This has the enjoyable side effect of letting us ignore it for our friends but note it for our enemies I'm sure, of course, this is just a happy coincidence

one of many reasons I don't talk about IQ much (aside from not knowing mine) is that I have seen some people habitually use IQ scores as synecdoche for groups, in the sense of: "115s [pejorative description of some pattern of thought of behavior], 130s [], 145s []"

for that matter people do the bad bell curve meme although at least there they don't mean the positions on the curve in any way literally

hmm a canned line I've used a few times is "the main takeaway from having a high IQ is how obvious it makes it that you're actually primarily limited by your other personality flaws" this probably underrates the benefit of IQ but I think there's something to it

Points 4+5 go together. The average IQ determines the memes and norms of a group, or at least meaningfully limit those. And then being a member of such a group is much more important that individual differences. Here's an example of a good high IQ norm:https://twitter.com/ChanaMessinger/status/1319069018389647361 …

i think this is mostly true although i disagree with the spirit of chanas tweet. pretending not to know things has always been a fruitful endeavor for me, especially when it turns out after this exercise that i dont actually know things (usually)
