What would be the most humane way to make humanity over generations increase their IQs?

\&gt;&gt;***this is walking a thin line straight to secretly imposed sterilization***  
This is already secretly happening against the broader population by the controllers (who want to reduce human numbers period) by way of 'soft' implementation. It also happens to be *extra* detrimental to the more financially literate (often middle class) of the population who will plan children according to what is economically feasible versus the rest (too rich or too poor) who care less. Higher financial literacy so happens to correlate with higher IQ. In other words, fertility of higher IQs with average income will be disadvantaged by their own financial discernment compared to the rest of the population.

The key to the current campaign's success against most of humanity is by making the sterilization 'soft' via a million little 'cuts'... Society is currently intentionally constructed for the 'plebs' to be infertile and decrease:

**A) Environmental/food poisoning**

**B) Anti-natalist policy/ economy/ culture:**  
\- High Childcare Costs:: discourages having children due to financial burden.

\- Expensive Housing &amp; Living Costs:: delays or prevents family formation due to financial instability.

\- Career-Focused Culture &amp; Education Priorities (especially for women):: encourages delaying childbirth or having fewer children. Skepticism toward traditional family roles leads many women to delay or forgo motherhood

\- Promotion of Contraception, sterilization, &amp; abortion:: reduces unintended pregnancies and lowers birth rates.  
\- Disrupting relations between men and women via extreme ideologies:: Shifting gender dynamics, rising distrust between men and women, and the devaluation of fatherhood/motherhood have weakened stable relationships, reducing marriage and birth rates.  
\- Financially rewarding population reduction:: Western nations invest far more in reducing fertility than increasing it, with subsidized birth control and abortion services receiving billions in funding. Many pharmaceutical companies profit from birth control and abortion services, further driving investment.

There is an invested interest to maintain all of the above status quo.  
  
**C) 'Hard' sterilization with %%plausible deniability%% is likely in the works or already happening:**   
Bill Gates during a 2010 TED Talk titled "Innovating to Zero!":

*"The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's headed up to about 9 billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent."*

And if you believe the spikes in stillbirths/infertility that coincide with the vax/covid rollout, then the vax/pandemic itself was a 'harder' sterilization agent.

I'm against sterilization and especially what's happening societally right now to reduce populations (most of which I don't consider truly 'organic' in origin). But I absolutely think there's a way to implement a smarter population, even if it just means recruiting intelligent people to go at it like rabbits 🐰 so to speak. And it might be something to consider if we want to avoid the current downward trend of intelligence.

Agree that IQ isn't the end-all be-all and there's other limitations to human 'success', but it's definitely a foundation that can help (and not hinder) humanity's future imo. So why not invest in it? Perhaps your experience in the irrelevance of your higher intelligence is partly because we don't live in a society that rewards or values higher intelligence enough (instead celebrating nepotism, greed, looks, and conformism). Then it's not so much a lack of true significance, as much as misapplied human priorities and missed potential. (*Where would humanity be if we had spent more time on education than beauty standards?*)  
  
**"Applicability in the real world" is also constructed by social customs and averages.** For example, if your current intelligence level was just the average required to participate and be functional in society, then it would be proportionally quite 'important' and not underutilized. Likewise, can you say with 100% certainty that a version of yourself with lesser intelligence would have come to the same conclusion as the you currently - that you were afforded at least in part by your specific capabilities for cognitive evaluation? Or might you have different thoughts if your intelligence was equivalently rewarded by a genuinely intelligence-celebratory society?  
  
Just something to think about.  
  
Disregard for a personal advantage is most easily performed by those with -- as opposed to those without. I don't expect that highly intelligent people will/or should always have to highly value their own intelligence, but they come from a position where they even have the option to take it for granted so to speak. So for someone average like myself who wishes they were smarter and were frustrated by experiences with slow cognition while in school, I find it an opinion I can't relate with. But I respect your take and am happy for your blessing of intellect and where it applies itself to benefit humanity (as an educator in your case). Agree 1000% on the importance of education/learning though.
