What is your best estimate as to the mean IQ of all Americans named Shaniqua? Be honest.

(if answer < 100, you are a racist)

Probably somewhere near that of Aboriginals.

Why would a name define them? It's not their fault.
What do you think their parent's IQ is to name their child Shaniqua?

>> No.1595718

>>1595660
More like <75 is racist.

Studies have shown that black people have an average IQ less than 100. Do not confuse as assertion of correlation with an assertion of causation though. It's largely a social issue. This is mostly conjecture on my part, but I believe being born from parents who would name their child Shaniqua is a good indication of a social environment which would not foster the skills to do well on an IQ test.

I'll go with 80 too.

100. That's my best estimate, since 100 is the mean IQ of any population and name has no correlation with IQ.

intelligence is partially genetic. there are methods of interacting with children that have strong evidence suggesting that they raise the child's IQ.

I've met quite a few black people who are perfectly normal, sometimes even clever. I was smoking a blunt with a black friend of mine, and somehow we got on the topic of gravity. Homeboy wanted to know some shit, so he asked some questions. And when we got to orbits, all I really got around to saying was how when you throw an object on the surface of earth, it travels in an arc until it makes contact with the ground, and he was instantly like "so in an orbit, an object is falling toward another object, but it is traveling so fast that it basically falls around it in a huge circle, never making contact?"

I mean I don't really like to think of myself as racist but I'll go ahead and admit that I about shat myself when he correctly deduced where I was going with it. Niggers will surprise you if you give them a chance and treat them like people. Some of them will, at least.

Please don't post if you're ignorant. And yes, these results are very dire indeed. It is arguable how accurate the studies are in testing African American IQ, but the results are clearly lower than that of whites. Severely lower.

Perhaps this explains why white elites deny the black-white intelligence gap. High IQ whites hardly ever meet an "average" white person as smart as they are, so they don't notice how rare high IQ blacks are.

To all people who use the "low black IQ" shitty argument: Education != Intelligence. If some black people have lower results, it's because they usually come from poorer social backgrounds and have a poor education.

IQ test is basically an obviousness test. The higher your IQ, the more stuff seems blatantly obvious to you. The lower your IQ, the more things you need to specifically learn.

Actually its my understanding that the fact IQ tests take age into consideration is that the older you are the more assumed education you have had, and therefore the more things you 'got right' not because they were obvious deductions on your part but because you 'already knew the answer'
