Entry: Forbidden Knowledge? Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/forbidden_knowledge#27409 Post contents: "However, some subjects don’t lead anywhere. For example, the race/IQ discussion." I can't agree with this at all. If - as I believe science has demonstrated, in the face of furious denunciation from PC forces - blacks and certain other minorities display overall IQ levels lower than those of whites and northeast Asians, is this not an extremely relevant defense to claims that disparities in their representation in certain professions and academic disciplines are caused by intentional discrimination? Should this point not be front and center in the entire affirmative action debate? It may be true that, given that the results of these studies are largely considered taboo right now, attempts to debate this point likely won't "lead anywhere" for now, at least in mainstream media circles. But to bury the matter on this basis, it seems to me, is precisely the sort of knowing suppression of truth that we can never tolerate. Sent at: 2008 08 29
