Thank you for taking the time to explain the "Flynn Effect" to Tommy. Tommy will not understand it because he has chosen a life of ignorance, I guess because he cannot face reality like a lot of the MAGA cult. As you know, the brain reacts to stimulation, like the body reacts to stimulation, it makes both stronger. People have figured that out with regard to body building and exercise, but many have not figured out education works the same way, more or less. The more you do, the smarter you get. We are born concrete thinkers like all animals, but we have the ability to think abstractly through learning, as your article mentioned, both through education, but also interacting in a complex environment that requires it, like living in a city. Trump told Canada's PM Mark Carney, he preferred tariffs because doing trade deals was to complex! Carney responded:" complexity is in the eye of the beholder". The Republican party should be ashamed and held responsible for giving the keys to the nuclear codes to a person who is so dangerously unfit to have them! cheers
