      My theory is that she has used mathematical probability to predict that Homelander will destroy the country or maybe even the world. So the moves she's making are setting him up to fail.

    I love how Sister Sage's power is displayed. Not the typical "I'm smarter than everyone here's some technobabble I don't understand emotions ~click click clack~ I just hacked into the Pentagon." Instead, her superintelligence includes emotional and social intelligence. Also it's hard to tell at first because she owns so many books, but her living room is bigger than my apartment. It may not be pretty, but best believe she's got the stock market down to a science and is probably sitting on millions in a diverse stock portfolio.

      Emotional and social intelligence? Lol...I guess that's why the writers don't understand how brains work. She states that her brain never stops growing which means more neurons are constantly being added. This would have an adverse affect because too many connections would actually slow the brain down due to added distance the signals have to travel. Her ability to percieve things would be drastically altered.
      Also her powers seem to be more based on observation than actual intelligence.

    Sage is smart enough to know that those seeking power eventually ruins themselves. The smartest know that being left alone is the greatest comfort. It’s the reason that she is alone in the beginning. It’s why before homelander, she is purposefully not rich or famous even though it would be super easy for her.

    I mean, does Sister Sage feel distaste just for regular humans? Given that her powers make her intellectually superior to EVERYONE to such an insane degree, I have to imagine that, to her, the difference between a human and a "supe" is basically the difference between a monkey and a gorilla. The gorilla might be a lot stronger than the monkey, but it's still more or less on the same level (intellect-wise) compared to a person...

      i mean i guess once you become the smartest person in the world
      there's hardly anything that can really surprise you
      we can also get into the whole neurodivergent/sociopath argument regarding intelligent. Like the more intelligent you get, the more you are able to see possibilities that have never been available before; morality become a weight. You stop thinking about if doing this thing is wrong, but instead you use your intelligent to solve the puzzle that is "can i get away with doing this thing" "is there a way i can do this without leaving or suffering any consequences"
      So to us who are less intelligent, we want to cling on to morality and "everyone get what they deserve" because it is how we cope with our own helplessness. So there's a pretty vague line between are most socialpath capable of hyper intelligent, or do we call smart people socialpath because they dont conform to our own helplessness and standard of morality?
      putting it in simpler term, imagine you have that power to come up with the perfect response everytime, you know exactly how good that response is, you know exactly how the opposite side will react; you know that its so good, they cant even make a good enough comeback to counter your response. Like tell me you wouldnt abuse the hell out of something like that

      ​​​@@longphan7656 just going to add alil here, sociopathy is a learnt behavior and considering how compound v might have neurological effects besides the way supes get treated, I have two theories -
      A. Sister Sage is indeed very intelligent yet if you have lot of bad memories & experiences, she is more likely to be a sociopath(or just desensitized coz she realized how everything is messed up so doesn't care anymore) vs HL's mix of God complex+psychopathy. It's highly possible that her intelligence made her undergo an existential crisis and the lobotomy is a way to stop her mind from briefly tormenting her from the terrible memories & experiences (which can be quite painful as it's like experiencing high emotional/physical pain on a daily basis). Plus this behavior is like traumatized people cutting themselves under stress whenever they try to relax but realize that if they don't focus on something, their brain uses the free time to torment them instead. In short, it's possible that she just doesn't care & is rather desensitized (it looks like sociopathy but also lil different) as seen when she meets HL.
      B. Psychopathy is just outright weird as it lacks empathy and people with psychopathy just can't differentiate between emotional connections. This doesn't seem the case with sage as she does get affected but also is used to knowing that as a supe, vought owns her in private & in public - she has to act a certain way so she also struggles with control. Irrespectively it's possible that she's gotten nihilistic & using HL to destroy this messed up world that made her & feel like an outsider as she won't fit with supes nor the normal. In short, someone said it right that sage is highly likely to be the reason for HL's breakdown as HL is already disturbed whenever he fucks up or has things go south (like him worrying about a white hair).
      Strangely, kimiko is the opposite of sage - she can also regenerate & literally feels pain as she regenerates so her brain also does it like sage. Yet it seems like she has come to terms with fitting in & is so different now. I mean look at her caring about the team & obviously being so protective about frenchie as she knows she needs him to ground her & made peace with her pain. So season 4 is about to get pretty crazy and only time will tell 🤷🏽‍♂️

She's not just rationally intelligent, we see her utilize her empathetic accuracy every time she speaks with HL. She makes hand gestures, indicating neurodivergence, and the audience can subtly see her playing mental chess with each person she speaks with. She's the Luther to HL's Superman, I just think the roles are flipped.

    The biggest thing with her is that we have no idea how sincere anything she says is. Her comment to Deep saying he is superior could be a genuine belief but it could also be her attempt to manipulate him. Ashleigh's comments are correct so for Sage to just say I think your idea was good makes me feel she's just bullshitting. I suspect there will be a big reveal and she is playing a long game. Just a long shot theory but she could be the one who actually defeats Homelander, if she uses her role to access to research done by God U and the rest of Vaught into Supers she could actually create a weapon to neutralize his abilities.

    To do it effectively, you have to write in a way that shows understanding of intelligence and what it is. Imtelligence of a certain kind separated humans from the animals, so writers take higher intelligence to be "that which separated us from animals, but progressing further along that spectrum". They also are tasked with making something that entertains, so those things that would be a demonstration of higher intelligence, but are not conducive to watchability, never make it into the script. On top of this, a writer's own insecurities and the potential awakening of insecurities get involved when the natural consequences of ridiculously high intelligence are put on display.
    Intelligence is tricky to write about. We're all out here doing the best we can, presumably, so if a way of thinking is put on display as evidence of highest possible intelligence, we may feel punished for not trying to learn how to think that way and put it to use. People starve and suffer incredibly due to inadequacies in the effective use of our minds. To wag our fingers at ourselves or others for not pushing our mental abilities to their utmost can be emotionally damning.
    That said, I'd love to see a team of superheroes, all of whom have the power of superintelligence. We would see interesting overlapping and underlapping of strategies against villains, but also each other. The audience may then recognize how context affects the capacity to employ diverse intelligences, and how specific ways of thinking are directly available to those of lesser intelligence, but selfim put to use.
    Such a story could have a dynamic impact on the development of an audience willing to grow and change in response to the media they consume.
    Most likely, such a series wouldn't make it past the pilot.

    The problem with Sister Sage is that she’s only going to be a smart as they can write her. More realistically a person with hyper intelligence is going to be able to set things in motion so that she never dies or puts herself at risk.
    Why isn’t she super wealthy? Why can’t she engineer a new compound V that effectively makes herself immortal? She could engineer an AI that effectively controls the world on her behalf. I hope the writers come up with something good and reasonably believable.

    • @Costin_Gaming
      @Costin_Gaming 4 дні тому

      She's not just intelligent on IQ knowledge level, she's also extremely intelligent on an emotional level.
      Sure she could have done all of that and lived wealthy beyond measure, though it's indicated she doesn't care quite as much about those things as some do, as for genuine inventions? Again she could do that, though based on what we've seen she doesn't quite enjoy being hyperintelligent, who would ultimately?
      Being ostracized, being lonely is a fairly common enough experience for someone with a genius level intellect, arrogance too. One quote from Chernobyl sticks with me to this day: "To be a scientist is to be naive. In our pursuit of the truth we ignore how many don't want to hear it." Sage is even smarter than THAT, in that she isn't naive at all!
      Beyond all those wonderful things she could create for humanity? Why bother if humans are for her stupid? Why risk her life and potentially suffer immensely?
      Homelander changed the game for her, because he can protect her from ANYONE that can try screwing with her.

      The good news is that the base level of dialogue on this show is maybe 7th grade American gym school level, so the writers COULD write her up to their level - C student Emery English grads - and by comparison to the other characters she would be a genius. But they won't do that. Sage is written and is performed no different than Butcher, Homelander, Huey or anyone else. I take that back. She sounds way dumber most of the time.

      In the long run, survival. Because Homelander doesn't take no for an answer. And in the meantime, some fun with the practical use of power. Meanwhile, she has to figure out how to get rid of Homelander without him or someone else killing her. Now she has the opportunity to study the weaknesses of the entire "Seven" from the inside.
      With the Homelander dead, she must make sure Ryan doesn't go down the same path. All the more so since it is likely that he will be the one to deliver the final blow.
      For a certain time, she will most likely be satisfied with the role of oracle and gray eminence in one. (But it is quite possible that one day in the future she will decide to permanently get rid of her super intelligence. Simply because she will want to live a normal life).

We can gather that she's cynical and doesn't care about the world outside of retaining knowledge. Why gain extra powers to insinuate greed, when you can just manipulate people into becoming your weapon?

    Woke crap.
    Ever notice in every movie now they’re portrayed as brilliant, computer hackers or lead scientists?
    I have a hard time suspending disbelief for such character portrayals.
