They downplay the role of thinking, while telling us their “brilliant” thoughts. If thinking is so trivial, one wonders why we should even listen to, much less accept their theories. Such people should be shushed as soon as they say, “I think....”.

Maybe they only say this stuff and hope to make workers believe it. It is their only path, with their mediocre minds, to rule over those who have been given superior intellect.Look to where they want complete fairness, you see where they feel inferior.

I'll never forget being in grad school in 2000 when the professors were picketing for higher wages. Once, who had lectured me long about the desirability of "equality of outcome" then turned around and complained that professors at the school made little more than the groundskeepers.

I said, "I thought that was good. You know, equality. Why SHOULD you make more?"

He stammered that he'd worked very hard for his degree and ... and ... and THAT'S DIFFERENT! Then he ended the discussion and later told my advisor to rein me in as I was "too political." I left the program shortly after, having developed an absolute hatred of humanities professors.
