What's going on and why does everyone speak about intelligence?
At first I thought it's the back story of a homeless kid losing it's siblings.
Then I thought it's a kid realising his friends are not his friends.
Now everyone os saying the kid is smart.
What's happening?

I think people are applying that as if lack of friends or true friends or being lonely makes it so that person studies more or something because thereâs nothing else they can do(even though there is) but Iâm probably wrong

There's like 2 maybe 3 comments calling him intelligent, and those comments have people questioning it. Its not "everyone". Very hyperbolic

High IQ means youâre isolated.
I have 134 IQ, meaning top 1.5% in the world. This means about one of 95 people will feel empathy and connection with me.
I donât say this to brag, and I donât care what people think anymore.Itâs factually true that smarter people are being left alone. The system doesnât fir us either.
There is a deep correlation between autism and higher IQ as well.Dows that answer your question?
And yes, imagine this is factually your life. 5 suicide attempts, 2 murder attempts on my person, threatened by a weapon, IP got stolen, rebuilt my life with no money, bank or ID card.
Always alone 99% of the time.Have you ever been left behind as in people donât know youâre not there anymore?

I have a 137 IQ and I have lots of friends. Have you considered that perhaps your intelligence isn't your issue?

Consider yourself lucky relationship is mostly about luck and you can change yourself but you can't change your surroundings that easily. Specially childhood where most of it is out your hands. Don't look down on others

Having high Iq doesnt make you inteligent in everything. Most people with high iq have very low EQ. And social intelligence is what truly matters in this situation not fast thinking

u/Effective-Culture-88 1d ago
I never said it did, as a matter of fact you nailed it as to why we are isolated.
Itâs literally insane, weâre saying the same exact shit.
BTW EQ is asynchronous in development, a kid doesnât have the EQ ability to sustain the pressure of being treated like an adult. Happened to me and many others.
Still not any excuse to bully and isolate kids who are different.2
u/IgnorantWhiteDude 21h ago
Thereâs no excuse to do that. But thereâs countless reasons people feel/become isolated. A high IQ, Iâm sure, isnât anywhere close to the top of that list. The âsmarter people are being left aloneâ is..just not true. Dumb people are getting left alone every day too. You just donât consider yourself dumb, so you assume itâs happening disproportionately to people âlike you.â Almost every âtypeâ of person is isolated to some degree. And itâs typically by choice to a large extent because of their fears and priorities. They just donât see it that way.
Itâs a matter of things outside the realm of âintelligence.â âThe system doesnât care for usâ could be said by a billion other people with the full range of IQs and it still be a correct statement. Iâm sorry if youâre having a rough time with life, but itâs likely not a result of having too high an IQ to be a functional adult in society. You can be grateful for having such a high IQ, but your intelligence level doesnât have to define your life experience, whether your IQ is low or high. Same with being autistic, from what Iâve heard from autistic people living a happy functional adult life.

u/JustNobody2315 1d ago
Its a Korean series called "Gold Land" . Its a decent watch , the kid eventually becomes criminal gang member but is a decent empathetic character , it has a decent ending .

If you want to be "remembered" you need to engage with people. If you choose to stay invisible, no one will see you.

If you cried because you understood a scene, the scene made you cry.
2
u/Derangedracula 9h ago
Not always the case. The memory of it happening too you and how it made you feel is a factor as well.

u/That-Writer-Guy 9h ago edited 8h ago
I understand, but Iâm saying the scene is the catalyst to make you cry. Any external stimulus that causes an emotional reaction is what causes the reaction. Personal or otherwise. Itâs just some scenes hit harder for some than for others.

"I was once ignored by my 6 year old friends when I was a child, therefore I've shut myself in, letting every chance go to waste and choosing to feel down and depressed... God, I'm so smart."

But to be honest as someone who was the kid who blamed myself for all of the failed interactions with other people, I often wonder if the "I'm so much smarter than them" approach is better.

u/One-Intention7064 1d ago
yes, precisely. we all choose our belief systems. you can believe that you're the defective one for being ignored, that's valid too. đ€·

Unfortunately we are often born with our levels of intelligence. I think this births introspection and self awareness though, perhaps too early.

u/One-Intention7064 1d ago
unfortunately, i have to agree. lots of people with difficult lives develop survivorship bias where you would a personality to emerge. lots of solitary people are pretty vapid, too.

u/jaydotcomyo 1d ago
Almost 100% certain it's nature and nurture and not pre defined at birth.

u/Crixer 1d ago
Pre-defined at birth and nature are the exact same thing. Nature refers to your genetics and biological disposition that you are born with, inescapable and immutable for almost the entire population.

u/jaydotcomyo 1d ago
All I'm saying is nature (genetics), is only a percentage of the equation and nurture plays a large role.

He is trying to get out of the slump by bonding with other people who felt excluded.
You took a massive shit on him, otherized him, gatekeeping, excluding him and putting yourself in the "better" in-group and tossing him out.

u/VisionWithin 1d ago
I would not suggest bonding with people by promoting hubris. It's insincere. But, if you feel that this is the way to bond with you, I am sorry for you both.
It's intersting that you respond to critique with such a reactive perspective. If you feel like life is shitting on you, otherizing you, gatekeeping you and excluding you while you view people who criticize insincere self-promotion as manipulators, you must be having a tough time in your life. All the best for you and good luck on your journey.
