Damn how humans can be scary. If Intelligence at one end of a scale (e.g. "inability to grok a concept, say 'filter', leading to aggression leading to lynching") is a threat to me (who might not grok filter, but at least recognises it's just a word), then intelligence towards the other end of the scale might well be seen as a threat to those towards the first end of the scale. I guess that's why all "great" revolutionaries (Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao) slaughter those at one particular end of the scale - from Cambodia to Russia, a new ideology must destroy those who might question the new "religious" ideology - extremism must destroy those opponents to, i.e. those who are competent to challenge, the newly imposed extremism.
