  • My take is that high IQ correlates to “left”, but extreme high IQ doesn’t mean “extreme left” (for a lack of a better expression).

    Basically, your ideology won’t be an outlier just because your IQ is very high. It will only tend to be less conservative than those with lower IQ.

    I would rather see the opposite, how extreme ideologies correlate to very low IQ.

    Not a super fan of IQ in general and this story is probably massaging our biases a bit too much for me to lean too much into it with limited understanding.
