The IQ thing, while interesting has nothing to do with farm murders or right wing economic systems so Willem had zero reason to bring it up unless he was trying to inflame racial tension

2018-09-28 22:08:36 UTC  

I argued the IQ thing on that discord with lots of people

2018-09-28 22:08:56 UTC  

arminius mostly

2018-09-28 22:10:05 UTC  

first point is that most of the people coming with that angle on the channel and pushing things were not south african

2018-09-28 22:10:16 UTC  

I'm not familiar with Willems discord. I usually only come hear for Renaldos post video discussions

2018-09-28 22:10:16 UTC  

GG @SeizeTheMeans, you just advanced to level 3!

2018-09-28 22:10:25 UTC  

sure

2018-09-28 22:10:36 UTC  

what is your opinion on it?

2018-09-28 22:11:15 UTC  

I have my own ideas, but I feel like if we aren't allowed to talk about it - that is a problem in itself

2018-09-28 22:11:28 UTC  

I think there may be a difference in average IQs across races however this should not be a reason for racial discrimination or segregation

2018-09-28 22:11:39 UTC  

agree 200%

2018-09-28 22:12:06 UTC  

IQ is easy to test, therefore test for it (certainly 5 million times easier to ascertain than race)\

2018-09-28 22:12:36 UTC  

Even if blacks were less intelligent than whites (theoretically, I have not done research to be able to claim so) there would still be millions of above average blacks and millions of below average whites in SA

2018-09-28 22:12:48 UTC  

absolutely true

2018-09-28 22:13:05 UTC  

And you would have to remove rights for whites too. And then Willems whole white nation shit falls apart

2018-09-28 22:13:40 UTC  

in a population of 50 million with an average of 75IQ means 4.5million have > 125IQ

2018-09-28 22:14:04 UTC  

Exactly, that's the whole population of Cape town for example

2018-09-28 22:14:57 UTC  

but still we should be allowed to discuss ideas, like I can say dutch people are hella tall without raising any eyebrows

2018-09-28 22:15:18 UTC  

And if those with higher IQs work in the suburbs and cities and those with lower IQs do rural work you may never need to meet a low IQ person in your life

2018-09-28 22:16:03 UTC  

IQ is such a small part of the picture, not wanting to meet 'low IQ' individuals is in itself questionable

2018-09-28 22:16:11 UTC  

The Dutch example is interesting but nobody has ever used their height as a reason to deny them rights like IQ has for black people

2018-09-28 22:16:35 UTC  

the US military discriminates on IQ

2018-09-28 22:16:43 UTC  

because it's life and death

2018-09-28 22:17:52 UTC  

discriminating on race instead of IQ makes no sense, because IQ is easy to test for and race is impossible to test for

2018-09-28 22:17:53 UTC  

The US military hasn't flat out denied certain races based on their average IQ though. They test individuals. Systems like American segregation and Apartheid flat out took away black people's rights based on their supposed intelligence

2018-09-28 22:18:41 UTC  

I don't think intelligence was the ultimate motivation for grand apartheid

2018-09-28 22:18:56 UTC  

it was about cultural differences

2018-09-28 22:19:15 UTC  

but I'm going to get shat on here if I even talk about this stuff

2018-09-28 22:19:22 UTC  

It was certainly one of them. It's why blacks were given a dumbed down education system and used for hard labor

2018-09-28 22:21:07 UTC  

are you from south africa? have you seen the school system here? Nelson Mandela and Oliver Thambo were practicing lawyers in the 60s

2018-09-28 22:21:18 UTC  

If the stereotypical "black cultural traits" of laziness and looking for handouts were true, why would the Apartheid government make them do additional work? Wouldn't you want supposedly highly motivated whites doing the work because they have a better cultural work ethic?

2018-09-28 22:21:48 UTC  

@rob you know Mandela was educated in a missionary school right

Thankfully he was born too early for Bantu education

2018-09-28 22:22:59 UTC  

Bantu produced the Zuma's and his generation of politicians

2018-09-28 22:23:33 UTC  

you're right, sorry

2018-09-28 22:24:52 UTC  

Apartheid definitely fucked up a few generations of black South Africans. It's not being an SJW to admit this. It's just called having a bit of sympathy. Like a human

2018-09-28 22:27:55 UTC  

the people's war fucked up lives more than the bantu education

2018-09-28 22:28:05 UTC  

And the current government has absolutely failed it's people
