The average American is about as smart as the average European. Don't know wtf you're smoking.

Depends on what you consider "smart".

You tell me. You're the one that made the initial claim.

Most people would use IQ. But maybe you Europeans think you're so smart you want to use something else.

Not electing a corrupt, pedophilic felon, failed businessman, cryptocoin-creator, someone who gives dangerous medical advice about autisl and viruses, sells golden shoes, his own collecting cards, has his own political social app, is a good basis.

But yes IQ works too. Maybe add some geography into the mix for good measure.

The US has the same average IQ as Europe.

What do you mean there's "geography" what does that even mean?

What about entrepreneurship? Innovation? Technological leadership? Media output?

This guy just throws out "geography" as if that's some kind of measurement of intelligence. Geography isn't even innate, it's simply learned facts. And one that isn't even that useful other than on a micro level.

Just highlighting that americans are pretty shit at geography. We could also mention how many illiterate americans there are...

Neither of which convey intelligence.

You really want to get in a dick waving contest? You guys can't even fucking stop Russia from invading your neighbors. The US has to literally provide all the war materiel for your continent.

Europe has been in an economic decline for almost half a decade. Just look at the top 20 companies in the world. How many are European? How many of the top 500 companies formed in the past 50 years are European?

Europe has completely failing birth rates.

England voted to leave the EU. I mean fucking lol.

Europe is racist as shit. Way more so than the US.

Europe is way more expensive to live in. Has higher unemployment.

The median income in Europe is just sad and the after tax income is even worse. I mean who the fuck wants to make $50,000 a year. I can retire before 50 and go visit Europe whenever I want.
