I don't think you get into "race realism" until you argue that certain races are "biologically deficient" or something. There's nothing far right about thinking that human behavior is dictated by biology unless you start supplementing it with pseudo-scientific neo-Nazi arguments.

Science isn’t political.

Well

Scientists and governments have political agendas but if the findings withstand scrutiny it doesn’t matter if they make us uncomfortable.

Since the assumption that there cannot be any racial predisposition toward behavior or intelligence is so taboo to challenge the hypothesis remains essentially untested.

What it boils down to is you either understand consciousness is chemical or you don’t.
