Once you accept IQ is genetics, the leap is straightforward
Is IQ really correlated with race?
IQ is genetically cringed*
Correlation is not Causation
Give me a smart black guy and dumb black guy
and tell me if they can't git gud
?
and yes iq is correlated with racew
but I think it's environmental
Also race in general wasn't even a concept of color of skin until some dude ironically named coon invented the 5 Races idea.
It is though
Then why are policies such as affirmative action based on race
It is when we want to advantage black people?
Yes
Everyone accepts race
And it seems some race have higher IQ
Not anthropologists
not biologists.
Well most people accept the concept of race
doesn't make it useful nor scientifically true
Because its a political class of people who are and were oppressed
its not practical to look at their ancestry
on an individual basis.
Race wasn't even considered as color of skin until 1779 when Blumenbach proposed them in The Anthropological Treatises of Johann Friedrich Blumenbach.
Its all a social construct.
What we know is that generally, black people were and are treated unfairly in America.
Ok
Especially with regards to education
We also know that generally, black people have lower IQ
Schools in black area's will just be worst by virtue of having less funding
Not generally, statistically.
Yes true
Libertarians also have higher IQ's
than any other political group
You can't use race sometimes and deny it when you don't like it
How is that relevant?
Yes you can, I deny race as a scientific category
while also admitting it does exsist as a political group
and a descriptive group
Like red heads
