14. A lot of really smart people are actually willingly stupid because they're arrogant.

I can’t imagine someone who questions themselves on the regular believing nonsense like this. More like they absorbed propaganda and lack critical thinking skills.

First and foremost, evolution doesn’t work that way in such a short amount of time. I’ve seen Nazis use similar talking points, and, they are easy to refute. Skin color is a minor mutation that we only perceive to be more important than it really is - especially in terms of intelligence.

But, no one like this actually cares when you try to talk sense into them.
