The Mamdani Model: More Socialist Mayors to ComeBeware! The DSA will attempt to repeat Mamdani’s success in other Democrat strongholds.

Cognitive categorization is a form of a mental abstraction, that is normal in human communication, but isn't necessarily objectively true. It would be like saying shooting stars and other stars are all stars.... They're not! A shooting star is typically a free-flying tiny object, the size of a pea, or a grain of sand, which is nothing like an actual star. The common terms and vague understandings, are mere abstractions of thought.

A condition they share (less than 1% Muslim) with all of the former Warsaw Pact regions north of the former Ottoman empire and west of the Russian SSFR. (The other rest of the Soviet Union, including Russia, contains many regions with ethnic groups that were Muslim long before they were conquered by the Tsars. Ukraine would have a larger Muslim population, but Stalin ethnically cleansed the Tartars from Crimea to Siberia and then repopulated Crimea with Russians.)

Slovakia was never a part of the Soviet Union, and was never conquered by the Tsars. The "Warsaw Pact" is irrelevant, as my lineage was long gone by then.

...So your point is invalid. Chechs and Slovaks, as I mentioned earlier, fought alongside the Habsburgs, who were Austrians. Slovaks are more like them than the other, with closer genetics, culture and history to Austrians than with Eastern Europeans.

You need to read what I wrote more carefully. I was speaking of this region in white where there are less than 1% Muslims:

Which fits my description of *former* Warsaw Pact territories west of Russia and north of the old Ottoman empire.

The parts of the Soviet Union that are not white in that image had local Muslim ethnic groups *before* they were conquered by the Russian or Soviet empires, hence their successor states have non-negligible Muslim populations today. The Balkans were part of the Ottoman empire and have Muslim populations from that period. Western Europe's Muslims are recent immigrants (last century). Eastern (non-Balkan) Europe is generally too historically poor to attract a lot of immigrants.

That's not how DNA works.

AI Overview:

Transgenerational epigenetic effects are changes in gene expression that are passed down across generations without altering the underlying DNA sequence. These effects can include physiological and behavioral changes. The extent of these effects in mammals, particularly humans, is a subject of ongoing research and debate, partly because it is difficult to distinguish from genetic and cultural inheritance.

Potential effects:

• Behavioral: Research suggests that traumatic or positive experiences can be passed down, potentially affecting stress responses or cognitive abilities in offspring.

A mosquito flies like a blue heron flies, but they are different species entirely unrelated to one another. To say they're the same is taking abstract thinking too far, and reduces our ability to understand things properly.

It is a far better thing to know something than to look for for affirmation of your wrongness with A"I".

What your AI overview fails to mention that epigenetic effects last for at most 2-3 generations. So if there were any from fighting the Ottomans they were gone long before your immigrant ancestor's grandfather was born. (The epigenetic impacts of battle would be the biochemical responses to stress. Those don't tend to be beneficial to persons not under stress.)

I didn't realize Prague was historically poor, which is colored white on the map.

AI Overview

Transgenerational epigenetic effects in humans can persist for at least several generations, with some studies suggesting they can last for four or more generations.

• Potential for even longer effects: The persistence of these effects beyond five generations in humans is not yet fully understood, but the ongoing research suggests that it is a possibility, and the effects could be more frequent and long-lasting than previously thought.

You can stop demonstrating your lack of knowledge any time. The "AI" usage gives it away.

These things happened 10+ generations ago.

"Fighting Muslims" isn't the kind of thing that could leave some sort of memory to "fight muslims" again in the future.
