According to Michael Anthony Woodley of Menie, English IQ declined by 13.35 points between 1889 and 2004. Woodley also claims that England is the nation in Europe with the most rapid IQ decline with loss of 1.26 pts IQ per decade. According to Richard Lynn, a Scot from Edinburgh, the average English IQ will hit 87 by the end of this century. However, Edward Dutton disagrees and claims that English average IQ will hit 85 by the end of the century.”

More evidence Europeans have been completely ravaged by the industrial revolution. They used to be much much more intelligent up to two standard deviations higher in IQ than they are today.
The Flynn Effect is primarily verbal and is apparently a statistical aberration based on people being illiterate and learning how to read. If you look into it, spatial intelligence has been at best constant, and possible declining.
After seeing what the generally accepted food does to body and mind firsthand, it’s not hard to believe this.
The most intelligent groups today are the ones that were the most removed from the industrial revolution. I’ve honestly had a hunch the Flynn Effect is off, because people seem less capable than ever before.
This research indicates that intelligence negatively correlates with fertility, and mental reaction time strongly correlates and has causality with intelligence. The basis of that claim seems to be that reaction time is the health state of your mental circuitry.
The research suggests it’s possible to use the reaction time delta between the present population groups and measurements from the past population groups, as a way to determine the damage done to previous population groups. Europeans notoriously have the lowest reaction times out of any population group on earth showing the most damage!
