> literally calls a study that links IQ and race "sophisticated" I did not read the quote that way. Looking at the original: > Neither he nor I would dare reduce all class differences to heredity, and he in particular has some very sophisticated theories about class and culture. He seems to be saying the opposite: that Murray has theories to explain IQ beyond just heredity (i.e. [social?] class and culture). It seems to me that Scott is drawing attention to Murray's non IQ/Race theories here, then using that common ground to jump into universal basic income. If he were to call the IQ studies sophisticated, here's how I would have worded it: (Abridged quote of evil twin Scott) Neither he nor I would dare reduce all class differences to heredity, [however he] has some very sophisticated theories about [hereditary genetics].
