In Sweden, talking about race and intelligence will get you a fine
Clear Language, Clear Mind (blog) ^ | September 24, 2022 | Emil O. W. Kirkegaard

I have somehow not heard of this case, but there’s an ongoing case in Sweden where a 80-ish year old man, Bertil Malmberg, talked about the intelligence of nations, specifically mentioning that South Sudan’s recorded mean intelligence is one of the lowest in the world (Mankind Quarterly has no less than 15 recent studies from Sudan). In his words (Google translated from Swedish):

It is relevant that the population there is among the peoples with the lowest intelligence in the entire world, which is well documented in research. According to the UN, the country has a very low HDI (Human Development Index), low level of education and widespread illiteracy. The context is that he was summarizing recent immigration issues in Sweden. As pattern recognizers know, integration of Africans is going just about as well in Sweden as everywhere everywhere else, maybe slightly weller. As has been demonstrated by a very detailed Dutch report, this has a lot to do with low intelligence among immigrants.

So far, he has been found guilty of an “incitement against ethnic group” (“hets mot folkgrupp”) which is Sweden’s hate speech law, i.e. law that protects groups left-wingers like against negative comments. The punishment is a suspended sentence (length unclear) and “40 daily fines of SEK 600”. This comes out to 24,000 SEK, about 2,200 EUR, so it is not too bad insofar as government persecution goes. He has been found guilty in the district court, and now also the appeals court (Hovrätten). After this, he was even excluded by his own party in some lame PR operation (ostensibly for not wanting to shut up for a while). However, the case is seemingly to be heard at the Swedish supreme court (Högsta domstolen).

Lefties are good at positioning themselves in key positions.
Like government, judgeships,healthcare.

In areas like science and biology we see how they interject fake science/biology with the real thing.

They also get into organizations..like he Boy Scouts..and destroy them within.

I’d be curious to see those numbers broken down further in relation to the type of family those criminals grew up in. i.e. single mother-no father.

If I was super rich I'd drop 100,000 of the Bell Curve all over Sweden."

I've never met a liberal who has read the book. Very few conservatives have read it either. It's about 1,000 pages with a lot of statistics.

Too long and dry for some, goes against what they “feel” for most.

If “In Sweden, talking about race and intelligence will get you a fine,” then race as a concept implying group characteristics has no meaning, and if it has no meaning then laws about a word with no meaning are merely good, old fashioned fascism. Tack så mycket.

With the left solidly in control of universities, the medical establishment, major corporations, internet giants, newspapers, broadcast radio and TV, publication and science, truth has become a casualty.

When archeologists 2,000 years from now examine the rubble from our failed civilization, they will see that it was the cancelation of truth that led to the demise of Western Civilization.

Sweden used to be a nation; now it’s an intellectual ghetto.

Sweden is like our California, viz. a lost cause. The enemy has conquered much of the free world without firing a shot.

You haven't been paying attention to Sweden lately. The September election ousted the left-wing parties, with the populist Sweden Democrats (which the global press refers to as "extreme-right/neofascist") being the biggest party in the right-wing coalition. Things may change soon.

Declaring intelligence and race off limits isn't doing anyone any good. It is enabling stupidity, not affirming the worth of stupid people.

Ignoring individual and societal problems that might lurk behind these two areas is simply going to increase their negative effects on the lives of Swedes.

Particularly intelligence.

Intelligence, however much it has been defined by certain exams, is quite difficult to define and, to the extent it relates to education, placing it off-limits dooms less educated people to being, well, uneducated.

As an aside, many "less intelligent people" who apply themselves at learning will be quite surprised at just how much their intellect can be improved.

“TRUTH is an ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against Slander.”

In the US it may be. Not in Europe. The prosecution only has to show that the speech promoted hate against protected groups.
