Aha! So this is the origin of the Genetic Liberal!

Coevolution of farming and private property during the early Holocene

The advent of farming around 12 millennia ago was a cultural as well as technological revolution, requiring a new system of property rights. Among mobile hunter–gatherers during the late Pleistocene, food was almost certainly widely shared as it was acquired. If a harvested crop or the meat of a domesticated animal were to have been distributed to other group members, a late Pleistocene would-be farmer would have had little incentive to engage in the required investments in clearing, cultivation, animal tending, and storage. However, the new property rights that farming required—secure individual claims to the products of one’s labor—were infeasible because most of the mobile and dispersed resources of a forager economy could not cost-effectively be delimited and defended. The resulting chicken-and-egg puzzle might be resolved if farming had been much more productive than foraging, but initially it was not. Our model and simulations explain how, despite being an unlikely event, farming and a new system of farming-friendly property rights nonetheless jointly emerged when they did. This Holocene revolution was not sparked by a superior technology. It occurred because possession of the wealth of farmers—crops, dwellings, and animals—could be unambiguously demarcated and defended. This facilitated the spread of new property rights that were advantageous to the groups adopting them. Our results thus challenge unicausal models of historical dynamics driven by advances in technology, population pressure, or other exogenous changes. Our approach may be applied to other technological and institutional revolutions such as the 18th- and 19th-century industrial revolution and the information revolution today.

The evidence that Political beliefs may be Genetic.

Is Politics Partly Guided By Our Genes? : The Intersection

As we identified four regions of interest, and one that meets the strictest criteria, our findings are consistent with what might be expected if the genetic component of variation in Conservatism-Liberalism resembles any other polygenic human trait, for which the genetic resemblance between relatives can only be resolved reliably into the effects of a large number of genes with small effects that typically cannot be identified by linkage.

In other words, no gene is acting directly to determine our political views–there is no “liberal” or “conservative” gene–but there might be a combination of genes acting together that somehow predispose us to have particular politics, presumably through their role in influencing our brains and thus our personalities or social behaviors. Indeed, the most promising gene regions turned up in the study all involved “NMDA and glutamate related receptors.” The authors couldn’t resist speculating here:

The disease of the Genetic Liberal is no doubt the product of Evolution. Well, refusal to Evolve.

See, The Neolithic era brought with it a change in the human behavior. It selected for those with long-term time preferences and a Hard-working nature. It selected for "conservative genes". This is why Conservatives occupy the rural areas of America and many other countries. It also selected for people who could understand the abstract concept of Property rights.


However, there were holdouts. The ancient raider parties, the thieves and ancient gangs the Genetic Conservatives had to band together to defend are the descendants of today's liberals. This is why Liberals have no problem with crime and murder so long has it's in the name of economic equality and getting back at the man. The Man is in essence the Neolithic Humans that Paleohumans are sworn to defeat.

This is why Races that are by-in-large Paleohuman descendants are largely aligned with liberals.

He needs some mood-stabilizing drugs or something. There are rare moments when he can talk about economics dryly and without emotion and hyperbole, and hard sciences, and religion and actually make decent points and not sound like a raving lunatic.

naw, for sure. Hes a smart guy, hes just very troubled, and that marginalizes his ability to think and reason in fundamentally significant ways. Its sad. Mental illness is very real.
