Some questions for and libtard egalitarians or "Anti-racists" on /sci/

1) Do you think human intellect, behavior, and personality has a genetic component?

2) Does that mean that families could share certain intellectual, behavioral, and personality traits?

3) Are racial groups an extended family that is inbred to some degree?

4) Wouldn't that mean that it is possible for racial groups to share intellectual, behavioral, and personality traits?

5) What evidence convinces you, that (if you have answered "yes" to all of these premises), although it would have been possible for them to differ, all current races are instead EXACTLY equal in intellect, personality, and behavior?

As someone who has lived in the same environment as lower class American blacks, and attended a government paid vocational training school for two years with hundreds of others that have lived in the same conditions from all over the country, I can say from experience that blacks have by far been the stupidest people I've ever encountered.

They are the only ones that aren't there to turn their shit around, and try to make something of themselves. They're there for a the free food and bed. They're violent, rude, and loud. They get frustrated, confused and angry when asked to work with technology, and the overwhelming majority of them just drift through and then go back to where they were before as soon as their time runs out, if they haven't been kicked out for some rule violation already.

The difference in intelligence between whites and blacks in that place was very much noticeable.

I can acknowledge the fact that intelligence varies within a race, and it's entirely possible for some blacks to succeed in the western world, but it absolutely astounds me when people like you refuse to acknowledge the fact that they are in general, just flat out stupid compared to the rest of the world.

actually i'm against policies only applying to some races; for instance, affirmitive action
it is partially based on the claim that all races/sexes are equal in intelligence and other factors like that, and thus the most succesful group is obviously pushing down the less successful groups because if given equal playing fields, there would not be this discrepency.

however, the axiom of equality is fundamentally bullshit that goes unsubstantiated; the reason blacks are less successful tahn whites in this country is because they are less intelligent, on average, and do not posess the same behavioural and cognitive traits that whites do -- this is also why ashkenazi excel so much compared to whites

The intelligence test measures your cognitive ability to interpolate and extrapolate patterns. But i would argue that this is not intelligence. Some of the greatest inventions in humanity were not brought up by linear thought, but by veering off the path into the unknown. Into the abstract. I bet my bottom dollar you would claim the likes of DaVinci Edison and Einstein to be of great intelligence, however they did not follow the line , but stepped "outside of the box" onto a parallel of abstract thoughts that were considered retarded to be blunt. In north american society we are taught to be creative and explore new frontiers in thought, i fail to see any such question in the IQ test that really forces you to do more then mathematical calculations or find synonyms. No imho(which granted could be complete bullshit) the intelligence quiz measures your cognitive ability(which is great) but does not measure intelligence, in the sense that the pattern of humanity is a pattern of mediocrity, intelligence is pure abstraction.

The whole "You can't measure intelligence, we don't know what it means" slippery slope argument is so laughable.
Majoring in evolutionary psychology I know how old and well-answered these shit arguments happen to be, and it's painful to have to repeat the arguments over and over again. /sci/, I am dissapoint.

Anyway, IQ and intelligence are two different things. One is a measurement, a scale, and the other is a psychological construct that is measured, to some degree, by IQ tests. Confusing IQ and intelligence is like confusing weight and pounds.
Next, few scholars study intelligence. While the word is used in common parlance, there is no common definition; instead, most serious scholars study g, or general factor of intelligence (I see this has been said in this thread) or one of its subconstructs, such as fluid or crystallized abilities.
Once you jump to "g" the definition becomes more agreeable and meaningful. There are technical debates, just like any area of science, but its measurement, by factor analysis, goes undebated.
Sure, for most purposes in normal life, it's alright to quasi-equate intelligence and g, as well as IQ scores and intelligent, but they are different concepts.

However, this does not mean g is not meaningful and a very real concept that often correlates with important traits.

Having said that, I will gtfo out of this fail thread, have fun OP.

Not a "libtard," whatever that means, but let's do this anyway.
>1) Do you think human intellect, behavior, and personality has a genetic component?
Yes. Genetics are probably the largest factor in intelligence, but environment is more important. An illiterate child convinced he is worth nothing will never capitalize on his wonderful mind, while a person of average intellect in a positive environment with sincere motivations may achieve great things.
>2) Does that mean that families could share certain intellectual, behavioral, and personality traits?
Possibly, but intelligence seems to regress towards the mean. A highly intelligent parent may produce an even smarter child, but the odds of them producing a child of lower intelligence are better. However, that does not imply any sort of reverse extrapolation. Parents of IQs (Not a great measure of intelligence, but whatever) 140 and 140 might get a 130 daughter, but, provided that child mates with a partner of similar intellect, IQ should remain in the 120-130 range across generations.
>3) Are racial groups an extended family that is inbred to some degree?
In my most humble opinion, yes, but the differences across the racial spectrum appears to be severely exaggerated. We have more in common than we care to admit, but we're not the same.

Part 2...

>> No.962503

>>962494
>Part 2

>4) Wouldn't that mean that it is possible for racial groups to share intellectual, behavioral, and personality traits?
Once again, intelligence seems to regress towards the mean, but that doesn't mean that significant inbreeding, as seen in the Ashkenazi Jews, can lead to recurring traits within the group. But you knew that already. Just look at their IQ scores.
>5) What evidence convinces you, that (if you have answered "yes" to all of these premises), although it would have been possible for them to differ, all current races are instead EXACTLY equal in intellect, personality, and behavior?
Like I said: We're similar, but not the same. How boring would that be?

Conclusion: Intelligence is a measure of our CAPACITY for intelligent decision making, but by no means a guarantee. A strong correlation exists between success and intelligence, but that does not mean we live in a world where an average man with above-average ambitions is doomed to fail.

No, you have taken an elite sample of Blacks and compared them to people raised in drastically different environments with entirely different morals.

However, the Minnesota transracial adoption study tested Blacks, half Blacks, and Whites adopted into middle-class White families.
The parental IQ of the Black and half Black children was virtually identical, but the 1/2 Black kids had higher IQs than the Black ones (Whites had the highest)
However, they BOTH grew up in the same environment (White middle class adoptive parents) and they BOTH were percieved as full Black by society, their parents, and themselves -- BUT the 1/2 Blacks scored higher on the IQ tests than the Blacks.

Explain this please.

1) behavior and personality I'll predominantly put in the environment more important than genetics column, as for intellect I'm not really sure, frankly I don't think we have a good idea what we're talking about with intellect, we have some nice psychofags in here discussing different rubrics but all I know is I've seen IQ tests and they seem mainly to be about spatial puzzles, a nice skill but not what I'd call intelligence. This g factor shit doesn't impress me much either. I'm sure how to sort people based on intelligence accept in creating three broad piles, those sorely lacking it, those possessing roughly average, and those who exceed greatly. (Hint the third one is mostly made of fields medal recipients).

2)Families share many traits often because of shared environment along with learning behaviors from parents etc.

3)Not really no. They're broad populations consisting of millions of members filled with all sorts of variety, except with the regard to the few characteristics we choose to define them by, and even then there is great variety in those traits largely we just choose not to see it.

4)Evolution always encourages, nay requires as a prerequisite, a certain degree of variation within a population, this diversity will be present within single-race populations.

if by "a LOT" you mean almost nothing in comparison to the variation in other species. The genetic differences in human populations is virtually minuscule when compared to other species.

Nice trolling, I mean its just perfectly executed.

So yes humans have existed for hundreds of thousands of years (about 200,000 or so to be exact) However if you would actually look at the markers for genetic diversity in mitochondrial DNA you can see how truly NOT diverse we are; when compared to the diversity of other species. As a species 200 ka is fairly young, consider that we didn't radiate outwards for another 150 thousand years or so and you can understand the bottle necking that takes place.

"White" and "Black" are not races first of all; you're referring to a subset of Caucasoids for White and combining a race and others for Black (Negroids + others).

No Negroid and Caucasoid outside of zones of admixture will have more traits in common with another race if you ignore junk DNA

60,000 years is a significant time for evolution to occur. For 900 years Ashkenazi Jews were only allowed to practice finance. Ashkenazi Jews have an average IQ almost a full standard deviation higher than white Europeans and non Ashkenazi Jews as a result. In less than 1000 years. Modern human evolution developed over a period of less than 70,000 years. Look at the complexity and change of tool sets that developed over the last 100,000 years. Evolution doesn't sit around and wait it continues. Look at the characteristic differences between them in the face. Your race denial is also dangerous. Look at the heart drug enalapril. It reduces blood pressure and risk of heart failure for whites, but does nothing for blacks. If the doctor refuses to acknowledge racial differences he will let people die.

Ok, I should narrow the focus of what I mean by "meaningless" then. It is not meaningless as a scientific inquiry. You could generate statistics and if you are careful, define certain groups and determine if there are meaningful statistical differences in certain traits like intelligence and personality that are predicted by their phenotype, that is, their outward appearance and ancestry.

But it would be meaningless in determining policy or making decisions about individuals or even groups of people because, well, they are people with rights.

One of those rights is to not have policy made that makes distinctions between people based on ancestry.

You missed the point. You are making a value judgement about which genes are more important. That isn't scientific.

I'm sorry, what?

Explain to me how observing consistent differences between Negroids and Caucasoids is cherry picking data?

Genetically we're within a few percent of a banana. Clearly certain genes are more important to what makes us different than others. I don't see how filtering out "junk DNA" can be called cherry picking. Most of our DNA is completely irrelevant to the conversation, and you include it when you say "LEIK OMG WERE ALL 99% THE SAME."

>Besides, its not like you have even shown that such differences actually exist.

That wasn't the purpose of my post. The purpose was to state that % of total variation of genetic information is irrelevant to individual traits.
