Like you might think that abstract intelligence and social intelligence might carry over solidarity instead of making people more shitty in that regard. How does that even work? Why does people like that coast in life while those who they seem lesser than them suffer?
Smart people are good at talking themselves into things. And a lot of the time smart isn’t the only thing going on. How many ‘smart’ people will tell you covid is over?
One more thing to add is intelligence =/= morality.
Sure, it’s cathartic to call chuds stupid, but in real terms never underestimate chuds. Even with capital they still run circles around us in the culture wars.
