Oh no 50% of the population has a IQ less then 100! A travesty… Of math literacy
But what do you think could be the reason that has affected the cognitive abilities of the American population?
The enduring Republican attack on education and the shift to believing it’s vocational training rather than citizen development.
Wow, that whole article just shows how dumb Rogan is. He used an online IQ test to prove he’s a genius and then “researched” online to see that IQ is lower recently in the US?
The whole article is repeating what a stupid person thinks about a study. And there is nothing about what the study actually says, or what it means.
There’s lots of ways to measure intelligence, and IQ isn’t really the best one.
“0.1% is 55 and below? F*. 2% of the population is 70, Jesus! Between 55 and 70, [it’s] 2% of the population. And then, 14% of the population is 85.”
Yes. IQ is a score on a bell curve, such that the median is 100 and that one standard deviation is 15. This is EXACTLY what you’d expect given the parameters of such a curve.
I’m not even convinced they were looking at American demographics specifically, I think that they’d just stumbled onto the literal definition of the curve and didn’t understand it.
Joe Rogan: Americans are getting stupider!
Also Joe Rogan: I’ll push propaganda that supports the party that continually cuts funds to education.

Feel like he got a boat load of money and his conservative leanings came out because money. Also around when he moved to Texas.
It started as people he found interesting then he smelled his own farts for so long.
Personally, I get all my information from a stoner meat head who occasionally does a bad Sam Kinison impression and call it comedy.
Wow, I totally misunderstood the headline.
I thought that because so many people listen to that caveman that exposes alarming low IQ.
both could be true
