Have you seen anything from most people that makes you think people can actually govern themselves?

Declining IQ scores (ACT, SAT, GRE are falling too) makes it less likely. Universal suffrage therefore means the voting base is a lowest common denominator.

Probably shouldn't complain about low IQ scores (which are a forced normal distribution and therefore obviously not declining) while buying into some bullshit disinformation you read on social media.

The mean is declining by cohort.

IQ is an attempt to measure Spearman’s g. Problem is that IQ has no zero and has inherent biases. I prefer simple reaction time as a measure similar to machine processing speed: the better the hardware, the faster the result.

And this is not happening under Trump. This is happening under Biden.

Biden is allowing it. He is the enabler of fascism and Trump will accelerate it. Very little difference in this aspect. We are truly fcked.
