>>12975862Disagree, not him though. There's a lot of evidence for most people effectively being useless and the main productivity coming from say the top 10 or 20% of people. It explains why humans also took relatively long to do anything at all, because not only do you need larger populations to chance upon a few high iq individuals, but you also need the bulk of your plebs to not kill or fuck them over somehow.
Look at taxation for an example, you will find a surprisingly massive % of the population are actually net TAKERS while a small minority are net producers.
Very good argument for eugenics at a mass scale asap imo, the majority of the human population is just too dumb to keep track with the rate of progress. Current example-social media/the internet and the average plebs inability to cope with it.
