"We should never judge individuals by group averages" You say this every video, and virtually every time you talk about IQ, but it seems as if some people are too triggered by the topic in general to see or hear the words. Cognitive blindness. Our brains work in mysterious ways.

I’m not triggered at all. I’m just trying to understand the premise for such statement. I wanted to know if he thinks the IQ would be inherent to their race, or if it has something to do to culture/poverty/access to good education. (At least it’s what i believe in)
-
It sounds like you're not the target of my tweet. I would recommend watching more of his content, or asking him directly, as he has covered this topic exhaustively.
-
I am definitely going to do that! I’ve never really watched his videos, since i’ve only got to know him through twitter and never went any further on his work...
-
Haha, yeah. If you only interact with his Twitter content, which I can say (as a fan) typically comes off as hyperbolic bait... you're going to have an incomplete view of his material.
-
That makes sense, hahaha. Thanks for the recomendation!

Differences of iq among human groups is undeniable. Appears in tests again and again. Only possible discussion is if this is due to genes or to culture

none other than people like Thomas Sowell have pointed out this "fact" - and then, most often a critique of the biased systems used to "measure" specific types of intelligence follows. It's not that people are stupid - it's that uneducated people are FAR EASIER TO MANIPULATE...

'The purpose of philosophy is happiness' - what a shallow thing to say. There is no intrinsic purpose to to philosophy and even if there were then truth would most certainly be a better candidate. And no - truth does not equal happiness.

And the fastest people in the world are from West Africa. All you need to do is look at the final at the 100m run in the Olympics. This doesn't mean that Blacks are superior to Whites. Nor that they have better access to land to run on.

All human evolution ceased 40,000 years ago, obviously.

There is no "superior" or "inferior" with IQ. A high IQ person will read the works of Plato and fathom the secrets of the universe. And a low IQ person will stand on the hefty tome to help him mate with a giraffe. Both are happy and perfectly suited to their environment.

Not to mention, one is less likely to manage to successfully reproduce. Natural selection, the blessing of Saint Darwin.
