Explains study about human intelligencefrom @womp_tomp
[01]
Overview
The speaker recounts a psychological study where 30% of participants failed to understand the conservation of volume when orange juice was poured into a smaller glass. He uses this study as an analogy to argue that a significant portion of the population lacks basic conceptual understanding, comparing it to a child's grasp of object permanence. He concludes by advising viewers to remember this cognitive limitation when engaging in arguments, as some people may be incapable of understanding complex logical concepts.

Narrative framework
The structural pattern this video runs on
Framework
The Cognitive Gap Framework
To illustrate a common frustration by presenting a simple, surprising cognitive test that a large portion of the population allegedly fails, thereby reframing the frustration as an unbridgeable intellectual gap.
- 1
The Shocking Result
Reveal the counter-intuitive or illogical outcome of the experiment, highlighting a surprising statistic to establish the scale of the cognitive failure.
- 2
The Intellectual Diagnosis
Provide a simplified psychological or logical explanation for why the failure occurred, defining the specific cognitive concept that the 'failing' group cannot grasp.
- 3
The Relatable Application
Bridge the abstract concept to a common, frustrating real-world experience (e.g., arguing, debating), warning the viewer that they are likely encountering this exact cognitive deficit in others.
- 4
The Escalating Analogy
Use a powerful, often demeaning or hyperbolic analogy (e.g., comparing adults to babies) to dramatize the intellectual gap and solidify the creator's point.

Transcript
Did a study where they've had, orange juice poured from one glass into, like, a smaller glass, and it and it made it look like there was more orange juice. And then they asked tier participants, like, is that more orange juice? And, like, 30% of them in The United States, it was, like, 30% of the population was, like, yeah. That's more orange juice. Even though they watch the same amount be poured from one glass to the next glass. Meaning, they can't conceptualize, like, the permanence of, like, volume or something, which is just keep that in mind when you're arguing with anybody. Like, they might be one of those people. But if you don't no, like, that's, like, basic that's one step above object permanence. You're basically fighting with people who go, oh my gosh, when you play peekaboo with them, and you're trying to get them to understand, like, the difference between, like, a theoretical statement and an actual one, like, logical syllogisms. I was actually talking descriptively. They don't know what the fuck you're saying.
