the freddie story is pretty sad i think, he was going through a psychotic episode at the time. he has a post on his website detailing the whole thing, basically he thought malcolm harris was out to get him and so knowingly made up the lie - as in he wasn't deluded, he made it up on purpose - that malcolm harris sexually assaulted someone. he also called another person he thought was part of a shadowy conspiracy against him and made death threats via voicemail, and she called him back and was like "if you don't go to a facility right now i will call the police, and i might still call the police even if you do" and then it was time to be institutionalized for a while. now he is medicated and doing much better.

Is Freddie's argument for intelligence having a genetic component meaningfully different from Idiocracy's eugenicist smart people have smart babies and dumb people have dumb babies?

it's sad that one of his main legacies has turned out to be his lovely article about how people are too mean to Russell Brand and Owen Jones, alongside his actually good writing

“Genes matter. They matter for us as individuals and they matter for us as a society. And they matter whether progressive people believe them to matter or not. What the political left must understand is that sticking our heads in the sand and ignoring the rapidly developing world of human genetic research does no one any favors. To leave the field of argument to the worst elements, the pseudoscientific racists and gender essentialists, is to abdicate our sacred responsibility to defend our values.” - cult of smart, page 237
