Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

"Are racists dumb? Do conservatives tend to be less intelligent than liberals? A provocative new study from Brock University in Ontario suggests the answer to both questions may be a qualified yes.
The study, published in Psychological Science, showed that people who score low on I.Q. tests in childhood are more likely to develop prejudiced beliefs and socially conservative politics in adulthood."
Proof is sweet..

What sucks for you is you have to learn how to get along with them. They have a lot of people and a lot of votes. Some compromise it probably a good thing. I think mocking each other isn't.
But carry on. It's working out so well for everyone!

The study is controversial. but it is there. Argue with the study, To argue with their motives is a fallacy.

Yes, liberals who "know better" than everyone else...
"Eugenic sterilization is an urgent need ... We must prevent multiplication of this bad stock."
- Margaret Sanger, April 1933 Birth Control Review.
"Eugenics is … the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems."
- Margaret Sanger. "The Eugenic Value of Birth Control Propaganda." Birth Control Review, October 1921, page 5.
Where does "enlightened" thinking lead?
"The undeniably feeble-minded should, indeed, not only be discouraged but prevented from propagating their kind."
- Margaret Sanger, quoted in Charles Valenza. "Was Margaret Sanger a Racist?" Family Planning Perspectives, January-February 1985, page 44.
More "enlightened, intelligent" thinking:
"Problem-makers reproduce in greater percentage than problem-solvers, and in so doing cause the decline of civilization… In short, if capable, intelligent people had most babies, society would see its problems and solve them."
- Elmer Pendell, from Sex Versus Civilization, 1967
I'm pretty sure that Hitler would have agreed with the sentiment that I.Q. is an indicator of party affiliation.

Pretty funny that the only quotes you can find are from pre-1960s. Margaret Sanger died in the 60s. These views were common place back then regardless of affiliation.

So, what you're saying is that it's NOT a "superior mindset" to claim the "other side" has a low I.Q., is prejudiced and racist?
That IS the claim here...."Conservatism" = dumb, racist and prejudice.
I'm not sure...I think that this thread title is somewhat "prejudiced" in it's blanket statement.
Tell me, if someone has negative qualities, are they "inferior" to someone with BETTER qualities? What if it was a product? Would you say that a burger made from rotten meat was JUST as good as a burger made with fresh meat?
I think you fail to see the folly of this "enlightened" position. This claiming to be better than someone else (which is what this is doing) seems a bit...familiar. And here I thought the liberals painted themselves as "more fair" and "compassionate" than the "evil conservatives".

How would you quantify creativity?
Does this get classified as creative in your mind?
