"One of the strangest dynamics of modern politics is that the richest man in the world chooses to get his information from grifting ignoramuses on social media."

Anyone with an ounce of intelligence understands that, when making decisions, good information is like intellectual gold dust."

On this, you certainly don't appear to practice what Klaas preaches.

Some of the biggest and most numerous grifters are the supposedly well informed, "unbiased experts" in academia, because their livelihood in most countries is entirely dependent on coercion through #taxes, aka "grants".

They do a lion's share of the brainwashing for any modern state.
