Breaking the Taboo - All scientific research shows that intelligence (IQ) is not evenly shared amongst races and ethnical groups

Since WWII this has been a precarious subject.

Lone Frank tells us how left wing ideologues tried to make scientific theories fit the ideals of equality propagated by 'international organizations' such as the United Nations. Those ideals are not based on science, but on wishful thinking.

Lone Frank explains that the resuslts of such research can be used in many different ways, positive as well as negative.

Major Danish television station shatters taboo on race and intelligence.

DR -- 2 is a Danish television network sometimes referred to as the "highbrow station" for it's focus on news and documentaries. It recently ran a segment that shattered all taboos on the discussion of race and intelligence. The anchor and expert guests state frankly that all tests and studies show that IQ is strongly linked to race and ethnicity. The show declares that "fact are facts" and denounces anyone who would vilify social scientists for speaking the truth.

Science Journalist Lone Frank points out that there is a 16 point IQ gap with first generation Moroccans. Among second generation Moroccans, who have been showered with countless benefits, the IQ gap only lowers to 12 points. Part of the reduction of the gap is only due to European admixture. Frank explains that every study puts IQ at between 60%-80% heritable and only 20%-40% a product of environment.

  • Lone Frank should do her homework before she opted for this rather peculiar viewpoint.

    -- She seems to be uninformed about the Flynn-effect.

    -- She doesn’t realize that the concept of IQ is about mental handling of SOCIAL CONSTRUCTS.

    -- She haven’t read or didn’t understand the writings of Lewontin.

    Maybe she is not more intelligent than Helmuth Nyborg and his is wanting indeed ;-)

  • Genetic engineering will make racism obsolete. I predict that it will be illegal to have a child who is not a genius, in 100 years.

  • In other news, it has been discovered that the Earth is ROUND!

    Anyway, thank you for having the courage to speak the truth. Sweden is gone. But there is still hope for Denmark.

  • Look at Nobel prizes for science/medicine, same pattern.
