Anytime people say things like high IQ my opinion drops.
Yeah it reeks of people who took an online “IQ test” and got a high score so they’ve molded their entire personality around it.
Free thinking, high IQ inviduals:
I should make c/piss /j
Free tinkling 💦
Free thinking 😂😂
Redditors thinking they’re the first line of defense against fascism is hilarious. The call is coming from inside the house.
Also, anyone who refers to themselves as “high IQ” is not worth listening to. In fact they might be even stupider than anyone who’s actually intelligent.
I’m high IQ, my life is fucked up dont do high IQ guys, morons are much happier
I know right - a platform that bans people for anything that goes against a mods narrative - absolute clownery
People who are actually smart, regardless of their IQ score, know that IQ is a terrible measure of intelligence and would never brag about it.
people who actually have high IQ go “man i wish i was normal so i could get a job”
Oof. This comment his hard, but you’re right!
Damnit 😝
I actually do have a high IQ, around 120. I was tested as part of my ADHD diagnosis.
All it’s good for is knowing that I don’t know shit.
120 is the minimum for above average. I wouldn’t consider it “high”. (Not ragging just being honest, I’m also in the 120’s)
Well the average is normed to 100. So 120 is not the minimum for above average. The top 9% of population would be above 115iq.
While high IQ is more of a diagnosis than anything, the statistics are real. I don’t know why you don’t want to consider top 9% as “high”.
What is high in your opinion?
High enough that you guys Do Not Work To Potential
most common thing in the world is unattained potential
Didn’t somebody say something like that?
Finally I can feel good that my not-giving-a-shitism is common and normal
See, this is the thing about being smart. You’re intelligent enough to realise that there’s a lot of shit you don’t know.
When you’re thick you just believe any old bollocks you read…
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Fuck anyone and everyone that fucks up public bathrooms.
I feel the opposite way. I hope people who fuck up public bathrooms never fuck again.
That’s valid.
Good thing Lemmy is safe since .ml folks agree with MAGA on lots of things. 🌝
It’s great seeing shitlibs building their campfire mythology in real time
You have been banned from .ml
Bound to happen by being anti empire of all flavors
As long as they’re to Kremlin’s interest - oh yes, yes they do
Which is basically all of them, we may as well start calling them MLAGA
Also we’re smarter than Reddit.
…like, did you know Kremlin, is very close to the word Gremlin? How about that.
I like gremlins but I dont like kremlins so what do I do with that knowledge
Shut up and show me your beans
Mar-A-Lagas
Also, we’re actual intellectuals, obviously. Contrary to those reddit wannabes
So I’m the smart now?
Good thing we can just block instances/communities so we don’t need to ever listen to their bullshit drivel.
Too bad block doesn’t mean block to the devs LMAO
Exactly. I’ve blocked hexbear, but I can still see their responses to my comments.
Even on an individual level, like what is the point of blocking someone if they can still fully interact with your posts and comments, just you can’t see it.
That’s a mute, when Xitter tried (or did? Idr) to downgrade their actual block to essentially the same thing that Lemmy has now it was met with outrage.
Proper blocking should be a core feature of any social media, it’s not a ‘nice to have’ feature that can be developed when there’s time for it
because preventing others from “interacting” with an account relies on their instance respecting yours.
then don’t call it block, call it mute
That’s not really an excuse to half ass it, there’s lots of things a rouge instance could do and that’s one of many reasons defederation is a thing
Understand that!
Me personally -
Team Noblock here defending new Lemmings against apparent echochamber threads
Yeah it never was about ideology, it was always about supporting USSR and now Russia. This is why they nearly indistinguishible from each other despite supposedly being on the opposite side of the spectrum.
👀 what did I miss
Fig 1, geniuses at work:
20 quatloos on the newcomer!
Reddit: We’re intelligent, free-thinking anti-fascists.
Also Reddit: Antifa and Nazis are basically the same.
Lemmy Shit Post? More like Lemmy Piss Post, amirite?
Free tinkling*
One of my friends tried to say the same about ifunny, fucking ifunny
I used to use iFunny. It had good memes on there. Granted, I was like in elementary school
lol
I often muse about how can the vast majority of people have an above average IQ … according to them that is.
Selection bias. The nature of Reddit and its past as a liberal free speech zone lends (lended?) itself to particular traits. Reddit’s average user is some combination of the following:
- male
- in a STEM job or training/educated for STEM work
- grew up middle-class
- downwardly mobile
- has ADHD or autism
Altogether this does actually mean IQ probably trends a bit higher on average. That doesn’t mean shit for the quality of your arguments if you don’t critically examine your beliefs though, and anyone spouting American media talking points is not examining anything.
(I didn’t mean Reddit, just overall people/the world. Tho not disagreeing directly, but the way you described the average Redditor might end up in their page/ads & marketing/shareholder meetings. Also not sure if any of the 5 points correlates highly with iq. Again, not disagreeing, & the last bit of your comment makes it perfectly clear you arent relating that to any sort of quality.)
Technically possible. Most people have an above average number of arms
