The hilarious thing about Nassim is that he debunks IQ on a technical level. He does this quite well, demonstrating that for IQs above 100 there is no real correlation between IQ and "performance." But his own argument does nothing to address the fact that sub-100 IQ individuals are low-performing. Then he goes on Twitter and calls people Quillette-neo-nazi-IYI-idiot-racists for suggesting that low IQ countries are low performers for a reason.
Am I missing something? I've never read any of his books but this is how things seem to me following his Twitter. His math is fine but his application seems a bit...inconsistent, as far as I can tell.

You can't btfo atheism by denying that religion makes descriptive claims about the world, that's literally embracing atheism in everything but words

He's a moron. Everyone with half a brain cell knows some populations of people are just unintelligent.

The IQ things seems to be an attack on the IQ test itself and statistics, whether or not he's right I don't see how you get from critiquing the utility of IQ to disproving race realism.
