I posted a long, detailed, and polite criticism of his scientific method over in the GD thread, which thread has thankfully finally dropped off the front page. It was, of course, completely and totally ignored.
You’re just making shit up. I can do that too.
A possible explanation for the difference between NDD and other posters in this thread is that NDD was dropped on his head when he was a baby.
So you’re going with the ‘single concussion’ theory, then?
That, or he’s black. :smack:
Either your lone ally in this thread is a lying troll, or a science denying anthropomorphic global warming denying retard.
Either way, not the best endorsement for you.
You do realize that Brazil84 is under the impression that Jews on the West Bank will soon outnumber Palestinians on the West Bank because they supposedly have much higher birthrates.
He’s lots of things, but he’s not rational nor is he reality-based.
Now if you wish to ally yourself with someone that ignorant you certainly can, but it doesn’t say much for you.
You “have read”? That’s one way of putting it - I posted links in these very threads, more than once, you disingenuous shit.
That’s not at all what they or the genetics say, where the hell did you get such a self-serving explanation from?
Hey guys, I’ve got an idea.
Let’s all start quoting good posts and points until NDD starts replying to them. No new debates, no new questions, just showing him the refutations of his retarded worldview until he either addresses them, or gives it a rest, because I, for one, and sick to death of watching him ignore essentially complete refutations. Anyone with me here?
Let’s start with this.
Plz respond, NDD?
I have many times. Race is a useful biological classification. The different races differ in average ability levels and behavior. Because these differences are the same throughout the world, and have been throughout history, it is almost certain that the differences are primarily genetic and intractable. These differences reflect different population pressures lasting for centuries in the case of the Ashkenazim, and for thousands of years in the case of the three major races.
Except that if you watched the video, you’d realize:
– No it isn’t
– No, they don’t
– No, they aren’t
– No, that’s not true either
– Wrong
– There are not 3 major races; there are closer to 600.
There is also Chen. Nationally there are millions, perhaps tens of millions who know that what we say about the biological reasons for racial differences is true.
I am composing hypotheses for what is known to be true.
There are three major races of Caucasians, Mongoloids, and Negroes. There are a few races like the Australian Aborigines, that cannot be easily included in one of these. Within the three major races are additional sub races, such as the Orientals, the Ashkenazim, and the American Indians.

The achievement gap between white and minority students has not narrowed in recent years, despite the focus of the No Child Left Behind law on improving the scores of blacks and Hispanics, according to results of a federal test considered to be the nation’s best measure of long-term trends in math and reading proficiency…
Although Black and Hispanic elementary, middle and high school students all scored much higher on the federal test than they did three decades ago, most of those gains were not made in recent years, but during the desegregation efforts of the 1970s and 1980s. That was well before the 2001 passage of the No Child law, the official description of which is “An Act to Close the Achievement Gap.”
This makes sense from a biological standpoint. Under Jim Crow schools for blacks were less well funded. When educational conditions became more equal black scores improved somewhat. Little more improvement is happening. Little more should be expected.
What race are the Hausa and Mandenka? I guess you’ve resigned yourself to the fact that many populations of “Negro” are closer, genetically, to “Caucasians” and “Mongoloids” than to other “Negroes”. Obviously you’ve accepted that “race” is not a valid genetic classification scheme.
Race is not a useful biological classification, considering that the “races” as you use them are not coherent, discrete entities, genetically speaking. You’ve shown no evidence that the different “races” differ in average ability levels and behavior- only an achievement gap. You’ve shown no evidence that these differences are the same “throughout the world”- in fact much of the evidence presented, by you as well as others, says the opposite- the achievement gap does not exist everywhere (but you dismiss any contrary information), and in at least one situation the achievement gap is reversed. You have no evidence of an achievement gap “throughout history”- much less even before the last 50 years or so. You’re historical “evidence” seems to consist of pointing to which countries have high standards of living and low crime- “evidence” that until 60 years ago or so would point to “Asian” inferiority.
And you’ve shown zero genetic evidence. You still insist that “blacks” must all share these (evidence-free) genes, despite that many “black” populations are closer to “white” and “Asian” populations than to other “black” populations.
You’ve shown a very unscientific closed mind- the only data you’re interested in is data that supports your explanation. Any conflicting data (and we’ve presented lots) is dismissed. And you still go back to poisoned wells of data like Lynn’s manufactured, baseless IQ “estimates”.
What race are the Hausa and Mandenka?
So…are Hispanics negro now? Or is this another of your cites that refutes your own point?
Of course, the NAEP studies (as well as scientists like Flynn) show that the achievement gap is shrinking, and “black” scores are improving. But you just dismiss any conflicting data.
What race are the Hausa and Mandenka?
NAEP studies show very slight reductions in the race gap. The race gap in SAT scores is increasing.
