| 1 | Still waiting for a response..The thing is, we can accept that as fact, because it doesn't matter. All of these things exist within societal constraints and only serve to approximate something relative to intelligence that provides people with success in each of them. Basically, being amazing at chess doesn't mean you're intelligent, it just means that you're good at chess, and the conditions existed for you to be good at chess. Maybe there's some related fields where that also serves you but we can't point to that and say, … | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 11:04 AM |
| -2 | Still waiting for a response..Hi scrotal tearing, what argument was he making against my point that every game, profession or otherwise exists within the societal constraints placed on it and so it is not adequate to use these as evidence of intelligence when intelligence does not have any end, while these things do? Do you have a response either? Intelligence is a means to achieve ends. Until you give me a reason to value the ends of certain professions or games of skill, then fuck off lol. Heres some help, you can't, which… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 09:43 AM |
| -10 | Still waiting for a response..I think you need to reread what I said. Bye. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 06:43 AM |
| -14 | Still waiting for a response..I am saying that because you simply cannot know. You can only measure IQ which only measures an aptitude toward ends that we decide matter. That is not intelligence. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 06:06 AM |
| 1 | Still waiting for a response..Beauvoir addresses this but again, this also doesn't fall outside the scope of what I just said. Edit to be very clear: no job, intelligence measuring test, game of skill, will ever fall outside of the society it exists within, such that there is no way you could measure intelligence of any form without it being relative to that society and the ends it aims to achieve. This makes attempts to see who or what is more or less intelligent banal and misguided in the first place. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 05:43 AM |
| 11 | Still waiting for a response..IQ is only intelligence insofar as it is relative to some end. Take a society that prioritises different ends, and IQ takes on a different meaning and intelligence becomes relative to that end. Trying to find intelligence differences between any group will always raise this issue and there's really no point. Simone de Beauvoir expands on this really well in the second sex. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 05/10/21 05:13 AM |
