SDMB Bigoted Asshole Omnibus Thread

Which is stated in advance of their conclusions, meaning that you are selectively pulling parts of the turd from your cup.

I did, patiently. Are you thick? Yes, all differences were explained by environmental factors. Again, are you able to read the report yourself?

Perhaps, but before I answer that question I would need to know exactly what conclusion you are referring to. Please quote it.

Also: Who has better credentials: You or the authors of “The Bell Curve”?

Also, please answer my question from before:

Do you agree that in the linked article, the authors observe a gap between blacks and whites which is not explained by the factors they cite? If you agree, do you think their observation is an anomaly? And if not, what do you think the reason is for that gap?

Sure. Please quote the part of the report which asserts that controlling for environmental influences explained all of the observed differences in academic achievement between African Americans and whites. (Not just those measured in kindergarten).

You know? I think we’re being mean to our racist brothers here. Even they feel that hating blacks for no apparent reason is wrong. Unfortunately, much of the evidence they’re using to avoid being racist in their own minds is flawed, created by “logical” constructs in their own minds, or in cites they obviously don’t understand.

I think we should pity them… they obviously will not change their minds, if only for the reason that they would have to face the fact that they are as racist as everyone here already knows.

We should also pity them for their small penises.

Well, at least I got an apology from brazil84. I may be the only poster on this board, indeed the only person in the history of the world, who’s managed that.

No, you could answer that question right now. I’ve laid my credentials out, at your request, several times.

There was a whole nother book, refuting the Bell Curve, with multiple authors with credentials the equal to, or better that, the Bell Curve’s authors?

To the extent that the researchers’ conclusion contradicts mine on this issue, my conclusion is more valid regardless of their credentials.

Now kindly quote for me the conclusion you had in mind.

My apologies – if you did, I forgot. I take it you agree that the authors of the Bell Curve have superior credentials to yours?

Yes, (ETA: I’m not sure who had the best credentials) and in fact I have read that book. I have also read “The Mismeasure of Man”; the “Bell Curve,” and numerous other sources on these issues.

So what?

my conclusion is more valid regardless of their credentials.

My post is my cite…:rolleyes:

Yes, I **do not **have a PhD.
Your turn.

LOL. I noticed that too. Just when you thought they couldn’t dig a deeper hole they bring in more shovels.

And do you believe that your conclusions are more valid than those of the authors of the Bell Curve regardless of their credentials?

Also, what exactly is the conclusion you were referring to? This is the third and final time I will ask you.

Darn, it looks like brazil apologies are cheaper than I thought. Go ahead and accept his apology, Truman, I want to see him demand the cite of your credentials again, because his apology was contingent on “if you did”, therefore you must show that you did.

Oh oh… another person about to go on the imaginary ignore list!
This is totally not as exclusive as I was led to believe! :slight_smile:

Wow, ultimatums and everything. So what is the implied threat: that you’ll add him to your list? At some point we will all be on your ‘liars list’ of ignored posters, and you will be on ours, and then we can all get some peace.

Yes, of course. I have no interest in engaging with people who refuse to answer reasonable questions about their position.

It’s certainly possible. If you do not wish to engage with me, you are of course free to put me on ignore.

For all the occasions where they had concurrent measurements of those factors, they accounted for the observed gap.

This is of course consistent with the literature on the subject.

And I do have a PhD.

Of course, b84 is so stupid that he doesn’t understand the answer when you give it to him. And I’m not going to put him on ignore, this is top notch comedy here. I never thought that I would get this much stupidity from one person EVAR!

And for some occasions (when they did not have concurrent measurements of those factors), they didn’t?

And I take it that you are unable to quote any part of the report which asserts that controlling for environmental influences explained all of the observed differences in academic achievement between African Americans and whites. (Not just those measured in kindergarten)?

In what subject is your PhD; what university awarded it; and why should I care?

Your conclusion is more valid? Who do you think you are?
Your conclusion is NOT valid, are you a recognised genetic scientist?
Did you published any scientifically approved papers on that matter?

It doesn’t matter if someone like Stephen Hawking comes to a conclusion to you; it’s not valid if it does not fit your argument?

You are the biggest idiot ever.
