    I have noticed a sharp increase in racist threads and racist posts in this forum. I am wondering if it is racist being more open as a result of the Trump campaign or if our forum is under attack from Stormfront. Stormfront posters have invaded other forums en masse until enough people in the forum stop trying to engage them and just call them on their obvious racist posts.

    Ironically, scientists tie all our genetic origin to Africa, specifically a place where, today, the people are quite literally 100 years behind us in technology and basic human advances.

    if whites ever admitted that blacks were more intelligent then that would be it, the superior human would be established given that blacks are clearly physically superior

    Clearly? True, all 8 finalist in the men's and women's 100m were of West African ancestory. How about the rest of the Olympic events.

    The movement isn't going anywhere, especially if the Demographics of the country change. You think "hispanics" of any race are going to be interested in a reparations movement? I don't think Asians are either.

    I've been posting on and off here for a few years.

    This place has always had a substantial amount of right wing racists. Any political forum that leans to the right is filled with racism. This forum is no exception.

    It's generally the white racists who've accomplished nothing in their lives who go around taking the credit for the accomplishments of other whites because they share the same skin color.

    Intelligence has nothing to do with the level of melanin in your skin.

    One has to remember that very thing is in terms of averages. In terms of the 'major' three races and raw IQ, Asians>Europeans (except for European Jews)>Africans, and it pretty much goes the other way around physically, but all of that is in terms of averages. If you look at my SAT scores, I'm certainly scored much higher than the average Asian, and I'm certainly weaker physically than the average Asian (yes, I'm a walking nerd stereotype), and I'm European in ancestry. Saying, "Oh, Black people are unintelligent" is very different from "Oh, Black people in general average around half a standard deviation lower than White people, but there are still plenty of African American geniuses", and it's the second which is more accurate.

    Define plenty. Without breaking out my statistics book I estimate the number of Black geniuses (I.Q. above 130) in America (say 41,000,000 Blacks) at around 4,000 and White geniuses at around 4,600,000.

    Why not? Left-wing whites and Jews have been interested in reparations for blacks, why wouldn't left-wing Hispanics and Asians? Gotta keep your voting blocs happy by promising free stuff. It's the Democratic Party way.

    So I suppose every black person celebrating "Black History Month" is "taking credit for the accomplishments of other blacks"? Oh wait, let me guess, that's different somehow?

    It's not about taking credit. It's acknowledging that whites, a group trashed by people like you (for political reasons) have been the group responsible for much of humanity's advancement. That's something to think about, especially when people like you (again, for political reasons) advocate for policies that are designed to make whites minorities in their own countries, with the ultimate goal being to blend them out of existence as a race, completely.

    You have a very loose definition of genius if you consider its standards so low that over 1% of the population
    is comprised of it, and that would only be accurate if you assumed a very large disparity, which I consider unlikely.

    I agree, the standard is low but I am using the 130 I.Q. that is usually tossed out. It is the number used by Mensa but I don't think they use the term genius.

    I see much more racism from the left. Most racist leftist threads are race-baiting and playing the race card where none actually exists, which is racist by itself because it diminishes actual racism that occurs. Also, much of it is anti-white racism and prejudices and stereotypes and generalities that insult all whites by characterizing or judging all whites by a relatively small minority of a fraction of extremists.

    There is a softer implied racism everyday in the media coming from the leftists news and commentators, such as CNN (and others) calling the Milwaukee suburb where Trump gave a speech "predominantly white" as if there is something wrong with being white. Obama for instance, right at this moment, is spending his time in "predominantly white" Martha's Vineyards, playing golf with comedian Larry David who is predominantly white, at a Country Club who's members are predominantly white, but you won't hear CNN ever say it that way.

    Situational, I would imagine...

    Not many female's responsible for putting a man on the moon? Is it because they couldn't, or the situation made it hard for them to contribute or are thy less intelligent?

    Who were the first civilizations to begin developing complex civilizations and the sciences? Greeks and Romans are no where near the first, but they did have impressive civilizations. They weren't "white" either, as such a thing doesn't exist, but even so, they were at the height of the world for a time. But...look at them now. What happened? Is it that they became less intelligent over time or that situations affect their ability to manifest things indicative of it?

    I generally use 140 (though that might just be my own biases, as someone who falls into that category, in order to make it more exclusive). Mensa makes quite a bit of its money off of people that like to pretend that they're in the leagues of Richard Feynman and Stephen Hawking, and putting in the barrier at 140 would radically decrease the amount of money they make. If you want a more solid number, 145 is a solid three standard deviations.

    Yep, 3 standard deviations is more rigorous. There was another organization, Intertel, that used this standard and another 4 Sigma. I can meet either standard, belonged to Mensa and Intertel.

    I would have no problem admitting that. I don't think there is any such study or research that makes that case, but their domination in professional sports, where real money is on the line so only the best are chosen, is certainly an observable anecdote.

    OK you said that would be "it." What is "it?"

    I think that's true. If reparations are going to go anywhere, it has to go somewhere in the next few years while guilty whites are still mostly in charge. Once Hispanics and Asians achieve real political power, the concerns of blacks probably won't mean much.

    It , would refer to a relegation to the status of eternal servitude, appealing much?
    As for your studies of "intelligence" there has not been ONE study that can be universally accepted as a barometer of "intelligence" which itself is entirely subjective.
    Blacks for example are physically more superior thats just an evolutionary fact given that larger noses enable higher oxygen intake which is the fuel of muscle developement

    The Greeks and Romans were (and are) White, everyone agrees.

    I am amazed at what the Greeks did. They were a bunch of pirates and yet founded Western Philosophy and literally invented science.

    As to why civilizations rise and fall, that is a long discussion. I am fond of the theory that civilizations get demoralized. Rome had a viral and Stoic philosophy but success bred a taste for luxury and a loss of that Stoic spirit.

    We can see a similar demoralization easily here in the US. Our Puritan and Protestant ethic of self restraint and hard work decaying under a tide of luxury and sensuality epitomized (but not restricted to) the bizarre concept of "gay marriage."
