I don't know, I think we are all smart. Every single one of us. There are a few exceptions, but nearly all human beings on this planet are truly "smart" compared to all other known, non-human beings.
Unless this is one of those "everything's weird and 'normal' is particularly weird" arguments.
If so I agree that "everything's stupid and therefore it's especially stupid to think anything could be 'smart'"

This is like telling someone in poverty "well you're actually in the top 1% of worldwide income, and the top 0.1% of all-time worldwide income, so things are pretty great!" It's true, but it's a useless thing to say.
