What a sign of intelligence that most confuse as stupidity?

Responding to someone’s political rant by just saying “okay.”

Not replying to stupid people or agreeing with them without a debate because you know they’re too stupid to understand

Pausing before giving an answer to a more serious question. Waiting to collect your thought and organize it before answering is, to me, the more intelligent thing to do. However, the pause can be misconstrued as one not understanding or being slow. In today’s climate it especially rings true.

Wealth or socioeconomic status. “Oh he has a really nice house, dress nice, has a mecedes… so he must be smart.

My friend is a mensa genius, 40 and lives with his mama. People close to him say “he’s so smart, that making money doesn’t make sense to him.”

I’ll even say admitting when you don’t know is one that comes to mind for me.
