I can be controversial or annoying because I always require proof and facts for whatever people are saying/claiming. This has gotten me into a lot of heated debates, even got myself banned from “YouShouldKnow” for saying I need more proof of Israeli’s genocide (that was long ago, got more proof and changed my mind). If I do not agree on some subjectively obvious topic, please do not assume I’m being unfriendly, evil or a troll. I do try my best to approach any subject with neutral and open mind. Just call me autistic with OCD

  • 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.


  • Just because you can’t objectively measure amount of love between two people, doesn’t mean it’s invalid theory. You are overthinking this too much, using weird arguments and then try to push a narrative that says “anything that isn’t standardized is meaningless”. By the same logic, pretty much every psychological/personal trait is a buzzword that cannot be objectively measured, and so it’s meaningless. It’s intellectually lazy argument.

    And no, empathy or ethics or emotions are not race-based (referring to your previous argument where it could be different between groups)

    Yeah, I strongly disagree. It’s a genuinely valid way to figure out someone better. While the tests and all that aren’t really standardized, the idea is quite clear, and the idea works. Just because it was made mainstream, does not mean it’s suddenly bad. Just because the origins are sketchy, does not mean the theory is invalid. It just essentially means one’s ability to objectively assess your own and other’s emotions, feel empathy (not just understand it, but feel it), low emotional intelligence people would be less rational about their own and everyone’s else’s emotions. You simply cannot argue against this. It’s a skill/mechanism that makes society function better.

    I genuinely don’t understand your argument. Are you saying it’s not a valid measurement system because humans came up with it? Just like everything else? What is your actual argument besides emotional Intelligence as a metric besides that it was created by someone you don’t like?
