According to the controversial psychologist R. Philippe Rushton, black people on average are more aggressive, impulsive, sexually promiscuous, and lazy. Racists love this theory. Turns out the truth is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE. Here's new robust data: http://midus.wisc.edu/findings/pdfs/1990.pdf

Further: This is NOT my attempt to "virtue-signal". I genuinely care about data, and will follow it wherever it leads. What DOES piss me the fuck off is when racists keep saying the same shit over and over again as though it were true, and it has real harmful consequences.

Now, to those on this thread who were NOT good faith and who found that the only way they could respond is through anti-semitic comments and blatantly racist comments, go fuck yourself. I rarely say that, but I mean it in this case. Get the fuck out of here with your hate.

To the good faith folks who pointed out methological limitations of this study, that was helpful to think of further studies that can overcome those limitations. It's difficult to measure the GFP without self-report. But self-report *is* related to behavioral data, to an extent.

I've been having wonderfully stimulating conversations with the author of the paper (note I wasn't the author!), who said it was OK to share his further thoughts and context for why he conducted the study: https://scottbarrykaufman.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Response-by-Brett-Anderson.docx
