One thing that you always hear the Left claim is that race realists practice “pseudo-science”. Like the sun rises every morning, these claims arise in every leftist argument. As with all the liberal arguments, it’s just a conclusion not backed by anything. “These people are racists [conclusion]. They practice pseudo-science [conclusion]. Differences between races don’t exist [conclusion]. Therefore, we should ignore these racists [conclusion].”
But let us look at who really practices pseudo-science.
As any middle school student who was in a science lab knows, the scientific method to check the effect of something is to hold all other factors and change just the one thing you are testing.
In a chemistry lab, you wouldn’t change add nitrogen, hydrogen and water together if you wanted to see what effect nitrogen has. You would leave all else the same and just add nitrogen to see what reaction it will cause.
The same is true for drug testing. You give one group the drug and another group would be kept in the same state (including believing that they are taking the drug). Then you would test the effectiveness of the medication.
But is this the method used by liberals?
Let us look at their claims.
CLAIM: POVERTY CAUSES LOW IQ (or crime or other flaws)
The claim is made this way: Poor people have a lower IQ. Therefore, poverty must’ve caused it.
Do they check to see low IQ is just genetic? Could it be that low-IQ parents don’t have the brain power to make a lot of money, and they also pass their low IQ to their children?
It would be easy to check scientifically.
What would happen to a child who was born into wealth where his parents were born into poverty?
TEST ONE:
A young man who was raised on food stamps in the projects gets drafted by the NBA and gets paid $10 million a year for 15 years. The man and his ghetto girlfriend have a child who gets every advantage in the world. He travels with his dad all over the US and internationally (to the Olympics, for ex.). He gets to go to a private school. Everyone tries to kiss this child’s butt just to get close to the famous basketball player.
Does the kid now have a higher IQ? Do these wealthy basketball players and their kids commit less crime than middle class people? Do they save their money and make them multiply or do they waste the money and wind up right back in poverty 5 years after retiring from the NBA?
TEST TWO:
A child is born to low-IQ, poor parents, but is adopted by wealthy, high IQ parents. Did his new parents’ wealthy help him get a higher IQ score? When the kid grows up, does he get IQ scores on par with his biological parents or the ones who actually raised him?
TEST THREE:
High-IQ scientists flee from Yugoslavia, Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, Maoist China. They arrive in the US without any money. Do they and their kids wind up with a low IQ common among other poor people, or do they and their kids maintain the same high IQ?
==============================
I will not presently go into a discussion of any of those tests. Anyone who’s done any research on the topic already knows the answer. Anyone who hasn’t will just respond with the standard liberal party line of, “Idiot, you are Racist.”
But this is how a scientific test is to be conducted. You take a look at all the possible answers and try to see which would help. If we keep genetics the same, but give the kid more or less money, how will he respond? Will the money make a difference or not?
Instead, liberals jump straight to the politically correct conclusion.
They see a correlation between A and B and assume that A must’ve caused B because that’s the politically correct answer.
Any middle school student who hasn’t failed math knows that if there’s a correlation between A and B, it could be due to one of 4 factors:
1) A caused B;
2) B caused A;
3) C caused both A and B;
4) A and B are just a coincidence.
No liberal would deny this when presented in such a manner. But once we assign values to A and to B, they just choose the politically correct answer and run with it.
A=poverty.
B=low IQ
THEREFORE: A must’ve caused B, and we’ll scream at you if you think B caused A or C caused both A and B (or that it’s a coincidence).
Race realists will at least exam it in the standard scientific manner. Maybe they will be wrong in their conclusions because they gave bad reasons to back up their conclusions. But at least the basics of their methodology is the standard scientific method.
Liberals do not even pass step one. They see a correlation and jump to a conclusion. And that would get you a failing grade in any math or science class. It would, however, get you an A+ in politics and sociology!
I just woke up very angry while pondering this whole situation. On Christmas Eve while talking to one of my Aunt’s, she happened to mention how she as senior manager at a Canadian goverment research organization on agriculture that she doesn’t even have to interview white men, total preference is given to women, and minorities. Considering she has two teenage sons herself who are 17 and 19 and are just entering the workforce, it bothers her and she completely disagrees with it
Regardless of conspiracy theories, it still takes individuals to follow and practice these suicidal liberal policies. Considering that they are white themselves these liberals who hate us, my comfort in the fate of the human race is thus diminished.
Where is this headed? Where will we be 200 years from now? No matter how you approach this situation, eventually one cannot help but follow it to the very top of our power structures, only to find that this is an engineered situation. It’s coming from those in power downwards, it’s certainly not natural for the most powerful, educated racial group in the world to just wish to kill themselves off.
When it proves itself to operate without science, when it relies on dogmatic repeating and temper tantrums to get it’s way it proves to be the unequal of any logical thinking; it relies on human emotion instead of rational thought. This type of a cultural phenomenon that we face which has turned our world view on it’s head in only two generations could not have happened on it’s own. Considering it operates within the educational, media, and government institutions this is surely no accident, these groups are supposed to be the watchdogs of our freedoms instead they have turned their full fury on our own civilization.
It’s an interesting commentary on the delusions of our time that we are told by the multicult that we live in a racist society, with institutional racism and so forth and so on and etcetera. Yet at the same time, we have policies in both the government and private sector which systematically discriminate against Whites.
What is even more amazing is how many if not the majority of Whites go along with this situation. Consider how we have had several White presidents over the last two decades, including those who proclaim themselves as conservatives, yet they have done next to nothing to end affirmative action or any of the other programs which discriminate against Whites.
This is why it is hard for me to get too worked up about a black man getting elected to the presidency. What could Obama do that is any worse than what White presidents have done? (OK, OK, I know, the answer is “a lot”, but at this point I think it absurdist to think that we can find any salvation among politicians.)
The ideology of group victimhood has become the ideological justification for the creation of what amounts to an anti-White crusade. Effectively, it is the equivalent of what racism was a century ago, a justification for the exclusion of the “other”. But this time around, it means the exclusion of the high-IQ sector in society. Again, we have to ask, at what point will Whites begin to resist their own destruction?
I am just in awe of the people here. I wish I had something intelligent to add, but all I have to say is I understand and agree with whats been said so far. At what point will Whites begin to resist? Right now. I see many more white Americans than ever before at least starting to engage in conversations which are probably very uncomfortable for them. Many don’t want to sway their opinions completely yet, but its happening. We have to just keep educating ourselves, and sharing what we know.
There was an article written I believe by Jared Taylor himself where he quotes Bill Clinton as saying America has already gone through two revolutions, and is awaiting the last great one to come which he touts as something good and positive.
The first was the American War for Independance, the second was the American Civil War in which the slaves where freed and the last revolution will be when white people become a minority.
What the hell is going on here??? This is madness, do you think America won’t become the next Mexico by 2100?
When I think of this, I become quite angry, I think the third revolution ought to be an armed rebellion overthrowing the government setting the constitution back in place, and sending all these Liberalnazis to Zimbabwe.
Bill Clinton is right. There will be a third revolution in the second half of the century. But I am not sure who will win.
Bill Clinton is right. There will be a third revolution in the second half of the century.
Of course, Clinton might be stating this as a fact for anyone to draw the correct conclusions. But one suspects that too many liberals would see Whites becoming a minority as a good thing because it would mean (they believ) an end to racism and the beginning of the golden era of equality and true civil rights. Liberals seem to have this faith in minorities as the bearers of moral superiority, no matter times they get mugged by reality.
A cynic might observe that liberals are simply using “people of color” as a means to dispose of the vestiges of the old power structure and then take over the whip hand themselves, so to speak, with the all-powerful liberal state. People of color will once again be relegated to subjugation, only this time as willing clients of the liberal managerial elite. Just look at how easily blacks can be bought off on a college campus by a black studies department, and the occasional burning of a conservative heretic student or professor.
We have to just keep educating ourselves, and sharing what we know.
The irony is that the multicult is forcing the issue by pushing its attacks on Whites (affirmative action, reparations for slavery, etc.). Had they simply left well enough alone after the initial Civil Rights legislation was passed, most Whites would care less. But today, when otherwise moderate Whites find themselves shut out of colleges and jobs, they start talking about race.
Perhaps the liberals have inadvertently unleashed a whirlwind.
“At what point will Whites begin to resist? Right now. I see many more white Americans than ever before at least starting to engage in conversations which are probably very uncomfortable for them. Many don’t want to sway their opinions completely yet, but its happening. We have to just keep educating ourselves, and sharing what we know.”
I, too, believe there is a glimmer of hope. The strength of our race has always been our high intelligence (even though there are plenty of white morons). I really am starting to see some white people speaking out against the unjust state of affairs and the frightening direction the liberals are pushing us.
The liberals depend on the illusion that they are the enlightened ones in this debate, but I have watched a diligent movement of rational individuals and talented experts carefully putting forth the facts as science reveals them. A decade ago, almost any academic you asked would have said that the objectivity of race was at best questionable because of the very loud assertions of libtards saying no one had ever found a “race gene.” As the evidence for race-correlated gene clusters has grown, the liberals have screamed ever louder and more desperate criticisms. With the Case-Control Association Race/Ethnicity Study by Tang et al in 2005, the liberals have essentially no rational arguments left to try to convince academia that race is not objectively real and entirely hereditary, and sure enough, the opinion of the professionals is beginning to change. Most now believe race probably IS real, and the percentage continues to rise.
Rushton (who has done a lot to restore my faith in the capacity of a bright person to negotiate academia without becoming a brain-washed liberal) has done extraordinary work on undeniable race differences, including intelligence, and the assertion that he’s simply a racist is starting to lose its sway with other academics. Of course it’s sad that most academics are naive enough to be mislead as easily as they were, but the few rare minds of highest intelligence still have the ability to create strong arguments in favor of the evidence.
I really am a believer in intelligence. Someone (gee, I wonder if it was liberals) has tried very hard to give the public the impression that there’s no such thing as intelligence, that intelligent people are mentally unbalanced, and that intelligence makes a person less able to act ethically rather than more. It looks like some group was trying to get their own beliefs promoted in schools, movies, communities, et cetera by undermining the facts found by people of real intelligence. Clever technique, but they’re still waging war on people of superior intelligence. History shows us that this usually doesn’t work in the long run.
I honestly have high hopes that in the next ten years we’ll see a movie hit the main-stream that addresses anti-white prejudice, and the delusional liberal point of view on race and racism will start to fall apart (if whites haven’t already been rounded up into concentration camps by then).
That is exactly right, that is why they want Whites to become a minority so racism ends. How off can that be when they manufacture White racism on a daily basis?
It’s like being for gun control then having paid people to go shoot up a bunch of innocents. There is no racism from Whites nearly like what they claim, yet they egg on the Non-Whites constantly telling them they suffer because of White racism.
Heaven forbid I get a gun and go on a Non-White killing spree, my name will be forever enshrined for all of Liberal White guilt history as the epidemy of evil racism along side with Hitler, and you better believe it would be in the news for the next year.
