At least you're consistent... Attack the source and avoid the topic.Ah, yes. Jordan Peterson. What a wonderful person from which wisdom is imparted.
<slams door>
There are times where attacking the source is justified. Like when the source (Peterson) is a total piece of shit. You love him because he's helping you wage your racist culture war. Republicans suck so hard.At least you're consistent... Attack the source and avoid the topic.

LMAO... He points out FACTS, and as we all know facts contradict your political narrative.There are times where attacking the source is justified.
LOL. You are an amazing poster. Have a nice night.LMAO... He points out FACTS, and as we all know facts contradict your political narrative.
The title of this thread is: IQ: What's it good for? What's it not good for? Is it legit? It poses three questions and instead of addressing any one of them, all you manage to do is make an ass of yourself with your baseless partisan personal attacks.

IQ doesn't correlate with personal virtue, but the average IQ of a population has an enormous impact on what kind of society they'll build.Jordan Peterson answers all 3 of those questions and points out the thing that bothers me the most when it comes to IQ data:
I have no doubt that the IQ data that's been collected for a century now by scientists and psychologists is legitimate. While it shows that there's no difference between men and women when it comes to IQ, it has shown that there are differences between racial and ethnic groups, and that leads to the one problem I have when it comes to IQ data. Far too often people use IQ data as a means to determine the value of a person or group, and I find that reprehensible. As Peterson pointed out, there is no correlation between IQ and virtue, yet there are some who believe people or groups with higher IQs are better than people or group that score lower, and that's the kind of bullshit I can't stand.

True that.This probably explains why there is not one single example of a successful conservative run government anywhere in the entire world.
Nothing wrong with low IQ----------but it is a good indicator of you voted for Trump....Jordan Peterson answers all 3 of those questions and points out the thing that bothers me the most when it comes to IQ data:

Didn't watch the video, but I'll pick up on your post. Looks like you're saying we shouldn't disparage groups of people based on IQ. I couldn't agree more, if that's what you mean.Jordan Peterson answers all 3 of those questions and points out the thing that bothers me the most when it comes to IQ data:

Absolutely.Didn't watch the video, but I'll pick up on your post. Looks like you're saying we shouldn't disparage groups of people based on IQ. I couldn't agree more, if that's what you mean.
Absolutely.
When people use IQ data to disparage people or groups of people, it really pisses me off. IQ should never be used to prejudge individual people, or as a metric for human value. Every individual is unique with their own individual traits, strengths and weaknesses. For example, just because there are a higher percentage of Asians in stem fields than there are Hispanics, doesn't mean every Asian person is smarter or more qualified for a job in that field than every Hispanic person is.
IQ data can be beneficial in ending some forms of hatred because it can in part explain some of the overall disparities in certain professions, such as why there are proportionately more Jewish lawyers than with any other ethnic group in the US. IQ can also be used in tandem with personality traits to disprove claims of racial or gender discrimination.

The average IQ of an African American today is higher than the average IQ of a white person in the 1940s.
