Quote by: Century 25 we live with a population of ever increasing.. dumb people. They simply have been disconnected from reality. They do not see anything more than what is shown them.

But, of course, some will just say you're being pessimistic, or practicing the politics of envy. Intelligent People talk about ideas, and, a sfar as I'm concerned, they need to go out of their way to seriously question power. Even a curosyr glimpse into human history should remind us of that need.

because I do so, I've been accused of practicaly every kind of political kookiness imaginable, including that:

1. I'm a totalitarian state communist
2. my philosophy means all human knowledge and creative instincts would somehow instantly be lost
3. I want a "hunter/gatherer" society

Then there are the attempts to sidetrack debate, where apparently people forget common enough words in the English language (like "what's a sweatshop?," or "what's self-sufficiency?").

I doubt I agree with every one of his views, but he is quite good at demonstrating political manipulation.
