OK that rustles me too. The worst part is this cunt thinks she's good at customer service. Maybe instead of press 1 for english we can press 1 to have your problem solved, press 2 to be seen and heard. 2 transfers you to ole colleen's voicemail.

What people really want is for shit to just work so we never have to encounter customer service at all.

  • Watson's Comments: In a 2007 interview and a subsequent 2019 documentary, Watson stated that he was "inherently gloomy" about Africa's prospects because Western policies assumed Black people had the same intelligence as white people, an idea he claimed was not supported by testing data. He explicitly stated he believed the difference in IQ scores between races was genetic. He made other offensive and controversial comments about women and gay people as well.
  • Scientific Consensus: There is a broad consensus across the biological and social sciences that race is a social construct, not a meaningful biological or genetic classification of human variation. Mainstream scientific evidence indicates that variations in IQ scores between different populations are primarily due to environmental factors such as access to education, nutrition, and systemic racism, not inherent genetic differences.
  • Consequences and Condemnation: His remarks sparked international outrage and led to severe professional consequences. The Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL), where he had served as director and chancellor for decades, stripped him of his honorary titles and severed all remaining ties with him, calling his opinions "reprehensible," "unsubstantiated," and "reckless".
  • Legacy: While Watson is highly regarded for his co-discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA, his later years were tarnished by his promotion of these debunked racist ideas, making him a pariah in much of the scientific community




  • because he wouldn’t understand SCIENCE…

Hmm. What did the numbers say? I was taught in basic High School SCIENCE that experiments should be done in large numbers, controlling for variables as much as possible. Provide the same education / opportunities to everyone, hold everyone just as accountable in class (respect the teacher, pay attention, etc), and see if he was right or wrong. Should be easy to prove in a genuine experiment right?
