Ion know why people can’t just accept that being intelligent comes with a big of arrogance because it makes you confident in what you see and can flesh out.

It leads you to actually recognizing and realizing just how many people are functional idiots and just how much of social interaction is pointless exercises.

That makes you a bit of a dick, and an asshole.

So you are an intelligent, opinionated asshole, that’s not the same as being autistic. You know what to do and you just decide not to do it because you don’t want to.

That’s why I like Neil D. Tyson, he don’t hide behind autism, he’s just a smart asshole

As a physicist by training, I like Tyson. I just would like him to stay away from social topics. He's great at science, but he's said some extremely unhelpful shit in the past when it comes to the black struggle.
 
The kind of people actually like Amanda Seals? She is truly one of the worst types of people you can ever truly deal with. No matter what, it’s never her fault, she doesn’t know why people don’t like her, she’s confused in terms of what’s going on and it’s very comedic to see her in action. Someone like Damon Dash, has a lot of pushback from people, but he knows he’s intense and tough to deal with. Amanda acts as if she doesn’t understand why things go the way that they go.

It’s hilarious to notice how that plays out. She’s one of those people that will tell you that Harvey Weinstein, Sean Combs, R. Kelly, Russell Simmons are bad because of the many different women who come out, and use the number of women to validate why they’re monsters. Yet when you try to throw out in the mix the number of people who’ve had issues with her, she will look you in the face and tell you each and every scenario is wrong and nothing is ever there.
 
Amanda Seales gets so much attention for no reason.

Lol, only bad thing she's done is falsely claimed rape.

Lol, she isn't that smart.

She isn't that witty.

She isn't that funny.

She's simply light-skinned and loud.

She is one of these Black women that hit 35 and been in the desert, wondering why she doesn't have a man, kids and a house on the hills given all that she is done.

It comes off as arrogant but it's confused desperation.

They want a community but there ain't none. Community requires wealth and shared values to defend that wealth.

There's thousands of Black women like that, that come off as rude, showboating, arrogant, loud, and it's really just... a slow decline into insignificance.

What she need to do is stop caring about being Black so damn much and be herself.

Ain't no benefit in being Blakkity Black. Them niggas overeducated, miserable and broke on the Internet, arguing to other overeducated miserable and broke motherfuckers about shit only miserable and broke people care about.


And the real ones are in prison or dead. Families ruined and in poverty.

Why you wanna be faux-revolutionary when this is the most apolitical era of Black folks. Most of resigned to letting our children be in debt, trying to figure it out, telling them God gonna make a way because they didn't make a fucking way.

Nah, Amanda, you making up being autistic to get in good with motherfuckers that don't do nothing political or social anyway.

They just grift and do UberEats.

The two does not correlate

Being an asshole is common among dumb folks, not smart ones.
 
Like what

He tends to talk about things from a purely scientific standpoint, so when racism comes up, he'll say true things from a biological or anthropological standpoint, but miss out on some of the reality of how race is treated in society. He doesn't coon or anything like that. It just comes across that he's not as knowledgeable about the history or societal impact of racism as he is about topics in hard sciences.

More so he looks at it from a purely logical, objective, factual viewpoint and doesn’t take into account the human and or emotional aspect of things. Like a very intelligent person would.

On his podcast, which is more personal, dude talks about being a 6 foot plus teen growing up in NewYork and acknowledges the role of racism in his life and his father’s life. He just doesn’t attach to it, from an emotional level.
 
Very annoying seeing ppl break this interview down....like is Amanda annoying,yes, but being annoying isn't causing harm lol. Which is ultimately her point about ppl not liking her delivery and tone. We accept katt stretching the truth and talkin nonsense for the better part of 4 hrs bc it was digestible and funny....

It's like.....do yall (and im speaking generally about the internet not anyone here specifically, but if the shoe fits idc) talk to ppl for extended periods of time on a regular basis? Ppl flip flop and say things at hr 2 of a conversation that sounds different than what they said at minute 20. Human beings are messy and we're too conditioned by social media and crafted statements that when we see humans acting like humans we're put off.

Idk. Ima go hug my dog or something

Good points and all, but I gotta tell you, I’m actually really intrigued by how someone could take the bolded as an insult. Not that you tried to insult anyone but you prefaced it like someone could take it as a shot.

The projected insult that someone isn’t talkin to someone for a long time?

doesn’t have someone who they can talk to for a long time?

Isn’t a attentive listener over an extended period of time?

Theres so many different ways to look at it, lol..ion know why but that shit is mad interesting

A great many people that are of high intelligence, dare I say the overwhelming majority of us, are quite humble. We work regular jobs, run businesses here and there, and have a "normal" lot in life. The reason that I've come to find is that being labeled as "genius" or of high intelligence sets an expectation in society that many of us have no desire to live up to. True, it allows us to see the functional idiots in our everyday lives, but that doesn't mean "be a dick" off rip. Nope, it just means you see the world for what it is and you move according to what best suits you.

The person Amanda appears to be is someone that is "smart", but not very "intelligent". Smart people always feel as if they have something to prove, they have to show off that they know more, have read more, they regurgitate facts and figures they memorized. They are always in competition with those around them to show how much they know and to be better than them; these are the arrogant assholes you're thinking of. Nearly anyone can become smart through work.

The intelligent person isn't like that; we exist as we are, not showing off, not spouting off facts and figures. Intelligence yields ideas, abstractions, reasoning, and challenges to what's presented to them. People like this have a natural curiosity about the world around them, its many facets, and how it works. Intelligence is something you're really born with; it is your innate nature. It expresses itself in many ways but usually as a person that questions what they're taught and looks beyond the page in front of them. You can train yourself to be smart, but intelligence is something you're born with.


To put it another way: A smart person can read about and tell you what Nikola Tesla has done and to the average person this is impressive, an intelligent person can read his work, but has the capacity to understand it, can apply it, and seeks to improve it or to challenge it all together.
