someone made a joke about how she was getting out calipers and measuring skulls, and she said something along the lines of "that's more of a thing among low-IQ people, but the fact that you went there says something about you. Do you also test for witches?" I'm paraphrasing a bit bc I didn't expect this tweet specifically to be the one to get deleted and so didn't screenshot

Yeah, scientific racism is a dumb guy thing and not something pushed by some of the most intelligent racists of all time...

loquacius posted:

people in the replies to that reply are hammering on the bad grammar but tbh that's basically nothing compared to the logic

it has both "I can't be doing this thing, because stupid people do it and I am not stupid" and "the fact that you accused me of doing something is proof that you love doing it yourself all the time"

Agreed. If I didn't know better, I'd almost think the poor sentence structure was intentional to shift the focus

Libs getting really into race science was a joke, but drat lol

it's entirely predictable. if you're an individualist essentialist, then effectively each person's distinct nature is predetermined at birth (in a scientific way, totally not as a mindless regurgitation of calvinist predestination way). if liberals then notice that many important social conditions have some strong correlation to race, they are faced with a choice; reject essentialism, and start trying to figure out how conditions shape human existence and by extension come to the conclusion that racial inequality is due to racist society. this is highly unpleasant when one is a relative beneficiary of said society. or; conclude that the categorical differences in social conditions between races is due to categorical essential differences between the races themselves, and since we're not christian chuds, it must be a "scientific" cause i.e. inherited traits that cause those groups of individuals to fail to achieve success in said society. this is assuaging when one is a relative beneficiary of said society, and there is no greater good under liberalism then self-assuagement

DEI stuff is frustrating because it's one of those things that's obviously specious but you're not allowed to point it out. (At my workplace, it mostly consisted of an innocuous fad for "land acknowledgements" that petered out after a few months.) There's not much point in getting worked up about it now, since it seems to have been a fad that's passing away.

IQ is just an aptitude test for functioning in the managerial levels of a post industrial empire and it ignores skills and knowledge that don’t fit. It also ignores that people teach their young children the things that are useful in their current situation and so people might not be learning (but can later learn!) the skills that lead to higher scores on aptitude tests.

I feel like it’s inherently easily falsifiable just by talking to people that Haitians/palestinians whatever other nation scores low on iq tests aren’t dumber just by talking to them and then talking to people raised in the education system that promotes those skills who score equivalent scores. Just pointless

Yeah exactly. If there’s different outcomes by race then either:

a) free market liberal political economy is perpetuating a racial caste system or
b) there’s something wrong with the victims

unfortunately b sounds extremely racist, which is bad. But, what if you could say b, but in the language of a? now you’re cooking. open up the PowerPoint. Do a thing about how indigenous people are inherently bad at working white collar jobs because they don’t know what time or science are, but say that that’s good actually, so you feel woke and not mega racist.

I posted about this before, but diversity is obviously good. However, when I questioned a City Councilperson lecturing on DEI at my school, about why he keeps increasing budgets for the police that murder Black people, that is apparently bad.
