    I’m struggling here to avoid being offensive - but really, Americans often appear to me to be averaging subhuman intelligence.

    Yesterday I was reading about Latino MAGA’s who just assume Trump isn’t talking about them…

      Using “subhuman” for persons while arguing against eugenics…

      You can’t make that stuff up

      I’m not saying America is the center of world intellectualism, but you’re also getting quite a selection bias since “stupid American” stories are even popular to other Americans.

      I thought that same

      But actually, after visiting Denver I was super surprised by how friendly and normal people were

      I’d easily live there (and no, I’m not a weed smoker. Never tried it, no plans to, do doesn’t influence my decision)

      Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that. - George Carlin

      Great man, that George Carlin, great man.
