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?

you mean if IQ differences are real? Yes

you mean if IQ is lower with some races? No

Reason: those tests are based on notions of what skills are really skills. Its about whether we really understand our world in its unreal variety. So the tests cant be valid

As long as we already think we know what we are measuring our measurements will be subsequently meaningless
