  Steve Sailer Sucks - Racism, Interracial Marriage, Lies
Steve Sailer and his predominantly white male right-wing audience are facing the harsh reality that the white male audience isn't reproducing adequately enough.
Steve Sailer's career as a scientific racist is going downhill, as proven by the overwhelming negative responses he rightfully receives every time he steps out of his safety zone of human biodiversity pseudo-scientific racists.
Steve Sailer, who likes to fool his audience that he is an expert on the human races and relations, particularly likes to comment on events dealing with racial tension.

  Steve Sailer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sailer is the founder and president of the Human Biodiversity Institute (1999), which runs a discussion group for "a mix of experts from across the scientific, intellectual, and political spectrums." The webpage of the Human Biodiversity Institute describes it as "an educational and scientific not-for-profit organization" rather than a research institute.
Sailer has described his starting point in analyzing political policies as being concerned with the greatest good for U.S. citizens, as opposed to being concerned with the greatest good for one's "identity group." He refers to this as a "citizenist" stance.
Sailer argues the racism criticism isn't a factual or logical refutation of his arguments, but is rather an emotive response to the transgression of taboo.

 Mona Charen summarizes Steve Sailer on why abortion didn't cut crime
Steve Sailer makes an extremely persuasive case in the online magazine Slate (the liveliest site on the Internet) that the study is quite flawed.
According to FBI statistics, the murder rate for 1993's crop of 14- to 17-year-olds (who were born in the freely available abortion years of 1975 to 1979) was 3.6 times that of the children born between 1966 and 1970 (pre-Roe).
The 800-pound gorilla that Levitt and Donohue ignore, Sailer insists, is the crack epidemic that transformed urban neighborhoods in the 1980s.

 Sailer’s attempt to combine race realism with liberalism
My impression from Steve Sailer’s various writings on “citizenism” is that his race realism has not divorced him from liberalism, in that he still desires that Americans should take care of the minority underclass.
My experience is that liberals instinctively recoil from any hint of race realism (which leads inexorably to treating groups differently as Steve Sailer concedes), because they realize how devastating it is to their ideals of true equality, and they love their ideals far more than truth.
Perhaps Steve Sailer’s audience is the declining numbers of put-upon white conservatives who still highly value American citizenship and feel devoted to helping other Americans no matter how awful they may behave.

 ParaPundit: Steve Sailer On The Iraq Partition Argument
Steve Sailer has written an essay that reviews the arguments for partitioning Iraq.
Steve points out that Leslie Gelb, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, has come out in favor of partition (same article here).
But, as Steve points out, it is not like anyone has a better idea on how to make Iraq governable by anyone short of a brutal repressive dictator.

 Pharyngula::In which Steve Sailer makes me ill (not that that is anything new)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Roger Ailes thinks we should be grateful that that hack NYT columnist John Tierney hasn't called on Steve Sailer to explain the nightmare in New Orleans.
It certainly is brave of Sailer to point out that fl people are so childlike—I understand they are also prone to drapetomania and rascality, and can't survive without the guidance of noble white people.
Some idiots like Steve Sailer want to blame the victims, others want to blame racists, Bush, the New Orleans mayor, the Easter Bunny, etc. The reality is that 1.62 million victims, instead of 1.8 million, wouldn't have done jack to stop the accusations.

 Blottered: Is Your Local Abortionist the New Crime Fighting Superhero?
In a series of pieces on his website, the incredibly prolific Steve Sailer has leveled a devastating critique of Levitt's theory.
Steve Sailor chose to critique the dumbed-down layman's version of Levitt's theory, and then complain that it's "slap-dash." Levitt's approach is more rigorous in his academic journal presentations than in his best-seller 'economics for the masses and written by some other dude' version.
Sam, I don't think it's unfair for Sailer to take on a theory put forth in a prominent and popular book on the terms on which it is presented.

 Steve Sailer on transsexualism
Sailer is a conservative businessman who runs the Human Biodiversity Institute.
Steve Sailer's Roster of Human Biodiversity Discussion Group links many of the usual suspects back to before Bailey had published his materials on gender variance online in 2000.
Steve was a fellow at the conservative Hudson Institute.

 RichardPoe.com - Single Blog Entry   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The popular Vdare.com columnist has announced to the world that he is going to write an article that will almost certainly earn him the undying hatred of one or more of the ideological, ethnic and racial power blocs currently jockeying for warlordship over the broken pieces of our disintegrating republic.
[Sailer’s] favored solution to the "race problem" is pure evil: racial intermarriage so extensive that distinct races cease to exist.
Had Sailer written these words for, let’s say, The New York Times, he would have earned nothing but praise, and this anonymous letter would have been tossed in the trash by some office intern.

 gladwell.com: Imagine My Surprise...
Sailer is opposed to libertarianism and he was using this sad fact to point out certain problems with libertarian theory.
Sailer's comments about Gladwell's salary and hair were both made in a relevant context: the salary thing was a commentary on how much wealthier you get by telling people cool-sounding or reassuring things that aren't quite true (Gladwell, in Sailer's view) than you do by telling the unvarnished truth (the relatively poor Sailer).
Sailer recently opened his blog archive to comments, which I view as a small, but positive step that is the direct result of the open discourse allowed on this blog.

Sailer is not a credentialled economist, but he is a clear writer, intelligent, honest, with a clear committment to the well-being of all Americans of all races, genders, and social classes.
Steve Sailer mistakenly believes the purpose of this blog is to foster conversation and debate about issues related to Freakonomics.
Sailer is in denial because it politically correct (appeal to emotion) to be in denial not because he intellectually disagrees.

 Liberteaser: Steve Sailer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Steve Sailer is the bigoted maroon who runs iSteve.com and the sinisterly named Human Biodiversity Institute.
Now to get from "Steve Nash wins the MVP" to "NBA players to day are selfish crack-babies" is indeed quite a stretch...umm, particularly considering he uses only one data point.
Furthermore, how can he not assume the opposite take on this news--that awarding the MVP to Nash, as opposed to Shaq, is a reflection of the decline in white basketball and that the writers were ready to vote for a white guy as soon as they had a chance, knowing the rarity of such situations.

 Media Matters - NBC offered far-right columnist Steve Sailer a platform to attack Hollywood   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Sailer additionally describes himself on his website as "founder of the Human Biodiversity Institute," which claims that it "promotes the study of biological differences among humans and their impact on society"; the SPLC has described the institute as a "neo-eugenics outfit."
He is also not the same person as Steve Sailer, and just because their articles appeared at the same site does not mean they share the same views.
In fact Sailer is the exact opposite of a “white” nationalist, he is a citizenist, which is to say he wants to support African Americans interests against Hispanic, Asian and white immigrants.

 Matthew Yglesias: Money Can't Buy Me Good Books
Sailer and his intended audience know exactly what he means, as Jason says.
The far more interesting bit of the Sailer post is the insistence that conservatives are missing out on the "Darwinian analysis of human behavior," which presumably means stuff like his excellent "fl people are genetically superior in trash-talking" thesis.
But Sailer goes on to discuss Africa as some single culture place where people don't value families like people in Western Europe did, and that is why African AMericans (meaning the descendents of slaves I assume) outside the South have bad family practices.

 Bailey's affiliations and ideological associations. PART-II: Investigative files on key HBDG members   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Steve Sailer, a principal contributor to VDARE, is one of Pinker's close buddies and admirers.
Steve Sailer is the organizer of the Human Biodiversity Group and the Human Biodiversity Institute, and is a prominent member/author of VDARE - an anti-immigration group interested in protecting the 'purity of the gene pool in the US'.
Sailer is a prolific writer of essays and neoconservative propaganda on that topic, and has long exploited the works of racial-profiling scientists and pundits such as Brand, Cochran, Entine, Miller, Murray, Rushton, etc., to justify his positions.

 Niche achievement versus dispersed failure — Steve Sailer (and me) on race relations | Samizdata.net
Steve Sailer is a name I hear now and again, every few weeks, but I know very little about the guy.
Someone commented on this, which I wrote last night (about men wearing their shirts outside their trousers), to the effect that Sailer had something to say about this, about a week ago, that was relevant.
Sailer's point is that academic racial preference policies undermine (to name but one of their many drawbacks) this benign process, by over-dispersing the group supposedly being helped.

 Gene Expression: The Tao of Steve
I suppose I should be grateful to Steve for routing me to Gene Expression and offering me the opportunity to enrich my mind with Razib's writings as well as his.
Steve's website was a bit of an epiphany for me as well.
Steve had detailed and researched, quite meticulously, his views on biodiversity and provided empirical evidence and references for his views.

 Gene Expression: There are no utopias
Steve Sailer cautions against utopian thinking by pundits who wish the whole "Race Problem" would just go away....
steve can speak for himself-but i suspect that difference in capital between group A & B in terms of "the g factor" might mean that interracial offspring will not serve as a panacea.
Perhaps Sailer's usual support for interracial marriage is merely "politically correct squid ink" similar to Cavalli-Sforza's insistence that race does not exist.

 Academic Racists Make Mainstream Inroads
As Steve Sailer pointed out in the American Conservative, George Bush carried the 19 states with the highest white fertility rates, and 25 of the top 26.
On the rare occasion Sailer gives race a rest, it’s usually to make some other mock-Darwinian argument, as when he ruled out the possibility of a gay gene, suggesting instead that homosexuality is a disease, possibly caused by a germ (VDare.com, 8/17/03): ''An infectious disease itself could cause homosexuality.
A lucid writer with an accessible style, Sailer is a smooth propagandist operating in a community of increasingly sophisticated nativists and racists.

She thinks I'm Steve Sailer who among other things is a paid movie reviewer.
And I also should point out that both Sailer and Entine believe that race is a true biological category--that it matters and brings about provable results when none of that has ever been proven.
Sailer claims to be 6'4" and has said that a little Chinese guy named Bill Lee has been hounding him over the issue of Asian men's heights and interracial marriage.

Steve Sailer is presently the Film Critic at The American Conservative and contributes regularly to their Arts and Letters section.
He is also one of the main reasons why this particular reader subscribed to their magazine as I regard its analysis of social issues to be excellent.
Sailer has his own website where he has established an archive of essays and columns which one should take the time to peruse.

I punted on trying to answer all his statistical arguments, partly because some were too abstruse for me, partly because I knew the readers would rather hear why, statistics aside, Levitt's common sensical ideal would or wouldn't work in reality.
----------------------- To: Steve Sailer From: Steven Levitt Subject: Let's test your alternative hypothesis It is so refreshing to have someone challenge our study based on the facts instead of the knee-jerk reactions I have been hearing and reading about in the press the last few weeks.
The set of facts that you offer are indeed challenging to our theory: the late eighties and early nineties were periods of high inner city youth homicide, fueled by the crack epidemic, declining juvenile punishment, and the increased availability of handguns to kids.

He is bravely challenging the orthodoxy of race and innate biological differences issues and I’m sure he is under constant attack by left-wing liberals and right-wing liberals.

I said in the post that started this exchange that Steve Sailer and his ilk were racists, and having had to further self-educate on him and them in the course of this contretemps has only confirmed my conviction that this is indeed the case.
As far as the intelligence issue, neither Sailer nor any other paleocon is in favor of denying anyone their rights on that basis.
And finally Sailer reveals much with this snide, funny-funny-ha-ha quip implying that somehow the "dark brown computer programmers from Bangalore" are somehow surprising because of their (implied) superiority over dark brown bad/stupid/useless Africans or Melanesians.

 A Mixed Blog: Steve Sailer's "Race" Agenda   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
This blog has changed to a new software provider, the active archives are now located here.
Steve Sailer has dedicated himself to proving that "race" really exists.
Sometimes he will sound quite reasonable in his critiques of political correctness, but his attack on George Will for accepting the "whiteness" and free will of "Coleman Silk" in "The Human Stain" shows that Sailer is really a racist at heart.

 The Liberal Avenger: Michelle Malkin Defends White Supremacist
He has written a number of articles using the table as supporting data, for example, one comparing the "people of India" with those of China.
The average IQ in China (almost exclusively light-colored Han Chinese, Sailer notes), is 100 while that of the "small and dark" Indians with African ancestors is only 81.
This support from Malkin for Sailer (and her support for VDARE.COM, which is a clearinghouse for pseudo-scientific racist claptrap), comes as no surprise to those of us who have been watching her for some time.
