James Watson has also been disgraced in the academic world and removed from his academic positions for his views on women and people of color. His views are offensive, but also not backed by solid science.
Given his heterodox and inaccurate views, I'm not much interested in his views on other topics, nor convinced his opinion should hold much weight.
Luckily the rest of the article is just a survey of research having nothing to do with Watson.

Being on a moral high ground is not interesting or scientific. Even Evolutionist views are offensive to a subset of humanity. Racial targeted medicine is offensive to a subset of humanity.

Do you have a source for these strong claims? I'm curious to learn more.
