For a little added fun, how would you determine who is or is not intelligent in the world today?
You can't. Intelligence is not an easy thing to measure. Many people excel in certain areas of study, but fail others. The skills you would associate with intelligence could mean nothing to another person. You probably think your smart, but I guarantee someone's definition of intelligence disagrees. For example, I think it's stupid to classify people based on intelligence, and even dumber to try and kill people because of it. What you are suggesting is not an intelligent idea, at least to me.
And I don't think we should ever kill somebody because of intelligence, You don't have to be a genius to contribute to society. Whether you like it or not, the people you brand as unintelligent are probably still serving society in some way.

Or ask them something about politics, like if socialism is bad or good
This.
Someone's opinion on socialism is subjective. Besides, you're suggesting that a person is only intelligent if they care about politics.

Its Easy... Eugenics. Stupid people or people with genetic deficiencies aren't allowed to make offspring. Its like forced evolution.
Yes because genetics automatically determines how smart someone will be. It has nothing to do with the quality of their education or their living conditions.
Also, how come the OP didn't even answer his own question? It's his goddamn thread.
