You'll find that this has been largely debunked in the 6 years since it was published.

I'm sure it was racist 6 years ago when it was published, as well.

Calling something racist is not the same as debunking a study.

WAT. race is a social construct! how on earth can you decide that the "white" race and the black "race" have different average IQs from each other when the very idea of who is "white" and who is "black" is entirely socially decided and arbitrary with respect to genetic similarities?

Ok, be that as it may, where does "Frenchman" begin or end? How does one define who is "French" enough to be a "Frenchman"? The problem becomes even larger when one is talking about social constructs such as "white" and "black," which are broader than ethnic groups and are instead categories created by humans to include or exclude other humans from groups with or without power.

All categories outside of math and perhaps particle physics have exceptions or blurred lines between them. That doesn't mean they are not useful. In fact, they are essential for our ability to think. It's only when liberals don't like to discuss an issue that they suddenly go super-postmodern and refuse all categorization, while refusing to deconstruct or even question their own favorite categorizations.

Also, if you can't categorize people into races, how can there be affirmative action? How could there be a civil rights movement? Are people who identify themselves as black simply wrong?
