Skin color DOES matter. I've seen countless people here say 'hurrr we dun h8 fo skin coloah, it b dey actionzz'. Bullshit. I've said countless times here how the darker the skin (paper not even done by Rushton or Lynn, and the authors state that the paper gives weight to their argument about cold temperatures=higher IQ), in general, the lower the IQ.
We correlated mean IQ of 129 countries with per capita income, skin color, and winter and summer temperatures, conceptualizing skin color as a multigenerational reflection of climate. The highest correlations were − 0.92 (rho = − 0.91) for skin color, − 0.76 (rho = − 0.76) for mean high winter temperature, − 0.66 (rho = − 0.68) for mean low winter temperature, and 0.63 (rho = 0.74) for real gross domestic product per capita. The correlations with population of country controlled for are almost identical. Our findings provide strong support for the observation of Lynn and of Rushton that persons in colder climates tend to have higher IQs. These findings could also be viewed as congruent with, although not providing unequivocal evidence for, the contention that higher intelligence evolves in colder climates. (Come on, we know the truth) The finding of higher IQ in Eurasians than Africans could also be viewed as congruent with the position of Diamond (1997) that knowledge and resources are transmitted more readily on the Eurasian west–east axis.

Here is a nice graph between GDP and IQ.

As well as Rushton's last paper where he talks about melanin and all of the negative effects with it.
Pigmentation of the hair, skin, cuticle, feather and eye is one of the most salient and variable attributes of vertebrates. In many species, melanin-based coloration is found to be pleiotropically linked to behavior. We review animal studies that have found darker pigmented individuals average higher amounts of aggression and sexual activity than lighter pigmented individuals. We hypothesize that similar relationships between pigmentation, aggression, and sexuality occur in humans. We first review the literature on non-human animals and then review some of the correlates of melanin in people, including aggression and sexual activity. Both within human populations (e.g., siblings), and between populations (e.g., races, nations, states), studies find that darker pigmented people average higher levels of aggression and sexual activity (and also lower IQ). We conceptualize skin color as a multigenerational adaptation to differences in climate over the last 70,000 years as a result of “cold winters theory” and the “Out-of-Africa” model of human origins. We propose life history theory to explain the covariation found between human (and non-human) pigmentation and variables such as birth rate, infant mortality, longevity, rate of HIV/AIDS, and violent crime.

To all of those who say 'we dun h8 fo skin colah, we hate da actionzzz', remember this thread.
Low IQ correlated with anti-social behavior, poverty, crime, illegitimacy and chronic welfare status. Also correlated with lack of abstract thought.
Which brings me to another point. Again, going off of the skin color thing. I had a thought the other day that, for the most part that IQ is what matters THE MOST in life. Think about it. It's true, and of course other factors are involved, but that society full of low IQ people won't have a high quality of life. If niggers had a higher IQ they'd be able to somewhat control their biological urges, because as you can see, lower IQ is correlated with tons of negatives as well as higher IQ being correlated with tons of positives.
Skin color DOES MATTER. Stop saying that it doesn't, it clearly does.

We need to conquer Australia so Mad Max never happens, and the queen demands India back!

The Queen needs to safe keep her homeland before trying to reconquer others.
As far as Mad Max goes... haha. The odds would at least be in our favor.

You see if we reconquer India it will be England, then we can send all the immigrants to India and say we accepted them into England.
