Thread for big D and his apologists

IQ tests do not even measure intelligence. That is just a learned rote response, little more sophisticated then spewing out the word 'Welfare' four times in one sentence, by somebody very heavily invested in repeating a lie, in a story which always makes them the hero. All IQ does is measure western teachable skills. Like Psychologists, very dull and ill informed, but privileged teachers and lecturers are often very heavily invested in this belief that intelligence is innate, a bit like Chomsky's daft innate grammar proposal in linguistics. The idea even, of a cultural element to intelligence is an anathema to them. That is the very serious flaw in western ideas of intelligence. Being so divorced from the environment that people of course do not realise how we can not exist apart from it, and it's influence, even if you lock yourself in a concrete tomb and just drink tea and read books. (That would though of course explain, quite how someone could develop such a narrow repetitive mindset that churned out the same rubbish for years on end.)

Abstraction is cultural and it is the development of this ability that will be far more valuable than somebody with a high IQ result and an old fashioned literal mindedness that will see them condemn humans to repeating the same mistakes until we are wiped out. Creativity in any form is hugely more valuable to a modern human, in a world in which 3 yr olds can use gestures to navigate the complex symbolism of a virtual world on a tablet.

IQ test are basically a way of saying if you are not like me then you are a cunt. No wonder sociopaths do so well in them.

What a load of waffle. If psychologists are so rote and ill informed then why do you wear your Aperger's label so proudly? 'Ooh Fenster, my darling Fenster....Sorry for snapping, it is my Asperger's you see.....it is not just BS made up by psychologists, but certainly useful so I can lick you. Oh, and YEAH I want to sexualize kids too. We are a team....high five!' You pick and choose what you want to hear.

In schools much of the testing is a form of IQ testing. The ability to solve abstract problems, to process thought logically. In turn how well you do will determine your University and in turn your life choices. It starts at a young age and is constantly monitored. Either you can do it or you can't. Not everyone is intellectually capable. Those are the facts of life, honey and not everyone is a winner.

If IQ was not important, then show me a Maths teacher, lawyer, or engineer with a low IQ. You won't. If IQ was not important we would have people with IQ's of 90 filling important, socially responsible jobs and they simply do not do that.

Your posting is as usual grammatically odd, waffly, and hateful, so you are best ignored. See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya!

I have been here for 9 years. For 8 years and a few months I never once mentioned being on the spectrum myself. That is hardly wearing a label you are so determined to beat me with proudly.







and then you see no irony on lecturing people on not being a loser

You were begging Fenster to understand why you were snappy and off and everyone knows you HATE to be on the wrong side of the Mods. It looked rather sucky sucky and desperate. You could just say 'I was being a cunt because I am one', but no, you now fall back on a convenient toolbox of the phony psychologists. You couldn't make it up. Not that I do think the toolbox is phony which is why IQ is undoubtedly one of the best tools they have for predicting outcomes and behavior.
