Jared Taylor put it abruptly. There's over 10,000 public schools in America. Yet, not a single one has Black kids doing better than any other race.

White supremacists aren't known for their correct analysis of statistical confounders.

What your looking at there is motivated reasoning. In reality, once you correct for confounders, the difference between races almost entirely disappears.

So you've found two important confounders. Parental education and household income, both of which are anti-correlated to being black in the US.

It's silly to think these racial differences can ever be overcome, the same way we'll never see most Women grow muscles and beat up Men in a fist fight.

That's a fucking stupid analogy. The reason Men produce more muscles is that they have testes that are producing testosterone, which affects muscle development. There's nothing asian's produce that affects brain development. They're just very scholarly by culture.

Both the size and shape of African & European Skulls are completely different.

I'm sorry to disillusion you, but the region of the skull above the eye's is most sloping in Europeans compared to Native Americans and sub-saharan Africans.

But physiognomy is a refuted superstition.

I'm sorry, but the actual data on genetic clustering shows you're wrong. https://thealternativehypothesis.org/index.php/2016/04/15/329/

It's also a scientific fact that races differ in average brain size and skull volume and shape. Blacks have smaller brain size than Europeans on average. https://files.catbox.moe/ebk1wd.png

Skull shape and brain size https://i.ibb.co/6Wgdifferences.

The link you provided shows illustrations of skulls, not actual photos of skulls themselves, unlike the example given by radicalcentrist. They also dishonestly make the Indian and African skulls huge compared to the European skull.

I didn't say that there's not differences in the means. Given a skull, a biological anthropologist with vernier calipers and a calculator could make a decent estimate of the race of the deceased. They wouldn't get it right 100% of the time though.

Probably related to the Neanderthal genes in Europeans. Neanderthals had a larger brain size still.

Needless to add, any implication about intelligence based on that is obviously misguided.

Lol, of course without any evidence to make this claim
