Intelligent people are more capable, and so more capable of getting it very wrong.

2017-12-01 14:24:26 UTC  

There are inbuilt impulses and biases making it so that some patterns are more obvious to us than others, yes.

2017-12-01 14:24:51 UTC  

obviously, we see the world in the image of Man.

2017-12-01 14:25:26 UTC  

a friendly retard is better than a spiteful asshole 105 IQ person who thinks he's the best

2017-12-01 14:25:28 UTC  

that's all I'll give you

2017-12-01 14:25:53 UTC  

I want to be given more.

2017-12-01 14:26:25 UTC  

what about a person who is 106 and is objectively a handsome sage operating under the moniker vigilance? @Hagel

2017-12-01 14:26:32 UTC  

The world is in the state it's in largely due to intelligent people.

2017-12-01 14:26:43 UTC  

where would such a person rank in your schema

2017-12-01 14:26:51 UTC  

were he to exist?

2017-12-01 14:27:10 UTC  

He meant 150

2017-12-01 14:27:13 UTC  

105 is average

2017-12-01 14:28:55 UTC  

why don't we let him speak for himself nesquick

2017-12-01 14:29:31 UTC  

💋

2017-12-01 14:31:34 UTC  

Indeed

2017-12-01 14:32:34 UTC  

Fine I'm 160

2017-12-01 14:32:40 UTC  

I was being modest obviously

2017-12-01 14:32:52 UTC  

I am convinced that the test you took is not complete

2017-12-01 14:33:03 UTC  

I almost have scientific proof for it

2017-12-01 14:33:12 UTC  

IQ itself is not complete, but that test is not complete for IQ

2017-12-01 14:38:45 UTC  

A IQ test? I need to make one...

2017-12-01 14:39:28 UTC  

@Nester EITHER THAT, OR INSIGHT IS WHAT WE SEE WITH HIGH INTELLIGENCE

2017-12-01 14:39:42 UTC  

WHERE UNWARRANTED ARROGANCE IS WHAT OCCURS WITH MIDDLE-HIGH INTELLIGENCE

2017-12-01 14:39:46 UTC  

@Hagel which test

2017-12-01 14:40:23 UTC  

@Hagel WE SHOULD ALSO CONSIDER THE ECOSYSTEM OF INTELLIGENCES

2017-12-01 14:40:38 UTC  

FRIENDLY, WELL-MEANING RETARDS ARE THOSE WHO EMPOWER THE CLEVER BUT NOT INTELLIGENT (C.B.N.I.)

2017-12-01 14:40:57 UTC  

@diversity_is_racism I humbly challenge thee to a game of online chess. Battle of wits and winos. Actually chess is boring.

2017-12-01 14:41:14 UTC  

Is IQ so important?

2017-12-01 14:42:29 UTC  

It's a question of value. What faculties do we think are most important in humans?

2017-12-01 14:44:37 UTC  

The abilities?

2017-12-01 14:45:10 UTC  

Mental or otherwise

2017-12-01 14:45:35 UTC  

Practical and mental

2017-12-01 14:46:09 UTC  

It also depends on the education you have and other factors

2017-12-01 14:46:11 UTC  

Right. Really smart but can't make an omelette

2017-12-01 14:46:30 UTC  
2017-12-01 14:46:46 UTC  

Intelligence to me is your aptitude for abstract manipulation.

2017-12-01 14:47:39 UTC  

Insight is when the product of your manipulations tell you something new about reality. And so it has to be realistically principled and directed.

2017-12-01 14:48:03 UTC  

Isn't that reflection

2017-12-01 14:48:17 UTC  

If you're going to define cleverness as what I've defined intelligence as, I'm fine with that.

2017-12-01 14:48:46 UTC  

Abstraction is one thing. Reflection is the next, really.

2017-12-01 14:49:19 UTC  

And intelligence is a cleverness tending to produce insight.
