Yeah there is so much untold in the reporting and I'm not going to trust either tpots or border cops. I have no idea whatsoever what to make of this.

I learnt about it because I was so damn interested in sauerkraut.

What the fuck?

The agents were conducting a routine roving patrol when they stopped Bauckholt and a female in the town close to the border. During a records check, the unidentified female occupant was removed from the vehicle for further questioning, broke free, and began shooting at the agents, the incident report shows.

After the female suspect was hit by return fire, Bauckholt emerged from the vehicle and also began firing on the agents. He sustained gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead.

....... What the fuck?

I don't really mind either in general, but the look of this sort of picture with semi-idealised homunculi of Trump and Musk just bothers me on a gut level. Most probably because of the hordes of twitter scam bots posting this kind of stuff.

"Zero", so true

oh my god

how do you even define "raw, intellectual horsepower" and how does it differ from knowing how to formulate questions mother fucker

Also in the comments to the followup you've got people debating whether believing that there are genetic differences between races constitutes scientific racism.

Steve Sailer doesn't think so. To which Philip replies

The point isn’t that what you’re saying isn’t true, that point is that for most people who have heard of Steve Sailer, Steve Sailer is the textbook example of a scientific racist. So I think we have a good working definition of scientific racism, which is just, whatever Steve Sailer says. I say this unironically with no disrespect; I also consider myself a scientific racist.

TGGP asks

Who doesn't think there are genetic differences between the races?

gottem

In the followup

One possible answer is that the causal pathway is high GDP → lots of education → lots of practice with abstract reasoning → high abstract/symbolic IQ. I don’t think this can be the whole story, because some countries that “cheated” to get high GDP (eg oil sheikhdoms) can’t translate it into IQ points at the same rate as everyone else. I’m stuck with the boring basic explanation that maybe you need to do a lot of abstract reasoning tasks to get high GDP.

You can't possibly be this dumb. Tfw you're so blinded by racism you transfer yourself to the platonic realm where numbers are things in themselves.

yoooooooooooooo

oh my god i didn't catch that this was astro slate star and thought i was reading some overtly racist piece of shit instead of a covert racist piece of shit. i haven't kept up with him lately but this this seems very fucked up even by scott's standards.
