Jul 25, 2021 So then you've changed your position from "IQ isn't a thing" to "groups have different IQs on average because of environmental factors" purely out of political pragmatism rather than in pursuit of the truth? Understood. Then you would be wise to read Cofnas's article.
Jul 25, 2021 Obviously IQ is a thing. I mean people can see you are a very dumb person and I'm a very smart person... plain as day. Is there an accurate way to measure it and give it a quantitative that doesn't exaggerate the value of people from one background and under value those of other backgrounds? I don't think so.
Jul 26, 2021 All appeals to authority are not logical fallacies, please lol. I understand you feel like you gotta over overcompensate by pretending to be this well read expert in every field you discuss but normal people who live normal lives don’t do this. No one reads the primary sources on germ theory but we still all wash our hands & bathe ourselves on the regular. It’s a Twitter thread. They literally went back & forth. You can read it for yourself. I know I know, “it’s the jews” or whatever. All academic institutions are conspiring against Cofnas. We’ve heard this from you before. Because I, like others, trust academic consensus & don’t rely on fringe outliers to dictate my world view. The same way I trust the research that went into constructing the car I drive; I trust academics when they widely criticize another person’s research.
Jul 26, 2021 I did say "so-called". To be clear, the "authority" I'm referring to is the liberal orthodoxy on race and equality, which has nothing to do with empirical truth. The critic you quoted isn't an authority on intelligence at all, being a moral philosopher rather than an intelligence expert: http://www.alfanophilosophy.com/ So he's not a scholar in Cofnas's field, as you claimed. And even if he was, he'd still be wrong. Once again, the paper never claims that hereditarianism is "the best explanation of differences in IQ scores between racial and ethnic groups" or neglects environmental factors. You don't need to be an expert in any field or a supersleuth to fact-check these things. Any normal person who is reasonably computer-literate can do it. So why couldn't you? I assumed it was a debate about race and IQ, but LOL, I just checked and it's a four-year-old spar about another topic that's at best tangentially related to his 2019 paper on race differences. I see what happened here. You realized you goofed with the first critic and tried to cover it up with this irrelevant exchange, only to embarrass yourself once more. You're just as incoherent as res. Make up your mind: am I an antisemite or a superfan of a Jewish academic who debated antisemites and is hated by antisemites? But that's just it. There isn't an academic consensus on this issue: Feel free to check the references. But you won't, because that would involve actual fact-checking, which you don't do. Here's your problem, "Enigma". You don't care about being right, only appearing to be right. You don't have that nagging urge to determine whether or not what I, or Cofnas, or anyone else you disagree with says is actually true, instead being content with reinforcing your own preconceived beliefs via circular tautology. You have no regard for accuracy or precision, or intellectual honesty or consistency. You're lazy, sloppy, petty, smug, dumb, and impossibly stubborn and complacent. I assume these are mostly inherited traits, as most traits appear to be, but I don't doubt that certain cultural influences have had a role in maxing out those traits, by enabling you instead of pressuring you to self-improve and reach your fullest potential. This forum is a prime example of such a negative influence. But it seems to have had the opposite effect on me, because unlike you I was not treated with kid gloves. Racism helped me, whereas anti-racism has stunted you. There's a harsh reality for you.
Jul 26, 2021 You've always been beyond help... Racism doesn't help people... no one lies on their deathbed and wishes more people were racist to them... or conversely thinks "d---... all those times where I could have been more racist were wasted because I was less racist than I had potential to be..." You're not an improved individual... you are defective. You search out other defective people to validate your defectiveness... it doesn't change anything. You're not better than anyone here because you are a bigot who got picked on as a kid.
Jul 26, 2021 I could easily sell a $40k to own, $500 a month service fee Time Share to Space Monkey. First I would show him stock footage of white model couples being happy on the property... then I would tell him not to believe some CNN hit piece they did on the company's owner... just because he is a big time Republican donor (I'd have made up the CNN profile of course), then I would do some casual anti-semitic dog whistles... make him feel like he is an insider who stumbled into a good deal because he is smart...have him and his pig of a wife signed... then get my $1,000 fee and donate it too a Joe Biden PAC in his honor.
Jul 26, 2021 So following your logic, it would be perfectly justified to call DeSean Jackson, Stephen Jackson, Nick Cannon, Waka Flocka Flame, Charlamagne tha God, and many others the N-word because they're the real racists?
Jul 26, 2021 You're siding with people who have. But no hard feelings on my end. Like I said, it helped me.
Jul 26, 2021 Doesn't seem like it. I'm siding on the truth. You side with racist and bigots. Remember? Richard Spencer and 'em.
Jul 26, 2021 This is hysterical coming from a guy, who less than 12 months ago, was storm front-esque s--- posting about how the Holocaust was exaggerated, gas chambers weren’t real etc. on countless of alts. Why would I ever engage with you on a substantive matter when you have zero credibility? You do nothing but act in bad faith & leap frog from one populist conspiracy theory to the next. You have no form of higher education in the topics you talk but pretend to have some authority/ability to read/comprehend/interpret research better/more accurately than other academics who actually have the credentials. Why should anyone believe anything you have to say, let alone, believe you over people with far more experience/knowledge? The difference between you & I is that I understand my lane & limitations of my knowledge. I trust institutions to provide me with factual information about topics that are complex. I don’t make up some boogey man (Jews/big corporations/media/elites whatever dumbshit you spew) as an excuse to dismiss everything that doesn’t fit neatly in my head. You swear you’re the smartest person in the room, the same way the 12 year old who just discovered Illuminati YouTube videos thinks he’s the smartest kid in the room. You’re naive, misguided & overconfident in everything you talk about. So again: my point here wasn’t to debate you on the substance of a research paper on a subject in which neither of us have degrees in. I was merely pointing out the fact that you’re still the same far-right eugenics obsessed loser who had to s--- @Donkey Kong Country d-ck to be allowed back on here.
Jul 26, 2021 Space Monkey is from the Candace Owens' School of "Racisms doesn't exist... and if does... it's actually good.... and if it's bad... then it's really the anti-racist Liberals who are the real racist" non-cognitive paradoxal thinking.
Jul 26, 2021 It’s fun watching Space Monkey get intellectually bukakked here… but, more importantly, it keeps him from shooting up a mosque or something. We are doing a civic service.
Jul 26, 2021 "Me strong, you weak!!!" Typical midwit intimidation tactics. Except you're not even a midwit, but a follower of midwits, which makes you a subwit. You're living up perfectly to my description of you by only responding to that and giving up trying to defend your factually indefensible arguments by once again appealing to authority, the only retreat of quarter-wit trash such as yourself. And get f---ing real. You post academic papers here all the time, but now you play the “aw shucks, I ain’t no fancy highfalutin supersleuth, I'm just a normal guy trying to live a normal life!" shtick because I posted a paper that ruffles your feathers. Cry me a river, midget. Again, you don't need a special degree (or credibility on a rap board, LOL) to verify whether an individual is an expert in a given field. I'm going to re-post my points you ignored because I know you can't stand not being able to deboonk them: On the contrary, little man, me strong and you weak. By the way, @Donkey Kong Country unbanned me because I won the moral argument, even though he won't explicitly admit it. His liking your post and shunning me is just a cope.
Jul 26, 2021 Racism absolutely exists. It's also normal and to be expected. ~ Midwit-in-Chief bailing out his subwit underling. The little fella definitely needs all the help he can get, but too bad he already lost. I'm the smarter wetback, sorry bud.
Jul 26, 2021 Yeah... you think there is a 6,000 year old Jewish conspiracy to make you a loser... and you could beat it if you were only "white" or East Asian and had more natural cunning.
Jul 27, 2021 This post has the same as your posts when you spent months saying the election was going to be overturned.
