I'm hitting a point where having conversations with 99% of people can't really teach me anything, because I'm always way more informed on the topic than other people, and only resorting to increasingly obscure and esoteric authors can leave a dent on my world view. In fact, often reading isn't even helpful, and I have to theorize and research to make any progress. Has anyone else reached this point? Do you enjoy being at the cutting edge of whatever you study, or did you have more fun learning the basics?

Enjoy it. Use your eldritch abilities to bludgeon midwits to half-brained paste. Then write them a beautiful eulogy.

Of course you'll never learn anything. All you ever babble about are non-scientific topics and you can't stomach a scientific treatment of topics which allow this. The more esoteric it is the the higher the likelihood no one has any idea to convey. Even treating everything as esoteric means you still have to perform and since you rely on others to teach you instead of learning yourself of course you are left complaining about iq and seeking echo chambers to reinforce your existing patterns.

>tldr just move on. This is the most difficult step. Take the day to make complaint threads and see if any of what I said makes sense.

Blessed are the zoomers, begin your complaints of genA.

You know esoteric is an adjective with its own meaning and doesn't just mean stuff like kabbalah right?

>nothing scientific
>you know like this other non-scientific thing
>you know right?

This is what metaphysics does to you.

This has to be a simulation. Nobody I talk to can tell me anything I don't already know. If I ask them a question to which I don't know the answer, they either dodge the question somehow, or pretend they didn't even hear it. If I know the answer, then they just regurgitate it word for word, as if they just took it from my head and can't expand on it. If they ask me a question and I don't know the answer, but I make up some shit anyway, they'll always know it's not right, even though they can't tell the correct answer either. Whoever made this crappy fever dream, fuck your bullshit, I'm not playing your games

u think u smort ha?
u think u smort? NO
U FOOL U FOOL LIEK EVERYBODY ELSE

But if you wanna get smort you'll NEVER be as the world is filled with so much knowledge that eternity wouldn't be enough to get to know it all. Show some humbleness anon, reject your hubris and find other interlocutors, surely they know something worthwhile which you don't. For we're re ιδιῶται (those who don't know).

>I'm always way more informed
Who cares? I can't remember one conversation I had recently (outside of courses and practical discussion) where how informed one of us was came into play at all. I talk about how I feel and think about things and ask the other person how they feel and think about things, and usually those things are events, people, places etc. we've shared experience of, and not fields of study or whatever. If someone brings up an author it's only to represent their own ideas with a quote or such, then we leave the author behind. I don't really talk to people to learn objective things beyond "Do you know how this thing works?" or "Where is hall C765?"

Damn anon are you actually autistic, or am I? After writing down my reaction like this I can't tell anymore
