>137 IQ take on reading, intellect, rationale for communism

I’m pretty sure the biggest reason I’m different at all to other people is that I just habitually read a lot more than normal people. I’ve failed plenty of classes I had no interest in, and I’m sure people are just simply more “dumb” in areas their brains perceive (whether through evolution or environment) as just fruitless or not prioritized. I can do insane amounts of arithmetic, but I’m way too slow to process things for short conversations, so I come off sounding like an idiot almost always initially.

The trivia god is as smart as the physicist, just interested in different things. Most people are as smart as one another, given the brain doesn’t vary that much from genius to idiot, and it’s kinda interesting to think that if we see two 16 inch biceps on two different but identical men, we assume they contain the same relative strength, but we never apply that same meat-size logic to brains.

At the end of the day, everyone can be powerful PCs but if the wiring and programming isn’t what society needs or wants, then they’re fucked in modern society. I’m pretty certain due to the wide variety of environments we all evolved in, there’s simply not a very reliable baseline for the ideal brain. The fact that the more intelligent someone is, the more likely they are to be mentally ill is a good example to point to. Sure, self-improvement can help out somewhat but it’s still a very limited thing that at best expounds on someone’s innate talents, as we’ve seen in the case of just about everything material that will matters very little.

Whenever people speak of “the will to live,” it’s just another way of referring to a biological organism either choosing to expire or choosing to try and survive. This has nothing to do with will, so much as a calculation of things and incentives. That’s all. Your will is nothing more than your brain’s ability to hold out in the hope of something better down the line. Again, you’re merely a rider, not even the driver in your body.

While it may sound like I’m trying to diminish the individual here, that’s the opposite of my intention. I have no respect for the meatbags that we all don at birth, but I think if we’re just these invisible riders buckled to a body, we might as well as try to change the world around us to make it more suitable for ourselves. Why should someone born into a meat bag with specific interests and of whatever wealth be consigned to a life of wealth or poverty based on just the results of the constellations of chance itself.

If life was a casino, then our capitalist society has largely handed over most of the chips to random people and enslaved a good amount of the population to work in exchange for those, living hand to hand. It’s not a game when there’s no competition, and the simple fact that we are born in these faulty meat sacks, impotently riding along, means maybe we should try to make the ride as pleasurable for each other as possible.

There’s no point in holding onto this identity forged by material manifestations. I can’t believe people are this fucking stupid, that they don’t bother to even read or try to understand this kind of stuff. The whole point of life is distancing yourself, as the passenger, from the material form that everyone is familiar with, in order to see the bigger picture.

Please stfu you dumb retard, if you wanna know about the relative (but not absolute, we have no way of measuring that) differences in intelligence, just read the IQ literature. You are plain wrong and pls get a life.

You are different to others only because you choose to ignore your similarities.
