    There is no truth to the idea that brilliant work is only done by the young, and objecting to your pseudoscience and ageism is not merely because it “Makes me feel bad” but because it is bunk. Pure and simple.

    Your evidence is that he hasn’t shocked the world of physics´or neuroscience, most of the people who are in the triple nine society or otherwise score super high on IQ tests, even when done as legitimately as possible, don’t.
    The reason he is a grifter is because he is using the claim that he is a super genius to grift, not because all smart things are done by 40 or because you can’t have a legitimately high IQ (Or a lot of actual intelligence, which a high IQ has very little to do with) without making huge and important discoveries (Idiots have made important discoveries, geniuses have lived their lives not doing so)

      Did this hit a nerve? Are you a misunderstood aging genius who is just about to make their mark on the world? I don’t disagree with much of what you’ve been saying, but almost all of it is a response to what you imagine me saying rather than what I’m actually saying.

      I can tell you one thing, I know that I’m not personally a genius because I get baited into this kind of shit all the time when I should have learned my lesson a thousand times over at this point. Like, I specifically mentioned age 50, the weird grifter in question is 46, and yet you have inexplicably chosen 40 as the age that I have magically designated as the cutoff for intelligence. At age 40 and one minute you’re just drooling and shitting your pants until you die. Obviously.

        If you don’t want people to call your posts stupid don’t post stupid shit? This isn’t about a nerve being struck, it’s just that you hold dumb beliefs and post about them dumbly.
