You're literally defending anti-intellectualist dumbshits throughout the thread. Most of your posts are vitriolic. You came in here with an attitude, and when others called you out on it, you assaulted them with the same tired old thought-terminating cliches and personal attacks every anti-intellectualist abuses others with. It's old, it's tiresome, it's destructive, and you really really need to go do something better with your time on this earth than enabling people to be stupid with no social consequences.

The mark of an intellectual! Making bold statements without evidence then suppressing any discussion of that lack of evidence.

Maybe instead of bemoaning how little effort others are putting into understanding things, you should forge ahead with your own work.

It just means you’re tossing your hands up at the complexity of understanding something. Not a very disciplined approach to understanding for the 1% Intellectual in the room.

You're doing it everywhere. And you don't realize what you're doing because you don't think about what you're saying, and you don't think about what you're saying because you don't care about the truth. Like all anti-intellectuals.

Well, the rest of us do, and we have a country to run and lives to live. You need to go touch grass. We'll simply move on without you.
