I think the same counts for a certain presidential candidate. A lot of people say he is just dumb but personally I think he has to be pretty intelligent to get to where he is.
- taco_emoji 2y agoI think it's a mistake to believe that it requires more than average intelligence to con a great number of people. The reason the world mostly works is because we all mostly trust each other. A relative handful of assholes and bullies will easily find ways to take advantage of that trust, but that doesn't make them intelligent.
- anonzzzies 2y agoConning people, being loud, bullshitting 100% of the time, taking massive risks to the point of getting locked up are not signs of intelligence. They just mean you have no clue about the consequences of your actions and you might get lucky to get away with it.
