Jared Diamond implies that there are no significant genetic differences between ethnoregional groups that account for their different outcomes. As if subsaharan blacks could have been moved to Austria and they would have been the ones dominating Europe in the early 40s. Muh environmental factors! It's bluepilled, and the anthropology equivalent of what Fight Club is to literature.

Both characters are infinitely more alpha than Patrick Bateman. You wouldn't catch either of them being "on the verge of tears" because they might not get a good table at some trendy restaurant, or tailoring their thoughts and opinions to whatever would garner them the most social points.

That wasn't what I got from the book. I took it as more of an explanation of how different ethnicities evolved based on their environments which was quite interesting. Although he does seem to have some kind of agenda to push up third worlders with his thought experiments and was especially biased in that regard. Such as his treatment of domesticed animals. He never made thought experiments as to what might have happened if Euroasians only had the animals native to Africa. Who knows, white men could well have domesticated elephants if that's all they had. I honestly don't regret reading the book although I bought it secondhand so nothing went into the pocket of a kike.

TL;DR: It's saying that whites are only succesful because of environmental circumstances.

It denounces any spiritual or transcendent source of white peoples victories throughout the ages.
