    I’m not saying we don’t listen to people, or upend all social contracts. I merely suggest we gravitate to the learned and educated for their informed opinions, not whoever this pop sensation is.

      We will always disagree with who is educated and learned, especially given everyone we think ha s those qualities today will be the dumbest people tomorrow.

          Not really, we should come to our own conclusion regardless of what others say, especially in fields that cannot be solved or even partially explained by science, like politics.

            That’s a valid point. I got a buddy with a political science degree, so technically learned in this subject, and that guy is fuckin clueless.
