Excellent primer on a field that has had me entertained for over more than 30 years (first encounter in 1994 during my training in Jokioinen, Finland). My only critiscism is that the references are a bit skewed, but it is promer, not a review...

By the way, that's why more normal geneticists don't want you to research the genetics of racial difference and the heritability of being convicted of sex crimes etc. It's not because we can't handle the truth or whatever; it's because the research would have zero implications for anything.

There are, in my view, 25 things everyone needs to understand in light of recent events: 1) Those out in our communities last night were not protestors, but organised far right extremists. 2) Their actions align with fascist ideologies. 3) So yes: these are fascist practices on our streets. 🧵
