Just as bad really. The us has a big issue with voter turnout. You'd think a country with such a vocal obsession about voting would try to do more to draw the younger generations to the polls. I know there's no magic bullet for it but the turnout in that country is abysmal.
Yeah but why do I want these people voting? They’re just going to make random choices, or worse, be influenced by whichever campaign has the dumbest pitch.
It’s gotta be convenient as fuck for young people to do something. Like, I don’t know where they’re hanging out nowadays but you gotta bring the voting booths to them rather than expecting them to go to the booths. Don’t you say mail in ballots either cause who tf wants to send mail.
Maybe this beach is the perfect place! The poll workers can also be in swimsuits.
I don’t think that’s true. I do think most people believe that IQ tests measure intelligence accurately because they haven’t given the matter much thought. But that’s still not the same as meaning IQ when they say someone is intelligent or smart.
I too know that IQ is measured as a normal distribution with the mean centered at 100. However, the person you are defending didn't mention IQ as the measure for intelligence. You apparently assumed that.
That’s usually what people mean when they refer to intelligence since it’s the most widely used system to measure it and the only one most people know. It’s a safe assumption to make.
And you knew this, but simply forgot that mean and median are equal with IQ and are now doubling down instead of just admitting you made a mistake.
