Charles Murray

Thoughts on his books? Why does the left reject his work so much, even though they've pretty much been proven by science and objective reality?

Leftists don't believe in science or reality.

Is it often that there are two murray threads at the same time on this board?
Is he discussed a lot here?

Link to the other thread?

Riding public transport proves everything he's written

Isn’t he a libertarian?

lmfao. true, user. true.

Its right next door user

shilling for the American Enterprise Institute.

He is such a nice man trying to find out real answers to hard questions and everyone just fucking shits on him

>log on to Yea Forums
>first three threads I click are "da jooz" conspiracies, slobbering over Murray's pseudoscience, and whining about women

/pol/ and /r9k/ really are ruining this board.

It’s become even more terrible since 2018. When Memerson rose up to the occasion during the tranny pronoun bill this place went to the shitters. Before that we had Atlas Shrugged threads, IJ threads and Game of Thrones threads and even though the level of discussion was terrible, it was better than this cesspool.

YAAY SCIENCE!! SCIENCE FUCK YEAH!! WOO HOO!!

The case for polygenic scores is likely over stated. We really don’t know enough. We still can’t effectively disentangle nature vs. nurture with only associations, though the twin studies are a good start

The twin studies are inane. They could just as easily prove that the contemporary middle class suburban American families that get selected for adoption provide a similar enough environment to account for any similarities and the variations in experience account for the discrepancies.

I agree, mostly/partially

Man, it's no wonder noone likes you guys, at least the right's condescendence is transparently stupid. Yours just oozes arrogance, as if you had anything to offer after 90 years of theorizing everything and anything off human understanding.

This book will show you to the door, gentlekin

Coming Apart is excellent. This is how sociology should be done.

He is an Aristotelian.

Prove it empirically.

Ok

Coming Apart: The State of White America is a good read. He actually approaches issues from a largely economic and classist perspectives. I've never read The Bell Curve but I think it gets a bad reputation because lots of brainlets love sperging out over IQ far too much, which has in turn sullied his reputation.

Agree with him on life being highly deterministic and that it should be the primary ambition of society to provide a basic income.
