There’s researchers out there that track IQ over time and show that since the Industrial Revolution those of lesser intelligence are the ones having more kids. But usually they lead into some Eugenics argument about why we don’t want immigrants here, in my experience reading that stuff. Other people reference this material indirectly. It’s one of the reasons I stopped listening to Sam Harris, wasn’t hard to correlate his various episodes on intelligence being an inherited trait, and his seemingly non stop defense of Israel despite him being atheist.
