I’m glad you think individual intelligence differences are okay.
Did you even read the post? He doesn’t think they’re okay:
Am I the only one who’s every bit as horrified by the proposition that there’s any way whatsoever to be screwed before you even start, whether it’s genes or lead-based paint or Down’s Syndrome?
For clarity: My interpretation of his main point is “the rest of the world seems to think that individual genetic differences are okay” and my main point in that comment is “Individual intelligence differences are NOT thought of as okay (by the rest of the world).”
The sentence you singled out is an oversimplified version of what I was actually trying to convey. What I was trying to convey was “I’m glad you think it’s okay with the rest of the world for people to talk about their intelligence differences, but it’s not okay.” It looks like my verbal processor took a shortcut without me noticing it. I’ll fix that to prevent any confusion. Thanks for pointing it out.
I don’t appreciate hearing “Did you even read the post?” yes, I read the post (and responded to other aspects of it also).
