    I never said you have low EQ. You said it yourself - no objective way to measure it, and I myself have never thought about others EQ, I just recognize it as group/complex of psychological/personal traits that affect your neurological behaviour.

    However, it is interesting to me how angry/personal you seem about this argument. I’m going to assume this isn’t your first time talking about this, and getting disagreed with.

      I disagree with the entire pop psychology industries existence. It’s not personal, it’s a moral social issue.

      It’s psychological junk food that destroys people’s psychological health and turns them into self-help junkies. It’s the equivalent of people believing that McDonald’s is healthy food and they will lose weight and lower their cholesterol by consuming it.

      but hey, you like your McDs. Lots of people do.

        Your comparison is so wild… And your assumptions are not really matching my real world experience. I wish you the best, but there’s obviously no point to continue

          this entire thread you’ve postured yourself as ‘above me’.

          I love it. Do they have a test for delusions of social superiority? How do you think you’d score on it? [

          i have this other radical idea… maybe your real world experience isn’t all that there is in the world… maybe other people experience the world differently?

          and yeah there is no point to ‘continue’ when you can’t acknowledge that your experience is inherently limited and flawed and is likely only shared with a tiny percentage of other people who are very similar to you. which is what is called in-group bias!

            Just because I try to be respectful and talk like an adult, does not mean I’m postering myself above others. If my way of talking makes you think less of yourself, that really isn’t my problem.
