>>12042933He is most likely getting his information from The Bell Curve which is highly problematic. The Bell Curve used army entrance exams and called them ‘IQ tests’ despite the fact that they were no such thing. Then, because they weren’t IQ tests they made up some numbers in order to say ‘well if they WERE IQ tests they would probably give numbers like this then just published that as fact.
They threw out information that didn’t suit their narrative like how South African wealthy black children had a higher IQ than the white children in South Africa because wealthy black children compared to an aggregate of all white children wether wealthy or poor gives better numbers for those black children. Because, and this cannot be stressed enough, IQ tests are more an indication of upbringing and education than of nature and breeding.
The ‘average African’ used in The Bell Curve was a group of copper miners given IQ tests in the 1950s to test how well the tests were written. These uneducated African copper miners scored about 75 points average, then after only 6 months were given another IQ test and tested at 85 because, and I can’t stress this enough, they had never been given a test before and didn’t know what to expect. So the dishonest assholes who wrote the Bell Curve threw out the 85 IQ these same exact uneducated copper miners got the second time they took a test in their lives and claimed that 75 is the average IQ for Africans.
Seriously, the Bell Curve is garbage funded by Nazis, which is true, the US nazi party funneled money through a secondary organization to fund the book. It’s trash that has no place on /sci/ but the dumb ducks from /pol/ worship it as the book of their new religion.
