Race and IQ
-
"Racist geneticists to the contrary, there is no
evidence that either intelligence or brain size is genetically
inherited, since acquired changes are heritable, and since
only one protein peculiar to the brain is known, at present.
Other brain-specific proteins will probably be discovered,
but despite a large effort in that direction, there is no hint of
a molecular-genetic basis for "inherited intelligence."
Glucose, hormones, stimulation and other factors
significantly modify brain size and function."
'Mind and Tissue' Ray peatIQ tests are not widely used in the Soviet Union, since
the IQ is believed merely to reflect the level of social
opportunity (which can be determined in other ways), but
some very interesting studies have been done to determine
the effect of socio-economic status on intelligence. Children
in some asian-USSR towns were given IQ tests in 1929, and
averaged about 35 points below normal. Recently children
in these "retarded" areas were tested, and were found to be
approximately equal in general mental ability to children in
Moscow. In numerical and verbal ability they were slightly
behind the moscovites, but in visual memory and
interpretation of mirror images, they were superior. These
differences are attributed to the continuing differences in
their life situations.

@gugenmungus Scarcity mindset

@buckminster can't get everything right!

@FTMarinetti do you call your disposition towards your gut bacteria "scarcity mindset"?

@Dulkadir Aren't there African tribes who don't consume any seed oils, have zero EMF, and eat meat, milk, and honey? These should surely be 110+ IQ individuals from their high levels peating.

Ray's critique of genetics is a central thesis of his work. So much of his ideas are downstream of that conclusion. I'm not sure how folks who disagree can honestly read his work and not get a brain aneurism. The cognitive dissonance must gnaw from your insides.

@buckminster I just want to eat ice cream and drink coffee.

@buckminster The cognitive dissonance is RAMPANT because I claim that Bushmen and Aboriginals don't have the phenotypical mental capacity to allow for three-dimensional spacial reasoning and foresight into the future.

If you have such disparate views from Dr. Peat why pretend you like his work? He's an anti-nazi who made it his life work to expose genetics as a racist psuedo-science. Yall are literally in the polar opposite school of thought.

I believe there are distinct differences in current general intellect between races, both on a qualitative and quantitative level. However, it may be possible to raise intelligence to reduce the differential between races. Whether it's worth doing so on a wide scale is unclear yet.

Environmental temperature is inversely correlated with IQ, so makes sense that places like Africa is lower IQ. But even when all factors are controlled blacks still have lower IQ, indicating that they indeed are genetically predisposed to lower IQ. But obviously there are people who are outliers.

@buckminster if we feed amoebas milk and aspirin, they will create advanced civilization?
-
@buckminster Ray Peats views are completely compatible with racial science. Why is racial science psuedo-science again? Because you don't like the conclusions?
-
@gugenmungus for your own sake you should hope so
-
The only conclusion I can make from such grotesque comments is that you don't give a fuck about the work of dr. peat, and are only hear to destroy it and tarnish his name. Possibly paid for by big pharma as a cointelpro style operation, or just a deranged sociopath with nothing better to do than fling shit and destroy beauty.

@buckminster I was paid millions of dollars by big pharma to make racist comments on bioenergetic.forum

"John Ioannidis’ article 'Why most research findings are false' is worth reading. Things discussed on 'forums' aren’t. Ordinary corporate advertising has been supplemented by the much more economical practice of hiring product reviewers to slander competing products, joining multiple forums with their 'unhappy experiences.'"
