I think anti-racialists are probably more focused on what can actually be effected with new policy. If you say "Okay, X races are inferior IQ-wise, so they're just gonna be worse off and we should keep things the way they are", that's not exactly inviting progress- whereas the less conservative view is that regardless of the source of people's low IQ or other inequalities, work should be done to minimize that inequality where reasonably possible. So we should still try to make sure black people get an equal access to education as white people, even if they are inherently lower intelligence, or whatever.

I don't think it's really possible to control for socioeconomic factors when testing IQ comparisons between races though, considering how different their lives end up being as a result of race. Hopefully in the future we'll have a better answer to these kinds of things, if only for the sake of curiosity (since as said, non-conservatives' focus is on what can be done, rather than "people are this way", full stop)
It is nothing but conceit and vanity to think that the social engineers have any power over natural reality. It is impossible to fix the underlying biological causes, distributing money from those who have earned it to those who have not does nothing to make the latter group more able, it makes them less able and less independent, and it is immoral. Forcing black kids who have neither desire nor ability through the education system is pointless. Enabling welfare queens to have dozens of kids in low-income neighborhoods does nothing but exacerbate the problem. This progressive crusade to create equality in an unequal world is nothing but a concerted denial of reality and a prodigal waste of resources. Liberty and equality are mutually exclusive.

is it really, though?

Sorting after income, education and occupation should get you really far already.
Certainly it won't be completely perfect, but in many cases it should be good enough?

You've suddenly made a lot of really sweeping claims.

What do you mean by saying that redistribution of wealth makes the ones benefiting "less able, less independant", and "is immoral"? As citizens get more well-off, they have less kids, not more. This is an easily observable trend in every single country- the richer it is, the less kids they have. Why shouldn't the same apply to people of lower classes in one of the great first-world countries? You seem to feel very strongly about your position here, but I'm not entirely sure why things must be so black-and-white when it comes to topics like welfare or wealth redistribution in general.

In many cases it should be decent, yeah. It's just that racial issues still do very much exist regardless of where you are, for the most part, and it's hard to tell how much of an effect that has on people's development.

You're definitely overestimating how big the biological differences are.

The ideal of equality doesn't mean that everyone should be equal, its about giving everyone equal chances. The liberal ideal pertains to the american dream as it was originally conceived: The equality of opportunity.
However this does not mean that everyone should simply be left to their own devices. Equality of opportunity can only be achieved when everything needed for a successful career is equally accessible to everyone:
- Transportation
- Education
- Health Care
- Housing
- etc.

That is what welfare should achieve.
Someone with iq 100 from a poor family should at least have somewhat similar opportunity compared to someone with iq 100 from a moderately wealthy family.
Comfy Slippers
Just putting it out there. This is just one of the arguments that there are racial differences when it comes to intelligence. Nobody is disallowing black people to leave ghetto and bad environments but instead they want to disrupt the social status with BLM and black nationalistic movements, selling crack for living, committing other various crimes, shooting the police so they can continue using the victim card etc. Black peoples contribution to society throughout history is minimal, and again this is not racism it's just proven facts. Nothing against these people and I know there are a lot of reasonable black people who are productive but there is still the majority that's the problem. A family friend got murdered in such "bad" environment, he did nothing, just took a wrong turn not knowing the city, why? Just because he has different skin color. Just happy they came back to Bosnia due to this. And as time goes by far-right is making more and more sense. Multiculturalism is ruining the world, leftist can't see this. If african descendants were in africa, if middle-easterners were there, and so on, there wouldn't be any issues. But no, we have to make people like Soros, Obama, Erdogan, Merkel into heroes and others like Trump into villains.

Obama isn't a hero lol

Excellent post, I agree 100%. And yes, that post of "raw data" that only separates by race means absolutely nothing.

I want to agree with this but my experience with the horrible No Child Left Behind Act makes me want to think otherwise. Instead of trying to push the less-gifted kids into becoming as intelligent as the more gifted ones and having everyone be equal, we should be pushing the gifted kids into becoming even smarter. After all, these kids are our next doctors, scientists, astronomers, ect.

Define intelligence

Problem Solving?
Learning Speed?
Creativity?
Imagination?
Curiosity Level?
Concentration Abilities?
Or maybe all of those combined?

Well here is what the dictionary says:
The ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.

This means applying known knowledge?
What about new knowledge?
How does one measure creativity and imagination abilities?

I'm sticking with the "the bigger the slider the smarter you are"
All of those minus curiosity level, though, from my experience, intelligent people tend to be very curious people themselves (probably because as it's easy for them to learn things, it snowballs into wanting to learn more, whereas with "dumber" people the opposite tends to happen)

You can still agree with the principle while criticising how it is carried out. If the No Child Left Behind Act wasn't good enough, then it should be replaced with something better, no? I'm sure a lot of people feel this way about the ACA. Obamacare DEFINITELY was not perfect, but the solution to that would be to fix it and make it better.

And sure, I'm all for helping the talented kids too. There's lots of improvement that can be made in plenty of places in society!
johnmedina999
The principle itself is also unappealing, it makes more sense to have a world where some people have an IQ of 120-130+ than a world where everyone has an IQ of 70.

Superficial stereotyping. "These people" are still a very diverse group with a multitude of reasons, just like most other groups on the political spectrum.

i have trouble sleeping but the exhaustion is hitting me right now

back to mahogany though. if i have to describe it in few words though, it's not like minorities treat white people as if they worship them. a lot of them actually despise white people due to the same reason (color/personal/historical) etc. let's just say that the feelings are anything but mutual. white people are scared of becoming a minority in their own country due to alienation and loss of hope towards their own homeland country, and the rising immigrant rates are just feeding to that fear. i guess the reason why they feel scared is because they don't want to feel replaced by people who were never born in their homeland.

W is short for warau/warai or w/e (when typing) and Japanese ppl use w as the equivalent to lol. Using 笑 (which kind of means lol) can be perceived as sarcastic sometimes, almost like a slow clap. I used it in a Japanese chat room and experienced this myself; they thought I was mocking them
