    IQ is racist? It think it’s generally accepted that good culturally neutral IQ test don’t exists and you can’t use it to test differences between races. I think the only problem is that some racists don’t understand this and still try.

      Are you claiming that anyone who believes in IQ tests is racist, or that specific racist people are using IQ tests, or what?

        I’m claiming that racist people look at differences in some standardized IQ tests between western countries and the rest of the world and claim those prove white people have higher IQs while the science understands that IQ tests can’t be used to compare people from different cultures.
