Is nobody willing to acknowledge the reality of genetically inherited IQ? It's like all of our political system is designed around subverting this reality. I suppose society that openly accepts this reality would lead to instability? Is that why we hide the truth, that in fact, yes your genetics do matter? Why do we know about how evolution works, but turn a blind eye to the fact that different pools of genetics have different inherent abilities?
EDIT: As a general statement (Please argue logically I am interested in the counterarguement):
Some how over thousands of years of almost complete separation, people managed to genetically grow different facial structures but stayed completely the same on the inside? So only physical characteristics are heritable? That's how evolution works?
The whole tenant of evolution is that great effective genes are passed on and reflected in offspring. By arguing that there is no genetic difference you are arguing that IQ cannot be passed on and that different environments did not select for and need different levels of IQ. If you are arguing that, then you are denying evolution as a theory.
