WionGen Z is officially less intelligent than millennials, first recorded intergenerational IQ dropGen Z is now officially the only generation to measure lower than their predecessors in intelligence.

“Author” is a Senior News Editor

Doesn’t mention their sources or anything related to the study per se, just a bunch of “this guy said…”

I’ve seen you edited the post for the sources, good job.
I just wanted to point out that I don’t disagree with the article, I think it’s just poorly written: if you talk about “intelligence” you have to write “intelligently” otherwise it’s just old man yelling at cloud type of content.
