You name it

@Deleted User 57835c2c I dont like it when people say something that isnt the case, and arent just reasonably not seeing it that way

when I think someone knows something

then wilfully says otherwise

that makes me dislike that person

You are arguing beyond your knowledge

That is morally bad

it's not a contest

maybe you can help me understand some things, but not like this

that I'm smarter than you doesnt make me better than you

It's not so much that you have to care about your work it's that your work has to jive with your personality and talent a bit

What evidence is there that you are smarter

There must be a reason every employer has pushed me into management or tried to. And why everyone always comes to me about interpersonal conflicts

You are less precise and less intellectually rigorous

Clown world

you are literally saying the opposite of the case

I am precise to the point of autism

You leave premises unchecked

No, again, exactly the opposite

I always try to get down to the basic assumptions, the premises

I do accept people's premises to see how their argument works out

My point is "you dont get me because of my huge aryan brain" is a totally useless statement

pointless

So wait lateral people notice interconnected shit?

how is that bad

It isn't bad, it's good, necessary

but it also means they are less in tune with simple common sense

they tend to mistrust it, or ridicule it

and so feel no great need to bend the knee to the mass of "traditional" knowledge

not some esoteric stuff, just the way things have worked out trial and error

which may not be completely rational or completely efficient

but it's effective, proven

lateral thinkers think they know better

they are idealists

the elites are these kind of people

Know better than tradition?

that's right

that's how I feel

yeah, you are such a person

most of the people in here will be

evident growing up
