Quite the opposite. The HBD side of this argument is the only one that seems to have the remotest understanding of what a confounding factor is.

If they have one that precludes controlling for SES then their understanding is pretty eclectic, to say the least. Incompatible with the one used in the sciences.

don't you understand, the sciences are BAD bc they treat SES as a confounding factor rather than something that needs to be explained away in the name of [squints] political neutrality

The dogmatic assumption that SES is a genetically independent variable IS leftism.

Even if strong genetic determinism is true this only applies if you take the range of available outcomes to be fixed or natural (which IS rightism?) The point of anything any dogmatic leftist said in here, however, was to establish an independence of SES and T, not SES and genes.

"RaceRealist" is an HBD-denialist troll. You'll probably like him.

An hbd blogger disagreeing with me? Must be a troll! The amount of bad faith says quite a lot about which side of the debate is actually committed to a dogma
