Interesting how constant inbreed can lead to impotence (in Charles II's case), it's like nature telling the family tree "look, this is as far as you can go"
@@okaynevermind5130 A feedback loop is a an input/output system in which the result/output is "fed back" as input. A negative feedback loop has a "negative" output which is fed back thereby reducing the input, this eventually results in the input being driven to zero. Contrast this with a "positive" feedback loop where the positive result/output drives the input towards infinity.
My parents are related, and we only found out when I was 15 after me getting genetic testing for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I tested positive for a type that is extremely rare, there’s ~9 documented cases in the world. When we found this out, my parents got tested because the likelihood of unrelated people both being carriers of the mutation and having a kid who has it, is extremely low. Turns out my great grandfather had a mistress who he had five kids with. One being my dad’s mom, while my mom’s mom was from the marriage he originally had. Confusing I know. They never met, never even knew each other existed, but growing up in a small community it was bound that they would meet eventually. And now I’m here! I don’t blame my parents, they didn’t know. Nobody knew. We only found out about the infidelity after my parents got ancestry testing. It’s wild

My parents are related, and there really is an unwarranted stigma attached to it. I mean Im perfectly healthy, I have all 12 fingers with the relevant webbing.
My mother’s family is from Hazard County KY. (She was born in 1940) She has told the story of being 10-12 years old and being in the General Store in Heinman, KY and one of the “Blue People” coming in to purchase supplies. My Grandmother told her not to stare, and as she recalled the man was a dusty light blue shade. She told that story for years and until the internet nobody really believed it. She is from a family of 9 children and she is the only one that ever saw one of the Blue People.
Your skin can turn blue from ingesting colloidal silver. Maybe those blue people were exposed or used it if they were sick? It’s got antibacterial properties.
B Martinez the banjo riff is from the film Deliverance 😂 it’s a film about inbreds in the south US. Watch the clip on TH-cam when the kid starts playing the banjo it’s fucking funny the kid looks like his mother and father were brother and sister 😂
I laughed way too hard at the banjo sound for Ancient Egypt. It’s like, that’s so removed from their culture- could you imagine going back in time and speaking to the Pharoh and going, “Oh man, eshhh, you guys are a little .... -Banjo sound- aren’t you?” And they’re just like ... what even is that?
I also turned into a blue person for a short time, although I have NO relation to the family of Blue People. Acute Methemoglobinemia (meaning not genetic) can also be caused by certain medications, such as local anesthetics. I found out the hard way that I am apparently very sensitive to these drugs and was treated with IV Methylene Blue as well. It happened over the course or an hour or two after a procedure I had & I started to turn blue and lose consciousness. It was extremely scary for both me and my parents. Once the toxicologist figured out what was wrong with me, they brought in all the medical students because it was such a rare thing to get to see in person. My blood was only carrying about 50% of the normal amount of oxygen. Methemoglobinemia basically makes your red blood cells less “sticky” so they’re not able to bind with and carry oxygen molecules as they normally would. The really interesting part that no one warned me about is that when you inject something dark blue into your veins, the first time you pee after that, it’s dark green! So I thought I was dying all over again. Funny now, not so funny back then! It took several days for that to work it’s way out of my system but the Methylene Blue literally saved my life and worked very quickly once they figured it out. That part took hours.
Its so interesting to hear about the inbreeding in the Habsburg dynasty as an austrian. I learned the history of the habsburgs petty precisely, learned all about the spanish habsburgs and know all those people you mentioned. But not a SINGLE time have I heard about all the priblems before. I guess austrians just want to make their history better but it really blew my mind i didnt learn about any of this.
And saddest shit is that people never believe that dogs can live longer than 8y in some cases. While the non bred dogs are very long lived for animal if this size i think.
I belong to a large extended family and at one point my cousin asked me out. Now this guy was a sixth cousin, related by marriage, no shared dna whatsoever. But I still told him no bc I didn't want to be able to say that I'd met my husband at our family reunion lol.
You realize a 6th cousin is a very distant relative. That would be about the same amount of relation as any random person walking the street. You've probably talked to some stranger more closely related, and didn't even know it.
Also from a small town, about 1000 people. Took Tae-Kwon-Do the next town over, bigger, about 5k people. In middle school I had my first proper girlfriend, we were 12/13 age and in the same class at the studio. That summer, I went to a cousin's birthday party and she was there. It was her cousin too, and not from the other side of the family by marriage. Needless to say, we opted to just be friends after that. I never dated again until I went to college and could guarantee I wasn't related to her.
I would like to clarify that he is putting the banjo music in to reference the movie "Deliverance". He is not equating country music to inbreeding. So if you think that then you are mistaken. Don't be a bigot. I just picture you chewing on an eraser laughing like Chunk from the Goonies saying " HUHUHHUHUHUHHU Country music HUHUHUHUHU" like an idiot.
I was in Vienna.... and swear to god... every time I saw a Habsurg something I could hear the banjo bit in my mind... thank you very much.... you made my trip.
is not called blue blood for nothing , is a reasson for that . just investigate for your own the bloodcircles (it s not lines in "royal" fammiallys over europe and asia , its a circles).
@@daniloodnedica6841It's called "blue blood" (from French, "sacré bleu") because in very old times, the _only_ known blue pigment (to dye things) was *_*extremely*_* expensive, as it was extracted from this particular small sea snail that lives in the Mediterranean (the area near modern Israel, iirc); they had to dive after it, and only got tiny amounts from each. The only people who could even dream of affording it were royals. And so it became that the colour blue (in garments, etc.) was associated with royalty - the _royal bloodlines._ Hence, "blue blood." It has nothing to do with inbreeding or methemoglobinemia (blue skin). In fact, the association goes far further back; you also see that the Roman emperors liked to have their household and personal guards be clad in blue (or purple, which is ofc a mix).
Omg, I lived in Germany and had the same reaction, breaking into fits of giggles that perplexed many a member of the small village we lived in. I think they really must have thought to themselves, "man those Americans are WEIRD."
Two additions: 1) Hitler's childhood village was isolated and deeply inbred... which might explain A LOT about his subsequent life. 2) The last Russian tsar's son had hemophilia, which came from generations of inbreeding with other European royals.
Hemophilia is *not* related to inbreeding. It's a sex-linked trait, meaning men _cannot_ be carriers for the disease. Either they have hemophilia themselves, or its not in their genes at all. The last tsarevich, Alexei, inherited it _only_ from his mother.
It wasn't just his village. Hitler's family was very inbred as well. Hitler's mother called his father "uncle". Hitler himself had a relationship with his niece that had incestuous connotations.
Ok i think i figured it out: His grandson married his half-sister (which is already incest), and it makes him half-brother in-law of this guy, they have a kid and years later this guy marries the child (which is kinda weird based on the age difference), so his grandson becomes his father in-law
Define : "nature", is this the god worshipped by pantheists/pagans??? Did you get a recording of it speaking to you? Have you actually proved via the scientific method that "incest" is actually what caused the sterility and NOT some other of the bajillion potential variables one is affected by in ones lifetime? 😎
"The grocery store." Yep, my home town too. Only one paved road that went into and out of town. Before asking someone out we had to ask what the names of their great grand parents are. I'm not joking.
"[...] Claiming that he didn't have a drop of blood in his body, his head was full of water, and his testicles were black." Man, old time roasts were vicious 😭😂.
My nephew has a sister, both share the same bio dad but different mothers. So if like marry that girl (because I'm nor relate to her) I would be the uncle /brother in law of my nephew. Shit. I'm a sick weirdo
We had a family JUST like that, at the grocery store I worked at. They went to our high school, & lower. And they are VERY nice people. But, it seemed as if both parents had some mental deficiencies, that also caused some physical deformities. I mean all of this, with the utmost respect. Because they are VERY sweet people, who just got a bad shake or dealt a rough hand. The daughter is my age, & I am friends with her on FB. She couldn’t BE a nicer person, & you KNOW she heard hell her whole life. Her younger brother was the worst, & ever could speak…he could only grunt & moan. I always felt so bad for them. They had to walk everywhere, & had no car. So, they had to walk blocks to the grocery store, which the son also had a waking issue. Then, shop, & then walk home. I always wanted to give them a ride home, when working there in high school. But, I couldn’t leave my job, to do it. So, I have a similar experience, in my life. This was the late-90s, when I was a Junior & Senior, in HS. We just…we didn’t make fun of them, or crack on them, even behind their backs. People still hear those things, at some point. But, also treated them like human beings, with the respect deserved for being such. I was bullied, too. So, I can understand that side. I can’t imagine what they went through, in a cruel world of the late-90s. Anyway….just had to share that. Lol!
fucking metal ❤️🔥 . I couldn't agree more with this approach. it's amazing what people bully and judge just because they are different or because they want to be seen as funny and cool (as if bullying others is funny OR cool... )... or because they get bullied by their parents at home and finding someone else to bully gives them a sliver of relief from feeling like scum.... I enjoy standing up for others too...
@@lilithjesus7718 Man! Right back at ya! Fucking Metal! (I’m also a big metal-head. My profile pic here is actually an artwork of my own, from my college days. I’m a Graphic Designer, by trade. Anyway…just wanted to add our commonality there, as well! Lol!) Thank you very much, for your kind words. I do greatly appreciate it! I mean that honestly & genuinely. I tell people all the time that MetalHeads are actually some of the nicest, most respectful, & most caring, big-hearted people you will ever meet! As much as I ‘despise’ Hippies, I do call us “Metal Hippes”; only so those who are NOT like me or us can get a better understanding, of who we are as a whole or as a group & culture. What many of them don’t understand is …yeah, we may beat the shit out of each other in a Mosh Pit. But, it’s not malicious whatsoever. It’s just getting out pent-up aggression & anger. AFTERWARDs, when the song is over, we all shake hands & hug, & tell each other “Good work! Much respect, brother/sister! I hope all is well, with you!” Seriously. Yeah, you have your bad apples. But, we also take care of it in our own way, & get them the fuck out of there! Lol! Anyway….just wanted to add that in there. My apologies it has made this a tad lengthy! I hope I’m not _too_ long-winded, & you are able to complete this Reply Comment…because I truly appreciate & respect the words you gave to me there. Honestly! I respect that SO much. Ya see, I am going back to school to get my Masters in Psychology (I’m currently 41-years old, & have been a professional Graphic Designer ever since I graduated with my FIRST Bachelors Degree, in Fine Arts with an Emphasis/Focus on Graphic Design (that’s the official title, of my degree. Lol!) I want to help people! I wasn’t just bullied, I have Bipolar Disorder AND (get this) I was originally diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, at the same time (when I was 25-years old). However, just recently that changed. More & more things began coming out of me, & it was changed to “Childhood PTSD Caused by Mental, Emotional, and Religious &/or Spiritual Child Abuse). So, what you said about bullies being bullied at HOME…? Yup! I was bullied both places. But, you’re absolutely RIGHT. And I have preached this to others, for YEARS. In fact, I JUST told my new counselor at the clinic I am currently attending (and about to ween off the medications, & get my life back ENTIRELY from my life of addiction! I’m so excited!)…I told him that I’ve ALWAYS made sure people know to NOT forget about the bully themselves or to throw them away. Don’t just automatically persecute & ridicule the bully. Especially if they are a kid or young themselves…which includes High School & even College-aged kids. I make sure people understand it’s a Mental Health thing, & that a good deal (if not overwhelming MAJORITY) of school bullies are ALSO bullied THEMSELVES, and done so at HOME by their own parent(s)! So, I am SO happy to see someone ELSE has this exact same concept & idea, as me. It sound like you & I are VERY like-minded, in a lot of ways. I LOVE it!!!!!! When I was a Junior in High School, I finally caught-up in physical size, with everyone else. Lol! It was baaaaaad news, for all the bullies, at THAT point. Lol! YEARS (my entire life) of being bullied at home AND at school made me physically AND mentally tough. The bullies didn’t know what HIT them, when I began fighting back. THEN…me & a couple/few other guys started taking up for others bullied…ESPECIALLY those in the “Learning Deficient” students/kids. We’d grab the bully and PUBLICLY bitch slap them across the face…not to physically hurt them. It did hurt. But, it’s not like it was the WORST pain. We wanted to humble them, & humiliate them in front of ppl so they knew what it felt like. Now…at THAT time (1997-2000), I DIDN’T have the mindset of “help the bully, TOO”. We weren’t as far along in Psychology & Mental Health, at that time; nor was I myself. But, still…MOST of the “bullies” we took down were ones we KNOW weren’t bullied at home. A lot of them were the arrogant & narcissistic rich kids. My wife was a bully back then, in fact. Why? Well, her step-dad (who is her Dad really. He’s been there for her & raised her since she 3-years old…*40* years ago! Lol!) was an alcoholic & she watched him physically BEAT her mother growing up. So, yeah. It effected her. NOW..? Completely different story, & I had already moved on my personal therapy. So, I was able to help HET. She’d never had that before. Anyway…I’ve rambled enough. I’m sorry, for that. I do truly hope you’ve been able to make it through all, of this. If so, I greatly appreciate that & you’re a TROOPER! Thank you! And if NOT - if you DIDN’T make it all the way through - that’s okay, too. I completely understand. I’m currently unmedicated due to us losing our jobs last November, losing health insurance, & no longer Abel to afford the treatment & meds right now. So, the “Racing Thoughts” side effect or symptom of Bipolar Disorder causes me to be a bit wordy, & kinda jump around. So, I hope I have not done that TOO much, & this is still coherently written. Lol! Really I just wanted to say it is AWESOME, to see ppl have the same type of mindset as my wife & I. And not just mindset, but LITERALLY having the exact same ‘idea(s)’ or ‘thoughts’ (referring to the bully being bullied at home part), because it’s NOT something everyone knows or realizes. In FACT, I’ve NEVER had a SINGLE person tell me that same thing, like you just did. So, I absolutely LOVE it, to FINALLY see someone else who not knit GETS it, but is on the frontlines with me on this & all on their own. I didn’t HAVE to ‘teach’ then or help them come to this realization, for te very FIRST time. You ALREADY did it! And I just…I just can’t put Into words &/or tell you just how AWESOME that is, & how HAPPY that makes me. It’s 7:50 am my time right now, & you’ve already made my day! Thank you!!! (And my deepest apologies, again; for this being so lengthy. I do get made fun of and bullied a LOT, for that…and do so to this very DAY! People all the TIME making fun of me on my personal FB & in-person. It hurts…but…yeah. I can’t help it. My brain just operates a bit differently than most people’s, so I also have a slightly ‘different’ way of speaking & communicating. I TRY to change it, but I can’t. I’ve failed, at every attempt. Even when I THINK I’m getting somewhere, NOPE! BOOM! I’m hit with it again. So, yeah. I’ll stop now. I’m sorry )
Three of Rameses the Great's Six Royal Wives were his daughters. I wasn't that surprised at all the brothers sister marriages (thanks for the spoilers Ptolemies), but wow the father daughter marriages during the early and middle kingdoms... some things I wish I could unlearn. 😨
Joe, you can't tell me 'if you REALLY need to know more...' and not realise that it could sent me down an unpleasant rabbit hole about the "Colts" that I couldn't end until I'd found out the real names (of the adults) and saw what some of the family members were like. It left me with the awful feeling that only the youngest victims likely have a chance to break free; the older ones (who are also unfortunately perpetrators of abuse towards younger relatives themselves) seem so enmeshed with the family, what they've always known, and the 'us against them' etc., in addition to the very apparent cognitive delays caused by consanguinity, abuse and neglect.
You can do an entire video about Iceland with this haha 😂 There are only 300,000 people there, and their number one dating app is an app called “Bump”, where two people “Bump” their phones together, and it gives you your family history to tell you whether or not you’re related lmao 😂 - First cousins - HELL no - Second cousins - “We can never tell anyone about this” - Third cousins - “Well, it was a good night, but we probably shouldn’t do that again” - Fourth Cousins - “So, I’ll see you next week?” 👍 😂
I grew up in an area of Pennsylvania where this is a real problem, but it's a dirty secret people don't really talk about. THAT is the problem. At least in Iceland they discuss it, so it can be addressed. There were two families in my town that were all inbred and all of them were in "special" classes. In fact, an insult was to call someone their last name, or a slur based on their name. The funny thing is they were an OLD OLD family, and owned a huge amount of land, even though none of them had educations of jobs. They wouldn't sell their land, so it was a super weird situation. They lived in poverty sitting on million dollars worth of land (today at least). Broken downs cars and appliances all over their yards, houses falling apart, and crazy hand me down clothing. Kinda sad.
@@katybug6572 Haha what can you do when you live in a country that has a population that is roughly 0.000000043% of Kim Kardashian’s Twitter followers?! 🤷🏻♂️😆 If you find someone you love, you’re pretty much stickin with them for life, and there is practically no adultery in Iceland, because the only other people there are to cheat with are likely even closer relatives of who you’re with lmao 😂
Well, technically they did, to most classical race categorize. They were a "subspecies" of the "Caucasian race." Until assuming no more practice inbreeding they were "genocided" by breeding outside of their closed group.
It would have been so good if you'd had an orchestral version of that hillbilly jingle for when you were talking about European royalty, and an Egyptian sounding version when talking about the Pharaohs.
It's also interesting to see that quite a few of the better known pharaohs were actually the children of secondary wives like Thutmosis III for example...
+ dude, I can tell you were smoking some good shyte to come up with that analogy for the music. How about, a hillbilly whistle whenever he starts and pauses between intro. Inbreed with blue eyes, blond hair. Peggy Sue's, Barbara Ann's, and Betty Jean's of the upper USA. Plus, Those hills have three eyes...a pair of dungerees, and a corn cob pipe to smoke your good weed in.. ha ha ha! Gotcha huh?
European royalty are not related to "hillbillies". The term hillbilly is for the men who fought with King William 111, King Billy at the Battle Of The Boyne.
Yeah that was one of the bigger surprises I had during an undergrad anthropology course. Most societies up until the past 100-200 years would mate with their first and second cousins. It kind of makes sense as it isn't your immediate family and if you're living in a relatively small village in, say, 500 BC Germania, it's distant enough to not be super weird but close enough to solidify your clan's strength.
I’ve seen a member of the Fugate family. He served in the US Military and was at a local restaurant on Veterans Day for several years. His skin was a definite blue, about the shade of the wall behind you, and his hair was snow white. He was a striking looking man for sure.
@@fart63 I sincerely hope that you’re a 12 year old boy because, if you’re an adult, you should be ashamed of yourself. He isn’t a smurf. He’s a man. A man who served his country with honor and who was probably given a lot of unnecessary grief by ignorant people like you throughout his life.
@@sfkarch Frankly I don’t care too much if you found it funny or not. It wasn’t meant to be the most hilarious thing on the planet. How long have you been using the internet that you lose your head at such an observational basic joke
Yes I do have an issue with the damaged lives that are still being born into this world due to inbreeding. Unsubstantiated? I'm sure you know how to use a search engine ... Joe has turned off links on his channel, I already tried providing a few.
The reason that people traditionally stick their pinky out when they're drinking tea is because the inbreeding of royalty caused them to have pinkies that were noticeably shorter than others. So people started sticking their pinkies out to show everyone that they were of royal descent.
I always remember that quotation by Durant and Durant which said that Charles II of Spain was, "...always on the verge of death but repeatedly baffling Christendom by continuing to live." If he is not the poster child for the ills of incest, then I don't know who is!
As a teenager I got interested in learning about my large pool of relatives. I was initially shocked to learn there were multiple lines to a few of them. When I traced it all out, I was relieved to verify there were no incestuous relationships, just two separate families with interlaced connections. Because some of my goofy cousins had me wondering…
FOLLOW THE SCIENCE. It shows the mating between 3rd cousins is the most productive. It produces more babies that reach adulthood than any other coupling .
@@electrictroy2010 technically yes. Make sure enough DNA to ensure no genetic incompatibility, while not sharing so much that it causes negative recessive traits to express themselves, but I would also argue that this isn't particularly relevant. In a world with modern medicine and the increasing ability to analyze and manipulate genomes, this kind of planning just simply isn't required. They're also probably isn't as much of a stigma around 3rd and 4th cousins, because a lot of people don't even know their third and fourth cousins due to being so far removed. The stigma is mostly around sibling, parent, and first and second cousin marriages. I'm also very concerned why you seem so defensive of inbreeding, even if you're a specific scenario isn't that bad. Like, you posted this exact comment dozens of times on a years old video.
3:53 It’s also said that she had a blue house, with a blue little window, and a blue Corvette, and everything was blue for her. And herself, and everybody around ‘cause she ain't got nobody to listen.
Good information. My mother and her younger sister both had children by first cousins. Both are physically "normal" but both have psychological and emotional issues. The "family" to this day, refuse to accept knowledge of the close family ties. Remains a barrier to conversation to this day
My half-aunt had a daughter with her half-brother. They supposedly didn't know that they were related at the time. Their daughter has some mental problems, but a lot of it might be a result of the way that she was raised.

Interesting little factoid: The Delta32 gene if you have only one you'd get the Bubonic plague but heal & survive acquiring immunity, but people that had double Delta 32 can't get infected, they also can't get AIDS either (re AIDS not sure if it's single or requires having double Delta32 again). I wonder if it also applies to COVID?
@The Saxon I mean that having our son marry his step sister is weird to US, to me and my wife. It may not be weird historically. Yes, first cousins marrying is common. Queen Victoria married her first cousin, Albert.

There is a town outside of Oklahoma City that's allegedly full of inbred people. I'm very scared to look into it, and you're a very nice person to not want to re-enact Flowers In The Attic. I want that memory scrubbed from my brain.
Anime Games Wrastling in all seriousness tho, that was literally the best thing that could have ever possibly happened. The more inbred and physiologically deformed the new rulers became, the more stupid wars and avoidable plagues/disasters would have come to place. Eventually, I’m sure that one royal family would have become so inbred (father-daughter, brother-sister, etc.) that all their attempts at creating an heir to the throne would be at 100% stillborn rate, but they wouldn’t understand it, so they’d keep on fucking their children and siblings because it was literally the only thing they were ever born to do.
@I'm nobody ::: I laughed longer than I should have at that! Charles' sister, who was spared the genetic deformities, went on to marry an uncle and died in childbirth.
@@Wysiwyg43 Yep Margarita Teresa was about as normal as you can get coming from a uncle-niece marriage. Not to say she was completely spared, she was rather small and was sickly. And blamed Jews for the early demises of her children (definitely didn't have anything to do with her marrying her own uncle, like mother like daughter).
My Dad was able to go into Allentown because he was the funeral director. My mom helped woman give birth. I went to school with the Allens. Thank God for schooling so many could have meals more often.

FYI: if there’s a very occasional cousin marriage in a family, you’ll be just fine. But when you have multiple relatives marrying each other over several generations? Problem.
When I was a teenager My family moved from California to a small town in Tennessee. It was a huge culture shock. I got a job working at one of the few restaurants in town. At some point in their lives everyone in town worked at this restaurant or at the grocery store next store. My boss’s daughter, aunt, son, brothers, husband, mother, and cousins all worked at the restaurant over the years and I worked with a lot of them. I was working with the boss’s daughter one day and asked why her uncle and mother had the same last name since my boss was married. Ok. So we will call the boss Amy. Amy married a guy named Bob. Bob’s Dad married Amy’s Mom. Their parents then had a couple kids together. So they all had the same last name. So my boss’s brother was also her brother in law, and her mother was also her mother in law. Her brothers were her kids double uncles because they were brothers to both the father and the mother. Her father was her father in law and her husband was also her brother...lol
Just add a question at the end. It'll be GMAT aptitude question for blood relationship puzzle. Probably it'd be regarded as hardest question in history of exam. Now, yes..... lol...
reminds me of when my dad was trying to date my long term boyfriend's mom. I was not gonna have it, it's been a couple years but I'm still mad at him for not having appropriate boundaries. Luckily my boyfriends mom said she'd never do that to us thank god. It just seems messed up and invasive to my personal life.
I think Queen Elizabeth II let Commoners marry into that family because they really needed to shore up that situation. Queen Victoria & her first cousin get married, she had a million kids and blamed them for "looking like frogs" not French people , literal frogs. Lol
I had a really good explanation of how the genetics break down during incestual relationships. And it was this: You take a picture and photocopy it. It is a really good copy of the original, but there are small flaws. Mostly not noticed. Then, you take the copy and make a copy of the first copy. Now there's more flaws, then you take the new copy and make a photocopy of that one. Each subsequent copy is more and more degraded. It made a lot of sense to me when explained that way lol
It is more like you want meat and salad for dinner but with inbreeding you get either double meat or double salad. Someone may say that meat is more expensive and more valuable, other may be a vegetarian and preffer double salad, but for the most people the best option would be to have both.
My Dad grew up in rural New Jersey and rode his dirt bike in the hills a lot. The town he had to ride through to get home was called Shaugerville. The people were super aggressive to outsiders and if you attempted to ride your bike through the town (you had to turn it off and walk it through) they would shoot you with shotgun shells filled with rock salt. Then you had to take a bath until the salt dissolved. But they were super inbred and were known as the "Jackson Whites." He told me they all had clear hair cleft lips.

Negative feedback loop basically.
@@firstnamelastname-uw6vq could you please explain ? In curious :O
@@okaynevermind5130 A feedback loop is a an input/output system in which the result/output is "fed back" as input. A negative feedback loop has a "negative" output which is fed back thereby reducing the input, this eventually results in the input being driven to zero. Contrast this with a "positive" feedback loop where the positive result/output drives the input towards infinity.
Literally the family tree was trying to stop them.
My parents are related, and we only found out when I was 15 after me getting genetic testing for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I tested positive for a type that is extremely rare, there’s ~9 documented cases in the world. When we found this out, my parents got tested because the likelihood of unrelated people both being carriers of the mutation and having a kid who has it, is extremely low. Turns out my great grandfather had a mistress who he had five kids with. One being my dad’s mom, while my mom’s mom was from the marriage he originally had. Confusing I know. They never met, never even knew each other existed, but growing up in a small community it was bound that they would meet eventually. And now I’m here! I don’t blame my parents, they didn’t know. Nobody knew. We only found out about the infidelity after my parents got ancestry testing. It’s wild

My mother’s family is from Hazard County KY. (She was born in 1940) She has told the story of being 10-12 years old and being in the General Store in Heinman, KY and one of the “Blue People” coming in to purchase supplies. My Grandmother told her not to stare, and as she recalled the man was a dusty light blue shade. She told that story for years and until the internet nobody really believed it.
She is from a family of 9 children and she is the only one that ever saw one of the Blue People.

I also turned into a blue person for a short time, although I have NO relation to the family of Blue People. Acute Methemoglobinemia (meaning not genetic) can also be caused by certain medications, such as local anesthetics. I found out the hard way that I am apparently very sensitive to these drugs and was treated with IV Methylene Blue as well. It happened over the course or an hour or two after a procedure I had & I started to turn blue and lose consciousness. It was extremely scary for both me and my parents. Once the toxicologist figured out what was wrong with me, they brought in all the medical students because it was such a rare thing to get to see in person. My blood was only carrying about 50% of the normal amount of oxygen. Methemoglobinemia basically makes your red blood cells less “sticky” so they’re not able to bind with and carry oxygen molecules as they normally would.
The really interesting part that no one warned me about is that when you inject something dark blue into your veins, the first time you pee after that, it’s dark green! So I thought I was dying all over again. Funny now, not so funny back then! It took several days for that to work it’s way out of my system but the Methylene Blue literally saved my life and worked very quickly once they figured it out. That part took hours.

But not a SINGLE time have I heard about all the priblems before. I guess austrians just want to make their history better but it really blew my mind i didnt learn about any of this.
and yet we inbreed our dogs and other pets and wonder why they tend to die younger or are more physically delicate.
Just say it: defective. 😂😂

I belong to a large extended family and at one point my cousin asked me out. Now this guy was a sixth cousin, related by marriage, no shared dna whatsoever. But I still told him no bc I didn't want to be able to say that I'd met my husband at our family reunion lol.
You realize a 6th cousin is a very distant relative. That would be about the same amount of relation as any random person walking the street. You've probably talked to some stranger more closely related, and didn't even know it.
You used your sanity. Good job 👍

In middle school I had my first proper girlfriend, we were 12/13 age and in the same class at the studio. That summer, I went to a cousin's birthday party and she was there. It was her cousin too, and not from the other side of the family by marriage. Needless to say, we opted to just be friends after that. I never dated again until I went to college and could guarantee I wasn't related to her.

is not called blue blood for nothing , is a reasson for that . just investigate for your own the bloodcircles (it s not lines in "royal" fammiallys over europe and asia , its a circles).
😂😂😂😂
@@daniloodnedica6841It's called "blue blood" (from French, "sacré bleu") because in very old times, the _only_ known blue pigment (to dye things) was *_*extremely*_* expensive, as it was extracted from this particular small sea snail that lives in the Mediterranean (the area near modern Israel, iirc); they had to dive after it, and only got tiny amounts from each. The only people who could even dream of affording it were royals. And so it became that the colour blue (in garments, etc.) was associated with royalty - the _royal bloodlines._ Hence, "blue blood." It has nothing to do with inbreeding or methemoglobinemia (blue skin). In fact, the association goes far further back; you also see that the Roman emperors liked to have their household and personal guards be clad in blue (or purple, which is ofc a mix).
Omg, I lived in Germany and had the same reaction, breaking into fits of giggles that perplexed many a member of the small village we lived in. I think they really must have thought to themselves, "man those Americans are WEIRD."
Two additions:
1) Hitler's childhood village was isolated and deeply inbred... which might explain A LOT about his subsequent life.
2) The last Russian tsar's son had hemophilia, which came from generations of inbreeding with other European royals.
Hitler's mom and dad were Niece and uncle.
Hemophilia is *not* related to inbreeding. It's a sex-linked trait, meaning men _cannot_ be carriers for the disease. Either they have hemophilia themselves, or its not in their genes at all. The last tsarevich, Alexei, inherited it _only_ from his mother.
It wasn't just his village. Hitler's family was very inbred as well. Hitler's mother called his father "uncle". Hitler himself had a relationship with his niece that had incestuous connotations.
When your Father's Day cards reads ...."Happy fathers day uncle paw-paw".

His grandson married his half-sister (which is already incest), and it makes him half-brother in-law of this guy, they have a kid and years later this guy marries the child (which is kinda weird based on the age difference), so his grandson becomes his father in-law

Damn...

Not incest if I got it right, just weird at most
We had a family JUST like that, at the grocery store I worked at. They went to our high school, & lower.
And they are VERY nice people. But, it seemed as if both parents had some mental deficiencies, that also caused some physical deformities.
I mean all of this, with the utmost respect. Because they are VERY sweet people, who just got a bad shake or dealt a rough hand.
The daughter is my age, & I am friends with her on FB. She couldn’t BE a nicer person, & you KNOW she heard hell her whole life. Her younger brother was the worst, & ever could speak…he could only grunt & moan. I always felt so bad for them. They had to walk everywhere, & had no car. So, they had to walk blocks to the grocery store, which the son also had a waking issue. Then, shop, & then walk home. I always wanted to give them a ride home, when working there in high school. But, I couldn’t leave my job, to do it.
So, I have a similar experience, in my life. This was the late-90s, when I was a Junior & Senior, in HS. We just…we didn’t make fun of them, or crack on them, even behind their backs. People still hear those things, at some point. But, also treated them like human beings, with the respect deserved for being such. I was bullied, too. So, I can understand that side. I can’t imagine what they went through, in a cruel world of the late-90s.
Anyway….just had to share that. Lol!
fucking metal ❤️🔥 . I couldn't agree more with this approach. it's amazing what people bully and judge just because they are different or because they want to be seen as funny and cool (as if bullying others is funny OR cool... )... or because they get bullied by their parents at home and finding someone else to bully gives them a sliver of relief from feeling like scum.... I enjoy standing up for others too...
@@lilithjesus7718 Man! Right back at ya! Fucking Metal! (I’m also a big metal-head. My profile pic here is actually an artwork of my own, from my college days. I’m a Graphic Designer, by trade. Anyway…just wanted to add our commonality there, as well! Lol!)
Thank you very much, for your kind words. I do greatly appreciate it! I mean that honestly & genuinely. I tell people all the time that MetalHeads are actually some of the nicest, most respectful, & most caring, big-hearted people you will ever meet! As much as I ‘despise’ Hippies, I do call us “Metal Hippes”; only so those who are NOT like me or us can get a better understanding, of who we are as a whole or as a group & culture. What many of them don’t understand is …yeah, we may beat the shit out of each other in a Mosh Pit. But, it’s not malicious whatsoever. It’s just getting out pent-up aggression & anger. AFTERWARDs, when the song is over, we all shake hands & hug, & tell each other “Good work! Much respect, brother/sister! I hope all is well, with you!” Seriously. Yeah, you have your bad apples. But, we also take care of it in our own way, & get them the fuck out of there! Lol! Anyway….just wanted to add that in there. My apologies it has made this a tad lengthy! I hope I’m not _too_ long-winded, & you are able to complete this Reply Comment…because I truly appreciate & respect the words you gave to me there. Honestly!
I respect that SO much. Ya see, I am going back to school to get my Masters in Psychology (I’m currently 41-years old, & have been a professional Graphic Designer ever since I graduated with my FIRST Bachelors Degree, in Fine Arts with an Emphasis/Focus on Graphic Design (that’s the official title, of my degree. Lol!) I want to help people! I wasn’t just bullied, I have Bipolar Disorder AND (get this) I was originally diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, at the same time (when I was 25-years old).
However, just recently that changed. More & more things began coming out of me, & it was changed to “Childhood PTSD Caused by Mental, Emotional, and Religious &/or Spiritual Child Abuse).
So, what you said about bullies being bullied at HOME…? Yup! I was bullied both places. But, you’re absolutely RIGHT. And I have preached this to others, for YEARS. In fact, I JUST told my new counselor at the clinic I am currently attending (and about to ween off the medications, & get my life back ENTIRELY from my life of addiction! I’m so excited!)…I told him that I’ve ALWAYS made sure people know to NOT forget about the bully themselves or to throw them away. Don’t just automatically persecute & ridicule the bully. Especially if they are a kid or young themselves…which includes High School & even College-aged kids.
I make sure people understand it’s a Mental Health thing, & that a good deal (if not overwhelming MAJORITY) of school bullies are ALSO bullied THEMSELVES, and done so at HOME by their own parent(s)!
So, I am SO happy to see someone ELSE has this exact same concept & idea, as me. It sound like you & I are VERY like-minded, in a lot of ways.
I LOVE it!!!!!!
When I was a Junior in High School, I finally caught-up in physical size, with everyone else. Lol! It was baaaaaad news, for all the bullies, at THAT point. Lol! YEARS (my entire life) of being bullied at home AND at school made me physically AND mentally tough. The bullies didn’t know what HIT them, when I began fighting back.
THEN…me & a couple/few other guys started taking up for others bullied…ESPECIALLY those in the “Learning Deficient” students/kids. We’d grab the bully and PUBLICLY bitch slap them across the face…not to physically hurt them. It did hurt. But, it’s not like it was the WORST pain. We wanted to humble them, & humiliate them in front of ppl so they knew what it felt like.
Now…at THAT time (1997-2000), I DIDN’T have the mindset of “help the bully, TOO”. We weren’t as far along in Psychology & Mental Health, at that time; nor was I myself.
But, still…MOST of the “bullies” we took down were ones we KNOW weren’t bullied at home. A lot of them were the arrogant & narcissistic rich kids.
My wife was a bully back then, in fact. Why?
Well, her step-dad (who is her Dad really. He’s been there for her & raised her since she 3-years old…*40* years ago! Lol!) was an alcoholic & she watched him physically BEAT her mother growing up. So, yeah. It effected her. NOW..? Completely different story, & I had already moved on my personal therapy. So, I was able to help HET. She’d never had that before.
Anyway…I’ve rambled enough. I’m sorry, for that. I do truly hope you’ve been able to make it through all, of this. If so, I greatly appreciate that & you’re a TROOPER! Thank you!
And if NOT - if you DIDN’T make it all the way through - that’s okay, too. I completely understand.
I’m currently unmedicated due to us losing our jobs last November, losing health insurance, & no longer Abel to afford the treatment & meds right now.
So, the “Racing Thoughts” side effect or symptom of Bipolar Disorder causes me to be a bit wordy, & kinda jump around. So, I hope I have not done that TOO much, & this is still coherently written. Lol!
Really I just wanted to say it is AWESOME, to see ppl have the same type of mindset as my wife & I. And not just mindset, but LITERALLY having the exact same ‘idea(s)’ or ‘thoughts’ (referring to the bully being bullied at home part), because it’s NOT something everyone knows or realizes. In FACT, I’ve NEVER had a SINGLE person tell me that same thing, like you just did. So, I absolutely LOVE it, to FINALLY see someone else who not knit GETS it, but is on the frontlines with me on this & all on their own. I didn’t HAVE to ‘teach’ then or help them come to this realization, for te very FIRST time. You ALREADY did it! And I just…I just can’t put Into words &/or tell you just how AWESOME that is, & how HAPPY that makes me. It’s 7:50 am my time right now, & you’ve already made my day!
Thank you!!! (And my deepest apologies, again; for this being so lengthy. I do get made fun of and bullied a LOT, for that…and do so to this very DAY! People all the TIME making fun of me on my personal FB & in-person. It hurts…but…yeah. I can’t help it. My brain just operates a bit differently than most people’s, so I also have a slightly ‘different’ way of speaking & communicating. I TRY to change it, but I can’t. I’ve failed, at every attempt. Even when I THINK I’m getting somewhere, NOPE! BOOM! I’m hit with it again. So, yeah. I’ll stop now. I’m sorry )

It left me with the awful feeling that only the youngest victims likely have a chance to break free; the older ones (who are also unfortunately perpetrators of abuse towards younger relatives themselves) seem so enmeshed with the family, what they've always known, and the 'us against them' etc., in addition to the very apparent cognitive delays caused by consanguinity, abuse and neglect.

I grew up in an area of Pennsylvania where this is a real problem, but it's a dirty secret people don't really talk about. THAT is the problem. At least in Iceland they discuss it, so it can be addressed.
There were two families in my town that were all inbred and all of them were in "special" classes. In fact, an insult was to call someone their last name, or a slur based on their name. The funny thing is they were an OLD OLD family, and owned a huge amount of land, even though none of them had educations of jobs. They wouldn't sell their land, so it was a super weird situation. They lived in poverty sitting on million dollars worth of land (today at least). Broken downs cars and appliances all over their yards, houses falling apart, and crazy hand me down clothing.

Yeah that was one of the bigger surprises I had during an undergrad anthropology course. Most societies up until the past 100-200 years would mate with their first and second cousins. It kind of makes sense as it isn't your immediate family and if you're living in a relatively small village in, say, 500 BC Germania, it's distant enough to not be super weird but close enough to solidify your clan's strength.

@@veehope2702 You've made this unsubstantiated comment on a few threads - seems like you might have some issues.
Yes I do have an issue with the damaged lives that are still being born into this world due to inbreeding. Unsubstantiated? I'm sure you know how to use a search engine ... Joe has turned off links on his channel, I already tried providing a few.
The reason that people traditionally stick their pinky out when they're drinking tea is because the inbreeding of royalty caused them to have pinkies that were noticeably shorter than others.
So people started sticking their pinkies out to show everyone that they were of royal descent.
Is this true ,,??*

I always remember that quotation by Durant and Durant which said that Charles II of Spain was, "...always on the verge of death but repeatedly baffling Christendom by continuing to live." If he is not the poster child for the ills of incest, then I don't know who is!
As a teenager I got interested in learning about my large pool of relatives. I was initially shocked to learn there were multiple lines to a few of them. When I traced it all out, I was relieved to verify there were no incestuous relationships, just two separate families with interlaced connections. Because some of my goofy cousins had me wondering…
It’s kinda weird seeing all those comments cuz where i come from marriage between cousins is considered okay and even preferred in the countryside 😅
FOLLOW THE SCIENCE. It shows the mating between 3rd cousins is the most productive. It produces more babies that reach adulthood than any other coupling
.
@@electrictroy2010 technically yes. Make sure enough DNA to ensure no genetic incompatibility, while not sharing so much that it causes negative recessive traits to express themselves, but I would also argue that this isn't particularly relevant.
In a world with modern medicine and the increasing ability to analyze and manipulate genomes, this kind of planning just simply isn't required.
They're also probably isn't as much of a stigma around 3rd and 4th cousins, because a lot of people don't even know their third and fourth cousins due to being so far removed. The stigma is mostly around sibling, parent, and first and second cousin marriages.
I'm also very concerned why you seem so defensive of inbreeding, even if you're a specific scenario isn't that bad. Like, you posted this exact comment dozens of times on a years old video.

My half-aunt had a daughter with her half-brother. They supposedly didn't know that they were related at the time. Their daughter has some mental problems, but a lot of it might be a result of the way that she was raised.

Anime Games Wrastling in all seriousness tho, that was literally the best thing that could have ever possibly happened. The more inbred and physiologically deformed the new rulers became, the more stupid wars and avoidable plagues/disasters would have come to place.
Eventually, I’m sure that one royal family would have become so inbred (father-daughter, brother-sister, etc.) that all their attempts at creating an heir to the throne would be at 100% stillborn rate, but they wouldn’t understand it, so they’d keep on fucking their children and siblings because it was literally the only thing they were ever born to do.

@@Wysiwyg43 Yep Margarita Teresa was about as normal as you can get coming from a uncle-niece marriage.

FYI: if there’s a very occasional cousin marriage in a family, you’ll be just fine. But when you have multiple relatives marrying each other over several generations? Problem.
When I was a teenager My family moved from California to a small town in Tennessee. It was a huge culture shock. I got a job working at one of the few restaurants in town. At some point in their lives everyone in town worked at this restaurant or at the grocery store next store. My boss’s daughter, aunt, son, brothers, husband, mother, and cousins all worked at the restaurant over the years and I worked with a lot of them. I was working with the boss’s daughter one day and asked why her uncle and mother had the same last name since my boss was married. Ok. So we will call the boss Amy. Amy married a guy named Bob. Bob’s Dad married Amy’s Mom. Their parents then had a couple kids together. So they all had the same last name. So my boss’s brother was also her brother in law, and her mother was also her mother in law. Her brothers were her kids double uncles because they were brothers to both the father and the mother. Her father was her father in law and her husband was also her brother...lol

You take a picture and photocopy it. It is a really good copy of the original, but there are small flaws. Mostly not noticed. Then, you take the copy and make a copy of the first copy. Now there's more flaws, then you take the new copy and make a photocopy of that one.
Each subsequent copy is more and more degraded. It made a lot of sense to me when explained that way lol

Keep the best copies in the family

Like when meme videos get shared and downloaded and then reuploaded so many times the video quality just deteriorates.
It is more like you want meat and salad for dinner but with inbreeding you get either double meat or double salad.
Someone may say that meat is more expensive and more valuable, other may be a vegetarian and preffer double salad, but for the most people the best option would be to have both.
My Dad grew up in rural New Jersey and rode his dirt bike in the hills a lot. The town he had to ride through to get home was called Shaugerville. The people were super aggressive to outsiders and if you attempted to ride your bike through the town (you had to turn it off and walk it through) they would shoot you with shotgun shells filled with rock salt. Then you had to take a bath until the salt dissolved. But they were super inbred and were known as the "Jackson Whites." He told me they all had clear hair cleft lips. My grandmother who was a nurse went up there fore the county to give them checkups. She said they all had odd deformities.
