Peaceful rebellion

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'

Right? Wait guys?? Where are you guys going? -oh, ta geule!-hahaha--that guy has more money than you- -yeah!- -he's cute--come on Jacques, let's go meet him!-Oh, come on guys...I thought we were friends...I thought you were MY friends....fine, I'll go buy some new friends.
