This can't be overstated. Too many in the manosphere circles nowadays come off as intelligence snobs. They spent their intelligence capital on non social skills and somehow they think they're smarter than many of their peers.
They drop their "high" IQ numbers like dice on a board yet can't even talk to a woman or strike up a basic conversation without getting anxious.
I know many people who don't follow politics and won't come off as "smart", unless you get to know them and see they have allocated their intelligence to something other than academics, politics, or philosophy. They may be good at hunting, fishing, outdoors activities, being handy with their hands, a trade, and so on.
Intelligence isn't necessarily just an IQ number, how much one analyzes politics and religion, or how good they are at math.
