In case you are interested in specific lines of research, here is a Twitter overview thread of 25 specific threads on that topic (you need an account to see them all): https://twitter.com/PaoloShirasi/status/1549416261075062785 https://twitter.com/PaoloShirasi/status/1549416261075062785
I don't blame you if you'd rather not look at the research too closely, it kind of feels like an infohazard. But it's a good source to bookmark and to perhaps come back later.
- hwillis 3y ago> it kind of feels like an infohazard. God, what a disappointing euphemism. Just stick with redpill, would you?
- cubefox 3y agoI don't know what you mean.

- cubefox 3y agoThat's speculation by "Rational Wiki", a far from rational and highly politically biased group that defames everything and everyone as "racist" that doesn't fit their world view. This has in the past included attacks against highly respected people like Scott Aaronson and Scott Alexander. They do not focus on evidence-based arguments, as real rationalists would. They don't calmly post peer-reviewed studies like Paolo Shirasi. Their Modus operandi is a) doxxing and b) to slander people with the label "racist". But reality is what it is. It doesn't care whether someone labels a hypothesis as racist or not. The only way to grapple with reality is to find out what it is.
- tptacek 3y agoI don't read RationalWiki pages for analysis, just for the receipts they have, which was the point of that link. You've cited a pseudonymous racial supremacist.
- cubefox 3y agoI cited someone who posted empirical evidence from a lot of peer-reviewed studies. Slapping the defamatory label "racial supremacist" to anyone who cites evidence one doesn't like doesn't change anything. Apart from that, a "supremacist" usually refers to someone who thinks his group is the best one, but we have no indication that he is Ashkenazi Jewish or even East Asian.
