Also, to criticize some of what Ray has said on this topic a bit, I would like to put together a few concepts. One of them is the known differences in IQ amongst population, which you are explaining entirely by environment. Ray, I suppose, says the same thing. However, Ray has often also said that places such as Mexico have superior nutrition compared with most Americans. How does that add up? Are we to assume that the reason all predominantly white, Jewish and Eastern Asian nations have more technology, higher standards of living and a more developed individual rights system is because they happened to have all stumbled upon superior nutrition compared to the nations dominated by other races? I know for a fact that Ray has said many parts of the world, such as areas in Mexico, have superior nutrition and lower stress environments compared to America, and yet the results are what they are regarding IQ and living standards.
These 2 ideas cannot exist together.
When did Ray Peat say that Mexico has superior nutrition ? Do you have a source for that.
Have you been to West Virginia or Mississippi. Some parts of the U.S are worse than third world countries. They don't have running water or plumbing. They are mostly caucasian.
The living standards have only increase in countries like China, Brazil, India and South Africa. The GDP of these countries have been growing rapidly. The economies of the U.S and Europe are shrinking dramatically. I thin you are ill informed if you think Predominantly white countries still have the upper hand in economic development.
