Groupthink vs Intelligence

Intelligent people think, unintelligent people have allegiances



In this short video, Stefan Molyneux explains how intelligence works and why unintelligent people tend to be overconfident while intelligent people have self-doubt.

Allegiances are an easy substitute for thinking for those who fear an autonomous existence, which is sadly the case for many people who have been through the western mass education system.
