Actually, intelligence of mankind cannot be measured by someone's level of degree in academics as intelligence has more to do with what one can offer to the society rather than claiming high level of education when you can't solve problems in the society or proffer solution. Inasmuch as life is concerned, acquiring high level of education is real good but it doesn't really mean because you've acquired that level of education that you're now intelligent. I see most higher degree holders bragging about how they acquired high level of education when they can't really be able to render any solution to problems in the society but yet they claim they're lettered.
The reason people who have college education cannot offer anything to society is that their colleges are too unprofessional and they promote violence. And I am not going to let this one go until colleges apologize for promoting violence. If you search for "universities promote violence", you will get links back to me because I am not going to back down from this until universities apologize for being so asinine and terrible. There is absolutely no excuse for this. A person with a university education these days is worth as much as a plastic doll with a missing arm and messy hair.

A college degree is less important now due to technology & alternative learning options. Intelligence is not solely measured by a degree as it encompasses various skills. Critical thinking, problem solving, creativity & adaptability are examples of intelligence that can be demonstrated through different means.

Technology may be a part of the problem with colleges, but we have had books for a long time that people could read from, so people have had the opportunity to teach themselves for a while now. It seems like the main issue these days is the lack of professionalism at colleges. As long as these deplorable institutions refuse to apologize for promoting violence against me, I will take a strong stand against stem. The only reason why people would opt for college degrees as the main method of demonstrating intelligence, work ethic, and moral goodness etc, is because they lack the intelligence, work ethic, and moral goodness to judge people on what they truly know and what they can truly do.

If you want to signal your intelligence, a college degree just means that you are like everyone else. Colleges have very low standards these days. They are dropping standardized testing requirements. Colleges have been promoting violence. Colleges have been promoting anti-semitism. The community colleges suck. The elite universities are just as horrible. A B.S. degree is not worth anything at all. A Ph.D. in the hard sciences is still worth a little bit. M.D.s are not worth much because biological laboratories still have not implemented all sensible safety protocols. All the medical doctors in the USA have not prevented Americans from becoming really fat. Here are some ways that you can signal your intelligence besides getting a college degree.

0. Most people are really dumb.

1. Investing in a cryptocurrency where the mining algorithm that is designed to advance science while still establishing decentralized consensus is a signal to those around you that you are intelligent enough to understand that senselessly wasting resources is a really bad idea. And investing in garbage like NFTs is a signal of your lack of intelligence. Oh? You disagree with me? That is only because you have a low level of intelligence.

2. Be pretty. Good look people tend to be more intelligent than non-good looking people.

3. There is a strong correlation between race and IQ. The Jews are the smartest. TSMC is the company that makes most of the semiconductors so that your computers actually work. This means that the people of Taiwan have a high level of intelligence. A lot of countries are poor because their people do not have a very high level of intelligence.

4. Communicate intelligently. This means that need to say things that actually make sense. And you should communicate using proper grammar, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation. It may be helpful if you are capable of communicating in multiple languages.

5. Are your schools filled with bullies? I hate to break it to you, but if your kids are too fucking afraid of going to school because they are going to get bullied, then bloody NOBODY is getting an education at that school. There is an easy way to tell if a school has a major problem with bullying. If the school had a mass shooting, that means that the shooter has been bullied relentlessly and has no options for peace. You should therefore consider anyone who ever went to a school with a mass shooting to be an unintelligent moron who is absolutely worthless to society.

6. Don't be fat. There is a correlation between obesity and intelligence. If I see a fat person, I will automatically assume with good accuracy that that fat person is also dumb. There are some exceptions. There are some smart fat people who still need to lose the weight.

If we combine these standards, we have a good way of determining who is smart and who is dumb.
