I think the downvotes are coming in because you are carrying out a fundamentally different argument.

The article argues that people used to be more intellecutally capable when they were younger and it diminished with age.

You are arguing that each generation used to be more intellectually capable than the one before, and that that is diminishing.

I’m not trying to accuse you of anything, but it seems like you didn’t actually read the article you were commenting on. Is that possible?

Yes, it is possible. This is a good criticism :)

I somehow think the downvotes may be related to something else, though.

Yeah, the shameless self promotion without providing any value yourself.
