So I AM smarter than my kid.
Been tellin’ him that.
Damn Global Warming!...................
The welfare states across the West advantage the low IQ types, those who would never be able to reproduce successfully in a more harsh environment.
This is the R-K system at work.
Obtaining higher IQs is difficult. It takes centuries of development. It is analogous to decreasing entropy.
Obtaining lower IQs is easy - its like increasing entropy.
William Shockley was right.
The average IQ of the third world like Mexico is 85. We are importing stupidity.
Who said you could post a picture of me!
*****With the advent of computers and instant access to the internet, people have no need to memorize anything, or use reasoning to solve a problem. They can simply look it up.
Need to perform a simple calculation? People dont do math in their heads anymore. They whip out the calculator on their iPhone to split a restaurant bill two ways or arrive at the final price in a 25% off sale.*****
Precisely!!!! Best comment ever!!!!
Just stop having sex. Well, the men anyway.
IDIOCRACY !!!!
>>meaning the effect likely isn’t due to shifting demographic factors as some have suggested, such as the dysgenic accumulation of disadvantageous genes across areas of society.
talk about periphrastics... that’s a LONG way to go just to claim that it isn’t only due to the Moslem invasion.
CLONING OF THE AMERICAN MIND by BK Eakman (Huntington House Publishers, 1998)
I'd like to see the demographics breakdown of these "Norwegian men". I suspect Kalergi's Mob has changed the pool of test subjects in recent years.
“7 fewer IQ score points per generation”
The decrease in Flynn study is only 2 IQ points over one generation which seems more credible.
So the Norwegian study is clearly an aberration and needs serious replication efforts before drawing any conclusion.
Someone here once called me an idiot. I said I had 170 IQ, hardly an idiot. His response: You’re still an idiot.
“Go away....’Batin’!”
He should have called you a liar.
Why? That’s not a lie.
I have no problem with calculators. And certainly a calculator does not qualify as AI.
On the flip side, I think we assume that all technology is benign and useful. Much of it is, but there is a cost. We don’t always realize that cost.
Wait....what?
You can only allow the losers from failed nations into a country for so long before that country also becomes a failed nation.
Couple that with skewls that haven’t encouraged critical thinking and problem solving for decades and the results are exactly what socialists want.
In the US, a portion of the drop can be attributed to legal and illegal migration. Selection by lottery bypasses prior screening while illegal migration, particularly from Latin American countries, is undertaken by those with lower IQs.
