    Extending your line of thinking: knowing the average person’s intelligence, understand that there are 4 billion people more stupid.

    At what percentile do we get to a person who is not an utter imbecile?

      Ahh now you’re thinking like Thanos. Or maybe Ultron.

      Humanity is a species of upright locusts that never socially evolved beyond our cave brains. Capitalism dangles a shiny new thing every so often to keep the masses distracted and intellectually diffuse, while a small cabal of insanely wealthy cretins gleefully destroys our planet.
