Boy I sure wish I had a 6 hr video explaining the incredibly racist origins of the Bell curve which has no value at all scientifically speaking, perhaps even by a Liverpudlian narrator of sorts
a bell curve is just a normal distribution lol
do you mean the BOOK "The Bell Curve"? the frenology book? yeah i think most of us here get that frenology is racist
do you mean the racist origins behind IQ?
I meant this video
You might need to elaborate. I'm confused at the Bell curve (which is a visual representation of the normal distribution) not having any value at all.
The Central Limit Theorem guarantees that the normal distribution will show up all over the place. To say that it has no value scientifically is simply false.
i am making a joke about the youtuber skullboi shaun and his very longform essay methodology, especially this video on the bell curve book
