VoxDay did a pretty good rebuke of Jordan Peterson here: https://voxday.blogspot.com/2018/04/the-myth-of-jordan-petersons-integrity.html

This is like 90% valid. Vox does present rules-of-thumb that aren't accurate like averaging populations IQs when they interbreed, but overall it is a good breakdown on why it is preposterous to believe that American jews have 115 IQs.

This situation is quite interesting. The Left denies IQ research. The Right embraces bad IQ research because if you convince people jews have high IQs it is easier to convince them that blacks have low IQs. The whole thing is distorted.

I also want to discuss what can be done about the decreasing returns to IQ. Far too many high IQ people (almost always nerdy men) basically give up on life and play video games. It is tragic, and we must find a solution both for them and for society as a whole. The amount of wasted brainpower in the US is staggering.
