Social Sciences are actually quite useful. And no, I don't mean "Gender Studies" or something like that. Pyschology, political science, sociology all uncover and root through what makes up humanity. Things which can't be tested and quantified as readily or easily as the STEM degrees.

The problem is you guys have no fucking standards regarding proof and inject your bullshit unfounded beliefs into fields that belong in the domain of the hard sciences, like genetics.

It is my understanding from following many evopsych types and a bit of reading that there is literally no actual consensus on inherent IQ differences between races, largely because it has not been properly studied (yeah I know Minnesota twin studies blah blah they're not enough). I have not been able to find any credible academic who is actually able to say outright 'yes, there are inherent differences in intelligence between races.' They all say, at most, 'there may be inherent differences in intelligence between races, but we haven't been able to, and may not be able to, properly study this to come to a concrete conclusion.' IQ as heritable is scientific consensus, for sure, but it's not enough to draw racial conclusions.

If somebody wants to convince me of a need for segregation, I'm amenable to cultural or aesthetic arguments, on which there are much better grounds to argue. I think anyone who asserts that races are inherently smarter/dumber is asserting something they wouldn't be able to prove if pushed. Emphasis on inherent is because it is obvious that on average different ethnic groups are smarter than others at any given time, but the question is one of potential.

This stems back to what I said, IQ as a concept is largely bullshit. The reason there are no big studies on it is because the social sciences have yet to come up with a good replacement for it that works better. So those kind of studies are basically on the back burner till they work out some larger issues with their criteria.

Clannishness is not a bad thing. We like to stick to our own. The problem is that everyone is expected to ignore that. When working at a hard job, skin color doesn't matter because that job becomes your clan. If, outside of work, you head to your own areas... why is that a problem?

If anything, fighting AGAINST our innate clannishness is proving to be a detriment.

Agreed. We can't fight clannishness. What we can change is what kind of clan we have.

You aren't entirely wrong, but you are partially wrong. There IS a definite bias issue within the social sciences, there is ALSO some overlap between scientific disciplines like genetics and something like psychology.


There ARE standards of proof, but the criteria which must be met are still... in the works. Unlike the hard sciences, the social sciences are fairly new. Modern social sciences, existing less than a century.

Precious Child's stream in LA just encountered a based black man on the freeway who asked what the marchers were protesting, presumably after sitting in his car for however long they were stuck on the onramp.

As PC started to explain and got to the part about the jogger getting shot the man asked "why" in response to learning that Kizzy was running from the police.

He then went on a rant about not putting himself in a position to be shot the police. :story:

I'll see if I can get a clip.

This might be something or nothing. It comes from a good source, so...

BLM attacker @niquealex has relationship with Dallas Chief of Police @ChiefHallDPD. The security agent who PROTECTED the crowd from BLM was taken to the Jack Evans Police HQ and is NOT being released!!!

Not sure what to make of it at all. He's usually pretty reliable (my source).

Lots of chimping out though!

You do realize what being clannish means right?

Let me put it this way. You do realize why homo sapiens is the only species left of the human race right?

You aren't going to win anyone over with condescension.

We, as a species, are capable of getting along with eachother. Clannishness doesn't mean that we will always, without question, beat eachother to death. Simply asserting it isn't an argument for your point, and isn't doing your position any favors.

the only thing we need is the right of free association, which we have. people will get along with who they get along with.

segregation on the whole is fucking stupid, the only segregation that makes sense is segregating criminals away from everyone else.
