>>15441793i fucking hate him
>>15441799List your genius. I am ready.
>>15441799Out of those only Kaku sorta qualify in my view. He's the only one out of those that pretends to be something he's not and overselling his brand hard. The others including Op are just good communicators and/or entertainers. Being obsessed at targeting pop-sci communicators like you're exposing something is what sends out some pretty strong midwit vibes imo.
>>15441799Kaku is literally the smartest one of that bunch

Activists are taking over prestigious journalshttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508REMOVE-023REMOVE-02576REMOVE-9>Since my academic paper on Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria was published last month, it has been downloaded more than 38,000 times and is ranked in the top percentile of similar articles in terms of online attention. One might think that the academic society associated with the journal — the International Academy of Sex Research — would be delighted. Instead, its officers are trying to cancel the article.>Across the industrialised West, there has been an explosion of gender dysphoria among adolescent girls in recent years. In England, for example, annual referrals for child and adolescent gender dysphoria treatment grew in the 10 years between 2011-12 to 2021-22 from 250 (mostly boys) to 5,000 (mostly girls). In the United States, no one is keeping track, but the signs are the same. Two explanations have been given for this trend, and they have provoked a bitter controversy. The first holds that increased tolerance of transgender people has allowed transgender youth to come out earlier and in greater numbers. People who believe this also tend to assume we should not question children and adolescents who declare that they are transgender but should help them if they want to start their transition.>The second explanation, called “rapid onset gender dysphoria” (ROGD), suggests that, for poorly understood reasons, adolescent and young adult females are susceptible to a socially contagious false belief that they are transgender. Especially susceptible are girls with pre-existing emotional problems who have been exposed to the ideas that transgender people are common, and that an underlying and unrecognised transgender identity can cause emotional problems only curable by gender transition.
>>15441793What an irony that the "midwit kings" are never midwits themselves!

>>15441799Rogan isn't required to be a genius to run a podcast. He is required to be a smart enough to make good questions wich seems to be the case most of the time.
>>15441799Rogan may be a 'midwit' but he is open minded and thinks about things logically. From what I've seen of him at least
>>15454835try and see less of him, the guy is a professional actor, their profession is being deceptive and wielding influence via deception. in ancient rome actors were considered the lowest for of life, beneath prostitutes, garbage haulers and the people to cleaned the public bathrooms

Neil is 145 joe Rogan is 125 Kaku is 170 plus bill is 135 they are differently not midwits also the average iq on sci is 140 so it makes sense the average person would be perceived as dumb
>>15460848>the average iq on sci is 140the average iq on sci is 100, just like everywhere else. scientists are not unusually intelligent people, thats just a hollywood meme. if scientists were smart then they would be outputting noteworthy and valuable science, which they do not, they produce fake vaccines for nonexistent viral epidemics and dark matter and other stupidity.
>>15442430far below average intelligence, she failed out of high school
>>15441793anyone involved in science these days is of average or below average intelligence. peer review keeps intelligent people out of the system as it was intended to do
>>15457080No he doesn't, he equivocates "right" in the sense of having a superior outcome with "right" in the sense of correct on the question you're both inquiring into.Sneaky rhetorical tricks like this originate from a "non-central fallacy", and this is when an event x is classed under a category y as a non-standard instance (in the sense of not matching the connotations typical of the members of the category) and inferring a typical connotation as holding for x. They are very convincing when used in a fast and loose manner because it takes advantage of our fast-and-loose inductive tendencies and representational fallacies, abstacting from unique and different situations and collapsing them into an abstraction.
>>15461619This isn't true, the average IQ on lesswrong is confirmed 140 from multiple tests. Here, I don't know what it would be, but I suppose less inferring from the lack of comprehension of basic real analysis, normie conspiracy threads, crank threads, quack threads, consciousness threads, etc. Though there is probably a higher than usual number of people in higher education here, but I don't know why they would choose to hang out here seeing as though this board is mostly dead.
>>15447776>>15452686Noam Chomsky is at least politically a midwit, but didn't he do novel work in linguistics on generative grammar? Though I'm only parroting the words because I've never studied linguistics.
>>15464835>the average IQ on lesswrong is confirmed 140 from multiple testsIt was created by Yudkowsky I don't believe this for a second.
bill nye is a spineless shill, no idea why science faggots love this guy so much. can anyone explain his popularity?
>>15465701IFLSers are idiots
I can't believe soience faggots really worship this clownish TV huckster, how low IQ do you have to be to do that?
>>15442141none of them say anytging if value
the nazis of sub-40 iqs are going to teach us intelligence over here
>>1546594080-110 IQ is the range which is incapable of differentiating between on screen entertainment and IRL life
