The average IQ has been going down about 3 points per decade in the US for quite a few decades now. So, yes, the average person in US is getting stupider.

I didn't believe you so I looked it up. FellowPoaler is not lying.

To clarify, this is largely due to demographic changes.

Ok so I guess it is demographics then.

I hadn’t heard this and immediately wonder if that has to do with a change in the population demographics. Terrible news tho.

Thinking for oneself is too difficult for the complacent, and has been worsened by the indoctrination system which tells people what to think rather than teach how to think. It's compounded by unchecked immigration of the lowest common denominator, policies punishing responsible people from raising children, divorce laws, and welfare. Decadence and decay of masses becoming dumber without identity is a dreamy allure to aspiring socialist dictators.

I forget if I talked with you about framing ages ago on poal cast. Regardless I’m a farmer/carpenter I wouldn’t go so far as to say I’m retarded but Definitely not formally educated and computer’s are magic boxes to me. But I have a questioning or perhaps inquiring mind and I can’t figure out why most people don’t seem to. I like the idea of figuring Or atleast trying to figure things out.

There always have been idiots, the internet just amplifies their presence.

Yes it’s interesting, on the surface it seems like a good idea to give everyone a voice but I wonder about crazies finding other crazies and essentially normalizing crazy.

Stupid people haven't gotten stupider. They have only become more plentiful, especially since we've been importing them. It's idiocracy helped along by open boarders.

Ah, r/k selection theory...... More examples of a relevant truth 🤟

All of the these things. Good question. Great point about social media 🤟

Agreed it’s all of these things now obviously we can discuss solutions moving forward. Thanks for the “good question” part I find by asking opinion’s rather than personal stuff more people respond. I myself virtually never respond to personal “ask thing’s”. Socmed is a disaster. Computers never should have been idiot proof.

At least 70% of the population is stupid AF.

[–] • 1 pt

I’m with you at over half of them are.i dunno if 70% is low or high tho. It’s probably pretty close. Cheers bro.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

I used to think half the country were idiots. Now I think it's more like 95%. People get brainwashed and entertained so easily. Zero critical thinking.
