Why do I feel like I am an advanced form of intelligence trapped in the body of a human?

[Yep yep yep....]

By the sounds of things you aren't surrounding yourself with like-minded people. I suggest making your grievances a thing of the past by seeking out local societies that appeal to you. There are going to be tons. I recently joined my local astromical society and it's brilliant to be in the presence of people who are so knowledgable and passionate about the universe. I think that'd be a good starting place for you. You need some intellectual stimulation, it will make you feel less superior and also less alone. I know it can be difficult but know that there is good in the human race, you just need to keep your eyes wide open

I look down on the human race as well in some ways. It just comes with being an intelligent person. I would be embarrassed as hell if some alien race visited us and saw us killing for some liquid under ground to produce our energy, in a universe with infinite starlight.
Or the people of Africa starving even though we have an excess of food. Enough to feed 4 billion more people than currently living on our planet.j

Honestly, this sounds really cynical, but I separate humans into two groups. Intellectuals, and primates. I haven't any friends, (which sounds sad, but I'm indifferent to the ordeal) just because I can't be friends with someone as primitive as the majority of the population. I never cared for sports, and I despise most social networks. I'm only on twitter so I can follow NASA and Neil DeGrasse Tyson.

I am consistently irritated and slightly depressed just knowing I won't live long enough to see the human race ascend into true greatness.
We have to get through the stupidity one generation at a time. Hell, after the previous generation finally dies off, America will be almost half Atheist.

You have the “Cassandra Syndrome”. Mythical Cassandra was given the gift of foreknowledge and later punished with the curse of no one believing her warnings. The syndrome is the feeling that your group or you alone know the truth.

Society isn't advancing fast enough to satisfy your expectations, maybe they are just wasting away your potential and your whole life.

Things are happening, and will continue to happen but it takes time and the will of the public to support the things you would like to see made real. I know that can be very frustrating. You are correct in one sense in that between 96 and 98 percent of humanity, they don't have a clue what the world, the Universe, and what life is all about. They think they have freewill, but they don't even know just how controlled their lives really are. Research shows that out of 7 billion human beings, only 1 to 2 percent are the ones who make things happen and truly advance science and technology. The others, they do little more than put in their time and feed the system.
