Racism Rears Its Ugly Head Once Again
WHY is "Slate" publishing things like this?
It's not that I dispute the general findings that "blacks" score lower on average than "whites" on IQ tests. The problem is what exactly this data means. Saletan simply seems to take it as fact that these results mean that blacks are less intelligent on average than whites, which is frankly a racist way of thinking.
My interpretation would be that there are many explanations for why these tests are not fair to blacks, for instance that these tests are greatly skewed towards a white-centrist world-view, or that there are socio-economic explanations.
IF a publication wants to publish an article like Saletan's, the LEAST they could do is present an opposing view to the idea that blacks are less intelligent on average than whites.
Anything less is simply racist.

Riiiigghht... you endorse the beliefs of holocaust deniers on this site and bitch about what you percieve as "racism".
You're an evil malignant hypocrite, Spook. You do nothing but push hate and misery on innocent people and claim yourself to be above them.
Anonymous One,don't worry your little self, this fuck place called"Merica" is going to get what it fucken asks for. The dumb shits out there only care about the HD cable,staying on for their faorite reality show,later.
Sword of Truth-- why do you feel the need to come here constantly and lie about me?
What is your fucking problem? Either someone is paying you to harass me, or you have serious mental problems.
The only reason I let you post here at all is that you do a good job of showing how weak the arguments of the official story are.
And thanks for the link, Ningen.
I still find it very disturbing that Slate is pushing this clearly racist material.
The "racist" complaining about "racism". I guess what Slate is proposing isn't your kind of racism.
Nice.
good one sword!
hey if you can forget about your jew fetish for just one moment maybe you'd like to discuss a real holocaust - that of the american indian who has been almost totally eliminated by you "american" MF's!
In what way, shape or form am I a racist???
It's a total lie, as you well know.
You are simply trying to smear me.
