I work with a guy who just told me that Antifa is an idea, and there is no leadership to it... I seriously don't know what the hell is going on with this world...how can people be so "smart" and yet fucking idiots?

Because they’re not “smart” or are corrupt. What does your friend do for work?
IT. (Powershell guru, and AD master) ex-military, realizing strong leftist ideology, but I don't hold it against him... much.

He’s trained to do tasks - that’s not hard nor indicative of intelligence - he uses tools he was taught to use in the way they were intended to be used.

That's how I feel about doctors - glorified mechanics.

I find that I’m usually smarter than most MDs I’ve met.

Don’t worry - I hear they’re about to do away with MCATs and Boards - both produce they inequitable results.

Might be glorified mechanics, but even grease monkeys have their uses.

Not smarter, have more common sense.

No - I meant smarter - and usually more common sense too.

I generally had higher grades at a harder engineering school where many MDs take cake courses at State U.

Yes - Orgi and B/PChem are easy compared to discrete math and comp E.

I tend to find those that spend more time in academia gain "knowledge" but in doing so removes the common sense that nature imbued us with.

My son told me yesterday, "I would rather follow a leader than be told what to do by a boss."

I had to do a double-take, I asked him what he means, because I was sure he heard that somewhere before.

He told me, that "A boss tells you what to do, a leader shows you how to do it."

My wife and I looked at each other and I smiled, because I don't know how many people can't tell the difference as they enter the workforce... my son figured that out at age 5...

A “leader” gets people to do what they don’t want to.

A leader leads by example, a commander gets people to do things they don't want to.
