Also, if you want to find people who think you can't be racist to a white person, spend an hour or so on Twitter.

Sure, but are those people cultural icons? Do they have a significant following? Molyneux has almost a million subscribers on youtube. That is a lot for anyone. It is especially a lot for a racist old man who almost exclusively makes videos about how black people are stupid.

Intellectually and taken out of context, it's a fair question whether or not there are racial differences in IQ. Morally, however, it's a stupid question because even if you could somehow tease out all the extraneous variables like socioeconomic status, education, etc., that go into IQ, and find a tiny difference, there's absolutely no constructive use for that information.

IOW, are you going to say 'well after extensive carefully balanced analysis, we found purple people have, on average, a 3 IQ point advantage over green people. Therefore, if we draw a random person from each group, it's 52% probable that the purple one will be smarter than the green one.' What you can do with that information that's going to benefit society?

But, if you're purple and you've been exploiting and mistreating green people for centuries, and it seems likely that green people are much better, on average, at athletics than purple people then you can use that info to justify your racism, even though the difference is tiny and the overlap in distributions is huge. This might make you feel better about being an uncoordinated weakling I guess.

Moreover, if there is a measured difference in IQ that you can't isolate from extraneous variables, as there is currently, and you use that to justify your racism, that's not only intellectually bankrupt, it's also morally indefensible. You simply don't have enough information to draw a scientific conclusion, but are just arguing for what you hope is true because it will support your racism.

What if I don't want to? I've spent many hours on twitter and funnily enough those people don't come up on my feed.
