This is part two of a series of articles ordered by 150 IQ Ganzir for $3.50 (he was smart enough to order early before the free market realizes my true value :-)).
In the comment section it was claimed that Jews have a math, verbal, memory and spatial IQ of 113, 109, 96, and 93 respectively. The source for this claim was likely an article I wrote back in 2016. My source was journalist Daniel Seligman who had expressed the test score differences between Jewish & Gentile Caucasians in SD units, which I converted to IQ by assuming an SD of 15 and assuming the Gentile mean was 100.
However Seligman neglected to mention that the groups were equated for socio-economic status (SES). Richard Lynn writes:
These differences were calculated on Jews and Gentiles matched for socioeconomic status. Because Jews have a higher average socioeconomic status than Gentiles, the reported differences are not an accurate measure of the true differences, and there is no way of estimating the Jewish IQ from this study.
Although sociologists commonly control for SES as a way of equating environment, they don’t understand that controlling for SES may also indirectly control for genetic intelligence and thus minimize group differences. This mistake occurs so frequently Jensen coined the term “sociologist’s fallacy” to describe it.

For an amount we can discuss later, if I give you a specific number of references to use and a word count will you write something?
Of course!
Is pepe enough of an honest businessman to not cheat the word count with ultraviolet prose?
No, if anything I’ll cheat myself with ultra succinct prose. The worst thing for a business is for customers to feel ripped off.
There are some widespread fallacies that are spawned by talking about racial differences in IQ, and IQ differences between ethnic and other groups.
One example: let’s say a person is Caucasian (or Black) and hears that Asians or Ashkenazis (which originally meant German, ironically) have higher IQs than Caucasians. He or she will often then tend to look upon them as smarter.
But let’s say that this Caucasian has a high IQ, more than three sigmas from the mean.
What is that person doing looking up to Asians or Jews (Ashkenzi or other) as smarter or as having higher IQs, when the Caucasian has a higher IQ than over 99% of the Jews and Asians? In all likelihood, the Caucasian is much smarter than any of the Asians or Jews he crosses paths with in most days or weeks.
Conversely, what are the Asians and Jews doing assuming that they are superior in intelligence or IQ?
There is nothing particularly intelligent in these kinds of delusions, assumptions, images and fallacies.
Things are clearer when taken on an individual or case-by-case basis.
And there are other forms of intelligence to consider as well.
This applies to many other variations on the example. Unfortunately, many people never break through the wrong thinking and image-formation that are engendered.
This is why I’m hesitant about spreading HBD ideas to the masses. Many people wouldn’t be able to properly contextualize the information and would thus be inclined towards categorizing entire groups as inferior or superior.
But when it’s discussed by people who can safely handle such volatile information, for the sake of learning more about reality, then it’s good to discuss it.
Individualism matters for these types of things. When evaluating a person you need to look at the individual differences rather than the collective group analysis. That is why we are intelligent and sentient as well as cautious.
pepe, I don’t think you’ve sold enough articles to be considered as a free-market commodity in any way, but since I’m a natural adherent of the labor theory of value for many purposes, I still feel like I’m practically stealing from you by having you write a series of articles for $3.50.
Assuming you get paid $30 an hour, I’ve only paid you for 7 minutes of work, which is surely at least an order of magnitude less than the amount of time it will have taken you to write these!
Someone recently ordered an article for $15 so going forward the asking price is $15. You and JC just ordered early while the price was cheap (I make a lot more than $30 an hour btw).
yeah i was gonna say. you’re definitely a 6-figure guy.
Indeed
I thought you worked as a government transcriptionist in which I figured $30 was generous… but my memory isn’t perfect
I’m a consultant including for government. I said Digit Symbol was a crucial ability in my job, but I’m not a transcriptionist. LOL
Anyway, if you really make that much then the fee is only there to keep us from endlessly groveling to you about writing articles for free
“I said Digit Symbol was a crucial ability in my job,”
Yup, that’s where I must’ve made the association, after which I apparently stored the association in my memory without also remembering where the association came from
where is your PayPal? link?
Just email me and request an article & I’ll email you an invoice.
what is your email?
if you email me I will have your email.
okay I emailed you
I replied.
