'Dr. Doom' Faber: 'Thank God white people populated America'

(A CNBC spokesperson said it will not book him in the future.)

Yeah, you think?

"And thank God white people populated America, and not the blacks. Otherwise, the US would look like Zimbabwe, which it might look like one day anyway, but at least America enjoyed 200 years in the economic and political sun under a white majority," he wrote.

"I am not a racist, but the reality — no matter how politically incorrect — needs to be spelled out."

Reached for comment via email, Faber did not back away from his statements to CNBC.

"If stating some historical facts makes me a racist, then I suppose that I am a racist. For years, Japanese were condemned because they denied the Nanking massacre," he told CNBC in an email.



The violence sparked a national debate over race and monuments that honor prominent Confederate figures that Faber decided to weigh in on.

Faber called the monuments "statues of honourable people whose only crime was to defend what all societies had done for more than 5,000 years: keep a part of the population enslaved."

Politically Incorrect, but true

Is eye color, hair color, height, weight, strength, or speed heritable?
Is cognitive ability of children predicted by cognitive ability of parents?
Do racial populations have different median IQ's?

Evolution says that populations diverge when environmental pressures are different.
Environmental pressures result in differences of height, weight, strength, speed, eye color, hair color, body fat, ... of geographically different populations
Geographical environment determines the populations, hence the visible differences in skin pigmentation in geographical different populations, which is how races are classified

IQ is heritable, but genes are not the only determination of IQ, there is also a component due to social & cultural factors ( training effect )
the exact ratio of what is due to genes and what is due to social & cultural factors is unknown, but genes seem to be between 60% to 85% the determining factor

IQ tests only measure one type of cognitive ability skill, abstract-reasoning

Ranking of countries by their median IQ

median IQ of sub-Saharan Africa is 70

The Bell Curve

I reject the genetic aspect of it on a large scale. The problem with ghetto black communities today is almost entirely social, cultural and most importantly political. If you look at black communities prior to modern Liberalism, they were by comparison thriving. I'm not going to Google the exact numbers, but something over 90% of black children were born into a married 2 parent home. Black literacy was exponentially higher while violence was exponentially lower. Their contributions to music was unparalleled and positive, unlike the ghetto and/or pop garbage being pumped out today. Blues, Gospel (yes Gospel), classic R&B, rock & roll and even metal all are derived directly from black music. Now it is mainly who's ass they gonna pop a cap in or talking into an autotune box some record executive put in front of them.

You take people out of ghetos such as Chicago and raise them in a traditional small town, they will succeed just like any other American. Liberal policies have created a modern day plantation too many of these people live in and are stuck in. The arguments that this is by design have a lot of merit. The party of slavery is the same party running Democrat controlled cities.

So you're saying one culture is superior to another, and blacks have a superior cognitive ability for music
