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!
