Is it just me, or are many normies not intelligent? I'm not referring to the angst held against normies for their missunderstanding of suffering. Many robots or outcasts simply hold a grudge against normies because they don't have their jaded perspective on life, and I'm not referring to this.
I'm saying, I see MANY normies who:
>get all of their news from buzzfeed
>religiously watch generic television shows
>worship celebrities
>got a worthless degree (or just dropped out) >barely know what economics is
>getting married before even financially stable
>in relationships because they cannot handle being alone
>obsessed with sports (although many people who like sports also have good degrees/jobs)
>model their human interaction after 15 second vine clips that went viral
>think romance is similar to memes they see on vine (pizza, chipotle, touch butt, sit on couch all night)
>Spend $80 on a ticket to EDM festivals
>experiment with psychedelics a few times, think it "enlightens you"
>occasionally smoke weed, says things like (well alcohol is worse for you!)
>go to bars because they think that's what people are supposed to do after age 21
>sit around and play with phones while at bar, occasionally discussing one of the previously mentioned subjects on this list
>thinks Drake is cool
>fashion choices influenced by swag/nigger-tier pop celebrities
>takes inspirational memes seriously
>have not even thought about retirement, have no clue what a seriously profitable career is
>thinks backpacking Europe is the epitome of adventure
These are common personality traits I see among the most average/below average people I meet
>>28135728
Why does the amount of money they spend on a ticket make them stupid?
I'm gonna spend 400 bucks on a ticket for an event, which won't be a problem because I can afford it
They're not necessarily dumb but their opinions and beliefs can be completely trash due to mainstream media brainwashing and social media use
>>28135779
Well, EDM events mostly attract preppy people who think they are being rebellious, drug addicts, homosexuals, and general morons. Nobody are playing instruments, the entire culture is centered around various memes, and absolutely nothing good happens there. You jsut leave with slight hearing damage.
I've never liked electronic music, but I went to a couple electric music festivals around 2005, and it wasn't filled with normies. There were many dumbfucks there, but you'd also meet law students and genuinely intelligent people. It's basically a fag fest now.
>>28135871
i dont think most people who go to edm festivals think they are being rebellions, homosexuals, or are general morons. Yes most of them will likely participate in drug use but most aren't addicts- and this is no different than any other type of music festivals.
You can make an argument that normies have shit taste, but your list doesn't really say much about their intelligence
>>28135935
Taste correlates with intelligence. Stupid people are satisfied with things of poor taste.
>giving a flying shit about memeconomics
Pretty much, but many geeky robot shut in types are stupid as fuck too.
>normalfags who barely passed highschool and got drunk and did drugs all the time
>only get by in life because they're good looking or born into rich families
>robots who are simply slow and retarded
I've met people in college who definitely don't belong there. People who can't follow basic directions, write a proper paper, or can't solve high school level problems. I've seen shitty papers that just said "internet," as their sources. These are both normalfags and untouchable weird people. I'm not saying I'm a genius or I'm smart but lazy xD. I'm just sort of average. Maybe one ass hair above average.
>>28135999
Some parts of it are a meme, but if you haven't studied economics then you probably haven't studied how the market works, which is definitely relevant to becoming an adult
Its about half and half
Tons of normies have good jobs and do things of worth every day and figured out a way to be socially impressive as well as someone that is useful for a working organization.
>>28136005
Oh yeah, geeks being "intelligent" is also definitely a big-bang theory type meme. Many ugly people are also dumb as fuck.
Not sure how I would gauge myself. I do some things that impress myself, but I'm sure there are some people who think I'm an idiot or something
What does being smart mean? Does that mean being socially adaptive enough to meet people and enjoy life? Move up through the ranks of life and become well liked?
>>28135996
one of the smartest dudes I know, a cardiologist with an MD/PHD from UCSF with a background in EECS from berkeley, has the most reddit tier normie shit taste in the world
IQ is irrelevant. The best indicator of intelligence is success.
>>28135728
Agree with everything but the alcohol and weed thing. Being an alcoholic IS worse than being a stoner. Potheads just say stupid shit and don't get anything done. Alcoholics hurt themselves and those around them.
>>28136114
Lmaoooooo hey guys get a load of this upper class 105iq guy
>>28136080
I don't think so. I've always associated intelligence with leadership skills and innovation, whatever field it's in.
Example, Mark Zuckerberg is probably pretty smart a few different ways. But the people who are glued to Facebook are dumb as fuck.
But some leaders are pretty isolated people.
>>28136119
I agree with you, but they are both shit. Alcohol being worse than weed does not justify wasting your time smoking weed. I was just criticizing the kinds of arguments some people use to defend smoking weed.
>>28135728
I wouldn't say low iq but they're super simple minded, most likely from being able to live in large packs that do their thinking for them and they just have to go along the flow of the pack, instead of doing everything by themselves.
>>28136185
You're right. It's a cop-out they use in order to justify their shitty lifestyle.
>caring about a shit metric like IQ or testable intelligence
why does anyone care about that? would you want your child to have an insanely high IQ but be some cuck beta who isn't successful in life?
>>28136240
I don't think people with extremely high IQs usually turn out to be beta cucks.
But if you are into all of this tasteless nonsense, you probably lack leadership skills.
>>28136092
mostly because taste isn't correlated with intelligence
that's only a meme perpetuated by idiots on 4chan who think it works the other way, that if you have good taste (or whatever could even be constituted as good taste that would only be verifiable by other people looking to be validated) in random shit like music or video games then they should be considered intelligent
obviously that's not true
>>28136273
I'm not saying people with high IQs are, but the fact that anyone seems to be using it as a metric is ridiculous when you can instead observe something like academic, social, and economic success
>>28136273
Then explain 4chan, a site full of beta cucks who claim to have high IQ
>>28136277
that was exactly my point but thanks for reiterating
>>28135728
normies have normal IQs. they think in normal patterns and conceptualize the world in normal ways, and there's nothing wrong with that.
the only people i've met who think themselves "above" normies are generally only 5-10 IQ points higher with unwarranted superiority complexes, and have never experienced what it's like to interact with truly intelligent, successful people.
fun fact: a lot of those top tier tech schools like MIT and Stanford have high suicide rates among those aforementioned big-fish-in-a-small-pond students once they're dropped into deeper waters and realize how shit they are compared to genuinely brilliant people.
>>28135728
>People who do things I do not like/do are dumb.
Uh huh.
>>28135871
you sound like an uptight faggot who sits at home alone shitposting on /pol/ and masturbating to anime all day.
>>28136323
I mean there are like hundreds of thousands of 4chan visitors, so that's probably hard to generalize on. I think that people who post on boards like /biz/ /pol/ /out/ (or whatever other board with subjects that are not easy to grasp immediately) are probably not stupid.
If you surf 4chan often looking for discussion about slightly challenging subjects, you're already above the average pleb. Most people I've talked to think 4chan is some evil hacker website and if you surf it, you'll get killed or something.
>>28135728
>got a worthless degree (or just dropped out) >barely know what economics is
Economics is a worthless degree.
people are very bandwagon-ish and very BIRG (basking in reflected glory). an example of BIRG is people rooting for a team and if the team wins they go into a frenzy and say, "we won, we won". and people who weren't even fans become fans now because of the victory.
or American airforce bombs Japan, "we got those fuckers good!" even though you don't really approve of killing.
people even bandwagon on 4chan. it's either OP is a faggot or you try to have a logical discussion and the thread is derailed by 5 contrarians with no central points, they're just arguing for the sake of argument.
TL;DR: people care a lot about what other people think and do whatever makes them look cool to other people.

>>28136092
I think one can be successful academically without being actually that intelligent desu. Hard work and just the drive to study hard can bring people very far with average or below average intelligence.
>inb4 i'm a genius but i just don't work hard enough!
>>28136398
That's actually pretty funny about the suicide thing. I attended one of the Midwest's most "prestigious" colleges for two semesters. Half of the students failed the business courses every semester, shit was ridiculous. I felt like a fucking idiot with some of these people. They all spoke like 4 languages, were in great shape, and were flying through basically sleeping through statistics. I transferred because it was simply too hard and too expensive.
Definitely gave me a different perspective on life and where I stand in society. But it also confirmed that I am smarter than some demographic of the population, even though I met TONS of peers and professors who were far more brilliant than myself.
But I'm already ahead of many of them, because I started my own tech business and they are at home trying to get started on their cuck office position.
>>28136451
>business degrees are worthless
No idea how this meme started on 4chan. Scroll through job listings and see that many 50k+ jobs only require a bachelors in business.
>>28136450
>Most people I've talked to think 4chan is some evil hacker website and if you surf it, you'll get killed or something.

Is it just me, or are many robots not intelligent? I'm not referring to the angst held against robotos for their missunderstanding of socialising. Many normies or chads simply hold a grudge against robots because they have a jaded perspective on life, and I'm not referring to this.

The irrational hatred for that board is astounding.
Being unintelligent is normal. Consider that anyone with a double digit IQ is stupid, and anyone with a room temperature IQ is really stupid. Half the population is stupid.
It's really easy to sell things to stupid people because they have no concept of saving money or owning assets. Popular culture is a manipulative fraud based around selling things to stupid people: popular culture stupid.
Stupid people are loud, so you notice them more.
OP, try not to be so judgemental. Buying tickets to a music festival doesn't mean someone is stupid, it just means they enjoy music and don't mind large crowds.
>occasionally smoke weed, says things like (well alcohol is worse for you!)
alcohol is harder on the body, but there's nothing wrong with substance use from time to time. only idiots actually believed the D.A.R.E. lessons in school
>experiment with psychedelics a few times, think it "enlightens you"
Aldous Huxley seemed to be of the opinion that psychedelics can be a useful tool for who wish to enlighten themselves
>go to bars because they think that's what people are supposed to do after age 21
>sit around and play with phones while at bar, occasionally discussing one of the previously mentioned subjects on this list
Bars are way too expensive in my country, but there's really nothing wrong with wanting to talk with friends in a nice place while drinking beers at a leisurely pace.
>thinks backpacking Europe is the epitome of adventure
This one I agree with you. There are cool things to see in Europe, but it's pretty tame as far as adventures go. I don't think most college age girls actually want a greater adventure than this, because that would be scary. I don't advise it these days because all the places to stay are full of darkies. Speaking of which, if you want adventure then ride a motorbike across the dark continent.
The other things are a bit stupid, but this really seems like a case of "stop liking what I don't like".
>>28136628
I've been surfing /pol/ for about 3 years now. It was definitely more intelligent a few years ago. People would actually present an argument in the form of an argumentative essay with citations. Now it's just a meme fest. A great meme fest.
>>28135728
I've noticed this too. I think the problem is that the natural intelligence of most people is straitjacketed by social restrictions.
Trying to fit in with everyone makes you adopt beliefs you wouldn't adopt if you thought rationally about them. It also molds the minds of most people in a way that forces them to become more insular and shallow than they would be otherwise.
I wouldn't say that this behavior indicates an actual difference in hereditary intelligence between "normies" and "robots".
I also wouldn't blame "normies" for the dumb behavior effected by the social straitjacketing I talked about. You would have been one of them if not for your social isolation (whether self-imposed or not).
>>28135728
You're a retard for even having this though come into your head, OP.
Your argument reduces down to:
>normies do things which I think are dumb
How do you know whether they are actually stimulus response animals, as you imply, or CHOOSE to remain ignorant of, or are aware of but distract them selves from suffering.
If you ask me, the smartest person is one who finds a way to be happy and stay positive no matter what. Under this axiom, we are the retards for dwelling on our misery.
You're mistaking cynicism for intelligence and it's embarrassing for people to be around you, OP. They know the things they are doing are stupid and pointless, but it makes them happy, and you pointing it out makes you sound like a faggot.
and Drake is cool...
>>28136628
I don't think it's irrational at all. They literally sit around shitposting, circlejerking and headnodding cherry-picked anti-liberal propaganda, chanting MAGA and calling each other cucks 24/7
>>28136654
To be fair, civil unrest has been rising in western countries which makes up most of the userbase so it's going to attract people who want to voice their opinions without having to worry about it affecting their personal life.
>>28136651
>Dark continent
Had never heard of that until right now, pretty interesting. I'm going to do some anecdotals here. My criticism against "backpacking Europe" is because it is a meme. They heard it somewhere, and they put it on their bucketlist that is also full of memes.
I did an "adventure" through the third world, and that was enough. Fuck that shit. "explore the wonderful cultures of the world" is a meme. I just hike through Wyoming/Montana/Idaho back country and that's personally all I need for adventure.
>Everything in moderation meme
If you are on a mission to seriously accomplish something, you will not have ANY time to alter your mind.
>Aldous Huxley
Writers from the old days were always experimenting with drugs. It was sexy back then. The image of that died with Hunter S. Thompson (king of dumbfuckery). I've never read any literature from a person inspired from psychedelics that I thought was useful at all. Entertaining maybe, but not useful.
>bars
Goes back to my hatred of alcohol. People act like faggots when they drink, and bars are a faggot factory
I don't think this is a "stop liking what I don't like" thing. There are many people who do things that I have no interest in, but I still acknowledge that what they're doing is not a meme/band-wagon trend that they're randomly jumping on.
Example: My cousin learned clicking languages and is a missionary in rural Africa
I have absolutely no interest in that. It's cool that he's helping people, but I don't really give a fuck. I still acknowledge that he's a brilliant leader type for going and doing it.
>>28135728
>Is it just me, or are many normies not intelligent?
I think it has to do with the Dunning-Kruger effect.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect
>The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which relatively unskilled persons suffer illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability to be much higher than it really is.
Here is a related quote:
>The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence. -Charles Bukowski
Basically, stupid people are too stupid to realize how stupid they are, so they're full of confidence, and women are attracted to confidence. Stupid men are confident. Think of George W. Bush. Women are attracted to confidence more than intelligence.
For normal people, ignorance is bliss. They don't overthink things, they don't fully understand problems so they think there aren't any, life is simple, life is social, they don't worry as much, they don't think things through. The culture around you determines what is popular, so go do that, go be that. And technology infantilizes people, and everything is reduced to a soundbite. For normies, love is a meme you post about on Facebook, after you've added all the cashiers you've met today as "friends."
>>28136080
That sounds more like social intelligence.
Maybe you could even argue there is a kind of social IQ.
In that case, perhaps normies have a high social IQ, whereas robots have a low social IQ. Or maybe a robot has a normal social IQ, but thinks that so much of it is a bullshit waste of fucking time and energy, not worth the effort.
>>28136114
The best indicator of luck is success.
There are stupid normies and smart normies. Just like there are stupid robots and smart... no wait. There are no smart robots. If you are a robot, you ate by definition stupid.
>>28136681
Because I've known many normies on a deep level and have understood their upbringing, their daily routine, and their worldview. Of course this is all anecdotal. I couldn't find any sociology essays titled "Normies are faggots: A study on the modern day pleb".
I think my implication here, is that if you find this extremely meme-tier shallow entertainment and lifestyle enjoyable, you are probably not intelligent. I also think dwelling on your misery is bad, and you should fill your life with productive things instead.
You probably read my post wrong, I'm not implying that cynicism is intelligence. I said that my scorn for plebs is not because of their misunderstanding of a cynical worldview.
I don't really care if people like Drake (I really can't imagine), I was directing that at people who think that Drake is the king of modern innovation in art/music.
Normies also suck at public speaking.
>mfw bossman at work is having me speak for all the important presentations and shit
>normies and their constant "uhhs" and "umms" in between words in speech
>professional, confident tone
>normies sound awkward or like they're lacking confidence by the tone of their voice
>>28136905
But not you right? You're the exception :^)
Speaking as a "normie" i'd just like to say that a bunch of shit OP green texted signifies failing at being a normie.
Also the i've noticed robot types i've known are far less intelligent than they think they are. Typically they say shit like "oh i could have been a genius in school but i just didn't care" etc.
Intelligence is more than just academic performance. A well rounded person should be emotionally mature and not socially retarded or academic intelligence is worthless anyway.
You're not avoiding these so called normie activities because you're intelligent. You're avoiding them because you're a fucking loser with no chance of achieving these things for the most part. You'll never get married. Therefore marriage is stupid. You'll never go to europe because you don't have any friends to go with or the brains to co-ordinate a trip etc etc.

Academic success is a sign of intelligence? No, it's a sign of being able to jump through hoops, and checking the right boxes. The guy who got into all 8 Ivy League schools certainly got good grades, but he also had parents from Ghana and moved from Nigeria. That's great for diversity quotas.
Social success is a sign of intelligence? No, it's a sign of being able to craft a charismatic schmoozing persona. Are the people with the most followers on Instagram the most intelligent? Kim Kardashian has nearly 68 million followers on Instagram, and she's as dumb as a rock. Although Joan Rivers said Kris Jenner was very intelligent, because she's basically made her family famous for doing nothing. Like deliberately leaking her daughter's sex tape with a black guy.
Economic success is a sign of intelligence? No, for the most part it's a matter of luck, random chance. Or being in the right place at the right time. Or stealing someone else's idea.

They should be, but no, that doesn't make academic intelligence worthless.
The other day I watched the documentary Particle Fever about the Large Hadron Collider. I think it's safe to assume that many of the thousands of people working on it are social retards.
>You're not avoiding these so called normie activities because you're intelligent. You're avoiding them because you're a fucking loser with no chance of achieving these things for the most part.
It could be something as simple as society putting more value on extroversion, while associating introversion with being a "loser." Introvert who doesn't play sports? Loser. Introvert reading a book alone? Loser.
>You'll never get married. Therefore marriage is stupid. You'll never go to europe because you don't have any friends to go with or the brains to co-ordinate a trip etc etc.
After the rise of feminism, marriage is stupid for a male, because the entire deck is stacked against him. A man could get married and do everything right, then one day she gets bored, and so she ends up with half his stuff (or more), and he to become an indentured servant for the rest of her life.
And maybe someone doesn't want to go to Europe because they think it's overrated, or dirty, or they don't like large crowds, or don't want to be raped by Muslims, etc.

Smart people throughout history have found ways to find benefactors who will feed them.

Is it smarter to work more or work less?
>>28137738
Wagecuck. This anon >>28138579 is right. The smarter person would find a way to make a comfortable living without expending needless effort and energy.
For example, I could spend 8 hours a day, 5 days a week working for minimum wage at 10 dollars an hour. 400 dollars in a week. Or I could invest in my own business and resell things at competitive prices for profit and netting the same amount for the week but in far less time and energy.

>>28135728
Because the smart thing to do for your well being and sanity is to fit in and any intelligent person realizes this. What you can't tolerate you don't do, simple as that. Ultimately our lives are about compromise as we grow and live through the years if you want friends or relationships that is. Ultimately if you're smart you'll find people and activities that work for you. Just don't romanticize them in your head or have unrealistic expectations or they will be crushed and I can guarantee that.
Try to find the good in everything you do no matter how shitty it is because the default state is easy and requires no effort. /r9k/ is a great example of that. People who have been defeated and instead of continuing to find a way to make things work in a way they can tolerate they quit.
>>28135728
Critical thinking and isolation isn't an opportunity or luxury a lot of people have time for. Most normal people end up remaining social throughout their lives and ultimately never get the chance to sit down and ponder why they might do what they do. Some that do get the chance continue to do it anyway because an alternative to that is scary and foreign like being dropped on an island in the middle of the sea and being told to survive. You don't know if you'll meet anyone else on it or even if you'll live long enough to. It all comes down to the social aspect of things and no more really.

Lmfao, pick one you fucking cuck. You sound like a jealous POS. This post reeks of "stop liking what I don't like."
