Why? Because he thinks it's full of idiots?He's not wrong.
It's only part of my argument. I'm showing you that Democrats are not the saints like you want to believe. They're not perfect and their agenda lays with the same one Republicans have. They have these petty little fights to keep people entertained but the reality is they only care about themselves The rest of my argument was me taking the biased view that Democrats are the so-called bad guys here
He's an unoriginal, narrowly focused and arrogant one-trick pony.
That has nothing to do with his thoughts on the internet, but okay.I posted that quote because it's an accurate summation of the American political system, I don't really care about how original his opinions are or how much he hurts your feelings with his arrogance.
I should've made that more clear. Narrowly focused pertains to the Internet; he's really quite ignorant. Feelings have nothing to do with it. He's described the general population as the bewildered herd, and he's rife with contempt. I can see why'd you want to agree with him on that though, out of pure fear of intellectual inadequacy.
I can see why you're so willing to defend dumb people on the internet, you being one of them.
Jonathan Haidt came along a few years later and conducted a similar study within both America and Brazil. He found, in both countries, that the less educated and more destitute had a higher propensity to be sociocentric and thus moralise more (like claiming that cutting up the American flag is universally wrong). Whereas the more educated and more prosperous people were more individualist, and permissive of actions which violated social convention, but didn't harm anyone.

Another thing, it's kind of funny that the guy who wrote this has a problem with the general population being described as "the bewildered herd":
You are really fucking stupid if you think that's contradictory in any way.
I'll take "doublethink" for 500, George.
Not all the way through, what does that have to do with anything?
Yeah, Chomsky thinks people are stupid because they're being lied to, you think they're stupid because they're poor.I was kidding, but if you think that makes you come out looking better then sure thing.
That sounds an awful lot like a fancy way of saying they're stupid.
2muchjargon4meWhat are you guys talking about?
He thinks Chomsky is arrogant and is mad about the same attribute being applied to himself.
What attribute?I think I remember disliking Chomsky because of something stupid he said. He's the language guy right? I think I might be confused though.
Go fuck yourself.
Slightly less fancy, but more still more words than are strictly necessary.You're a mediocre writer, but you have the makings of a great politician. B+
