A lot of his data and ideas are interesting, but most of the overall thesis is bullshit.

I suspect Diamond is intelligent but dishonest. He produces idiotic output due to malice, not due to incompetence.

Diamond sometimes quotes — or plagiarizes — big chunks of sensible fact from better researchers. However, his end results always are at odds with reality. This does not smell like plain idiocy to me. Diamond seems to be a malicious fraudster, not an idiot.

“Humanitarian” whatever is just a smokescreen for the simple and inarguable fact that every movement of people from their place to someone else’s coincides with an episode of conquest.

And Diamond knows as well as anyone that every episode of conquest dilutes the loser’s gene pool.

Also the implicit assumption that the absorption of a billion AFricans would not change Europe in any way at all, or that any Africans might want to stay in their own home countries and take a shot at improving them or just living at home as best they can, or that that might be possible.
