Overlooked/subtle signs of low IQ
What are some less common ways you use to detect low IQ?
One that I've been noticing lately is the letter spammer. They'll emphasize a word by spamming one of its letters, typically the last one in a sentence but not always eg "beach dayyyyy". It's an immediate tell for me

using the term iq in place of the term intelligence

Someone that consume media meant for the masses
Someone thats always talks without thinking unable to reflect
Someone that cares what people think of them
Someone agreeing with all the positions adopted by the current powers
Someone that lives in hedonism

Just a few

Conditional hypotheticals.
Attitude towards pitbulls.
Voice volume control.
Thought abstraction level (empathy to wait staff, for example).
Publicly aggressive body language (ugly, angry stares and prolonged, aggressive eye contact).
Impulsive behavior (cutting in line at a theme park)
Childlike attitudes (demanding free things from customer service)

Most of these things are actually easily and safely observed at a theme park, now that I think about it

Honorable Mentions:
No inner monologue/"voice".
Low intelligence people can easily assume popular opinions, and parrot general ideas, thanks to mass media, but rarely can articulate what makes them believe those things.

Posting on this board, tells me immediately that you're low IQ.

Some unsubtle, easily detected and (unfortunately) common words that instantly signify it:
>literally
>unironically

Based on pic rel, I suspect you’re talking more so about mid-wits who aren’t as smart as they think they are than you are actually low IQ. Actual Low IQ (sub-100) is easily perceptible, often even visually. Mid-wits are also easily perceptible but only for people with above average IQ. They often appeal to consensus, and when they ostensibly depart from it, they’ll pass off “hot takes” that they didn’t even come up with as their own and act like it’s controversial even though it’s the default opinion shared by all mid-wits in their social class. They’ll make sure people know they went to college by referencing material from a 101 course they took even though it’s tedious and unimportant for people who have more than the most basic comprehension of the relevant subject or discipline, they’ll make concepts sound more complex than they need to be with superflous vocabulary, they’ll memorize factoids from “academic literature” and use them to make a point in lieu of actual reason, and often reference “logical fallacies” when it’s clear they don’t actually understand logic. Just to name a few things.

They think people are stupid for not knowing certain things due to lack of experience.

Or they think they're smart for knowing random trivia
