Really, IQ is subjective based on the test you were taking. The San Bushmen are extremely skilled hunters, yet score 60-70 on conventional IQ tests.

That's what I say whenever someone uses IQ scores as an excuse for racism. If this post was not made with those intentions, sorry, but at least you learned something.
Have you hunted? I do. It’s a learned task. That’s all it is. What ground-breaking hunting process have they come up with that is so much better than modem technology and practices? You’re intentionally conflating this task with critical thinking, pattern recognition, deductive reasoning, and thought out intuitive understanding.
Those two things (IQ) and a task will never, ever, ever be the same, and you know it. Frankly I’m surprised you didn’t mention sport, where similar unique tasks can be achieved with hard work and innate ability. But the ability to throw a ball and finishing complex mathematical equations aren’t the same. As seen every day, you don’t have to be smart to be athletic.
So, your argument is invalid. IQ has been proven to be the basis for many, many successes. And lack of it, the basis for many, many failures. It is literally one of the requirements for a properly functioning society. Why White people (and Asian) developed higher IQ than other races is well documented, and I know you are aware of these things. The fact remains that IQ is extremely important. Cold and meat eating encouraged the cultivation of higher IQ. Delaying gratification also did.
Finally, because you went there, racism is a made up word. Calling someone a racist is no longer the insult you think it is. You implied that linking IQ to a higher life was racist. It’s not, it’s reality.
Yeah, you and I both know what arguments (those logical and the irrational ones) will happen next between you and I. I won’t respond, so type what you want. Just know that enough people see your “IQ is racist” trope, and not only understand what it is, but are tired of it. Crying “racist” doesn’t do what it used to anymore.
Research why IQ levels seem to be higher in extremely cold areas... Also affects saving for rainy days attitudes.
