      8/ Do I bury it? Hide it? Lie about it? What about differences in GRE scores? Am I allowed to talk about the differences but only if I claim that they are environmentally caused? And if so, then how is that much different from Lysenkoism?

      Honestly if your alternative to Lysenkoism is the 'cold winters' hypothesis that is genuinely no better. In fact it's worse because at least Lysenkoism doesn't have the seemingly scientific, evolutionary gloss http://sci-hub.tw/https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2009.05.028 …pic.twitter.com/ElREECssrS

      Why should that be the alternative? (Personally, I've never found this 'Cold winters theory' particularly compelling) But Lysenkoism isn't just about a theory of evolution, it is also political suppression/oppression of alternative theories

      It occurs in animals too. https://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/?p=6472

      I haven't read enough into it to have a firm opinion about it. I'm generally less skeptical of genetic claims, but more skeptical of the evolutionary stories presented to purportedly explain it

      That should make you skeptical the the genetic claims! They basically need to have evolutionary causes to be plausible but no believable evolutionary explanations or data exist

      I'm skeptical of even claims about why skin color differs, but I'm not skeptical that genetic differences contribute to population differences in skin color. We have very strong evidence for that.

      Sometime, you'll have to explain your skepticism to me. I think it is a reasonable and interesting hypothesis.

      Well, partly it's just because I haven't read enough about the hypothesis. It's possible that if I read more I would become more or less skeptical.

      That's fair. I mean, I'm not like "this is definitely true!" But, I do think it is reasonable. And if combined with other theories, niche selection, et cetera, it makes a lot of sense.

      You know, one could actually do animal experiments to test it. Rear (eg) birds for generations in different artificial climates in large buildings and check direction of their evolution for intelligence.

          Yeah, there are various ways to test. Let’s get a team together 😃
