GuestLook at all the weasel words
>>No evidence for RECENT natural selection
No shit.
>Race is not a MEANINGFUL way to categorize humans
No shit. It’s a USEFUL way. You know, like in prescribing medication uniquely to Africans. Or how Asians are allergic to beer and get flushed faces. Or how blacks need hair specialists for their uniquely dense hair.
>Cognitive differences between ancient groups unlikely to exist
Source: dude just trust me. So evolutionary pressures on geographically distinct populations for tens of thousands of years has absolutely no impact on cognition. Yet, somehow humans evolved cognition and chimps didn’t.
>Iq differences are environmental in origin
No shit. Nobody disputes this. It’s that they’re environmental AND genetic.
>Scientifically obsolete
Doesnt exist in science. Either your model is falsified or its still accurate. It’s not been falsified.-

GuestIt’s become somewhat of a hobby of mine to search for and identify all the ways they weasel in their little bullshit.
It’s actually sort of impressive to me how effortlessly they add all that bullshit in such subtle and graceful ways, and sometimes you really gotta give them credit for how clever and creative they can be.
Truly an art. -

GuestThe suppression of information that goes against a government-backed narrative either by mitting/ignoring it or calling it fraudulent/wrong despite no proof is typical of totalitarian
societies.The west is a totalitarian society.
Rather than criticially analyzing and discussing the consequences of such analyses ‘why do black people perform worse at IQ tests?’ ‘what does IQ mean in the first place’ etc., the west simply denies the results and punishes those who have published and researched it. Simultaneously, this might be understood as a silent acknowledgment of the results. The West’s questionable handling of politically insensitive information is one of the major reasons for the rise of the alt-right and the concept of human biodiversity. -

GuestThe redpill is that intelligence is phenomenally difficult to study to begin with and that this sort of thing is nearly impossible to prove either way. You might be able to make some elementary conclusions about brain size and frontal lobe activity but much in the same way that our ancient ancestors could only have differentiated between material in the sky by how bright it shone.

GuestI really dont understand this approach.
Its not appealing to leftists, who already believe that everyone is equal, diversity is our strength etc etc
And to anyone else, its such an obvious propaganda push that they would realize the exact opposite of this indoctrination is true.
So really, this only serves to further entrench the correct belief that race and intelligence are correlated.

GuestWe institute an extreme Eugenics program on Africa. Through this we can slowly eliminate their bottom 2% in intelligence every generation, just enough to eliminate every African 2 sd below their mean. Then, over the generations they’ll slowly catch up, hopefully, then we’ll be able to put all this race shit behind us, both sides.

GuestBecause there are no prominent scientists who believe in that, just political organizations. Why should political organization opinions be valid?
For example, all scientists in the genetic sciences are "racists". All behavioral genetics are. Antiracists are so freaking stupid that we even have word games where we can say the most genetic determinists thing on race and these scrotes (like all leftists) will not even notice because they are unable to understand what we say.
All antiracists need to be imprison, and I think its time that LULZ realize thats not a political belief, its a scientific belief that anti racists are a danger to society.

Guest1. What explains IQ differences between these groups if it isn’t genetics?
2. They also say male and female is not a biologically meaningful way to classify people. Their categories can be safely ignored on categorical grounds.
3. Agreement isn’t truth. Consensus isn’t truth.
4. Psychologists can’t do stats and have failed to do any proper study. Much like when these scrotebrains talk about policing. Cherry picking is the goto.
5. Opinions do not matter.-

Guest1. Lack of education/language school, bad housing with neurotoxins like lead and asbestos (look at Detroit housing maps for example), lack of nourishment (there’s some research relating intelligence to Omega 3 and fish food in Japanese populations for example). Over the past century the difference between black and white populations in the US decreased to a degree that cannot be explained with genetics (I believe that’s what this RECENT natural selection is about)and instead correlates with life improvements of blacks
2. Where do they say that?
3. Truth doesn’t exist in science, anon. Prominent theories are reflected by their general acceptance within the scientific community (which of course only works the way it should as long as the scientists adhere to scientific principles).
4.wut
5. Again, see point 3. Though "most researchers" is likely wrong here, and isn’t specified.Note that OP’s pic is about the question "Is there really a SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS that there is no evidence…", not about the evidence itself. So the points should answer by citing said consensus.

No.

What difference exactly has decreased? Certainly not IQ and some actually increased.

The fact that differences already appear
in preschool does not mean that education/school does not further influence the difference. It just means that there are influences prior. It may surprise you but a trait like intelligence can have multiple influence factors, such as…

I should have mentioned that the gap among children in that age is almost full SD which is the same as in adult population.
So there is not much space for anything really to influence the racial IQ gap

Yeah this link was just to show that wealth gap increased. For stability of IQ gap, pretty good article I recently read was this: https://ideasanddata.wordpress.com/2021/07/06/critiquing-charles-murray-on-changing-iq-gaps/-

Interesting. Pre-preschool influences can still be non-genetical, like prenatal neurotoxins. Though if the results in the article can be properly replicated it would strongly speak against education influences.>https://ideasanddata.wordpress.com/2021/07/06/critiquing-charles-murray-on-changing-iq-gaps/
Haven’t read the book cited though it sounds like shit, especially that part with the data change, wow. Still, previous research, including authors other than Murray, find a decrease trend. The article itself cites the Flynn study for example.

GuestI live near blacks and I can guarantee you that race is an important category and those people are mentally and physically different than we are. You can cope all you want, but it’s obvious to anyone who interacts with them that blacks are less intelligent than whites. They keep expecting equal results given equal or even slightly favoring blacks, but that’s never going to happen and is an impossible totalitarian demand. They have to actively cripple whites for that to be true.

Yes, NPC, all races are equal…. LOL.
Here’s the spoiler, if white people aren’t better than why did white people CRUSH the planet? Where is the 1st world country run by black people? Where is technology equivalent to the net that we use every day created by something in Africa?
You can answer none of these, but you will struggle and cope. Good. Now go make me more money by posting on facebook and twitter.
Anyone else benefit from the stupidity of NPCs? Who else here to laugh at them? lol i love it

GuestNo the system can work even despite this. Because despite all the ridiculous taboos, people still recognize people are not equal. They actually do test intelligence in interviews for tech companies, they judge woke af on how well the person can speak, they also judge in interviews wether you are a good "team-player". Meaning they judge agreeableness, Conscientiousness.
It’s just one big clown world with all the apes in cognitive dissonance.
