Every day people have innocuous conversations such as "Ohhh, look at how cute that Border Collie is. I heard they're herding dogs and are very intelligent. I wish my Lab was half as intelligent as those Border Collies..."
When it comes to humans, it's just "purely socioeconomic factors" causing intelligence differences between races. The alternative is simply too morbid for our "nice" liberal society to accept.
I would argue denial of reality always causes more suffering than it purportedly "prevents."
- newbie789 6y agoI understand that it might be difficult for nice liberal society to accept that dogs and people differ identically. Considering that it appears as though you’ve accepted this concept as being true, can you please give me an example of an actual category of people that you feel is analogous to a category of dog? I don’t see how that would be difficult. I understand your desire to make the point about things that may be hard for squares to swallow, but what exactly is this truth that you’re privy to? So far this point seems a bit like gesticulating without actually committing enough to make a statement of substance.
