Lazy Elite Slobs

What happens when you can no longer have discussions with people who disagree with you? What happens when you lack the knowledge and depth of thought to discuss matters with others? In the case of our Elites, you scream slogans like, "Racism!"

President Trump's accurate portrayal of Baltimore as a rat-infested failure of a city was the stimulus. The Elites' response wasn't thoughtful, it was reflexive. "Racism!" When you think about it, that's not much of a surprise.

Our academic institutions no longer teach, they indoctrinate. Working with student activists, they ban conservative speakers like Ben Shapiro instead of engaging with them. That's the symptom of a larger disease. Our universities train intellectual weakness.

Like a gym with no equipment, but a big donut bar, what should be the training ground for our best thinkers is instead a training ground for mentally lazy slobs. I can't think of a singe legitimate response to Trump's accusations and all of his opponents were Elites.

Furthermore, almost no one in the media, also members of our Elite, pushed back on the racialist spasms of the left. The accusations were ludicrous, but because it reinforced by their own lousy mental training, they went with it.

When our universities close their minds, they make us weaker.

I'm betting Socrates, a white male of all things, never argued with his eyes bugged out like this.
