"not performing normally"
No that's not dysfunctional
Norm, not norm, that's not what makes it so
Einstein wasn't normal, he was perfectly functional
it had a purpose though in times where malthusian traps were more relevant
i mean, arguably
it's just a hypothesis
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/dysfunctional
"not performing normally, as an organ or structure of the body; malfunctioning."
No drive to do the very normal thing of, reproducing.
So yes, dysfunctional.
A dysfunction is when a) the species or b) the individual breaks down because of it
Or both
The definition provided says otherwise
Though, agrees with B
To an extent
that definition is terrible
Homosexuality is an individual thing
I wonder, would the holocaust have happened if America had magically sided with Germany in ww1?
A working agreed-upon definition that more people use than yours.
If I perform 1000 times better than everyone else, then I don't perform normally either
Sorry.
It's still a shit definition
The ussr might not have happened 🤔
Disagree tbh
Ok then explain
If you can think 1000 times better than everyone else
Are you dysfunctional?
That definition covers a wider range of scenarios than yours does.
Idc
Like the one you're describing right now.
Answer the question
according to one alt history scenario if germany won then france and the uk would have become syndicalist :^)
That would make them not "normal".
Which fits my definition
It would not fit yours.
Does it makes them dysfunctional though?
"not performing normally"
Yes.
They're outside of the norm.
Is it dysfunctional to be able to think 1000 times better?
@Death in June you mean Kaiserreich I'm guessing?
