Intelligence and logic are not on the same road.

Intelligent people tend to think on a narrower path then the logical parson.

Well educated idiots everywhere are ruining everything.
People believe what they want to believe regardless of evidence to the contrary.

A general rule. But many believe what they believe because no one has ever given them an alternative truthful position.

“They may be intelligent but they have no wisdom at all.”
They may not be intelligent at all.. but rather they are clever ..like hillary...who..as a bonus.. is also driven by the demons that possess her.
The media works..again and again.. because all they have to do is convince other people who are dumber than they are ..that they are intelligent.

The Time article is very interesting. Good luck finding a passage like this in any modern critique of Naziism!
“Rant as he might against the machinations of international Communism and international Jewry, or rave as he would that he was just a Pan-German trying to get all the Germans back in one nation, Führer Hitler had himself become the world's No. 1 International Revolutionist—so much so that if the oft-predicted struggle between Fascism and Communism now takes place it will be only because two revolutionist dictators. Hitler and Stalin, are too big to let each other live in the same world.”

They’ve been hyping the narrative lately ... the aliens removed all the “bad” people from earth.

My best bud was raised to be a liberal atheist until he met me. Now he thanks me profusely every conversation but I refer him to God who really changed his heart.
This put him at odds with his entire family but they are finally coming around 2 decades later in a slow ripple effect.

People are “well informed,” so they are puppets of those who”inform” them.
People rarely ask if information they regard as “reliable” is really true, and the more they consider themselves “well informed” by “reliable sources” the less likely they are to question what they think they know.

A very good point.
Speak the truth often, camp if they have ears, else more on to the next.
