Every time I read that some indisputably brilliant person (e.g., Alan Dershowitz) admits to having voted for Biden, then I view that as evidence that they’re not really all that bright.

Journalism is dead, but there should still be some investigative souls who will do some digging and find out who have became billionaires from the climate change hoax and the insidious, malevolent and criminal pandemic overkill.

Why have so many bright Americans caved in to swallow senseless ideologies? When did they stop thinking for themselves instead of losing themselves in groupthink? Where are the mavericks, the innovators, the rebels in our government?

Are You Really that Smart If You Can’t Recognize B.S.?

My husband, who was a Marine during the Vietnam War, was always talking about the IQ levels of fellow soldiers, and he would express surprise at the low level of intelligence of some draftees. We would then get into arguments on the validity...

Thinking is unnatural, unpleasant and laborious.

Well, only the retarded vote Republican.

All the smartest people say so.
 
The OP asks how stupid are Americans? And then promptly goes on to source americanthinker. I am sure the irony of this escapes him, but damn, this is going to be one laughable thread. :ROFLMAO:

American's aren't as stupid as they are intellectually lazy. Far too willing to believe whatever they are told by one group or the other. I find liberals to be worse about not bothering to fact check, and that includes the media.

I'd say that you have an opinion.

Some people have other opinions; it does not make them STUPID. But it suggests you are one dimensional, non binary and closed minded.

Can you cite one thing good about Biden?

I love this quote:

I’m willing to bet that there are more high IQ geniuses among the ‘deplorables’ than there are among the pink ***** hat-wearing Hillary supporters who broke down in tears in 2016.​

and I'd take that bet, but Colon would never pay.

Nevertheless, it is a great example of gaslighting, and the sweet, nutritious lib-prog tears are falling.

MAGA.

Hmmm, the liberals are worse, are they. I guess it is liberals who:

Believe in rigged elections
Believe space lasers start forest fires
Believe there is a Globalist conspiracy to create a new world order
Believe that climate is just weather
Believe that vaccines contain chips to monitor us
Believe that minorities will "replace" whites
Believe Jesus was born white and blue-eyed
Believe gay people are "grooming" kids
Believe that teachers have a socialist agenda
Believe that immigrants are rapists and drug dealers
Believe that the DOJ, the FBI, the MSM, and the courts are ALL out to get them
Believe sources like Breitbart, AmericanThinker, Infowars, and what some guy on Youtube

Yup, them thar liberals are one dumb bunch, ain't they :LOL:

We are not in the habit of taking political advice from Russians.

I mean, aside from Trump and his pals, but he's gone.

Yup it is them liberals who want to give them thar tax breaks to the rich and want to kill that thar socialist program called health care and it is them thar liberals who want to send their hard earned $$ to Donald Trump because he is promisin' he can MAGA.
 
Americans are not stupid but damn sure are ignorant simply because they: Let others do the thinking for them...and are lazy regarding learning
what-the-hell-is-going-on. A few studies have shown that Americans are SLOW to change their mind after confronted with new data.
Personally, I'd like to shake them by the shoulders and yell "Damn it! You don't have to put up with expensive health care and lousy time off from work
and numerous other things in life" "You deserve better..Wake the hell up"

Well, if you are serious, and you really would take THAT bet, I have a lot in Florida, prime real estate, beautiful landscape, that I am eager to unload cheap, would you be interested?

As with the vast majority in the MAGAsphere, I am dumb as dirt, but not nearly dumb enough to buy land in Florida.

In any case, Colon would never pay. It is a MAGAsphere maxim promoted by our genius, Trump, to not pay the money one owes. How do you think he became a multi-billionaire?

MAGA
 
Of course, I do not know the answer to the question.

But I am guessing that Americans are no less intelligent than other nationalities.

I am guessing that the businessman Donald J. Trump won (barely) in 2016 because a lot of Americans were sick and tired of the rioting during the previous 8 years.

Of course, they were intelligent enough to keep their mouths shut in public, but once they got in the voting booth, they let go.

I guess that in November, we will find out how "intelligent" the American people are.

In a sense, it will be a referendum on the current Administration that assures us that the economy is doing well and that the border is secure and that violent crime is being hyped by those meanies at FOX.

I don't even believe in sides, but I'm pretty sure that the conservative mind tends to be duller than the liberal one... almost by definition.

The conservative mind knows what is true and resists change.

But the only way to learn new stuff is to be uncertain of truth and to seek out new ways of seeing.

Certainly afflicts all political sides, but moreso with conservatives in my experience.

Most everyone is like that. It's a human trait which has some benefits.

But I agree with you. What good American would vote for Donald Trump if they knew all the data?
