      There was a website that estimates IQs (emphasis on estimate) based on writing. It estimates that news reporters averaged 100-120, Stephen Hawking’s last work was in the 150s, Alexander Hamilton had works in the 160s, and Qanon conspiraters on Facebook averaged 75-89. Obviously they’re estimates, but it seems rather accurate within margin.

      Edit: found it!! so you guys can try it yourselves!

      I entered sections from my papers I wrote during my master’s and I guess I range from 128-151 as my lowest and highest during that time. Great ego boost for the day lol.

        Since right wingers are often decried as Nazis, this practically begs the question of how high Hitler’s IQ and that of other Nazi leadership was.

          I think modern day Nazis differ from WW2 Nazis tbh. German Nazis just blindly followed protocol and had many scientists who came out of it caught in the crossfire while current skinheads have the capacity to learn something else and admit to accountability, but actively choose not to do so despite everyone around them clearly calling them out for it.

          …I’m pretty sure the one thing they never accuse Hitler of, is being a dummy

          I’m sure Hitler had decreased mental function due to his experiences in the first world War and excessive stimulant use.

          There’s communication intelligence for sure, they know what to say to convince a certain group of people, like Trump does.

      Right wing doesn’t mean prejudice. But I do wonder if this is in the half-third of sociology studies that can’t be reproduced.

          The right doesn’t hold a monopoly on stupid racism.

          EDIT: An example for downvoters with no world history.

            I think you’re comparing apples and oranges. Every white supremacist votes on the right.

              both antiauthoritarian leftists and proauthoritarian rightists are equally likely to be racists.

              Every tankie votes on the left, are all leftists tankies? And, every other person disagrees on what right and left mean in the first place.
