Message: Entry: Neocons and the Left: Know Your Enemies Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/neocons_and_the_left_know_your_enemies#2438 Post contents: In response to Kevin, I would answer that the highlighting of evidence of cognitive differences between genetically restricted groups may be useful in changing bad contribute to overthrowing oppressive public policy and counteracting the guilt trips that the media and public admnistrators are laying on white Americans. Such genetic findings might also be used to demonstrate that our educational institutions have lowered academic standards at least in part to deal with cognitively underequipped tuition-bearers. Although I am not especially drawn to such applications of science, I am appalled by the refusal of traditionalists to take them into account. Either fear of being politically incorrect or an exaggerated noncorporeal understanding of human nature, one that would have been foreign to Aristotle, seems to drive this cultivation of blissful ignorance.
