Discussion Are we already seeing signs of the average IQ in the West dropping?

[Hoppipolla]

Because... for example when I look at the most popular movies from the '90s compared to now or the '70s compared to now it definitely seems like they're getting dumber.

It just got me thinking.

What do you guys reckon?

 

[HomicidalSuicidal88]

It’s because of racism or something idk I don’t keep up with the excuses

Do you not WANT to see them?

The races have dramatically different average IQs. Just like different dog breeds do.

But in both cases there are strengths and weaknesses beyond just intelligence.

 

[Hoppipolla]

Wow, the vast majority of people on here think that there's been a very significant drop.

It would be interesting to try to find more evidence to back this up, if it is the case.

It’s been happening for a while, check out the Flynn Effect, or rather the limitations of it. Amongst children, IQ is going up in the developing world, but down in the developed world, even among white people. Not sure if there’s any studies of the effect on Asian people, but Australia has a big Asian population and the lack of growth is seen there too. There’s definitely a non-genetic impact, but it’s not impossible to rule out female emancipation is making it so brainlets are more likely to reproduce.

Yes if Einstein were alive today I'm sure he would be on TikTok...

 

[Manlet]

I would say a bit.
Enough to be noticeable but we haven't seen anything yet, for everyone who voted a lot just wait and see what the next few generations are going to be like, it's going to make now look tame.

Read "the dumbing down of America"

It's about the tiny committee of jews that decided on the curriculum...

The book was free online because no jews would publish it... (But its probably printed now that folks are too stupid to understand it)
