Intellectual Compatibility

You knew I would have something to say about it right there didn't. That exact spot 😁 Now... I could make a jab and say "Well, maybe they're overestimating their intellectual capacity but I think that would be low hanging fruit. I think it's more interesting to say that the disparity is to great that I genuinely can't tell the difference between any of you.
Hym "You also have to consider (when talking about intellectual compatibility) the fact that half of the population doesn't believe in the I.Q. literature as a reliable metric for intellectual and refer to the fact that early I.Q. tests involved American history and pop-culture trivia while ingoring entirely the fact that THEY DON'T DO THAT NOW and it now consists in 3 sections (Word association, Logic, and Number sequencing). But I don't think number sequencing relates to general cognitive ability as it relates to a certain type of innate mathematical perception OR mathematical literacy (as it can be learned and once you know the equation that solves number sequence problems you can just solve the problems). Right? They're mostly proponents of multiple intelligences theory or rely on field expertise or education. But to use education as a metric for intelligence you have to presuppose that the people who have taken the course would have done better than the people who hadn't, had the latter people taken the course (Which you WOULD but only because my staggering brilliance would embarrass the professor and he would sabotage me out of spite). Expertise is meaningless if the conclusion drawn by way of your expertise is wrong. And multiple intelligences is just 'expertise' and 'education' and 'emotional intelligence (which isn't real)' and 'creativity' as, like, a plurality of ways in which a person can be considered 'intelligent.' So, there's that."

TikTok Intellectual

Intellectual Brazilian

"Intellectual Brazilian” (Dr Urie Bezuidenhout, 2023), this phrase is used in a debate between scholars or specialists where one of them takes a disingenuous stance, despite credible evidence presented in the discussion. The other person then rebukes them, piece by piece, for their indefensible and dogmatic position, almost like exacting death by a thousand cuts. The analogy to a Brazilian wax is that, just like a Brazilian is intended to make the person look good, it is preceded by a painful experience when successive wax strips are ripped off sensitive areas of the recipient's skin. Instead of admitting that they were wrong earlier, they have their argument painfully dismantled in small pieces by the person exacting the "Intellectual Brazilian." The primary aim of this phrase is to maintain a recipient with some dignity at the end, which is considerably better than receiving an intellectual death by a thousand cuts.
The author that doggedly dismissed evidence to the contrary, was given an Intellectual Brazilian over multiple days by an expert in a terse and almost-humiliating fashion.

Costco intellectual

A person who usually lives in a safe, liberal bubble who believes you can run the world as if it's a club designed to keep out poor people. They generally take edge case, nuanced scenarios, or things that can only be done in high trust systems and try to apply them to every situation.
