If you are correct, which isn't too improbable, that doesn't really change my point, just the language being potentially used. I don't know how heritable that would be. Presumably fairly high

2020-03-30 21:07:37 UTC  

Well it's kind a trick question.

2020-03-30 21:08:07 UTC  

Because the question of how heritable a trait is pretty much meaningless unless we specify a population. So let's just use the United States as an example.

2020-03-30 21:08:55 UTC  

Having two hands at birth is almost universally determined by our genetic code, it's the reason why most people don't have 3 hands, or feet for hands or something crazy like that.

2020-03-30 21:09:29 UTC  

but heritability isn't concerned with how genetic the trait is, it's concerned with how genetic the variance of the trait is

2020-03-30 21:10:19 UTC  

so in the US, the heritability of the trait "having two hands" is actually very close to zero, because barring any extremely rare genetic diseases, most people are going to have fewer hands through something like a workpalce accident

2020-03-30 21:10:47 UTC  

so even though the trait strikes us as extremely genetic, the heritability is extremely low

2020-03-30 21:11:29 UTC  

Ah I see. Then it's not that important to my point or to race realism.

2020-03-30 21:12:12 UTC  

Correct. But racerealists constantly sight the bell curve which has strong focus on heritability.

2020-03-30 21:12:33 UTC  

And Charles Murray in interviews has demonstrated a lack of understanding regarding the meaning of the word.

2020-03-30 21:13:16 UTC  

In it doesn't he mention the whole x% of IQ is hereditary thing?

2020-03-30 21:13:52 UTC  

yes he has some weird layman understanding of heritabilit in which genetics determine the percentage of IQ you have

2020-03-30 21:15:08 UTC  

which on its own doesn't make much sense to me as a model but that's a different discussion

2020-03-30 21:16:37 UTC  

Well the Bell curve isn't my only source. There was a study done on the heredity of IQ that I've got somewhere

2020-03-31 00:14:38 UTC  

Look at average IQ per nation.

2020-03-31 00:15:55 UTC  

what about it?

2020-03-31 00:23:42 UTC  

Marked differences.

2020-03-31 00:35:31 UTC  

yes and?

@louis⚡ congrats?

Those test are unreliable but being left is chill

2020-04-01 16:02:38 UTC  

Bieng right wing is pro hierarchy which is cringe, also imagine nor wanting to have economic rights not given.

2020-04-01 16:08:44 UTC  

Being a communist, however, is being chill.

last time I took one of those tests it plopped me in auth left.

You crypto leftist

2020-04-01 18:20:40 UTC  

the spectrum test is kinda useless.
The only reason I got that is because I don't think your own people should starve

2020-04-01 18:20:47 UTC  

it lacks nuance
