That sounds like a conspiracy theory. Governments aren’t controlled by a few people, they’re controlled by many rich people who all want to stab each other in the back to make an extra dime.

Some of them may be crazy trying to destroy the education of the populous, but certainly others in power want an educated populace.

Not just you, but the creator of the IQ test himself, and most experts

US American*

Were pretty humble down here in Mexico.

If you’re not sure, you should do nothing…

I don’t know why you would downvote it. Does it spread hate or misinformation? If not, dont downvote

OK, so I guess you’d agree that the people who control the US government are either unintelligent or very bad at their joba

The purpose isn’t to change the past, but to prevent it from happening again

Yes. We cannot measure intelligence. We can only measure culturally-relevant knowledge

Generally, its in the interest of a country to have knowledgeable people. Its an investment that pays back well in $$$

Qualitatively, I argue that a country that doesn’t allocate funds to make their population knowledgeable is not an intelligent country, regardless od what knowledge they try to teach (be it the three sisters or geography or mathematics or whatever)

I think that’s correct, but I’m failing to see the need for a person sitting in a wheelchair to be able to approach a bench on a pad.

Are they expecting people sitting in a wheelchair to be able to transition to sitting on the bench for some reason?

That’s way bigger than the footprint. Usually you have big level concrete areas around doors for wheelchairs, for example.

Accessibility is important. Couldn’t they modify them to meet accessibility standards?

You really don’t want to use pip. That’s how you download malicious code.

Isn’t it always postfix? Not because of the software, but because of other clients and other servers.

True. Unfortunately, we don’t have a way to measure intelligence that isn’t inherently racist.

Thats a really good idea for a gift. I usually buy condoms.

Says experts. This is why its illegal to use IQ tests for placements in many places. Because its racist. It does not measure intelligence.

I’m not sure you understand how governments work. PBS decided to make this show. They can’t change the school funding.

I think a globe, but sure

Is not “we have most if the world’s wealth, we’re aware that 25% of our populationvm can’t find the biggest ocean in the world in a map, and we also won’t allocate funds to schools to fix this” a sign of low intelligence?

What does DPRK stand for?

Just because something stands for something, doesn’t mean it is that thing

Like, that’s the biggest ocean and biggest country in the world. I wonder how many in the 75% just randomly pointed at blue and got lucky at identifying the Pacific Ocean.

The actual number of people who didn’t know where is the Pacific Ocean must be higher, because of the ones who guessed and got lucky.
