In the stifled, constipated political discourse of the modern West, there are quite wide categories of facts that are rather obviously true, but which it has for decades been considered gross bad manners to mention aloud. Now, suddenly, we are seeing those facts printed in respectable organs of news and opinion. Early signs of a paradigm shift? Or just a momentary aberration?

Interesting article, I'm glad I has stomach enough to read through the crap about the pig Frum. I've always thought of Derbyshire as the token sane person at NR, sort of like Greenwald at Salon.

The reasons for Mexico’s very low level of civilizational achievement presumably lie buried in the tangled feedback loops of history, geography, and population genetics...

They would STILL be on tops of pyramids cutting the hearts out of living people if Europeans had never crossed the Atlantic, they certainly wouldn't be industrialized to any greater degree than they were in 1491.

Greece was not industrialized during its "Golden Age" and yet they produced some of the greatest philosophers who have ever lived. The Greek classics are still profitably read today and are still current in our industrialized culture. It is one of the conceits of the West that often we mistake technology for cultural advancement. No, it is just technology. I am not some Neo-Luddite who despises technology; it is a useful tool, but it is not the stuff which makes life worth living.

OK, throw technology aside: point out the Socratic dialogues passed down from the Aztec/Mayan philosophers ;-). My point is that the stone-age cultures in North and South America would never have advanced beyond the state they were discovered in 1492. Although, those figures only seen from the air in South America are pretty cool.

While I'm not trying to pound you into the ground here again I would differ. Not so much the Aztecs, who did practice human sacrifice on a large scale, but the Maya and Inca had a written language at the time of the Conquistadores it is just that we have not received very very little from them because the good Dominican Friars burned it all as heresy. As well the archaeology of the region is interesting. At one time in the very distant past Guatemala was criss crossed by a complex and extensive canal system, there were mines both for metals and for, interestingly enough, Jade. The Jade is interesting because in China Jade is revered and yet China has no Jade mines. So, they had to trade for it somewhere.

Going further we can look at the scale of the architecture. The largest pyramid in Mexico is a staggering 8 miles around at the base. For comparison the Pentagon is 5 miles around at the base.

Moving further south the great wall at Ollantaytambo is so finely fitted that you cannot slide a piece of paper between the stones. The largest stone in the wall is an immense 250 tons. I guess you could call that Stone Age but it is hardly the stuff of "Ug mighty hunter".

At Tiahuanaco, just a few miles from lake Titicaca is a large complex, canals that had to have been built before the Andes were upthrust 2 milles into the sky and a curious temple gate which is aligned astronomically to a stellar alignment that occurs only once every 15,000 years or so. Something else interesting is that they used metal clamps to hold the stones together in their walled structures. What makes it really interesting is that they had to have been poured in situ - at the site of the stones. The import being that they had to have had some means of keeping metal in a molten state as they moved from clamp to clamp.

Again, it is a bias of our Western culture, and hence what is taught (such as it is) in our schools.
