I sometimes think that the Jewish lobby spends all of its time and energy on finding new things to be offended by. They play the victim very well.

Again today Corbyn is in trouble for defending some art work(Graffiti)which was apparently anti Jewish. He, of course, has been forced to backtrack, claiming he had not looked at it properly. He is a tool as we all know but the pathetic grovelling explanation from a Labour representative was embarrassing to watch.
We really, really, really need to stop pandering to the professionally offended for PR purposes. It has become farcical. The human race is dumber than even I thought.

Yep, I think this kind of criticism of the progressive and censorious Jewish lobbies is completely valid.

They seem obsessed with closing down any criticism and calling it anti semitic. Some might be of course but as we have seen with Count Dankula.....these lobbies end up not caring about intent or context.

They have been emboldened by the hyperbolic reactions of politicians and corporations....who live in fear of bad press. Finger pointing activists have been given power far far beyond any public remit.

You seem to be implying that it's a Jewish conspiracy that the Jews have higher IQ scores.

This is the kind of thing anti semites say.....so instead of stating you are one I'll ask you for proof of such a ridiculous claim.....that somehow Jews are manufacturing this.

Who are the non Jewish scientists disputing these facts?

Cleverly, you accuse me of being racist in an oblique fashion. Which coming from you is quite amusing. How many times do you accuse others of being simplistic by claiming racism.

I do not believe that the Jews are a master race of very clever people. It appears you do. I also don't believe black and hispanic people are intrinsically stupid, which the original IQ tests 'determined scientifically'.

Further, even if IQ tests were culturally neutral, which I don't believe, they only measure a sub-element of intellect.

I agreed with Midlands, for what it's worth.

I'm finding that you appear to be a very sensitive snowflakey person. This may have to result in us no longer communicating if you are going to continue to react to every perceived slight.

I did not call you racist and while I find your comments about Jews quite dim you are entitled to those views.

If I wanted to call you a racist....not something I do easily....I would call you a racist. I found your comments about Jews to be rather dim for the reasons I pointed out and I've certainly heard similar views from those with anti semitic views. However, I simply don't know you to call you anti semitic and I'd rather see your comments for what they appear to be.....full of holes and a bit dim.

The data on group IQs has been published and is not contested. Your comment about master races is again.....a bit dim.

Group averages on IQ take no account for individuals so are no commentary on individuals who may score highly on IQ tests.

These averages also do not explain the reasons for these group scores which is an actual area of debate and can cover cultural and social realities that affect different groups more than others.....for example the stereotype of the Jewish or south Asian culture for dedication in education as opposed to missing fathers in black communities and a disregard for excelling in education.

All stereotypes of course and contestable explanations but the focus upon the cultural means that we do not have to relate to genetics to explain these group differences. Where the truth lies is probably mixed.

However, no one is responsble for nor rightly blamed for their genetics. Also I reject notions that a person's worth should be related to an IQ score. However, I also reject notions that these results don't have relevance and impact for how different groups achieve in society.

Well, perhaps after this thread our communication should stop because I'm certainly not going to censor myself over your hyper sensitivity.

State your preference and communication between us with stop. I won't reply to you and vice versa.

Sorry for you Rudi, but he did:

they have higher average IQs than most other groups and many of them reach high positions in many professions


As for nepotism i did not say it was confined to the Jewish I would say that many companies big and small across the country suffer from this.


that merits a Yellow Card for the offence described in the link below.

Please clarify which groups have lower IQ ? Would you care to name them and further incriminate yourself ?

Please retract your statement pending consideration of reporting it to Croydon Police Station. Deadline 5pm Wednesday 28th of March.

I have kept a copy of your prejudiced musings, they may still be retracted but not deleted.

Confused

Wasn't Pefwin quoting Stirling?

Is it Stirling you are going to report?

well then it is looking like a serious example of racism on both counts.

If somebody is going to quote, for example Hitler, they had better make sure their quotation marks and referencing is copperfastened. Otherwise it would appear like the prejudicial comments are ascribed back to themselves.

The declaration of any racial group as more or less intelligent is overt racism. We can all have a little tittle tattle about culture, immigration policy, religious expression, ideology..etc. But racial stereotyping is crossing a legal line. It is hate speech.

If anybody understands the gravity of the Holocaust, 1000 years of pogroms across Europe, or the Middle East, they would get it.

What?

Instead of throwing around accusations of racism you should know what you are talking about.

If it a long established fact that different racial groups have been tested on IQ scores and produce different averages.

That's not racism, that's scientific published fact. There are studies taken on in various universities like Harvard who have completed this research. It is decades old now.

It is no commentary on any individual who belongs to any racial group. Being black, Jewish, White or whatever is not evidence of being intelligent or anything else.

There is an average British IQ as there is an average IQ for most nations......That doesn't mean everyone in Britain has that average. The same applies.

Also, the reasons why any group might have any average is a topic for debate. Also, I don't like notions of a person's worth to be attached to something as singular as an IQ rating. I've previously stated this in the thread.

Accusations of racism are not appropriate.

This was a topic that Maple expanded on because he disbelieved that the IQ score for Jews was correct. It isn't really a topic that I'm that interested in exploring.

Why is it that nearly all discussions on Jewism from whatever angle ends in anger, aggression and argument.?
Been going on for thousands of years and clearly is not about to change as is clearly exhibited on this thread.

Intelligence Tests have long been shown to have cultural bias.

we all know the stories of European settlers going to Australia or Papua New Guinea and asking the tribesmen the characteristics of a 'right angle triangle' and concluding ''there , see, all thickies here and so its alright to enslave them and nick their land''

stereotyping is wrong. To back it up with a pseudoscience is the type of thing the Nazi's did. Just because its Harvard doesnt mean anything. Its the use of the science thereafter that is wrong.
