Maybe! He's also very active on twitter.
He once said Nikole Hannah-Jones and him both deserve tenure for writing about race. I told him to submit a tenure application to Howard University like her and he "liked" my tweet. He reads it all!
Obviously. If we assume negative things about any author (and especially a rational one) we're clearly just getting emotional and not steelmanning hard enough.
Nice. I have to admit I didn’t know who Turnbull and Sailer were
before reading this, but I found it pretty funny how you went as far as
contacting the author of the biography in question.
I only studied anth for a year but I do know a little about Turnbull.
The reason alt right scum hate Turnbull so much is because they don’t
like that his research showed things like that Mbuti men are very
involved in raising children, which contradicts their own stupid just-so
evpsych nonsense. That said, anthropology of that era had A LOT of
problems, especially with racism.
Yes I don't mean this as a general defense of Turnbull or anything like that (I'm barely aware of his work), I just wanted to document the unsupported allegation Steve Sailer made about him.
I don’t write long things very often. Hope people find it interesting!
Do you really think a rational person would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?
Then, when questioned, double down, blame someone else, or otherwise act like a school-aged child?

Good job doing the actual research.

Marxbro proving that you can be anti-capitalist and still bring the receipts.
On a related note, I’d like to petition the mods to restore the tradition of repeatedly banning marxbro so that he has to keep inventing new usernames
