If you have controversial opinions, and are very, very vocal about them, you don’t need to be smart.

The trick is to regurgitate statements from whatever blog or YouTube channel memetically infects your gullible brain and present those shocking insights and absolute 100% hardcore facts as the product of your brilliant mind. Everyone else is doing it, so why don't you?

If anything this site is a good reason for requiring intelligence tests before voting.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

If you lose an argument claim you were just memeing, if you get warned claim mod bias, and if the whole thread is uniting to call you out for your behaviour write a report citing "harassment".
