But poor people are more likely to be violent, irrespective of race. There are plenty of geniuses in India, but the country, on average, has a low IQ. It also has high poverty levels.
90% of the calories taken in by a newborn are used to grow its brain. Take away adequate nutrition and you’ve got Somalia.
OK. The Flynn effect only goes so far. I get that you want it to be true that there is no genetic correlation - but even when you look at blacks in Western Counties - you get the same result. You can even separate them by socioeconomic status and only look at upper class black folks ---- same result.
I did not say that. There are outliers in every group. Just as Einstein and Newton existed - so does Thomas Sowell. The existence of outliers does not negate the general average or the mass of the distribution. Everything happens along a gaussian distribution. The median and mode are important though. That dictates where the functional mass is.
There are a LOT of white people that fall below the intelligence level necessary to survive without assistance from others. That is a problem in and of itself.
Country Rankings by IQ
Black people are not a monolith, as the Democrats would have you believe. However, IQ is correlated with poverty, likely due to nutrition.
China is cheating.
What else is new?
No. Plenty of poor people who don’t behave like violent savages

Native Americans might eat worse food than blacks but they behave much better.

You’re right. There’s not a single black person smarter than a white person. Thomas Sowell must have been Irish.
