Maybe it’s just me but I seem to have an entirely different idea of smart. I have a bachelors in cybersecurity and I’m in IT and honestly since moving from a rural area in the Midwest 10 years ago to Denver, aka ketamine city it is my honest opinion that the least educated redneck in my home state is 10x more intelligent than every masters and phd holding liberal I’ve met at work. Even the ones I thought required exception people to attain growing up like engineering or mathematics these people just are not intelligent. Sure they have studied their topic a lot and played the game to get their degree but I no longer think even the most respected degrees are difficult. Everyone is capable of achieving what they put their mind too. Havin the capacity to study what you enjoy isn’t that impressive to me anymore. Maybe I’m just a crazy asshole but that’s my opinion from gathering data for 30 years of life
