Do you consider IQ differences a TABOO topic?
 

Is it just one of those topics you'd rather not talk about openly in 'polite company'?

Facts should be discussed openly. PC is a plague = hide or twist facts in favor for what?
PC should be eliminated completely.

Ok real talk: you look like you have an extra chromosome in your dating profile pic...

Look the world has enough issues now with out enticing China to point out what a low IQ nation America is, black, white or Hispanic compared to them.

So just sit back and be humble for what little you have.

answer you wanted??/

The funny thing is that when somebody tells Asians have higher IQ than whites everybody seems ok with it. Yet when somebody tells that whites have higher IQ than blacks, all hell lose. Despite both being same facts.

That is the point of parasitic PC culture - some facts are bad. :1orglaugh

Actually I am strongly against insulting people over their looks. So I guess I am strongly PC person after all, if you think that this is related to PC culture and adequate example ...

Interesting. HK actually has the highest average IQ score on the planet. Do you think this has something more to do with schooling/environment/state policies?

Totally, we are "Human", just don't try and explain that to the clucks.

why would it be taboo? numbers are numbers. just make sure you sources are credible.

plus you can use the "people who are present are always exception" loophole ;>

Truedat, playa

The problem is people start reaching for their guns (figuratively speaking) whenever 'culture' is mentioned. Not unlike that quote from Goering.:(

i know your source . but does the site tell you how much is highest average ??:winkwink:
how many people have been in this test ? how you can trust political scientist to put iq test ? funny the map colors doesn't match charts for all countries .

"These results are controversial and have caused much debate, they must be interpreted with extreme caution."


i took this test and scored 131 without completing the last 5 questions were extremely hard i think my pure iq is around 115 . my sister who was answering 10x faster didn't have the time but could get 140 easily .

on mensa site i had 20 correct answers out of 33.

as far as i know the school haven't help me i was terribly bad .... environment and parenting i lived with a cousin that tried to prevent me learning any life skills.

No stupid some facts are NOT facts.. your telling me Trump has a higher IQ than President Obama?

wide open statements like that are retarded... perhaps given the education gap yes on average whites may be smarter than blacks but on the SAME playing field

I would say people are people

Trump is the dumbest motherfucker in the world.. how do you explain that?

If the Chinese are so smart why did they breed like rats?
If the Chinese are so smart why so so many live as peasants suffering a subsistence lifestyle?

HOWEVER:

We do have a lot of half-wits in the US. You can see this at GFY everyday :2 cents:

So if you are having a hard time understanding US American politics -- * 21 percent of adults in the U.S. read below a 5th grade level, and 19 percent of high school graduates can't read.*

no idea if whites are 'smarter' than blacks as an average, but would have to see hard numbers from big data (which will never happen because of the nature of any such tests), rather than just say 'nope' in case it's racist.

I have to be really careful here so as not to spark 'jel is racist!' thinking, which is a shame as that overuse has stifled logical thinking/observations in some areas, but:

black people are more athletic *on average*
asian guys have the smallest dicks *on average*
nordic people are tallest *on average*
asians are smarter *on average*
women fall over for no reason more than men do *ok so this one is pretty much fact*
men are better than women at physical activity such as sports and manual labor * on average*

assuming the above to be true, does it mean all or many or even the majority of non-blacks are not athletic? or all or many or even the majority of asians have small dicks? or that or many or even the majority of non-nordic people aren't tall? That no women are good at sports?

Of course not, and if any of the above ARE true, it's idiotic to use that as a blanket view about any particular ethnicity/region/gender. It might be of some interest or have curiosity value, unfortunately anything like this is used by dumb fuck racists as a 'gotcha' when that's far from the case.

jel, I don't even waste my time thinking about that.

BTW, I may not let you down; I'm thinking about starting the Church of the Bitcoin. Theology and Bitcoinism have a lot in common including their invisible gods and their greed ;)

Be a VERY SMALL congregation ...

^^ he makes a good point. Not that i agree with him, but being polite is a social norm for a reason. You can't work with people, maintain relationships or have friends if you are stupidly honest all the time. That has nothing to do with being politically correct, its just social skills.

Plus IQ is pretty irrelevant to anything. Generally, the most important inventions, creations or discoveries done by man were done by people with average IQ's. Not to mention the mass lack of accomplishment of people who actually have them. Actual geniuses are often social outcasts who wont amount to much.

haha do not say that to a Korean
