I think one of the explanations I once heard is that we have a lot of things locked up in our genetics and the environment we're born in (access to clean water, shelter, environmental like heat or extreme cold etc) is critical to unlocking higher intelligence.
Given that races themselves are an evolutionary trait to the environment they are in, it isn't that crazy to believe there is a difference in Intelligence based off race but the question is how much of that can be mitigated by environment as I doubt them growing up in leftist shitholes like Baltimore or totalitarian places like North Korea assist with this.
I bet the starving north Koreans are still smarter than the well fed blacks. whatever the difference that can be 'unlocked' by better diet and environments clearly isn't that much, maybe bump up iq by 5 points, otherwise the blacks adopted by whites would have similar test results to whites and asians instead of only slightly better than other blacks.
I think there's another environment we're missing here, social. The Democrats successfully created a culture where other blacks target the ones trying to better themselves and improve.
Uncle Tom and playing white, you majority of the time hear blacks calling other blacks that. Whites and especially Asians have expectations on them to do better, blacks even if they have dedicated white parents have a social expectation outside of their home to STAY worse.
Democrats put fuel the fire, but we see black people tearing each other down all around the world.
SocraticMethod1 is just engaging in wishful thinking, like a liberal, that it's somebody else's fault - Democrats / the environment.
There's no example anywhere in the world of large groups of blacks even in good conditions being compatible with a thriving Western society.
Here's a counter example: the #1 factor in whether a neighborhood gets better or worse is the number of black residents. Higher than poverty, access to jobs, resources, hospitals - anything else. In other words, a wealthy all-black neighborhood is all but guaranteed to quickly go to shit. And these are kids with all the benefits of wealth and successful, smart parents and they still fail.
Democrats didn't create the "urban" morass, they just allowed it to happen by removing corporal punishment from schools and other things to try to impose Western-style civilization.
