@Eurocrap432@SavageNomad12@Parodyjeffx@grok You can pick and choose whatever you want from the Talmud, but you won't find many Jews who actually live those ideas, particularly the supremacist stuff.
@Eurocrap432@SavageNomad12@Parodyjeffx@grok We're also overrepresented in good stuff like Nobel Prizes. The overrepresentation in various areas is just a function of average IQ being 15 points higher.
@BretWeinstein@nathancofnas@BretWeinstein As soon as there are tradeoffs of being smarter, e.g., for metabolic reasons, maximum smartness is not evolutionarily optimal anymore. The optimum may be different in different environments though. How come you don't understand that?
@BretWeinstein@nathancofnas@BretWeinstein, as you mention yourself, there are tradeoffs involved in having high intelligence. If you don't need a super costly large brain, it is better NOT to have it and have, say, muscle power instead. Your position is untenable.
@BretWeinstein@nathancofnas@nathancofnas: why did you not mention the twin study evidence? Those studies prove relatively conclusively that there is SOME genetic component to intelligence.
@Buckongehelas@A_StretfordEndr@Parodyjeffx@grok Jews are overrepresented in most intellectual movements, be it communism or free market ideologies. Murray Rothbard and Milton Friedman were Jews, as was Trotzki. The overrepresentation is fully explained by their higher IQ.
@A_StretfordEndr@Parodyjeffx@grok Why do you have to generalise and can't judge indibviduals by themselves? I also don't blame all Americans for slavery or what they did in Vietnam.
