You thinking that a group has “an average IQ”, and based on the numerous comments in the multiple times this story has been posted, it isn’t hard to tell that a group of you on this site just attributes some base-level (usually low) intelligence to people (collectivist thinking) based on a “study” where you average some other people’s test scores, get a number, and slaps it on everyone that shares little more than a similar skin tone, and then engage in some circle-jerk about how you’ve discovered and speak “brave truths”, with a bunch of snide swipes at blacks tossed in, because it isn’t a “racist thing....just “science”. Give me a break!

You guys get off on bashing blacks, I get it! And this gives you some “cover” to collectively call them “stupid”, or what’s the PC way of saying it, “on-average their IQ is 85” or some variation on that theme.

"You thinking that a group has “an average IQ”..."

Well, it is common practice to quantify the average attributes of a group, that is the nature of statistics. If you have a problem with the science of statistics, I guess you had better take it up with the statisticians, and I don't know that very many of them are posters on FR.

Seems like right here you are attributing motivations collectively to a bunch of posters on FR, based on a whole lot less evidence than the people you are railing against. That's a bit hypocritical, isn't it? Also, I don't appreciate being lumped in as "you" with this group, since I haven't posted this story, or done any of the things you seem to be angry about, I simply noted that you were being nonsensical in your criticism. If you want to rail against people accusing you of nonsense, then by all means feel free to include me as "you" in that group.
