The title of tonight tweetstorm is “How are the Blacks like the Irish?”, but it’s really about how selection against schizophrenia has been a powerful influence on differences in personality and intelligence between human groups. @Steve_Sailer ,@DavidePiffer , @hbdchick

The author of the study believes the differences shown make polygenic risk assessment a bit absurd, as "The distributions of scores for African and European subjects hardly overlapped." https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2018/03/23/287136.full.pdf …

I don’t believe it’s absurd. I think that what you’re ultimately seeing in that figure is a measurement is each population's disposition toward a dopamine mediated sensation seeking, a rough measure of extraversion and "interestingness".

Blacks are relaxed, fun, creative. All these traits contribute to their tendency to hit on anything nearby that looks even remotely like a woman. In evolutionary terms this is obviously adaptive; it requires no special explanation. What does is why everybody isn't like this
