A being can be considered intelligent when it can communicate the message "I am tired of your crap, shut up."

That is in fact the pivotal moment in self-awareness.

Plenty of extremists believe that president is intelligent. They must be right. They feel it is true.

This is the part where we have to discuss where insanity impacts intelligence.

It was discussed here some time ago. Only after the age of 16 does a logical (adult) brain take over from the impulsive (emotional) (or reptilian) brain. But for many, this does not happen until 24 years old. And for some adults, it never happens.

Some learn facts before they have a conclusion. An example of an adult.

Many others just know simply by what someone ordered them to believe. Since the emotional (impulsive) brain likes it, then it must be true. "We don't need no stick'n facts" or "I am a conservative so I believe that" or "He is just a nigga". Classic examples of adult who is still a child.

If the facts don't stick, it must be a trick.
