An Important Book You Don’t Have to Read

The evidence linking differences in IQ between races is overwhelming.

The book is "The Nature of Human Intelligence" edited by Robert J. Sternberg and containing 20 contributing authors. Discusses race and IQ. Pertinent quote from the analysis in the video:

"A white person is 30 times more likely than a black person to have an IQ of 125 or higher. Since there are five times as many whites as blacks in the country, there are 150 times more really high-IQ whites than blacks in this country. And 25 times as many blacks with IQs 75 or lower."

There is also an interesting quote on the sexual differences in IQ:
"There is now essentially no question that there is more variation in IQ among men than women – more geniuses and more dummies. As for math ability, Stephen Ceci of Cornell says the male superiority begins in adolescence. For decades, the country has been encouraging women to study math and the sex gap did narrow – but, since the 1990s, it hasn’t budged. At the really high end – people who are at the one-in-ten thousand level – there are four boys for every girl. It shouldn’t be a surprise that boys are 20 to 60 percent more likely than girls to get perfect scores on the math-heavy AP exams in high school: physics, calculus, statistics. And in every country, when you ask males and females what they’d like to do for a living, males are more likely to want to work with things and females want to work with people."

The close out is also excellent:
"So: Our rulers either don’t know the facts or they know the facts and they lie. Maybe it’s some of both. I think they are so terrified of anything that could upset their egalitarian fantasies that they deliberately keep their minds closed as tightly as possible. And they try to keep yours closed, too. Richard Haier, whom we met earlier, thinks policy-makers don’t dare talk about IQ because of those race differences that just won’t go away.

I think he’s right. In an all-white society, everyone would understand that some people are smart and some aren’t, and we should help everyone make the most of what he’s got. It would never occur to anyone to turn the country inside out trying to make every white person equally smart.

But what happens when you assume that the races are equally smart, and that blacks and Hispanics are poor only because white people oppress them? And that if there aren’t as many women engineers as men it’s because men oppress them? And that if we could only eliminate systemic racism, the millions of people we have let in from low-IQ countries will become just like us?

If that’s what you think, you get the mess we’re in. Our rulers are so busy fighting the imaginary white-supremacist patriarchy – and blaming whites for everything that goes wrong – that they can’t think straight. And who pays the bill for this? We do.

We got here because we tried to build a multi-racial society – and it didn’t work. Lefties are always telling us to listen to the science. Here’s the science, lefties. Listen up."
