What does /pol/ think about this black man?

I agree with everything I ever heard him say.

I never heard him say this, but if you are correct that this is the only thing I disagree with him with so far.

so, we can say he's our guy?

Exception to the rule, the majority is still shit so we shouldnt expect anything but shit from the majority

>>130402043
No, you fucking tard. He implies that IQ of races can change over time. What he kinda directs attention to is how the welfare state and illegitimate children can make a race decrease in IQ.

Nobody is /my guy/ as I'm not a homosexual, but I did watch a few of his interviews once and I agreed with the points he made.

Where is the definitive proof of this though? Because it seems like some serious broadstroking to say that all of one race are smarter than another. I've met some fucking moronic white people.

Yeah Sowell is great

>>130404234
>all of one race are smarter than another

literally nobody is arguing that. this is some pretty basic shit.
>>
>>130402043
I´ve read his book black rednecks and white liberals. What I got out of this book it that blacks in the US have a subculture that opposes education and a traditional familiy. Those factors lead to low IQ. The proof that IQ is not a matter of genetics is that black people who grew up outside of that subculture did just as well as the people around them. He used the example of black sodiers that were stationed in germany after ww2 and their children.

Obviously there are intelligent Africans; zero belong in white communities. They should be in their own countries working to make them better. It's going to be a long hard road ahead.

Hes a nigger working on humanities, everything he says about niggers is invalid unless he absolutely trounces them
>>
>>130404935

Utterly false, IQ is between 75-80% inheritable.

This has been studied hundreds upon hundreds of times, your bizarre theory has been disproven in 100% of them.

Of course culture makes a difference; it's just a tiny, minuscule difference compared to biology. Sub-Saharan Africans are a hominid population that is pure homo-saliens, whereas Europeans and most Asians have between 2 and 4% Neanderhalic admixture. That is a far greater difference than any cultural upbringing can compare to.

>Sowell has served on the faculties of several universities, including Cornell University and University of California, Los Angeles. He has also worked for think tanks such as the Urban Institute. Since 1980, he has worked at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.

Those who can, do; those who can't, teach. This is not an impressive track record and likely was only done to fill affirmative action quotas.

>He writes from a libertarian conservative perspective, advocating supply-side economics.

You realise how limited and stupid you sound whenever you say you do anything "from X perspective". Communists say "from a marxist-leninist" perspective. The fact that you say he is good simply because he adopts a likeminded approach shows that you are susceptible preconceived judgement about something before you even evaluate it.

>Sowell has written more than thirty books (a number of which have been reprinted in revised editions), and his work has been widely anthologized.

Quantity over quality.

> He is a National Humanities Medal recipient.

Shit-tier award, awarded arbitrarily not on any sort of merit and has a track record of disproportionately awarding minorities.

>Basically a kang and more intelligent than most white people
Literally pic related.

>Hates affirmative action, socialism and the whole liberal agenda

These give him brownie points and enable him to amass a following with conservatives. The truth of the matter is without affirmative action, it's unlikely he would have been able to outcompete intelligent whites that otherwise would have obtained the positions he had in life.
>>
>>130404234
When people say that population A is more intelligent than population B, they are clearly talking about averages. Saying that you found a person in A that is dumber than some person (or even the average person) in B proves absolutely nothing.

That's what is called "anecdotal evidence".

This is just objectively false.

A conflict of visions
Intellectuals and society
The vision of the anointed

Great reads, especially his explanation on political beliefs as a basic extension of your view of human nature. His thoughts on intellectuals as people who merely traffic in ideas, avoid reality, and pay no price for being wrong is a great eye opener as well.

I also like to point out how Sowell is an perfect example of the stranglehold the left holds on higher education for minorities, I.e. you are only a black intellectual if you parrot left-wing ideology. Sowell is a hundred times greater than a Ta'nehsi Coates or Talcum X, and much more prolific as well - but guess who gets to be a spokesman for "black issues"?

I didn´t say that I agree with him I just tried to explain the point that made. I agree that there are many factors that lead to high/ low IQ. One of them is culture.

Good man. Have one of his books in my backlog

>>130407098

There is no evidence that culture has a significant impact on IQ. Nutrition does, but still, about 80% of genetically inherited. Culture is merely an aspect of biology interacting with the environment. Intelligence makes culture, not the other way around. You may as well claim that culture determines height or eye color. What your suggesting is literally paranormal.
>>
I liked Basic Economics.
>>
>>130407952

Neat, read up on Basic Poliics as well and then you can stop being a libertarian, as is appropriate for people who are not 20 years old or niggers.

It actually goes both ways

Sowell is what I'd call 'one of the good ones.' He gets that niggers are nigging themselves for the most part...I'd still check my pockets after he left the room desu senpai

If Thomas Sowell is redpill for black people then David Caroll is the blackpill for black people.
