This man is the incarnation of the western education system: Adequate memory, has read lots of material, but can't parse logic or determine necessary conclusions of premises. He is no doubt descended from common stock, with genetics optimal for labor, endowed with mental powers necessary to knock coal from the wall of a cave. He's a peasant, a normie, but the education system stuffed big words in his head where otherwise the space would be occupied by bird calls and mushroom foraging. He can regurgitated enough trivia to pass tests at each level of the dismal institutions we call schools, but his mind shows its fundamental weakness when put to a challenge, like a sleek race car with a little 4 cylinder engine under the hood putting slowly around Daytona Speedway. Notice he provided no arguments of his own, but referred to authority while accusing his opponent of doing the same. This is the eternal sophist, the weaver of sophisticated stupidity. No doubt every planet with intelligent life has an equivalent, a pervasive cosmic weed smothering the soil wherever the hopeful sprouts of enlightenment begin to show. Maybe this is the Great Filter of Robin Hanson, and the inane arguments and caustic behavior of these creatures push intelligent life to deaths of despair as an alternative to their insufferable presence.
