right moment to chop their heads off. Do I want power so badly that I want that risk, stress, and distraction? Would more of my life's goals be completed if I focused on production and let others take the glory? Can I find an apex predator who is mature enough to know that they should be helping me reach my potential to maximize my utility? On the other hand, should we allow the unarmed, apex predators to become so powerful, that the well-armed government appears to largely be a group of laughable fools to them? Isn't the system supposed to able to keep those apex predators in check? The thing that Chris didn't mention in that clip is their finding that once a population's number of sociopath/psychopath's gets above 3-5%, that society tends to collapse. What then is the impact on our society when people with high measures in these traits amass a great deal of power?
Apex predators are animals that hunt game. ... Successful people, on the other hand, create products and services that benefit others. When your customers/clients become your prey that's when you lose them. Being a predator is the opposite of running a successful business unless your business is being a mafia hitman. Honestly, Bustamante could not have ranked very high in the CIA.
the reverse role-model is a great way to make money in the stock market. If you have no idea what you are doing, do not go look for a guru to teach you what you are doing wrong. Do the opposite of what everyone else is doing because they are wrong 90% of the time. If Cramer says buy, you short.
they are good as being percieved as competent, and can handle conflict more easily. Thus they end up in leadership roles. Otherwise there is no direct relation between phyxhopathy and intelligence.
14:00 the rule, in math is never divide by zero, and not because it will lead to ruin, rather it is considered non-existence. Any integer divided by zero = error Multiplying by zero is analogous to chasing one’s own tail, which means leading to nowhere, including ruin.
and I’ll add to this, that I disagree with OP entirely regarding this “never multiply by zero”…sorry this rule doesn’t translate well in all realms. In life, you get what you focus on, regardless of polar charge. What this means, is if you focus on the things to avoid, the universe will grant you those very things. Destination insanity, as you try to adhere to some fluff material rule.
The idea that "people are tribal animals" and "need a tribal elder" does not obviate the idea that people are much more so collectively interdependent and largely empathetic creatures (read 98% NOT psychopaths) Also, "I'd rather have more psychopaths on my team than somebody else's" is one of the more myopic things I've ever heard on UA-cam. For real: a team of psychopaths is by definition not your bloody team - it's THEIRS. And the psychopaths on your team are all gathering around your bloody corpse to celebrate your demise because THAT's what psychopaths do... This is your "fantastic conclusion" lmfao... Also, yeah Navy SEALs have a lot of psychopaths in their ranks, but this may be at least in part a defect in their selection process. Apropos to my point other branches try to weed that element out because even among those modern Vikings that kind of behavior is actually counterproductive. SEALs and other operators like this have to operate under some kind of moral framework otherwise they're just animals. And we're not animals right? Right?? p.s. Prides don't vote. Lions are not all that succesful as a species frankly because the way they operate is by strength and violence alone. (They certainly inspire lame analogies to psychopathy though)
Bill Clinton thought like you did and disbanded HUMINT to spend money on SIGINT like Carnivore and PRISIM. The result was 9/11. Dick Cheyney changed back to HUMINT and torture. We haven't had a 9/11 since.
Many commandos become savages when exposed to combat for too long... The psychos , or Crazy Larry's are absolutely the last soldiers I'd ever want in my unit .
"A team of psychopaths is by definition not your bloody team - it's THEIRS." ...... you feel this way because you do not understand how to use the psychopaths as tools. Apparently they're smarter than you are, so they'd run your shit.
"You Want Cold Hard Killers When You Need Them" - yea absolutely right, problem is - when you don't need them, they don't give a F what you need. And - dangerous guys on you side? Really? C'mon, thing is - dangerous guys most time already have side, its not your side - its they own side...

I don't like books about psychopaths and murders and films about such things. In fact I don't understand why adult people go to the cinema and pay money to watch this kind of stuff when after they complain that the crime rate in their cities is increasing and that is so wrong... I mean yeah but you've just enjoyed watching some criminal on screen and you've applauded... The other day I made an exception though: I've bought a police novel titled "Im Auge des Zebras" author Vincent Kliesch because it was only 5 franks in the Kiosk. And hey, I am enjoying it, even though it is dark stuff, but makes me think a lot. For once I can make an exception and read it till the end. Maybe I am wrong and should read more this kind of novels but I am very careful with films and TV serials. In my house, none of that, only peace.
And people wonder why nothing progresses. I agree that it might be beneficial in some circumstances, but it shouldn't be the default, as these "Alpha" gurus (not Andrew) make it all out to be. We celebrate these types in movies and society because we've facilitated the environment for them to be celebrated. Remove it, and the whole facade and necessity go away. A precise, calculated, and decisive approach can be accomplished without the alpha mindset.

This is the dumbest thing I’ve heard in a long time. You can be a leader, you can care for people, you can build an influential system through building on good things. You don’t have to be ruthless psychopath to become a leader
These personality types are selected traits, biologically selected. If you read Richard Dawkins book the selfish gene you will see that in any group game theory dictates the number any group can sustain of these antisocial types. This is true all the way down to mud wasps. So its not just social creatures it's all creatures and it comes down to the selfish genes in each of us, using strategies to propagate.

With all do respect, psychopaths don’t have a team. And if you think they do…you’re probably food. The problem you’re stuck with, is when they’re not on some “mission” for you, what do you really think your life is going to look like when they’re roaming around your wife, your daughter, your workplace, your neighborhood. [edited] Maybe learn what a psychopath actually is, beyond the cliches…?
A lion does not eat lions. A lion is an apex predator of zebras or buffalo. This whole premise is invalid...specially when the "apex predators" consider their pray to be "humans"...everything that Andrew says about needing tribal leaders and elders is completely unrelated and not at all linked with "apex predators"... The confusion shown here cannot be simply a product of Andrew's lack of intellect or knowledge--he is a smart and knowledgeable person. It is likely this is just propaganda bullshit from the "predators" to keep their pray docile and thankful. After all, does the shepherd not keep his flock safe until he decides to eat? Sociopaths are useful when you want to rape, plunder, and pillage "the others". They do not prevent you from suffering the same fate. Sociopaths are at best parasites, not predators. "I'd rather have more psychopaths on my team than somebody else's"...I mean...the whole definition of being a psychopath is that they don't have a team because they are anti-social... Poor apex predators that don't get to kiss their children every night...they must really want to :(
Wow this subject was very disturbing, especially the part he said “I would rather have more psychopaths on my team then theirs” that is assuming your team is not the Nazi team. This is a very dysfunctional and troublesome way of thinking.

Perhaps but when their not being used to “ protect “ populations they often prove to be a direct threat to those who they swore to serve . We currently see former SF and police threatening the very people they served with skills they learned - essentially they’re socio and psychopaths fulfilling the niche cycle they’ve always filled , being used by the socially powerful
Listen, these two may be confusing psychopaths and sociopaths. Sociopaths look out for number one regardless of who else gets in the way; whereas psychopaths actually enjoy the infliction of pain and suffering on others for the sake of it: it's *fun* for them. You do NOT want psychos on your side because they will eventually turn on you. They are *far less predictable* than sociopaths in this regard.

Yes, especially considering that it’s the lionesses that stalk and hunts for their pride. I think a lioness having to hunt multiple times per week versus a lion who only engages in fights occasionally, is the tougher one.
We do not elect leaders, we elect representatives of our culture and beliefs not those imposed upon us by tyrants or would do us harm that as you see in con artists weak minded wanna be's like the current administration. George Washington, Paul Revere ,John Hancock and the rest risked everything, their lives, liberty, property that fought the ruling class and gave others that right to freedom and rule of law to be fair for all. There were fighters within but what are they fighting, what result that makes the difference. They didn't get paid to do someone else's bidding, lie deceive censor for another country or some nut with money to make more money and power for adversaries at our country's expense by the. printing spending the taxing for bribes. They fought against that. Those brave colonists Obama resented while his ancestors were being ruled or on a hut in Africa and compared to Europe but we we're nothing like Europe and it's monarchs but fighting against totalairian rule.thst would have hanged them. Only difference is they won but at a cost. They today lost their way and even fighters of the past see it. Those who just want to be dependent on government and will give up those freedoms or a illusion of security others fought for as one of the framers said deserve neither freedom or security because that's what will be the result. They warned us not to get involved with these other countries or their never ending wars. Here there are no rulers, only wanna be's and green eyed monsters on the side lines, they're supposed to representing the citizens not ruling over or against the citizens. The current government produces or builds nothing, the people do, they just consume from those who do. it's going to come crashing down because of them. Might not have Trump around to soften the blow this time so if not have your grab bag ready. people are already stretched too far because of these parasitic corrupt self absorbed idiots.

A lot to think about in this small clip. A year or two ago a friend asked me how much power I wanted. He's a clever guy and kept saying "it's good to be king." I recognized the Mel Brooks quote, but got the movie wrong. In the original reference, the lesson is that kings live in a world where MANY people are just waiting for the right moment to chop their heads off.
Do I want power so badly that I want that risk, stress, and distraction? Would more of my life's goals be completed if I focused on production and let others take the glory? Can I find an apex predator who is mature enough to know that they should be helping me reach my potential to maximize my utility?
On the other hand, should we allow the unarmed, apex predators to become so powerful, that the well-armed government appears to largely be a group of laughable fools to them? Isn't the system supposed to able to keep those apex predators in check? The thing that Chris didn't mention in that clip is their finding that once a population's number of sociopath/psychopath's gets above 3-5%, that society tends to collapse. What then is the impact on our society when people with high measures in these traits amass a great deal of power?
You are the system but hey you don't want to risk anything so......
What do you mean?@@mikolowiskamikolowiska4993
Apex predators are animals that hunt game. ... Successful people, on the other hand, create products and services that benefit others. When your customers/clients become your prey that's when you lose them. Being a predator is the opposite of running a successful business unless your business is being a mafia hitman.
Honestly, Bustamante could not have ranked very high in the CIA.
A business prey are the competitors. Business is war. You’re taking your competitor’s lunch
Whatever, “Predator” 🙄
"thank you for presenting it", what an intelligent, humble comment from such a knowledgeable individual.
All these alphas are all talk. Real ones move in silence.
That’s precisely what Andrew did for 7 years working as an operative for the CIA.

the reverse role-model is a great way to make money in the stock market. If you have no idea what you are doing, do not go look for a guru to teach you what you are doing wrong. Do the opposite of what everyone else is doing because they are wrong 90% of the time. If Cramer says buy, you short.
Psychopaths are often intelligent and successful people and often heads of big companies, politicians, etc. That's important to understand.
they are good as being percieved as competent, and can handle conflict more easily. Thus they end up in leadership roles.
Otherwise there is no direct relation between phyxhopathy and intelligence.
We forget that We are a Tribal '..animal' lol-) People; Made In HIS Image. Whether You hate It, HIM, or LOVE HIM, there 'It' Is .

On the flip side of the thought……how many men are asking incarcerated women murderers for marriage?
Figure out what you are bad at and don’t do that.
14:00 the rule, in math is never divide by zero, and not because it will lead to ruin, rather it is considered non-existence.
Any integer divided by zero = error
Multiplying by zero is analogous to chasing one’s own tail, which means leading to nowhere, including ruin.
and I’ll add to this, that I disagree with OP entirely regarding this “never multiply by zero”…sorry this rule doesn’t translate well in all realms.
In life, you get what you focus on, regardless of polar charge. What this means, is if you focus on the things to avoid, the universe will grant you those very things.
Destination insanity, as you try to adhere to some fluff material rule.
The idea that "people are tribal animals" and "need a tribal elder" does not obviate the idea that people are much more so collectively interdependent and largely empathetic creatures (read 98% NOT psychopaths) Also, "I'd rather have more psychopaths on my team than somebody else's" is one of the more myopic things I've ever heard on UA-cam. For real: a team of psychopaths is by definition not your bloody team - it's THEIRS. And the psychopaths on your team are all gathering around your bloody corpse to celebrate your demise because THAT's what psychopaths do... This is your "fantastic conclusion" lmfao...
Also, yeah Navy SEALs have a lot of psychopaths in their ranks, but this may be at least in part a defect in their selection process. Apropos to my point other branches try to weed that element out because even among those modern Vikings that kind of behavior is actually counterproductive. SEALs and other operators like this have to operate under some kind of moral framework otherwise they're just animals. And we're not animals right? Right?? p.s. Prides don't vote. Lions are not all that succesful as a species frankly because the way they operate is by strength and violence alone. (They certainly inspire lame analogies to psychopathy though)
Bill Clinton thought like you did and disbanded HUMINT to spend money on SIGINT like Carnivore and PRISIM. The result was 9/11. Dick Cheyney changed back to HUMINT and torture. We haven't had a 9/11 since.
Many commandos become savages when exposed to combat for too long... The psychos , or Crazy Larry's are absolutely the last soldiers I'd ever want in my unit .
"A team of psychopaths is by definition not your bloody team - it's THEIRS." ...... you feel this way because you do not understand how to use the psychopaths as tools. Apparently they're smarter than you are, so they'd run your shit.
Man, well said, thanks
hahahaha

I've noticed you've improved your thumbnail/marketing game recently Andrew, keep it up

Andrew Tait is not an alpha. 😅
If you spend your life glorifying monsters dont be surprised when they devour you.
We want predictable leadership that is not predatory! (face palm)
You can not scale a business without some predatory behavior. There are moral and immoral ways to do it though
@@jsnow6925ethical and unethical, there are peaceful predators who are capable but choose to cooperate because I'm sure everyone has done at least one RPG playthrough where the player kills all the questgiving NPCs, it becomes a lonely world.
@@borregoayudando1481 Not sure what that means to be honest lol. Ethical in the sense that they operate within the rules and laws of the free market. It is not always "nice" but legally and ethically in the best interest of the company to grow and survive. That sometimes means legally taking out a competitor or getting rid of staff.
@@jsnow6925 ethical is acting what you believe others should treat you and eachother and practicing what you preach. it's a higher standard than legal, but it keeps statis of peace better. If you don't act ruthless, less infighting, useless wars, and crabpotting will happen
"anything to get to the top" isnt efficient use of strength and talent in the world, that's actually why we need a strong leader, a veteran champion warrior of some kind, to keep everything in line.
but that's just wishful thinking, wish everyone could chase wins ethically so that the world can achieve more in the same time frame.
I don't like books about psychopaths and murders and films about such things. In fact I don't understand why adult people go to the cinema and pay money to watch this kind of stuff when after they complain that the crime rate in their cities is increasing and that is so wrong... I mean yeah but you've just enjoyed watching some criminal on screen and you've applauded... The other day I made an exception though: I've bought a police novel titled "Im Auge des Zebras" author Vincent Kliesch because it was only 5 franks in the Kiosk. And hey, I am enjoying it, even though it is dark stuff, but makes me think a lot. For once I can make an exception and read it till the end. Maybe I am wrong and should read more this kind of novels but I am very careful with films and TV serials. In my house, none of that, only peace.
I think the ex cia has a small statue of the girl who stood against the bull of wall street holds a bit of his soul.😮
Psychopaths are selfish and aren’t built for war because they don’t have any reason to be there fighting and being badass
And people wonder why nothing progresses. I agree that it might be beneficial in some circumstances, but it shouldn't be the default, as these "Alpha" gurus (not Andrew) make it all out to be.
We celebrate these types in movies and society because we've facilitated the environment for them to be celebrated. Remove it, and the whole facade and necessity go away.
A precise, calculated, and decisive approach can be accomplished without the alpha mindset.
You gotta distinguish between public vs. private actors. You start off talking about "ultra high net worth" folks who built from scratch, then start discussing leadership in the public sphere. 2 very different sets of incentives. wth
Psicopathic personalities is the right term.
Just a logical conclusion to a world which was never fair , fairness that's a silly notion of weakness. Use what you have under control and keep them sharp.
MUCH RASPECT AND GREAT TALK GUYS :)))
U don't need cold hearted psycopaths,,we need good men,ready to put priorities first and sacrifice,,men w ethics and morals,..when the wolves comes for the sheep,u dont just hire more wolves to fight wolves... the sheepdogs will step up to defend the sheep...not cold hearted psychopaths
This is the dumbest thing I’ve heard in a long time. You can be a leader, you can care for people, you can build an influential system through building on good things. You don’t have to be ruthless psychopath to become a leader
These personality types are selected traits, biologically selected. If you read Richard Dawkins book the selfish gene you will see that in any group game theory dictates the number any group can sustain of these antisocial types. This is true all the way down to mud wasps. So its not just social creatures it's all creatures and it comes down to the selfish genes in each of us, using strategies to propagate.

Failure is only acceptable if you learn from it.
If you try, and miss, and learn nothing. You are a fool.

Chris this camera angle is not so flattering. It needs to be raised a few inches.
What “predators” don’t understand, is that there are hunters for them too.

True, I don't like your answer. It's not a good thing when psychopaths run society. Are we saying greed is good? Greed is not good. Courage, drives, etc, do not require psychopaths. The view being expressed in this video is perverse.

Apex predator… I’ve never met one yet… only the odd cnt
I'm going to add some MBTI personality to this. It is hard being ENFP Male. Most ENFP Men are not Ruthless Apex Predators(Kevin Garnett is an exception).

hahaha you dont need an alpha to be a cold hard killer at all
"Do we want xyz leadership?" Nope, we don't want ANY leadership, we should be our own leaders and government. And maybe that "we" is just a few people, while it should be everyone...
With all do respect, psychopaths don’t have a team. And if you think they do…you’re probably food. The problem you’re stuck with, is when they’re not on some “mission” for you, what do you really think your life is going to look like when they’re roaming around your wife, your daughter, your workplace, your neighborhood. [edited]
Maybe learn what a psychopath actually is, beyond the cliches…?
A lion does not eat lions. A lion is an apex predator of zebras or buffalo. This whole premise is invalid...specially when the "apex predators" consider their pray to be "humans"...everything that Andrew says about needing tribal leaders and elders is completely unrelated and not at all linked with "apex predators"...
The confusion shown here cannot be simply a product of Andrew's lack of intellect or knowledge--he is a smart and knowledgeable person. It is likely this is just propaganda bullshit from the "predators" to keep their pray docile and thankful. After all, does the shepherd not keep his flock safe until he decides to eat?
Sociopaths are useful when you want to rape, plunder, and pillage "the others". They do not prevent you from suffering the same fate.
Sociopaths are at best parasites, not predators.
"I'd rather have more psychopaths on my team than somebody else's"...I mean...the whole definition of being a psychopath is that they don't have a team because they are anti-social...
Poor apex predators that don't get to kiss their children every night...they must really want to :(
Michael Jordan, Larry Bird would’ve made the best special forces operatives
Wow this subject was very disturbing, especially the part he said “I would rather have more psychopaths on my team then theirs” that is assuming your team is not the Nazi team. This is a very dysfunctional and troublesome way of thinking.
Psychopaths have teams ?
It takes all types to make the world go round
Tate in the thumbnail. He is a paragon of insecurity. Daddy wasn’t there and daddy didn’t care, so he spent the rest of his life trying to live up to that. He’s pathetic.
Only critique I have, is why include: COBRATWAT in the thumbnail? He is as soft as lambs ear and nothing more than an "English dandy". Not the type of person to ever get blood on his hands. It would upset his delicate manicure.
By the way I'm your customer
This makes me think of Troy when the kid says to Achilles. I wouldn’t want to fight him. And Achilles responds that’s why no one will remember your name.
Perhaps but when their not being used to
“ protect “ populations they often prove to be a direct threat to those who they swore to serve . We currently see former SF and police threatening the very people they served with skills they learned - essentially they’re socio and psychopaths fulfilling the niche cycle they’ve always filled , being used by the socially powerful
Nice try do you want an apex predator that is evil
Listen, these two may be confusing psychopaths and sociopaths.
Sociopaths look out for number one regardless of who else gets in the way; whereas psychopaths actually enjoy the infliction of pain and suffering on others for the sake of it: it's *fun* for them.
You do NOT want psychos on your side because they will eventually turn on you. They are *far less predictable* than sociopaths in this regard.
You asking questions and answering them before the guest does . Let answer first then you share your opinion

It's hard when the people you avoid being like are also ones you still love and want in your life. Any advice on that? Please give me something more than "boundaries "
I think emotional intelligence, or plain just intelligence, and the ability to be logical while not caring what others think is what helps rich people succeed. You do not need to be a psychopath

12:15 the man in the arena
Lion was a bad choice for the "there's only 1 who rules"
Yes, especially considering that it’s the lionesses that stalk and hunts for their pride. I think a lioness having to hunt multiple times per week versus a lion who only engages in fights occasionally, is the tougher one.
Here there are no rulers, they're representing the tribe or citizens not ruling over or against them.
We do not elect leaders, we elect representatives of our culture and beliefs not those imposed upon us by tyrants or would do us harm that as you see in con artists weak minded wanna be's like the current administration.
George Washington, Paul Revere ,John Hancock and the rest risked everything, their lives, liberty, property that fought the ruling class and gave others that right to freedom and rule of law to be fair for all. There were fighters within but what are they fighting, what result that makes the difference. They didn't get paid to do someone else's bidding, lie deceive censor for another country or some nut with money to make more money and power for adversaries at our country's expense by the. printing spending the taxing for bribes. They fought against that. Those brave colonists Obama resented while his ancestors were being ruled or on a hut in Africa and compared to Europe but we we're nothing like Europe and it's monarchs but fighting against totalairian rule.thst would have hanged them. Only difference is they won but at a cost. They today lost their way and even fighters of the past see it. Those who just want to be dependent on government and will give up those freedoms or a illusion of security others fought for as one of the framers said deserve neither freedom or security because that's what will be the result. They warned us not to get involved with these other countries or their never ending wars.
Here there are no rulers, only wanna be's and green eyed monsters on the side lines, they're supposed to representing the citizens not ruling over or against the citizens. The current government produces or builds nothing, the people do, they just consume from those who do. it's going to come crashing down because of them.
Might not have Trump around to soften the blow this time so if not have your grab bag ready. people are already stretched too far because of these parasitic corrupt self absorbed idiots. They're white shoe boy groupie snobs than never get their hands dirty not tribal but wanna be you will own nothing slave drivers.
Some of this is off the mark but mostly true to a degree.

But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity. Psalms 37:11
Since back in ancient times #barbarians were always invading and pillaging and generally unleashing their fury on Greeks and Romans. #Barbarians are #German and #Celtic peoples to the north includes #Brittan, and the #Hunnic and #Slavic peoples to the northeast. Today the share of people in the U.S. who identify as #White has been #declining, falling from 64% in 2010 to 58% in 2020, according to the new #census data. This trend stretches back several decades.
