You misunderstood my comment and are arguing with your own misunderstanding. What I implied is that some African Americans elevated to high positions, for example in science, through affirmative action initiative look like Woody Allen proclaimed a champion boxer.Neo » 14 Jul 2022, 4:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Again your understanding of this syndrome is patently wrong. It's not woody Allen questioning or claiming skill at boxing, it's woody Allen questioning if he is a successful comedian. Even those that find the man a daughter ****, tiresome, unfunny bore can't say the man isn't a successful comedian. If he thought himself unqualified then perhaps he might suffer this disorder. Progressives ignorantly diagnosing Trump with this affliction are humorous. You don't seem willing to educate yourself so, enjoy their company.
In addition imposter syndromites do not question whether they are successful. One has to be successful to have the syndrome in the first place according to the definition. For example every artist represented here is successful: their paintings are sold for big money. The question is whether they are any good.
