Hey, the Germans were pretty smart too, but we give up when they bombed Pearl Harbor?

“It is the smart ones that are the dangerous ones.............”

Yep. The dumb ones are the “useful idiots” - cannon fodder and human shields.

It wasn’t someone with an IQ of 83 that planned and carried out this attack.

Intelligence test scores and educational duration are positively correlated. Standard IQ test only measure a limited subset of overall intelligence. It is widely accepted that there other types of intelligence that are not measured by the IQ tests.

To demean these people as somehow low intelligence is offensive. They are evil not stupid. It is a mistake to under estimate your enemy.

Mine as well.

He ended up a corporal in the 821st AEB (army Airforce engineer battalion—-did the work the CBs got most of the credit for 🤣) and drove a bulldozer through a lot of Luzon and Leyte.

Michael Yon claims the Japanese have been given a bad reputation by the liberal west and the CCP especially. They were fiercely anti-communist. I think the truth is somewhere in between as I know they were fairly barbaric on how they fought (but then Avon so is fire bombing a city I guess).

Then we would see it in other Islamic countries. We don’t.

I said a week ago only low-IQ people would fling themselves and their families into a raging fiery pit. Well, here we are.

The actual average test score was more like 68.75 when given as a group.

There were studies that suggest that a 12-13 point higher score is received when the test is given individually.

So the researchers added 13 points to the actual test results

The tests could be structured to account for that.

Compare with average Ashkenazi IQ of 115.

It’s almost two different species.


Averages tell you NOTHING. They are the worst of all statistics.

An individual of either of those groups could be your best friend or your worst enemy.

I still remember my first day of statistics class from a wise professor”

“STATISTICS NEVER GIVE YOU AN ANSWER. AT BEST, THEY MIGHT GIVE YOU ANOTHER QUESTION.”

Intellect is not the seat of moral character.

Moral character is a different aspect of human nature.

They’ve done studies, you know. 60 percent of the time, it works every time.

Pisses me off that the White Biden supporters call US the White Supremacists but I’ve noticed it’s always Liberal White Bidenskyyy supporters who are ALWAYS taking a selfie next to every dumpster they pass by.

To give a serious answer, assuming both groups have a normal distribution, the mean tells you a lot about the populations.

And, yes, they follow normal distributions.

Various studies have shown there to be a fairly strong correlation between the two. This shows both individually and on a community by community or country by country basis.

No, check your statistics. About 1/6th of the distribution would be lower than a SD from the mean.

I was accosted in the grocery store the other day while wearing a TRUMP shirt. The guy sounded like he had a 40 IQ. Went on and on how Trump was the worst since he had been indited and fingerprinted for crimes.
I just told him he was an idiot and walked away.

See #25
I really don’t care if they are stupid or not.
Kill them until the terrorism stops.
Make an example.
This ‘obvious man’ discussion just seems pointless too me.
It’s as if some people always need more reason to justify the dirty reality of survival.
