Those on the right have usually argued that moral qualities are what make economic differences. An emphasis on genetic differences implies that there is little moral significance in the distribution of wealth and income. The rich are not better people. They simply picked winning lottery numbers at conception in the grand IQ sweepstakes.
You have not said much of anything that is true. You are just expressing anger.
Now, throughout most of history there was a consensus that the Negro race was inferior. It was only after the Second World War that most whites in the United States stopped wanting to think that way.
Truth cannot be determined by a popularity contest. Some truths are unpopular.
All anyone needs to to to prove that I am wrong it to demonstrate that blacks on the average perform and behave as well as whites, or at least that there has been a significant convergence since the civil rights legislation was signed nearly two generations ago.
The reason I think it is a genetic difference is because expensive efforts by the government to help blacks, as well as the civil rights legislation have done little to enable blacks to behave and perform as well as whites on the average.
As soon as Jews were not discriminated against intellectually they excelled. As soon as blacks were not discriminated against athletically they excelled. Blacks have not been discriminated against intellectually for nearly two generations. With affirmative action programs they are discriminated in favor of. Nevertheless, by every objective criteria they still lag very far behind.
They also have a rate of violent crime that is about eight times the white rate.
Are you suggesting that the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ended all racism and discrimination against black people in the US? That the forms of discrimination against Jews and Blacks were the same? That centuries of discrimination and social upheaval could be erased so quickly?
I don’t know where to start with your argument, it fails on so many levels.
If that is all you can do, you are.
I already have here:

You have not proven anything.
Blacks tend to perform poorly on all the mental aptitude tests however they are designed. Efforts to bridge the race gap in performance always fail.
The New Deal was liberal for its time. Because New Deal programs were usually successful the Democrats dominated the United States until the election of Richard Nixon in 1968.
During the 1960s liberals made mistakes that have turned the United States into a Republican country.
Blacks often claim discrimination when they are discriminated against on the basis of what correlates with race. Black students are more likely to be expelled from school, but they are more likely to be disruptive in class. Blacks are less likely to pass mental aptitude tests, but they are less likely to have the intelligence to pass the tests.
To get back to the OP:
Shut the fuck up, bigot.
I prefer “Asiatic.” Sounds at once more menacing and kewler than “Asian.”
How odd that they should claim racial discrimination in instances where race appears to be the primary factor in that discrimination.
Naturally you are asserting that they’re really being discriminated against because of their natural racial inferiority rather than their race per se, which has the neat effect of allowing one to be a racist AND blame it on the people being discriminated against. Winning!
Which, if true, has a lot more to do with socio-economic circumstances than with genes.
As nice an example of begging the question and circular reasoning as one could find anywhere. Well done. “We know blacks don’t do well on mental aptitude tests because they’re stupid, and we know they’re stupid because they don’t do well on mental aptitude tests! Quod Erat Dumbass!”
You might be able to silence the truth for awhile, but you cannot change it. Eventually the truth will come out.
Why to poor Orientals behave so well in school? Why do they perform so well?
I am not justifying white collar crime. I am only saying that it requires more intelligence.
I am not stomping my feet at all. I am calmly presenting my arguments. The foot stomping you hear is caused by those who insult me because they cannot refute my arguments.
Conservatives deny scientific evidence and plausibility when they deny man made global warming. Nevertheless, they do not become angry when the subject comes up.
When one argues that intelligence is of primary importance in determining success in life, that it is primarily determined genetically, and that whites tend to have quite a bit more of it than blacks many liberal become screaming masses of irrationally, anger, and hatred. :eek:
This indicates that they do now really believe what they say. People do not become angry when beliefs they are confident in are questioned.
“Negroez is dumb just cuz they is!!!@ Science sez so!!1” is not what I’d call an “argument,” even by the loose standards of this forum.
I’m sure the puke-covered homeless guy on the subway ranting about how Wolf Blitzer and the Salvation Army engineered 9/11 staggers back to his cardboard hovel buoyed by his cringing audience’s failure to “refute” his “arguments” too.
Lol, pack your bags because you are about to take a ride on the excuse train. Also known as “Occam’s Butterknife,” where people invent elaborate explanations so they can avoid the simple, reasonable conclusion that the Egalitarian Hypothesis is false.
No, we do both. Debunk you and insult you. Your foot stomp comes when we don’t accept your laughably false statements (the presence/absence of “urban civilizations” or “writing” in Africa, for example).
No idea, but I would WAG Tiger Momming has something to do with it. There certainly is a lot of peer pressure and expectations (nay, demands) of academic brilliance and/or work from Korean, Chinese and Japanese parents who live their lives along traditional cultural principles.
It also happens to be an oppressive and socially stunting environment ; and the social shunning involved when the children dare break from or defy this traditional upbringing is nothing short of shameful, but that’s another matter.
What it is, however, is not genetic.
