America's Intellectual Collapse
SCOTUS is trying to let states redistrict some of the best of us out of leadership
The now undisguised racism of this majority right-wing SCOTUS is a deliberate threat to African American equality. There are those who are downright geniuses like Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson who should definitely advance if we were a country that valued equality.
For example, wouldn’t you want Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson running our country instead of the morons we currently have?
In March 2023, the high schoolers Calcea Johnson and Ne’kiya Jackson from St. Mary’s Academy in New Orleans did what mathematicians thought was impossible, solving the Pythagorean Theorem using trigonometry.
The pair recently presented their findings at the American Mathematical Society’s Annual Southeastern Conference.
“It’s really an unparalleled feeling, honestly, because there’s just nothing like being able to do something that people don’t think young people can do,” Johnson told the news station. “A lot of times you see this stuff, you don’t see kids like us doing it.”
Per The Guardian, Johnson and Jackson were the only high school students to present at the event, typically attended by university researchers.
But SCOTUS has killed the Voting Rights Act so these brilliant young women have a far less chance of representing us in Congress. Not that they’d want to, of course, but they might as others might.
Oliver Matos Reyes is a 12-year-old who lives in Alabama. He recently scored a 146 on an IQ test, placing him in the 99.9th percentile or genius range. He currently runs an economics club and plans to study law at Harvard.
Oliver was born in Venezuela, and he and his parents immigrated to the US. He is bilingual and is currently learning German. Arabic, Russian and Mandarin are next on his list.
So naturally Alabama is trying to redraw voting maps in that state so Oliver’s vote might not count when he is old enough to vote. Of course, since he plans to go to Harvard, he’ll probably settle in Massachusetts, a state that has the highest IQ. Alabama is among the lowest.
You can thank the Supreme Court for furthering redistricting so Republican dominated states can effectively disenfranchise voters of color. Those might be voters who would want to fix the school systems, the job inequalities and the health care systems that are so broken in these states. Socioeconomic factors greatly influence how kids develop intellectually.
Thus the vigorously redistricting states are logically helping to make the country dumber and dumber by continuing to have low quality education, abysmal health care and poor overall economic conditions.
All praise to these brilliant young people who are the hope of our country and all condemnation to those who want to make it harder for them and for so many others.
I’m talking to you, SCOTUS.
