What is the point of this debate If you dont want any policy changes?
you're saying some fucking chechen in a hut in the mountains has a 140 IQ?
To find the truth...
Considering Whites and Asians made the best civilizations and blacks made the shittiest ones, it would make sense to call them inferior if what Charles says is true
By your standards maybe
@Fulcrum010 If I were to see a woman that is 6'3, would it be fair for me to make the claim that women are taller than men based on an individual case? That is a logical fallacy
@BrianBoru it didn't need to be said directly
Lol okay
could it perhaps be that civilizations that embrace meritocracy do the best?
Implying implications
did i said that all blacks have the same IQ i have? nope, i'm just saying that it isn't that uncommon, plus, individuals with 120+ are rare, independent of their races
has it occurred to anyone that the cultural construct that is 'blackness' in the US which totally rejects meritocracy as 'being white' could perhaps contribute to the IQ deficit?
@radeon Why would meritocracy be more prevalent in Caucasian countries than in Negroid countries? The Chinese do not live in a meritocracy, yet their average IQ is higher than that of white countries.
the Japanese do
so do the jews
and there are plenty of white cultures that aren't meritocratic
Right, cultural factors
That doesn't make racial differences go away
You just made the claim that meritocracy results in a higher average IQ, and since the Chinese live in a strictly collectivist system, your hypothesis can be deemed to be false
they don't
They are far more collectivist culturally
i don't know how much you know about modern china but they are capitalism in a pseudo-communist framework
they don't value hard work as much as they value the quantity of work
China is more capitalist than America in fact
Also, the vast majority of African countries live in a capitalist system, so the idea that meritocracy could have effected the IQ within a few centuries to such an extent is just ridiculous, especially when you consider the brain volume differences within the races, as well as genetic variations
At least that's what i hear
they build apartment complexes that house nobody simply to support a housing bubble
same with the chinese really. Poor work ethics, and poor overall efficiency, but a LOT of work hours makes up for it.
sorry Japanese*
yea im sure zimbabwe is a real ancap paradise my dude
Meritocracy is more than just capitalism
Meritocracy does not result in a higher average IQ, unless you can point me to a study which proves such a claim
did you just skip the chapter of history class where the ANC took ideoligcal contro lof southern africa with backing by the soviet union?
We're considering complex factors. Don't demand a study for such an abstract idea
you're trying to shift the burden of proof.
you came to us.
There are many perfectly reasonable explanations to IQ variations, that can be proved by looking at genetics and differing evolutionary pressures on populations living in different environments.
Then we need more race mixing
Lol why?
