The blog post you linked to seems to conflate intelligence with IQ and then use that to draw the conclusion that the whole concept of intelligence is a myth and ableist. That idea seems like, well, nonsense. I really don’t see how it’s ableist to acknowledge that everybody’s cognitive skills aren’t exactly the same
Progressive thought keeps running into fascists using things like IQ studies to argue for genocidal policies and tends to react by throwing the whole thing out the door because otherwise everyone needs to spend five hundred words just defining basic terminology for the discussion.
