Yeah but there is not a structure for super high IQ people to breed together. And really it's not about the average it's about the super bright people on the right end of the bell curve. In the past one could argue that landed gentry and royalty as a system allowed super high IQ People to breed with one another.

Oh yeah, let's go back to our roots! What a fucking idea, anon, how could it have possibly popped into your dumb little brain? It's almost like your ghastly hunger to slurp up every last little gluttonous-piggy crumb and drop of culture has left you with the seeds of some form of... Enlightenment?
You're five fucking hundred years too late for "wait primitivism is cool" boat. Even if you tried to do whatever neopagan/animist/anti-industrial shit you think would reverse the current order of social relations, you wouldn't even slow the acceleration. You're such a pleb.

OP wouldn't last a day in the wilderness. Not because of living conditions, but because he's a neurotic little kid who's addicted to technology, porn, image boards, videogames and processed food/beverages. This applies to both "bloody revolution" commies and to Ted-tards. Something tells me that these two types of people who obsessively yearn for society's collapse would be the least equipped to live in the wilderness, definitely worse off than the average person.

if you are proposing a return to a more primitive way of life you should at least be able to live and show people how to live without modern technology.

While the so called Flynn effect (IQ steadily rising) has been used as an excuse for every new development, the effect has slowed if not reversed. Flynn himself said that it is probably just due to a change in how we think about intelligence: People didn't believe that Abstract reasoning was equal to intelligence but more practical and nature-related thought was seen as intelligence. Everybody began to wear scientific spectacles over the past century.

Well you couldn't really become upper class in those days, so high iq people born poor had no upwards mobility.

I'm interested in understanding the widening disparity between the common people and monolithic conglomerates and how advancing technology is threatening to undermine human life to a potentially irreversible degree. Now, this looks like a good place to start, but I sure as fuck don't want to be put on a list for reading a terrorist's work. Is it worth it to go forth and hunt his books down?

Note: To all CIA, NSA, and FBI agents reading this, I will absolutely not send bombs to people I don't like because I'm not that big of a faggot and am not willing to endanger my ability to live somewhat freely by doing that.
