    Him and his fans deserve to be mocked. The next time you interact with a fan of his, ask them why he wont take an IQ test on stream if thinks Africans naturally have a lower IQ.

      I looked this up and every single study reports lower iq in Africa. Asians have the highest. Is this bullshit?

        Yes. Firstly, iq tests have a bias to the culture that created them. It’s based on the sorts of problems that that culture values. You can’t use it to compare to different populations with different cultures.

        Secondly, depending on what source you found, the study might have been run by racists with an agenda.

        Thirdly, Africa is a huge continent with wildly varying cultures. You can just average those results together and get anything useful out of it, unless you have a racist agenda.
