Everyone who supports Russia is a fascist.

Russia's first failure was being a Fascist state that relies on Nazis for their openly imperialist agenda.

Your biggest failure is being a fascist that doesn't even realize it.

Imagine liking a queerphobic dictatorship.

Russia is a fascist state. You are a fascist for supporting it.

This exactly. Intelligence being heritable does not imply that any one particular population is more intelligent on average than another.

“intelligence” is a pretty nebulous term to begin with

This is also accurate, but I'm glossing over that because it's late and that fact is only tangentially relevant to the question.

Thank you very much!

Intelligence has a genetic component. Every single test we have that attempts to measure intelligence that we've checked for heritability shows that intelligence likely has a generic component. Furthermore, we know that some species are more intelligent than others. Given the demonstrable existence of Darwinian evolution, this implies that some populations of a species are more or less intelligent than another because that's a requirement for a speciation event that results in a species that's more intelligent than its cousin species.

Anyone who says otherwise is likely allowing their ideology to cloud their judgement.

I just looked, and I think it'd be more accurate to call it a Neo-Bolshevik cesspit.
