With a global average IQ hovering around 80, it really terrifies me what the future has in store given how manipulable the masses are via social media. The recent Phillipines presidential election is a perfect example. There's a sort of cutoff I've noticed around 85-90 IQ where at or below that, people can simply be spoon-fed whatever form of reality you wish for them to accept. The truth no longer matters when someone's entire reality is shaped by 30 second TikTok videos that are actually just performances masquerading as "POV real life". All of those absurd fake videos we see and laugh at only exist because they work.
- pessimizer 4y agoColonial powers (not just the US) pour cash and military support into dictators supported by dumb nationalists, with the overt intention of helping them marginalize or exterminate their intelligent populations. And I don't mean that it happens inadvertently, I mean that we actively search for the effective influencers within rising movements happening in countries that we're draining the natural resources from through friendly dictators, and we inform those dictators who we also arm. We're actually breeding for stupidity.
- lvass 4y agoThis is a very extraordinary claim and should have really strong evidence. At least I'd want to know exactly what is being done to exterminate some groups. The latest example I know of is Stalin's food redirections. Or are you talking of mass migrations and "replacement genocide"?
