    How much contempt do they have for the middle class if they think they need to use children's book inorder to communicate with the middle class

      Tijtij As I wrote above, if this is true, same goes for Trump.

      A large portion of political discourse from the general populace consists of one-sentence solutions to extremely complicated issues with some additional condescending language that the solution is incredibly obvious and that those that disagree are wrong, stupid, racist, etc. We (collectively) are already communicating at the level of children's books.

    Feel like you're being had? Don't be sad, don't be mad. The experts are in charge, be glad!

    Maybe communicate for non-violence and humanization instead of advocating for terrorism.

    This is horrifying. I do not want simpletons weighing in on economic, scientific or medical policy. They have no business doing so. What we need in the West is for people to either educate themselves to the point where they can constructively engage or defer to experts. The idea that Joe 6-pack should guide trade policy is insane.

      I agree, but Joe 6-Pack then feels left out. When you get enough Joes with that feeling, bad things like Trump happen.

      Yes but then they protest for an increase in minimum wage, while their purchasing power stays the exact same and think they've achieved what they've set out to achieve. At the end of the day, its a false victory and because they have no idea what their talking about they believe they've genuinely won.

    Engineers and scientists are experts. Soicial science academic professionals are mostly bourgeois ideologists. Guiding and maintaining the interests of the capitalist class.
