FMF, you do believe that all realities are located in the physical, right?
Originally posted by @philokaliaFeel free to say whatever you want about race and IQ. And feel free to ignore any of my observations or questions.
Alright, FMF,
your turn.
What is the seat of intelligence? Is it the physical brain? Are physical brains different than one another, and is it possible that some people have cognitive features that are superior to others, and capacities that are greater?
Would it make sense that these are heritable and not purely environmental?
Basically, ...[text shortened]... answers for a change, FMF.
This could be a great opportunity to debut your new posting style.
Judging by the posts of mine you have ignored, I think it's pretty clear you are missing the point with regard to what my interest is exactly in the race-IQ prism through which you choose to view your fellow human beings. Present whatever theories you want and go on about it as much as you want.
If I post something in a style or with content that you don't like just ignore.
If you take a dislike to me addressing some things you say and not doing your bidding on other things, keep making suggestions as much you want about my posting style, and if that doesn't achieve what you want, just ignore me if you want.
Originally posted by @philokaliaI don't really have one and I'm not really interested in the nuts and bolts of what you are going on about, as I said earlier on this thread. Thinking about things like the number of neurons people have in their brain from this country or that country is not relevant to my life.
Basically, what is your theory of intelligence and the human mind, and I'd also like to hear more about what you think of IQ.
What I am interested in - somewhat [I wouldn't want to overstate it] - is the effect your fixation on race and IQ has on your outlook and behaviour. I note that virtually every single practical question about the application of your race-IQ stuff has brought on a flood of stuff about environment and education and innumerable mitigating factors etc.
I am more interested in how your race-IQ thing fits into your jaundiced wordlview which does not value individuality, which does not believe in rights and freedoms, which sneers at social justice using silly slogans and banter and a kind of prissy far right version of virtue-signalling, which thinks in terms of "simpletons" and "geniuses", which involves kissing bishops' hands and swooning over the PhDs who go to the same church as you, which likes to paint races, peoples, and - I note - opponents, with a broad stereotyping brush, which sets them up like cardboard cutouts in your online lonely ex-pat psychodrama and then knocks them all down flat to your satisfaction, and which all seems to take a rather pretentious glee in oozing its litre-of-vodka-in-a-day misanthropy.
As for your race-IQ prism, feel free to chunter on about it as much as you see fit. And feel free to simply ignore or misconstrue the extent to which I am interested in it.

I kind of get what you are saying, bro, but I have to say... You can't just come here to attack people and rarely contribute any of your own substance or ideas on it.
Surely, you have ideas here, but it is like you only want to interrogate people and attack them. No substance.
THat's not good for you or for others.

Originally posted by @philokaliaI want to get into it because I believe you are racist, that you hold racist views. You were called out for it in debates and have been running away from your comments ever since.
Oh no, I can't, I am just letting it flow.
[b]Dive really, really wanted me to get onto this topic at some point and, honestly, his peskering is what brought this around.
This was a very popular theme.
I am sure even Marauder would love to be here right now.[/b]
You have stated that there are studies proposing that there are genetics differences across races and ethnic groups which drive IQ levels. You have stated in debates that you cannot refute these studies.
But now on the previous page you say that you are no longer struggling to refute these studies.
So which is it Jacob?
Originally posted by @romans1009If you are not interested in this thread then you would probably be better off spending your time and effort trying to attract FMF's attention in another thread.
<Why are you fixated on IQ and race do you think?>
If he weren’t, this thread would have been put out of its misery 14 pages ago.
Originally posted by @romans1009Just now you said that you found this thread to be "misery", and yet here you still are trying to get FMF to talk to you.
I answered that one for him. Homicide is not the only crime that occurs in a country and is not a good indicator of a country’s lawlessness.
Originally posted by @romans1009Just now you said that you found this thread to be "misery", and yet here you still are.
You think *he’s* fixated on IQ and race? You’ve been yapping about it for 22 pages and show no signs of letting up. At least philo’s taking a breather.

Surely you appreciated my contribution on the crime discussion.
How could you possibly think the homicide rate in a country was the correct way to gauge how crime ridden the country was?
Originally posted by @romans1009Just now you said that you found this thread to be "misery", and yet here you still are...
Then why seek to gauge the level of crime in a country by focusing solely on homicide?
That’d be like gauging the health of someone by focusing only on his heart.
More organs than just the heart; more crimes than just homicide.
Originally posted by @romans1009Good grief you are still in the misery of thread, how odd
I never said Infonesia was a crime-ridden country. I did suggest the average IQ in Indonesia was abnormally high due to your massive 675 IQ being tossed into the mix.
Originally posted by @romans1009Are you in love with FMF?
What, that you were too lazy to type “major crimes” instead of “homicide?” Was that the explanation?
Originally posted by @romans1009Are you enjoying the "misery"?
Yes, that was the post I paraphrased.
