The Left is Disintegrating

I have always considered myself to be to the left of the political spectrum, but their absolute refusal to accept that nature plays at least as important a role as nurture is leading them into a very deep hole:

A certain population in Bosnia is found to be the tallest in the world, likely for genetic reasons… Everyone can talk about between-populations genetic variation in height as if it’s so obvious it doesn’t even need defending, and then as soon as someone mentions between-populations genetic variation in cognitive abilities, it’s “Haven’t you heard? Scientists proved race is a social construct!”
