But that is a known fact, not racism.

It's a racist fact.

Don't know why you're getting downvoted, this place is usually good at only downvoting spam and crap like that.

I just thought I'd say one more thing here. When you say things like 'It's a racist fact', you're falling into the exact trap racists want to find you in. Either you agree with them on all their horrible ideas about white supremacy, the forced expropriation of all non-whites to their native lands, etc etc, or you have to deny reality.

Those aren't your only choices. You can accept reality without embracing it. If in the real world, Jews have more IQ points on average than other racial groups, then that's just another horrible part of the world we're given. I don't like it, I wish it weren't so, and it certainly doesn't make me feel any different towards my fellow man than I otherwise would, but it's the truth. The horrible truth that we have to accept because whether or not I, you, or anyone else feels it's racist doesn't change shit about the actual facts.

We can't control reality, but we can certainly control how we react to it. Don't let anyone confuse you away from that.

Why?
The diversity of the human species is one of its greatest strengths. I'm a big fan personally.
The world would be a boring place if we were all the same.

Recognizing that people are different, and that some are better/worse at some things does not imply a hatred of 'others'.
I feel people are different, and that's ok.

I gave him one on that comment. I don't know where the others came from.
He earned it because it was not a genuine attempt at conversation or debate. It was an intentional attempt to shutdown and discredit.

Also, have a look at his(or most others) up/down ratio compared to mine before thinking I'm the bad-guy.
I don't downvote for disagreement. But I do downvote misinformation, malice, and spam. Mostly spam.

Because the same set of research can also be cited to show that some groups of people are not merely 'worse at some things', but that some are actually lacking in intelligence to the same extent as mentally handicapped people, and it may easily be a factor (not the entirety of the cause mind you) of the conditions of the people living in those places. When something causes or contributes to human suffering, I tend not to have a positive opinion on that thing.
