Dmitri-9 posted:I know Pinker is a genetic essentialist but I have never heard him advance racial IQ theories. Saying that genetics is an under-appreciated influence on behavior is different than saying that there are genetic differences in racial intelligence. He doesn't outright say it, no. He just says that intelligence is an inherited, genetic, measurable attribute. He says that IQ tests largely measure genetic differences in intelligence. He says that there are definite genetic and biological differences between different races. And he says that the racial IQ difference can't be explained solely by environmental factors. Then he says "makes you think, huh?" and leaves it to Breitbart and the "highly intelligent people who gravitate to the alt-right" (as he puts it) to fill in the obvious blanks while he goes on an unprompted rant about politically correct anti-intellectual left-wing academia smothering real scientific debates and covering up verifiable truths in order to brainwash students into buying cultural dogma. Sure, he claims that he doesn't think black-white differences (such as IQ gaps and incarceration rates) are genetic. But he complains when people attempt to attribute them solely to behavioral and environmental factors, and he also claims that the alt-right came about as a result of highly intelligent individuals breaking free of politically-correct left-wing dogma and finding out about the racial differences in crime rates that the anti-intellectual leftists don't want anyone to know about. And although he's unwilling to say that some races are inferior for genetic reasons, he's certainly comfortable with the idea that some races are superior for genetic reasons - and he says that if that becomes widely accepted, then people might be more open to the suggestion that some races are inferior for genetic reasons. As Kite said, he's a less outspoken Jordan Peterson. He lays out a racist premise, and implies that an academic leftist conspiracy is covering up the truth of that premise, then avoids outright stating the racist conclusion, and if anyone points it out or calls him on it then he accuses the left of trying to use political correctness to shut him down with hysterical accusations. He praises the alt-right (who love him and regularly cite his work) and claims that they're only reacting naturally to the left-wing conspiracy, then he claims he doesn't really agree with them on anything and that the left is dishonestly trying to link him to Nazis to make him look bad. And then he writes self-help books that put him in the role of the comforting father figure trying to convince people to stop hating themselves.

The fact that you don't have any factual objections but still dismiss him as an intellectual because of his (badly) perceived political leanings kinda proves his point doesn't it? You are right about saying it is wrong to think there are measurable genetic differences in intelligence between populations without solid evidence. He doesn't indicate that he does. He is right in that it is also wrong to do the opposite, at least as a scientist. I liked Hans Rosling. I think I'm gonna read Pinker's books.

Pinker's research on decreasing violence and linking it to the rise of the rule of law and hierarchical states also has massive issues, because if I recall, though correct me if I am wrong, his statistics used exclude violence carried out by the state outside war, as these are "legal" and part of the "rule of law" and therefore different than revenge killings. His examples of past violent societies are also all drawn from Europe, with exceptions from China, Japan and poorly understood by Pinker bits about the Aztecs. Also the usual appeal to Amazonian rates of violence as indicative of "lower' societies being more violent (Amazonia once had massive chiefdoms and likely laws and poo poo, but is essentially post-apocalyptic to a degree that no where else was after the Spanish/Portuguese). He makes a stupid jump to "Western" values of the individual and "rule of law" being the primary driver of decreasing violence, as well as capitalism which is just ridiculous. No one serious in anthropology entertains his nonsense. It's worthless if you have even an undergraduate education in any of the five branches. Edit: There are also gigantic methodological issues involved in finding rates of violent death archaeologically that I don't believe Pinker explores in "Better Angels" and he ignores complex, large-scale societies that don't fit his thesis (like the Hohokam of Southern Arizona).

also, 95% of evopsych is horseshit in the first place the field is overrun with cranks desperate to prove that their favorite cultural behaviors are Pinker's just very aware of that perception and is very careful to avoid putting it into a soundbite that the media can take and run with
