    Well, if you’re a businessman, for example, what Trump said didn’t bother you. The intellectual class of no more than 2,00,000 people in the U.S. don’t represent everyone upset with Trump. The real problem is the ‘faux-expert problem’, one who doesn’t know what he doesn’t know, and assumes he knows what people think. An electrician doesn’t have that problem.

    I find this too be truly a problem. And advertising doesnt help the idea. Somewhere people stopped believing in common sense, or too lazy to have any critical thought and believing in any expert/priest that preached what they wanted. But advertising and its "expert" brand position annoys the shit out of me and does nothing good for society. Expert position and aspirational derivative propagandha are terrible. Its sad to see people cant even understand what theyre sold
