Never forget that Carpalorbit was too much of a coward to answer this question:
Hey Carpalorbit, I have a question for you; do you believe there is such a thing as a group difference? Like, do you believe such differences are ever possible? If I was to make a statement like, "men are taller, on average, than women" - will you fire back with, "not necessarily, I have seen really tall women and really short men."
But the answer is now clear: Carpalorbit denies that any group differences are even possible. I predict Carpalorbit will cover for this irrationality with sarcasm.
If the things you believe are true then why isn't it in textbooks or taught in school?
This is as dumb as saying, in China, "if Tiananmen Square happened then why isn't it in Chinese textbooks or taught in Chinese schools??"
This is why Appeal to Authority is a logical fallacy.
Regardless, the science
IS on my side, whether it's taught in government schools or not.
Race is real. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) is one avenue of proof. It is
not possible to use PCA to argue for a group difference that doesn't have a genetic component. For example, if I tried to claim there was a genetic difference between Star Trek fans and Star Wars fans ...I could
not find a genetic difference with PCA to support that.
But for race, I can:
So okay, race is real. Now what? Well, now we ask that the consequences of racial differences are.
For a start, there's a difference in average IQ:
BUT WAIT you say, that difference is due to socioeconomic factors!
The truth: 80% of it is genetic. All other causes combined (literally whatever other cause you want to claim) makes up no more than 20% of the difference Source:

Quote: heritability of intelligence increases from about 20% in infancy to perhaps 80% in later adulthood
There's also (and famously) a difference in criminality. I'm sure you're familiar with the FBI crime statistics which show that black people commit more than 50% of murders in the US, even though they make up only 13% of the population.
"b...but that's just socioeconomic factors!!!" you cry.
The correlation to poverty is weak (just 0.36) but the correlation to race is strong.
And the criminality of black people in the US is not even unusual, when compared to other black populations.
We even know (at least one of) the genes responsible: a genetic polymorphism found in the upstream region of the monoamine oxidase A - source:

Quote: African-American males who carry the 2-repeat allele are significantly more likely than all other genotypes to engage in shooting and stabbing behaviors and to report having multiple shooting and stabbing victims.
Finally, racial differences in outcomes show up far too early to be due to anything other than genetics.
The inability to be a racist sperg in public without somebody kicking your teeth in does not equate to bullying.
lol. By definition, it is bullying. It's bullying
even if you're right and I'm wrong.
If you go around punching flat earthers until they shut up, you are bullying them, not proving them wrong ...even though flat earthers are wrong - you're still bullying them.
