Years ago, I couldn't understand how the intellectuals were able to quote so many authors. I tried to formulate hypotheses, for example I thought that the intellectual had to be smarter than me and he also had to possess a very good memory and a faster reading speed.
Then years later, I listened to a podcast about political philosophy, where one university teacher explained one curious thing, he was discussing Ayn Rand that day. What came out was that he hadn't read the author and expected the students to comment it for him, then he told that he just listened to one of his friends and took his opinion on Rand, without even reading the author. The teacher told the students that he shad trust in his friend, and therefore he trusted every opinion of his friend, so no need to read the books that his friend was explaining to him.
That day, I understood the secret of the intellectual, the secret is simple, they do not exist.
Years of development on the neuroscience field never explained what are the cognitive capabilities of the intellectual, nobody knows why the intellectual is who he is. I know the secret, the secret is that the intellectuals are just average normies and they don't read, the secret is that intellectuals don't read and they don't study so they have more time to statusmax and socialmax.
