    It turns out he was a social science activist attending a top 5 university, very good at math though, and he thinks he might get a Rhodes scholarship. He was high IQ. And high status seeking.

    Does this guy think that IQ is something that is static and not based ones material condition?

      The fundamental basis of most LWers world view is biological determinism based on IQ, which is of course usually based on race.
