Fpbp claimed
i guess it depends on what you value in intelligence
What do Estonians value?
In our society money= intelligence
idk what rest of us think on about this but i personally prefer intelligence focused on existential matters, so a more philosophical approach
i'm not saying its superior to anything else like business-smart or tech-smart or w/e
Tesla was a genius.
none of those people were geniuses. when i think of someone who is a genius in something i imagine someone who is so good it's almost inhuman. like beethoven, kim peek, or davinci. a lot of these "geniuses" we have today are just faggots who got lucky like steve jobs or people who are just really good at something
Define intelligence ?
you know just saying fpbp lets us all know how much of a fag you are, so thank you for that service to the community.
Genius:
- Someone who does or invents or creates things that no one else could
Not Genius:
- Anyone with a 500 IQ who spends his entire life on Sup Forums
- Any run-of-the-mill scientist who's primarily famous for going on TV and explaining science shit to regular idiots
- Billionaires who pay other people to invent shit and then take all the credit
- Anyone who considers philosophy a genuine intellectual discipline which is remotely on par with any hard science
Maybe Genius (but more likely just lucky psychopaths):
- People who successfully manipulate the general public into buying their retarded shit and become billionaires by exploiting the psychological weaknesses of the average idiot.

You can witness genius, conduct it, have stroke of genius but its not a moniker, what you're looking for is savant.

Arne Beurling was a bigger genius.
Cracked the S&H T52 machine which was way more advanced and complicated than the Enigma.
And he did it in two weeks with just a pen and paper.
True Geniuses:
Leonardo da Vinci
Nikola Tesla
Isaac Newton
Dudes who built the Pyramids
