Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew dies at 91

Call me crazy but I don't see the value of concrete and tall buildings, nor do I measure how civilized a nation is by those traits.

Give me stable Somalia with our unique infrastructure mixed with the beauty of nature.

Mongoloids are naturally more intelligent than Negroids.

You seriously believe that is true?

Yes.

Just like how Balkan people and Nilotes are naturally taller, Mongoloids are naturally smarter than most other races.

That's down to their diet. Dutch and Scandinavians are also taller than other western Europeans.

It's not just their diet. South Sudanese who live in Australia are taller than the national average for a reason. Same thing with Balkanite diaspora.

Some groups just have a genetic edge.

They've maintained that diet for hundreds, if not thousands of years and may still eat the same foods they ate when they were in their homeland. A few years in a far away land won't change it. Was that seriously your rationale for that erroneous comment?

Give me something else man.

It's because of natural selection and not diet. Give Congolese pygmies the Dutch diet and they will still be short.

Human pygmies are mainly found in rainforests, so the minimal exposure to sunlight = minimal vitamin D getting through to them and their diet is usually very low on calcium. Diet plays a huge part in human growth and stature.

If you believe that natural selection makes 'negroids' dumber than the rest of the world then you have serious issues wallahi.

Diet is EVERYTHING. People seriously underestimate the importance of diet.


Btw, the Dutch use to be one of the shortest peoples in Europe until the changed their diet. And Nigerians surpass all other U.S. ethnic groups when it comes to obtaining degrees. Genetics is overrated. People use genetics as excuse for their failings and when they don’t understand something.

Genetic+Enviorment > Genetics

Wrong. African Pygmies have a genetic mutation that makes them shorter:

Nigerian Americans are not modal Nigerians. They are a selected group on the upper ranges of the Nigerian IQ distribution.

From your link.

Short stature in human Pygmy populations is thought to be adaptive and its global distribution indicates either ancient common ancestry among tropical hunter-gatherers or extensive convergent evolution [2]. Several selective mechanisms have been proposed to explain a fitness advantage for small body size in tropical, forest-dwelling, hunter-gatherer populations. These include resistance to heat stress under humid forest conditions [2], reduced caloric requirements in a relatively food-limited environment [2], and a life-history trade-off between cessation of growth and early reproduction

As I said, this mutation you are talking about happened mainly because of their diet and their natural habitat.

The study found mutations associated with their short stature. It's clearly genetic, it doesn't matter that their diet led to it. Now it's coded in their genome and won't change for many generations.
