These ideologues have been making such bogus arguments, complete with adjectives like racist, for as long as I've been around, and no doubt will be making them 50 years from now...My study of the tens of millions of SAT scores from the 1960s refutes their claims in great detail.....At least as far as intelligence and math ability are concerned....
Well said, and yes to the summation of your article and pyrrhus comments.
Further scientific research and studies need to be done and published in the public sphere, not just in academic papers.
The much needed public exposure of "poor/dishonest/ideologically manipulated" research and studies, along with the much needed and necessary consequences for those doing so.

I agree with your points. Conducting further research is fine, but there is sufficient data currently. What is called for is a broader dissemination of current, accurate information.
I long for the day when human race deniers are rightly dismissed by actual scientists as the ideological zealots they are. Their religious adherence to the belief that race is a social construct, and that cognitive and behavioral differences between races are entirely environmental in origin, is no less ridiculous than the denial of evolution itself.

Your Substack is of great value, and people should pay you, as I do.
