Dumb people of old are now slightly smarter, plus they have access to many tools to polish the turds they sell.

This is an interesting position to take. There is no way to prove or disprove it. Well played in that regard.
However, I propose that folks are the same now as they were thousands of years ago. There were genius' then as well as louts, just as there are today.
Louts can and do snag mates. Said mates may also or may not be louts and need to have a partner as much as anyone else, so that comment needs more thought. Consider the smart guy or gal that picks their mate based on their physical attractiveness and not their mental prowess.
