How do you know you are speaking to an intelligent person?

How do you know you are speaking to an intelligent person?

You ask them to justify their opinions.

They don't freak out when you disagree with them.

They utilize something other than emotional pleas, shaming, or personal attacks in discussion.

These are all pretty good.

They wear atheist shirts and sports long unshaved beards.

they talk about how they watch rick and morty

can someone give me a quick rundown of this guy

they open their mouths wide

They listen.

they talk about how much they love weed and conspiracy theories.

They often pause and think before responding, rather then chirping back at you immediately.

They speak honestly, back up their arguments and hear you out.

If they mistake nice for kind they are not an intelligent person

When you don't know what they are going to say before they're finished saying it.

What's the difference?

I heard an expression "to mistake kindness for weakness" but what do you mean?

this is beautiful

Niceness breeds dishonesty, kindness is displayed without using fake smiles or ulterior motives

The person will not identify as the following.

Liberal
Democrat
Social Justice
Anti Fa
Communist
Slut
Feminist

They also won't claim to be high IQ from a Facebook quiz.

Niceness is doing what a person would like. Kindness is doing good onto them.

Call them a nigger

If they chimp out, then they're a brainlet.

They have a masters degree at minimum.

nice and kind are synonyms but i suppose nice connotes politeness whereas kindness connotes tenderness.

an individual may be polite (nice) but not a caring underneath that polite veneer.

I think romania is just acting spergy for some reason. probably because they friendzoned someone or got friendzoned. because that's a really stupid way to gauge someone intelligence, mistaking niceness for kindness.
