Truth is we don’t really need to see empirical evidence of measures of his “brilliance.” Fortunately, this guy gives us all the proof we can attest to whenever he opens his mouth.
How liberals can still find a shred of intellectual power in this savior of theirs says even more about their supposed intelligence to which the rest of us are supposed to aspire.
We all know, and I suspect many of of his own cadre, know he is a rather dim bulb being used for their purposes.
I just read on another post that when German scientists dissected Lenin’s brain, they concluded that it was not unlike the brain of a common criminal.
Liberals attribute absolute brilliance to ANY leftist in power. The reason for this is they get a sense of “brilliance by association”, or “I’m smart, too, because I support and agree with smart people”.
If they admitted that their leaders were no smarter than anyone else, they’d lose this sense of superiority by association.
Now, on the flip side, you have people like Cynthia McKinney, Sheila J Lee, and Marxine Waters as examples of some of the DUMBEST people to ever walk the earth and get elected.
And, when I asked my “smart by association” libinlaw if she’d ever heard of these people, she claimed she hadn’t.
Yes, the socialist Dr. Vogt (with his colleagues) said many odd things, but he did note giant cortical pyramidal cells, which he considered an explanation of V.I. Lenin's renown as a superior intellect. He also had other cortical observations, IIRC.
If you're interested, you should be able to get ahold of some papers on the topic that were published about 20 years ago. I don't recall much of them, but they were fascinating!
