IAN is the average product of leftist media who has leftist "issues" talking points instead of a thinking brain
This is my Gen X brother. Quite literally, and ironically, one of the smartest people I've ever met - - skipped from 3rd to 7th grade, dominated the standardized tests they tried to give him, and had every branch of the military fighting for him to join into their advanced engineering programs.
Reddit rotted his brain and he just repeats leftist talking points. It's incredibly frustrating.
Having almost lived that myself and seeing it in another guy, I can guarantee his attitude stems from that early success.
Depending on the school and the competition, being "smart" in elementary and middle isn't always a stunning accomplishment in the grand scheme of things. If you let a kid think he's too smart based on those metrics alone, he's gonna have a hell of a time later when he finds out he still has to work and isn't always going to be the smartest person in the room.
For some, school is easy. For a lot of those same people, realizing that it was their only strength takes a lot of experience to realize and accept. School in its current form can easily be gamed by the right type of mind, but that mind isn't always going to be the one thinking logically and critically when it comes to real problems.
This is true. This is what happens to most smart kids. People think being a smart kid is a head start. It isn't. It's a kind of impairment that on the one hand creates a false sense of ego via academic success and on the other pushes the kid out of the social norm so they don't develop the social skills / social game skills necessary to make it in life.
No matter how much or how little success they have in life, they are forever stunted.
This is what Dr. Jordan Peterson was talking about when he gets a psychology case and sees the person has not had the socialization training at an early enough age that they are forever behind and can never truly catch up.
This is very relatable. The praise started for me at a very young age, I had a lot of interests, but not interested in socializing with kids my age. The effect was crippling anxiety and I only ever pursued things that were easy for me. Dropped out of school. Work experience and politics really corrected the ship, also the fact that I never became a leftist or a progressive.
Bingo. It's virtually the same pattern every fucking time.
We are making SO MANY MISTAKES as men in raising our children and leading our communities that it stuns the imagination.
One of the basolutely key things we must do is gather all of our kids together into mixed age groups and teach them how to socialize. We have allowed all of the members of our tribes to atomize to such a level that everyone raises their own kids.
We must change our men and teach them to be leaders of their families and members of their tribes. We must teach them that THEY MUST bring their families and kids together AT LEAST once a week and teach everyone how to socialize.
This will not only train our kids and eliminate a whole set of problems from society it will also reduce the problem of the lowest member of the hierarchy being ostrasized. Instead, with exceptions where the outsider has serious genetic level problems, will help re-onboard members of the tribe into the hierarchy in a way that improves the individuals skill levels and the tribes total strength.

No way drugs weren't involved.
When he was born, they dipped him into a bucked of lsd just for fun.
