Yes. Nothing to say that a person's intelligence translates into them being liked. In fact to often they are not liked. When other people have beliefs or ideas and the intelligent person shows them how they ar e wrong, to often it's a case of kill the messenger.
Unfortunately, making mistakes in the little details is endemic to the majority of INTJs. It doesn't matter... it's better to give minutiae for people to quibble about, than for them to get frustrated about the absence of conceptual/strategic flaws and start making weird misrepresentations to quibble about.
This is an understandable belief. People often identify with their strengths, and want others to recognize them on that merit. If we were to recognize the strengths of others, and try to relate on some common ground, we could be more likable. But it's more likely we try to show off our own strengths. What's the point in externalizing our beliefs anyway? Is it some sort of token of proof that our minds were skillful enough to construct it in the first place?
In my case it's to make things work better than they currently do.
Attributing disagreeable traits to a fundamental, functional, and unalterable capacity makes it easier to dismiss the person as being beyond reform. It's a lazy excuse for not trying to get past people's bullshit, to what's both interesting and dynamic in them.
Though I wouldn't blame them. We do have a limited time on this earth, and while it might be a good investment to temper oneself through the friction of life's opposition, we don't always have the time.
Why do we INTJs bother parading our insights? It's always frustrating when people interject.
That's true... although, attributing disagreeable traits to certain bands of the intelligence spectrum, like all biases can unwittingly narrow the range of experiences one will ever encounter.
Can we get back to the topic now?
