What is your honest opinion on racial differences in IQ? From findings in books like the "Bell curve" by Charle's Murray and "Why Race Matters"

by Michael Levin? Do you think that there is any truth and science to it or do you think that it is pseudoscience to push eugenics and a political agenda? If you do believe that the racial differences in IQ are legitimate, what do you believe the reasons for that are? Do you believe that race matters?

I'm having a hard time even imagining how this question could be constructive

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP Well, there is a variety of opinion in this comment section, so..... yeah. Just broaching a topic that is often riddled with emotion and political correctness. I personally don't know much about the field, so I want people's opinions to expand my horizons on the matter. Not sure how getting different opinions and knowledge is not constructive.

@SW-User and supposing the conversation bends towards the validity of the theory? What then?

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP Who cares? As I mentioned to another person, while IQ is important in some respects, I do not believe that IQ measures the totality of one's intelligence.

@SW-User different opinions and knowledge are just about always constructive. The only path I see forward is destructive

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP Okay.
