You, and Harris, and Murray, and all the rest... none of you have anything to add. IQ testing is dodgy to start with, race itself is a social construct, the entire premise of your roundabout "intellectual" way of endorsing white supremacy as natural and just is garbage. So yeah, that's the conversation. We can have that one if you want, but you're just going to cry a lot during it.
The conversation that YOU want to have, about how BOLD and CONTRARIAN you are for considering the possibility that the race you belong to is smarter than blacks... that isn't a debate. That isn't going to happen, ever.
P.S. Charles Murray is not an academic lol
A hot take from Vox is the last thing anyone should take seriously. It's Hannity-left
Scientific research that predicts outcomes and is replicated through countless experiments is something that should be taken seriously. IQ testing isn't "dodgy". The statement is absolutely absurd.
Both Murray and Harris explain that the results from IQ testing and race are a crystal clear demonstration to
not be racist. To be clear, Murray's work and stance (which Harris agrees with) is that prejudging someones IQ based on race is idiotic and counterproductive. If you can't figure that out, well slow down with the assumption that you're more clever than the actual expert and get back to learning
The idea of race being a social construct is also a strange claim. Race is based on evolution. I'm not sure if you believe the theory of evolution is also "dodgy". How we categorize and determine race can be a social construct but the concept of race itself is evolution. Peoples skin color is obviously related to sunlight in the environment they have evolved in, that's not a social construct.
