- civilitty 3y agoThe recruitment pipeline for enlisted personnel is a bit different from officers, which requires a college degree.
- webmaven 3y agoPlease don't conflate formal education with intelligence.
- smeej 3y agoThey don't want the brightest.
- mensetmanusman 3y agoThe ‘brightest’ can’t even figure out how to reproduce above replacement levels…
- namaria 3y agoThis idiocracy meme is part of the distraction. Proletariat literally means "breeders". The elites very much know they need to keep the number of heirs limited while expanding the base of exploitable populace.
- infamouscow 3y agoBrightest by what measure? It seems like you're placing a lot of weight on the kind of intelligence that favors office work and ignoring all of the artists, builders, monks, healers and leaders whose names fill history books. Brightest by your measure rarely get mentioned. Not to say historical impact is the most valuable metric, but it begs the question of what is your measure of brightness good for?
- mock-possum 3y agoBrightest by virtue of thinking for themselves. The military is famously opposed to that sort of thing.
- torstenvl 3y agoI'm sorry if that was your experience in the military, but it emphatically isn't what I've experienced, and is the extreme exception to what I've seen others experience.

- soligern 3y agoI’m sure men of all intellectual abilities are driven relatively equally by their cock.

- chillbill 3y agoSwayed maybe, but definitely not controlled equally.
- HKH2 3y agoCan someone saying or doing something infuriatingly stupid make no difference to how sexually attractive they are?
- johnnyanmac 3y agoIn reality, no. If you're attractive you and your actions will be perceived differently, and you can do a surprising amount of things in generak if you look like you fit in (attractive or not, but usually being attractive helps). There are hundreds of case studies of this over the decades.
- soligern 3y agoSexually attractive, no. But if someone is considering a long term prospect/wife then absolutely.
