This is different than the question "Are you presuming most people are more stupid than you?"

It makes my skin crawl to say this*, but the answer for most people on HN is probably "yes, they are."

* both because people in tech are prone to Paul Graham style 'nerd martyr' arrogance, and because I often read views that disappoint me here and I do not like to admit that an intelligent person can hold them

You're falling for the is ought fallacy. Moral views are completely orthogonal to intelligence.

I'm really not that sentimental. I don't expect everyone to have the same set of values that I do.

What gnaws at me is when someone has a system of beliefs that, to my mind, seems based on nonsense.
