YEAR IN REVIEW 2021 My video explaining "evidence based" empiricism, how particularizing from the general is as big a mistake as generalizing from the particular. Explains RACISM. [9b,more technical; how aggregation of data does not preserve properties] https://t.co/Xi9CQO3ejw — PolitiTweet.org

Many traits (& disease risk factors) are misunderstood as "genetic". Twin studies (by the sinister IQ eugenist program) only extract *environment conditional* correlations. Diabetes, myopia & hemorrhoids can show 60% heritabiliy in Scarsdale NY, but 0% in the Kalahari desert. — PolitiTweet.org
