They sound pretty dumb if this was the best thing they could come up with to do.
Sounds more like dunning-Krueger than anything
All kids are dumb. Intelligence is relative.
I don’t mean this to be rude but this is an incredibly shallow statement, so imma leave it at that
No worries I’ll not perceive it as rude if you have a point. Which I seriously don’t get now. You wanna say that children have equal understanding of the world as adults? Or you just don’t want me to call them dumb?
I said what you said was shallow. That’s it
Pretty moot point overall, what does that have anything to do with what I was talking about?
But you’re afraid telling me why it is shallow. And I’m telling you it’s not rude. Only reason not to give it at this point is that you actually haven’t reasoned through it properly.
I can’t tell from your broken English… but it sounds like you’re very confused and think I’m somehow afraid to tell a stranger (you) online they’re acting like a pseudo intellectual and look incredibly shallow as a person.
Smart people aren’t bullies but keep lying to yourself.
Hope that was clear enough!
You must be American. Not able to give any arguments for a statement. Just repeat the statement as if it were an argument.
I never said smart people are bullies. I said bullies are more intelligent than their direct peers. But whatever, my English is bad so it’s impossible that I understand the nuance between those statements.
Not at all what I meant but okay, you can play the victim card if that’s what’s easier for you, the bully who’s smarter than allll his peers
