LMAO!
By all means, keep floating this trial ballon that Elon Musk isnt very bright. This is one of the dumbest talking points ever, as in scraping the very bottom of the barrel.
Obtw, congratulations on being aligned with AOC.on this, one of the great minds of this or any other time.

Never said that. Just that he wasn't the guy that built PayPal, that was Peter thiel the former CEO of PayPal who the board replaced Elon with when he left town one day

This may be a little off topic but how fricked up on drugs was Musk at CPAC yesterday?

Me: IQ above 110 Me also: Net worth below $400 billion. way, way, WAY below.... I guess Elon wins this round.
A combination of high intelligence and drive is pretty rare it seems. Musk has both. There’s something else added to that mix that makes him unique.

I only saw a few clips of Elon at CPAC. What do you suspect? Any clips of him that make you suspicious Elon was on drugs?
BTW, you know Elon has Asperger's syndrome so you may be confusing behavior of a person with Asperger's as a person on drugs. People with Asperger's syndrome are highly stressed in social settings.

an IQ of about 100 is what it takes to graduate with a bachelors from university...obviously Elon is way clear of that. IQ > 160 with certainty

LOL this groomer you replied to voted for a brain dead pedophile that had to be on a cocktail of drugs just to read off of a teleprompter in a fake meeting room with fake media members.
Seriously, the fact that any of these idiots question the intelligence of anyone is laughable.

Much people fail because they IQ too high.
My friend most smart. IQ = 175. She genius. She have world most greatest idea. But she choose not take action. I ask why? She give me 1,000 reason why idea maybe not work.
This give me wisdom. If her IQ only 95 and she have smart business idea, she take action because she do not see 1,000 reason why she fail in future. If she take action, maybe she be success! But her IQ so high, she not take any action.
My friend. Sometime, best take action. Do not worry how your idea be fail. Just take action. Even if you most high IQ, try make self low IQ for short time. Be dumb arse, then you be rich.
Absorb this dumb arse wisdom.
This is the correct answer.
So what if Musk's IQ is 110?
I'm not saying it is or isn't, I'm saying it doesn't matter what his IQ is.
Things like IQ matter to people like academics who use their superior intellect to sit around and argue irrelevant nonsense and who usually accomplish very little in the world.
i employed medical doctors in my work and they were some of the stupidest people I ever met, despite having to have high IQs to become a doctor in the first place. One in particular—who was probably on paper the most intelligent of all of them that I knew—did incredibly stupid things almost on a weekly basis.
I read an article some time back that opined that the 130-140 range was optimal for presidents. Smart enough to understand the nuance behind the crucial aspects of the presidency, but not so smart that the circle bends back full and they act like morons, such as my multiple-board certified neurologist mentioned above.
To whatever degree that theory is true, Musk probably conforms to it. I would guess his emotional makeup and ability to face risk and be ruthless in action is mostly what got him where he is today.

Amazing that two low IQ guys have come to rule the world without a shot being fired, become stupidly untouchable rich, and are shitposting lords.

I'm trying to find anything in this guy's bio that would qualify him to assess someone's IQ. No psychology. No Neuroscience. No behavioral science. No actual education discipline. Keeps going.
He is a doctor of ENGLISH and began his career as a trial attorney. Became a communications professor (We know how hard that must be). Just a quick review and seems pretty thin on any actual credential that would qualify him to assess an IQ of anyone.

I dont care. He's still a visionary.
Seth sounds extremely jealous and most likely on the spectrum.

What a loser. The dude worked out how to parallel park a frickin space shuttle. Also, his business acumen is off the charts. He's one of the smartest people alive on Earth today.
Ya, no. Elon is probably a decent coder and he has the balls to take risks in business which he absolutely gets the credit for, but his spacex engineers are the ones who parallel parked a rocket (which is basically just based around a feedback control system that we've been using to land rovers on the moon and other planets for quite some time).
If you know about tech and listen to what he says about tech, most of it is actually pretty dumb, but would sound smart to someone who doesn't know tech/engineering.
TLDR: Elon had the balls to take business risks which helped get Tesla and SpaceX where they are today, but he's no engineering genius.

Elon's had several other accomplishments, right? Tesla, Space X, the neurolink research, owning Twitter/X, etc. (I've never looked at his complete resume).
And now, the most important task of all. DOGE. I just think it's laughable when mentally insufficients like AOC start calling Musk out for not being very bright. It's obviously a desperate talking point that she and others have been given.

Seth Abramson is an unabashed musk hater and 'biographer,' whatever that means

You can find the video on Youtube.
That moment is a real testament to Musk’s humility, thoughtfulness, and grace.
Man, thanks for that. I've looked for that clip and had no idea what channel it was from.

Within the next months/years, at some point Trump will disavow knowledge of Musk. “Never heard of him.” And the zombies will eat it up.
