yes, you need IQ tests to figure out someone's an idiot.

We never would have guessed you are one without having access to your IQ score,


there is a nobel prize winner who thought eugenics is a good idea. another believed in astrology.

Scoring well in IQ tests is a requirement for a noble? You're making stuff up.

Of course they should just throw all the tests out and ask you who has and hasn't got a high IQ. Anyone that kicks your ass on these message boards you simply assign them a low IQ.

Of course it's plainly and painfully obvious where this mistrust in IQ tests is coming from, people who score badly in tests often blame the test.

nonsense. you don't take into account actual aptitude, education, ambition.

Notice I wasn't comparing individuals, but groups. All the attributes you describe would likely be equally represented in both groups.

I don't think you even tried hard in school.
