It is silly to think all people are born with the same potential. People adapted to different areas of the world and had differing needs. This would effect the brain development.

@Zavjeru people agreeing that IQ is racial saying that genetic differentiation between people who appear to be the same race cannot lead to the same thing happening, an IQ gap.

really makes u tink

race and IQ are linked

https://www.technologyreview.com/s/610339/dna-tests-for-iq-are-coming-but-it-might-not-be-smart-to-take-one/

Race and IQ are linked because of genetic clusters

So there can be intraracial IQ gaps that are huge too

of course

but race is the best easily identifiable way to estimate

you can't say race and IQ are linked

it makes no sense

saying they are not does not make sense to me

maybe I am wrong, im open to hearing the case for both!

make, form, or suggest a connection with or between.

no connection huh

different races are shown to have different IQs on average. there are always outliers to this but the data speak for itself

There is also no real connection with survival rates when falling from 10,000 feet and parachutes

because someone survived a 10,000 foot drop without a parachute

y'all are going into this with the assumption that IQ is genetic

to justify that IQ is based on race

the data seems to suggest that

you're assuming that it's fixed to say it's fixed

the data doesn't say that

culture could be a factor

literally someone's environment

y'all are going into this with the assumption that parachutes increase safety
to justify that parachutes are good to use when falling

well whats your evidence that its not? because my evidence that it is can be shown via bell curves and regional test scores

I added onto that Gwyn

literally you can survive 1/1,000,000 times without it

''you're assuming that it's fixed to say it's fixed''

@Deleted User if you have evidence that race and IQ arent linked id like to hear it

there is no evidence to suggest it

to suggest that they are?

yes

there have been multiple studies done i can link them if you would lik

unless they know the specific gene that fixes someone's IQ then don't sendit

send it

show the specific gene that sets someone's height

You can actually do that thi

Tho

they haven't found the specific gene yet
