You are in charge of an eugenics program
Would you put IQ above beauty, or viceversa?

I have this theory that having an IQ above 120 is meaningless

>have this theory that having an IQ above 120 is meaningless
You're wrong, IQ is outright dysgenic, or rather as I would put it a symptom of brain damage. The primary function of the neocortex is dimensionality reduction, it turns a million of pixels into a thousand times smaller latent space of more meaningful labels. Whatever comes nextis supposed to work in this latent space, and is overwhelmed by the deluge of mostly meaningless garbage, so it starts assigning meaning randomly to things like facial features, pieces of clothing, things lying randomly somewhere, and so on.
The more powerful the neocortex, the simpler everything seems, the less words you need to express the same thing, presumably IQ tests were subverted to give high score to people with a weak neocortex, and essentially the whole idea of how smart people think has been turned on its head.

You must see that, it just isn't working right? That it wasn't just some individual failure of intelligent people failing to use their intelligence to get ahead, but everything is falling apart now. Not only the society as a whole, but fields that you would especially expect to flourish, like science, cinema, art, literature.

on the contrary, there should be a mandate that only IQ above 140 are allowed to run for office, make decisions, vote...
anyone lower than that should be treated as second class citizens (aka cattles).

IQ might or might not give us some new great ideas or theories that will transform humanity, beauty will never give us anything, especially since it is always about the rarity and exotic, so lets say the whole population will get 20% more beautiful, it won't change anything, there will still be some that are at the very top that we will consider beautiful and average will stay average, exciting no one just by sheer look alone.

That's legitimately a womanly way of thinking. Guys will want anything above a certain level, and the 'novelty' factor is granted by women having different features, where a man will choose a girl who might be less "conventionally attractive" in favor of being smitten by her unique characteristics. For guys, making everyone 20% more beautiful would just reduce the number of less than desirable women (though the remaining few genuine uggos would then just be considered only by the most desperate).

It's presumably very different for women, who want men primarily for the 'It factor' and who are capable of exuding confidence beyond others.

On the contrary. Beauty is the triumvirate, next to truth and goodness, of the only three abstract/mind-related things which we desire for their own sake. Everything else follows, is merely a tool/design to accomplish something.

beauty = that which evokes the sensation of the sublime without it needing to "negotiate its terms (like its usefulness)" beforehand. You know it when you see it. The most self-evident appreciation to something visual possible.

truth = attainment of facts that evaluate to "true" if reduced and rendered in logic/math)

goodness = moral evaluation of the things that are inalienable and categorical, which we deem "good".

it's not meaningless. without a big iq you basically have no purpose in life. all the paths that could bring you money and success are closed for u. you can't become a scientist without iq, you can't create a good business without iq, you can't have a decent job without iq, you can't be a specialist without iq.
i'd argue that iq is basically everything, its even more important that knowledge since it's mostly based on problem solving

Money isn't your purpose in life. And IQ doesn't even correlate with IQ beyond a certain point. Emotional intelligence and other personality factors matter more.

Scientists don't make shit. And they are not all geniuses either. Richard Feynmann had a sub 130 iq

because all doors are locked for you. you can't really self improve in terms of intellectual capacity, therefor you won't be an efficient worker, therefore you won't make good money, therefore no girl will want to procreate with you so you won't fulfil your life's duty and you'll feel bad about yourself, since you contribute nothing to this world.
>Money isn't your purpose in life. And IQ doesn't even correlate with IQ beyond a certain point. Emotional intelligence and other personality factors matter more.
it's not in of itself, but it's a measure to a purpose of life
>Scientists don't make shit. And they are not all geniuses either. Richard Feynmann had a sub 130 iq
they still contribute to society and are widely respected, without iq none will respect you and society will look down upon you.
>Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit
cope more. hard work means nothing where the only demanded capability in this world is problem solving, and that is obviously an iq.

Absolutely not, high IQs have demonstrated multiple times throughout history that they are no better at managing organizations and understanding people than lower IQs.

In fact they can be super dangerous because they will always find a way to rationalize their distorted ideologies. When you live in a society, there isn't always an objective right or wrong way to do things, and more often than not it comes down to the will of the strongest or the majority depending on the social structure. It rarely comes down to facts and logic.

If the world IQ were at 120 of the English white average, the HDI would go up, and crime would go down drastically.

The economy would improve, atheism would become more prevalent, mental illness would become less prevalent and severe, homelessness would be less prevalent,

IQ is what explains the differences between first-world countries like Canada and Japan vs third-world countries in Africa, where crime, poverty, and religious extremism are problematic.

BMI would go down, smoking rates would go down, technological progress would be accelerated, and there would be more college graduates.

IQ is literally brain damage. It's never good for anything. As above, it's the result of the inability to process raw inputs into meaningful pieces of information. High IQ people can't learn ont their own, and need extensive explicit training. They spend all the time on analyzing something meaningless (the bike shed effect), they only think they are smart.

A) In this day and age, you don't need eugenics to improve genes. We have CRISPR and gene editing and all that.
B) Genetics is only one half of the key to a truly intelligent society. I used to be a complete moron (~115 IQ) until I managed to excise most of the unhealthy habits and thoughts that weakened my mind. I imagine it must be the same for others.
The cultural zeitgeist must be moved away from self-destructive and towards more enlightened ideals. I, however, do not see how.
