Remember: IQ is on a bell curve, not a straight horizontal line. If everyone had at least an IQ of 100, we’d be living in a totally different world than what we’re living in right now, guaranteed. All more access to information has done is give the dangerously stupid people mroe things to misinterpret and misuse. It’s also given malicious people a way to access the stupid and the gullible to use them as tools for whatever bullshit they want to perpetrate on the world.
Huh. IQ is normalized. 100 is always the mean no matter if the entire population got smarter. It’s impossible for everyone to have an IQ of at least 100.
More than you’d think it is, I think. There are far more sub-100 IQ people being stupid about important things than there are people with an IQ above 100. I’m not even saying that someone with a high IQ can’t be gullible or can’t be fooled, but it’s less likely.

That’s not how IQ works.
Which part? By definition IQ follows a normal distribution and 100 is set as the mean/median – meaning that 100 is always the average result
Edit: nevermind I did a stupid, you’re correct that it’s literally impossible for everybody to have IQ over 100
I feel you my friend! Have a great day!

I don’t think this is about IQ dumb.
