If your government keeps secrets from you - IT'S NOT YOUR GOVERNMENT.

@citizenzero Your government has to keep secrets from you : some things you just can't understand without study + misunderstandings create wars. ?

@citizenzero “Can anyone seriously argue that our country would be better off if the public received all of its information through official channels alone?” : yes, I can.

Check out the #GaussFigure of human's intelligence, and you'll understand why people should not have access to all info. 😑

@Ellz_n Read the first answer to the question posed at this link: https://www.quora.com/Does-human-intelligence-follow-a-Gaussian-distribution
@citizenzero Ok checking it out right now.

@citizenzero I see no contradiction here : he says the gaussian tails should be fatter - but on a global scale, the curve still approaches its asymptote.

If you're thinking about the high IQs in China, yeah, big number, but I can mention other areas of the world still retarded (we dont mention them often, it's risky :x, maybe you know what I mean). It doesnt change the repartition, as independent variables they tend to the Gaussian distribution / #normaldistribution of nature

@citizenzero Plus it includes the different types of intelligence. Ofc we could have multiple curves for each and every kind of qualitatively different intelligence (not quantitatively), it still would be gaussians among gaussians.
@Ellz_n Well, I guess we just have a difference of opinion. Agree to disagree and all that. Have a wonderful day.
@Ellz_n The only ones afraid of an informed and educated public are the ones who stand to profit off of their ignorance.

@citizenzero Yes + the ones who fear dramas/civil wars/anarchy from misunderstandings.

Look #JamesDamore fired from Google because his opinion became public and the public found it sexist. -I read it, he made it clear, his purpose was the contrary.

"My larger point is that we have an intolerance for ideas and evidence that don’t fit a certain ideology.I’m also not saying that we should restrict people to certain gender roles; I’m advocating for quite the opposite: treat people as individuals, not as just another
member of their group (tribalism)."

Still, newspaper are killing him.
