Thoughts on being able to pick your babies IQ?

>>82050027 (OP)

IQ tests are standardized to have 100 be the mean. Society and its views will change drastically if the population were ever to shift towards today's 130 IQ as the new 100 IQ. Imagine a world of brooding Schopenhauers blackpilled about life.

>>82050060
That's what the Flynn effect did over the last century through the 1990s. It didn't create a bunch of brooding bitches. The gains were all made in the lower half of the population and the scale was renormed to 100.

>>82050060
Is there an inflation calculator for IQ to translate what a 100 in the past would score today?

high iq is almost never a good thing, 110-115 is enough to get you ahead of the curve but not enough for you to notice things

>>82050230
this, 120 is peak performance. you might notice but you'll be normalpilled enough to not care and just ignore it

>>82050027 (OP)
Have no idea what that information is about but I would literally never "pick" anything, just breed a European foid and get a 11/10 baby.

>>82050237
yeah i guess 110 is like average in some areas but 120 is enough to get a phd in STEM

>>82050237
can confirm, 121, way too hyperaware of my noticings. how do i shave this last point off?

>>82050060
I don't consider Schopenhauer's brooding topics to be very deep, he only scratched the surface, but we also have to consider a 19th century man that was smart at that time is probably only a 90-100 iq equivalent at today's standards.

try alcoholism, ive managed to tank from 140 down to about 125 with years of substance abuse

>>82050027 (OP)
it's time to wipe out humanity and start over

>>82050230
i'm 130+ iq and more successful than most people i know who are not as smart. i think i'd be happier to have more intelligence and see no downsides whatsoever

>>82050267
you're on r9k retard

>>82050270
you make false assumptions based on that fact, which has everything to do with you and nothing to do with me

>>82050275
>you make false assumptions
ok but that's just your opinion and not an argument

>>82050230
Being better is bad because you can notice that things are bad? That's certainly a retarded way to look at it.

>>82050270
You are making a claim operating on the belief that users of r9k must be retarded, yet your only concrete example of the intelligence of someone that uses r9k is yourself. You are 100% of the people you know that use r9k, and you assert 100% of people that use r9k are retarded. You're 100% retarded.

>>82050027 (OP)
Favstian, I guess. But I no longer care what people do if it doesn't affect me directly.

>>82050302
it's implicit in the context of your response. you view this as some kind of loser club, probably because you use it for that purpose. not everyone is wallowing in misery like you.

Picking the highest so I have a genius monocle wearing baby coming out the womb saying Indubitably and shit

>>82050257
He was probably a bit above the modern average. Most people can't understand antinatalism. They don't just disagree with it, they outright can't even understand it.

>>82050335
here's your baby, bro

>>82050360
Well, antinatalism itself is pretty retarded anyway. I'll haggle him down to 85, final offer.

How is that possible?

Reddit told me that intelligence is from school and niggers are only dumb because I didn't give them enough money

I mean it depends. People from poor neighborhoods or areas are low IQ in general, which in turn causes more crime rate and stuff. Look up the cycle of poverty, you'll get it. But having a high IQ can also be genetic, like your brain may be able to connect or learn new things quicker than average. Though know that two high IQ people having a baby doesn't necessarily mean the baby will also be high IQ.

>>82050206
The Flynn Effect never made a massive increase in IQ, just a mild one, and we are now going rapidly in the other direction as we import third-worlders who would have been considered retarded before we changed the definition of mental retardation.

>import MILLIONS of pajeets with an AVERAGE IQ of 76 (aka half of them are even lower than that)
>wtf why are average IQs in the west dropping

>>82050027 (OP)
i have never met a high IQ person who was anything more than a sperg good at crossword puzzles

>>82050310
>You are making a claim operating on the belief that users of r9k must be retarded
there's no logical coherence in that claim
>Being better is bad because you can notice that things are bad? That's certainly a retarded way to look at it.
define better, also yes
>>82050320
>it's implicit in the context of your response
ok and i'm explicit in the acknowledgement, fallacy fallacy

>>82050060
Schopenhauer had these views because he realized he was surrounded by retarded animals and nothing he did could change that

>>82050027 (OP)
very based, i wish my parents had done that, but i'll definitely do that with my kids.

funny how most if not all high IQ people i've met, had a very positive outlook on their own life, as well as an apparently good mental health state, and generally able to integrate well when needed, meanwhile some self proclaimed "high IQ" robots losers here seem to blame all their problems on their totally "very high IQ". Sounds very much like some sort of self-fellatio cope

>>82050027 (OP)
Actual man-made horror

>>82050447
The cycle is low IQs creating poverty though.
>Though know that two high IQ people having a baby doesn't necessarily mean the baby will also be high IQ.
It's no different than two tall people having a kid. It probably will be tall/smart.

>>82050230
very high iq is a very good thing in modern society as it provides the critical and logical thinking as well as increased learning speed necessary to navigate and debug in the digital world

>>82050027 (OP)
Why limit it to just iq? IQ won't save you from being a mentally ill faliure? I would rather have a kid with average iq than one turing out be an autist troon fag etc.
