There are several policies which can come from such an admission

  1. Don't let in a bunch of people from places with lower average IQs.

  2. Throwing money at schools, etc. might not be the most effective approach.

  3. Not all disparate impacts, and not the entire amount of a disparate impact may be due to systemic racism, so the white guilt faucet can get shut off.

i've pondered about this for a long time and my answer is generally no. the causation is the way i stated: low iq causes bad society which causes bad teachers etc.

>Believing that DNA can determine who a person is

DNA determines a lot of things but at some point it loses its power. A person can change their character.

The way i put it in laymen's terms is like this: DNA can build your brain but what you do with your brain is up to you and the people around you.

one person with a low iq is meaningless. many people with low iq's means that the hivemind is severely restricted in its capabilities. good ideas have a hard time propagating and bad ideas have an easier time.

here's a decent book about the subject.

Its not about you. The world is better with western civilization existing. Western civilization cannot exist with low-IQ peoples. The nation is not the state, the nation is the people. Change the people, change the nation. Period.

It is full of Ayrans lol.

You understand that if CM is right then differences in outcomes between nations most likely have a lot to do with the avg. IQ and behavioral traits of their occupants?

I'd recommend hive mind on exactly this topic.
