The databases are available for anyone to access too. Amazing.
I can't find the article right now, but I distinctly remember the NIH (I think it was) updating their policy on who gets to access the genetic database - and specifically saying that if your goal is to find genetic links to race, they would deny you access.
They're trying to avoid more of this (this is a parody of XKCD, using the comic's normal method of persuasion)
"Science" as a system, as an institution, is pretty heavily corrupted. A few people are willing to speak out on it, but they risk their careers when they do. Everyone knows what happened to James Watson.
Still, here's one example:
And here's her talking about the backlash:
There's a bit of an "Emperor's New Clothes" thing going on with Leftists and race. A lot of them do see the truth (they see that the emperor is naked) but they actively, consciously, deliberately choose to lie and say that they don't see it because (a) they fear the consequences
to themselves, i.e. their careers and their social lives, and (b) as the study below suggests, they fear the consequences
for society as mentioned by the XKCD parody above.
This is apparently a problem that's unique to Leftists. Here's a study that I think about a lot:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/325033477_Equalitarianism_A_Source_of_Liberal_Bias
Specifically, "study 6" - they showed participants one of two fake news stories, let's call them (A) and (B).
News story (A) claimed that a scientific study had found that whites are smarter than blacks due to their genes.
News story (B) claimed that a scientific study had found that blacks are smarter than whites due to their genes.
They'd show one of those to a participant and ask them, "do you think this story is accurately reporting the scientific finding" - then, no matter what the participant said, they'd go "lol jk it's actually the opposite" ...and then ask them if they believe it's real.
So just to clarify, some people are shown (A) and asked if they think it's real, and some of those people will say "yeah that's probably real" ...then they'd be told it was made up and (B) is the article ...and asked if that's real.
You would think that some people "trust the science" and thus would say
both (A) and (B) are real, or neither are real. But Leftists in particular, when shown (A) they'd say, "no that's not real" then when switched to (B) they'd say "yeah that's probably real" and vice versa.
Check out the white bar on the far left of this graph. It's the lowest bar on the graph. That's liberals (leftists) being shown an article which claims that whites are smarter than blacks.
They reject the science! The highest bar (the most acceptance) for leftists is when you tell them that blacks are smarter than whites.
It's the opposite for conservatives ...but so what? The conservatives are right! There is actual evidence of a genetic link to IQ and it does actually favor whites. So if you see a news story that says "actually, blacks are smarter" then the appropriate thing to do is to dismiss it!
This paper pulled the same trick with "men are smarter than women" and some other topics. It's really fascinating.
the idea, in theory, is sound- never GIVE UP on a kid, never let someone who wants to learn fall because they're not catching up to the smart kids
The military used to work that way. They wanted bodies, so they'd accept people and send them to training, and if you failed training, they'd just make you do it again. The result was, everyone with a qualification on their record had actually earned that qualification. Not sure if it still works that way.
Blacks would do much better in society if education worked like that. Don't promote them to the next grade until they learn the material. Definitely don't admit them to university by lowering the standards just for them! Instead, say "okay, you didn't score high enough on the MCAT to be a doctor right now, but here's a free course you can attend, and try again next year!"
If that was the policy, then you would know for a fact that every doctor, even a black doctor, met the standard. Instead, because they lower the standards for blacks, what you know is that an asian doctor had to meet a higher standard than a black doctor ...thus it's in your best interest to go to an asian doctor.
don't act like black people don't do the same thing that this thread does elsewhere. You used to be able to search 'yt' on twitter (probably still can) and see thousands of black people complaining about how much they hate 'yt people'. You can go to reddit and they have entire subs dedicated to hating white people. This thread is no different
shout out to the autists at 4chan for putting together gigantic collages of twitter posts. This was all back before Elon, when you would get banned in an instant for saying "it's okay to be white" - but twitter was happy to let hatred of whites stay up.
All the people who clutch their pearls and say, "zomg because of Elon there's racism on twitter!!" no, there was racism before, but you were okay with it.
