Comment on Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?

On the other hand I am pretty confident I am not an idiot, and if IQ tests done when I was 8 count I know I’m not. That does not mean I don’t regularly do something wrong, or learn something completely obvious. I’m sure that in those situations somebody else wonders how I lived this long.

They don’t, unless you’re currently 9.

See, the fact you think the IQ tests matters in any way means your uniformed about it, which comes back to the topic at hand.

IQ tests are bullshit; it’s been proven many times.

Yet you were told they weren’t. And that informed how you think.

I could call you stupid for bringing up an IQ test.

Or I could accept that people not having all the knowledge in the world is just part of being human, and that there are many things you know that I probably don’t.
