Do German's View Themselves as The Smartest?

[Bleipriester]

Which is how the police operate in Hell ... this is an American joke ... this is how Americans think the Gestapo worked ...

I'm buying the Volkswagen before I buy the Fiat ... and thank the Living God there's no English restaurants here ...

Fiat is a good brand one of Europe´s major companies.

Gestapo was a secret service, not a publicly seen police force.

I think Trump considers himself as the smartest, and his followers consider themselves a tiny step below him.

He also thinks his dad was born in Germany, when he really wasn't.

Is there a connection here? I wonder.

Do Germans view themselves as the smartest out of all of Europe?

I am partially German and it seems my full blood German relatives view themselves as smarter and superior to everyone else in Europe. In a way it's kind of funny. Jews say they are the smartest, Brits say they are, I know many Mexican's who claim they are, I know many Asians who claim they are the smartest.

I will say my full blood German relatives are all very smart, college and graduate degrees with IQ scores in the 120's- 130's. They make the argument that they come from great bloodlines. Since I am mixed and not full blood German I guess I don't qualify lol

Many people believe that whatever they are is the best in the world. Especially inbreds.

People also tend to believe that whatever they are good at makes them superior. Athletes think athletics are the most important thing in the world. For artists, it's art, for mathematicians it's mathematics.

Germans seem to be really good at engineer & science, but WWI & WWII proved that they suck at basic decision-making skills.

Of course, since all German men were removed from Germany and sent to forced labor camps between 1945-1950, all Germans born during those years were sired by foreign soldiers. Hitler's dream of a pure Aryan race was totally destroyed.

That may be the best thing that ever happened to the German people!

The fact is that Irish/English/Swedish/German/French/Italian/Brazilian/Russian/Mongolian/Tartar/Finnish hybrids are clearly the world's superior people! No doubt about it!

~50% of the intelligence has biological reasons.

It's in the opposite. A "mix" is normally biologically more stable. And the expression "full blood" has in German only an analogy to horses. Such horses have an Arabian origin. But such horses indeed never played a big role in Germany. We need normally other horses: "Kaltblüter" = cold blooder - and also oxen. Unfortunatelly we have not enough donkeys in Germany. I love donkeys.

... Americans think ...

A big word. A very big word.

 

[zaangalewa]

Not these days. The German bürgerlich is dying out.

Also in the USA the middle class and a good education is dying out; isn't it?

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin have nearly the same image in Germany. Putin = criminal tyrant. Trump = criminal tyrant in spe.

Of course Germans are pretty sure they are the most clever and smart in Universe and around.
But they have a problem
Their schools are the last among European countries, due to migration from the most Low-IQ countries the level of education continuously drops down, Even in high school the amount of IQ-70 immigrants is more as 50 %
Germany was smart some decades ago, but not now, all processes are irreversible and the country becomes an United Caliphate within ten years

true

and wrong the same time. All policemen in Germany under the Nazis had been under control of Heinrich Himmler (nickname: "der Reichsheini" ~="the fool of the empire") - who also had been the boss of the SS, the executors of the holocaust.

Is getting worst and not so well off like before, but not dying like in Germany
The government is hardly working to get manufacturing back, but your industry is gone

Compared with you it will be difficult to find a German who is not more clever and smart (whatever this means) than you in your own self-made and very "special" universe.

Says an idiot. The Pisa tests are nonsense - that's all.

They've been making them the longest.

Not so. The VW and BMW I had were the shortest cars I've ever owned.

The PISA tests create "untested" problems. Let me say it with the words of Arnold Gehlen: "Humans are specialists in being unspecialized." That's why Humboldt's educational ideal never will die. What all tests test is not the sum but only the parts. And the sum always will be more than the parts. And fortunatelly no one and not any normal system will be able to prevent that a talented pupil will learn.
