For the first time we got a huge politician with integrity to call out the lies and the hypocrisy of left wing brainwash media. More integrity than any leftist ruler showed in a long time.

Of course it's not gonna be easy to go against decades of leftist brainwash, and Trump is still inexperienced with press conferences as president.

We're in a cultural war between the free world and Marxism. And right now leftists all over the world are shaken and nervous after they lost some big battles and their lies are increasingly being exposed.

The desperation is showing in the display of increasing hate and intolerance.

Take your meds you sound crazier then Trump did in his fist solo press conference.  Anybody that can't realize that that press conference was a total train wreck must have an IQ lower then room temerature.

Personally I think too much emphasis is put on tests like these. 

If that is the case, then Americans should have higher IQs than their (presumably) dumber European counterparts, as America has clearly overtaken Europe as the global leader in cultural, financial, military, etc. relevance. 

Also Western Europeans must be much smarter than Eastern Europeans in that case. 

But Americans don't have a higher IQ than their common european counterparts as shown with recent study ... 

I believe more than half of USA citizens can't even find Iraq on the map nor can they even point out major cities like Chicago.  Americans are dumb when it comes to geography.

Which is my exact point ... how is it the "dumb Americans" are the cultural dominant and have overtaken Europe in virtually every field of relevance? 

Success and IQ is not linear, from what I've found in actuality the most successful people are kind of borderline retarded at a lot of things. They excel due to an obsession (an almost simplification as it were) of focusing on being successful at one thing.

Because you're trying to say that certain races are somehow superior to others, yet showed me a report that compares people of the same race.

Have you seen the average IQ scores of each race ? You'll know what I mean when you look at the numbers ...

Well, it was a French person who created the IQ Test in the first place, so obviously the results are going to be Eurocentric.

How shocking! poverty stricken, war torn countries are at the bottom. While highly industrialized 1st world countries came out on top.

Again this doesn't prove that it's race. There are African emmigrants in those top countries that are doing just as well as their Asian/European counterparts.

That's cause most americans don't give a shit about Iraq enough to learn about it and man is geography boring ...

The best thing about Trump is every time he opens his mouth, someone cries about it.

That's because he answers questions like someone who is borderline retarded. It's scary having someone like that running your country. He makes George W look like a genius. 

Ha ha ha good one. 

I'm at work so I read the transcript and holy cow he has a hard time getting a thought across without interrupting himself.  I kind of understand he is thinking as he goes that what he says will be misconstrued or only the first sentence will be quoted while omitting the clarifying sentence afterword if he doesn't interrupt himself but damn.

Yet they worship a messiah who they claim is the key to their life is apparently is from that very region, but taking 5 minutes to learn about the geography of the region is too taxing I guess.

You're really bad at history if you think that.

It really isn't ... 

It wasn't just some coincidence that east asians and caucasians ended up at the top hierarchy of intelligence and culture doesn't explain why IQs have high heritability ...

It's not a coincidence, it's just also not simple bigotry.

 

The evolution of societies is a vastly complex topic that has been researched extensively. The theory that holds up best to scrutiny revolves largely around food production, and the domestication of animals.

 

I'm at work, so I don't have time to go too much into detail, but I can later if you'd like.

 

As far as IQ goes, the same fallacy applies to race as does gender. In places where women have few rights, and few educational opportunities, there is a noticeable difference in IQ. The samples true when you look at even the US over time. But, as the environments and opportunities changed, the gap began to shrink. To a point where the difference is all but gone.

A French person who warned that they weren't the end all be all of intellect, and that they shouldn't be used to segregate people
