This height analogy is very reductionist and the link is pretty weak. IQ is more complex than height and can be influenced by MANY factors in a person’s life.
There’s no doubt that we know very well how to harm I Q – raising it is another matter entirely. A lack of nutrition can prevent you from achieving your genetic height, but extra nutrition doesn’t make you tallerhttps://twitter.com/JordanSanchezCA/status/1075986273435713537 …

No one doubts that. The extent to which IQ is genetic is much less proven than compared to height. Also RACE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GENETICS. If you’re going to respond with oh but some black ppl have sickle cell. Please get a fucking textbook and learn: races are biolog. groups

They are not defined by biological differences. They are defined by social and historical standards. Why do we consider black skin a hall mark of a race but having sickle cell not... because race was defined by obvious differences in the body, not genetic diversity!

Well, you. The above tweet was part of the thread. But I guess a non answer is the best answer you can give?

It doesn’t. It has to do with malaria. Areas which historically had malaria will have higher rates of sickle cell and thalassemia. Thalassemia is a better analogy because it’s found from Africa to South East Asia and Papua New Guinea

IQ can be raised (restored to optimal genetic configuration) with good nutrition especially iodine & fish oil for instance just as it can be lowered with neurotoxins.

I had linked earlier research that correlated different factors to IQ.https://twitter.com/jordansanchezca/status/1075979161548709888?s=21 …

However, proper nutrition is essential to optimization of height. Likewise for IQ,I would think. So that would be a good starting point in any effort to raise mean IQ scores.

It wouldn’t bring you past your genetic limit but it could bring you to that limit. Increased access to food has caused average human height to increase over the decades. Over a hundred years ago 5’8” was average for a man. So in a sense it would make us taller.

Mettici in calcolo che anche i prodotti tramutati geneticamente hanno il loro perché nella manipolazione mentale delle masse! Informati!

I had a personal account while living in China, I worked at a University where most Ph.D staff were first gen sons of Chinese farmers. their 2nd gen were taller than them, as they started having middle class habits in western standards. some of them now work at US universities

The "desire" to Learn helps a lot! Unfortunately the "capacity" to Learn definitely lets many of us down.
