    Yes, there were many vastly more adept mathematicians than Galton. For reason, however, he just had more of a "statistical worldview" than anybody in human history before him. I guess that helps explain why Galton is still so hated ...https://twitter.com/SidPolitics/status/1013956168979501056 …

    Being mathematically gifted is quite different from having a "statistical" worldview. I've known people far more gifted at math than me say, what I consider to be, stupid things like, "Women are just as good at math as men, because I knew this one lady at work..."

        A lot of it has to be that quantitative reasoning is a distinct mental process. Plato thought math literally existed in another type of reality, for example. It takes a certain type of mind to apply that reasoning to the world of imperfections.

        That might be why Galton is so loathed. He committed what feels like a sacrilege - he took math and applied it to showing that races are different, human beings have fixed, limited intelligence, etc. How dare he take something so airy and defile it with racist dirt!

        One time I told a classmate that IQ is .8 hereditary. He admitted to me he didn't like believing that because it placed limits on what he could achieve. I also noticed that students would hiss at me when I said there was a .4 correlation between brain size and IQ.

        IQ heritability and the many implications that it carries scares the shit out of the weak-minded because it shatters their fantasy that the is somehow an inherently "fair" and "just" place. To them, inequality is much less scary when it's actually solveable.

        It's amazing how much mental strength some people need to admit that human inequality is a fact of life. Granted, the world really isn't that ugly of a place once you openly recognize that fact, but a lot of people don't have the guts to admit it.

        I use the sports analogy. People like sports, and are comfortable with sports existing as a biological heirarchy. At the same time, sports are an excellent example of human biodiversity, in which the body/wits/reflexes you inherited most determines your potential ability.

        There are a handful of nerds who like physical training, such as bodybuilding and martial arts, but not organized sporting activities. They have blank slatist views of their training potential - I could be BRUCE LEE if I trained everyday! Such mindset is the common one for IQ!

        That's why individual non-competitive athletic ability is a masturbatory exercise in self delusion. Anyone who did team sports even half seriously will have experienced training their ass off, only to get beat by someone better who trained far less, at least once in their lives.
