But I am familiar with his kind, so I will make a general statement.
What is his kind?
Jared Taylor is a hereditarian i.e. he believes the black/white IQ gap is heritable.
Heritability basically means measured variation between individuals is a % result of genetic differences
we can determine this between individuals with twin studies
How it basically works is you get a group of fraternal and identical twins
If the identical twins are more similar in let's say height
you measure their height to be on average more similar
You know that even though both groups have the same "shared environment" at home, the identical twins ended up more similar as a result of greater genetic similarity
We assume that its' a 50% increase in genetic similarity
comparing identical to fraternal
And if you see a 40% increase in correlation of scores i.e. greater similarity that would roughly work out to a .9 heritability coefficient
or 90% of differences in height between individuals are a result of genetic differences
so what even is the argument here?
Is Jarod Taylor a white supremacist
I think
i dont know whom that is
So Jared Taylor is a "white supremacist" for believing that the black/white IQ gap is heritable
I do think that if you constantly atribute positive characteristics to white people (like high IQ) and then attribute negative characteristics to africans (being agresive) and then say that the cause that white people have all this positive attributes, and africans these negative atributes, is race. that yes, you then are implying that white people are superior to at least african.
Sometimes it helps to listen
ohhhh
lmao
yeah in that case i would say that he is racist, but not a white supremacist
Would you say genetic differences are responsible for height differences between East Asians and whites? Even in Japan, Korea, or in East Asians in Western countries, a height difference remains. Even though they're generally wealthier than native whites. Most reasonable people would concede that racial gap in height is heritable
Just like height, IQ is a highly heritable trait
Just like height, IQ is a highly polygenic trait
I mean, depends on how you mean deny.
I don't know why we would assume 0% heritability in racial gaps in intelligence when height is a highly heritable trait
Why do races being different mean they are inherently inferior or superior?
Let's slow down
And let me answer your first question
yes, like how chimps and humans have different iq's, but with humans i believe it is the quality of education, which tends to lack in black communities
alright
Rather than calling people who do these studies and find these differences racist, I'd be more inclined to have them press further to find out why those differences exist. o.o
^
I don't deny that there are average differences in certain qualities between races no
I mean it could be flaws in the studies. Flaws created by racial bias. Or it could be something else entirely.
i believe that there is a reason for this difference. Like how in most areas blacks have lower quality of education, where as most white communities have good schools
For your second claim
