velu Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Probably most of the dumbest people i have ever come across are these so called left leaning intellectuals . Last week met few guys in one shady pub , and all are close to 30 or 30+ guys/aunties studying something like " MA Social Work in Livelihoods and Social Entrepreneurship " ( this i copy pasted from their FB profile ) ..

Stradlater Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 What is even more funny is seeing these leftists with humanities backgrounds self proclaiming themselves as the champions of science turning it into some pseudo intellectual BS.

Moochad Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 They tend to be insecure people who are desperate for attention and give themselves such a label to make themselves feel smarter than they are. Ask them for evidence for what they are saying and they will make all sorts of excuses for why they won't give it or will ask you to prove them wrong. They are the physical embodiments of the Dunning-Kruger effect Stradlater and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FischerTal Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 MA in gender studies or MA in 20th century European impressionist art are right now marching on streets for their student loans to be forgiven. I remember going to school with these *s. They Just write a couple of essays a week and then sex, booze and blaze on the streets for the rest of the week while my ass would be hauled up in a library reading science books 24/7 while periodically staring outside at the blue sky To remind myself that im still human. Screw these people. Your degree is worth nothing. Just wearing a jhola and screeching like a banshee at jantar mantar doesn’t make you an intellectual. It makes you an educated bhikhari!

coffee_rules Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Because academia is taken over by these left liberals who control the narrative.

punjabi_khota Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) It is fashionable to claim that left wing academics are mostly the ones studying "useless" things like sociology or gender studies. However at least in USA, it is a well documented fact that vast majority of scientists (hard sciences) lean left (~80%) http://www.people-press.org/2009/07/09/section-4-scientists-politics-and-religion/ Edited February 25, 2019 by punjabi_khota Alam_dar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could explain a bit. Are you being sarcastic? Learning Java/Python, in your opinion, is grounded in social reality? Or learning how a transformer works brings you closer to reality?

The ultra-left wing liberals are the biggest morons. How they talk and walk at the same time is a mystery.

Dil Dil India Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I must add: we must distinguish between social and economic left/right wing. Socially, I think most Indians - at least present generation - are left wing (open to same sex relations, not religious, etc.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dil Dil India Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Not sure who said that, but in general the ultra-lefties do useless degrees(speaking in a U.S context here) like lesbian dance theory, gender theory lol.
