@fmfsaid So your riff about the IQ of black Americans and cannibalism is something you blame on alcohol?
No, but you're interpreting it wrong. In fact, cannibalism has zero to do with black Americans or even moder Africans. It was a point about human history.
Moreover, if the IQs of different groups are radically different (as tests show that they are), the cause is environmental, is it not?
@philokaliasaid No, but you're interpreting it wrong. In fact, cannibalism has zero to do with black Americans or even moder Africans. It was a point about human history.

So how would it be racist to point that out?
You were claiming a while back in the debates forum that intelligence levels were linked to race. You were pilloried for it.
I mentioned that there were many arguments along those lines, and I brought a few of them forward because I think they are interesting and very hard to account for.
I am not a racist because I do not hate anybody or believe in the mistreatment of anyone.
I think it is a tragedy that people cannot discuss these things without accusations and politically charged accusations.
But you are a W. European so you have been conditioned to immediately clutch at your pearls whenever the topic comes up. I get it. Maybe, though, just try to calm down and not exasperate yourself.

I felt the sudden unsolicited juxtaposition was a dog whistle. Whether it was some kind of 'originality' on your part empowered by a large dose of rhetorical 'Dutch courage' or whether it was a dog whistle juxtaposition that you'd picked up from some "new" far-right confirmation bias website you like to visit and you were simply regurgitating it, I cannot say.
Based off of your track record with following things that I say accurately, it probably has more to do with your biases towards anything that I write and your desire to willfully misinterpret everything that your opponents write.
