Most scientific studies conclude that race is a social construct.

Some places do have a lower Average IQ but that's an education/ nutrition thing not a race thing

suppose /pol/ wins, and it becomes accepted fact that black people are on average significantly less intelligent. what would we then do in society? what use would be made of this information? we still help mentally challenged people live their lives as ordinary people by giving them extra care throughout education, charities, job opportunities etc. the same thing would happen for black people; they be viewed as less 'normal', but would be catered for even more in our society, and most importantly of all, it would be even less socially acceptable to hate them. so my question is, why do people from /pol/ care at all? why do they want people to be '''red pilled'''? how would that help them live better lives?

>>6631503

ALL scientific studies.

>>6631528
Can we get an example of the studies people from /pol/ usually post? Anyone got them to hand?

If politely asking doesn't work,
If you think black PEOPLE aren't EXACTLY the same as us you're a fascist Republican racist fuck and I hope you and your virgin dick rot in an early grave

>>6631514

Fuck off with your non-sequitur. OP asked for scientific evidence of differences between races, not armchair political speculation.

>/pol/ has only one opinion

How ironic that you'd blame them for stereotyping and prejudice.

>>6631574
I'll agree to the first point, it was off topic. To the second, I'm not stereotyping anything. I wasn't addressing that to anyone on /pol/ that didn't fit the bill of what I was talking about. However, the people who do fit the bill are, if not a majority, certainly significant.

>>6631605

The bill of what? Recognizing clear and distinct general differences among races?

We were all raised on ideas of multiculturalism and equality, but turning a blind eye to what makes each race specialized and unique is a slap in the face of true diversity and ignorant of the effects of geographical isolation on evolution. If you think that skin color was the only genetic factor that was selected for differently across separate tribes you are allowing political implications cloud your scientific judgement.

Thats the only one I have on hand, I dont know how much of this sort of thing is out there.

>>6631633
Mate you're attacking me for being a stereotype. I haven't said anything about rave difference denial. I just posed a hypothetical and wondered what your thoughts were. I don't understand why (some people on) /pol/ want people to see it their way, because the consequences surely would not work in their favour.

>>6631574
>/pol/ has only one opinion

They have opinions besides "THE JEWS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERYTHING WRONG WITH MY LIFE"?

>>6631633
OK so what exactly was selected for? You do understand what natural selection means right? For skin color, it's pretty obvious. Environments close to the equator have more sun and therefore you need more protection from UV radiation, hence more melanin production. But what other selective factors are there for Africans exclusively? Please educate me anon.

Genetic difference between classical "races" is too small to be of any significance. A white man is more closely related to a black man of the same height than he is a shorter white man.

I hate all stupid people equally, maybe its a coincidence that its mostly nonwhite people.

we have predisposition on dog breeds, some breeds are considered smart, while others are known to be dumb, hard to train, bad memory, no sense of direction ect.

Why is it most police dogs are one breed?

Yes I know dogs =/= humans, but are our races not as different as their breeds? If education/nutrition plays a role in intelligence, what happens when a poorly educated/malnourished group in 10 generations? they stay dumb.

>>6631669
It's not what blacks were selected for, it's what whites were selected for. Being able to think critically and plan for the future is vital in a region where you have long, cold winters that are devoid of easy food.

However, in the equatorial regions, this trait was not as strongly selected for.

Also, Neanderthal genetics may also come into play.

>Yes I know dogs =/= humans, but are our races not as different as their breeds?
Yes.

>>6631678
>Yes I know dogs =/= humans, but are our races not as different as their breeds?
Our races are more like white and black labradors than different dog breeds. Dog breeds are a result of artificial selection. Humans chose wolves with certain traits and kept breeding them until they got a number of vastly different breeds. Humans on the other hand developed different skin colors because when they moved away from the equator into areas with less sun, dark skin did not allow them to get enough vitamin D. But other selective pressures for a human living in the north were not much different than a human living in Africa.

>It's not what blacks were selected for, it's what whites were selected for. Being able to think critically and plan for the future is vital in a region where you have long, cold winters that are devoid of easy food.
And that is somehow not critical in a barren climate? topkek, you have no idea what you're talking about.

The reason black people are on average less intelligent than white people is because of arbitrary cultural and historical factors, not genetic ones.

>>6631678
>If education/nutrition plays a role in intelligence

That has been taken into account.

Blacks are still dumber than whites.

Whites are still dumber than Asians.

PCmyfeelsyo crap should never guide you.

>>6631695
and the only ones that survived the harsh winters outside the equators had to be smarter?

>>6631695
>The reason black people are on average less intelligent than white people is because of arbitrary cultural and historical factors, not genetic ones.

For example, the idea of intelligence is bullshit, right? Intelligence is a social cultural construct. A retard can learn physics, medicine and philosophy.

PC bullshit is bullshit. Unless you're willing to say that there are absolutely no stupid people, ever.

>we have predisposition on dog breeds, some breeds are considered smart, while others are known to be dumb, hard to train, bad memory, no sense of direction ect.

Ladies and gentleman, /pol/.

>>6631695
It is easier to survive in a barren environment because the only tasks necessary for survival are running down gazelle until they overheat and fucking. Cold climates require long-term planning skills. Warm ones require less. This isn't controversial.

>>6631722
they day I learned how fertile africa is, and the people starving there have IQ so low they don't see a pattern with a seed and a plant I stopped caring about dumb people.

>>6631722
>uses butthurt about /pol/ and the image instead of reading the post

...says the escaped /pol/itic. People that react and don't question have no place here, because they enable cancer.

You are either cancer, or a cancer enabler.

Either way, leave.

>nobody in Africa grows crops
>they also live in mud huts

Ah, to be 15 again

>>6631707
And the only ones who survive a hot barren desert had to be smarter? This is sort of like saying a finch on one island is smarter than a finch on a different island because they have to hunt different prey. It doesn't make sense. Humans don't get smarter through evolution, they get smarter by using memetic knowledge, aka culture.

>>6631730
By that logic, black people should be very good at building walls because that is what protects you from lions. You're an idiot.

>>6631712
>For example, the idea of intelligence is bullshit, right? Intelligence is a social cultural construct. A retard can learn physics, medicine and philosophy.
Huh? The only reason you understand such concepts is because when you were a child they were taught to you, not because you are genetically predisposed to them. If intelligence is genetic, /pol/ must be inbred.

>>6631735
yes before white man showed them, they lived a very tough life.

>>6631740

>they don't grow crops
>they do grow crops but

Keep that goalpost steady

>>6631739
Having problems with rational thought, Jamal? Traits like increased intelligence can surface relatively quickly when the population is small and the environment is harsh. If human skin color could change over such a short period of time, then intelligence could have as well. There are various physical differences between African and Caucasian brains as well, ones that culture couldn't possibly cause.

Also, lions only fuck with you when you're in their territory. Humans make for shitty and unreasonably dangerous food. In addition, whites had to build walls to keep the cold out, which is a far more universal problem in northern society than lion attacks in equatorial ones.

>This is sort of like saying a finch on one island is smarter than a finch on a different island because they have to hunt different prey.

if you take these 2 finches and bring them to the same spot, if 1 had a lazy life with plentiful food laying around and the other had to actively hunt 12+hrs a day to survive, if the location you brought them to didn't have food laying around what one do you think would prosper? Does that mean the one that had to hunt smarter?

>Humans don't get smarter through evolution
you what-

give an example of a african city not built by white men, then look at how awful it is.

How do you guys think /pol/ will react when Africa becomes fully developed (say, 50 - 100 years from now)? Do you think they'll backtrack on their previous beliefs about blacks, or will they resort to conspiracy theories to explain why things changed?

>>6631740
White people lived on Eurasia, land routes spanning from asia to europe carried information and technology. Meanwhile sub-saharan Africans we're cut off from all of this. Civilization wasn't beneficial to them.
