I suspect most systemic oppression is a myth. But it's very commonly used as an important concept in America, and I wanna make sure I'm not missing anything - can someone steelman systemic oppression for me - what it means exactly, and if that definition is supported by data?
But, controlled for things? I'm not against race and IQ correlation on principle; I do agree that in this moment if you test IQ you will find it to be correlated possibly significantly with race. I'm less convinced about how strong this is genetically though. I'm open tho.

Ah; I thought you were questioning that the size of the differences can explain the current outcome gaps we see. I don't think there is a question about that. Re: causes, lots of debate, naturally. I suspect mostly genetic due to international differences+lack of change over time

Also, adoption studies suggest a majority of within-country racial IQ gaps are hereditary, but most between-country gaps are environmental. I think non-IQ explanations (e.g., criminality, laziness) are rather poor at explaining racial outcome gaps on group level (cf. Hispanics)

In USA, Chinese-Americans almost certainly overperform their avg IQ; Hispanic-Americans almost certainly underperform. Blacks perform exactly where you'd expect (which is surprising given ENORMOUS extent of non-IQ-related social dysfunctionality among Blacks).
