…And if it weren’t for that one joke by Hannibal, Bill Cosby would be very uncontroversial.

    the distribution of genetic traits associated with intelligence is non-zero

    This doesn’t even make sense. What the fuck is a zero distribution? A probability distribution cannot be “zero” in any sensible meaning of the word. Did you mean uniform?

    Also obv citation needed you sack of spuds.

      I think he is trying to say something like “non-zero skew”, but really, he just means “I subscribe to race science, but only for the articles”.

        I think you’re being too generous. What they wanted to say is “There are genetic traits associated with intelligence.” However, not inserting probability distributions in every fucking sentence is a class 2 misdemeanor in Rat circles, hence what was written.

          There are genetic traits associated with intelligence.

          Which is obviously true, since the genetic traits of BEING A HUMAN quite strongly correlate with intelligence.

          There’s no way to say the quiet part without saying it out loud here!
