Narcissists
DO commonly treat those who they get a "smart/intelligent" vibe from
with disrespect and condescension. By the time they're adults, they've
been doing it for at least 10 years straight. They do it for the obvious
reasons of ego, control, and their domination issues. They also don't
want to get caught; if you're too smart, not only are you going to be
hard to manipulate, but you're going to see through the smoke.
