If you want to split hairs, intelligence as a fixed trait of a person might not exist, but the degree to which people want to learn and question things is definitely decreasing.
If you want to split hairs even further, it might make more sense to talk about people having different “intelligences” in different skills and areas of life, rather than using “intelligence” as a single, all-encompassing description of all intellectual ability.
Intelligence is like sport. Just because someone is good at tennis doesn’t mean they know shit about long jump. It’s a skill that people develop over time and it encompasses many different types of knowledge.
Sorry that you can’t get good a real sport like crypto and need to play “di-eclectic materialism” or whatever. Like who even cares about being good at ping pong?
Intelligence is made up. It doesn’t exist. It’s an idealogical tool used to enforce hierarchies.
