Smart Enough to Be Wrong

“Overall, progressives may seem very ‘smart’ from the perspective of status quo credentialism. But they tend to lack experience where it matters most: history, economics, objectivity, incentives, genetics, unintended consequences, moral hierarchy. The institutional progressive culture’s ideology is not a healthy path to governance. It’s the path we’ve seen so prevalent in today’s popular social hierarchy. A path full of loyalty tests, state machinery and ultimately, unbridled tyranny. History supplies the repeating and rhyming examples, but it is easily and sometimes wilfully forgotten.” (08/08/26)
