So
Do you agree with affirmative action?
Yes.
and if those two following premises were true:
IQ is based 100% on genetics
There is a IQ difference between race
No, it's absolutely not.
Im saying if it were true
That's not how fucking science works
or epistemology.
Let's say you accept the premises
I dont
Im just trying to isolate the part where we disagree
that's why im making an hypothetical
OK
Let's just say they were true
Why would we speak in hypotheticals...
Would you still agree with Affirmative action
Yes
Assuming the premises are true
Because it'd aid in providing extra knowledge to those who otherwise would be a burden on the system
and would allow them to function in society.
But you are stopping people with more potential achieve better
Make more classrooms
or more universities.
Then you're not advocating for affirmative action
I am, I'm advocating for the advantaging of certain groups of people on a political basis.
Because they have a disadvantage in society
Right?
I'm saying black people will have to go through things irrespective of their IQ's, in which, would make it harder for them to make it through school
and as such, I'd use the admissions process as a means of equalization due to this.
They're not really
if IQ is based on genetic
As mean as it sounds, it would just mean they're dumbed and can't achieve as much
You can have IQ be genetic and still recognize that black people are treated unfairly.
How
No I actually wouldn't be for affirmative action if "black people" were factually inferior mentally. Because its not other race's fault for their genetic inferiority. However, all of that is bullshit because black people, if black people are defined by the color of their skin and not their ethnic background or dna, have no evidence supporting their mental inferiority.
A low IQ white person wouldn't be disenfranchised as much as a low IQ black person
This is unfair treatment
