The study:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S016028962200023X
The stated purpose:
we investigated whether individuals with IQs ≤ 90 who completed college experienced the same social and economic benefits higher-IQ college graduates did.
The hilarious accidental money shot:
Although most individuals with IQs ≤ 90 did not have a college degree, the rate at which they completed college had increased approximately 6-fold in men and 10-fold in women relative to rates in the previous generation.
So the researchers were trying to instill confidence in their sample size, but they inadvertent revealed what most of us have suspected for years: colleges are rubber stamping degrees for stupid people in general and stupid women in particular.
Given average white IQ is ten points higher than 90 while average black IQ is five points lower, it’s probably safe to assume that most of these cognitively challenged college grads are black women a.k.a. the most insufferable and belligerent demographic on the planet.
We’re fast tracking literal retards into positions of authority and influence because muh racism. Bodes well!
A lot are still white women too. The amount of <90 IQ white women getting joke majors is astounding. The worst part about it is that most of them think they're smart simply because they got a degree. The ego inflation in these women tends to make them completely intolerable to be around.
There really is a specific type of 90 IQ woman who is good at rote memorization, note taking and staying out of trouble and just excels in this modern world. This is such a common phenomenon there should be a word for this type of person.

Potential automation.
This is almost certainly not true. Obviously there are many white female college grads who are incredibly stupid, but there’s a massive difference between an indoctrinated 100-IQ leftist and a sub-90 IQ literal retard. In order to qualify for the latter category, a white woman would have to be 10 IQ points below the average. A black woman, on the other hand, could be sub-90 IQ and above average for her demographic. When you think about it, it’s extremely likely that most of the dummies being studied here are black women.
IIRC, in middle-class households, black girls don't have the statistical propensity for criminality at black males do. As women have a narrower IQ variance, I dunno if black American women average closer to 86 or 100. Of course anything beneath what is currently 105 iq is dismally inadequate for a sustainable civilization.
Dude have you actually interacted with black women? They are very loud and aggressive compared to other races. Yelling, arguing, and fighting are so common in black girls that black dudes don't even want them.
Imagine a hard day slanging crack rocks on the streets and you come home and Latisha starts hollering. Smh these poor brothers
I live in a white/hispanic location, the very few black women here are indistinguishable from white women. There is a heap of hispanic trailer trash (I.E. aggressive, not merely being poor).
90+ IQ peoples are still usable in society. Not "valuable", or "useful", but "usable". They're still valid sources of simplistic labor that has not yet been automated: Walmart greeters, day-laborers, farm harvesters, chicken catchers, and with the aid of modern guidance technology delivery drivers. A society can be sustainable with a large amount of these types of simplified labor jobs still existing. Obviously higher IQ would be better, even in these jobs, but "usable".
They don't directly commit violent crimes, but the way they brought up their niglets certainly was a contributing factor. Their petty crimes such as theft and welfare frauds are usually not prosecuted
Basically they're the perfect cross-section for affluenza.
They average below that and you know that.
it's playing with semantics. just by sheer volume, only 6% of the population is black women. over 30% is white non-hispanic. the average american black is around 85 IQ. white women average 100 IQ. but being 5x larger, at 1std dev out, they're still going to have more people in the white female group.
I'm specifically wondering if black American women are only half a deviation below the average, not at 100.
No wonder we have a lot of idiots falling for leftist nonsense.
Lol it's not white women. It's other races. Whites are already a minority under 25 in this country but you point the finger at huwyte women again.
It can't be the sub saharans or 5 foot tall Mayan imports from the south guys! It's the white women!
That's obviously a problem too. I'm a white supremacist but I'm not going to pretend white women have unicorn farts. If their average IQ is 100 and we have a normal distribution, I suspect there's going to be a significant amount of white women <90 IQ also. I've interacted with plenty in my life. The issue is that post-secondary has become an extension of high school for a lot of people. I'd say about 80% of people getting post-secondary educations don't need one and the educations are actually wasted on these people, especially women.
I just wanted everyone to not ignore this problem also. Even if we deported every non-white from the country, the IQ average of university grads is going down because we have too many university grads. When you expand the total quantity then IQ comes down.
I remember being remarkably startled and disappointed at how low-bar the expectations and material in college were compared to high school. And that was around 15 years ago. It actually managed to kill a lot of my motivation since I didn't feel challenged and it became clear how much of the entire experience was a pointless gatekeeping process with a lot of mindless busy work.
The issue is the intelligence involved. Education is designed to promote memorization which is the least useful form of "intelligence". Actual people that think do worse in university than people who can't think but can regurgitate.
You make good points and I agree with them all.
There is still some intra group competition for higher education spots, regardless of any affirmative action.
White women in unis are likely above 100, around 110. Exactly because there is a lot of them comparatively, there's is no need to let in but the smartest. And this fits perfectly with their behavior. They're leftists, redditors, the PMC, they act like knowitall midwits not like retards.
We let in 10x more <90iq women today, simply means that our diversity efforts are 10x what they used to be, which sounds about right, I don't think the diversity push was as intense 10 years ago.
You're thinking of actual good universities like in the top 100. There's thousands of schools that offer post secondary whose degrees would be in this study who don't come anywhere near the quality of education as these higher level schools. The women getting psychology degree from ranked 5000 school butt fuck in the middle of no where don't have 110 IQ, even the white girls.
Take that YouTube video for the red pants girl who thought she was smart. Her IQ was 112 and she had a PhD from a top 30 ranked university in science. Again, imagine with sociology degree major from joke degree mill school has for IQ, it's not 110, even for the white girls.
You forgot about affirmative action, which extremely disproportionately, among women, let white women get admittance, not non-white women.
Considering white women made up the majority of accepted women, x10 sub-90 IQ women points most strongly at white women.
That doesn't suggest that white women have low IQ, just that low IQ ones were being accepted more than ever before.
The good news is, some industries are starting to shift more towards proof of ability and proof of capacity instead of just rubber-stamping applicants with a "relevant" degree.
The bad news is, it's not universal, it's not happening fast enough, and it won't save us from the drowsy poultry.
A demo reel is easy to show off for film, but not middle management
I'm seeing more and more professional certification grifts as well.
The most often happens via experience, however.
It doesn't matter how bad of a job you did as long as you meet X time requirement.
It doesn't matter how bad the things in your portfolio did as long as a known company backed it in some way.
Failing upward is a pretty common trend now.
You can hire based on whatever you want, but if you get even a bit successful you'll get sued, because lack of equity is proof of discrimination.
"But your honor, I followed a blind process, and hired just based on basic competence and not being a retard" isn't going to help you.
This is extra revealing when you consider how the bellcurves work in the sexes also when it comes to IQ.
Women cluster more closely around 100, there is a smaller standard distribution. Looking at a german study male SD is 16.2, female is 13.2. 22% of women are below 90IQ but 27% of men are. The bottom 20% this is who they're looking at here.
This means that they're absolutely scraping the bottom barrel of women here, and we're still seeing a 10fold increase. These people aren't suited and can't be happy, they're taking on debt for nonsense degrees that they aren't suited for, or that are meaningless to the point where even the bottom 20% can achieve it.
it does also start to explain why its fewer men too though. Because those men are down at 80 and 70 even, rather than clustering up at 'just under 90' as closely as women are. This is a rare care where you'd 'naturally' expect to see this sort of thing with more women than men 'excelling' (well, if having sub 90iq people in uni is natural).
The explanation for fewer men in this low IQ range is far simpler: almost two thirds of college undergrads are women now. It’s really just proportional.
And again, they’re not exactly scraping the bottom of the barrel because these are average IQ black women. Non-Jewish euro whites are currently underrepresented in college admissions. They are definitely still mostly leftist idiots, but they are not likely to be low IQ.
IIRC, Trump won Whites with bachelor's degrees and "some college." It's the higher degrees where people go far more leftist.
I would dispute this somewhat...
But then again, University here is not quite the same as college is for you guys (freshman year isn't really a thing, for example. We have to do the equivalent of that year's general ed in High School)...
But yeah,"some college" at least partly includes people like me, who've probably also been burned by the system and largely bummed out of it, ha.
Which part?
Even here in kia2 anti white racism is the standard position to take when addressing any issue. The first comment is all about dumb white women when in reality it's explainable by simply looking at the foreigners being imported and pushed into universities and comparing to their iq. Spoiler, their iq is low af compared to Europeans/NE Asians.
You're ignoring the fact that affirmative action disproportionately got white women into colleges, not non-white women, and even almost surgically excluded asians.
This doesn't mean white women are stupid, just that white women from the bottom of the barrel were being picked up far more often than others.
It's because we are importing stupid people from around the world. That includes their women.
Add in the push to make all college free and degrees will be pretty worthless outside of skilled things like STEM. I’m surprised companies don’t just go back to aptitude tests. They are fair across the board
College was a proxy for IQ tests, which I think are illegal.
Because those have been made extremely legally risky by the gov accepting the premise that disparate impact is defacto proof of racism.
Disparate Impact Theory has been the most successful rebranding of communism to date, and it isn’t close.
Air Traffic Control in Australia still does but from what I hear that's not the case for ATC in America. I wouldn't fly in America knowing what I know
I have a relative that used to be an airline pilot before he returned in the mid-2010s. He advises those he knows to avoid flying because they're letting the diversity hires fly. He also had to tell his son (who got his pilot license and has tons of hours flying small craft) to give up even thinking of flying as a career because he's a white male. The son is probably going back to college for something else since that route's closed to him but he's in a holding pattern for the moment.
Just wait till the boomers really start dying off, things will be falling apart fast
When I did my ATC training there was 1 single female in the training group of 20 and she failed the mid-term examination. Out of the 20 of us only 5 of us actually passed the course. That was when they took Air Safety seriously
I see what you did there.
Bravo
And I assume you're talking about before the airlines started screwing over the pilots who didn't want to take the "vaccine" even.
Still he could still find a niche as a non-airline pilot somewhere. Might need to be wiling to move across country (or outside the country) though, which is the case in a lot of industries.
Absolutely this. If he gets his ATPL then the world is his oyster. Just because the US aviation industry has gone woke doesn’t mean other countries aren’t in need of pilots. With an ATP you’re desirable in almost any country, then if you find an airline willing to hire you often times they’re willing to help pay for type ratings.
He should just say he's Mexican or tranny
we use tests for almost every role in the company now. it's just not even close.
we don't hire libart losers, but it's just massively more effective.
If you don't mind my asking, whatncompany is that? Might just apply if they are testing for capability rather than credentialing or shaking the right hands.
would love to promo it but not doxing myself.
Anyway to message? I would love to work somewhere that takes actual productivity and capability into consideration.
Can you give me a hint on the industry then?
More like they were handed those benefits on a silver platter by DIE obsessed companies because they're part of a favored demographic.
Thankfully most of them aren't in STEM (yet), but the social sciences, bolstered by the facade of 'authority' given to by these degrees, are horribly destructive in their own right.
I'm seeing plenty of retards in STEM, at least in CSCI/CIS-related courses.
I imagine its plenty worse in non-STEM though.
This is largely th culprit for wokeness at many of the giant cultural corporations. They simply vacuum up each crop of new college grads, trusting that their degrees and they're respective institutions mean something. Before you know it all of HR and half of management couldn't even cognize an alternative philosophy or interpretive framework. All rhetoric and art becomes trite messaging and politics.
I wonder where I fit into this...
I've never done an IQ test, but I don't think I'm... "Dumb", as such.
But I'm abysmal at college. I can ace exams (if I study enough), and I can ace in-class tests (sometimes) without studying, but all the bullshit around assignments, referencing "properly", the ins and outs of research, group work, attendance, lab reports - I fucking suck at that shit...
No matter how hard I try, I'm just... Not motivated by/for it, and I can't seem to get much better.
Which, as you point out, kind of sucks when you realise that the idiots you are surrounded by are doing so much better than you are...
Maybe I'm just stupid (though I did well at school without trying, not that this means anything), or maybe... There's more to it than that.
Doesn't feel good at all, though. I'll admit to that much...
You overuse "..." in your text, but you have generally solid grammar, and even have the forethought to include useless flourishes such as italicizations. You also used quotation marks properly, and never missed an apostrophe in a very apostrophe-laden post. I think it's fairly safe to say you're above the average, at least a little bit, in IQ.
Haha thanks, I appreciate this.
Yeah, writing and grammar are not things I'm terrible at, but I've always been pretty good at languages, so...
I guess it depends on what/how one tests! I did well on the military recruiting aptitude test. That's the closest thing I have directly done, I guess.
But yeah, not good at the whole "doing Uni" thing, which seems to be my tradeoff, I suppose...
Jumping through hoops to achieve a long-term goal is perhaps not my strong suit.
Its also important to acknowledge that, unless you have a learning disability (including retardation) that impacts your IQ, then IQ is mostly a measure of speed and memory than anything else. A high IQ person is not inherently "smart"; humans still have to train themselves to acquire and retain knowledge/information. This is why people put such high importance on recognizing gifted individuals when they are still very young.
Think of a computer and its hardware. A bottom of the barrel computer can do pretty much the same things as a computer full of flagship components, provided there are no defects and infinite time available...but the flagship PC will do said things much faster and 'recall' things from memory better, which opens up additional capabilities.
At the same time, if the supercomputer doesn't actually make use any of its advantages or has certain inefficiencies, it'll look almost the same as the bottom of the barrel computer.
If you're worried about your focus, time management, etc., you might want to consider explicitly working on those aspects, or even seeing a behavioral health specialist, especially if you're potentially an undiagnosed adult with autism.
If you end up getting a neuro-psyche exam at the request of the specialist, you'll find out your IQ.
Intelligence is one thing, discipline(and time management) is another.
While I've a few regrets about college, the one thing I don't regret is having to force myself to effectively manage my time and effort in a disciplined fashion to get the level of grades I was aiming for.
Turns out, I could get alot of stuff done just by keeping to a very strict schedule and forcing myself to get shit done.
The things you've described are there for the retards to dilute abysmal exams. Group work is boiled down to "one person does a typical assignment alone and the rest coast on reading their presentation". I've had professors divide a lecture hall class into four groups and the only graded non-test assignments be "group discussions". I'm a very odd case because I started college in the 00's, dropped out, worked in the real world, and came back to do a bachelor's in the '20s. Shit. Got. BAD. I rode the fucking short bus in middle school and I didn't learn anything new in my required math course for college. It was all review for me, and for most of the 17-18 year olds they were asking questions like it was their first time hearing it.
Edit: Example from this semester of how dumbed down and impossible-to-fail things are now. A professor explained her criterion for a grading homework and if you get half of it right you get a 100%. Every missed question beyond that is a -5 off the grade. So if you get 1/10 questions right you get a fucking 80. They are really trying to just push everyone through.
not to mention.. our population getting dumber by mixing. gonna have to assume 200 IQ person breeding with a 90 IQ person results in an individual that will be somewhere inbetween.
Ya basically some half nigga retard isn't going to be the same high iq as two Japanese having a Japanese or two Austrians having an Austrian.
Still waiting on those African astronauts to show up.
White women were the single largest beneficiary of affirmative action, and by a large margin, IIRC.
Also of note is that affirmative action actually prevented many Asian men and women from being accepted.
Colleges are disproportionately graduating white female retards, not black. IIRC black students were still more likely to attend majority black colleges than more prestigious ones.

Reminds me a lot of Maria from Jubilee’s Intelligence video. She thought she was a genius because she was so edumacated only to place last among the participants.
