I was playing a game and throughout the thousands of matches I have played that I look back to I realized most players are stupid. I was in a discord server full of players who played the game and they were apparently high ranked players in the game. They argued they knew more than the developers and didn't know many things about the game. They tried downplaying it as "foundation" or "theory" despite me showing from inside game and their official YouTube channel where they have videos outright telling you that they designed things a certain way for certain reasons. Throughout this I realized this confirms what I've always wanted to reject and it explains why players make boneheaded decisions.Video games were just an example or a real life case study of something I've noticed in other places. The more I learn the more I see people don't actually know anything about stuff. When I was new in a game I didn't know anything and you might trust more experienced players to provide constructive feedback, but the more I learned the more I saw over 90% of players don't really know anything even if they flame you for making the actual responsible choice.It's like how Ignaz Semmelweis was deemed insane for saying that washing your hands before medical procedures would prevent infections just for him to be proven right after he passed away after being put in a mental institution.When I was taking a class to learn a trade I had to learn a bunch of physics and I got into back and forth with my instructor (he actually knew what he was talking about as we were arguing semantics kinda funny), but my I annoyed people by being very ambitious. I wasn't a show off, but I was very engaged. I asked questions, I studied, I always wanted to gain legitimate comprehension. Some of my classmates would say "Leave mediocrity at the door" but then take such an issue with someone striving for greatness. Always trying to influence you to adopt their mindset and habits.
I have watched videos about people reacting to the job market. Over 5 years ago I was speaking out about how weird the hiring process was. I pointed out very weird requirements and how tedious applying for hundreds of jobs was. Why do you need years of experience to work a fast food job? Actually? Why is it someone who may not be here legally works but citizens struggle? I am aware in December 2024, Elon Musk made a tweet exposing how he hires Indians on H1B over Americans. When I suspected before that though how things weren't making sense I was dismissed. Now? People like me are validated but there isn't an apology (I'm not losing sleep over it I just understand everyone saying you're wrong means nothing)I bring it up thinking the more aware and conscious we are we could fix things before it gets worse, but overtime I feel this futility to even care anymore. If the world is destined to burn then I should just prepare for that instead of trying to stop someone from trying to start the fire.
>>539800343Most people ought to be dead including me
>>539800343If you didn't realize most people are retarded sheep before you turned 10 then you're probably the same.
>>539801946You're saying you're stupid or something?
>>539800343Holy Dunning-Kruger effect
>>539802409When I was 10 I was playing with other kids and watching Super Mario Bros Z on the internet showing the other kids at school when we had a substitute teacher.Pretty pathetic to make a statement like yours thinking kids are having existential thoughts like this going to school everyday. Kids aren't going to work to realize many people fake it till they make it, so I have to assume you're thinking of a general idea out of arrogance instead of speaking to lived experiences interacting with the world around you.
>They argued they knew more than the developersAs someone who is making a trading card game I know for a fact the moment it's out in the public there will be somebody better than me at it

>>539800343>I always wanted to gain legitimate comprehensionThis is what sets you apart from most people. The vast majority of people just want to fit in. They only learn what helps them to do that.
>>539802621nta but I started experiencing deep existential dread thinking about death at age 3. I detested going to school, it felt like slavery. maybe my troubled household was the trigger for this. don't take your happy childhood for granted, mine felt like hell.
>>539802621I knew people were stupid sheep by the time I was 6 watching them listen to the teacher and line up like soldiers.
>>539802621>kids are having existential thoughts like thisi remember questioning the point of things way before 10.
>>539802621>>539803062I think he's describing self awareness and existential introspection.Seems like it took him 20 years to become self aware. He's like one of those nigger babies who can't recognize his own reflection at age 8.OP you're a far below average human by white standards. You lack self awareness and what little self awareness you eventually manifested has only given you an Asiatic tier level of main character syndrome.The next step is to realize you don't matter either.
>>539802409>>539803119Do you always jerk yourself off like this?
>>539803062You're right. I mean, I was aware of things, but as a kid I was just living life. Alot of things are new experiences and you just focus on that
>>539803287NPC says what?
>retarded autistic child develops main character syndrome after extended exposure to similar autists in computer game discords Well, could have been worse. They could have trooned you out lil twinky.
>>539803328Enlighten me. What does an NPC say?
>>539800343WHat you've observed is true to an extent but a wiser anon would parse that data with midifiers such as >How many of these 'stupids' are just trolling me?>How many of them are just 'playing dumb' so they don't really have to tell me anything important that they want to capitalize on?>How important is 'knowing everything about a subject' vs. 'having a room temp iq and a working knowledge?>How important is 'just having fun'?Many variables although, i'll admit, i agree with your initial assumption more than I disagree.
>>539803301>I am very smart Being uhiq doesn't fill one with the sense of smug midwits project; it fills you with despair of being in a world of imbeciles. Half the fun of playing a game is figuring it out. Why ruin it for them if it isn't a case of saving good people from imminent danger in an assymetric covert war
>>539803221To be honest, you're reinforcing the general sentiment. This wasn't a competition. I don't think you could explain something like an I-Form in American Football, right? How would a 6 year old child be able to know if a coach in the sport knew route concepts or how biology works?You're discussing people being NPCs realizing it at a young age which you could see by watching other kids blindly follow trends.Anyway, you reinforce my sentiments as I was talking about something far deeper like not knowing alot of the world's problems are preventable and people, some of the world's brightest minds, were warning leaders of it. How the professionals aren't exactly all that knowledgeable. How will a 7 year old know that a doctor's advice isn't always accurate? Such as: a doctor prescribing pain killers for back pain and surgery then saying you should eat an apple? How would a child know that some things may be true but aren't proven or lack the scientific confirmation or study? Well, this wasn't a competition but to turn this into discussing validity through how old you were and I'm sure you know how ignorant that kind of is because circumstances vary from person to person is just another example of how most people are dumb. Why take people like you seriously and listen to your "statement" that attempts to establish something when you could be the last person who should be talking this way?
>>539803725>How would a 6 year old child be able to know if a coachQuestioning the coach or doctor will get you a mark on your permanent record. The system does not need or want your ilk. "He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous."
>>539803605Good things to consider. I've been able to recognize patterns and see things play out, so many of them based off what I know aren't trolling.I have played stupid and not say a ton of information to see who knows a good amount on a particular subject. People are unable to answer most of the time. When I do talk they express feeling overwhelmed and are consistently unable to perform the way I do.When I told someone stuff I knew regarding a game and its mechanics they told me they played way better. Keep in mind, many games are team oriented so there are ton of unknown variables/factors I can't know about to know how those players perform or the context in which they perform like someone at their job under certain management.Having fun to me is the most important thing but what fun to everyone is varies.

>>539803907Most kids won't truly know how bad it is because they have limited interaction with the world.In Avatar: The Last Airbender Zuko didn't know how the world feared the Fire Nation until he saw things for himself. The lie that the Fire Nation wanted to expand to share its greatness and wealth with the world or this idea about honor when he saw his dad's generals was willing to sacrifice new recruits.Kids don't know how nasty things truly are until they go out into the world
