there's no neurological differences between races which can't be accounted for when factoring in a handful of other factors, including language and wealth

for one

2018-09-09 06:11:41 UTC  

Also

Vietnam is one of the poorest countries in the world, yet they have some of the highest PISA scores

2018-09-09 06:11:59 UTC  

btw

2018-09-09 06:12:02 UTC  

I should point out

2018-09-09 06:12:04 UTC  

Saudi Arabia is one of the richest

2018-09-09 06:12:10 UTC  

that IQ is a pretty damn terrible way to measure intelligence

<:brainlet:487682295889920016>

2018-09-09 06:12:24 UTC  

it's far too narrow

2018-09-09 06:12:25 UTC  

Not really, IQ has been proven to correlate with success

2018-09-09 06:12:27 UTC  

just shut up

2018-09-09 06:12:30 UTC  

Oh-ho-ho

2018-09-09 06:12:31 UTC  

really?

2018-09-09 06:12:32 UTC  

It's narrow, yes

2018-09-09 06:12:36 UTC  

No, it isn't.

2018-09-09 06:12:40 UTC  

Look at the...

2018-09-09 06:12:44 UTC  

"Termites", were they?

2018-09-09 06:12:59 UTC  

The best and brightest - those with California's highest IQs, as decided by state administered tests

2018-09-09 06:13:09 UTC  

They turned out... okay... Average, mostly

2018-09-09 06:13:26 UTC  

But some of those passed up actually achieved greater feats

2018-09-09 06:15:10 UTC  

I'm not going to argue this

2018-09-09 06:15:12 UTC  

but yeah, beyond the failure's of terman

2018-09-09 06:15:14 UTC  

What I will point out, however

2018-09-09 06:15:16 UTC  

and IQ in general

2018-09-09 06:15:19 UTC  

is that by any metric

2018-09-09 06:15:28 UTC  

Even if you want to go by something like standardized tests

2018-09-09 06:15:30 UTC  

for example

2018-09-09 06:15:32 UTC  

Just an example

2018-09-09 06:15:36 UTC  

In all areas

2018-09-09 06:15:38 UTC  

you cant argue with shit

2018-09-09 06:15:42 UTC  

Blacks and Hispanics are always at the bottom

2018-09-09 06:15:46 UTC  

also correlates to education

2018-09-09 06:15:46 UTC  

Period.

2018-09-09 06:15:46 UTC  

you really cant

2018-09-09 06:15:53 UTC  

/education quality

2018-09-09 06:15:54 UTC  

As for them getting bad education

2018-09-09 06:16:01 UTC  

Pretty debatable
