Scientific Racism

[Sheikh_Speare]

I prefer to keep my own racism primitive and unscientific, like my father and his father before him.

I don't need your high-falutin' Yankee city boy racism with its Darwinist witchcraft. All I need is a pamphlet explaining how niggers are literally descended from Satan and made out of mud.

Is Figure 3 supposed to be a weapon similar to the Macuahuitl?

Maybe, but it also has a point, so I'm not too certain.

The funny thing is that a lot of the stories and myths surrounding why people are different colors/races often use mud and clay as an example, and always paint the storyteller's race as the perfect reseult of God's creation and the other races as either "staying in the kiln for too long" or "not being in the kiln long enough"

Like for a Anthropology class we read 3 different stories (from a long ass time ago) explaining the differences in people from Uganda, Italy and Ecuador.

Literally all three stories were about God making mankind out of clay and baking them to make them the "right" color. So like in Italy the story goes that God falls asleep and accidentally makes brown and black people. In Uganda its that God is too impatient and accidentally makes white and brown people. And in Ecuador its that God messed up 2 times and made black and white people until he found the happy medium.

Moral of the story: People are made of clay and God fucks up a lot.

Probably at the time origin myths came about, clay was the first thing humans could easily use to make sculptures and other depictions.

"Intelligence" is a very amorphous term. While it is not at all farfetched that populations in different areas would evolve according to their environment, whatever way they may change is ultimately for the benefit and survival of the population. This could lead to different skills becoming more prevalent. Any difference in "intelligence" between human populations would probably be in regards to certain kinds of intelligence. For example, one population could be more social, another with better spacial reasoning, ect.
However, given that our ability to solve problems and use advanced tools is the main reason we are the apex of apex predators, it's highly unlikely that one population of humans would be "dumber" than another.

(Just for curiosity's sake, how is the percentage of minority kiwis?)

Y'know who else was white?

No race is one hundred percent pure. If someone were indeed 100% aryan, they'd be inbred as fuck.

Is there a clear and distinct relationship/correlation between someone's race or ethnicity and their IQ or intelligence? Or does it more have to do with the environment they were raised in? Or is it an (near) equal mixture of both? Does evolution play a role in this? How should this knowledge be applied by society and culture?

I ask because I remember reading opinions like those on Stormfront stating that, say, black people are, on average, simply stupider than white people because "the IQ research said so!" Which I'm almost certain is a vast oversimplification of IQ research, and muddies the waters and poisons the well against something potentially very useful for society.

Different races have different facial features, different rates at which they get diseases, different muscular make-up, different bone structure, etc. I'd be surprised if there wasn't, on average, at least some difference between races in intelligence.

 

[Rumpled Foreskin]

This thread is pretty racy.

 

[UW 411]

Certain tribes (that make up the majority of some races) have been documented with markedly lower IQs than more modern civilisations. Many Western countries have higher IQs among different races. It's probably nature + nurture. We learn together, more isolated groups/cultures aren't able to learn or grasp the same concepts that larger settlements of humans can together. Some third world countries have lower IQs in comparison, likely due to several economical factors, less industry and development, less education, less GDP.

I'd say that race is certainly a factor, though environmental factors can maximize a persons overall intelligence.

An IQ lower than 70 is officially recognized as mental retardation.

That maps suggests that there are whole countries that are on average lower than 70.
Gotta press X here.

 

[User names must be unique]

If you were to average out the historic IQs of developed nations you'd see a massive spike upwards, 100 years ago Europeans and Americans were scoring just above mental retardation by our modern standards. see the flynn effect

The only way to judge the races is to examine blacks inside developed nations and they're consistently lower, not so low as your average African but lower than your average white.

 

[IV 445]

An IQ lower than 70 is officially recognized as mental exceptionalism.

That maps suggests that there are whole countries that are on average lower than 70.

The bell curve believers do a lot of stupid shit in this argument when they double down on this. “That’s because they *are* re.tarded!” Uh-huh. Most of Africa can’t even dress themselves or function you say?

Also they take data from China, the biggest fraudsters on the planet, and present it as scientific fact that gooks are smarter than their fetishized fantasy of a beautiful white race.

Give me a break. IQ is a measure of test-taking ability, period.

american blacks arent that far above 70 either, and those have a pretty large amount of white admixture

Niggers may be dumb. But we are talking about short bus dumb here.

This is the kind of thinking that the Nazis used to justify eugenics, with the only difference being that the trends are based on unbiased evidence.
The question you should be asking isn't whether the information is true, but how the results would matter to you. I have a sneaking suspicion a lot of people would love it as an argument-winner in autistic online debates over 'muh racial superiority' rather than for any practical reason.

I would have to kill myself because my dumb non-Japanese ass is polluting this world.

Then you probably have extreme self-esteem issues and that's a whole other field of mental studies

 

[Anonymousshitposter09]

Is there a clear and distinct relationship/correlation between someone's race or ethnicity and their IQ or intelligence?

There probably is because we evolved in different environments but I doubt the solution is to "peacefully cleanse" non-europeans/eastern asians.

Most likely the solution will come in the form of technology like CRISPR:

So yes, a fully-black afrofuturistic Wakandan civilization might become possible one of these days.
