“Unfrotunately there is no way to measure common sense.”

I would respectfully disagree, when you meet two brothers who are past seventy and find that they are the sons of a sharecropper, one is a very successful farmer and the other is a retired army colonel who is very well off financially and both are very down to earth and pleasant company to be with I consider that evidence that both they and their sharecropper father were blessed with some common sense. I don’t know their IQ scores but I would bet that the colonel would score higher than his brother but neither would hit the genius level.

How is “intelligence” defined, anyhow? To believe what is absolutely, provably false (liberalism) seems contrary to a meaningful concept of intelligence.

Furthermore, our Western idea of intelligence is at odds with our apparent urge to commit self-genocide by not reproducing. From a genetic perspective, it simply cannot be considered intelligent on a societal basis.

Perhaps a reevaluation of intelligence is in order.

that is true...as a former left libertarian from the 70s I can attest that conservatives are much more informed than lefties who run on self congratulatory emotion

not to say they don't regurgitate good but they are one dimensional
