| Quote | | And *knowing it's there*, we're sure to find it. The PaleyPlan is most wonderfully postdictive. There are no more unknown nationalities to use as controls. |
Two things:
1) So what if my plan doesn't meet the technical requirements of a scientific theory? It works, and really, that's all that counts.
2) I assert that claim 1) is wrong. I predicted that the Caribbean immigrants to the UK and Canada would regress to their cultural mean, and they have. Look at recent news stories: many post-date my first post in this thread. The fact that we don't have untried immigrant groups is unfortunate, but the point is my plan can predict which immigrant groups among the current nationalities will rise to the top in any Western society. Future prediction: the African immigrants in Australia will fall below the mean performance of the SE Asian immigrants, and create a high-crime underclass within one generation. What is the liberal prediction? Don't tell me: first they'll predict success, and then blame white Australian "institutional racism" when the inevitable occurs, and call for even more speech codes and quotas. Just watch.
Also: you keep saying, "Let 'em in and let 'em succeed or fail on their own merits." But this won't happen, because:
1) Western morality won't permit massive failure among identifiable ethnic groups (nor should it; I'm not a fan of digging mass graves for the "losers")
2) As more immigrants flood in, they begin to rig the cultural and political landscape so that Western cultural values don't apply.
| Quote | Let's posit for the sake of discussion that black Africans are stupid, the stupidity is dominant, no amount of cross-breeding will alleviate this, and that as a whole (with of course plenty of individual exceptions intellectually, culturally, and every which way) they'll just never fit in. OK, fine. Now, should they be *allowed* in anyway?

<sigh> You won't give this up, will you? OK, assuming these "facts" for the "sake of discussion", #### no they shouldn't be let in. Is this a trick question?
More later.
