In many cases, but also not in many others. http://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/?p=5788 Also certain legal thresholds (IQ < 70/75, changes legal rights).

For me "treating as equals" would refer to legal rights, and the inherent fluffy human "value". Everyone discriminates in all parts of life.

Low IQ also grants immunity from legal persecution, at least in some cases (for US, immunity to death penalty at <70 IQ).
