Who are the EAs claiming that race-and-IQ conversations are untouched by white supremacism? I have never seen an effective altruist claim anything like that.
discussions about race and IQ always focus on black people having lower average scores on IQ tests than white people, and tends not to discuss claims by race scientists that white people have lower average scores than Asians
Discussions about race and IQ that are instigated by white supremacists often mention results showing that black people score lower than white people while omitting results showing that white people score lower than Asians; discussions in academic psychology are more likely to mention all of those results together. And I’ve never seen anyone in effective altruism mention anything on this topic, until this post and your comment just now.
I don’t see how it’s relevant to effective altruism. Looking for group differences on IQ tests doesn’t seem to help with fundraising, preventing pandemics, or distributing bednets, so unsurprisingly it never comes up here.
