Let’s lower your iq

[officials-of-hell]

Something I actually really hate is when people use “room temperature IQ” as an insult. Especially in the case of someone being reactionary and conservative (how it’s used by leftists). The conservative use of it is not much better because on that side of the aisle the phrase is used to imply that you have a low IQ for supporting the rights of your fellow man, but I digress.

The phrase is always used in a way to say that arguing with someone whose intelligence you perceive as low is a waste of time, or to imply that only “stupid” people are reactionary. And that’s just plain ableist and nasty.

I’ve had so many more productive and civil conversations about serious world issues with people who quite literally have the room temperature IQ implied by that insult than people who have average or self-proclaimed high IQs (which in most cases, no your IQ is not actually high. You Dunning-Kruger’d yourself). In conversations about serious world issues with people who have average IQs (like myself) they have actually been far quicker to be dismissive and reactionary than when I’m taking about those same issues with my lower IQ friends.

And I’m not saying that either side of things is better or worse. I’m simply saying that using “room temperature IQ” as an insult is incredibly fucking ableist. I’m also saying that in my personal experience with people who actually have low IQs that it doesn’t take a average/high IQ to have a civil conversation or to understand that people in this world are suffering. My most left leaning friends are intellectually disabled. Pretty significantly so at that. Equating high IQs to good morals is just as harmful as equating high empathy to good morals. You don’t need either of those things to be a good person and using “room temperature IQ” as an insult to those you don’t agree with implies just that.

Tagging @monarch-my-love and @sesamecrackers as they are both intellectually disabled, but any other ID folks that see this and are able to give their input to this please do! I really want to hear thoughts on this, and I hope I worded everything well on this issue.

intellectually disabled people who may want transition anyway but cant because of parents, carers, care teams

intellectually disabled people who are minimally able or unable to use pronouns for others and for themselves

intellectually disabled people who transitioning but face seclusion from queer community for have intellectual disability therefore seen as "unable of actually taking this choice"

intellectually disabled people who just get and feel othered when comes to queer community.

we are not your enemy, can be queer too, and are queer too, we deserve be understood and not seen as enemy because of things genuinely struggle with so this pride month please remember we in this together, everyone, including disabled people who's capability to understand and apply things impaired in any way and may require extra long time or understanding within these topics.

« [I]t's extraordinary to me that Donald Trump keeps recycling his "low IQ" insult. This is from the dumbest president EVER to sit at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. And there's not even a close second. »

— Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY-08) as heard at C-SPAN.

Yep, most of the time Trump waddles between incoherent and semi-coherent. When Donald was a kid his smart older sister was presumably bribed to do his homework for him. So his stupidity can only partially be attributed to dementia. Being a dumbass is a lifelong affliction for him.

Trump tries to deflect attention away from his brainlessness by calling people he doesn't like "low IQ". Because he uses this insult disproportionately at African-Americans, there's more than a hint of racism involved.

It tells us about Capitol Hill Republicans that they continue to pander to a notorious narcissistic dumbass. Do they think that voters haven't noticed?
