My point is this. If you can not counter his arguement SCIENTIFICALLY, all you have to offer him is the same old Stuff he has, I believe heard for decades and decades but has also had to deal with the conflicting reality of things when it comes to the intelligence of the Black man. I am a full blooded african and even I know we africans have made way too many mistakes for us to even open mouth to try to refute such claims without something solid to go with. From where I stand, we ( Africans ) have provided people like Watson with enough AMMO for him to come up with such statements be it from prolonged study of africans or just personal conclusion. I mean how do you want to tell him he is wrong?? By telling him that one black slave made so many products from peanuts about 100 or more years ago even though today we have chaos and hunger all over Africa today? Unless you are a better intellectual than he is, I doubt you can CONVINCE him any other way, but to show him how intelligent Africans really are and showing him one or two successful black men is not going to do the trick. Even we africans know that ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS My man: what are you saying?

Rather than spewing forth invectives towards the drivel a scientist has said, why not sit down first and analyse it thoroughly.
We are most times too emotional before and after we take actions towads issues!

This is simply a hateful irrational statement made by a retarded racist dirt; and such individual should never never be entertained. We have tons of exceptionally intelligent black folks every where; guys, do not let us be a fool or a master's boy. This statement is absolutely absurd and should be rejected under any circumstances.
Don't waste your time trying to justify stupidity.

If someone calls your mother a fool, will you go and do a research?

My man: what are you saying?
I am saying unless you can SHOW HIM THAT AFRICANS ARE INTELLIGENT BY YOUR ACTIONS, there is not much you can do but actually SHOW the world he is wrong. I mean this is simply the man throwing out a challenge to all BLACK PEOPLE and all Africans. What do you do when someone challenges your intelligence?? INSULT THE PERSON??? CLAIM THE PERSON IS NOT BEING TRUTHFUL even though it is clear the person is?? I will take an honest admission anyday over someone else's cover up cause to me that is incentive for me to work hard at proving I am not who the person thinks I am. If someone calls your mother a fool, will you go and do a research?
It will be a mere waste of time for me to research what I already know.
There is absolutely no justification, this old dirt can go straight to hell!
Actually, @BigB1, If someone calls my mother a fool, even my own mother would say I should ignore such a person since I know that statement is not true. So in this case, your example does not work at all.

My point is that in a nutshell we do not need a scientist to tell us Africans that we are stupid or doomed. It is blowing all around us. Is this simple enough for you to grasp?  Watch it now! The name is almondjoy not almondjogay.

Because if you have not noticed, that happens to be the way the western world operates. ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS, get it?? The Western world did not come up to give us lectures about how in 30 years they WILL get to the moon or make microwave ovens, they actually went in and DID IT and now can brag about it. ACTION has been the RULE of the GAME for centuries. We have always known it to be the case, why suddenly make it seem the "BLACKMAN" is the only one who gets to PROVE himself .

@Rookie, I love the way you left out the rest of that statement that I made there. Nice try. Maybe if you left your emotions at the door and tried to approach this in a more intelligent manner, you would see my point as it is and not as you want it to be. Why do we keep playing to their tune?  I am saying unless you can SHOW HIM THAT AFRICANS ARE INTELLIGENT BY YOUR ACTIONS, there is not much you can do but actually SHOW the world he is wrong.

While it is difficult to accept or fathom such a statement on the whole black race, and I know for sure that there are very intelligent black people, have you ever stopped to wonder why it is difficult to find a prosperous black country? Not every black person is a descendant of slaves and many in Africa are definitely not! It is a food for thought for me and I never stop wondering as the colour of skin to me is just pigmentation to be able to live comfortably in our environment. So what is our problem?

So I understand Aldmondjoy's statement that we should prove it instead of arguing about it but honestly if we sit there and let people like this man indoctrinate us with his garbage and not refute it then soon we will buy into this rubbish. Slavery was based on baseless unproven "scientific" mombo jumbo among other things, including that the black brain is smaller. Also I feel like most Nigerians are even more angry because he first said Africans. I do agree that the African government are greedy and people in authoritative positions tend to be thirsty as hell, we can't just sit back and pretend like corruption is not everywhere. It has been the Western (White people) culture to over emphasize anything black and twist it into ugliness. His scientific claim is not new its just an old argument polished. He has no scientific proof so why should we remain silent.

Its only the stupid ones that will actually rise up and starting raining invectives on the guy. Every man is entitled to his own opinions. He has aired his views on the black race. It is left for you to decide whether what he said holds validity or not.
Raining invectives on him only proves his points further about the black race. We don't reason before we take actions!

I am doing something about my state of hopelessness. -- this says it all. You know it's a little difficult to think straight when one suffers from a syndrome known as Hopelessness. A hopeless state is always a pityful one though. Speaking of hopelessness, I can prove it to you that it is often a byproduct of foolishness. Yes, I will quickly do a research on this to back up my point that Hopelessness is a consequence of Foolishness. I hope you will agree with me if I am able to "scientifically" support my proposition.

Raining invectives on him only proves his points further about the black race. We don't reason before we take actions! Typical of Africans and Nigerians especially. That is why my blood boils over when I deal with Nigerians especially. Lots of noise and not much reasoning. Don't blame them anyway. Not much brain cells left from an environment that constantly deprives one of the ability to learn. -----Physical and spiritual poverty!
I am not exactly sure what denial you are experiencing.

Chi-ching! Yes, I feel hopeless trapped amongst a stupid race. You could not have put it better. Do I kill myself, no! I just try to remove myself from it all as much as I can. Nothing to add there! If mere words from another human being can do this to you rookie, I am afraid we really do have a long way to go. Yes, I feel trapped in a race that has no hope. Once again, you do not need a scientist to tell you how wretched the typical "African being" is. Just take a long hard look in the mirror and look at the people around you! It is going to be difficult and I can only say there is no hope for us at this stage. Pity!

Don't blame the post. If you notice, not everyone in here is actually in attack mode, let alone, attacking individuals for not seeing it as you or anyone else does. The man expressed his opinion or his own conclusion on the matter. What are you going to do?? Attack him to make a point  As you and I can see, that is leading you no where else but to attack your own kind. Again, I ask that you set your emotions aside and review what he said from an intellectual point of view and maybe you will see how that is more a challenge for you and for all africans to come up higher and show people like him that we are not idiots.

Goodluck Kobojunkie. This is Nairaland a microcosm of Nigeria!!!! Don't waste your cyber breath! Intellectuality is not a compatible phenomenon with the "African Syndrome"! Thank God I have found an escape route from the madness! If I had to deal with most typical Nigerians on a daily basis in my life, I think I would have long committed suicide! I swear!  They drive me nuts with all their noisy bullshit!

@BigB1, You ain't seen nothing yet. This man is clueless, always beating about the bush and never making sense. He starts by claiming the man based his statement on science and advised people who do not share that view to go into research. When other scientists made it clear that the statement is baseless and devoid of any scientific study he turns around and now claims the man must have noticed what he stated. A question was put forward as regards whether he will go and do research if someone calls his mother a fool and his very surprising answer was that he will ignore the person because he knows his mother is not a fool. I wonder how one person will agree with the position that Black people are stupid and yet state that his mother is not stupid or a fool. Another moron here believes that the man only aired his opinion but will come down heavily on people that disagree with the man even when they are also airing their opinions, now the man has a small reason to make that statement going by the position of this moron. Bottomline is that quite a number of Africans have found themselves in difficult situations in real life and the only way they feel better is blame the race and accept that the Whites are better while the Blacks are stupid and funny enough almost 100% of the people with such twisted position reside in foreign lands and only God knows how low they effortlessly stoop to worship the Whites in their countries while trying to take out their frustrations on public discussion forums.

Stop ridiculing yourself and more importantly stop thinking that anyone is following you. Have you not gone round the bend on this issue that prompted BigB1 to ask you severally what your point is? I respond to issues as they come. There is a world outside this forum so the moment I leave this forum I am done with everything I see here. I don't expect you to agree with me on anything because I don't agree with others so it is normal. No big deal.
