Yes, I don't remember Stefan Molyneux saying anything racist. Can someone share an example?
Holocaust euphemism alert!
Racism aside, if you've done even a bit of reading on IQ you know it's been rising for decades if not longer. His Jeffersonian Democracy was built by people with an IQ that would be in the 80s today.
IQ by definition averages to 100, but if you compare present populations to past populations without the normalization there's a significant difference.
I'm no expert but my impression is that it's a widely accepted finding in psychology.
The average IQ is 100 by definition and constantly adjusted, yes, but you can keep track of which way it's being adjusted.
My fairly uneducated guess would be improved nutrition and reduced disease burden are big factors.
As a sign of how far the Western ruling class has gone down the rabbit hole, though, note that Flynn's own take on the broader context is now beyond the pale: https://quillette.com/2019/09/24/my-book-defending-free-spee... .
You don’t see nearly as much “white women with East Asian men,” whose offspring would tend to have higher IQs on average.
Hmmm..."

"If I believed in the toxic racist lie of “white privilege,” I wouldn’t have worked so damn hard to succeed.
I would’ve just waited for my racial dividends to pour in and make me successful without having to lift a finger.
“Privilege” is hard work and providing value.
Try it."

"WOMEN!
STOP taking vain pride in the fact that men want to have sex with you.
You didn’t personally earn those hormones.
Stop pilllaging evolution designed for pair-bonding for petty self-regard."

Men have to fight their way out."
