Fleas in a Jar



Scientific experiment done on fleas were they were put in a glass jar without a lid, the fleas were able to jump out easily.

However putting a lid on it for just 3 day, then removing the lid produced interesting results.

The fleas were constrained by a 'invisible' barrier and no longer attempted an escape, this mental barrier carried over into the next generations.

However, the introduction of a new flea into the jar that was not bound by those same mental 'constraints', led to the freedom of all.




What can we as Somali's learn from this?

there is no equivalence, a better equivalence would be every time a flea tries to escape the jar the other fleas hold him down.

If the jar is Somalia and the fleas are Somalis, they’re escaping the jar everyday at great risk.

Unfortunately, IQ is not imposed. It has environmental and genetic impositions. It can be determined by metrics such as developmental nutrition of children and fetal health, which is why I think diasporans must be smarter than the population in Somalia. And yet, collectively, Somalis in the West are a mixed bag at best, with a trend towards the negative end.

Whats your evidence for this?

If they had 68 IQ they'd never get out.

They'd probably divide themselves and start making clans of each other :siilaanyolaugh:
68 IQ derived by Richard Lynn and his research team, came from the IQ results of Kenyan Somalis (ogadenis), the same people who have a reputation in Somalia of not being the brightest.

The real redpill is that Somalia is colonial project designed to lump all tribes together who differ greatly in terms of intelligence, and the end result is this clusterfuck we call a country.

You make it sound like there's Somali clans with 300 IQ :siilaanyosmile:

Well it is true that some tribes are kinda smarter then others. Check their region+what is holding them back+how long was there peace+where are they located= our iq test result

Don’t kill us. :dead:

If the tribes make up an ethnicity, and you accept 1 tribe as having 68 IQ, how much of a leg up can the others possibly have?

1. Never said Ogadens have 68 IQ, that just happens to be the result of that particular group of somali kenyans that were tested. Could be higher

2. I do think different tribes have different averages. Hardly controversial thing to say considering different somali groups were subject to different evolutionary pressures.

Thats just my theory, don't like the notion that all somalis are equal since it's self evidently not true
