I think we’re seriously sick and tired of “intellectuals”, especially those who deem themselves to be so.

Yes, it’s “anti-intellectualism”. And we’ll define “intellectual” as Dr Thomas Sowell defines them - people whose sole “product” in life is ideas; ideas which the “intellectuals” themselves do not have to experience the consequences of...
“Intellectuals” whose worldview includes the idea that they are superior and have a right and duty to make decisions for other people...

Yes, we’re sick and tired of those people. Yes, we’re “anti-intellectual”.

We are, however, pro-achievement. We are pro-elite. We are anti-elitIST.

I have no intention of being “anti-intellectual,” and anyone who is proud of being so is part of our problem.
How dare anyone say that you have to be a dimbulb to be a “true” conservative.
