This. Humans need genetic bottlenecks in order to not degenerate. Leaving Africa and colonizing inhospitable northern areas was one such bottleneck in the past. Space colonization will be another.

Global average intelligence is decreasing.

>inb4 Flynn effect

An example of Simpson's paradox, also better educationand nutrition but that can only offset the underlying decline so far.

>Simpson's paradox (or Simpson's reversal, Yule–Simpson effect, amalgamation paradox, or reversal paradox[1]) is a phenomenon in probability and statistics, in which a trend appears in several different groups of data but disappears or reverses when these groups are combined.

>What's the purpose of a mars colony?

Creating an offshoot of human civilization with an average IQ of 130+ due to founder effect, and protected from being swamped by low IQs by the vacuum of space itself.

>is there any scientific data out there showing that races are equal intellectually?

Name ONE large African nation run by black Africans that any SANE human would choose to live in.
Proof is in the reality of the world!

Global average intelligence is decreasing.

If we could only figure out why IQ is decreasing?
What has changed about the people in Europe?
Hmmm.. we may never know!

The problem is not that birth rates are decreasing, it is that birth rates are decreasing quickly among the wealthy and educated, while they are not decreasing or decreasing slowly among the underclass and the brown people.

The end result is global average intelligence decreasing significantly.

We are in for some fun times.

Global average IQ is around 89 and is decreasing.

Your daily reminder that global average intelligence is decreasing..

>>10052735
you are engaging in pointless sophistry and you know it

bottom line is that it takes certain average intelligence to create and sustain a modern, developed society, and this average intelligence may not be possible in low IQ population clusters such as prevalent in third world

couple that with the threat of climate change affecting mainly equatorial areas, and it does not look good for the development of their society at all

newest UN population projections were revised up and we are looking at 12 billion humans in 2100, most of them in Africa and middle east, and their population growth while slowing down will not stop

developed world + China may yet get rid of the addiction to fossil fuels through advanced technology (renewables, nuclear)

third world is fucked, tough, and the best thing to do is to take measures so that it does not take down the rest of the planet with them
