Jewish high IQ - 20 reasons why

[Pine]

1. Only partially true. The northern part of the pale was indeed former PLC territory the southern part (Novorossia, Bessarabia and Crimea), which accounted for about 1/3 of the pale, wasn't.

2 The consequential nature of education is irrelevant. What is relevant is its consistent occurrence.

1. Irrelevant. It doesn't change my point. The Jews in Novorossia, Bessarabia and Crimea were also acquired from Russia expanding territory.

2. This is going in circles with you restating the same unscientific position. Even the few experts who are put some stock in epigenetics, do not think it explains majority of the variation.

IQ measures your capability of success in the academic field, so what you said isn't any proof of it being a bullshit. Being a Nobel laureat and a top level theoretical physician depends on IQ but IQ isn't the only factor - hard work and dedication is. Just like owning a Ferrari isn't a guarantee of being the fastest on the streets, and being a 6'8" muscular and athletic guy won't automatically qualify you for being drafted by Lakers next year. Feynman chose to spend his life on physics and it paid off. Longbowman might have been able to achieve the same success with less effort and time, had he pursued career as a scientist in the field of physics (because of his higher IQ, but still IQ measures not only the kind of intelligence required to be a successful physician). Instead, he has chosen to post on a forum full of nerds who care who is whiter, Italians or Greeks. As for the garbageman in MENSA, well, that's like buying a Lambo to keep it locked in the garage.

I wouldn't say IQ is bullshit - but knowing it is pretty much useless. People's work value is in what they have done, not in what they might have done. Nobody cares if your IQ is 160 if you live in your mom's basement (well it is unlikely you do if your IQ is 160 because with that high IQ, a medical or IT degree and then a job in a top hospital or Google would require little effort, but having an IQ of 120-130 - average for an university professor or surgeon - and being a zero isn't impossible if you are lazy.)

Whenever the conversation is about whites vs blacks, IQ is real. When Jews are brought up, it suddenly is bullshit.

Nothing against the jews but that is clearly not a good comparision.
Whites and blacks have anatomical differences that set them apart on inteligence measuring. Even without IQ thing, it is not hard to tell.
This same factor doesn't have the same weight when a white and a jew is compared, even because both don't tend to be very different physically from each other, neither culturally.

IQ is not necessary concept to show black stupidity , compared to whites, you can just look at their behavior praxeologically and look at them anatomically. For instance, you can look at black brain size and supergranular structure of the pre-frontal cortex etc...

It's the right comparison, because IQ itself is called bullshit when Jews are brought up. As for the rest of what you said, it's a pure appeal to intuition based on phenotype. I could select for intelligence within a single ethnic group and that subgroup will eventually be more intelligent, despite remaining similar in phenotype and culture.

You do not know me very well. I have been calling social science bullshit for years and I usually focus on psychiatry but psychology/psychometry is in the same ballpark.

[Joso]

It's irrelevant. No group has a genius level IQ on average. Ashkenazis still have a higher IQ than anyone else.

Mongoloids have larger heads on average and they clearly have a lot of groups with high average IQ.

High, but not higher than Jews.

The idea that one person has a higher IQ than another is a myth :

Scientists debunk the IQ myth: Notion of measuring one's intelligence quotient by singular, standardized test is highly misleading.

Nope, it is impossible for Longbowman to be on the same level of Richard Feynman because they have different intellectual profiles but that is not shown by the single notion of IQ because IQ is a highly flawed mythical concept :

The results showed that when a wide range of cognitive abilities are explored, the observed variations in performance can only be explained with at least three distinct components: short-term memory, reasoning and a verbal component.

No one component, or IQ, explained everything. Furthermore, the scientists used a brain scanning technique known as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), to show that these differences in cognitive ability map onto distinct circuits in the brain.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...1219133334.htm

Nope, Longbowman's inductive/deductive reasoning ability is inferior to what Richard Feynman's was but that does not show up on IQ because IQ averages out seperate levels of intelligence e.g. it conflates the three components into one averaged out number. So Longbowman could never be equal or superior to Richard Feynman at physics.

Also, reread this part :

New algorithm uses brain scans to tell how smart you are

Forget about controversial, old-fashioned IQ tests as a measure of intelligence. A new machine-learning algorithm, which was developed by scientists at Caltech, can predict a person's intellectual ability with unprecedented accuracy.

Goodbye, IQ Tests: Brain Imaging Predicts Intelligence Levels

Research from Washington University in St. Louis has identified variations in brain scans that they believe identify portions of the brain that are responsible for intelligence . As suspected (and as explained by cartoons) brain size does play a small role; they said that brain size accounts for 6.7 percent of variance in intelligence. Recent research has placed the brain's prefrontal cortex, a region just behind the forehead, as providing for 5 percent of the variation in intelligence between people. The research from Washington University targets the left prefrontal cortex, and the strength of neural connections that it has to the rest of the brain. They think these differences account for 10 percent of differences in intelligence among people. The study is the first to connect those differences to intelligence in people.

IQ is a myth and it is an old fashion outdated device. Modern science/technology has made IQ obsolete.
