I'm going to bump this because I want others to see how retarded the OP is.

How am I retarded?

because youre on Veeky Forums shilling a discredited racist book, youre hardly going to be one the nations finest young talents now are you skippy?

I don't see why statistics are racist

Sorry but you're the retard thinking you have to bump a thread on Veeky Forums 12 fucking minutes later

>Discredited
Oh sweetie...

Don't worry OP your post was fine. This guy is just a Commie

As someone who is neutral on the subject, can you give sources?

Just read The Bell Curve, it's made entirely out of statistics and facts. Literally the only argument against it is that it's "pseudoscience" because it's 'racist' regardless of its scientific backing and so should be discarded as any form of credible information.

The Bell Curve was never discredited and it's not racist. The author's premise was that the cognitive elite, the most intelligent people, would dominate society when demographic barriers like race and gender were removed. If anything it's anti-racist.

OP please read gun germs and steel for a balanced perspective.

Don't listen to this fag

Pretty much any philosophy or political science book will attempt to persuade you into thinking something, although they "persuade" you with logical appeals. Could you be more specific as to what you're looking for?

the fact that someone put some graphs and stats in a book doesn't automatically make it true

agreed. In fact, i'd go so far to say that statistics make it more likely to be untrue..

I'm not looking for any genre or the way the author tries to persuade you into thinking a new position on a certain subject (via logos, pathos, ethos, other Rhetorical Devices). Honestly I'm just interested in any book that tries to persuade the reader.

You mentioned Philosophy or Political Science; If you have book recommendations that are in these genre ranges then I'd be interested in hearing the titles.

The information in the book is not only correct, but has stood the test of time, reflects reality, and aligns with common sense. Please go back to r*ddit if you expect people to buy your muh rayciss narrative.

In fact, I'd go so far to say that using mathematics makes it almost guaranteed bullshit

ah shit, had me a good chuckle. Thanks user

Well, in political theory there's the classic Leviathan, by Thomas Hobbes. It argues for the necessity of the state. If you're a Christian, he argues specifically from Scripture in the third section of the book.

In Philosophy I just read Critique of Pure Reason by Kant, in which he outlines a system of how our brains work, to put it very simply.

For that second book the point which he argues the entire book is that Reason has its limits, and that going outside of those limits leads us into unresolvable questions.

Cool, thanks for the book titles

In truth, the very fact that it uses math at all is what makes it racist. Math is hard.

Look at the famous mathematicians in history. Greeks, Middle Easterners, Indians, and then an uninterrupted stream of Europeans, and more recently the East Asians. Not a single black person of note. An entire field systemically oppressing black people...it's despicable to say the least

Is that you, Rakim?

I'd even go as far as to say that books containing bullshit are guranteed to contain mathemathics

Bitch, black people are the smartest people that have ever existed. It takes heart, wits, and courage to survive in a 130 desert hunting lions.

The fact that they are still alive is astounding, whereas many american natives were wiped out when the europeans came. Blacks seemed to withstand many diseases and behaved in order to breed. Whites will be executed shortly.

Bitch, blob fish are the smartest people that have ever existed. It takes heart, wits, and courage to survive in the depths of the oceans with 130 sharks swimming around.

The fact that they are still alive is astounding, whereas many dodo birds were wiped out when the europeans came. Blob fish seemed to withstand many sharks and behaved in order to breed. Blacks will be executed shortly.

Because you're asking for non-fiction books in the most convoluted way. Give me some advanced argumentative books that try to persuade you into thinking something. Who talks like that?

Literally /pol/ and /pol/ false flagging. When will you faggots fuck off?

A great example of what compulsory education achieves in reality. Anyone who touched the basics of statistics knows that normal distribution is not the only one, and that approximating anything based on assumption it would suit most is an error. However, the test-based, targetless, one size fits all education produces MASSES of people who only aware of something visually attractive with zero awareness of its scientific properties. It becomes a stereotype public uses, and as many other stereotypes, it is exploited by swindlers and tale-tellers. Read some rags, they reflect the commoner's state of mind. Some time ago, devilish creatures and natural curiosities worked, then magical electricity became hip, then X-, Y-, or Z-rays, then radioactive aliens in space rockets.

This was fun. Thanks guys

I only believe what's left under my windshield wipers or on subway trains.

I enjoyed it.

You don't argue with subhuman libshits, you shoot them.

stephen king is a fatass? did not know

You wrote a lot to say little

Dead lmao

>Dabs

People of all races can be smart, but averages and medians are a thing you dumbass.

Pro-tip: people who call The Bell Curve racist haven't actually read it

hahahaha holy shit a fucking afrophile
