“The truth hurts apparently.”
That’s the basis of all the outrage over race and IQ.
It HURTS children of color, and damages them.
It causes them to surrender. Not that it changes their fate.
Nobody wants to hear they are stupid, especially from the institutions and people that are teaching.
Some truths, while they cannot be denied, are better left unsaid. It’s sometimes good enough to just let reality manifest.
Except that, when the truth is not allowed to be said, the lie becomes dominant.
The lie, in this case, is that ANY statistical disparity of achievement between races is ONLY caused by racism, and must thereby be remediated by the use of Affirmative Action.
“That’s the basis of all the outrage over race and IQ.

It’s that actual racists use it to justify their assumptions that black kids are dumb, sight unseen, and are incapable of anything and should be relegated to 3rd class status.
Of course while the same people criticize the Democrats for all of the state programs that have destroyed generations of black Americans, and uses phrases like “the bigotry of low expectations” to attack them, as opposed to their open assumptions that they aren’t even intelligent!
One side uses the state to destroy a people, and people supposedly on ours rather just assume they are all worthless subhumans.
Some people need to keep their sick politics out of science, because both sides are filled with the equivalent of child molesters when comes to some of this.
