A little historical context:
Treating black people as if they're "lower IQ" than white people has been the basis of hundreds of years of brutal oppression.
Which is why people are extremely uncomfortable giving someone who espouses those sorts of views any power whatsoever.
Oh, and fuck people who believe that. They're racist. They're wrong. And I don't want to be anywhere near them, personally or professionally. How's that for exercising my freedom of speech?
If that makes me intolerant of dumb racists, whelp, I guess I'm intolerant.
