Which is worse, elitism or anti-intellectualism?
>>24796985George Gilder-NeoCon type Conservative intellectuals who advocated for neoliberalism is the worst of all. Everyone else is tame in comparison.
>>24796985depends on the other assumptions and givensin as much of a neutral vacuum as possible, anti-intellectualism is definitely worse
Anti-intellectualism by far. That primordial truth pepe we often see here is the cringiest shit ever. If the übermensch is so strong, why can he be oppressed by a cattle of sheep? Why have institutions, markets, ideologies, philophies or religions replaced fire, blood and steel? >but those things are more sophisticated manifestations of fire, blood and steelThen the picture is retarded anyway, pepe would be chopping himself.
>>24797032>cattle of sheep
anti-intellectualism and elitism are two sides of the same coin.
>>24797039It’s this simple OP. Did you even need to ask? Just be you. Either extreme is a forced cope for insecure fags.
>>24797038I'm ESL, kek. According to wordreference, cattle means a group of farm animals. What I said may be unnatural in English, though.
>>24797046You want 'herd of sheep' or 'flock of sheep'. 'Cattle' means a group of cows, as in 'He sold his cattle at the market.'
>>247969856/7
>>24796985both terms aren't very good and can mean vastly different things. especially 'anti-intellectualism'. are you talking about "curtains are blue" retards or fucking pol pot?
>>24796985Which is worse, philosemitism or antisemitism?
>>24796985I assume you mean intellectual elitism. And I am not certain that it exists anymore. Seems like it may have died out in the 90s/early 2000s. Anti-intellectualism seems to be alive, thriving, and growing.
>>24797002His views on feminism seemed legit despite the rest of his views aging like milk
>>24797220Depends on what you mean by anti-intellectualism. It shouldn't be confused with "common sense"
>>24797066I actually find a few of Pol Pot's talking points to actually have some merit.
>>24797226>I actually find a few of Pol Pot's talking points to actually have some merit.Like what?
>>24797224I tend to view anti-intellectualism as a hostility towards intellectual pursuits, such as reading and study.I know people who tend to rely on intuition and common sense, but are not against reading and study. I wouldn't consider them anti-intellectual.
