>>11317163How it feels:
The answers you’re given aren’t good enough and you need to seek things out yourself.
You have to constantly suppress your power level lest people playing games other than discovery hear something they don’t like.
I have to dumb things down for people to know what I’m talking about in a way that dips into inaccuracy. I have to think in a more retarded way to engage in conversation unless I totally game said conservation, which is even more lonely.
>>11317375Meeting someone very likely smarter than myself was a feeling of relief.
>>11317373This is a frustrating thing that “getting over” has also required me to leave more of humanity behind. For me it was the look in the person’s face of me having outed myself as a retard in their eyes due to admitting ignorance or seeking clarification.
I should also add to all of this that I’m fairly aware of my limitations.
>>11317375My experience with life has reenforced this. Nobility is NOT rewarded short term. If one behaves morally it is because one cannot help but do so.
>>11317364The being able to get good at everything thing is something I’ve overlooked, but deffo true.
>>11317369Ouch.
Knowing that revealing yourself would hurt people.
>>11317582Tbh being given a lecture by someone smarter than myself was quite a calming, pleasant feeling.
>>11318983Living with the imperfection of the world and instead trying to neutrally observe the patterns rather than get caught up in critique.
A general note: it takes intelligence to recognise intelligence. People who aren’t as intelligent as I am are shit at detecting intelligence, and use ineffectual heuristics to distinguish intelligence. For example, just as normies might dismiss things as conspiracy theories, while making no distinction between reasonable and unreasonable conspiracy theories, /sci/ users will do the same with things that have the qualities of schizoposts.
