The words "superior race" don't appear anywhere. The most you've shown is that I've cited the same Sanandaji blog post a few times.

Your second and third links don't even mention race, though the second does conditionally postulate a superior gender (i.e., "if the post I'm replying to is correct, then women are inferior").

Ridiculous. Of course those specific words don't appear there, but that would be the most appropriate summarization of several of those posts.

Actually the OP was being charitable. He didn't even mention your superior gender arguments.

If you bothered to read the threads maxklein cited, you'll note I'm quite explicitly agnostic as to "superior race" [1] theories:

But I guess it's easier to call me racist than to actually dig up some hard numbers, right?

[1] I'm assuming that by "superior race theory" you mean something along the lines of "genetic variation in intelligence causes some races to outperform others in school".
