sorta. If the sub-human hasn't entered puberty yet, there is a chance. However, once a nigger, always a nigger.
Neuroplasticity is too limited after puberty begins.

yes
not for (you) though

Veeky Forums is more obsessed with IQ than /pol/
Matthew Foster
Only Veeky Forums is obsessed with IQ. /pol/ is obsessed with race. /pol/ would hate eugenics based only IQ more than anything else, because racism is the opposite of meritocracy.

China is already doing it. I hope it becomes a norm all over the world. Fuck stupid people. I really wish I had a higher iq, but I don’t. I want an entire generation of kids to have iq 50 points over the average.
Kayden Jones
Hmm. But there the transhumanists on /pol/ that care more about intelligence and behavior than race per se.
Jackson Scott
/pol/ thinks of iq like a normie thinks about it. Veeky Forums thinks of iq as something malleable and something that humans can overcome and become better at manipulating.

China is not doing it. We're not even sure which genes contribute to intelligence. At a minimum it would be hundreds, and that would be a lot of editing.
David Nguyen
It can, but it seems like IQ is dependent on very many genes, so that you will have much to discover yet, if you want a really bug change. Also, there are probably very complicated coherences.
