Race is a made up bullshit American nonsense . No one framed 'race' in the way it is thought of today until America came along. We are all equal in God's eyes. I love my Blacks . I love my orientials and indians and hispanics and Latins. I love my fellow whites.

Modern society is not set up to breed for intelligence. If you were to start putting in place mechanisms to breed for intelligence, in some societally instituted form of eugenics, you’d be called a racist.

My knee jerk reaction from living in this world and interacting with people is that intelligence is going down the drain. Things that come to my mind are things like plummeting university and academia standards, the replication crisis, and the emerging competency crisis. But if you have data showing the opposite, that IQ is increasing across the board, then I hope so and I’ll have to take your word for it. But I’m really skeptical.

>>16808256
Leaded gasoline was banned and they have more white ancestry now. These are the only factors needed to explain any change in IQ
>>
>>16808249
If you don’t think that even modern society selects for intelligence, you thereby must believe that both blacks and whites are similarly subject to the same selective pressure (none) so should have equivalent genetic propensity for intelligence.

What you don't seem to understand is that this has been a constant throughout all of human history.
This isn't a product of 'modern society'. It is a product of 'society'.
>>
>>16808317
Still not what I am arguing btw. I'll just assume you gave up on that point (that being, that current breeding patterns are dysgenic at least in the USA).
I'll move on to your point now, which is tautologically untrue (i.e. that selection pressures have always favored the generally less intelligent)
Why don't you show us something to that effect. Prove that in the 16th or 17th century England the lower classes were out-producing the upper classes in surviving children.

Only if you use an outdated definition of species that was wrong even when it was written.

Many biologists find themselves against the concept of species, at least as currently described.

Why don't you ask the discoverer of the Flynn Effect
>Fifth, these results tell against most of the explanations advanced for the Flynn effect, namely that it is attributable to increased test sophistication and education (Tuddenham, 1948), “improvements in education reflecting more effective teaching” (Meadows, Herrick, Feiler, & the ALSPAC Study Team, 2007, p.58), the greater complexity of more recent environments providing greater cognitive stimulation (Williams, 1998), greater cognitive stimulation from television and media (Greenfield, 1998) and from computer games (Wolf, 2005), improvements in child rearing (Elley, 1969), more confident test taking attitudes (Brand, Freshwater, & Dockrell, 1989), the “individual multiplier” and the “social multiplier” (Dickens & Flynn, 2001) and “an enhanced real-world capacity to see the world through scientific spectacles” (Flynn, 2007, p.42). All these hypotheses predict that the effect should be absent or minimal among infants and should increase progressively through childhood and adolescence as these environmental inputs have cumulatively IQ boosting impacts, and most of them predict that that the Flynn effect should be greater for verbal abilities that are taught in schools than in non-verbal abilities. The early evidence falsifies these predictions and arguably leaves the nutrition theory impacting on infants as the most plausible explanation of the secular increase of IQs, although this has also been criticized (Flynn, 2008).
In other words he holds advances in nutrition/and-the-like have masked a decreasing genetic predisposition in intelligence even among just the natives of Western countries (i.e. not counting low IQ immigrants).
>>
>>16808331
If that was right, then I would be correct.
You're saying that the popular usage of species is viewed as wrong by many biologists. Which is exactly what I just said.

You're not correct, though. If you broaden the scope it would lose all scientific relevance.

>the same species since they're all capable of breeding with eachother
This is only one metric to determine whether or not two populations are considered the same species. Bison and cattle can produce fertile offspring and they're not even the same genus.
>no reason to believe blacks aren't subject to the same evolutionary forces as everyone else
No two human populations have been subjected to the same evolutionary forces. Our environments have shaped us all a little differently. The more different the environment, the more different the people. And Sub-Saharan Africa is pretty different from Ukraine or Henan.

The slowing/reversal of the Flynn effect isn't some kind of secret.
>there is no reason to believe otherwise
The modern welfare state is flagrantly dysgenic. You cannot pay the least productive members of society to have children and expect anything other than a gradual population wide reduction in not only intelligence but fitness in general.

What other implications might there be than natural selection, genius?
Do you think it's a good thing for the general population to downgrade themselves by assimilating the genes of the mentally inferior?
If there is positive selection, there must also be negative selection

>I mean in terms of development
Me too. Evolutionary development. Which is heavily influenced by environmental factors like climate. Look no further than the geographic distribution of sickle cell anemia to see that where your ancestors lived shapes your genome.
Two populations having access to similar technologies for a century is essentially nothing compared to them living for tens of thousands of years in completely different environments.

Ok so if you believe that modern society selects for lower intelligence, then whites and blacks face that same selective pressure and should be expected to hve the same genetic propensity for intelligence. Proving that society has a negative, neutral, or positive skew towards reproduction by intelligent people does not prove a difference in selective pressures for white and black populations - it just establishes your view of the selective pressure facing both.
You need to prove that European society used to select for intelligence but now does the reverse, while African society never selected for intelligence and now does the reverse (or at least selected for it to a significantly lesser extent). You cannot do that.

>>16808579
Nobody needs to prove anything. Admixture studies finished any debate years ago, European admixture is associated with higher IQ.

>>16808307
College standards have significantly dropped and there’s no correlation between having a degree and high intelligence. It’s not hard to get into college and to graduate. Black womenswear have the most education despite having generally lower IQs. College is free in many western countries and it’s encouraged as a highly profitable racket in the US. It’s not a measure of increasing IQ.
