Absolutely. This idea that some ephemeral IQ will result in more freedom is idiotic. People accept the arguments that sound best. And intelligent people are just as susceptible to academic language and "what studies prove" as the uneducated rock farmer who can't write their own name. It is all about speaking the language, not how smart you are. Of course, even if such foolishness were true, it wouldn't change the fact that even stupid people have inherent inalienable rights to be respected and promoted. The whole argument from people like Spartan is so historically ignorant that it is dumbfounding that anyone actually believes it. But, again, it is all about language and how you can manipulate data, not about rights and freedom.

IQ is an ephemeral notion to begin with. It doesn't test how smart you are, just how many facts and formulas you can regurgitate at any given moment. But that isn't intelligence.

IQ tests don't really tests facts or even "formulas." They're exercises in pattern-recognition and logic.
"Intelligence" may be hard to definitively quantify. So is "strength." But if you asked me who's stronger, I'd ask you what their bench press numbers are. And if you asked me who's smarter, I'd ask you what their IQs are. It's as reasonable a measure as anything.

If your own IQ is above 100, you have certainly done a good job of pretending otherwise over your tenure on this website.

The funniest part is that this guy has no clue how IQ is measured. It's designed to be a normal distribution with half the population below the mean (100). If you remove people at the bottom of the curve then everyone elses score shifts down to keep the mean at 100. So basically you'd have to remove everyone from society.

That's not how IQ tests work at all. They are basically the complete opposite of that. They are designed so that no prior knowledge base is really needed.

The commonest test, last I checked (10-13 years ago or so), is the WAIS III. WAIS III tests a lot of things, and is designed to test without bias. It doesn't give one number as your IQ. There are separate scores for language skills, spatial ability, digit span, etc. (well beyond pattern-recognition and logic) IMO, this is the test people should rely on instead of the Binet test and others.
IQ is highly over-rated. Discipline, persistence, and individualism are the driving factors of western civilization. It allows people with sub 100 IQ's to achieve and contribute more than OP probably has.
If you believe in your values then you shouldn't be worried about letting them stand on their own in a no holds barred cage match.
God forbid the darkies became more successful at being white. What a terrible outcome that would be. One might actually have to compete on their own merit and effort rather than cruising on the effort of their ancestors.

Maybe he thought they were grading on a sliding scale.
Knew some professors who used that scale.

The real shame is that the Alt Right is great on promoting anti-interventionism, exposing Lincoln and combating cultural Marxism in it's many forms. But then you have some nefarious elements trying to drag people towards the white supremacist end.

The real problem with this group is they believe individualism to be the cause of the world's problems. They are just another flavor of collectivism.

ITT: No one (with the possible exception of the deceased American Spartan) knows what the alt-right is.
And no, I'm not a member or a devotee. The alt-right is a wave to be ridden, and it'll crash sooner rather than later.
