    I prefer to call those people "Negroes."

    Yes, indeed, I can imagine you doing this.

    Confidence is not fact.
    Confidence is often nothing more than propaganda.

    Indeed.

    Case in point: Donald J. Trump, the queen bee of hate speech.

    What I wrote was not a compliment, not by a longshot.

    OMG

    Uh, are you all up there? Seriously, do you know the year in which we live?

    Oh and BTW the divorce rate among white "gentiles" is well over 50%.

    So, uhm, LOL

    And define “negro” especially since the Middle East is mixed race to the nth degree.

    Now by your own definition Australian First Nation peoples are not “black”.

    Oh, my stars, why in the world should women be allowed to vote?!?! Why, they should be barefoot and naked in the kitchen, cooking and baking and bent over for their man to impregnate them once again!

    And why in the world should every one have the same "civil raaaaaaaaahts"???!!!

    Just a helpful hint: when you dust off your 1951 calendar for next year, make sure to remove the coffee stains as well.

    Just a friendly PSA: when the aliens land and start eating us homo sapiens, to them we will all taste the same, regardless of skin color.
    Well, some will be fattier than others, others more brittle, others with too much gristle, but we will make for excellent snacks for our newest overlords.

    It should have been a compliment. On a neo Nazi website I defended Jews against one of Hitler's slanders.

    "The Inequality Taboo," by Charles Murray, Commentary, September 2005

    The Harvard geneticist Richard Lewontin originated the idea of race as a social construct in 1972, arguing that the genetic differences across races were so trivial that no scientist working exclusively with genetic data would sort people into blacks, whites, or Asians. In his words, "racial classification is now seen to be of virtually no genetic or taxonomic significance."

    Lewontin's position, which quickly became a tenet of political correctness, carried with it a potential means of being falsified. If he was correct, then a statistical analysis of genetic markers would not produce clusters corresponding to common racial labels.

    In the last few years, that test has become feasible, and now we know that Lewontin was wrong. Several analyses have confirmed the genetic reality of group identities going under the label of race or ethnicity. In the most recent, published this year, all but five of the 3,636 subjects fell into the cluster of genetic markers corresponding to their self identified ethnic group. When a statistical procedure, blind to physical characteristics and working exclusively with genetic information, classifies 99.9 percent of the individuals in a large sample in the same way they classify themselves, it is hard to argue that race is imaginary.

    http://www.iapsych.com/wj3ewok/LinkedDocuments/Murray2005.pdf

    -----------

    Once we acknowledge that race is a genetic category it becomes legitimate to inquire into the genetic reasons the races differ in average intelligence, as well in rates of crime and illegitimacy.

    I enjoy investigating different points of view, and stating my own opinions. I have a high opinion of Jews and East Asians. The freedom that is most important to me is intellectual freedom.

    There are those who would argue that women should not worry their pretty little heads with political matters. I would disagree with those people, but I want them to be able to express their opinions, just as I want you to be able to express your opinions.

    An unpublished unreferenced pdf file on an obscure website - yep! That will convince just about no one. Oooh! And next time read the warnings

    It is your low opinions of ther people I have a problem with - but tell me in which category do you place Australian First Nation people (aborigines) or for that matter people from the Indian subcontinent?

    But only if the women were of the correct “race”

    Charles Murray's article "The Inequality Taboo" originally appeared on Commentary. Commentary is a leading Jewish opinion journal. Also, Charles Murray is not expressing and unsubstantiated opinion. He is discussing the results of an experiment done by others.

    I would have liked it if he had named the experiment, and left a web address to an explanation of the experiment written by those who carried out the experiment.

    Nevertheless, it is a good experiment, because it is double blind, and it can be repeated.

    I believe that there are too many efforts to suppress research into the genetic reasons for differences in intelligence and behavior.

    Australian aborigines fascinate me because they never developed civilization or even agriculture on their own. By studying them we can learn about our ancestors, and about ourselves. The San Bushmen of southern Africa interest me for the same reason.

    Our ancestors spent much more time in the Paleolithic Era than in anything since. Instincts that enhanced the ability of our ancestors to thrive during the Paleolithic Era continue to influence our behavior now.

    This is most obvious in the case of war. In the past men who were victorious in war benefited as a result. Now those who win wars are worse off after winning than they were before the wars began. Nevertheless, war continues.

    Consider the War in Ukraine. Russia may win that war, but the war will leave Russia much worse off than before invading Ukraine.

    East Indian culture fascinates me. I have had little contact with immigrants from India. That contact has been favorable.

    So? It is still an unreferenced opinion piece NOT an academic paper let alone a research paper. Plus it is almost 20 years old. There has been a lot of research in genetics since then and there is still a consensus about the fact that there is no genetic basis for “race”
