Intellectuals read piles of books, went to top institutions of learning and want their opinions that are not tested and proven to be regarded as facts. Am not with this arrogance. One's quality of mind transcends academia.
In most cases, the fancier your education, the more likely you are to be wrong or spout out things you know nothing about. All of us have a very narrow range of intelligence.

Intellectuals with their fancy degrees believe there are problems in society ....
and they are the ones to offer the solutions to these problems. First of all, there are few solutions to problems, they are mostly trade offs. Secondly; just because you dominate the climate of opinions which eventually affects political and economic outcomes .....
with your nice English doesn't mean you have more knowledge than other people. Society cannot conform to your ideas and they shouldn't.

Intellectuals pay no price for being wrong. Look at the mess with handling of corona virus ...
The intellectuals told us to wear masks, sanitize, they even locked down the economy and now the effects are beginning to bite and it's not biting them but the ordinary Citizen. People have lost livelihoods, others are depressed because we had to listen to bandits armed ....
with a stack of academic qualifications who knew nothing about the virus. Sweden and Tanzania are laughing at us.

Many intellectuals have been told through out their lives that they are intelligent because they attended the best schools and colleges ...
and attained the highest grades and after a while they believe they are really intelligent. Ask any to provide evidence for their hypothesis and they invent all sorts of skills to evade empirically testing their assertions. Listen to no one, follow your intuition.
