Why do people still believe in blank slate if most of your mental inteligence is determined by race and gender?

[Anonymous No.9176776]

Some people are so idealistic that they disregard logic and evidence. They really want their ideas to be true, so they don't care about objective reality.

you dont see the bigger picture here
there are a ton of highly intelligent and capable people at the end of the bellcurve which hold true for every race that has a big enough populationpool
discouraging those highly intelligent people because of their race only leads to overall less capable people persuing the sciences and improving the world

im not dissaproving that there are differences in intelligence between the races but making that knowledge mainstream does more bad then good

Intelligence finds a way to prosper. Truth is better than fiction.

the uncertainty between IQ tests and intelligence is far higher than the difference in IQ test results between races/genders.

All it proves in that on average white people are better at IQ test, probably because they are more likely to go to a better school

Intelligence insofar as the part of it that's determined by genetics (60-80%), is purely a hereditary function. People in the same families with the same parents tend to be similar to each other in intelligence, regardless of age or gender differences. In the large scale, you have millions of families of each race, who in total produce a strikingly different variance and mean in intelligence.

when i get some one to believe that he only achieve 8/10th of what someone else can achieve dont you think that he will be discouraged from trying his best?

i believe we as the "humanrace" achieve much more in the longrun when we let everyone work and study to their best capabilities than when we hinder them because of some abstruse reasons like the moral responsibility to tell everyone that some people are on average less capable then other people based on the geographical region their ancestors stem from,
so that ether the more fortunate descendants can feel better about their statistcal higher chance to succeed in life
or to find a better way to make up for their mental shortcommings
or not waste recoures on them

i all for letting people in the right positions that understand all the circumstances and dont missintepret the facts know about the truth but i can also understand why it should be avoided to let that knowledge seep through to the uninformed masses that are incapable to come to the right conclusions

Tell me what do you know when at the exact time of you birth? Does you IQ or your race endow you with mathematical truths, laws of mechanics, or every day matters of fact when you are fresh out of the womb? What sort of innate ideas are your mental slate filled with back when you physically could not articulate your own thoughts.

Literally no answer to a problem that has been solved hundreds of years ago without even appealing to science. You're fucking slipping man.
