The same things keep happening over and over, and so a smart person can see the signs and predict what will happen next.

Also, there's simple things like knowing what will happen if you spend all of your money, if you make someone angry, if you are kind to people, and simple things like that tend to have the same outcome. If a person can't see where common events are leading, they are stupid.

People who believe the media are also stupid and that is the reverse of predicting the future, but is related. There's been a giant history of false reports in the media and stupid people don't learn from past mistakes. So, they can't predict the future of what they hear in the media.

Humans are PLANNING MACHINES and our minds exist to keep us alive by planning. That's what BF Skinner thought about why we think.

In ancient times, humans wanted an apple for a tree. A squirrel would just run up the tree and go out on the limb and maybe fall. A human can imagine many ways to get the apple before they actually do it. So, our brains allow us to plan for safety.

So, people who cannot plan are the most stupid as they cause danger.

Also, IQ tests, which I have studied and given to people, aren't actually a measure of intelligence but are correlated very high with academic ability, meaning success in school. That's because the various parts of the tests measure related things.

So, a person can be GREAT at reading and ideas, but that doesn't mean they're logical people, so they are smart in some ways, but not all ways.

The famous author Phillip K Dick, was great with ideas and wrote many famous books. But, he was a drug addict and also probably very crazy as he thought aliens talked to him. I'm sure he was alone a lot and so on. So, genius creative, but totally malfunctioning otherwise.

People need to be looked at "globally" or "holistically" to see if they are really smart or not.

I said this in another thread, jews belong to a mafia like group. So, whether they actually believe in the supernatural stuff, they will not stop saying they're are "jews" so they can reap the mafia benefits. There's "atheists" who still call themselves jews. However, I have never heard of an "Episcopalian" say "I'm an athiest Episcopalian" because there's no benefit to being one.
Generally people with a higher IQ will be smarter, just like high IQ is one of the best predictors for success that we know.

“But X who was good at Y was also crazy and did drugs”... what exactly is your point? That some smart people still do drugs, and so on? Sure, I agree with you. I’m not talking about the individual. You can always find outliers.
There’s too many smart religious people, to assume anyone religious is low intelligence, imo.

“ Though never exceeding 3 percent of the American population, Jews account for 37 percent of the winners of the U.S. National Medal of Science, 25 percent of the American Nobel Prize winners in literature, 40 percent of the American Nobel Prize winners in science and economics, and so on. On the world stage, we find that 54 percent of the world chess champions have had one or two Jewish parents.”

The same doesn’t hold true for Eastern Europeans in the US.

The IQ stats are largely frauds. They're more politically connected. I've seen the people you're talking about firsthand. It's political nonsense, not quality, for awards like this.

People who lack self awareness and a broader global view who are brainwashed by the dominant ideology of their society and simply can't see past it. They just can't...

For example extremely pro-capitalist people who can't see how they're being cucked by the oligarchs

Extremely religious people who can't see the biases and faults of their religion

Extreme leftists of rightwingers who can't see past. Their own echo chambers and so on

Not being able to question your views and desires is the biggest sign of low intelligence. Do you ever wonder for example why you want the things you "want" in life? Do you really want them or are there just implanted desires put there by the ideology that dominates your society?

Why do you want to be rich?
Why do you hate and judge the un privileged class?
Why do you suck up to the oligarchs?
Why do you hate leftists or rightwingers?

Most of your desires are not really yours...

Having their personal beliefs in xyz retarded theory doesn’t bother me so much as if they don’t know to be taciturn and not breach it into normal everyday conversations.

In addition, nearly all the western religions are from Judaism. However, most western people aren't Jewish and are victims of having their culture snatched from them and replaced by Jewish ideas. So, western religious people are "cucks" and their real religious culture is dead and gone.

That's pathetic. I like the values of some of the religions but I'm not worshiping some mideast bullsh!t.
"Marxism could actually happen". Da fuq does that mean. Christianity has been happening for 2000 years.

are we talking about straight up just problem solving ability?

because to me thats what intelligence means

also related to that is spatial reasoning, fucntional memory, inductive/deductive reasoning,

being smart is the ability to solve problems. or create things. to think in a way no one else can and see the problem in a way that makes it not only easier for you but easier for other people

one of the best indicatiors of intelligence is the ability to explain a difficult concept to another person. not a retard obviously but someone who may not be quite as gifted as you are

Never did. Srs.

Used to read the Horoscope in the newspaper or magazines.

I guess I'm agnostic on it. Meaning that I've never decided who I would or wouldn't date, or which day to do something based on astrology.

But I think it is interesting how very highly detailed the entire thing is and wonder if there is a grain or two of real meaning. Because AFAIK is began due to the same type of observation and record keeping that were the foundations for astronomy, weather forecasting, agriculture, etc.

Is it possible that, e.g., where the day/night cycle was when your infancy began could affect some innate preferences or sensitivities? That's environment, right?

Fitting it to mythology is a whole other thing.

I suppose. I could have quoted some people I agreed with, or bragged about things I don't do. Or just not posted.

I kind of like to tweak misc about astrology though. There's a history...epic michellelynn thread.

- Watch a lot of tv and are easily entertained by just about anything on Netflix.

- Haven't voluntarily read a book in years.

- Never questions anything, just regurgitates what they hear on tv.

- Gives a chit about Prince Phillip dying.

- Volunteers themselves for science experiments, receiving little to no pay.

- People who call others "conspiracy theorists" or "anti vaxxers". Demonstrates the brainwashing by the media in which they have undergone.

My mother used to chase cows through the field when she was 9 months pregnant with me. She would get so stressed out and frustrated that she would cry. That cant possibly be so good for the baby.

Also, i was a huge baby born late and she wanted me out, so she did everything in her power to induce labor the old fashion way. If i had been born on my due date i would technically have been Aries instead of Taurus

All that stuff is definately environmental but it has nothing to do with the stars or the planets

ive had a lot of girls ask me what my sign is and when i say Taurus they roll their eyes and tell me their ex was Taurus, i find it kinda funny from a scientific point of view but also a bit ridiculous from a social point of view. Its a cliche almost. Since women base so much on their behavior on their emotions and how they feeeeeel about stuff.

Sometimes i would read my horoscope just for the hell of it and it was just so vague, like it could easily be applied to anyone.

There are environmental factors that affect a childsdevelopment and personality, i just wouldnt include celestrila bodies as part of the group of things that can directly affect our personalities

I think women like to play around with astrology because they like the notion of fate. Not only is it "romantic" but it absolves them of responsability.

The number of times ive heard a bitch say "well thats the Leo in me coming out"

Its like fingernails on a chalk board

Pretty much anyone not actively bettering themselves. This is the denominator. Individuals who better others I recognize as intelligent.

You do not know what you're talking about.

The original IQ tests showed jews to be morons. That's because those tests included "empathy" scales and generally, jews showed a complete lack of empathy. In pop culture "Spock" is a representation of that kind of Jewish being.

Later, the jews totally infiltrated psychology and reworked the IQ tests to eliminate the empathy part and focus on academics.

So, jews rigged IQ tests to show they have very high IQs as it measures what they are culturally good at.

Blacks come up as very low IQ because they aren't interested in study and even have cultural norms against it. So, they show terribly low IQs.

On IQ tests they throw in some stuff like "Who is Cleopatra" and "black" questions to make it so blacks can score some points.

None of what I've said is opinion, it's the facts about IQ tests which I have studied extensively.

Also: THE IS NO SUCH THING AS JEWS, they are German, Eastern Europeans, Arabs, Spanish, and Black people.

It is Eastern European "jews" who have the highest IQs. That's because Germans and Eastern Europeans have high IQs.

In addition, Harvey Weinstein probably had Jennifer Lawrence blowing him, then he got her an Oscar. These people are a narcissistic mafia and that's how they get endless awards and publicity.

They run the medical field so who will they nominate for awards, a Korean guy?

No.

Wake up.

I am on red alert if I see one on someone that has to do with important things in my life.
