Thinking about HBD posts
Feb. 17th, 2023 08:20 amMy objection to the HBD posts is later than the usual arguments. People go “some groups evolved to be more intelligent on average than other groups,” and I go “okay, whatever.” Then they go “therefore, some skin colors make you smarter than other skin colors,” and I go “wait, what?” Some ethnic groups evolved lactose tolerance, and other ethnic groups with the same skin color didn’t. Maybe some ethnic groups evolved better aptitude for certain mental tasks, but you can’t just assume everyone else with the same skin color did.
