О кружке Сейлера HBI (Human Biodiversity Institute) в 2003:

The Institute's main activity appears to be an "invitation-only" online discussion list for "a small, elite and eclectic mix of experts."
According to a list posted on HBI's Web site until last summer, this "elite" includes:
- Jean-Phillippe Rushton, a prominent researcher on black genetic inferiority who is president of a pro-eugenics hate group, the Pioneer Fund;
- Charles Murray, co-author of The Bell Curve, which purported to show black and Latino intellectual inferiority;
- Kevin MacDonald, a professor at California State University at Long Beach who has written several books about supposed Jewish strategies to subvert "Euro-American" culture; and
- Gregory Cochrane, a physicist who has suggested the existence of a genetic "gay germ."
These ideas about race and sex have not been limited to the world of academia. The HBI also includes several right-wing journalists who help popularize their theories - and promote their books.
The most prominent cheerleader for Bailey and the other HBI researchers is the man who started the HBI: Steve Sailer, a United Press International reporter and frequent contributor to the anti-immigration Web site, VDARE.com.
Like Bailey, Sailer refused to respond to questions, telling the Intelligence Report "tough noogies." Also like Bailey, he has pushed the idea that there's a genetic basis for homosexuality - making it a "disease" that could eventually be eradicated.

В 2003 в кружке Сейлера было около 150 человек. Сообщество трансгендеров обратило на него внимание после того, как один участник кружка, Майкл Бейли, опубликовал трансфобную книжку “The Man Who Would Be Queen: The Science of Gender-Bending and Transsexualism”, а другие участники, включая Стивена Пинкера, написали на неё положительные отзывы https://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/LynnsReviewOfBaileysBook.html

Разиб Хан обеспокоился расследованием трансгендеров и призвал к анонимности и конспирации:

“To return to our main topic - in the best tradition of the Spanish Inquisition, we are probably going to see an extensive smear campaign directed against Michael Bailey and all other non pseudonymous members of the list, including Steven Pinker. The people who're running this particular investigation are mainly transsexuals (and are thus politically marginal), but the far larger group of "antiracists" who want to use Nazi smears on guys like Pinker will love the fact that Pinker is on the same list as "the devil himself", Charles Murray. Bet on it - the HBDG will be used like the Pioneer Fund to smear people with guilt-by-association.
This whole imbroglio is a good lesson for us. It's easy to become complacent over here at Gene Expression or at HBDG, but anonymity is necessary in today's political climate.”

Jean-Phillippe Rushton, a prominent researcher on black genetic inferiority who is president of a pro-eugenics hate group, the Pioneer Fund;

Канадский психолог Раштон из кружка Сейлера финансировался Pioneer Fund, а с 2002 и до своей смерти в 2012 возглавлял этот фонд.

Rushton, who has been investigated for allegedly violating Canadian hate-speech laws, had been showered with Pioneer money before he assumed the group’s top post in 2002. For example, tax records from 2000 show that his institute received $473,835 - 73% of that year’s grants. By 2009, the fund was giving about $100,000 annually to Rushton through his university. As of 2009, the fund still had some $2 million to disburse, but its donor base had fallen to one man, Walter Kistler, an aged aeronautics pioneer.

За счёт фонда он издал свою научно-расистскую книжку и бесплатно рассылал ее по всем университетам.



Анатолию Карлину эта книжка открыла глаза.

“When I read it sometime around I was already somewhat “redpilled” on this issue, but this book raised my confidence in the HBD view of reality from “likely” to “almost certain.”
There are several other good essentially “HBD” books - The 10,000 Year Explosion by Cochran and Harpending, or Wade’s A Troublesome Inheritance for those hesitating about… wading into this subject, but this is the book I read first so as it’s the most influential so far as I’m concerned.”

В 2020 факультет, где работал Раштон, официально открестился от него.

Although Rushton published on a variety of topics in the field of personality and individual differences, much of his research was racist, and attempted to find differences in intelligence between racialized groups and to explain them as caused by genetic differences between races.
Although Rushton ceased teaching for the Department of Psychology in the early 1990s, he continued to conduct racist and flawed studies, sometimes without appropriate ethics approval for two more decades. There are other ethical concerns surrounding Rushton’s research. In particular, much of this research was supported by the Pioneer Fund, a foundation formed in 1937 to promote eugenicist and racist goals. The fund was headed by Rushton himself for many years (2002-2012). Indeed, Rushton was the largest recipient of Pioneer Fund grants at the time of his death. Further, he directed funding from this foundation to editors of some of the journals in which he published. Rushton also created an offshore private promotional organization called the Charles Darwin Institute to promote his writings.
In addition to ethical concerns about the nature and funding of his research, Rushton’s work is deeply flawed from a scientific standpoint. Crucially, Rushton’s works linking race and intelligence are based on an incorrect assumption that fuels systemic racism, the notion that racialized groups are concordant with patterns of human ancestry and genetic population structure. This idea is rejected by analysis of the human genome: racialized groups are not distinct genetic populations. What Rushton described as “races” are socially created categories that do not reflect patterns of human inheritance or genetic population structure. <…>
Despite its deeply flawed assumptions and methodologies, Rushton’s work and other so-called “race science” (currently under the pseudonym of “race realism”) continues to be misused by white supremacists and promoted by eugenic organizations. Thus, Rushton’s legacy shows that the impact of flawed science lingers on, even after qualified scholars have condemned its scientific integrity.
