Subtle conflation

Subtle conflation between sucess and intelligence or education and intelligence.

Hym "The only real measure of intelligence is verbal intelligence. The ability to convert abstraction into articulated thought and then speech. And is largely learned. As opposed to mathematical aptitude which is largely inate or inherent. Nice subtle conflation though. Just admit that you want everyone to be nice to retards. That's all this framing of intelligence really is. Nice to retard mean to 'bigots". That's you're conceptualization of intelligence."
