yesterday you flat out said that letting educated people present ideas was a failure at best and bad idea at worst
Shocker but I did not say that.

true, those sentiments were on display on Tuesday, not yesterday
Alembik, a self-employed data and email services provider in Boca Raton who has had some Republican campaign clients, said it was unfair to call DeSantis a racist. Alembik, who has contributed $22,920 over the years to DeSantis, said there is a double standard when it comes to using the N-word.
“So somebody like Chris Rock can get up onstage and use the word and there’s no problem? But some white guy says it and he’s a racist? Really?” the 67-year-old Alembik said, adding that what’s considered racially charged language now wasn’t racist when he was a kid. “I grew up in New York in the ’50s. We were the k----. They were the n------. They were the goyim. And those were the s----.”
No, they weren't. And its just another example of you misrepresenting what I said. Expressing a general concern about rule by technocracy, is not the same thing as saying educated people shouldn't present ideas.
Im not necessarily disagreeing with you, but isn’t this too close to rule by technocracy? Can’t we empower working class people to be democratic and provide solutions that aren’t funded by a fucking think tank?
That isn’t to say we don’t need accountants or lawyers or other skills, but smart educated people have been fucking everything up. I don’t want to be governed by a bunch of Harvard assholes.
MIAMI — A Republican activist who donated more than $20,000 to Ron DeSantis and lined up a speech for him at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club recently called President Barack Obama a “F---- MUSLIM N----” on Twitter, in addition to making other inflammatory remarks.
Steven M. Alembik told POLITICO on Wednesday he wrote the Obama tweet in anger, that he’s “absolutely not” a racist and that he understood that DeSantis’ campaign for governor would need to distance itself from the comments — which the campaign promptly did.

Why does Obama invite this shite? Thanks Obama.

"I can't help myself. I don't know what it is about Obama, but the thought of him and that he was our President just makes me so angry! I've never been so angry about a President before. But I'm definitely not racist."
You know for somebody who is as forceful with their opinion as you are, you sure are hypersensitive.
Whatever could it be?
Do you think racists just legitimately don’t know they are racist?
