Natural selection cannot pick characteristics that are less fit.
Different perhaps but no less fit. Seeking  justification that some
environments were less demanding is laughable. They all demand survival
and ingenuity of different kinds.

You see the same rhetoric about all races on the down side of the
cultural stick. You can read stuff in psychological books about Indians,
French Canadians, etc..depending on who is writing it and when. When
Jefferson wrote in the 1800's he disparaged the black's creativeness
while observing the Indians ingenuity. But if he had observed the same
black in Africa he would have noted exactly what he missed seeing of his
enslaved counterpart. I leave the reasons to you.

Some people have genuine difficulty with the tests being wrong. But let
me illustrate. The Stanford Binet was considered the font for many
decades. Faithfully they would ask the questions about what numbers
followed a series of other numbers. There was a "right" answer. I
remember scratching my head and wondering how one was supposed to come
up with the answer. Finally I figured out a primitive Pascal's triangle
but still got lots wrong. 40 years later they find out and admit that
"they" were wrong. There could be any number of right anwers by figuring
any sort or rule. I knew that. I want my IQ scores rewritten.

The tests are wrong. I know that and I know how. Not just because of the
above point but a more fundamental misunderstanding about the types of
human intelligence. Neither the blacks nor the "elitist" whites would
accept the answer so I keep it to myself. It is for another era to
accept.
