    Having some geniuses in the ranks of a group, doesn't automatically make them equal.

    The Homo Erectus who first controlled fire was a genius too considering how they formulated such knowledge out of nothing,
    but
    does that make Homo Erectus equal?

    I scored a 124 IQ, I have not fallen for the equality robotic like mode of Human thought, I've clearly been able to outsmart most people on this thread, and I'm a rather talented artist.

    with all due respect, posting a video which lists your full name and location is NOT a very smart or safe thing to do.

    How do you know I've posted my real name?

    Besides, I'm not scared of people who might come looking for me, give me a break.

    there's no reason to assume otherwise.

    so you have now 5 times, posted this video, which lists your name and location.

    not....the smartest...thing to do.

    The situation is more nuanced. They did not face racism when they face those hardships. It was much easier for them to get out of those situations than blacks of the time. Blacks aof today are denied jobs even when they have the same qualifications, that did not really even happen in the mid 1900's for those groups. Have you read all of what I posted before, about how the years of oppression still have effects today. They didn't just disappear in one night. They existed for a long time and ended up shaping the way society exists today for lots of blacks, even their culture.

    Why haven't blacks moved further you ask?
    Racism

    Like i said in my last post, no group has faced discrimination and bigotry like blacks have. At this point I'm not even sure what to do, because I've seen your arguments with the other guy on this thread and all you do is just deflect.

    Race realists either don't know that blacks have faced unique discrimination and this causes their problems today or they know and just don't care and just want an easy justification to be racist.

    Stefanowicz is my great grandmother's surname.

    Jews, and White Catholics most certainly were denied housing, and jobs on such criteria in earlier 20th century.

    What kind of "unique" discrimination did Blacks face in New York, where there weren't Jim Crow Laws?

    No it doesn't but if we started seeing too many Homo Erecti being geniuses, we might have to check their SD again. This is what is happening to Nigerians. They are supposed to be with an average IQ of 69. These feats are as unlikely as a Chinese guy beating Usain Bolt. It's possible, but very unlikely.

    Here's another one:
    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...aks-academic-record-at-japanese-10303064.html

    He got the highest grades at a private Japanese university and solved a 30 year old maths equation. How could a country with an IQ of 2 SD above this Nigerian's country's mean, not produce a genius to solve that math problem. Japanese would have a higher frequency of geniuses to try out this question and none have solved it in 30 years. This East Asia, they are heavily invested in Maths so it can't really be that the geniuses are not interested in solving it.

    After the end of Apartheid in South Africa, the income gap between Whites, and Blacks actually increased.

    Explanation please?

    Racism in general, much longer and more than other groups. So you think that in the north everyone was just accepting of blacks in the 1950's?

    What's also important to note is that in northern states, where Jim crow never happened, blacks have higher IQs but not as close to whites though. Seems integration and less discrimination helped.

    From what I see here, white income increases and black income increases slightly. It does not really matter because colonial racism existed in south africa for so long, 20 years is not automatically going to fix all of the problems in a whiff. Slow down, they've has less time than American Blacks and even American Blacks haven't had enough time out of racism yet.

    As if Ukraine didn't experience discrimination too?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russification_of_Ukraine

    In 1720 Tsar Peter I of Russia issued a decree in which he ordered the expurgation of all Ukrainian linguistic elements in theological literature printed in Ukrainian typographical establishments.[1] Later Empress Catherine II of Russia issued a secret order to Count Aleksandr Alekseyevich Vyazemsky (the Prosecutor General of the Russian Empire from 1764 to 1792) in which she instructed him to institute a program of Russification for the provinces of Ukraine ("malorossia"), Livonia and Finland, "using light-handed methods".[2] In the opinion of Vladimir Vernadsky, by the 17th century, Muscovy already had a long-standing policy to absorb Ukraine and liquidate the foundation for local cultural life.[3] In 1862, all Ukrainian Sunday schools, numbering over 100 at the time, were abolished and proscribed. In 1863, minister of internal affairs Pyotr Valuyev issued the so-called Valuev Circular, in which he stated that the Ukrainian language never existed, doesn't exist, and cannot exist.[4] In 1876, tsar Alexander II of Russia issued the Ems Ukaz, a secret decree banning the use of the Ukrainian language in print, with the exception of reprinting of old documents.
    Soviet period[edit]
    See also: Ukrainization and Executed Renaissance
    After World War I, Ukrainian culture was revived due to the Bolshevik policy of Korenization ("indigenisation"). While it was meant to bolster the power of the Party in local cadres, the policy was at odds with the concept of a Soviet people with a shared Russian heritage. Under Stalin, "korenization" took second stage to the idea of a united Soviet Union, where competing national cultures were no longer tolerated, and the Russian language increasingly became the only official language of Soviet socialism.[5]
    The times of restructuring of farming and the introduction of industrialization brought about a wide campaign against "nationalist deviation," which in Ukraine translated into the end of "korenization" policy and an assault on the political and cultural elite. The first wave of purges between 1929 and 1934 targeted the revolutionary generation of the party that in Ukraine included many supporters of Ukrainization. Soviet authorities specifically targeted the commissar of education in Ukraine, Mykola Skrypnyk, for promoting Ukrainian language reforms that were seen as dangerous and counterrevolutionary; Skrypnyk committed suicide in 1933. The next 1936–1938 wave of political purges eliminated much of the new political generation that replaced those who perished in the first wave. The purges nearly halved the membership of the Ukrainian communist party, and purged Ukrainian political leadership was largely replaced by the cadre sent from Russia that was also largely "rotated" by Stalin's purges.[6]

    Well, why would a company think it was a good idea to setup factories in a war torn continent which is filled with illiteracy?

    Why did you pick one specific industry lol. Why didn't you pick when will Japan join OPEC. A country's focus industry usually comes from the natural resources in the country. This is why the richest Nigerians get their money from oil.

    and yet they open factories in Mexico, Guatemala, Egypt, India.

    nations filled with poverty and ignorance.

    so why not also Africa?

    there are many stable parts of Africa where they could find tens of thousands of qualified workers.

    How was it for Polish to be oppressed by Germans, and to come to the U.S.A, where Germans are the dominant ethnicity?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanisation_of_Poles_during_the_Partitions

    I don't think there would be dumb Polak jokes in the U.S.A, if a huge German American audience didn't tell them in the first place.

    So what I'm getting from this is they had some cultural erasure happen to them and that makes them equivalent to blacks. Lol you're doing what I said you would do, race realists are so dense.

    I never claimed they had Jewish admixture and I'm quite happy they don't. It only helps prove my point further.
