    Isn’t “esoteric people” an accurate description?

      Eh. It would imply those people are mysterious or difficult to understand. They’re not, they’re just stupid.

        Hm okay. English is not my native language. I’ve checked this with a dictionary and found it to be an adequate description, even discussed this with ChatGPT. It pointed out that this can also be understood in the way you’ve described it.

        What I meant were people who practise in esotericism, like briefly described here. Besides “stupid”, what do you suggest to describe such people?

        Also, thanks for pointing that out!
