In social filtering, Were those of the negro race who ended up in the military of a different social upbringing as a percentage than those of the whole population as non Negroes. And what was the average percent negro of those who were classified as negro's. Pocahontas is 1/1024 percent native American. Were the Negro's who were able to find a companion to impregnate of the average Negro intelligence. Were they of the average percentage of Negro in the US or in countries that are still predominately Negro.

I do not believe that WW2 troop research proves anything. Now does the guy Watson's who discovered DNA have a better understanding or insight into how that DNA translates into human mental and physical characteristics that make success more or less likely in the range of social settings or upbringing? Maybe he does, I have no idea. But I also would never sanction him because he expresses his honestly held beliefs.

I believe that he like I would never use such considerations in dealings with any person.

I do believe intelligence does give anyone a better chance at survival and the likely hood of passing on one's gene's. But that is less and less true as modern tech and medicine allows far more and more survival of those who are less fit. And a certain level of advanced economic success and social freedom creates conditions leading to cerebral extinction. Children require sacrifice.

So populations where survival is the most challenging may be becoming smarter on average.
