If everyone on this board (and much of 4chan) is so high IQ, how does everyone here not get bored of similar shit being reposted for eternity?

Everything is doomed to decadence, 4chan now is nothing but the niche sector of media consumption for the edgy kids and weirdos, and stormfront propaganda factory and recruitment.

'Mr. Nabokov, I want to be a prostitute.' Nabokov looks up from the ten-year-old he's fucking and points to a dead-dog outside his office window.

'What kind of dog is that?' he asks the student.

'What?'

'What is the name of that dog?' asks Nabokov. 'The one outside my window.'

'I don't know,' says the student.

'You'll never be a prostitute.' says Nabokov.

Just because things are similar over time doesn't mean that they're bad or not still enjoyable. Sex, every time, is just a repetition of the same basic mechanical motions over and over, but that doesn't mean it's not great or enjoyable due to repetitive similarities. Same concept holds true for music.

Colonialization has a lot to do with it. There isn't any way to act like it didn't happen and its not unreasonable try and help these people catch up with the world. Its the duty of the strong to help the weak.

I agree. I'm a below 70 IQ autistic, too.

IQ doesn't mean you have a short attention span. There's also the matter of refining your mind, which can only progress through repetition.
You'll barely ever get the best answer on the first attempt, even if the best answer is ignoring something.

This board sucks. I'm not kidding. Why would anyone be belligerent in trying to defend it? It's very similar posts and recommendations that don't really go beyond a Freshman level lit understanding. I don't mean the IQs are egregiously low, but I do doubt the veracity of everyone here referencing their "personal genius." I don't think the best writers in America spend time on this surface level board; they probably spend time either interacting with like-minded (actually) educated individuals or, you know, read books.

Seriously, do we need more H.P. Lovecraft or Mishima or Nabokov or Dostoevsky threads? Nazi shit, again? How original.

I do see your point of course, but high IQ people aren't exactly easier to discourage than average or stupid people, and there's always at least some content that will appeal to each of these groups.
Now I don't know how factual this is, but I believe intelligence is also positively correlated with a need to "play", so depending on the environment you'll also see a lot of stupid stuff, or bait, in those circles, as long as it's not actively discouraged or unrewarding.
Overestimating your own intelligence in itself is a mark of the foolish, but you can also reach a point where you're forced to acknowledge you are genuinely more intelligent than the average person. Taking yourself too seriously never is a good thing however, but also something the less intelligent are more prone to do.
People being slightly above the curve on average isn't that uncommon in certain fields of online discussion in general, but most people aren't as smart as they think, especially the ones super serious about it.

If /lit/ is really “high IQ” then the human race is doomed. The board is populated with barely-literate memers who think they’re smart because they post their off-topic political threads here rather than pol.

[Anonymous No.12577671]

Then you actually post something original or ask a unique question and it gets buried.
