Pretty much. All those people in history were autistic sperglords, and the only reason why they succeeded in society then was because they had money and/or got lucky. I'm sure all the other poor sperglords just got shit on daily by all the chads working on a fucking farm or somethin. But today they'd get a fancy degree and maybe a professorship and then slave away grading introductory coursework for all the stupid undergrads and have zero time for their own research.

Garrett Birkhoff
Marshall Stone
Galois
Wittgenstein
John Conway (he only died last year, but if he was a lot younger, I think he might have)
Gian Carlo Rota
Erdos
Chomsky if he was younger
Basically any of the logical positivists would probably be edgelord trolls, shitting on SJWs and postmodernists

Tycho Brahe would be on here all day using masterful troll techniques to trap anons into logical corners and then destroy them just for fun.

Probably most of them. Most scientists of history were shut-ins who never got much recognition until long after they were dead. The only exceptions I can think of are maybe Plato or Aristotle, they had pretty big followings when they were alive.

It seems like David Hilbert was pretty sociable, extroverted, and had some leadership skills. Erdos was also sociable, but awkward, kind of like an awkward ween with adhd or aspergers or something.

It's morphed over the past couple of months from meaning "shut up stupid normie" to "I don't have a good way of refuting anything in this discussion so I'm going to dismiss you with a name instead".

It never meant "shut up normie", it meant "learn about the culture before participating". Newfag. Lurk moar.

Same anon.
I agree with your point about newfags and redditors who bitch about pol and think anyone who isn't a normie is a 'poltard'. But I wasn't using 'poltard' in a disparaging manner. That's just what I call them. I do the same thing with sci. Anons who browse /sci/ are 'scifags'. It's not really an insult, its just a not-very-serious nickname.
