Gullible
How often do you think of gullible? Or think damn they’re gullible. What other characteristics does a person who is gullible have? Are they smart, not smart? Are they needy? Lost, lonely, lacking purpose and place so find it anyway they can?
What does the “Google” say. A gullible person is someone who is easily deceived or tricked, and is too trusting of others. Gullible people may be naive, unsuspecting, or innocent.
Gullibility is a lack of social intelligence, and can lead to people being taken advantage of. People who are gullible may make decisions based on unlikely claims or propositions that lack evidence.
Ah, social intelligence.
Now that is interesting!
Is gullible an insult?
Yes, the word “gullible” can be used as an insult because it can imply a lack of intelligence or judgment. It can also be used in a light-hearted way in jokes or pranks.
Okay, so I want to be careful here. Before I did the Google I started this because I had this thought. While I’ve thought or wondered over the last 8 years or so, just what it was about this person who once again occupies the Oval, that I could put my finger on to think or maybe even say, this is why he is the way he is.
I have no education for it, no factual first hand information or any data, medical, phycological or otherwise to say any of this, But I’m going to say it.
While he lacks many things, I’m going to say he has no social intelligence. None, zero. The ability to understand one’s own and others actions. He is gullible. He is naive. He lack moral character. He lack the ability to feel emotion or the cause and effect of bad and good things that can happen to a person. He is an empty silo. Which is also why, while I feel many different emotions about this person, I often find myself feeling sorry for him.
Who are his friends? Who cares about him? Who cared about him?
He has an idea of an image of what success is. It’s juvenile and singular, serves no one. Maybe not even himself.
So here comes, a young “billionaire” who showers him with who knows what and he sees what he had hoped to have. Even who he thinks or thought he was. A successful company minus all the bankruptcies and a perception of success and taking no prisoners. So his lack of social intelligence makes him gullible and vulnerable to someone like Elon. It’s fawning. It’s the not so popular guy being friends with who he thinks is the popular guy. Because he doesn’t understand the graces of social intelligence. And has a pension for mean because he doesn’t understand why he doesn’t have friends. He was a privileged wealthy white boy, why didn’t people like him?
