We all talk about human IQ and the common misconception is that someone with a high IQ will automatically have an higher understanding of life or reality or our perception of it. Yet in many cases you can meet or run into a lot of people in society that are very smart in intelligence but very fucking dumb in perception. A strong example of this is how silicon valley supports liberals. So i believe there are multiple levels of understandings. Im not sure how many levels there may be but for example i know there are at least two levels of perception. Level 1 is the NPC or the person that always believes what they are told by society figures. Level 2 Are the people that question the society figures and feel that something is wrong. Level 3 Could be the people that realize people can be shaped by thoughts and images and are trying to mold society by propaganda.
We need to recognize levels of human perception
The irony is is that no current system exists to encapsulate this notion, because it is readily apparent when talking from person to person that 'intelligence' and 'perception' are not synonymous with eachother. Maybe one day there will be something, but how would you measure it? Also, I think it's in the government's interest to make people feel smart (IQ) but ensure they operate as slaves to the system, lacking in self awareness and perception. Perhaps this is why there's no system to measure it?
bump for interest but I guess it will die anyway because of 4chan lemmings and schizos who aren't really perceiving anything
The followers and leaders model have been around for thousands of years, fren.
The fact is that the majority of people on Earth are NPC's with dynamic interests and emotions, but are almost entirely on autopilot and absorb 100% of what they see at immediate face value with no deeper connection. And like you said, a lot of this information comes from incredible social figures and big media and just burns holes in their brain permanently.
You also have NPC's that absorb anything that's counter culture. There are tons of right wing NPC's too. That absorb everything the rad right says to anti shill the left.
NPC's can be incredibly smart or incredibly stupid, but almost never intuitive and generally overly connected to certain things like emotions or something unrelated to their welfare.
Most of the non-NPC's I've ever met generally never agree or disagree with any opinions but rather state a likeness for aspects and then go on to explain their thoughts in depth or for whatever time is appropriate. Despite self declaration of humbleness they're usually egotistical.
I would say anybody who can fully acknowledge, and not just repeat the phrase, most people can be shaped entirely through propaganda and that society as a whole is almost entirely controlled using this method, are probably not NPC's.
But you have to truly realize that a good 8-9/10 people you meet, however interesting they may be, are effectively just byproducts of their environment and not a byproducts of extensive knowledge. They are shaped by what is given to them, not by what they seek out for themselves.
Level 4. People who realize all the above and attempt to analyze it.
Level 5. People who realize 1 through 3 and disassociate with people. And dream of genocide.
IQ is potential and just like with any other potential it merely makes it more likely that people will reach specific achievements with it, rather than being a certainty. IQ is often mentioned on Zig Forums not because anons think every high IQ human is automatically supreme, but simply recognize that if a race has a higher average IQ then it has more potential.
Stop lying to yourself, about what you believe and what you want. You can't classify others if you can't even be honest with and understand yourself.
Not trying to be a fag here. I'm serious. The most practical perception comes from introspection. Know yourself and you can move people who are like yourself.
what you said is so liberal my iq level regresed by 20 points
less jewdan peterson and more facts next time
Our education systems were corrupted to filter out real intelligentsia, while keeping the masses from overstepping a certain threshold (deliberately disarming their potential). The majority of modern intelligentsia is held hostage by non-disclosure agreements, a funding leash and the military stranglehold of alleged state security.
What you are reading on the web (outside of toxic propaganda) are the opinions of a semi-intelligent hive-mid of individuals who came to their knowledge out of necessity. This necessity was created by the human ability to adept to harmful outside influences, in this case "wising up" to a world that turned topsy-turvy. BUT this is not real intelligentsia based on studies, backed by history and ascended by like-minded free-thinkers…it's just a survival instinct to overcome short term dangers, nothing to built a future out of. Be aware of this and always question every narrative.
The Actual Three Levels:
Level 1: Whatever you believe in, it's for the wrong reasons. Maybe you're a retarded, bible thumping conservative with no filter for info, so you may get "woke" on fluride, chemtrails.etc, UFO stuff. In this case, you may have a healthy sense of tribalism, but clearly affected by progressive propaganda and have cognitive dissonance. Alternatively (if low-T or female), you will support left-wing positions in the same dogmatic manner while not really understanding the underlying rationale behind them. If Trump backs out of Syria, clearly war is a good thing and Obama was smart for having gotten us involved.
Level 2: You're likely on the right side of the IQ curve, but the left side of politics. You have the vision to see this brave new world through a glass darkly. The potential for a reason-based society. The problems that could be solved if we took that money from the mattresses of "The 1%" and used it to fund education programs and fix the environment. The social inequalities that keep us all down and fighting amongst each other.
It goes something like this:
"Religion is bullshit and has no place in politics. Of course vaccines don't fucking cause autism! Obviously AGW is real because the majority of scientists support it. And the sheer irrationality of racism - man, if only that ended and everyone could be allowed to reach their full potential… All these things making our world worse, and these "conservatives" and their retarded "principles" are enabling it all. All the corruption, all the wars, all this blatant pandering to the uneducated masses that's preventing humanity from ascending to the next level, or at least just doing these few common sense things that are unequivocally good.
And this right wing-propaganda and fear mongering too… The migrant 'crisis' is being blown out of proportion by right wing sensationalism, and people are coming to the wrong conclusions because of it. Sure, debating ideas is fine, but when your 'free speech' is blatantly manipulating people into committing hateful acts against minorities and fostering those attitudes, that has real consequences, and I have no problem suppressing that kind of propaganda.
If only the educated class could make the decisions, we could restructure the world to be better and more fair. We need to take power for that to happen, by any means necessary."
Level 3: You're now in the 120+ IQ range. You may have been Level 2 at some point, but you escaped that quagmire through some combination of smarts and curiosity. That sense of certainty evaporated as you gained perspective.
It probably started with economics. Suddenly, the minimum wage is just another price floor. Subsidies to college degrees just create a bubble, and graduates only make more because they were smart to begin with. Additional taxes are just a weird inefficiency, being consumed or lost to corruption/parasitism instead of being re-invested in the ruthlessly efficient private sector.
Of course religion is still dumb, but it has a positive impact for many normies. Normies will always be controlled by some religion/cult and Christianity is a benign filler for that inexorable tendency.
Though you don't really hate fags, gay marriage and retarded acronyms aren't objectively good things. Furthermore, there's nothing rational about promoting a sexual deviant 1-3% minority and giving them this incommensurate degree of cultural prominence. From a purely functionalist sociological standpoint, this is a complete aberration.
Race, IQ and crime are things. They are important. The people studying global warming are operating under perverse incentive structures and should be audited. Is abortion eugenic or dysgenic or society? Jews are occupying positions and doing stuff, but it's unclear.
Finally, you zoom out and look at the world again. You see the tribes. You see the demographic trends. You take your own side.
