平均 IQ 日漸下滑大馬華人何去何從？

不知道大家有沒有發現一個現象，如果拿一些獨中歷年的高級數學課本對比，你會發現高級數學課的難度有不斷下降的趨勢，學生學的内容越來越簡單

當然，這不僅僅只是獨中特有的現象，也不止是大馬的特殊國情，而是全世界都在普遍呈現的趨勢：IQ 下降

然而，大馬華人面臨的整體 IQ下降更為嚴重，這是大環境造成的

首先，大馬華人移民出國的人，雖然也有很多從事非腦力行業的人士，但各類專業人士佔了很大一部份，或者應該這樣說，移民出國的大馬華人之中專業人士佔的比例相對整體比例要來得高：

整體：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l（專業）

減去移民後：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l （專業）

這樣就導致大馬華人整體 IQ 下降趨勢比國家整體趨勢更爲明顯

其次，IQ 較高的一群走了之後，剩下來平均 IQ 較低的大馬華人繼續繁衍，生下來的第二代整體 IQ 基因水平就比先前一代來得更低。這樣反復重演、循環，大馬華人的平均 IQ 就會逐年逐代降低：

第N代：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l （專業）

第 N+1代：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l （專業）

第 N+2代：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l （專業）

第 N+3代：（非專業）l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l （專業）

(以此類推)

這个趨勢造成的一個相當恐怖的結果就是華人和馬來人的平均 IQ 差距在逐年減少。而平均 IQ 差距逐年減少就會導致越來越多華人會進回教，但這還不是最恐怖的。

最恐怖的是，華人在經濟、文化、教育這些腦力領域上的優勢，將會蕩然無存。雖然 PRC 的崛起在很大程度上能減緩大馬華人被同化的速度，但如果大馬華人本身的 IQ 不斷下滑，想要傳承並維持優越的中華文化，將會越發困難

陣末風雲錄 🇲🇾 🇲🇾 The final years of Barisan Nasional

IQ > 100 並且有看日本大河劇的人都會發現，大馬目前的政局和日本幕末時期極其相似，各種思潮風起雲湧，精彩紛呈

就和黑船來航後的德川幕府一樣，無力挽救國家經濟的囯陣行將就木已是大部份人的共識

問題是誰將會給囯陣帶來致命的一擊，將會對國家以及各方勢力的得失起著重大的影響

在這裡，就整理一下目下陣末時期各派人馬的角色

幕府：囯陣

佐幕派：囯陣粉絲

公武合體論：廢票黨

倒幕派

尾張藩：土團黨

薩摩保守派：回教党

薩摩開國派：公正黨

長州過激派：紅豆兵

長州保守派：行動黨高層（林神派）

長州開國派：理性火箭支持者

土佐藩：All-in 變天派

請紅豆憤青們不要白癡了，華人是不可能同時幹掉 UMNO 和回教党的

理想很豐滿，現實很骨感

UMNO 想把馬來西亞榨乾，回教党想把馬來西亞變成 ISIS；華人左也是死，右也是死

不要整天談移民，我知道幾乎每个華人都有至少一個遠房親戚已經移民走人或正在移民的，但這个人未必是你，所以你最好 diam-diam 坐下來，看完這个帖子

你想幹掉 UMNO 和回教党，我也想。但是理想很豐滿，現實很骨感，華人的力量加起來是不可能把這兩个政黨同時幹掉的

如果曹操率大軍南下的時候，孫權不但不和劉備結盟，還想同時打敗劉備和曹操，他肯定是瘋了

同理，在囯陣步步進逼的當下，希聯不和回教党結盟就算了，還想同時滅掉回教党和 UMNO，根本就是痴人説夢

華人是不可能同時把 UMNO 和回教党都滅掉的，我們（孫權）可以做的就是先聯合回教党（劉備）把 UMNO （曹操）打退，然後再想辦法對付回教党（劉備）

而且讓回教党（劉備）繼續在馬來鄉區發展，也可以牽制住 UMNO（曹操），就像劉備入蜀後從西南地區不斷騷擾曹魏，給了孫權在東南有喘息和進擊的機會

UMNO 未倒臺前再有言滅回教党之華人，是為漢奸

Eng distinguish
Latin distinguere "to separate between, keep separate, mark off, distinguish, separate by pricking," from dis- + -stinguere "to prick"

Eng extinguish
