MIT Technology Review: “genetics must account for more than half of intelligence”
by Zenaan Harkness 08 Apr '18

So the "everyone is absolutely bloody equal dangit!" crowd were right and diversity omelettes will definitely lead to more happiness, wealth and a generally brighter future. Or something ... https://dailystormer.name/mainstream-science-magazine-affirms-genetic-basis… Mainstream Science Magazine Affirms Genetic Basis for Intelligence https://www.technologyreview.com/s/610339/dna-tests-for-iq-are-coming-but-i… DNA tests for IQ are coming, but it might not be smart to take one direct link to the paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/nrg.2017.104 Remember, to the neo-marxists, individuality, especially on any basis of recognition, improvement and mastery of ones traits, especially IQ, is grounds for instant dismissal from life - look at Maoist China, Stalin's purges, Pol Pot and the rest - the Marxist dictators of the "Left" start by "purging" the intellectual 'elite' (the educated, the wealthy, the competent), and then, as has been repeatedly pointed out, starts eating itself (one could guess this is out of fear, since so much murder has recently taken place). Happens every single time in history that the lefty marxists take power. Just like you can guess who's behind today's suppression of free speech: Every. Single. Time. >From the MIT article above: Several educators contacted by MIT Technology Review reacted with alarm to the new developments, saying DNA tests should not be used to evaluate children’s academic prospects. You see, IQ capacity, and the development of one's capabilities, is seen as a literal threat - i.e. the dominance hierarchy is largely predicted by IQ and conscientiousness leading to social standing, which is the overwhelming predictor of access to sexual partners and position in the dominance hierarchy (as Jordan Peterson junkies now well know), and having such knowledge quantified empirically is seen as a threat. Thus the dozens of millions of murdered dead bodies piled up during the last century. Learn your lessons, folks. And create your world,

Juan, please, did you really send the pretty aggressive message below? Usually, you would never attach stupid non sense pics, and "monkeys from the dark ages" doesn't seem the kind of expression that you would use to offend "feminazis" or any kind of people... Sounded out of tone, strange. :-/ It was a heavy and aggressive provocation mentioning "the West". Not your style. Sorry, it remembers me a lot when that stupid loser was faking messages of some members of this list... :P ---------- "Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination, your creativity, or your curiosity.

Then again americunt 'libertarians' are just fascists with a thin veneer of libertarian rhetoric so it's hardly surprising. So libertarians are apologist of google, goldmand sachs and feminazis! Cool!. Oh, it's also worth looking into the 'progressives' involvenment in eugenics, and the voting record of the 'democratic party' regarding slavery haha. last but not least, the same western 'progressives' who stridently whine about 'womenyzzx' fictional oppression in the west are the same supreme scum who blow up women and children in the midle east for fun and profit.

Fedz seize BackPage
by Razer 07 Apr '18

07 Apr '18

"The United States government has seized Backpage.com, the controversial classifieds website. A notice informing visitors of the seizure was posted on the site, and a Justice Department spokesperson confirmed the notice. According to the notice, the website and its affiliates were seized “as part of an enforcement action” by the FBI, as well as other federal and local agencies. The notice provides little other information, saying the Department of Justice will provide more at 6PM EST today. Backpage was the target of allegations that it facilitated sex trafficking and prostitution through its adult section, a controversy that took years to unwind and culminated in the arrest of the company’s CEO and eventual removal of the adult section. “The FBI can confirm that law enforcement activity is occurring,” a spokesperson for the FBI’s Phoenix field office told The Verge. The office referred further questions to the Justice Department, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Last month, Congress passed controversial legislation meant to give law enforcement more power to stop online sex trafficking. Backpage became a central part of the discussion around the legislation, which many sex workers opposed. Developing..." https://www.theverge.com/2018/4/6/17207838/backpage-com-seized-website-down…
