You understand how something works when you are an expert in a given area. And you are not expert in other areas, so you don't understand them. You definitely don't understand everything by being autistic. And there are a ton of neurotypical people who are experts in something and do innovation. :D

People who are "more intelligent" than you (I would prefer to say people with wider perspective) don't look at you and tell themselves "that person is stupid". That thought of "this is dumb" or "this person is stupid" always comes when something doesn't make sense. But when you have the wider perspective, it makes perfect sense to you (why people do things you wouldn't do and so on).

What exactly is the formula, the theory or the entire science that allows you to measure and sum up all the "damage"? It's wonderful how you can take your subjective judgments and then pretend it is a way to decide something is objectively good or bad. Frankly, you have no standard of what is good or bad and the concept of "damage" is also nonsense. Something can be a hinderance to your goal or "damaging" to your agenda and that's it. There is nothing beyond that. If your agenda is some vision of the world, then you are in conflict with all the people with different visions. Simple as that. There is no right or wrong vision as there is no right or wrong desire. There is no objective good in preserving a specie or natural resource, plus there are always some opportunities/possibilities lost in foreclosing that path.

Thank you for this highly personal testimony! I love the honest bluntness of it, especially because so many people can wrongly assume that there's arrogance or exaggeration behind this kind of account. As someone who also tested at 133, I can relate to so many things. The analogies portion of the GRE exam was very frustrating because I found plausible connections between multiple answers. Your "think dumb" response really speaks to that frustration and to feeling like I lack "commonsense." I'm also struck by others' confidence compared to my own hesitation. As an academic, I'm constantly surprised by how efficiently my peers breeze through tasks without worrying about the details of them. I'll peer review articles and spot endless errors and flaws that would cause delays if it were my work. I'll examine a PhD thesis and be the only one on the committee asking for revisions to mistakes that I thought were serious. Consequently, my own work gestates for far too long with perfectionism and it feels like the world marches by in confident mediocrity. I think wisdom is learning to develop compromise to better understand when details matter in the grand scheme. That's something I think gifted people might overlook earlier in life.

When we talk about neurotypicals, the questions is usually against who? Because neurodivergent group is a wide group having people of different kinds and how each group views neurotypicals vary. Again i think it's unfair bunching all neurotypicals together since there area cool bunch among them who are intellectuall gifted or mind the world as it is. Just saying

It gets so God #$%@ed frustrating to deal with people. I fail to see how the obvious is so obscure. Aaaarrrrggghhhhh

Abel, I was going to say that I am not that intelectually high iq person. Though , my parents do think I am. I was born with a condition of my eyesights and my hearing. I was an iliterate boy and was thought to be " un vegetal". Which is in caribean spanish to say one going to be like passive drool low iq guy. I managed despite all my difficulties to read and write in both languages on my 12 yr old. I was on special education. That all being said, I wanted to be as intelligent as posible because I feared being look down as low iq moron or a subhuman. There was a time when my ego of being high intelligence was part of my life on my late teens. But I leaent I was not that smart when I was Uni and saw some who were genuine geniuses or high archievers. I then learnt that high iq nor titles mattered much. Thet do help in soeway but your characters, your resilience , your approach to problems, your comunications, the people you are with, the enviroment you are surrounded, your values and the economic aspect are more important for one success and not necesarially only inteligence. I did met people with lesser degree snd less smarter than that archieved way more in their lives. They are married, they have kids, have a jobs they like, travel to the world or have friends and family who loves them or support them or are resilient or have wisen up though experience.All I care now is finding myself and become wiser through experience and be something positive to the world. Not necesarially something big but something that I can give that come from my "soul". It funny how caught I was to be nornal and with all that stuff to be smarter but I ended up not feeling really satisfied. Do not get me wrong I do not believe one should educate themselves or be willful ignorant. But I should strive to keep a balance.

I watch your videos on 1,5 speed

Peer pressure and keeping up with the Jones is not for me either . 😅

I dont understand the people with HIGH IQ who cannot the how works the world.. They get mold to society.. So.. I believe that HIGH IQ its just a big lie to disqualify people really gifted.. Because gifted are not being welcome to industries because they like to do wherever they want and dont follow the rules of superiors... They dont adapt..

We all know the solution to this extremely serious problem. Few of us are going to say it, but I know many of you are thinking it.

This is not said as a form of judgement, purely an observation. Neurotypicals are clearly a less evolved/less sophisticated subspecies of human; more primitive, barely functioning beyond base and myopic emotional instincts. They're probably an evolutionary dead-end, harboring a form of functioning that was successful tens of thousands of years ago. But it will take a long time to evolve them out of the gene pool naturally. We uregently need to accelerate the process though because their neurology coupled with our technology will almost certainly lead to the annihilation of our entire species (and possibly planet) very, very soon.

Excellent video and insights, thank you.

ِAmaizing , this explains it all , Thank you.

I appreciate the insights. I just bought your book. I do find that accepting that most people are indifferent is extremely painful. It’s something I have felt anguish over my life and have not been able to fully accept it as truth. It is a heavy burden to bear thinking it is my mantle to get people to care about important things. It’s hard to comprehend that people, in fact, do not care and there is a part of me that cannot fully accept that as of yet. Any advice on how to accept that people don’t care but still push forward to trying to make the world a better place?

I have .94

My index finger was 8.5 cm And my ring finger was 9.0 cm so that means i have 0.5 ratio what does it mean ?

I left school at age 14. Just couldn’t stand it any longer. So went to the office, filled out the form as I wasn’t legal age to leave, I forged my mother’s signature and walked out. Couldn’t believe how simple it was, thought the school was quite stupid. I was hyperlexic as a small child, excelled at everything in my first year of school, but as no one knew I was autistic, I struggled in not understanding what school was good for. Schools were not structured then for a divergent brain that is bored out of their wits. Think it has improved these days, thankfully as my young son was separated at age 8 to classes for higher learning abilities. He has an IQ of 165.

I never fit in, I was always considered “strange”. I never wanted to do what “all the kids” were doing. During recess I worked on writing a book or on my art. I was always asking questions and I too was worried about major world issues when I was very young. I enjoyed fantasy stories and science fiction. I used to fix broken items in our house like the VCR. I was the one who could “figure things out”. School was always extremely boring to me. I always did well despite never studying, and that includes college. I would skim the reading and half ass the assignments. Still ended with a 3.5 gpa despite drinking through most of my college years. People were frustrating to me and I tended to avoid them. My friend and I would derogatorily refer to them as “humans” lol. I’m constantly inventing things in my head, like apps or solutions to problems. I see patterns everywhere. I like to stay up late and need very little sleep. Being of “higher intelligence” has been more of a curse to me. I’ve been largely isolated and lonely, and despondent with so much in the world that to me has obvious and easy solutions. But I never saw myself as “smart”. In fact, I felt stupid because I was always frustrated and bored. My overthinking impeded me quite a bit.

wow

I was tested in 3rd grade and my score was 136. I have been told so much untrue and misleading information about how my life , sucess and education level would be predestined for me and nothing would be challenging for me to learn or excel at and the world is at my feet. Nothing could have been more b.s. and further from truth. I am intelligent and have multiple talents in mechanical abilities and musical talent. I also suffer from emotionally disturbed feelings and addiction issues have torn apart almost every aspect of my life. Your story sounds very familiar to me. I wish you the best of luck, sincerely. William.

06:40 - I am like this too. But what if you get used to such patterns, put down your answers and suddenly a question is coming up that is one of these "out of the box" questions. Will you overcome the security of being used to the pattern from before? I find it interesting how you explain your mind "exploding into many branches of possibilities", that is similar for me too. People have always criticized me for that. For that reason, at some point I saw them as prey. Learned to switch from autistic to an imitation of neurotypical. It took me years and turning to Christ to overcome this. Today, grown up, I can enjoy this thing as a gift, like you describe it. It is tough to be that way, but I think I would not give it up, if this would be somehow possible.

Very recognizable. I feel that not to multitask gets the same reaction.

How smart are you that in order to get a high IQ score you have to tell your brain, think Dumb😂😂😂

Just ‘think dumb’ because in some areas of life that approach is all you need to be successful, Donald Trump is a master of that technique.

Loved hearing this! What a relief. I can often feel terrible that I can’t help seeing so many people as stupid. Well, I also get that I have my share of stupid at times. But shit, so many people excel at stupid it’s hard to take. The world is a mess because of it.

Not as dumb as you

I can watch your videos again and again. Thank you Abdel!!!!! Greetings from GER!:)

A good IQ test today is if you got yourself injected with spike proteins or not.

Can I ask what was your first IQ score? I just took one myself online and got 116, wondering if that could mean I might be able to reach 130 if I try again… my first time doing these

this came in at the perfect time, i have been disheartened at work because my ideas kept getting shot down. After seeing this i decided to go try out my ideas anyway, and it worked, so now im going to actually get some enthusiasm for my work back. thank you.

I think projection is not that big a problem compaired to how they treat us... they have tastes, we have caprices. they have opinions, we have obsessions. they just defend themself, we have fit with no reason. They know amd understand, we need to be told what is what. it's not projection or perception, it's a different set of rules. and if we do to them the same shit they do to us, we are told that those are shitty things to do to 'people'... as we are not 'people'...

The mass-energy interconversion was brought about by many people before Einstein.

I ♥️ your videos. So right about being ready to fight. Like many neurodivergents I was either being walked over or trying to change the majority of the people I encountered. So many insights in these videos. Thanks 🙏🏼

Check out MBTI, Sensors are the NT and intuestives are the neurodivergent. Using the cognetive functions from carl jung explains a lot of the dynamics u see today between the people. Check it out. U are very likely an INTJ.

Great. I think it’s worth thinking about how neurodivergents are able to act in the world considering their minority status and under what conditions. For example many highly intelligent nd’s may have had in the past little understanding about how the things they invented might be used, so they could hardly be expected to consider nt differences in things like ethical behaviour.

Money is not neutral. A fungible medium of exchange is potentially neutral, but that's not really what we have, is it?

"they can not care for what they not see" 7:17

Could somehow understand what your motivation/idea with that talk was, but my favorite in that starts at 8:53, very simple, nearly "obious" analogy, yet so easy, that it is great again. I love understanding in pictures.

Academic credentials prove compliance, indicate knowledge, age say nothing of understanding.

The best you can do in the face of arbitrary interference is to ensure the basics and be sure you have your priorities straight.

Rational people, typically intelligent, never really disagree when all the variables are accounted for. Normal people, however, are based on feelings rather than rational and will impulsively reject logic if it conflicts.

They're only doing things right in the context of being compliant to a profoundly sick society. The way they do things should not be the right way. Participation is perpetuation.

Those industrial and commercial systems do not need to be that way at all. In fact it would be better for everyone if they were not - if intelligent people were allowed to play with the systems and the prices to find better ways. You've put the cart before the horde. Make intelligence a criteria for management and we'll get systems that allow for experimentation, iterative innovation, god forbid - even freedom.

Wow. So much hate and discrimination both in the video and in the comment section. Come on now. We should be treating eachother with compassion and respect.

we have a duty to invent things that will be put to positive use even with a compleate lack of understanding

Thanks ...

They say that people with an A at the beginning of their name do better in school. You have two A's.

I want to be friends with you so badly.

My brother is always way up in his head figuring out and analyzing everything. He can't enjoy anything because he has to pick it apart. Nature, music, art, literature... He's always stressed and missing out on life.
