I love your lowest common denominator argument. Just proves to me how fucking stupid your countrymen are.

Otherwise I'm going to call you Thilo from now on. Ask Alex what that means.

Well I don't have access to university studies unless I use google maybe I could find some, if you want to resort to childish name calling I can do way better and call you a bunch of things you will understand.

We live in the real world, not some idealised State where far-right politics work the way they're intended. The whole reason that the USA is a complete fucking joke is that their far-right have had the better part of two centuries to work out that their policies don't work the way they would like, and regardless they still base their policies on ideology rather than reason and empirical evidence.

I've seen some of the shit (not much because I'm an Aussie) that Cruz and others have said on TV during their debates and other televised spats. If they tried those policies here they'd be fucking mobbed and then laughed out of office. They'd be seen like Pauline Hanson and Jacqui Lambie. If they tried it in Europe then TV wouldn't even give them airtime. Christ how is it that Americans don't know how horrified everyone else in the world is at their politics?

No, it's a writer/former banker. In all probability right up your avenue, since he made the same ridiculous claims.

As for not having access to universities, you don't even get that there is no such thing as a universal intelligence test fitting all societies. So there isn't any serious study covering the whole world, country by country. Thilo made the same and obvious mistake and got bashed accordingly.

Ok that's fair enough, it just takes a while for you to present your argument.  So you don't believe the a average IQ levels are accurate because the tests are unreliable?  Or you think that IQ itself is not measurable by tests?

I'd be willing to bet that the tests correlate with which immigrants occupy better jobs, as in people like the Japanese, Jewish people, Chinese occupy high IQ jobs such as IT, finance, law and so on. You're totally right though I don't have solid evidence that I've researched yet beyond google.

Oh, please, spare me.

Care to bet what the job chances of the average uneducated japanese or American workers abroad are?

As for intelligence tests. The web is full of articles on that matter. Just for starters.

You know, it occurs to me that although we have discussed the relative merits of vertical and horizontal rock crushers, we haven't discussed drive options. Rock crushers may be driven by a PTO (Power Take-Off) gear from a vehicle's transmission, a hydraulic motor or an electric motor. There are surely other ways to do it but I think those are the main ones. I'm partial to hydraulic motors myself for their combination of flexibility and power.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Intelligence tests are subjective - IQ or otherwise. When we study intelligence in other animals one of the main things we look for is problem-solving abilities, but that's far from the only way that creatures show intelligence. In humans the ability to perform complicated tasks is another example of intelligence.

This whole thing regarding David Duke is complete BS. He disavowed him, Duke said he doesn't endorse him but will vote for him. This is just one of many establishment dirty tricks to smear. When they lie to their audiences, they know those that believe the MSM will swallow and not spit.

They have an agenda, and if information doesn't fit the controlled paradigm it's not talked about, but that which can manipulate the masses is pushed long and hard, because in the end they are fucking you.

The media is NOT controlled by the CIA or any other group, Citizen.

Such groups are only invented by the people who don't understand how government works.

I'm beginning to be absolutely sure that 90% of the time you're incapable of expressing an argument without using sarcasm or indirectly saying what your main point is, or rhetorical questions.  It's like that southpark episode sarcastaball. 

Anyway, I guess my guess was right when I said that your argument is that you don't believe IQ tests are reliable.  All that website really says in the article is that no single test accurately shows all areas of intelligence, and that tests are still on going.
