That’s what you’re gonna tell the high IQ black person who is annoyed of all these other people “predicting” them a low IQ? “Hey man I’m sorry it’s just he best tool of prediction I’ve got”

2018-09-01 16:02:26 UTC  

This is, essentially, it.

2018-09-01 16:02:46 UTC  

well you gotta get more data ofc

2018-09-01 16:02:56 UTC  

assuming this person applies for a job you got his resume

2018-09-01 16:03:04 UTC  

Also, As Tim says, it's of far more worth to focus on issues of Class

2018-09-01 16:03:06 UTC  

which is much stronger data then the average IQ of his race

2018-09-01 16:03:14 UTC  

You're more likely to get more far reaching gains that way.

2018-09-01 16:03:18 UTC  

I’m talking just seeing them on the street

2018-09-01 16:03:23 UTC  

i still say tim is wrong on that front tho

2018-09-01 16:03:36 UTC  

Not for a job interview

2018-09-01 16:03:44 UTC  

class is part of environment, which only explains 20% difference between people

2018-09-01 16:03:54 UTC  

For instance - The presence of Lead tends to lead towards lower IQ

2018-09-01 16:04:09 UTC  

i agree, but i love lead flavored crisps tho

2018-09-01 16:04:12 UTC  

Lower class communities are more likely to use lead pipes

2018-09-01 16:04:24 UTC  

to still have them,

2018-09-01 16:04:31 UTC  

Or to still have paint with lead chips

2018-09-01 16:04:39 UTC  

<:TimThink:482277772497125378>

2018-09-01 16:04:42 UTC  

i blame willy wonka

2018-09-01 16:04:52 UTC  

they taught an entire generation to lick walls

2018-09-01 16:04:56 UTC  

What would happen if we were to remove Lead from those communities, which happen to be largely black?

2018-09-01 16:05:00 UTC  

Tim is wrong to think that pure meritocracy doesn't produce racially sorted outcomes exactly as IQ studies predict.

2018-09-01 16:05:02 UTC  

I agree focusing on class but at the same time class is something you arent born with

2018-09-01 16:05:03 UTC  

flavored wallpaper is terribad

2018-09-01 16:05:09 UTC  

You can inherit class

2018-09-01 16:05:23 UTC  

Like being adopted

2018-09-01 16:05:45 UTC  

No, but Class has much more difficult upward mobility than it does downward.

2018-09-01 16:05:54 UTC  

if you give the highest potential individuals the best schooling, you will get much better results then trying to lets lower potential individuals play catchup

2018-09-01 16:06:09 UTC  

But what if i was adopted by a rich family ?

2018-09-01 16:06:13 UTC  

and i say that understanding that in king cytos kindom, Harvard would be full of asians

2018-09-01 16:06:20 UTC  

My point exactly

2018-09-01 16:06:22 UTC  

My class auto magically jumps

2018-09-01 16:06:25 UTC  

What if I won the lottery?

2018-09-01 16:06:27 UTC  

Ahh ok

2018-09-01 16:06:37 UTC  

Anyways, Crytos, can you not see how it’s annoying for a high IQ black guy to be constantly “statistically” predicted as low IQ because of the color of his skin?

2018-09-01 16:06:40 UTC  

Lotrery wont change ur class if ur dumb

2018-09-01 16:06:42 UTC  

your environment would improve a lot

2018-09-01 16:06:46 UTC  

Exactly.

2018-09-01 16:06:51 UTC  

Lots of lottery winners end up losing

2018-09-01 16:06:51 UTC  

Because downward mobility is much easier.

2018-09-01 16:07:02 UTC  

Yes

2018-09-01 16:07:03 UTC  

but that would only account for a maximum of 20% difference explained vs when you wouldnt have won the lottery
