I think your concept of history is distorted. 99% of the time ppl discover stuff about biology, they're using it to help people. EG hypothyroidism in Pakistan - not attempt to insult Pakistanis, just trying to help them - and it worked. Look up hx of iodine supplementation there.

I'm not sure it's worth fighting as hard as you are to protect the current system. I'm not sure thinking that everything is just laziness and upbringing is ushering in as beautiful a golden age for the poor and disadvantaged as you think.

Whatever you think Science's track record is, I'm not sure "random completely false socially accreted prejudice" is that good a source of social progress either.

If I thought current structure - epistemological, social, criminological - was worth protecting, I'd be more willing to keep quiet about its scientific inaccuracies. But I see mass incarceration, execution of innocents, etc, coexisting with crime rates typical of 3rd World

The team who figured out the role of lead in criminality and helped reduce lead levels have done ten thousand times more to free the incarcerated and help the poor then every single person condemning Science as problematic over the last century.

If you want me to shut up about some things that could actually give us the knowledge to fix this in order to protect the current system - then for the love of God, give me something worth protecting.

It seems like you're punching a lot of ghosts here. I don't know why every argument I have with a conservative guy ends up with them fabricating some idea about what I believe and getting mad at me for believing it.

anyway, can you answer the race/iq question please
