“Individuals were deemed to be in the top one percent of ability if they attended an undergraduate or graduate school that had extremely high average standardized test scores that put the average person in the top one percent (see Table 1 for a complete list of “elite schools” that made the cut).”
The premise of the article is where they went to college determines if they are in the top 1 percent of ability.
So without further evidence that is hardly proof that democrats are more cognitively able than republicans.
So, no actual rebuttal, just directing away from religious hypocrisy, voting history, etc. You named no policies you mentioned, ad hominem attack on education, and you polish it off with a broad stroke like "oh wait and lots of other stuff in your statement too!"
Looks like someone gave you a thumbs up as if you said something of substance. I'd be curious to know what it is.
My opening statement was “this doesn’t belong here”. My response was has ample merit but again, this isn’t thread to have those discussions/conversations. Having said that, even the concept of tuition forgiveness…preposterous.

Then they should be able to pay back their student loans if they are more “cognitively able” lol.

Helps to read the whole thing
"Research has indicated that individuals who are politically liberal are more likely to have higher ability than those who are politically conservative in America (Kanazawa, 2010) and Britain (Deary, Batty, & Gale, 2008). However, this finding pertained to voters rather than political leaders those people had elected. This study demonstrates that in America, Democrats are more likely than Republicans to have a higher percentage of Senate and House members in the top 1 percent of cognitive ability and Democrats had a higher ability and education level, on average, than Republicans."

Again the article defines cognitive ability as where they went to college. My point still stands.
The amount of privilege some of you guys have is astonishing.
Most of what you just said is true but to be surprised why people want this job really shows you have no clue how shitty most other careers are.
No, no. Not looking for privilege. It’s about quality. If you want/expect quality of service, you must compensate for it.
The FAA has a habitual practice of blaring its safety culture horn while truthfully eroding it. Equipment, staffing, morale, and a shift to appearance rather than actually addressing safety lapses. Its taken its toll and exhausting for Controllers (who actually enjoy Controlling) and the flying public.
Again the article defines cognitive ability as where they went to college. My point still stands.
Colleges with?

"extremely high average standardized test scores"
How do you measure things across broad groups? Your point stands at your reading comprehension and nothing else if understanding the concept of averaged testing is too complex.

For your point and the article to actually be evidence you would have to prove that democrats were accepted and graduated at a higher rate than republicans who also applied and graduated.
It’s an incomplete picture. You really can’t see that?

Hence the citation from Satoshi Kanazawa London School of Economics and Political Science explaining the methodology across multiple years and 10s of thousands of people.
It is a very wide and very long study. Having to explain this would be easier if you read the link and included research. Laziness is a poor excuse for ignorance.
I ask you all, once again: is Sydney Sweeney "mid" or not?!
I would have never thought I'd get tired seeing titties until every time I try to find stuff in Sydney to do and Google thinks I mean her instead of the city

The title of article from your link, “Who’s Smarter? Republicans and Democrats in Congress.”
The article you posted specifically is discussing congress and senate members. So maybe take some of your own advice and work on your reading comprehension.

Again, refer to my previous post. Ignorance due to laziness is poor form. Check the cited sources.

ICE are just modern day redcoats, convince me otherwise.
Check this out. As if this regime wasn’t already bringing Orwell’s 1984 to real life, it’s now also bringing Animal Farm to life: All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
ICE & Border Patrol (aka masked Gestapo) will get paid by illegal means & despite no funds appropriated by Congress while air traffic controllers get the shaft. I guess some federal workers are more equal than others.

Well, since they’re already breaking federal law to pay them without appropriations, I’m sure they could just as easily dole out unlimited Time-Off Awards in violation of the law and OPM guidance. That being said, the regime doesn’t really want them on leave when they could otherwise be racially profiling & terrorizing black and brown folks (to include U.S. citizens & military veterans).
