One seventh of the US population has an IQ of 82 or lower.
The US military will not accept anyone that tests lower than a GCT Cat 4B, which has a bottom limit of 83.
Why? Not because they can't push a broom or stack boxes... but because they require more resources to supervise, deal with the aftermath of their mistakes, etc. than they can produce. They are literally useless. Incapable of contributing.
Your experience is the sort of "thinking" such people do when abstraction is involved.
There was an old George Carlin routine where he'd go.. "think about how dumb the average person is. Now realize that half the people are dumber than that".
Yup. Got a copy when it was first published. 1998 or thereabouts.
As true today as it was then with regard to dynamics; the present situation is notably worse than it was then. The average IQ in America is shifting downward. (Bright people are having fewer kids, the can't-do's are having more)
A lot of smart people fall in that trap. The Golden mein is to understand you truly only know somethings imperfectly and don't know other things at all. This is how you keep learning and why education that is taught is called basic education... Not that it is by any stretch of means.

There was a book written by Harvard professors called, "The Bell Curve." It's Science.

Welcome to Idiocracy!
My girlfriend was tarded, shes a pilot now
IQ doesn't matter if you're a brainwashed, zombified normie.
In fact the "smarter" they are, the harder it is for them to accept or admit that they've been duped.
Arrogant ignorance is dangerous -- "if I don't know it or believe it, then it's either not true or not important."

This is a feature of the system, not a bug
