Are the inherent intellectual abilities of all races equal?
It's definitely not the same, but there's unfortunately no use for intellectual ability in today's society - everything can be done by someone with 110 IQ, even programming in Rust.

The world around us sucks and we all cope with it in different ways. I agree with both notjones and Insom on almost everything they say.

The damage done by environmental toxins is impossible to quantify
So if some group of people, hypothetically, has a slightly lower IQ, that proves absolutely nothing about if they are âinherentlyâ that way
Itâs not fucking possible to answer
We spent the entire 1900s huffing lead, at different levels, all over the world
Tunisia banned leaded gasoline in 2022. So if a study says Tunisians have slightly below average IQ, that doesnât âproveâ they are âjust stupid, racially inferiorâ or any nonsense like that.
Does something being "inherent" even matter? It's like saying that an element behaves X way in a vacuum - the fact is that some groups are lower IQ and you just have to deal with it however way you see fit. That's my opinion, at least.
"the lead hypothesis" is complete junk, been disproven, and I've posted about it here already.
Do you think the debunking of the lead hypothesis (bias etc..) could also apply to a lot of studies that you cite yourself?
People are also more likely to commit violent crimes in areas with high average temperatures, which has been proven.
Kinda pokes a few holes in the âScandinavian Chad Superior Geneticsâ meme I see some times
here's a question: what things are off-limits in regards to human variation.
height, hair texture, hair color, eye color, physical build, skull shape, lifespan, penis size, disease risk, and specific genetic issues are OK.
bar intelligence, what other variations can you not talk about.
I'm interested in what specific qualities of humans don't vary across populations for some UNANSWERED reason in respect to all the things that do.
Or it could be that high average temperature affects your genetics and cause lower IQ.
Donât think it works that way
It's literally all nonsense - you're both just dragons eating your tail.
Why wouldn't it? Nobody really knows anything - you and notjones both stated this in different ways.
He claimed that human reproduction is a black box.
The only thing I know is that I know nothing.

Are you trying to tell me lead doesnât settle in the bones and cause lifelong physical and neurological damage? Iâm confused
This is a partisan issue, sorry.
