>You never heard of the Flynn effect?

Flynn effect is due to environment, and as such it is unsistainable if the underlying genetic trends are dysgenic. Also, Flynn effect is only valid in individual countries, it does not hold globally. This is an example of Simpson's paradox in statistics. Humanity as a whole is indeed stagnating or even getting stupider on average.
