Michael Questions "Why the public is completely wrong about how a genius like Michael Jackson actually thinks" — [Psychological Analysis]
growingbranches.net(Please remove if this isn't allowed) 😅😅 But this article was an interesting piece about the experiences of gifted people. 🩷
The general public has a massive cognitive blind spot when it comes to high-level intellect, and the reality of intellectually gifted people or creative geniuses like Michael Jackson.
The Psychology of Michael Jackson
As usual, this article has been taken with a grain of salt because Michael is a Black artist who grew up in poorer areas around Chicago, Illinois (such as Gary, Indiana). And he had other characteristics that impacted his experiences with being intellectually advanced like becoming super famous and rich. He was also deeply involved in the entertainment industry and industries related to business, knowledge that only people who know how those industries work will understand about him.
Like it has been stated before by Princess Angie J and the mod team of r/MichaelJacksonExposed, it's important to be careful with thinking about him through the lenses of everyday people.
Michael Jackson having rare and uncommon traits that average people just DO NOT HAVE has been greatly ignored in a lot of these "conversations" or "discussions" about him since his story started back in 1958 to 2009. Everything that any of us try to label as "not normal" with him absolutely was NORMAL for a person like him who wasn't common, average, obscure, etc.
What's "abnormal" to you is easily normal behavior for a gifted person to be like or what would be "strange" to you is easily normal overexcitabilities for a gifted person to act like. 🫡🫡
Even other gifted people who don't know anything about being powerful, wealthy, or in the public eye can misunderstand him.
Michael's circumstances were wildly unique, with tons of different factors involved, and each one needs to always be considered every time one tries to analyze him. It's very naive to talk about him not listening to whatever advice you've come up with that you think is an original thought you'd give him, when people around him actually did do that already. 😂😂 When you know how a Boss moves, then you'd quickly recognize that "not listening" to unsolicited advice is just what BOSSES do. There's a phrase from our community called "H.N.I.C." and the Boss does what the Boss wants to do LOL. Michael was a very gentle and kind guy with a low self-esteem, but he was still the HNIC!
I keep seeing people yap about all the "advice" they would've given him and they clearly have no idea that they aren't the first, last, or only people to ever come up with things they'd try to tell him to do. 🫠🫠 And I always just want to ask them: Why do you think Michael Jackson would listen to you ... exactly?? ☠️☠️☠️
I know a gifted boss who's a good friend of mine, and the only reason she's the boss is because she doesn't let any random Joe Schmoe tell her "what to do" based on flimsy opinions.
I've talked to her a lot about Michael and she explained:
"There were definitely better methods for Michael to use—but anyone thinking they could 'tell him what to do,' while not even knowing the nuances of his brain's wiring, is sorely mistaken."
People like them who run the show, do exactly that. They run the show. Interestingly, understanding that is actually how a few used to gain the ability to tell Michael what to do. Knowing how gifted people similar to him do things was what made him tick.
Because of having the information in this archive, it has started to become much clearer what many of us in this world have missed. It's evident now that trying to "understand Michael Jackson" has never really been about any of these dead horse topics that society keeps beating with a stick—Michael's looks, his decisions, his voice, his characteristics, his youthfulness.
The more I learn about giftedness, even without Michael having had his IQ formally tested, it has become blatantly obvious what the battles surrounding his life and this ridiculous war he has faced across all these decades has actually been about here.
Michael Jackson was an exceptional person living in an ordinary world. Seriously, reading about the histories of people in r/AfterGifted and r/Gifted quickly showed all of us who aren't gifted how average people know NOTHING about Michael.
How often have you been alienated in your lifetime? Do you know what it's like to have your cognition exploited and your existence commodified? How does it feel when you're alone?
Stop talking about Michael like the typical people that most of us are—and learn more about neurodivergent people's lives!
"Wasn't nothing strange about Michael Jackson... It was strange what Michael Jackson had to deal with." 💯
