All memes aside, why is /pol/ so intellectually inferior? Is it because this board is the newfag central of 4chan right now?
>>69160466
No. It's because of cognitive dissonance.
>>69160466
That's bullshit. /pol/ is actually one of the smarter boards and Trump has an IQ of 156.
>>69160466
Pretty much.
Also because of how general this board is. Its the host of all political discussion in 4 chan. Its gonna have stupid people.

>>69161041
Also keep in mind what the board is about. No fucking shit /sci/ and /lit/ is at the top.
>that high /sp/ score
it's my favourite board but it's literally just banter and shitposting with intellectual discussion being mocked. I'd say /pol/ users are much more intelligent.

>>69160466
OP pic is obvious bait,
/pol/ appears to be intellectually challenged at first glance but upon further examination its cause can be attributed to the newfag-detterant tried and true method we all know and love, shitposting

Sure thing, dankest menes and stuff.
Would it have really been that much of an effort to make a chart where all the data fits? Why did /lit/ go off the scale when it's only 6 points higher than the highest shown?

I don't even know what to say. I'm shocked.
I didn't think people on /pol/ were this stupid.
>>69164185
Did you even read the thread Nigel?
>>69164229
I see people discussing it. That's enough to make me believe people believe it.
Well first off its a poor made shit graph because the bars don't even line up and it has zero sources. And second off I wouldn't doubt /pol/ is lower IQ since we're actually not all autists here like most other boards are. It seems like more people on this board actually have some real life experiences unlike the retards on other boards who just sit at home all day being NEETs.
>>69160466
Because it's a satirical board where people take serious enough to post funny things but nobody actually acts like that irl
/x/ has the smartest posters
yet another libcuck propaganda to make questioning authority unfashionable

You would have to be a autistic mouth breathing retard to think a wallpaper board would score that high.
"Intellectuals" supported Maoism, I see no reason why anyone should take their opinions seriously just because they have high IQ.
This IQ is based on 4chan's population. It doesn't actually mean your iq was calculated based on a larger set of population.
GODDAMN, you monkeys, are retards

This was the truth initially, until stupid people wandered here and felt like they belong and now the place is a mix between shitposting and ironic shitposting. Some posts have so many layers of irony that everyone will have a different perspective on what the poster meant. It's kind of funny.

This. Also don’t forget the miata circlejerks, triptards, autotragics triggering manuels, manuels triggering autotragics, 555-come-on-now threads and many more shitposts.
Sometimes if you are lucky you get a good thread, also quality control is nearly non-existent.

Also without providing a source of how data was collected, raw data, and sample size this graph is pretty useless.
Even more useless when supposedly intelligent boards like /biz/ or /int/ are essentially /pol/ in terms of discussion but with a different flavor.
>>69160466
They based the test on areas such as RELIGION, POLITICAL OPINION, RACIAL AND SEXUAL DIFFERENCES, ECONOMICS, FUCKING WEALTH DISTRIBUTION, FUCKING CLIMATE CHANGE, DEFINING ART OF ALL THINGS, PHILOSOPHY AND ETHICS. LMAO
This whole graph is a liberal troll.
>>69160466
Someone literally took the time to make this graphic over being hiney hurt that his illogical liberal bullshit gets blasted on this board for keks

This. Pol is currently in the process of integrating a shit ton of conservatives who didn't know shit about politics before coming here. By this time next year they will probably be mostly natsocs again, but until than, Trump generals are pretty cool.
>>69160466

Also no board has an average IQ of 150.
>>69160466
I was driven here from reddit. It's getting stupider with every passing week as the election year progresses. I can't fucking take it there anymore. I think I lost 10 pts of IQ just from typing "reddit" earlier in this past. Shit.
>>69166700
I actually doubt /lit/ would make this and I already know /sci/ would rip this unsourced piece of shit to shreds.
Probably just normal bait.
>>69167586
They seem to have based most of the IQ off liberal values, if you read the discription. I'm not even sure how the fuck that worked.
Which makes the whole graph a lot more funny.
>>69165846
oh yeah but can you reach layers of irony that have never been explored before?

>>69169098
I can say, with complete certainty and devoid of any arrogance, that I am smarter than you are. I literally come to /pol/ to watch you fling shit at one another and rally behind a reality TV star running for the presidency. It's good for a laugh, save for the odd occasion when it makes me a little sad.
>>69169459
You're not, but OK.
This is obvious important to you, because of how much you're banking on a single letter typo I made while a bit tipsy.
So I'm letting you have it, you go on, feel smart. I doubt you have much else in your life worth living for it matter that much.

>>69167164
No clue. Without searching for answer I'm guessing it's either....
a. A point at which the common man is separated from the genius.
Or
b. A point which I.Q. levels out as a cap stone before the truly intellectual.
Still the fact that /ic/ or /sp/ is above /g/ seems like bullshit. Especially when /pol/ some how manages to be beneath /v/, or /vp/.
>>69160466
> /out/, /sci/, /lit/, and /wg/ are supposedly THREE STANDARD DEVIATIONS above the average IQ
You really expect me to believe that shit, nigga? HAVE YOU EVEN POSTED ON /sci/? It's a shitshow. AT BEST.
The more trolls the lower the IQ
>>69165846
agreed, this is why redditors come to the conclusion this board is either insanely racist or one big joke.
The idea that it is really neither is beyond them
Like those redpill comics, as insane as they are there is a truth to them that I love
>>69160466
Most people who browse this board are degenerated americans who think they're redpilled because they scream: ''WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO MURRICA YEAAAAAAAAAAH'' while thinking they're redpilled because they: ''dun fall for that shit in the librul media'', which is actually precisely what they do, because what they fail to realize is that both parties in the U.S serve the same long-term agenda, and they fall for it one way or another.
average /pol/ user is actually a perfect example of millennials who think they ''get it'' and that they're ''special'' but the truth being that they're a perfect case of ''just another sheep''.

The "I'm actually drunk right now" angle is pretty transparent. I'm embarrassed for you.

You guys know this is a troll image... right? Right?
Any forum where people are ACTUALLY trying new ideas (like here) is going to sound stupid, because we're experimenting, in comparison to forums where people are PRETENDING to try new ideas, but in reality are mostly just trying to sound smart (like university classes, or televised debates) in order to garner prestige.
