the more likely you are gonna develop mental illness

Einstein had huge short-term memory loss and needed a secretary to write down everything he wrote

Well if it's 70% genetic then the current difference in IQ couldn't be explained with environment

It would be largely genetic too

There's a threshold where too much IQ can be bad for you

probably because brain cant handle the 200 IQ

or w/e

Totally. However, how much of that 70% is directly from you being black or white? What effect does your ethnicity have on your genetic intelligence. Zero research on this.
People will take the fact that genetics account for about 70% of IQ and then run off with it throwing out statements with zero context.

Skin color doesn't affect IQ at all.

Your brain doesn't develop extra melanin

Race is a bullshit category

No but some skin color are correlated with a smarter brain

that would be the claim

If you want to look at IQ and genes, look at ancestry.

@lemonsaw and certain political groups of people have higher IQ's

ironically

the only problem with extra melanin in your body

Libertarians have the highest IQ's

is a lack of vitamin D

>Libertarians have the highest IQ

What's the relevance?

and therefore the most mentally ill

It's a correlation

not a causation

Whats the relevance of race?

If that's even true

Well that's easy

GG @lemonsaw, you just advanced to level 2!

You can't attribute it to melanin even if its true.

Or whatever phenotypic traits you want.

Why do we have affirmative action then

We allow certain races to be prioritized in the education system

Because black people were disadvantaged in America on the basis of their race.

But if intelligence was based on genetics

Doesn't mean that it's a legitimate scientific category.

It can be

that would prove it's not caused by their disadvange

but by their genes

No you can have it be both enviromental

and genetic.

Yes
