>If you have an IQ of 100, you are at the mean of the U.S. national population – the 50th percentile. Doing well in high school is not a problem, and you can flourish in a wide variety of postsecondary technical training programs or get an AA degree. But getting a BA in a traditional liberal arts major is challenging, and a BS in a STEM major (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) is probably not in the cards.

>If you have an IQ of 115 – one SD above the mean – you are at the 84th percentile of the national population. You can successfully get a degree in most college majors, though maybe not as a STEM major at a tough school.

>If you have an IQ of 130, two SDs above the mean, you are in the 98th percentile. You meet a common definition of gifted.

>If you have an IQ of 145, three SDs above the mean, you are in the top tenth of the top percentile and can probably get a PhD in any discipline that attracts you. If you have reasonable interpersonal skills to go with your cognitive ability, you will be avidly courted by employers. If your skills tilt toward math or programming, many hedge funds and Silicon Valley companies will be indifferent to your interpersonal skills – they’ll offer you riches regardless.
Is this really what I have to believe to be racist?

I.Q. is useful but it varies even in an individual.

85 used to be the cutoff for retarded. Then they flooded the country with low iq browns. The median still has to stay at 100 so they made 70 the new retard score.

>Race and Evolution: The Causes and Consequences of Race Differences
>Stephen K. Sanderson
>Self-published, 2022

>Stephen Sanderson is the author, coauthor, or editor of sixteen books in twenty-two editions and some seventy-five articles in journals, edited collections, and handbooks. He is a retired professor of sociology and is quite unusual within his discipline for applying evolutionary principles to the study of society. His latest offering, dedicated to J. Phillippe Rushton, Richard Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen, combines a useful summary of the best in recent research and theory regarding human racial differences (seven chapters) with applications to such topics as the history of slavery, liberal stereotype theory, social stratification by color, the history of human accomplishment, the rise of Northeast Asia, and the decline of Africa (six chapters); a final chapter discusses policy options. Being an American, the author devotes special attention to Whites and Blacks, but includes information on other races wherever helpful.
>...There is not a lot of original material in Sanderson’s Race and Evolution, but I am not aware of any other single volume which summarizes so much useful information about race between two covers. It could do a great deal of good if made widely available.

Murray these days is the dignified version of the argument and tries to avoid presenting the implications in full to maintain respectability. Go upstream and look for something more comprehensive

Is this woke

this is the shit people will believe instead of being honest and saying "im not getting anywhere in life because im not putting any time into crafting my skills or personality, its a number founded on statistics thats controlling my unchangeable destiny of failure, not me!!!!!!!!!"

it'll wake up you to race realism, yeah.

Wade's book is another one which is fairly current. The valuable part is the chapter where he debunks the various establishment pillars of race denalism, which you should skip to and ignore the rest. You can get this one at most public libraries

Is this our new meme writer?

>>25371717
murray's statistics on educational attainment and intelligence don't match these days because they came from an earlier time. The average IQ of a BA holder is 102, which is dead average. That's the cost of mass education and letting everyone get a mcdegree

Oh absolutely. I am not sure I care to argue it, it's really rather involved. The only thing I can do is sort of suggest the argument by stating a list of subclaims. If you're curious I will do that but I'm not interested in derailing the thread with an internet debate. Or you could just check out this lecture by Professor Nasr (who is in fact a genius). When I first heard it many years ago it was the beginning of my willingness to question this dogmatic teaching of the modern world.

The problem with IQ is that this world doesn't operate on patterns. There is no case where it holds reasonably true that if there are two trees on the first hill, three bushes on the second hill, there will be one bush on the third hill. It's literally made up nonsense. Nothing works that way except for thigs that were specifically made to work that way by this kind of people.

The world doesn't work on the Aristotelean logic either. It's just kind of phantom tautological. Let's say

>All bears in the Arctic regions are white.
>Greenland is an arctic region.
>Therefore, all bears in Greenland are white.

But was anything really deduced? It just had to be known in the first place that bears in Greenland are white, in order to claim that all bears in the Arctic region are white. Nothing was deduced that had not been known.
