They are misleading by showing only part of the truth.

Yes, IQ contributes to the successful civilization, but it is not the only factor.

There's also good heart, self-discipline, empathy, sympathy, and lots more that high IQ will not guarantee and is essential for happy civilization.

People with high IQ very well might be ignorant, self-focused, narcissistic, etc., and people with lesser IQ will be more good hearted, compationed, altruistic, and this might contribute more to civilization than high IQ.
