    It seems you suffer from some misconceptions while being aware of some moderately obscure truth.

    First of all, good on yer that you know that IQ is normalized to 100. The problem is that this is true for some particular group of people. I'm not sure offhand what body does this normalization and what population they use, but thankfully, that knowledge doesn't matter.

    Any particular group of people will probably not have an average IQ of 100. Only the full body of people it's normalized to will.

    So if they normalize IQ to all USians, the average IQ in other countries will naturally be somewhat close to 100 (probably), but not precisely 100. So move people elsewhere and the average IQ of the destination country will change by some probably-relatively-small amount.

    Or, if the entire world is normalized to 100, then the average IQ in NO countries is precisely 100, and moving people around will still change the average.

    So I'm afraid you need to back up your clapbacks and take another think through on this, friend.

    this county sucks.

    You should broaden your horizons. :)

    It really is painful to read this kind of arrogant ignorance

    You really should check a mirror, bub.

    But it's okay, continue on and wallow in your own willful ignorance.

    Or feel ABSOLUTELY free to try and actually answer what I said.

    I'm not surprised you picked up on my lack of caring to find out the organizing body. It doesn't invalidate the truth of anything I said. But you ignore the truth and pick what you think is a GOTCHA.

    It's not a flex, kiddo. It just reinforces how stupid you make yourself look.

    Ignorant fuck.

    Based on the downvotes your getting. Quite a few of the people excited for this are definitely migrating to the left of the bell curve.

    Lemmy is wierd, the user base has a very inflated view of their own intelligence. For example, some will get confused and think since I'm on Lemmy I must be also guilty of this; their reasoning skills are quite terrible.
