In the Veritasium video about IQ they said that the American military actually has limits on how many people with below average IQ they can recruit. They found out that those people had a higher chance of dieing and needed way more training, so less people with higher IQ were better for the military success.

It’s pretty obvious if you’re not some armchair reactionary who thinks the average person enlists to kill brown people.
You mean the service members who are reading out wiring schematics and fixing advanced electronic warfare systems can’t be TOTAL MORONS?!? But… But… But… I thought the military was all just dipshits with guns? You mean most of them have to actually be smart?!?
The people who criticize military personnel for their intelligence probably wouldn’t even score high enough on the ASVAB to do half the jobs available. Test isn’t even that fucking hard, either.
