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
Well it's kind a trick question.
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.
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.
but heritability isn't concerned with how genetic the trait is, it's concerned with how genetic the variance of the trait is
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
so even though the trait strikes us as extremely genetic, the heritability is extremely low
Ah I see. Then it's not that important to my point or to race realism.
Correct. But racerealists constantly sight the bell curve which has strong focus on heritability.
And Charles Murray in interviews has demonstrated a lack of understanding regarding the meaning of the word.
In it doesn't he mention the whole x% of IQ is hereditary thing?
yes he has some weird layman understanding of heritabilit in which genetics determine the percentage of IQ you have
which on its own doesn't make much sense to me as a model but that's a different discussion
Well the Bell curve isn't my only source. There was a study done on the heredity of IQ that I've got somewhere

Look at average IQ per nation.
what about it?
Marked differences.
yes and?

@louis⚡ congrats?
Cringe
Those test are unreliable but being left is chill
Bieng right wing is pro hierarchy which is cringe, also imagine nor wanting to have economic rights not given.
Being a communist, however, is being chill.

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

You crypto leftist
the spectrum test is kinda useless.
The only reason I got that is because I don't think your own people should starve
it lacks nuance
