america had eugenics programs for most of its history, as well as europe
Go on.
i don't capitalize america either, sorry im retarded
Nazis made eugenics look evil even thought their eugenics were mostly bullshit
true
their understanding of race was unscientific
I get a kick out of Phrenology.
That stuff was whacky
isnt that just brain shape
Is that like the skull thing from Django unchained
The shape and texture of the brain determines mental issues and personality
is that not true tho
It is untrue.
It's a pseudo-science as it was studied.
Perhaps something similar could have some truth,
but not as it was used for eugenics
the shape of the brain doesn't determine or evidences psychopathy, for example.
But different races do have different skull shapes
And that can correlate to success, morality, etc..
T R U
Phrenology is correct
In the sense races have different skills and the avg IQ for black races is 65
Skulls**
Again, I'm not sure the size or measurements of the skulls are factors in determining that.
It's correctly classified as a pseudo-science.
A false practice.
Not that you can identify the IQ based on a skull but given the race you can guess the probability they would be a certain iq
In a convoluted way, I suppose.
But phrenology was deeper than that.
Also brain size and IQ are correlated so big heads 💪
Even a bump in a certain area, or a "dent" could mean the difference between one who is feebleminded or normal.
Furthermore, they pinpointed areas of the brain where "morality" was located, and other traits of personality, which is erroneous.
The brain isn't a house with many rooms as they believed it to be.
Daily reminder that black people are awesome
We wuz artists and shiet
Does look pretty cool.
Wouldn't think it was African tbh
They have some cool art
