Academics are often the stupidest people you will ever meet.
Yes let’s hurry up on that legislation for red flag laws!! /s
ACADEMIC (ac-a-DEM-ic): An individual educated beyond his intelligence who is unwilling or unable to create or provide goods or services of value to others, who hides out in a college or university, pontificates and expects to be paid for it, usually from public funds.
From my personal observation, for each year of post high school education a person is exposed to, their ability to reason suffers more.
There are of course exceptions. I know some of them. Otherwise many of these folks won’t listen to reason at all. They are convinced they are right, and thus don’t need to.
The academic community has in it the biggest concentration of alarmists, cranks and extremists this side of the giggle house.
