      James Flynn on universities' lack of interest in funding race and intelligence research. If they are so sure, why not fund it once and for all to prove the racists wrong definitively? https://books.google.com/books?id=Z_-ykOVpRccC&pg=PA36#v=onepage&q&f=false …pic.twitter.com/I8y4ZnKNVE

      Care to justify why exactly this is necessary research? Let's take the common sense view that there are racial differences in intelligence: who cares? What changes about how society ought to operate?

      So? We can say affirmative action is a bullshit policy without any reference to racial differences in IQ. Individuals should be judged according to their ability and with no reference to race, we already know that.

      You know full well that the justification of affirmative action relies on supposed environmental causes that it remedies or offsets. So if you want race-blind admissions, you have to disprove those. Besides, there is wide agreement about the importance. https://www.nature.com/news/2011/110202/full/470018a.html …pic.twitter.com/Ru9ZUeG37K

      I believe we can say without any evidence of racial inequality in IQ that affirmative action is unjustified.

      I got that part, but some don't think so, and their argument for it is based on current and past mistreatment. Current mistreatment is their proposed cause of the intelligence gaps, so you have to address those some way or another.

          TL;DR for effective argumentation against affirmative action, you need to establish genetic causation to rule out their pet hypothesis about current mistreatment which affirmative action is supposed to compensate for.

          The correct reason for affirmative action being bs is because we ought to be selecting individuals on the basis of competence - and in that case race is completely irrelevant

          You keep not understanding my point. I don't know why. Besides, you are wrong about the latter too. Group membership is relevant when selecting individuals because group membership sets the prior. Maybe only matters a little maybe a lot. Depends on context https://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/?p=5788

          Somebody applies for a job as an electrical engineer - explain to me what role race plays in making the decision as to whether they get the job or not

          Because you have no argument. Your article says nothing meaningful about how that would apply to a job interview.

          Race gives extra information. If some black guy says he can run a 4 -40, he's more likely to be telling the truth than an Eskimo making the same claim. Now if you get a chance to measure that time, you know for sure - but for many issues we don't have that exact measurement.

          Got it, so a black guy applies for a job with top credentials but we should assume he’s fabricating because average group differences? I still don’t how this could possibly be relevant except if you’re advocating outright racial discrimination
