I know this site is for free speech and all but please cut the antisemitism and conspiracy theory bs from the front page. It's not a good look and is going to drive people away from trying the site.

Pretty much this. They have an iq about 10 points above the norm. This is like saying because white people are typically more successful then black people it's because of our in group. No, it's because our culture values personal responsibility, education, and business more and Jewish people are like white people on steroids in that regard.

No, you didn't read the article. IQ isn't nearly enough to explain such high overrepresentation. A culture of hard work isn't a great explanation either. IQ's heritability gradually increases to somethibg like .8 as a person reaches adulthood, it's not environmental.

Most likely, it's nepotism combined with a bit of conspiracy at the highest elite levels. They seem to historically be good at it.
