PEESA GAWBAGE

tim rages against race realism again in one of his latest videos, so lets get some science on:
https://thealternativehypothesis.org/index.php/2016/04/15/the-heritability-of-iq/

IQ is largely heritable, this was proven by twin studies (and others, but lets take twins as an example), where the twins have the exact same DNA (monozygotic twins), but raised seperatly, their IQs correlate .76 (its .86 when raised in the same household)
this means that environment accounted for only 20% of the difference in IQ between people with the same DNA raised in different environments.

this 20% does not explain the much larger gap between races on the IQ front in america. it does however explain the average black iq in american blacks being ~85 vs the african sub80, as the environment is just so much better on average in america.

so no, raising blacks, asian style, wont give them ~120 IQs (like asians). i would estimate based on these numbers it would give them an average of 90-95 at most, as environments only explain 20% of the difference between IQs.

conclusion: you can change culture to improve IQ in traditionally lower IQ communities in america, by forcing them to adopt another communities culture (good luck lmao) but even then the change will be very modest and almost certainly not worth the cost.

there is also the funny lil detail of why non race realists believe that evolution differences between the races somehow would stop before they reach the brain..

real puzzler that

everything can be affected by evolution, except the brain for some reason, no that would be bad

also scribbehatch is being rude again

its prolly against the rules, but i didnt read em so i wouldnt know

So we're not gonna pay any attention to the Thomas Sowells.

That's good.

Let's ignore them.

"Those are exceptions" I agree. Let's ignore them.

all i am saying is that if a 200IQ black person comes into your buisness to apply for a job and you dont hire him because of the average IQ of his race, you likely arent asian

--How do you know a high iq has entered your business?

Do you test him on the spot?

"You're splitting hairs on my argument"

I'm dead serious though.

It's something you can't tell by looking.

i bet you cant name a single task which success does not correlate with IQ

Answer my question.

i did

No.

And I'm going to haunt you with that question.

everything a applicant does

correlates with IQ

Oh fuck off, you have no clue how shitty most interviews are.

unless he tries to learn to ride a bike on the spot

People do NOT know what they're doing.

no i definatly havent been to dozens of interviews applying for jobs

Wait, what's happening here?

Are we in a parallel universe where we can't listen to stories of other people? o:

Thanks for the alert.

That's a big difference between where I came from and where I am now.

No idea how I get here.

It's good to have friends in parallel universes.

success odds of crossing the various hurdles interviewers set before potential applicants correlates with IQ, rather highly

as a matter of fact, it would be weird if it didnt, cause almost everything else correlates with IQ

The thing about “race realism” is that it’s generally annoying when you deal with low IQ white people who think they are smarter than you because the color of their skin.

So in day to day life, for me, it’s better to ignore it.

all i was claiming with my lil wall of text there tho, was that timcast once again claimed its all culture, where in fact, culture is part of that 20% difference, where the majority of still comes from genes

So what other scientific claims should we ignore because they're inaccessible to low-IQ whites?

Genetic determinists, like all determinists, are a waste of time for me to listen to for anyone trying to become a high achiever.
