Just as the title says. I was proud to be an INTJ until I came to this sub. Many people here are lovely, but more often than not there are assholes who believe they are superior or of higher intelligence than others based on superficial nonsense. For instance, if you play or enjoy sports you must be an airhead. If you are attractive and put effort into your appearance you are shallow and stupid. It’s so aggravating. There’s nothing wrong with being fit, and there’s nothing wrong with caring how you look. It’s practically common knowledge that being more attractive and more active opens more opportunities. You would think that people who are analytical and deep thinkers would come to the conclusion that judging people based on shallow stereotypes is dumb. The absolute r/iamverysmart and r/notlikeothergirls energy in a lot of posts here is just... ugh. I love being a critical thinker! I love being an INTJ. But the Edgelord attitude some people here have is so offputting. “I don’t care about other people’s trivial, softhearted emotions” - that doesn’t make you smarter or better. It just makes you an asshole.

Or “Not trying to be a jerk/not trying to be harsh, but [insert brash and insensitive comment that is very discouraging and, more often than not, rude. When all the op wanted was feedback or to share something they did]”

Not expecting positive responses since this is not really a positive post. I hope everyone is having a good day regardless, this is just an internet post and I mean no ill will towards anybody.

Edit: because some people are trying to argue with me for some reason? This is just an opinion. I do not believe MBTI is an exact science. I do not believe I am better than anyone, even the people I am talking about in this post. We all have our share of flaws. I am ONLY pointing out a specific type of behavior I see often in this sub, I am not trying to seem holier than thou.
