If you are trying to ground IQ as a genetic product of race. The very first thing you need to do is offer up a genetic definition of race.Where did you debunk that?
Something no one has done. Nor done nor has any study.
But I’ll sit back, and invite you to give me a definition. Mainly because your attempts to define race will point out just how subjective such definitions are. In close to a decade of debating race and IQ with people like you.
I have yet to see any one of them, no matter what their scientific credentials (I repeat) no matter what their scientific credentials - offer up an acceptably neutral definition of race.
It's not enough to say "Blacks have a lower IQ. Now prove me wrong"
- You have to show that human variation is great enough to account for differences of IQ.
- You have to show that the veracity of IQ as a legitimate measurement.
- You have to show and provided an inextricable link between genetics, race, and IQ outside of methodologically flawed correlations.
If you are saying that black IQ is lower because blacks are “naturally” less intelligent.
That's an exceptionally radical statement. So you're going to need exceptionally radical proof to back it up.
Alfred Binet created IQ test to see which children weren’t profiting from the Parisian school system (not so that they could be labeled stupid) so new educational programs could be created to help those children.
Even back then he was afraid that his tests would be misused for the wrong reasons and he He must have been psychic because once certain people got a hold of it, they took on a whole new meaning.
And let's look at the people who try promote HBD (Human Bio-Diversity)
You notice anything strange?
- Steve Sailer, journalist/computer salesman.
- J. Philippe Rushton, psychologist.
- Francis Fukuyama, political economist.
- Steve Hsu, astrophysicist.
- Richard Herrnstein, psychologist.
- Charles Murray, political scientist (Author of Bell Curve)
- Arthur Jensen, psychology professor. (Author of Bell Curve)
No biologists. No anthropologists. No neurologists. No geneticists in sight.
But yet you take there words of youtuber over people who study these things for a living ?
And that's why in neurology no one takes IQ seriously.
It is archaic and only really useful to social scientists. And people like you who need simple explanations for complex things.
Neurologists have a better understanding of how the brain works because they spend decades of their lives studying it have little to no use for it, but to the public at large it is so important.
Because the public is only concerned with what feels like it should be true rather than what is actually the case in reality.
Don't feel bad that the average IQ for blacks is around 85. It's the best you can do.
