which is a big problem

2018-07-28 22:20:39 UTC  

i'm not in favor of hurting anybody

2018-07-28 22:20:50 UTC  

but recognizing problems is the first step

2018-07-28 22:26:36 UTC  

I'm not sure higher IQ is always a good thing.

2018-07-28 22:26:40 UTC  

Idk.

2018-07-28 22:27:26 UTC  

population-wise or on an individual level?

2018-07-28 22:27:33 UTC  

Um.

2018-07-28 22:27:34 UTC  

Idk.

2018-07-28 22:28:03 UTC  

Like people do really shitty things in the name of science and discovery, which ig is associated with higher iq

2018-07-28 22:28:31 UTC  

lmao what

2018-07-28 22:28:37 UTC  

Sometimes ppl complicate shit. Or steal. Or hatch bad ideas just cuz they can think them up.

2018-07-28 22:28:47 UTC  

that's not because of high iq

2018-07-28 22:29:15 UTC  

Do you though?

2018-07-28 22:29:21 UTC  

Like.

2018-07-28 22:29:28 UTC  

Ah nevermind. It's a balance thing though.

2018-07-28 22:29:32 UTC  

not rly

2018-07-28 22:29:39 UTC  

I guess this is a discussion on the nature of morality.

2018-07-28 22:29:49 UTC  

higher iq on avg = better person on avg

2018-07-28 22:30:06 UTC  

The progression needs balance though. Like if a high Iq kid gets put among bad ppl, they're going to be a super villain.

2018-07-28 22:30:20 UTC  

that's not a good argument

2018-07-28 22:30:21 UTC  

what

2018-07-28 22:30:30 UTC  

Nevermind smart people.

2018-07-28 22:30:55 UTC  

No time for lengthy discussions on the nature of good and evil.

2018-07-28 22:31:08 UTC  

high iq = good

2018-07-28 22:31:11 UTC  

low iq = bad

2018-07-28 22:31:17 UTC  

on avg

2018-07-28 22:32:00 UTC  

btw i dont necessarily believe in the accuracy of extreme iq scores

2018-07-28 22:32:07 UTC  

or even the iq tests themselves

2018-07-28 22:32:10 UTC  

but they're decent

2018-07-28 22:33:04 UTC  

if you want an easy exercise just look at the countries with low average iq scores and tell me if you wanna live there

2018-07-28 22:34:10 UTC  

That doesn't speak to morality exactly. I wouldn't want to live in a town run by children either, but I don't think they're evil.

2018-07-28 22:34:20 UTC  

Or a town run by dogs and cats.

2018-07-28 22:34:40 UTC  

the important thing is looking at averages

2018-07-28 22:35:10 UTC  

people always want to point to specific people and use them as an argument against the average when they are obviously accounted for in that measurement

2018-07-28 22:35:26 UTC  

Wtf are u on about

2018-07-28 22:35:35 UTC  

you're tying iq with good and evil

2018-07-28 22:35:35 UTC  

I'm talking about morality here.

2018-07-28 22:35:37 UTC  

and there is a link

2018-07-28 22:35:41 UTC  

Not survival skills.

2018-07-28 22:35:57 UTC  

I'm saying is shouldn't be tied to good and evil.

2018-07-28 22:36:05 UTC  

they are tho
