Note I didn't ask, "is intelligence heritable". Because I already know that it's heritable. The only question is to what degree.
Personally I believe that intelligence has an overwhelming biological basis. In other words, how smart you are is largely determined by your genes. Your parents could try to enrich your environment as you grew up, but it won't make you smarter. It will only make you more knowledgeable, or more worldly, or better at taking tests. However your actual intelligence won't become higher to any noticeable degree.
What follows from this is that there are some people who are naturally stupid. And it's because their genes bestow lower than average level of intelligence on them. And if these people somehow manage to procreate and pass on their genes despite their stupidity, then you will have kids who are stupid too. And when you do this for enough generations, and I mean many, many, many generations, then you will wind up with a stupid human population group.
And races are population groups. So, what does this tell us?
Nothing against you but all I read is a huge pile of copium. If I were you I'd concentrate on how to become more knowledgable and/or improving your current living conditions. By clutching at straw arguments from race theory reaching far in 18th century to achieve a moral sense of superiority, nothing is going to change in your actual life
Start doing sports, meet real people, read books.
