I’ve always though the Iraq war was a major test of intelligence and integrity since it changed the trajectory of American history and was arguably the worst mistake Americans ever made. If you opposed the Iraq war before it began, as Obama did, that showed good judgement, but far left liberals tended to oppose it whether they were intelligent or not.
Once the war began, if you opposed Obama pulling out the troops when he did, that showed good judgement, but conservatives tended to oppose the troop withdrawal whether they were intelligent or not.
One of the few people who got Iraq right on both decisions is gazillionaire turned reality TV star turned presidential candidate Donald Trump, reminding us that money and IQ tend to go together, even in the most unlikely of cases.
Of course the ultra-high IQ neoconservative intelligentsia hates Trump, probably because he comes across as an alpha male philistine, and probably also because he perhaps can’t be controlled:
Trump also said today he could get along with Putan. The ultra high IQ neoconservative intelligentsia hates Putin.
Pumpkin Person 
trump is a buffoon, but i’d prefer him to any of the other republicans except maybe the moron but sincere and honest santorum.
trump used to be a dem. he’s a RINO. he’s a repblican like bloomberg. the GOP is his party of convenience. he supports socialized medicine.
so what is smart?
i found this on youtube. two of the reputed smartest men alive talking to each other as they travel around manhattan. they’re smart but not superhuman. yet more evidence for a ceiling of human “cognitive ability” or as prof shoe says “cognitve abirity”.
Bruce Charlton feels there is a low celing on general intelligence caused by the physiological limit on reaction time.
I think most IQ scores above 160-170 or so are total bullsh!t.
Who ever said Garry Kasparov was that smart? His IQ is only 135 according to Der Spiegel…
The differences, past center bell curve, seem more marginal the further one moves right on the distribution. I remember pointing out a video with Eliot “whoremaster” Spitzer arguing with Ron Paul as an example of this type of difference.
On a somewhat related note, given the possibility that complex problem solving ability doubles every 5 points according to Pumpkin (I think it’s more like every 15 points actually), you would think that smart people would be way more dominant in positions of power than they already are. But the ultra high IQ just don’t seem that intelligent so they don’t (or maybe the average IQ are too dumb to appreciate their thoughts???)

Probably the latter. Average people can see the difference between IQ 100 & an IQ 130 but not the difference between an IQ 130 & an IQ 160.
Analogously retarded people can see the difference between an IQ 100 & an IQ 70 but not between IQ 100 & 130
People who have higher IQs are also better at seeing distinctions, which actually is consistent with the distinctions themselves being smaller and better detected by higher IQ individuals (if that heuristic is even accurate).
Neoconservatives have noticed that they can manipulate those who are dumber without them noticing, but, do they ever consider that that may be the case with them as well? Sweet dreams, Zionists lol
Huh?
yet more similarities between me an misdreavus:
1. we both think the afrikaners are the butt boys of history and apartheid was misunderstood everywhere except ZA.
2. we both agree that ALL of men’s woman trouble is caused by their inability or unwillingness to see themselves as sex objects.
3. we’re both anti-semites.
get up here pp with some amphetamine and provigil (or some other anti-hypnotics) and lots of n-backs and you’ll agree.
“The land of opportunity”, “The American dream”, “Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”: these are the sounds of the great sucking mechanism of the American parasite. The reliance of seduction and persuasion over coercion that sold democracy to the American people eventually sold it to the rest of the world. Although there are a minority of examples of the direct parasitism of involuntary immigration, especially slaves from Africa and the “legal” incorporation of Native Americans, voluntary immigration through the lure of freedom and equality is only a more indirect form of parasitic predation. What is voluntary can be no less predatory than coercion, just as capitalism can be no less predatory than military imperialism. From the point of view of competition among nations, the point is not whether a citizen or their ancestor originally arrived voluntarily or involuntarily, but whether a nation or ideology is successful in harnessing its human resources towards its national interest or way of life. American parasitism works because it offers the secular Judaism of liberalism rather than the secular Christianity of communism. Communism could never compete with the immigrant American hope that they themselves might one day be a filthy rich capitalist.”

Exactly right.
LOL I don’t think Misdreavus agrees to any of that, lunatic.
Haha you support Trump even though you;’re anti-Semite that’s hirarious.
Trump is not Jewish
I know but Donald Trump is hugely popular in Israel and he’s Zionist.
Besides, Trump’s style is very old-school wealthy Jew: ostentatious, loud, blowhard. Think Donald Sterling.

Trump is an opportunist.
Scary times we live in when Trump is the only Republican candidate worth discussing.
Nevermind, I think Trump is worst candidate. I’m not voting this election (again).
How old are you bro ?
Because, I am 36 and I am pretty fucked to make some genetic studies in order to save Africans.
Btw, I am also not voting since first Obama election.
You’re pretty fucked? Fucked up?
I’m 26. I voted for Obama in 2008 but I also haven’t voted since then.
What do you study ? What job do you want do after ? Are you married/have you a girlfriend ?
I am pretty curious, that’s not everyday that I can talk to a black HBDer.
Btw, I am not from the US, I am from Senegal and I had my greencard in 2005. So I am a pure black(I must be the only one in HBDsphere).
Without giving too many details, I’m currently completing a soft science Phd at a major research university. Not gonna say anymore, I’ve already blabbed too much about myself online.
Plenty of black people are into HBD; the most openly HBD-aware people I know are black! They just don’t use scientific jargon to express it 🙂
It’s just that the few black people with power (academia, media, government) have too much to lose by recognizing racial IQ differences so they continue to blame white people for everything (nevermind that whites aren’t even that powerful anymore).
