The 2023 Cremieux Reared-Apart Twin IQ Figure: Pretty Colors, Nothing There
A recent critical review of Thomas J.

A recent critical review of Thomas Bouchard’s “Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart” (MISTRA) by David Bessis led me to take a closer look at a 2023 IQ genetic figure created and posted by Cremieux.

World turned upside down: 1) Jews protesting genocide are "anti-Semites"; 2) U.S. citizens trying to stop ethnic cleansing are "terrorists"; and 3) "The Mismeasure of Man" is "an example of pseudoscience about race and IQ," and (presumably) Murray's "The Bell Curve" isn't.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

So the homicide was premeditated. Planned in advance. Agents knew they wanted to kill him, so they prepared for the opportunity and took it.

More than a week before federal agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, different agents pushed him to the ground after he spit at them and broke a taillight on their SUV, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.

They murder a man in cold blood and wait around to watch him die. There is no hell hot enough. Abolish DHS. Impeach, convict, remove. Trials as soon as possible.

This is really is a great piece, and Kevin makes an important point in it: “the data was made vulnerable because our scientific institutions assume good faith in people. There needs to be an acknowledgment that there are bad-faith researchers. The rules and regulations need to catch up with that”
An excellent, bone-chilling story about a cadre of online racists who stole genetic data from studies on children so they could make specious arguments for the innate inferiority of non-white people, it's embrace by Elon Musk/twitter & how the Trump administration might make it easier to do again.

The Pioneer Fund was also the main funder of the Minn. Study of Twins Reared Apart. The researchers suppressed their control group results not only to match their IQ-hereditarian confirmation biases, but also to please their funders.
