But if you're low iq you will never be aware of such and just be unconditionally happy despite negative events

I’d still choose being high iq cuz iq is power, ur superior to other people with high iq and inferior to other people with low iq

Low iq. Why do you want high iq? To feel better, superior, what gives you that sense of superiority? Happiness. Then why don’t just be happy forever.

Rather be sad and live a happy life then be happy and live a sad life
That doesn’t make sense. If you live a “happy life” but you’re sad forever, that happy life become a sad life. And if you live a “sad life” but you’re happy forever. The you’re living a happy life genius. It’s logical. Life can be seen from different perspectives. That’s the whole point of this. You maybe be high iq but have a bad perspective of life and that’s why ur sad and vice versa

Objectively tho being low iq is worse and a low iq’s life is bad and they have a lot of struggles while high iq people have it easy

What do you prefer, have money buy isolation. What I meant by that is fake friends and girlfriend. You know they just want you for your money so ofc you will never be satisfied and that’s the only people you have. Or don’t have much money but face the struggles with your friends. The people around you helps you and you’re happy about it. Cus when you finish let’s say fixing your old door with your savings. You’ll go drink up a beer with your friends. Some people call it slavery, other happiness

And the low iq individual will be unaware of his life of slavery, so he will remain content

Why do you want a high life quality?
Exactly, you want a high QOL to enjoy it, but you're cursed with eternal sadness.
What does it matter?

the knowledge that you are living a 'happy life', yet you are unable to gain any happiness from it, would surely lead to further depression, knowing that nothing can make you happy

It’s like being depressed while living in the us compared to being happy with your family in a very poor country, what would u choose?

Yes but it’s still better than being dumb and happy cause everything in your life is fake, your way of interpreting things as something good is bad, you’ll get taken advantage off, and you’ll never have truly deep connections, when ur high iq you’ll also never have truly deep connections, but u could still connect and no one will have that kind of power over u cuz ur above them
 
Super heaven or super hell:lul: Obviously low iq and happy. Being happy is the most important aspect of life. The only reason somewhat high iq is "good" is because it prevents you from entering a state of financial and/or social disaster, which in turn would make you unhappy. If you could artificially controll how you would react to such a scenario, why wouldn't you chose that option? The potential downsides of low iq wouldn't even neccecerily happen. In isolation, high iq just makes your life shit
