The bell curve part is fine. It’s the correlation between IQ and political orientation that is not. One of the biggest fallacies in life is that being smart automatically makes you a good person. It does not, and it also does not determine your political affiliation.
Most of intelligence is simply having less morals than the regular person.
We got this gal for possession of two joints, we’re now forcing her to go undercover in a crack den where she could, and did, get murdered.
We need to know how America built nukes. What if we just paid someone to give us the information?
We need to know America’s military innovations. What if we gave an incel a submissive asian GF?
We need a brain dead yes man for China. What if we gave him a submissive asian wife?
We need a mole in the CIA. What if we gave a guy a bunch of money?
Are you willing to force a random woman to spy for you, whore herself for her country? Are you willing to bribe randos for intel? There are creative ways but sex and money dominate that field.
Oh and I almost forgot. What if, for absolutely no reason, we paid hookers to sneak LSD and other drugs into their Johns and filmed it using taxpayer money?
What if we knew about an international pedophile ring, a comically compromised individual who will sell anyone out for a buck. What if we had a heart-attack gun and did nothing with it, you know like just let a comically evil person just live their life. Oh, the rich murder pedo is running for president? Nah, we have no obligation to do good or protect America.
For the most part, intelligence agencies are anything but. They are however, comically corrupt and ineffective.
Yes and no. My first thought of intelligence agencies was in the direction of the NSA and its brothers and sisters. For the CIA part i am fully with you. Just a bunch of amoral leg breakers. But the NSA attacks on cryptography algorithms and the predictability of random generators do indeed need some great minds.

This! If intelligence were to make you make good choices, intelligence agencies would have no employees.

I guess the curve here is iq is the vertical axis and political orientation is the horizontal axis.
