Perhaps there should be a "secret underground members only" section where we can discuss these things?

Logic would suggest that such a section would be secret, if it existed. It would be simple enough to send private messages to trusted members alerting them to the existence of a private invitation-only forum on another website where such discussions could be held.

Naturally, I would say none of this if I knew of such a forum, or had any intention of creating such. And I would not appreciate any messages informing me of the existence of such a forum - if for no other reason than that I am the worst keeper of secrets I have ever known.

The first rule of rationality club is: you do not talk about rationality club.

There could still be a lower level of 'secrecy' where it wont show up on google and you cant actually read it unless you have the minimum karma, but its existence is acknowledged.

It's not where you'd plan to take over the world, but I'd hope it'd be sufficient for talking about race/intelligence issues
