According to Google results, intellegence is strictly a result of the environment. Which seems like complete crap to me (or suppression of results). I've seen dozen of cases where parents with high intlegense have kids that are super sharp and parents with low intelgense have kids who are dumb. Surely it's not just environmental factors.

IQ scores have been increasing over the last half century, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. Flynn effect gains are predominantly driven by environmental factors. Might these factors also be responsible for group differences in intelligence? The empirical studies on whether the pattern of Flynn effect gains is the same as the pattern of group differences yield conflicting findings. A psychometric meta-analysis on all studies with seven ormore subtests reporting correlations between g loadings and standardized score gains was carried out, based on 5 papers, yielding 11 data points (total N = 16,663). It yielded a true correlation of ?.38, and none of the variance between the studies could be attributed to moderators. It appears that the Flynn effect and group differences have different causes.

IQ is upwards of 80% genetic which is so unbearable for left-wing ideology they literally aren’t able to believe in IQ anymore because it shatters their worldview. Please bring it up every time they try to cite anything scientific.

Most mental disorders are the result of environment in early childhood and we only act like they're not to stop hurting people's feelings. I see no reason why intelligence wouldn't be either.
>A public statement signed by 52 internationally known scholars, all professors or experts in intelligence and allied fields, claimed that "Intelligence is a very general mental capability that, among other things, involves the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly and learn from experience … Intelligence, so defined, can be measured, and intelligence tests measure it well. They are among the most accurate (in technical terms, reliable and valid) of all psychological tests and assessments." sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160289697900118

Intelligence is a trait that is species unique, and it is a selection process - so therefore it is inherited. If it's not directly inherited (doubtful), then it plays a major role in shaping the environment of the offspring. For example, intelligent people have better conversations and better conversation skills, note: not words specifically, they are genuinely better at holding a conversation than their dumber counterparts. Humans are a social species; conversation is extremely vital to us. I pretty much consider it inhumane to breed the dumb people...

Its a bit of a chicken and egg argument.
Are you poor because you're low IQ, or are you low IQ because youre poor?
Safest conclusion is option 2, cus we dont really want to incite genocide

>Any studies showing that intellegince is genetic? Yeah, it's called the experience of life on Earth with humans that literally everybody experiences, lol.
It depends on how much meritocracy vs nepotism is present in society. Obviously, one ethnic group os capable of supressing outcomes for another group if they dominate access to resources or control government. In that respect, intellogence alone is not enough to determine prosperity, since organization and monopoly of violence is also requored. However, a more intelligent group is more likely to achieve this in a diverse group scenario. This is also why diversity leads to conflict.
per wikipedia, iq is 100 percent environmental. checkmate, nazi. i win and you lose

Both mental disorders and intelligence can be affected by early environment, but both remain primarily heritable. Certainly, if you torture an intelligent child long enough, the trauma will rewire the brain. Infants exposed to repeated pain, even if the head in not injured, wind up with different neurology. You can bash a child's head and induce brain damage, lowering IQ, but their genes still determine adult IQ potential. For example, if all babies were given brain injiries, you'd still see iq differences corresponding to race.
