What was obvious about that post is why some people might label you a racist. There’s nothing politically correct in what I said, nothing hopey-changey, just normal truth. maybe if you weren’t so insistent on saying completely idiotic things you’d be able to see that, but it seems very important to you that some race not be good at math, don’t know why, but I do know whatever the reason is it’s completely stupid and you should feel shame, but you’re not smart enough to.

It’s a near certainty I’m smarter than you. It’s not what I want, it’s what is. I never said anything, at least anything serious, about a whole race. The inconvenient truth is IQ tests are valid, reliable, and not biased. It’s also fact they are the best predictors we have of job performance in any job that requires high level cognitive functioning. It’s also fact most African-Americans don’t do very well on them. I don’t know what to do about it, echoing a college professor I had 40 years ago. I do know affirmative action is not, and never was, the answer. You don’t combat racism with state sponsored and enforced racism. All you do then is create contempt for and anger towards the “privileged” race and the government discriminationg in it’s favor. Sorry you got all butthurt about it. The truth is frequently inconvenient.
