@@Lottodds Nowhere in Murray's book can you find the words "stupid and lazy". "Conscientiousness" is one of the big 5 personality traits, and it varies among individuals/genders.

So, to answer your question, it is likely that poor whites are generally on the lower end of the IQ spectrum as well.

Fascism was defined by Mussolini (the inventor) as government and businesses working together towards a common goal. By that definition I quite frankly don't know whether Mr. Murray is a fascist. However, he certainly fuels talking points of eugenicists
@@sicsempertyrannis3782 of course race is a social construct. There is nothing within humans that would fit the definition of race. I do believe in evolution. I even regularly debate against creationists. Humanity has extremely little genetic variation. And genes don't determine intelligence. The iq is completely dependent on social factors and maybe some brain structure (which is not directly determined by genes). I myself do have some issues with people with severe illnesses which can be inhereted procreating, but I don't want to solve them by killing or forced sterilization.

Yes, the vast majority of the scientific community repudiates Charles Murray's claims about Race and IQ and his book The Bell Curve. Stephen Jay Gould, an esteemed evolutionary biologist, said Murray was wrong in assuming that intelligence could be accurately represented by tests, that people can be accurately rated by such tests, and that measured IQ is unchanged through life or through circumstances of culture, training or experience. Everybody should also read Stephen Jay Gould's book "The Mismeasure of Man" which is a very good and comprehensive critique of Charles Murray's book The Bell Curve and on the bullshit idea of "biological determinism"

1) The Bell Curve argued, primarily, that higher IQ people do better in life as measured on a variety of indicators, from income to likelihood of being in prison to health to likelihood of being in an injury-causing accident. 2) It did have one chapter, out of 11, that discussed racial differences in average IQ (which are not in doubt, those the causes of said differences are a subject of controversy) 3) TBC has not been 'discredited'. 4) Murray has produced excellent scholarship in the past two decades.
"The 23 year old book, which famously argued that black people, on average, had lower IQs than whites, has been widely discredited, and Murray has long been considered irrelevant." Is it really true? Honest question. Murray is clearly not irrelevant in every sense. You just made a video about him. Seems like a odd description. If he's irrelevant, why did you make a video about him?
Steve Fei Hou the summary of his Bell Curve book is that IQ predicts social/family and career success. Some groups on average gave higher iq than other groups, but individuals across groups with similar iq has similar outcomes in terms of career, family stability, rates of incarceration, etc. So a xxx person with a 130 IQ will do about as well as a yyy person with a 130 IQ. Problem is that because the xxx group on average has a 1-2 standard deviation lower IQ on average, the number of people with an IQ of 130 in the yyy group is much higher than the xxx group.
I don't think you need to read his book. Just look at Europe and then look at Africa and tell me there isn't a difference there. Africa has had 10,000 plus years to build a modern society and yet has failed to do so. There must be a reason for that.
@@micahjohnsonboxing6409 He's not advocating using the government to stop people from having children, he's advocating not using the government to encourage people to have children. There's a subtle difference. He wants people having children to be decided by whether or not they can afford them, not on what the government's (implied) opinion is. And this is how it should be: why should a useless person (whether black, white, Asian or whatever) be having children? That's just creating more of a strain on society.
Actually his book has been proven true the more we learn, in the past 23 years we have more or less beyond any doubt proven that his studies are 100% correct, so I think it must be a joke how in the description you claim his book has been discredited when it has actually been supported by all current studies and research including DNA, Genetics, and the most recent scientific IQ studies/research.

Actually the IQ studies have NOT been discredited at all. I know i was horrified at the racial difference claim when i was much more PC but if you apply reason and logic it makes sense that there would be differences - thought intraracial differences would be greater so individuals should be seen simply as individuals. But it does explain why different groups of people do better than others as a whole and blasts the myth of white privilege
The smartest person in the world could be black, the dumbest could be asian or white. Why people are upset over the average I don't get as it says nothing about an individuals IQ. Overall there are more dumber males than females as the female iq clusters around the middle, but there are more males at the top end of the scale. Says nothing again about individuals, why the butt hurt...

Read the book first before you protest. He uses the most solid science in his books. Also higher IQ doesn't mean that you are a more valuable person anyways. I had a Mensa member IQ 160 friend back in highschool and she used her intelligence to make other feel bad. She had the ability to read music faster than professionals and one day she heard my mom playing the piano slightly wrong, asked that she would try, played better than my mother and publically humiliated her. IQ160 friend was an awful person character wise, but now she is a surgeon, and I suspect she is at least very skilled in her own field and patients need her. Not because she is an amazing human but just because she will perform surgeries well.
This is a good point... you can be a good person with low iq and a bad person with a high iq. However it's harder to be a productive contributing member of society with a low iq and you're not going to be inventing and uplifting humanity...

Its okay, because everytime the activist react in this way they only give people like Murray more power. It generates more interest into what speakers of his ilk have to say. I've never heard of this guy before but now I want to read that chapter of that book that he wrote. "No Platform" protest such as these do not work in the era of the internet, they just become a marketing tool LOL
I read the book back when it came out, and I was impressed. I even presented on it in a grad school class at the request of my prof. My key takeaway from the book was: a higher level of intelligence in whatever human body it finds itself in will, on average, tend to produce a more productive life for that body.
Likewise. Every time I see authoritarian protesters violently trying to de-platform someone who does science based on objective evidence, I buy the book. Maybe two copies.
If you don't know long story short Murray and another author Richard Hernstein published a book in 1994 called The Bell Curve. It was highly controversial because it basically said that intelligence is completely heritable, in other words, you are born with a certain IQ and that does not change. He uses the analogy of the normal distribution (or bell curve) in statistics. When you measure out IQ scores for a population on a normal distribution or bell curve, 100 is defined as the mean (or average) and there is a 15 point standard deviation. That basically means that about 68 percent of the population is going to score between 85-115 on an IQ test. 95 percent will fall between 70 and 130. Statistically speaking there will only be just two percent of everyone that will have a score of >130 and another 2% below 70. The premise was that if a kid had a certain level of intelligence that they were at a certain level and that is where they were always going to be. Their upbringing and environment did not matter. I was doing my undergrad in psychology at that point in time and I just remember learning about all the terrible claims they made in the book. The authors claim that someone cannot come from a troubled background who has parents with low intelligence and become intelligent themselves. It gets into critical race theory and such and even then it was highly controversial. It also leaves little room for arguing that someone with a low IQ has a different type of intelligence--it is basically smart people are successful and those who aren't smart are not.
Yeah this is not true. It says that intelligence is around 75% genetic and the environment has indeed an effect in the intelligence but it's overrated. If you test the difference in IQ between individuals when they're 3 years old and they're raised in the same enviroment, the differences in intelligence remain.
What's sad is that after Murray and Hernstein wrote the Bell Curve the APA created a task force of some of the best psychometricians to investigate the claims about Race and IQ in the book. The task force agreed with 95% of it and the other 5% they just said we don't know enough yet; but these people wouldn't know that because they haven't read anything about the subject. citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.134.1282&rep=rep1&type=pdf
Polite old man gets attacked for doing a speech and he is the bad guy? You Americans have done a horrible job at teaching your children respect, manners and common decency.
For anyone who thinks Murray is a "fascist" or "racist", or simply doesn't know about his work, I'd strongly recommend listening to him on Sam Harris's podcast, which takes a very cautious and reserved approach to the subject of race and IQ ruclips.net/video/Y1lEPQYQk8s/видео.html
I would respect their work more if they studied economic standing and IQ before they delve into race and IQ. I think it's fairly obvious that economic standing, what schools you go to, how stable your home is, etc, are REALLY what cause the difference in IQ. Not race.
You're right! I haven't read it, and cannot make that judgement. However, this is the internet though so you could just as easily not have read it and just be throwing this out there to make his work seem more legit. Economic standing is a lot to control for, there are a lot of aspects to it. I'm not sure he will have controlled for it right, but now I'm compelled to find out.
These kids were presumably born between 1997 and 2000. They are way too young to know how naive the are. Eventually, they'll stop talking and start listening. Hopefully, they'll also learn to trust their own judgement rather than follow the crowd. Charles Murray is a conventional, conservative, middle-of-the-road scientist. Whether or not you agree with the data and his findings in The Bell Curve, to call him a fascist does a great injustice to the millions of people throughout the 20th Century who suffered and died under real fascist regimes. And to de-platform him at a university is the kind of authoritarian response that true fascists promote.
IQ is the leading factor in determining how successful a human is going to be. If research shows that some groups of people have a lower IQ than others it´s extremely important to know WHY so that we can take measures to boost their IQ. Maybe they don´t breastfeed as much? Maybe they hit their children? Maybe its nutrition? Maybe it´s cultural? One thing is for sure, shutting down those who are trying to look into this is never going to solve anything
If you are truly confident in your values you will respond in a quiet and respectful manner to EVERYONE. I tend to be very left-leaning but I will always hear somebody out and engage with them in a rational and intellectual fashion. De-Platforming is completely wrong, illogical, and goes completely against the very idea of post-secondary education.
Watch this interviewer gets destroyed by Jordan Peterson in a VICE documentary. At the end of it, he was giggling nervously like a 5 yr old girl by his own stupidity.
That's false, suppression of freedom of speech is not an important part of Fascism and it can be argued that it's not part of Fascism at all, there have been Fascists who supported freedom of speech, like Mosley. don't fall for linguistic tricks of commies, Fascism should not be used as a negative term to label someone with.
So you interview the guy and only put 10 seconds of him speaking on the video, I wonder what he said in the interview that you are trying so hard to hide from people.
Person 1: "Let's have an honest discussion. I will answer any of your questions." Person 2: "La la la! I can't hear you, racist! La la la!" Which person is more intellectual, more mature, and more likely to be correct?
Where have his claims in the Bell Curve been debunked? The description of this video just claims that but doesn't cite any sources. I have yet to see any scientific rebuttals of that one claim about IQ and race. Also, only a small part of his book was about race. So, can anyone post links that refute his claims about IQ and race. I just want to see all the evidence.
These students seem to be objecting to the claim that blacks and whites have different average IQs. But among experts - *including* all those mainstream psychologists like James Flynn and Richard Nisbett, who argue that the origin of the deficit is 100% environmental - the ONLY controversy is whether genes contribute to the B/W IQ gap. There is no controversy about whether the gap exists. Allowing open discussion of these topics would foster the development of a more sophisticated kind of IQ denialism, but these students don't even know the basics.
"We're then going to head over the speech and see what he has to say." ...followed by a scene wherein students rally to no platform Charles Murray...I got nothin'.
Don't join a bandwagon yourself. Have you read the book? There's plenty of articles that talk about it, as well as his own published literature, and the words that come out of his own mouth.

His theory makes perfect sense when you look around the world and notice which people build what type of civilizations, some being more successful than the others.
Many people pretend that certain areas of the world aren't still running around in loincloths and having more children than they can sustain or for which they can provide.
The behavior of these minorities disrupting and causing a scene confirms his book was, and still is, 100% accurate. Bless you Charles. May truth prevail in a society that is anti science. #science
Bad ideas shut themselves down. We don't need to give up the 1st amendment to stop bad ideas. I'm a student and consider myself pretty damn far to the left on the political spectrum, but I would defend the right of anyone to speak, even a Nazi. We enter dangerous territory as a society if we start deciding who can speak and who cannot. I will say though, if the speaker is inciting violence or physically threatening harm on other people, then yes they should be shut down. Free speech should have limits, this is not it however.
Murray's work stands to reason. It is unthinkable to believe that ethnic groups that evolved geographically separate and underwent entirely separate experiences should have equal intelligence. Poverty and violence in Africa and the MidEast are most likely linked to low-IQ. Facts aren't racist.
Well a lot of the statistics he provides ironically demonstrate systemic racism. The iq charts he has actually correlate with lead poisoning statistics. There have been recent studies which have highly discredited his work.
+Valesto93 I didn't say black people evolve "to be dumber". My point was regarding the fact that there is nothing to suggest that peoples who evolved in completely different locations of the planet would have the same skills, physical or mental. Each ethnic group has its own peculiarities that most likely stem from natural selection. The most likely reason why blacks are better at most sports is because they have evolved in a region where running from a predator was a matter of survival. There is no point in engaging in a scientific discussion if you are willing to ignore anything that might make you uncomfortable. The reality shows a huge disparity between Europeans and Africans in terms of propensity towards violence and intelligence. It doesn't make one group better than the other, it's just a simple observable fact.
Systemic racism is about the hierarchy of social strata and the socio-economic suppression of any one particular group. Can you disprove that the IQ quotient measurement system isn't antiquated and eurocentric?
These college students are utterly brainwashed. Charles is a decent and respectable man. Courageous and driven in his work. Something these students know nothing about. His work is also factually accurate, too. It’s a shame that Vice never bothered to reference any of it.
These activist have no argument that can hold water on his scholarship or his technical argument. They merely don’t like his message even though the vast majority of them could not give an articulate explanation of what his message is since most of them have never read any of his work.
This video missed the very crucial clarification of Murray's argument. He just said, "they haven't read my book" and left it at that, so I have no idea what he was talking about. The students claim he was arguing that IQ is race related, but he never actually set the record straight in this video. Or can he even set it straight? Maybe he is the racist they say he is. A good start, Vice, but I think this particular issue merits more than a five minute clip. I want details.
I appreciate activism, but maybe these kids should graduate first, get a job in the real world and then come to their conclusions about the world they live in. Seems like a lot of them are just entitled brats wasting their parents money on an education that they aren't completely getting.
It did make me chuckle that a PhD student yelled in Murray's face with a semi-argument and didnt stick around for the rebuttal. The kicker is that he was yelling about Murray supposedly saying he wouldn't be a good PhD. Yes sir, you will probably not be a very good PhD student, not because you're black but because your behavior is not scholarly.
Come now, imagine that thing actually reading Nietzsche, Kant, Hegel, Mann, Goethe, Sartre, and really understanding it. It bothers me to witness inferiority so emboldened.
These protesters make me sick. A person should be allowed to voice his views on things, no matter where they are on the political spectrum. The minute someone begins interrupting the speaker, campus police should throw them out.
In a free Society all manner of thoughts should be allowed to flourish as when they appear, The black student seems offended by Mr Murray. His book is available worldwide somehow and somewhat.
Did any of the protesters actually read the book? And the controversy is one specific chapter out of the whole book. You can look up statistics on-line.
I've decided that whenever I hear about a public intellectual being prevented from speaking at a college I'll read their most popular book, since they probably have something interesting to say.
If all races are physically equal, then why do only blacks win gold in Olympic 100m sprint? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_metres_at_the_Olympics Try to find a non-black who won gold,silver, or bronze in 100m race in the past 50 years.
I wonder how much big girl accusing the man of fascism will eventually cost the taxpayers in heath care services, especially after pursuing a useless degree.
he's right,i can bet most people in these protests dont know what his book says.the journalist failed to actually ask the students what was fascist about him
"If the reader is now convinced that either the genetic or environmental explanation has won out to the exclusion of the other, we have not done a sufficiently good job of presenting one side or the other. It seems highly likely to us that both genes and the environment have something to do with racial differences. What might the mix be? We are resolutely agnostic on that issue; as far as we can determine, the evidence does not justify an estimate." (The Bell Curve pg. 311)

How is it that people with PhDs in Political Science don't know the definition of fascism?
Because the left changes the definition when it suits them.
They do. You don't. Hope that helps.
@@matthewharris8819 if you're unable to understand his point, you're an idiot
Fascism was defined by Mussolini (the inventor) as government and businesses working together towards a common goal. By that definition I quite frankly don't know whether Mr. Murray is a fascist. However, he certainly fuels talking points of eugenicists
@@sicsempertyrannis3782 of course race is a social construct. There is nothing within humans that would fit the definition of race. I do believe in evolution. I even regularly debate against creationists. Humanity has extremely little genetic variation. And genes don't determine intelligence. The iq is completely dependent on social factors and maybe some brain structure (which is not directly determined by genes). I myself do have some issues with people with severe illnesses which can be inhereted procreating, but I don't want to solve them by killing or forced sterilization.

Tomasz Matuszczyk yes his work is generally regarded as pseudo-science.
Yes, the vast majority of the scientific community repudiates Charles Murray's claims about Race and IQ and his book The Bell Curve. Stephen Jay Gould, an esteemed evolutionary biologist, said Murray was wrong in assuming that intelligence could be accurately represented by tests, that people can be accurately rated by such tests, and that measured IQ is unchanged through life or through circumstances of culture, training or experience.
Everybody should also read Stephen Jay Gould's book "The Mismeasure of Man" which is a very good and comprehensive critique of Charles Murray's book The Bell Curve and on the bullshit idea of "biological determinism"
2lεgiϯܢ I could say the same thing about Charles Murray... most scientists repudiate him.

1) The Bell Curve argued, primarily, that higher IQ people do better in life as measured on a variety of indicators, from income to likelihood of being in prison to health to likelihood of being in an injury-causing accident.
2) It did have one chapter, out of 11, that discussed racial differences in average IQ (which are not in doubt, those the causes of said differences are a subject of controversy)
3) TBC has not been 'discredited'.
4) Murray has produced excellent scholarship in the past two decades.
"The 23 year old book, which famously argued that black people, on average, had lower IQs than whites, has been widely discredited, and Murray has long been considered irrelevant." Is it really true? Honest question. Murray is clearly not irrelevant in every sense. You just made a video about him. Seems like a odd description. If he's irrelevant, why did you make a video about him?
Steve Fei Hou the summary of his Bell Curve book is that IQ predicts social/family and career success. Some groups on average gave higher iq than other groups, but individuals across groups with similar iq has similar outcomes in terms of career, family stability, rates of incarceration, etc. So a xxx person with a 130 IQ will do about as well as a yyy person with a 130 IQ. Problem is that because the xxx group on average has a 1-2 standard deviation lower IQ on average, the number of people with an IQ of 130 in the yyy group is much higher than the xxx group.
I don't think you need to read his book. Just look at Europe and then look at Africa and tell me there isn't a difference there. Africa has had 10,000 plus years to build a modern society and yet has failed to do so. There must be a reason for that.
Steve Fei Hou I think you dont understand the point of the video
@@micahjohnsonboxing6409 He's not advocating using the government to stop people from having children, he's advocating not using the government to encourage people to have children. There's a subtle difference. He wants people having children to be decided by whether or not they can afford them, not on what the government's (implied) opinion is. And this is how it should be: why should a useless person (whether black, white, Asian or whatever) be having children? That's just creating more of a strain on society.
@@1969ryson this is literally the dumbest observation of all time.

Actually the IQ studies have NOT been discredited at all. I know i was horrified at the racial difference claim when i was much more PC but if you apply reason and logic it makes sense that there would be differences - thought intraracial differences would be greater so individuals should be seen simply as individuals. But it does explain why different groups of people do better than others as a whole and blasts the myth of white privilege
Any sources to back this claim?
The smartest person in the world could be black, the dumbest could be asian or white. Why people are upset over the average I don't get as it says nothing about an individuals IQ.
Overall there are more dumber males than females as the female iq clusters around the middle, but there are more males at the top end of the scale.
Says nothing again about individuals, why the butt hurt...
They existe yes but no it doesn't make sense how could evolution have had such a big impact in so little time ? I don't believe because of that culture isn't a big part of the difference.

Read the book first before you protest. He uses the most solid science in his books. Also higher IQ doesn't mean that you are a more valuable person anyways.

She had the ability to read music faster than professionals and one day she heard my mom playing the piano slightly wrong, asked that she would try, played better than my mother and publically humiliated her. IQ160 friend was an awful person character wise, but now she is a surgeon, and I suspect she is at least very skilled in her own field and patients need her. Not because she is an amazing human but just because she will perform surgeries well.

I read the book back when it came out, and I was impressed. I even presented on it in a grad school class at the request of my prof.

If you don't know long story short Murray and another author Richard Hernstein published a book in 1994 called The Bell Curve. It was highly controversial because it basically said that intelligence is completely heritable, in other words, you are born with a certain IQ and that does not change. He uses the analogy of the normal distribution (or bell curve) in statistics. When you measure out IQ scores for a population on a normal distribution or bell curve, 100 is defined as the mean (or average) and there is a 15 point standard deviation. That basically means that about 68 percent of the population is going to score between 85-115 on an IQ test. 95 percent will fall between 70 and 130. Statistically speaking there will only be just two percent of everyone that will have a score of >130 and another 2% below 70. The premise was that if a kid had a certain level of intelligence that they were at a certain level and that is where they were always going to be. Their upbringing and environment did not matter. I was doing my undergrad in psychology at that point in time and I just remember learning about all the terrible claims they made in the book. The authors claim that someone cannot come from a troubled background who has parents with low intelligence and become intelligent themselves. It gets into critical race theory and such and even then it was highly controversial. It also leaves little room for arguing that someone with a low IQ has a different type of intelligence--it is basically smart people are successful and those who aren't smart are not.
Yeah this is not true. It says that intelligence is around 75% genetic and the environment has indeed an effect in the intelligence but it's overrated. If you test the difference in IQ between individuals when they're 3 years old and they're raised in the same enviroment, the differences in intelligence remain.
What's sad is that after Murray and Hernstein wrote the Bell Curve the APA created a task force of some of the best psychometricians to investigate the claims about Race and IQ in the book. The task force agreed with 95% of it and the other 5% they just said we don't know enough yet; but these people wouldn't know that because they haven't read anything about the subject.

I would respect their work more if they studied economic standing and IQ before they delve into race and IQ. I think it's fairly obvious that economic standing, what schools you go to, how stable your home is, etc, are REALLY what cause the difference in IQ. Not race.
You're right! I haven't read it, and cannot make that judgement. However, this is the internet though so you could just as easily not have read it and just be throwing this out there to make his work seem more legit. Economic standing is a lot to control for, there are a lot of aspects to it. I'm not sure he will have controlled for it right, but now I'm compelled to find out.
Ok, and people should listen to his podcast and get themselves to that conclusion instead of just taking your word for it.
These kids were presumably born between 1997 and 2000. They are way too young to know how naive the are. Eventually, they'll stop talking and start listening. Hopefully, they'll also learn to trust their own judgement rather than follow the crowd.
Charles Murray is a conventional, conservative, middle-of-the-road scientist. Whether or not you agree with the data and his findings in The Bell Curve, to call him a fascist does a great injustice to the millions of people throughout the 20th Century who suffered and died under real fascist regimes. And to de-platform him at a university is the kind of authoritarian response that true fascists promote.
IQ is the leading factor in determining how successful a human is going to be. If research shows that some groups of people have a lower IQ than others it´s extremely important to know WHY so that we can take measures to boost their IQ. Maybe they don´t breastfeed as much? Maybe they hit their children? Maybe its nutrition? Maybe it´s cultural? One thing is for sure, shutting down those who are trying to look into this is never going to solve anything
If you are truly confident in your values you will respond in a quiet and respectful manner to EVERYONE. I tend to be very left-leaning but I will always hear somebody out and engage with them in a rational and intellectual fashion. De-Platforming is completely wrong, illogical, and goes completely against the very idea of post-secondary education.
I doubt you're very left leaning. I literally would not hire a leftist in this world and I'm a fucking atheist.

So you interview the guy and only put 10 seconds of him speaking on the video, I wonder what he said in the interview that you are trying so hard to hide from people.
Person 1: "Let's have an honest discussion. I will answer any of your questions."
Person 2: "La la la! I can't hear you, racist! La la la!"
Which person is more intellectual, more mature, and more likely to be correct?
Where have his claims in the Bell Curve been debunked? The description of this video just claims that but doesn't cite any sources. I have yet to see any scientific rebuttals of that one claim about IQ and race. Also, only a small part of his book was about race. So, can anyone post links that refute his claims about IQ and race. I just want to see all the evidence.
These students seem to be objecting to the claim that blacks and whites have different average IQs. But among experts - *including* all those mainstream psychologists like James Flynn and Richard Nisbett, who argue that the origin of the deficit is 100% environmental - the ONLY controversy is whether genes contribute to the B/W IQ gap. There is no controversy about whether the gap exists.
Allowing open discussion of these topics would foster the development of a more sophisticated kind of IQ denialism, but these students don't even know the basics.
"We're then going to head over the speech and see what he has to say." ...followed by a scene wherein students rally to no platform Charles Murray...I got nothin'.

Many people pretend that certain areas of the world aren't still running around in loincloths and having more children than they can sustain or for which they can provide.
They really proved his point about race and intelligence.
So tolerant.
These protestors are sad. When Mr. Murray tries to engage them and have an actual conversation, they walk off.
The behavior of these minorities disrupting and causing a scene confirms his book was, and still is, 100% accurate. Bless you Charles. May truth prevail in a society that is anti science. #science
Bad ideas shut themselves down. We don't need to give up the 1st amendment to stop bad ideas. I'm a student and consider myself pretty damn far to the left on the political spectrum, but I would defend the right of anyone to speak, even a Nazi. We enter dangerous territory as a society if we start deciding who can speak and who cannot. I will say though, if the speaker is inciting violence or physically threatening harm on other people, then yes they should be shut down. Free speech should have limits, this is not it however.
Murray's work stands to reason. It is unthinkable to believe that ethnic groups that evolved geographically separate and underwent entirely separate experiences should have equal intelligence. Poverty and violence in Africa and the MidEast are most likely linked to low-IQ. Facts aren't racist.
Nature is racist and racism isn't wrong.
Well a lot of the statistics he provides ironically demonstrate systemic racism. The iq charts he has actually correlate with lead poisoning statistics. There have been recent studies which have highly discredited his work.
+ted Alpha, Can you define "systemic racism" for me, please?
+Valesto93 I didn't say black people evolve "to be dumber". My point was regarding the fact that there is nothing to suggest that peoples who evolved in completely different locations of the planet would have the same skills, physical or mental. Each ethnic group has its own peculiarities that most likely stem from natural selection. The most likely reason why blacks are better at most sports is because they have evolved in a region where running from a predator was a matter of survival. There is no point in engaging in a scientific discussion if you are willing to ignore anything that might make you uncomfortable. The reality shows a huge disparity between Europeans and Africans in terms of propensity towards violence and intelligence. It doesn't make one group better than the other, it's just a simple observable fact.
Systemic racism is about the hierarchy of social strata and the socio-economic suppression of any one particular group. Can you disprove that the IQ quotient measurement system isn't antiquated and eurocentric?
People on both end of spectrum don't realize morality and science doesn't have to go together. Science is science. Morality is different thing.
"Discredited" lol. Ok VICE.
These college students are utterly brainwashed. Charles is a decent and respectable man. Courageous and driven in his work. Something these students know nothing about. His work is also factually accurate, too. It’s a shame that Vice never bothered to reference any of it.
These activist have no argument that can hold water on his scholarship or his technical argument. They merely don’t like his message even though the vast majority of them could not give an articulate explanation of what his message is since most of them have never read any of his work.
This video missed the very crucial clarification of Murray's argument. He just said, "they haven't read my book" and left it at that, so I have no idea what he was talking about. The students claim he was arguing that IQ is race related, but he never actually set the record straight in this video. Or can he even set it straight? Maybe he is the racist they say he is.
A good start, Vice, but I think this particular issue merits more than a five minute clip. I want details.
He tried to set the record straight, the student walked away with a hissy fit.
Yeah, he seemed very willing to respond but was yelled down.
i agree. vice is getting a lil better on content, but still shallow in analysis.
So if IQ is race related he's a racist?
He's set the record straight multiple times, he even set the record straight in his book
I appreciate activism, but maybe these kids should graduate first, get a job in the real world and then come to their conclusions about the world they live in.
Seems like a lot of them are just entitled brats wasting their parents money on an education that they aren't completely getting.
It did make me chuckle that a PhD student yelled in Murray's face with a semi-argument and didnt stick around for the rebuttal. The kicker is that he was yelling about Murray supposedly saying he wouldn't be a good PhD. Yes sir, you will probably not be a very good PhD student, not because you're black but because your behavior is not scholarly.
Come now, imagine that thing actually reading Nietzsche, Kant, Hegel, Mann, Goethe, Sartre, and really understanding it. It bothers me to witness inferiority so emboldened.
These protesters make me sick. A person should be allowed to voice his views on things, no matter where they are on the political spectrum. The minute someone begins interrupting the speaker, campus police should throw them out.
You need to arrage your meetings early in the morning, as Jordan Peterson does: woke people don't usually get up early.
In a free Society all manner of thoughts should be allowed to flourish as when they appear,
The black student seems offended by Mr Murray.
His book is available worldwide somehow and somewhat.
well, disprof it, if he's wtong it shouldn't be that hard
They are just proving his study right …
We’re circling the drain now... I get the feeling if that young big student would have punched Murray there would have been applause
If he'd have shot him there'd have been applause
The unwillingness to listen will only lead to people being thrown against the wall, so to speak.
Nah.
Did any of the protesters actually read the book? And the controversy is one specific chapter out of the whole book. You can look up statistics on-line.
I've decided that whenever I hear about a public intellectual being prevented from speaking at a college I'll read their most popular book, since they probably have something interesting to say.
One of the saddest things is, these poor children think they are being so brave
Children will behave like children, if allowed.
If all races are physically equal, then why do only blacks win gold in Olympic 100m sprint?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_metres_at_the_Olympics
Try to find a non-black who won gold,silver, or bronze in 100m race in the past 50 years.
Charles Murray is such a great and brave man.
We can’t refute what you have to say so we’ll just call you names and bar you from speaking. Well done
Will buy every single Murray book. Just busy now to read it have something else. So glad we have people like him.
I am a liberal and I will attest to the fact that Charles Murray is one of the most misunderstood people when it comes to divisive political issues.
This was a great interview. To hear the man speak his views in his own words.....Oh right, That's not what this was.
I wonder how much big girl accusing the man of fascism will eventually cost the taxpayers in heath care services, especially after pursuing a useless degree.
LOVE Charles Murray! Such a smart, articulate guy. and very enlightening books.
he's right,i can bet most people in these protests dont know what his book says.the journalist failed to actually ask the students what was fascist about him
"If the reader is now convinced that either the genetic or environmental explanation has won out to the exclusion of the other, we have not done a sufficiently good job of presenting one side or the other. It seems highly likely to us that both genes and the environment have something to do with racial differences. What might the mix be? We are resolutely agnostic on that issue; as far as we can determine, the evidence does not justify an estimate."
