So, black people are in general less intelligent due to their history and their current place in society. They get sligthly lower level of education due to these reasons.

That's is a scientifically provable fact. Why do people get called racist?

Even if blacks are or aren't genetically predisposed(is this true?) to have lower IQ it's just a fact and nothing else.

Not to add fuel to the fire but some cold hard facts we have to look at could be the following; africa's peoples had little to do with the renaissance and its revolution on the world, it's peoples have contributed less than Europeans to the global pool of knowledge.

Although the same could be said about asians, Asia has quickly caught up with the world through industrialization, and its people have begun to contribute for quiite some time now.

If we base intelligence on the way we live our lives then it can probably be drawn to the conclusion that secluded peoples are less intelligent. Just because they live in huts and tribal communities doesn't mean that they aren't surviving in the world in their own way, they just don't find obsession with dissecting the universe as the Europeans did.

no offense but african politicians and statesmen are too corrupt and don't care about their people.
look at zimbabwe today. it is hard to imagine that once that country was called Rhodesia, and used to be one of the most prosperous nations in africa.

sure, it had inequality in a sense that many black people did not vote (voting was based on how much property you had i think?)
but after mugabe came and replaced ian smith, zimbabwe became one of the poorest countries in the world. pic related

also i recommend watching the movie "mugabe and the white african"
it basically tells a similar story to yours man. how black people who worked for white farmers loved their job. (some even had family graveyards on the owner's land). but after the land reforms, black politicians took the land from whites and people who worked on the farm got kicked out

>> No.4371461

Intelligence is largely a genetic trait. If twins are separated at birth and one lives with a rich doctor and the other grows up in the inner-city, they should still have the same IQ. And on average, the IQ of a child is the average between the parents.

So intelligence is mostly an inheritable trait. Just like things like color of skin, shape of nose, texture of hair, etc. Why is it so wrong to admit to inherent genetic differences between different populations (in this case, races) on some occasions but not others.

Obviously it's because saying blacks are, on average, less intelligent is going to upset people. That doesn't make it wrong though.

Certain groups of people are stronger, faster, more resistant to disease, taller, shorter, or yes even SMARTER. It's just a fact of life.

All of that from one article plus his comments on africa in general, I see where he's going with this.

Anyway I wonder why no one ever talks about the Timbuktu Manuscripts, great zimbabewe towers, the walls of benin or the benin empire itself?

There were clear signs of intelligence of sophisticated thought that could have grown to something of a sub-par 1st world economy/power. But because of the colonial europe all of that "possibility" got swept under the rug for a while maybe even permanently.

Of course had africa did manage to keep up in progress I think the promotion of slavery would have lasted a bit longer. So who knows if that was ultimately for the best.

also,

The "black sheep" example was retarded too. Sheep are almost always white, and once in a while there's a black one (recessive genes), and so they're the odd one out, which is what "black sheep" means. It's got fuck-all to do with race.

Because there remains a large group of people who wish to disenfranchise and demonize ethnic minorities, and aren't interested in truth in the slightest.

If no one gave a shit about race, we could all be more honest about this. But if I hear a guy talking about how people of African descent are "inferior" or some shit, I'm absolutely justified by evidence to believe that he's just a racist, rather than just trying to find the truth. I would try to verify, sure, but if I had to bet on it, chances are great that he's not being an impartial seeker of truth.

The problem is black people are not going to get fair and equal treatment by society no matter whether they're adopted and their parents are white, no matter what schools we put them into, no matter how much money we spend to teach them.

Outside the classroom they will still be given unfair and unequal treatment by society. It's literally impossible to determine their level of intelligence based on test scores that don't take into account how they interact with others outside school, how they're belittled by most members of society, how they're culture naturally distrusts 'white' institutions.

To actually determine their IQ you would need to raise white and black children on the far side of the moon with no interaction with anyone but each other and that will simply never happen.

Why is it we are so afraid all of a sudden to be different, or to tell someone they are different? This is not only with skin colour or other factors, but just look at the modern feminists and the way they promote gender equality in every god damn aspect possible. Criticizing corporations for making boy toys or girl toys, and criticizing people for telling that some people are smart and some are stupid.

While it's true that black people are on average less intelligent, do you see that it is problematic to assume any given black person is less intelligent, or that these differences in intelligence can be attributed to genetics? If you grew up in a poor neighborhood and you're white, chances are you're less intelligent. I can't say that for certain though, and therefore I must refrain from being prejudiced.

racism is not bad. many people are racist. its an evolutionary trait NOT to trust people who look different, because usually it brought sickness or some other horrible shit.

anyway, racism is not bad and can't really be destroyed, even though many leftists believe that you can destroy racism by increasing diversity. Discrimination IS bad because you limit somebody's rights based on things that they were born with.

racism - good
discrimination - bad

i would bet 100 dollars that everyone here is racist BUT would never discriminate based on color of skin.
i do however discriminate based on gender, but it is based on my personal experience with women

I don't think you're using the same meaning for "racism" that most people do. Though I think you're right that racism is mainly derived from an inherent distrust of out-groups.

There was lots of racism against the Chinese in California when they were migrant workers. Lots of terrible stuff. But you don't often hear people claiming the Chinese are subhuman today (anymore).

To assume that someone is less intelligent (than you) based simply on skin color is racism. However, what I do, and I do it equally to every race, is assess their intelligence based on a multitude of factors. If I see a black person in a suit and tie with glasses, next to a white guy with baggy pants a sports jersey and a backward baseball cap, I'm going to assume that the black guy is more intelligent. On the flipside though, if I see a black guy and a white guy both wearing the basic "gangsta" garb (baggy pants, sports jersey and a backward baseball cap or doo-rag), I'm going to assume the white guy is more intelligent because his skin is an indicator of his genetics and studies show that whites have a higher average intelligence. I'm still going to assume that they both have an intelligence below average, but the black guy I would place at around 85 where I would place the white guy at about 90 or 95. Because intelligence has been empirically shown to have a substantial genetic factor, and I see no problem in using the available evidence to ascertain a more accurate probable situation.

>If you grew up in a poor neighborhood and you're white, chances are you're less intelligent. I can't say that for certain though, and therefore I must refrain from being prejudiced.
You'd be wrong anyway, and not just because I happen to be above average intelligence, but because upbringing has some, but little correlation with intelligence. And you would indeed be unjustly prejudiced to assume that, especially because it isn't backed by solid evidence.

This.

Saying that blacks are, on average, less intelligent is not racist if it's true. Meeting a black person and thinking "he must be less intelligent because he is black" is racist. Taking skin colour into account when assessing someone we don't know is no more or less discriminatory than taking their clothes, posture, speech etc. into account.

Are you retarded? Are you seriously suggesting that this guy's work on DNA is any less true or significant just because he also happens to have evidence or reason to believe that black people are likely to be less intelligent? That's absurd.
