This is hogwash. It's incel and eugenic reasoning wrapped up all together. Not every smart person (or even most) are engineers, and of the ones that are they don't all move to tech hubs, and the ones that do not all of them can't get laid. And I'll give you a great reason why it's hogwash, the "brilliant" engineers that can't get laid in Singapore are the same "brilliant" engineers that can't get laid in their home town | |||||||||||||||||

I agree with you that STEM don't hold a monopoly on intelligence. > engineers that can't get laid in Singapore are the same "brilliant" engineers that can't get laid in their home town Maybe so, but not for the same reasons. Back in their home town, they cannot vibe with anyone because the few who might be compatible have long since left. In a STEM hotspot, they go to an event and meet compatible people, but it's 11 guys for every 3 girls, so unless they are top dog in that room, they aren't going to score. | |||||||||||||||||

We can blame the individual for the cost we've outsourced into him. When he collapses under that load, we can attribute it to personal shortcomings. Some people survive, even thrive, in the current environment, after all. We've coalesced a plurality of games into a single one, and in a sense, it works great. We have our smartphones, AI, online shopping, and targeted advertising. Notepad now has Copilot built right into it, after all. That wasn't going to happen by now if we took the human psyche as a given and built around that. | |||||||||||||||||

It’s the same nonsense as people going “Idiocracy is a documentary.“ Of course none of them think they’re the idiots. | |||||||||||||||||
