Latest scientific consensus on intelligence, does it justify racism?

yes, it does, obviously. there's a difference in average intelligence between members of the same race who occupy different positions of socio-economic status, it would only be logical to assume that the races as a whole have different average intelligence as well, given that the various races also occupy different positions on the socio-economic ladder.

that doesn't change the fact that when you control for socio-economic status, there persists a difference between intelligence that cannot easily be explained away by environment. the most parsimonious explanation is genetics.

Look up irremediable.

you're absolutely right. literally, the difference in IQ is remediable. we could, for instance, euthanize and/or sterilize any people who happen to deviate too strongly below the IQ average (let's say, an IQ of 80 or below). this would happen to more black people than it would white people, and it would happen to fewer east asians than it would whites, and would therefore cause the averages to converge. there are, after all, examples of blacks, whites, asians, jews, native americans, etc. who have an IQs significantly above 100, and if these members of their respective races were allowed to promulgate then the genetic gap in IQ would literally disappear.

however, are there any practical solutions? probably not. economic and sociological forces are widening the gap, if anything, with the poorest (and by extension, the dumbest) of global civilization reproducing significantly faster than the smartest.

Read your own shit. Economic status makes a difference.

23. "Racial-ethnic differences are somewhat smaller but still substantial for individuals from the same socio-economic backgrounds"

It appears you don't even understand what you just quoted. That sentence says that racial background is much more important for determining IQ than income.

18. "Genetically caused differences are not necessarily irremediable"

Look up irremediable.

If you actually read the whole thing, it says without a doubt, ethnic background is the #1 determining factor for IQ, not income or anything else. They just slipped in non-scientific, liberal slogans like the one above in order to not make themselves appear as "evil" eugenicists.

What is your actual goal? To convince people that your point of view is correct and hope they resort to some form of action? Or is it more about finding peers?

I feel it's a shame cultural Marxism remains strong when economic Marxism has been so thoroughly defeated. Someone who's not familiar with the origin of these ideas might think they are completely unrelated, or maybe cultural Marxism is normal, and this is the way life is supposed to be, but no, both of these are very new social engineering programs directly tied to each other. Both come from the same source, same time period.
