It is true that half of the people are below average in intelligence.
Many are notably dumb, [in numbers equal to the notably bright.]

I would argue that there is little relationship between 'intelligence' and
'stupidity'.

Only a mathematical one.
If you are discussing what is measured by so called intelligence
tests, there seems to be a bell shaped curve, with as many below
average as above it. The correllation between IQ and the real world
does gets debated a lot.
