Technology is growing at a rapid rate far faster than the human capacity to grow in intelligence.
Today there are no longer any inventions or creations that a single person could make that would push forward the field of science.
Most of the important research is happening through private corporations with thousands of geniuses working together towards the same goal.
With the advent of AI development we have optimized the research process to not even require that many humans and be far faster than the humans running the process.
The only way to keep up would be the genetic engineering and upgrading of human information processing capabilities.
Otherwise we would as a species get left behind our own technologies which would grow at a far more rapid rate than human intelligence itself.
Human IQ increases around 2 points per decade.
Human technology on the other hand improves at a far faster rate. For example - 5g is supposed to be 10 times faster than 4g.
That's a 10x improvement in a decade. Human intelligence would have grown by 2 iq points in the same time period.

It's equally bad in the AI realm, where AI intelligence is growing hundreds to thousands of times faster than human learning rates.
In conclusion:
In the future humans have no choice but to be genetically engineered to be able to keep up with the technologies they have created and to be able to compete in the global market.

Because when a moderation team makes a decision to permit one of their own to break rules, troll the users, make the sub look bad, and above all, attract a very destructive brand of user from a very chaotic sub, it speaks to a moderation team that no longer cares about the sub or the wishes of the users in it. Look at all those /r/drama buttholes in this thread.
Everyone of these has been downmarseyd. Everyone has been filled with comments deriding them and asking for the mods to stop permitting this shit. They have ignored those. Likely brushing it off as "not a big deal".
What it really shows is they're letting their friend get off on his little hoppy of bringing attention to himself, not unlike a child, and they're definitely sitting in their groomercord laughing at the users bothered by it. Otherwise they'd do the reasonable thing and stop it.
