The IQ test and it's results are a stark reminder of the major intellectual differences between races, ethnicities and people of different geographical regions. It's been pretty sufficiently proven as a predictor of future success vs failure in long term life in a lot of varying realms, such as financial.
The average IQ of a white western person is around 104, a western Jew about 106 and Asians are around 108. The average Hispanic is around 95, with the average American black registering an average of 85. Sub-Saharan Africans come in at 70-75.
These racial discrepancies point toward there being an actual biological difference between the races. Therefore, the leftists can not abide this. Mark my words, the concept of the IQ test is going to be heavily attacked by leftists as more and more people discover these major differences and learn what they mean.
I have already been experiencing this. I have had leftists tell me that IQ tests are rigid to favor whites even though asians dominate IQ tests.
ReplyDeleteI have had this discussion and the gears are already turning and in place the left is already against IQ tests. Those who reject IQ tests will argue its due to economics and educational resources and will grasp at straws but I have already been told that the IQ tests that we currently utilize are racist and need to be done away with and this is a common sentiment in places I have lived like Jamaica and Haiti. The average IQ in Haiti is about 67 and Jamaica is 71.
Although Asians do have a slightly higher average IQ than whites, I wouldn’t necessarily say that they “dominate”. I believe the average Asian IQ is around 106 or 108 while the average white IQ is around 105. Certainly those few points can be (and were throughout history) compensated for with other abilities. I think one ability that whites display more than any other race is the ability to switch between individualism and tribalism whenever it benefits them. Asians are rigidly tribal and submit to authority, while white people always had the ability to do the same when they needed to, but also could go the way of rugged individualism when it came time.
